going out with a 5' 10" Swedish chick this weekend. She looks like Ingrid Bergman in Casablanca. I think I'm out of my league.

No such thing.

Life lesson: never try to move to Nicaragua with a sick cat.

Our young fuzzy cat who has been in kidney failure since February can't get a rabies shot due to a compromised immune system. Try figuring out whether you can get him into Nicaragua without it. Go ahead, try. One consulate doesn't answer the phone; one speaks only Spanish; one says he's not legally authorized to do anything. I think we're down to convincing our vet to lie, or forging paperwork on our own.

On the much-needed good news side, his latest bloodwork shows great improvement after weeks of our giving him fluids and medication every day.

This prompted me to sit down and have a long talk with my cat today to manage his expectations.

eta - he said he has shots and is willing to move to nica with you.

I'm in for the cat, the Stoner Poodles, and the little dog that jumps straight up in the air.

What about the chickens?

I will take the live chickens, not the dead ones.

My wife wants to keep a couple chickens for the eggs. How hard is it to keep the little buggers alive with the cats and raccoons we have around here?

Seriously, it's a silly thing that several people I know are doing. If you'd like me to put you guys in touch with them, I will (they are good-hearted folks that are just doing a dumb thing).

I only eat eggs from beluga whales.

The only kind of beef I eat is from free-roaming cows (from an ashram just outside of Taos) that have died of natural causes.

I'm a super-vegan. I don't eat anything that casts a shadow.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

I named my last kid. Not sure if this is a boy or girl but will take input/ridicule on my current list:

Boy. First name will be John. Will he called middle name or a John abbreviation (jack). Current listings: Cash, Hendrix, Holden, charles, Knox. (I hate the last one)

Girl: lyla, Layla, Charlie, hazel, Hendrix, Ridley.

Will keep you posted.

More seriously, John is a great solid name, and Jack is a great nickname. "Cash" seems OK if he goes by Jack. Charles is nice and solid, too (but "Chuck" is not).I hate all the girls' names except Hazel and Ridley. Had a good friend recently name her daughter Riley, which I think is better than Ridley.

Named my daughter Merissa.

I never knew you were Asian.

JFC.

People on FB that don't get my shtick:

Woman I work with posts a pic of her family in front of the castle as Disneyland. I post "where is that?" She replies "seriously?"

Then today a female friend posts a pic of her and a friend at the top of the Empire State Building. I asked if she was in New York.

She answered with "indeed".

I'm wasting my time.

Just got back from my date. One thing you really can't tell about a girl from her pictures and bio is if she's deaf.

Ok, so she was only ~50% deaf in both ears, but she talked like a deaf person. At one point she asked me why I hadn't asked about her speech and I may have replied "because I don't really care." I guess I was the first guy she's been out with in a long time that didn't ask nice enough girl, but don't think I'll be seeing her again.

From Yandek's interview with Pat Summerall:

CY: You needed a new kidney to live and you did get the transplant, but how close do you feel physically before you got the transplant that your life might be over and that we might not be having this conversation right now?

PS: “Well, I didn’t need a kidney. I need a liver.”

CY: Excuse me. Yeah.

As a fellow partaker in such shtick, I guarantee you that there are indeed people chuckling at your antics, but who don't dare speak up. Still, it has to be for your own amusement and face it, you're having fun.

I regularly use your pop culture non-sequitur shtick (quoting close-but-not-quite song lyrics or movie lines or bands) and the indignant responses "correcting" me are are always fun.

Keep on keeping on, my brother.

I was a little disappointed that nobody other than Woz liked the comment from the guy correcting me on Bill Pullman/Bill Paxton on Independence Day.

I just posted "Where in France did you go?" to a picture of what clearly must have been Disneyland or Disney World, but my heart wasn't really in it.

What's the verdict on wearing baseball jerseys? I've always been anti-jersey, especially football, especially with a name on the back. But what about this? No name or number on the back. I've been wanting one and went ahead and got one. Will I regret this?

Serious question. If I keep it, what do I do with that big patch near the bottom? Can I remove that?

Not a huge fan of MLB jerseys as street-wear (and not at an actual game). Just my taste. Now if it was something interesting like a Japanese league team or something I can see it.

Also that thing is whiter than GM's upper thighs. Pretty much just a stain magnet.

I'd like to deposition Depp for his disgusting Lone Ranger decision.

"Kemo-Sucky"

I have a Padres road jersey of David Wells. Bought it after I saw him passed out at a bar in Ocean Beach. I only wear it to AAA baseball games and fishing.

No, of course not. My buddy says he saw an early release of it, but I'm 80% sure it's a fishing trip so I just keep responding with "nope" when he brings it up.

ex future ex mrs fish has four chickens. used to have five, but her daughter let one out and it ran away to become coyote food.

they're actually pretty low maintenance, and they'll eat any scraps plus the organic chicken feed (yeah, she's one of those). she's compared the cost of the food to the benefit of the eggs, and says it's a wash. she gets 2-3 eggs a day from them...but they stopped laying when the days got short, and she had to buy a light and a timer.

pretty simple to keep as long as you don't put a mattress on them.

I enjoyed that remark.

Watched a PBS show about Lewis & Clark. It's 15 years old and I've seen it before by gawd holy damn is it incredible how those guys pulled that off. Remarkable achievement. Also, they had a newfoundland named "Seamon".

Yeah, it's a big 'thing' here in Portland. My buddy built a coop and has a few of them now. We went over there and part of the entertainment was bringing out one chicken they called "Lightning", letting him go and then timing the kids to see who could catch him (her?) the fastest. I'm guessing this is what we did before TV and sex.
