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’.

            mhking: Just damn. ahhh there are worse ways to go when your 97. Personally I’d choose the ‘Gagne sleeper’ over a body slam. The ‘Gagne sleeper’ was pretty much a rear naked choke.

            rrrick: (via theinternetaccordingtoadrian) I’m pretty sure that this pic is from The Billy Goat tavern in Chicago. The guy feeding the goat beer was the old greek owner, who is famous for trying to take his mascot, the Goat, to a Cubs World Series game. The folks at the stadium wouldn’t let the goat in even though the owner bought him a ticket… Well the old greek guy supposedly put a curse on the Cubs that they wouldn’t win a World Series ever again. AND THEY HAVEN’T Also the Billy Goat tavern was the model for the “Cheeburger, Cheeburger, Cheeburger”  joint from the old John Belushi SNL skit. They still serve cheeseburgers and there good just make sure and get a double. The place is also famous for being right down the block from the Chicago Tribune. Back in the day all the journalists would hang there while they waited for copy and rewrites. The place is plastered with old pics and articles. A must visit if ever in Chi-town.

            the great thing about the internet is that all the crazy shit I dream up while chasing the dragon… I google it, when i come too, and someone’s already done it.
