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’.

            Happy Holidays everyone, on my way to South Dakota for my friends funeral. I’ll be back on Christmas. And make sure and tell everyone you love em… and the ones that suck? tell em to fuck off. Life is just to damn short to waste the precious time.
