First out that is. Which is dart lingo for last place. So, I went from first to worst in less than 24 hours. And that is just the luck of the draw.
In a doubles tournament, your partner is selected randomly. So you take what you get and make the best of it. As an experienced player, I certainly understand and accept that sometimes your partner will suck. Actually, when I draw an inexperienced or weaker player I’ll try to mentor them some if they are receptive to that. Otherwise, I shrug it off and just try and have fun. There is one exception to that: I despise having a drunk partner. I wrote about Pierre, a fucking drunk from Sweden, I drew as a partner last month. Yep, you guessed it. I drew him again last night. So drunk he could barely stand. One out of three of his throws didn’t even hit the board. Seriously, who signs up to play in a dart tournament in that condition? Oh well, he gives new meaning to the word loser. For example, this morning as I’m walking I pass by Johansson’s and Pierre is sitting at the bar, drunk. At 9:00 a.m. He probably never went home last night. Glad I’m not him!
At least my early night was not a total waste. I had this waiting for me at home:
Here’s today’s “interesting” photograph:
And in a Back to the Future moment, I found myself walking tomorrow’s Hash trail this morning:
What else is going on? Well, a case of the virus epidemic has struck closer to home.
The virus has made it’s way to my province of Zambales though. Still far enough away to not make me feel threatened, but still too close for comfort. I doubt with my diminished lungs I’d survive an infection. I’d keep my fingers crossed, but then I wouldn’t be able to finish this blog post.
I think I mentioned that I sponsored a hole for the VFW golf tournament fundraiser. Here it is:
This evening I’ll be attending some other VFW Beach Bash events. No darts tourney this yeat though. I’ll try and get some pics of the Miss Beach Bash beauty pageant for y’all.
One thing I like about my house is I’m walking distance to the bars. But coming home always seems to be a longer journey.
That’s all for now. Well, here’s one of my favorite music videos:
That’s right up there with SNL’s “Dick in a Box,” that is.
Thought geriatric hash was medicinal marijuana. Also it seems like you have serious Pierre problems.
There you go. Two for the price of one, doesn’t get much better than that…
Well, that kind of geriatric hash would put me in prison and subject me to a whole other kind of “Pierre” problems…
