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 socks had become so tight that my awareness focused in upon all things like a laser I saw into the heart of god I laughed and cans of beer opened I cried and kittens fought one another to the death I looked around for everyone and they were all at some fancy ass church, dressed up and eating pretend ham sandwiches.  I got bored and wandered out the back door. A dog walked by and I followed it until I saw a small red kite rising from a large cardboard box in a back alley. The box had blankets on it and a chimney with smoke coming out.  A stooped old Asian man stood by its side and motioned to me to come - it was God. He inviting me in and we ate meatloaf with potato’s  and we had plenty of gravy. The gravy was really really good. And we prolly ate a little to much so God made tea and we laid down out behind the box on some old couch cushions. We shared some smoke and relaxed looking up at the sky. It was becoming night and we just lay there listening to the birds fuck and sing - this made us chuckle. “I’m glad all those other bastards aren’t here,” I sighed. And boy did that make God laugh. Then we made a good fire and god showed me a new kinda shark he was making.
