Ever have one of those days? Well, if you haven't had one lately, I had one for you. With interest.

Without going into detail, getting out of a bullshit speeding ticket was by far the high point.

I can't imagine going through watching my city just be flooded or flattened, particularly after just having moved there. I imagine episodes like some lost bar results will be a common feature of life there for a while. "Normality" will mean something different that it used to for some time, I imagine.

What are you talking about? Living in fucking Australia is liking having a Katrina every week. - except there's nothing to wash away.

A Katrina or Matilda. Or whatever gay dances you people have.

Jesus. Fucking Australia.




Wait a minute... this isn't my medicine. Shit.



Never mind.

Would it be wildly inappropriate to send my Rev. Horton Heat dipstick rag to a textile conservator?

Out on the road for forty days
Last night in Little Rock, put me in a haze
Sweet, sweet Connie was doin' her act
She had the whole show and that's a natural fact


Says my wife to me:
"You're just doing this so you can post about it in your journal"

Says I to my wife:
"Yes. Yes, I am. Nevertheless, I may end...

There is a house in New Orleans.

...with very little damage.

The Quarter got power today and hopefully we will in the next few days. Its very very odd here, in ways that I haven't really processed. Better and worse than I suspect can be imagined without seeing it.

Thank the gods...

... because truthfully, I had always planned on trashing the place myself.

max16characters:
well i hope this latest round of flooding didn't mess with your house too much but i don't imagine it would have if Katrina didn't really hurt it all that much.

More vehicular madness!

Location: BQE southbound for many many miles
Offending vehicle: I have no fucking idea. It started out life as something fast and japanese, but with all the marques removed and the bolt on farings and the candy apple orange paintjob, I really couldn't tell. It had 4 TV monitors, though.
Offending driver: Not Vin Diesel

Dear Fast and Furious,

I hate to...

Thanks for the post after my dad passed away. I appreciated it.

All I can think of right now is the beach scene in Apocalypse Now but they're playing When The Saints Come Marching In instead of Flight of the Valkyries.

Hot as bejesus today, I guess someone decided to stick to that whole "Its summer 'til the 21st" jazz. Fortunately, I rather optimistically bought clothes that I can wear in New Orleans in October, which is also hot as bejesus.

Went to SoHo without a magic marker today, came back with a tie and a wallet, just in case, and I got to shove a...

If you keep up the driving reviews, you can formalize your role as a critic. Then everybody will be entitled to your opinion, even guys with cars so old that their market value alone could buy and sell you a couple times over.

But why single out the LA bus drivers?

I've been in some odd places, both figurative and literal, in my life, but I'd never considered that I'd be so grateful to live near a photographic supermarket.

God bless the Circle Foods.

Wow. That's downright conveniently small.
thefreak:
As opposed to the Circle K?

I hear strange things are afoot there.

I'm ashamed to say it, but frankly retail therapy works as well as any others I've tried.

In other news, it is imperative that all the singing teddy bears be singing at once.
