Hookers or Cake

Where the self-obsessed get serious about silly
I'm too wacky to be hip.

    • ------------------------------------- How this blog got its name

      ------------------------------------ There was a large painting of Evel Knievel shaking hands with Richard Nixon. It hung in the Mayors office. Late one evening after everyone went home. I took it down to the lab. I zoomed in on Evel’s left eye a 100x and enhanced it. It was an address. I went to the address. It was a modest, 1970’s style, split level ranch home in the suburbs.

      ----------------------------------- Inside I found a dead parrot lying on a waterbed. I revived the parrot with some saltines and adrenaline. We became good friends. The parrots name was Randy. One night a few years later while Randy and me played Gin Rummy, he sang me a song about a fire. The title of this blog was never mentioned but I sensed it, and Randy confirmed it by giving me ‘THE LOOK’.

            My bestest friends for years, Jesse Hassler. He’s a bit of a recluse and he lives in South Dakota. He’s the painfully shy guy with a big beard that get all the great lp’s and comics at rummage sales before you do. He’s a damn fine cartoonist.

            thefuzzydave: This is a Congolese “Sapeur” - They’re gangs of men that spend tens of thousands of dollars on expensive European designer suits while frequently otherwise living in abject poverty. They have gang battles where instead of fighting each other, they have “Defi de Sape” - They go to another gang’s turf where their presence demands that the host gang run home and change into their finest suits to prove that they’re classier. Their gangs have names like “L’Association des Anglais” (The Association of Englishmen) and “Deux Grands Dandies de la Capitale” (Two Rich Dandies.) They are awesome. via mudwerks: oldauntamy: livejamie: I wants them specs.

            juliasegal: Coffee, tea, hot cocoa…during the winter I just want everything I drink to be warm. Is hot orange juice a thing? I wonder if it’s good… aint you ever heard of hot Tang girl?! I used to shovel sidewalks for old ladies when I was a kid and most of them would invite me in for some hot cocoa & cookies. One old gal, Goldie used to serve hot Tang.
