EAR PLUGS
Friday we headed over to The Otherside to shake our groove thangs and a change
of scene. Some band whose name I can’t recall was doing a wide variety
of slop 40 covers from the last couple of decades out on the deck. They did
it with skill but I’d forgotten what a bore a cover band can be. Inside
the DJ was spinning up a mega-redundant beat for moving your feet and the casual,
friendly crowd wandered between the two scenes doing what all people do in bars
everywhere - stare at eachother’s body parts. At one point a woman next
to me caugt me ogling another. She looked to see what had my attention then
turned back and said to me “Nice boobs!” I smiled and nodded my agreement.
But by 2 AM the joint was nearly empty. It doesn’t match the late-night
determination of the Backstreets crowd but it was a blast regardless.
BLASPHEMY
First we said “No no no, the weapons inspectors are not spies.”
Then it was “OK, so we used intelligence people but just ‘cause we
used spies doesn’t mean they were spyING.”
Finally we said “OK... they spied.”
I mentioned this to a girl at work and she said “Well DUH!”
INFRASTRUCTURE
For those curious about what happend with Degenerate Press’ vehicle, the
transmission is shot and will cost more to repair than it is worth, even if
we had the funds, which we don’t. We’re going to try to sell it to
pay off what we owe, plus a handful of quarters to shop for a new used car.
We’ve already mentioned this would be a good time to make an appointment
to see the award-winning metal sculpture and furnishings we have for sale at
the office...
