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’.

            I’d been instructed by the wind to construct a dream for my dearly departed friend.

            Here it is. I hope he enjoys it in whatever realm he is in.

            I awoke hearing a loud knock at my door. I peered through the peephole and spied priest in full regalia. He was decorated in white robes, the hat, the whole bit. I opened the door and the priest presented me with a covered silver platter, but I noticed something was amiss.  The hand that held the platter was black and rotting. I realized that this wasn’t the priests hand. The priests arms were bound to his side.  It was then I saw the giant black cloaked figure behind the priest reaching underneath the priest’s arms presenting me with the silver dish. It nodded and held the platter closer. I took away the lid and saw the hideous rotting face. The massive dark figure gestured again and I took the platter in my hands. It began to ripple and shift as if it were a strange soup. I looked again and now saw only my reflection. The platter was a mirror and I stared at myself out of it.
