recounting

Last week went to see Jackass with fellow coworkers. We were to meet at the Bull and Barrel in Montgomeryville, PA. Got there. Closed! Left my car in parking lot with note on window giving our contact info. Drove with fellow coworker to alternate inebriation center. Happy hour yielded freebie finger foods. After an hour of ingesting noxious liquids and solids, departed for nearby theater. Old school. No stadium seating. We were practically the only people there, so there was an upside. My quick two sentence review? Sick and twisted, yet very innovative. I laughed plenty and enjoyed yelling at the indifferent screen, mostly begging ”PLEASE NO! NO!!!!!! DON’T!!!!’ and ”OH GOD EEEWWW!!” Altered state is important to fully enjoy this flick. Tell your friends.


This past Saturday returned to New York. Got tickets for $36 each way this time. Amtrak Window Lady has the hots for me. Arrived in Big Apple without agenda, but Oktober and QueenBeth were great conversationalists. Oktober takes great New York City pictures with her Sony digital camera. QueenBeth takes photos of the Big Apple like a professional with her Canon digital camera. Blame the weird wording in my last two sentences on Meta Data Strategy. More on that later. Stopped at Empire State Building. I was there a few weeks ago with the sis, so a return trip wasn’t exactly on my agenda since it is a fairly unexciting experience, although admittedly I have some cool photos from up there that I’ll share once I get off my arse. Met up with Oktober’s twin sisters and our final destination was set: Mars 2112. Hearing the theme to ”Amazing Stories” repeated 24 times while waiting in line outside was slightly excrutiating. Once we were in, the Mars theme was very much coolness. Ate space themed dead dolphin. Mahi Mahi is dead dolphin, or didn’t you know that? Please direct all Greenpeace inquires regarding the consumption of dead dolphin by The Super Genius to QueenBeth. Check aforementioned digital photos and you’ll see some pictures from Mars. ”Get your ass to Mars!” My favorite line from ”Total Recall.” Or was it, ”See you at the party, Richter!” I can’t decide.
