Fresh off the grill

A couple of weeks ago was Kelly's parents anniversary party.

There were a lot of things that could have been the highlight of the night; - The older woman telling some guy about how she does strip aerobics as her husband walked in, sitting down beside her, - Pauly(no mafia) attacking balloons, yelling, & starting to strip, - comments from Kelly about a woman of P. Curtis type, - Vanessa dressed as the Hamburgler.

But the highlight was Kelly's uncle David (aka Ron Jeremy look a like).
He had by far the best dance moves I have ever seen in my life, both in person or on tv.

Decked out in classic late 70's/early 80's attire ( striped red/white shorts, numbered shirt, not mesh) and had moves that can't be put into words. The best way to explain it was a combination of his upper body twisting to one side while his legs were going in the other direction, the knees doing a thing of their own. He could teach classes on how to do this shit.

All in all, it was a pretty solid event, I finished off my night of rum&cola + Ultimate Prince Igor with a couple pieces of cold KFC. I forgot how good that is after drinking, and how much a mistake it is for KFC to be closed when the bars get out.

I don't remember too much from the week. I kicked off this past weekend Friday morning with a 6am jog downtown. It was pretty calming running down there early in the morning with some music, if you can put up with the smell of shit coming out of the sewers & the 3 old people who drive around town at that hour.
I had a flock of seagulls follow me for a short bit through the Ritchie Wharf parking lot, thankfully none of them shit on my head.

Friday night was finished off by a couple of hours worth of looking for something outside in the rain in thick brush, I cannot go into further details of what that item may or may not have been.

Also Friday I received my acceptance letter to the APA for January. That means 5 months left before I become an official adult, 5 months left for drinking adventures, followed by 35 weeks of hardcore training, no alcohol.

Saturday I slept most of the day, highlight being a visit to BK where the following phrases were said to me; - "Nice Ride" - "Here you go, fresh off the grill"
I will admit it was the best BK Quad Stacker I've had yet. This thing had a whole layer of bacon, I'm sure they put half a pack on it, and triple the cheese.

I woke up this morning to watch the F1 race, followed by a few more hours of sleep.

Monopoly has finally arrived in the year 2006, getting rid of the money, in exchange for debit cards.

This is long over due. One of the biggest reasons I don't like the game is having to count, & we all know someone who cheats with the money, usually the person who is overly anxious to be the banker. This will also make it easier to drink & play, which is really the only way I like to play.

- Captain Bee's Blog. By far the best blog I've read in a long time. An anonymous blogger from the U of Windsor. I actually sat through reading back to the beginning & have copied a couple pages worth of posts to notepad for printing.
One of my favorite entries is Random Thoughts from Christmas Mass

First of all, congratulations on getting accepted to the APA. I am not sure what exactly the acronym APA stands for, but am eager to hear that it stands for the "Aspiring Perleys Association". The first credit course is "Caring For Your Purple Tracksuit" I hear.

To comment on the paragraph about the jogging, was that an on purpose reference to the band A Flock Of Seagulls, and I Ran, or Jogged in this case?

I think the introduction of debit cards to Monopoly will still not get me to play the fucking game. They should make a board game about the price of gas called "Bend Over And Take It".

In closing, that was the first I had saw of the merrygoround and the motorbike. I agree, the ending is intense. I wonder if they died?

- that would be a good class to start at mvhs, it could be another option when selecting cooking or shop. now you can select to learn how to be a pervert.

- the flock of seagulls reference was not planned, i didnt notice it until later, i enjoy when such 80's references slip in without planning.

- i usually give up on monopoly after a few minutes. the real game to monopoly is being the one who claims the car place holder first.

- there are a lot of comments floating around that the kids died, some say they were okay though. im hoping there is a follow up video soon that shows the aftermath, probably of them in pieces on the swings.

Good point on the Monopoly. I believe there have been several occasions where I refused to play after not getting the car as the token.

i remember one time when i was younger someone else got the car, so i went and got a micromachine to use, those things were deadly if thrown, and easily swallowed.
