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’.

            Tomorrow I will be making the pilgrimage. I’ll be in Atlanta for work. There is only one thing/place I want to see while I’m there. Abdullah the Butcher’s House of Ribs This is no joke. The guy you see in the picture above has a rib joint in the outskirts of Atlanta. And I’m going there. They say that the Butcher himself is sometimes there… I’m thrilled I’m terrified. Of course I’ll buy a shirt but the real question is, do I eat there?
