Here’s a question: What was the most epic unplanned moment you or a friend have ever had, where you came out looking cool? I’m talking about one of those perfect moments where life gave you an opportunity to take a bow.
I’ve had a dart in the bullseye and had my second dart lodge in the first one’s flight. It looks very Robin Hood, but if the first dart hadn’t gotten in the way, the second would have missed low.
One night when I was out with my sisters and buddys this wench from high school, we will call her mean bitch cheerleader number 3 said something really nasty about me at a bar loud enough for moi to hear.
I looked at her and said Tammy you used to be so skinny in high school what happened?
My Churchill moment….it was awesome.
As much as I hate to say something nice about my ex-wife, she nailed my sister-in-law to the wall the night after I proposed (New Year’s Eve 1999/2000). We brought my parents a bottle of Veuve Clicquot, which we had after the NYE party we all attended ended. Brut was served at the party and when visited my brother’s, my mom shared how much she liked the Veuve we had. Sis-in-law, a nice enough person when she wants but too often very snobby and pseudo-worldly from her Toledo backyard, couldn’t allow my mother to enjoy the moment, scoffed, “Oh, all champagnes taste alike.” My ex, not missing a beat, retorted, “Oh, sweetie, that’s just what the people who can’t afford the good stuff like to tell you.” My brother, who knew damn well his wife had been put in her place, couldn’t say a word, but the look we shared was all we needed.
“something nice about my ex-wife, she nailed my sister-in-law”
Until I read beyond that point, I thought this was going to be an entirely different story.
While she is no Future Mrs. V I have to say I dig Megyn Kelly. She is smart, funny, and to put it mildly easy on the eyes. I could watch her talk about anything.
Not to toot my own horn (actually, solely to toot my own horn) a short parody I wrote in the comments section of Kyle Smith’s blog made an appearance in a post of his today. He asked people to help parody a comment written by the newest troll Sol modeled after Dr. Evil’s childhood speech from Austin Powers. Anyway, shameless plug over.
There you go Eric. I’m acting as Hawk’s agent today.
This Sol guy sounds like a real tool…we have to get him to come post here. The combination of Rufus, Floyd, and Rich would have him sitting in his closed garage with the car running by lunch.
When I watch Lost on Wednesdays, I’m tempted to take notes so that I won’t forget anything I want to say on the Lost thread here.
That wasn’t a problem this week, because nothing interesting happened. There were a couple of good character moments, but it was just a blah episode. I was kind of grateful there wasn’t a thread, so I didn’t have to try to say anything.

Too many to mention. Escapade-wise, I have led a blessed life.

Or like I once said to a guy who told me I was fat, “Yes I am fat, but you’re ugly and I can diet!”
“Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clear to the bone.
Beauty always fades away, but ugly holds it’s own.”

Priceless, Eric!

Well, the ex sure as hell behaved like her father instead of her mother. I’ve shared too much…
No. Share more. Share more.
Got it.

LOL. I kept waiting for The Onion logo to come on, but this was not a joke.

Indeed, V, indeed.

As I told Rich many moons ago, I don’t deal with agents. Bill Lee may be a commie, but I like the cut of his jib re. agents.
Love it all, ‘hawk, ‘specially the Bryan Adams’ “five and dime.”
“Attention, Mos Eisley shoppers. Will all the green people please leave the store. Thank you.”
Allakin Sharptonosa is not pleased. Bring out the Tawanakan!!!!
I just heard that Fess Parker died at 85. RIP!
Here’s something new for your rim, Floyd:

Fess Parker? He was a childhood hero.
IMDB says he died of natural causes today. At that age natural is the usual way. He played sone pretty good characters, Davey Crockett among them.
where the hey is the lost thread this week?
It got lost!
In the queue listening to Emerson, Lake and Palmer.
“…the show that never ends”?
