“…And I Want Two Slow Dances With John McCain’s Wife.”

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

‘Nuff said - if you’re into that kind of thing. Here’s a skit from the ESPN Espy’s Award Show that broadcasted on Sunday. I’m choosing to believe that Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly ad libbed this skit, because they’re each funny enough to do it.

BPOW/Photo of the Week: BACON LV

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008

Both the Photo of the Week and the Bacon Product of the Week:

I followed this guy for 15 minutes to get a good snapshot of his vanity plate.

Dude, we love that you love bacon.

Unless you’re actually just a fan of Francis Bacon, which is still cool.

Jason from GorillaSushi:
“He might have wanted to memorialize the time he saw Kevin Bacon in Las Vegas.”

Heywood:
“Or maybe the guy is from the small Eastern European town of Bacon, Latvia?”

It’s “Gimpy the Snowman.”
Anonymously made on her front yard when she wasn’t home.

Photo of the Week: Starbucks What the F%$k!?!

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

Today I took this picture of a Starbucks . . .
FROM INSIDE A STARBUCKS ACROSS THE STREET!!!

San Francisco. 100 block of Battery Street near California Street.

I’m too cool to patronize a Starbucks, so let’s say I was in there to use the bathroom.

The Blogadilla Starbucks Challenge:
I will send a free Blogadilla T-shirt (when we get them made in the next month or so) to the first person who can send us a photograph with three separate Starbucks coffeeshops appearing in it.

Contest rules:
• Kiosks do not count, must be a full-fledged coffeeshop.

• They must be three separate Starbucks coffeeshops.

• You cannot use Photoshop, etc. - the photo must be untouched and all three must be clearly visible.

• It must be one photo, no panoramas (but send them anyway), or fish-eye lens shots.

• The photo must be yours and taken by you (not taken from a website, etc.).

• You must provide the specific addresses of the three Starbucks locations.

Photo of the Week: Statue Pickpocket

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

I’ve always hated clever statues of people in their native habitats.
I took this in New York City last month - a good shot of me picking its pocket.

Vulgar Note: Someone had taken a crap in the open bronze suitcase. Apparently other people hate this kind of art also.

Do NOT Turn Jesus On…

Do NOT Turn Jesus On...
Found on Flickr

As the author says, “Not sure who designed this, but I’m pretty confident they didn’t mean to make it look as if Jesus was showing his manhood to two children!”

I didn’t have to courage to go in there and meet Arreola in person, but I suspect she is tan and round and sensitive.

Saw both of these today:

Nail’n Joy, Full Service - somehow it just sounds dirty.

Praise The Lord Dental

I’m afraid to imagine the dental experience at this place in Harlem if I don’t praise the lord…

(Thanks Dominik!)

Picnic prep? I can only hope he has a napkin on the rear rack! Fruit/Pringles/Water

Perhaps not in that order?

Got GILF?

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

Saw this in a parking lot last week. Yikes.
Maybe it actually stands for “HOT GeRMAn.”

My grandma was never interested in being hot (thank God) - she just chainsmoked and complained about everyone and everything.

Not just for the survival kit anymore!

So each week I will attempt to do an interesting picture post from my collection. The story behind this one is coming up with fun incentives/bribes for our son to try potty training.
The latest was the glow stick! He loved it! Even made it to nap time, the normal soft furry rabbit got ejected.
