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’.

            The first music I ever heard, or that I remember hearing, was country music. It was in Tom’s Cafe, the bar/cafe across the alley from the house I was born in. I was three yrs old and hung out there a lot, because old Tommy Burke would feed me pancakes. I remember eating pancakes in a wooden booth looking at a red white and blue PBR swag light hearing a man sing about blue eyes and crying rain.
            I’ve always meant to see Willie play live but I never got around to it or it was too damn expensive. Well, I looked up tickets again and old Willie is playing just down the street from me in a few weeks. And cinching the deal is that he’s playing with Merle Haggard.

            thedailynoose: In an effort to mobilize younger voters the Obama administration is reportedly considering legalizing Marijuana. “People are just not as excited as last time, and the more younger people that get out to vote the better it will be for us and the future of America,” said Vice President Joe Biden on a campaign stop in a Waffle House in North Carolina, late Friday night/early Saturday morning. Plans have even gone so far as to draft a legal ‘420’ tender. A currency that would be solely for drug procurement. It would be worth $80 dollars American or 4 x $20 and be able to be traded for “a quarter of pretty decent shit,” according to unnamed white house sources. The currency would feature a picture of famous cannabis advocate and everyones favorite pot head, Willie Nelson in front of an American flag and state on the back, “In Willie We Trust.” Jade Bos of Hookers or Cake for The Daily Noose
