New Book

UPS just dropped off the latest Alan Dean Foster book. Hell yeah. I have been reading the Pip and Flinx books since I was pretty young, and always look forward to the new ones when they come out (which is not often enough).

Daily Maintenance

We all have certain things that we do every day in order to maintain. You know, brush our teeth, shower, clip fingernails, etc. I hate trimming my toenails. Don’t know why. I do it once every couple of months whether they need it or not. I just finished with that chore (slow blogging day) while watching Tank Girl, and I just gotta say goddamm those things were huge this time. Tear thru your socks scratch yourself in your sleep huge. They were so fucking big if I had my teeth in I would have had to chew on one for awhile just to savor it.

Look for the wet spot

It was pretty slow today at work, so I had my hostess go in back and get some of the afternoon prep work done. She is a large gal, and right in the middle of making up a bunch of waffle batter she stops and announces to no one in particular “I am going to be covered in flour before I am done”. That fucked me up for the next two hours. No matter what I did, all I could think of was that old bit about Roll her in flour and look for the wet spot. God I can be a bastard sometimes. If I were a real asshole I would have passed along THAT nasty visual to one of the guys that works for me, but that is the kind of shit that gets people fired for sexual harrasment.

Still can’t get that fucking picture out of my head.

Oyster fix

Reading this post over at Acidmans abode got me thinking about oysters, which immediately led to road trips.
It was back in ’85 or ’86, when I was at my utmost unemployable, irresponsible (I was 17-18). One of my good buddies had a dad who was a VP of sales for IBM. Me and a couple of other guys lived at their house. No jobs (maybe occasionally, if we were really cash-strapped). Didn’t need them since Mr and Mrs C took care of the food thing, as well as gas. Chicks took care of the rest.
It was mid to late November, about 4pm on a shitty winter afternoon, and we all decided that we needed raw oysters. Not to fuck around with that frozen shit in Atlanta, but real raw oysters. So we made the drive to the redneck riviera (Panama City Beach). The Oysters were ok, but it was the TRIP that was so fucking cool.
I travelled the eastern seaboard and southeast several times during a four year period before I settled down. Roadtrips were a hell of a lot more fun in my teens than they are now, that’s for damn sure.

I don’t usually tell blonde jokes, but this has got to be the best one that I have ever heard.
