And why should I care? That’s why I like hanging out at It Doesn’t Matter.
Sorry, nothing significant to report, not that that will stop me. I’ll keep it as brief and picturesque as I can, though. We’ll kick it off with the Friday group hike. It had been a rainy night, so we wanted to keep things on the level. Street walks do tend to be a tad on the boring side, but we got a change of scenery by walking seven kilometers FROM Waltermart to Barretto on the backroads. Here’s some of what we saw along the way:
Back at home and hungry, and Swan served me this:
It was better than the burritos I make. I had her make me another one after this morning’s walk.
Once again, I chose not to attend the emaciated version of the SOB dance competition. I hear that once again, almost no one else went either. The news now is that the final SOB show will be held in two weeks at Wet Spot. I plan to be there for the funeral edition of this twenty-plus-year weekly event.
I got a haircut, then we hung out at It Doesn’t Matter before heading to our nightcap at Green Room. Exciting shit, eh? That’s just the way I roll.
I’ve progressed to September 2013 in the LTG archives, and in this post, I tell the story of my chance encounter with a star in Prescott, Arizona. Ah, the memories of days gone by are part and parcel to being an old man.
In today’s YouTube video, the sexy Filipina Pea talks about getting fucked. Sadly, it is YouTube doing the fucking. I honestly don’t understand what’s up with that; the Pea is not political or even controversial. I’d noticed that her videos are no longer showing up in my feed, but I just figured she wasn’t posting as often now that she is in the USA. Henceforth, I’ll make it a point to look for her videos on a regular basis.
To the humor we shall go:
I hope this post wasn’t too painful for you. Hearing the Pea talk about how boring some vloggers are when they incessantly talk about the goings-on in their lives made me think, ‘Good thing she doesn’t read my blog.’ Well, it is what it is. We’ll see what happens next.
You’ve gotta do something about that studly looking Gary fellow.
With his rugged muscular physique and baby face, he’s relegated you back to being the *second* best looking Gwapo on here.
Playing second damned fiddle on your own damn blog, dammit!!!
Nobody puts John-John in the corner!
Let knuckle sandwiches be the order of the days, dear sir.
(By the way, I am currently taking a shit – since you asked!)
Since I grew up with a Korean mom, moving to Korea generally wasn’t a culture shock for me. But there was this one time when I conversationally asked my Korean EFL students how long a woman was pregnant for, and they all confidently replied, “Ten months.” I was floored. Later on, I realized that they’d been thinking in lunar months, not solar. Do the math. It’s close.
RE: 13 month calendar.
It is called the “International Fixed Calendar”. It does make a lot of sense. Obviously 28×13 =364 so there is an extra “holiday” day at the end of each year. Leap year follows the conventional leap year currently done.
I believe it was Kodak (either Eastman or Kodak) who was a big proponent of this calendar and it was used at the company for a long time.
re: SOB contest
Not a surprise that it is on a death spiral. Maybe hold it once/quarter or once per half year to keep it fresh. Every week for something like that becomes boring.
Thanks for the kind yet honest words,Maurice. Many people strongly suspect I use moisturizer but I really don’t (my skin is natural).
When you are young, six months seems like a lifetime. When you are old six months seems like a weekend.
Have a good weekend, men! May your lives flash by in the blink of an eye.
Gary, it sounds like true love.
Brian, it makes a lot more sense than the standard calendar, but I guess it would disenfranchise all those folks born on the 29th through 31st.
Yeah, it was weakened without Hot Zone and losing Alaska was the death knell. I only attended once a month or so, but that special occasion marketing would have helped. Also, they could have tried to add some of the newer bars in town like Red Bar and Nipsey’s. We’ll see how this new Battle of the Bars thing works out…they are going with a quarterly format and expanding the number of participating bars.
Kevin, it’s not surprising that I was a total dunce about these calendar deviations. I noticed that holidays in Korea were never on the same dates, so that explains it.
Maurice, do you speak of the pompatus of love?
