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 pine for a simpler time. A time when a man could spend all afternoon in a tree, perfecting his Chewbacca roar, and not get arrested. - Henry David Thoreau

            Egan denied hitting the man with the steak but did admit to slapping him, saying she did it “so that he could learn.”

            Learn to get the fuck outta Florida.

            also did it say what kinda cut the steak was? I wouldn’t press charges if it was a nice tender rib eye, but a sirloin or a strip? Thats aggravated assault.
