Dance

Dancing. Thats one skill that I never mastered. When I was younger I was a black hearted metal head. Then I progressed in to dark indstrual music NIN, Front 242 so again no dancing required. Lots o time in the mosh pit. I actually tried to have a gay freind of mine teach me to dance. We went to a gay club and I tried not to dance so much like a tree. It didn't quite work. Some day I may actually take salsa dancing. I found this photo when looking for ones featuring dancing. I laughed and realized thats me If I were a MoshGrrl. The look of fear in the guy behind her is awsome.

I love Calvin and Hobbs. I enjoyed this photo of Spaceman Spiff. No pills , no sad stories just a nice photo.

You might have seen this before, but you know I like to post monkeys.

Booked

Finally booked some vacation time in Puerto Rico. I am sooo looking forward to it. I have an Aunt that lives out side of San Juan that is very excited to have us down there. Shes visited here every couple of years and stayed with my parents, now I'm going to visit her. We had to coordinate some days with her. The funny part is that I hate the heat, not too fond of the beach and can't swim very well. Where am I going ... to the beach on the ocean at the start of June. I'm so looking forward to the food. Fresh seafood, spices, dark rum drinks, roast pig, fresh mangos. Already licking my chops. Its a month away so I'll be pinching a few pennies til then so I can spend it foolishly. - Peace

Old San Juan

Tis the season......

Ah Smelting season. In Chicago there is a tradition that goes back a long way. That Is the Smelting season April 1 to 30 after dark) . The Smelt run at this time to breed near shore. Fishermen set up nets lights and drink beer while waiting for these fish. Im the past there are pictures of men catching huge hauls of smelt. In the past 10 years of so I and my friends have gone. We set up the nets, lights, fires (Chicago in April is freeking cold), and we drink till way too late. We never expect to catch any smelt any more , now its an opening of the spring season. We have the first bbq of the year there. Hot dogs, wings, hot links and I make my arracherra (skirt steak in a lime chipotle sauce) thats what we feast on. It use to draw big groups of friends. Its has kinda dwindled to a few die hard few. I always go (thats a given). Once there used to be a title of smelt queen, but alas I fear that those days are over.

Childhoods end.

I saw this and it made me sad today. Every day my boys are growing up. Every day they are becoming men. Some day childhood will end and you stand there and say "What the fuck!". I try to keep the innerchild alive. Its funny- When I was growing up I did not see too much of my father. He worker 3rd shift and slept in the day time. My Uncle was the main father figure in my life. I Miss him. Now that i have boys of my own I see how much fun he (my dad) has with them. Im actually kind of jealous of them. My dad giving them horsey rides. Hmmm I try to play w/ my monkey boys when ever I have the chance. We play -zombie, robot, monster as always I'm the "bad guy". (its my natute I guess. Hey if this rambling post makes no sence don't worry about it. Its all kid stuff.



The way I'd rather remember them. I hate the Calvin pissing on ford,chevy window stickers. It's so declasse'.

Just a simple monkey to start your week.....

OK, THE quote of a life time and I forgot it ...........

Beer Quotes

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some times I just like going out for a beer with a friend.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sometimes when I reflect on all the beer I drink I
feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think
about the workers in the brewery and all of their
hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they
might be out of work and their dreams would be
shattered. I think, "It is better to drink this beer
and let their dreams come true than be selfish and
worry about my liver.
Babe Ruth

I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they
wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're
going to feel all day.
Dean Martin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up
reading. --- Paul Hornung
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not.
L. Mencken

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk, we fall asleep. When we fall asleep, we commit no sin.
When we commit no sin, we go to heaven. So, let's all get drunk and go to heaven!

George Bernard Shaw
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be
happy. ---
Benjamin Franklin

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Without question, the greatest invention in the
history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the
wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza.
Dave Barry

BEER: HELPING UGLY PEOPLE HAVE SEX SINCE 3000 BC!'

To some it's a six-pack, to me it's a "support group." Salvation in a can!

One night at Cheers, Cliff Clavin explained the
"Buffalo Theory" to his buddy Norm: "Well ya see, Norm, it's like this. A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine! That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers!
