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’.

            9:23 AM Tuesday - Miami International I made it to the Airport on time. I had a little trouble getting through security. It seems that I had a bottle of English Leather and a flask of Macallan 12 yr scotch that were over the 3 oz liquid limit. Thinking quickly and not daring to waste good scotch, I downed the Macallan and dosed myself thoroughly with the English Leather. I then held out my cigarette and grinned at the nice security lady  “You gotta ashtray Hon?” I winked.  After the subsequent interview and stripsearch, I found myself pressed for time. I had to sprint all the way to my gate, with shoelaces untied and my belt unbuckled. I felt like John Kruk rounding 3rd on a single up the middle. I became lightheaded and out of breathe. I needed air but all I could smell was English Leather & scotch. It was as if I was being suffocated by James Garner. that was my first heart attack.

            1. said: Thought I would post a pic of Kruk to enhance the visual of the run through the airport. I’m pretty sure that they based the guy in “Eastbound and Down” on him…
