A nice bottle of Double Diamond Meritage, some Lincolnshire poacher cheese, and some La Brea Bakery sourdough.
My business plans for the next century are available for all on Content Goes Here.
There are some great ones in Southern California, especially the ones built in the 1970s.
I HAVE NOT YET GOTTEN HEAD FROM ANYONE ON FRIENDSTER AND THIS IS A CONCERN. DESPITE MULTIPLE EMAILS I RECEIVE NO SATISFACTION. PLEASE RETURN YOUR WHUFFIES BY THE NEXT POST.
ALSO THE PERSON ON YAHOO! MESSENGER WHO SAYS SHE’S A SUICIDEGIRL HAS NOT YET MET ME AT THE COFFEE BEAN & TEA LEAF AND I SUSPECT SOME INTERNET TRICKERY OF UNKNOWN TYPE.
ALL IN ALL THIS WHOLE INTERNET HOBBY HAS PRODUCED A LOT OF COREDUMPS AND NOT MUCH IN THE WAY OF SWEET FLOWING BEAUTIFUL LOVE AND IT’S CLEAR THAT IT WAS OVER PROMOTED. I SUPPOSE YOU THINK YOU CAN JUST GET AWAY WITH THAT DON’T YOU.
SIGNED MORNING WOOD IN CALIFORNIA (PLEASE DO NOT USE MY REAL NAME WHICH IS ABDUL MCKINNON).
P.S. I TAKE BACK WHAT I SAID IN THE OTHER EMAIL ABOUT YOUR CREAMY, SMOOTH THIGHS
My Kanadian Kommute in Southern California today:
1) On the radio, Dan Aykroyd screaming “I love my COUNTRY! I love my FLAG!” at some shindig in Toronto.
2) A car in front of me on the freeway with a bumper sticker that was made to look like a strip of film, with the Canadian flag crossed out and “GOT WORK?” on it. Someone is pissed about all that filming up north.
3) I was cut off by a guy in a big silver Mercedes SL 500… with Québec plates.
Next door to the coffee house is a strip mall. In the strip mall are a couple of decent places to eat, a tanning parlor, the usual frozen yogurt place, and in the last year or so a wireless phone shop. This place is run by some fast young good-looking types and they have a promotionally flagged Humvee with the company’s name on it, etc. They hang out in the Napa Valley’s sports bar a lot.
A couple of the waiters at the Napa discovered that the wireless bro-guys had made a rather strange promotional item for their store. An item that pretty much sums up “bling bling”. So, of course, it was acquired. So, of course, I got a shot of one of the waiters wearing it.
In American middle-class society, there’s a list of things that are valued in the abstract and ignored in practice. Let’s call them Institutional Hypocrises. Most of these totems are foisted off on children, including religion, the environment, and good nutrition. Adults avoid their churches, pollute, and eat chee-tos. Children are expected to go to Sunday School, take part in ecological cleanups, and eat “right”.
To this list we should probably now add literacy. My library employee friends locally tell me that the library is now a Blockbuster mostly. People check out videos like crazy, and the books gather dust, except for the childrens books which are constantly in demand.
So now that I am a man, I suppose I should put away childish things and stop honoring my God, stop recycling, eat more chocolate pudding and less bran, and watch “Elimidate” instead of re-reading Joyce. I’m such an immature disaster.
I just saw an ad on TV for the glories of Springfield, MO as a tourist destination. The ad told me to go to http://www.springfield-fun.com/ and you should too. Then, click on the “Things to Do” link.
Edit: I noticed that you don’t get the funny when you click that link in the left navbar, only when you click it in the main body frame.
I went to my local Ralphs “Fresh Fare” supermarket. I got some staple foods, the usual stuff. And wandering back to the register I passed the display for the Boar’s Head deli stuff. Boar’s Head mostly makes overpriced lunchmeat, which is fine as far as that goes. Now they’ve branched out into highfalutin cheese. I like cheese. They had a number of things that looked good, including Double Gloucester which is one of my favorite cheeses. Imported from England and everything. Yay, I said!
I took it home and opened it up. As far as I could tell it was the blandest, mildest California “cheddar” or Colby or Longhorn. Totally flavorless, waxy rubbery texture. Not Double Gloucester at all. It was, in fact, cheese fraud.
Boycott Boar’s Head!
(This is a cheese shop, is it not?)
