Your Lousy July Blog Post
I'm
glad I decided to make this blog monthly. I'm sitting here on the
29th with a disjointed bunch of crap in my blog notes. I may have to
face the fact that my my mojo is on an extended vacation.
I
did have a great Father's Day earlier this month. It is, by far, my
favorite Hallmark holiday. I don't gotta do nothing. But my wife
was lucky that my daughter was home from school to split the duties.
I had no such luck for Mother's Day. I spent a lot of the day in
front of the teevee. I felt oddly compelled to watch the U.S. Open
for hours.
To
be honest, I have been a little out of sorts lately. Like many of
you, I've been preoccupied with the possibility of Eurozone
contagion. Recently it looks like they've made progress. They
better get their shit together so I don't have to work until I'm 75.
The
little man in The Chron is sitting up and clapping for Abraham
Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. I haven't seen it. I'm calling bullshit
nonetheless. After all, I was only one course short of a history
major. Here's a few other revelations.
Word
on the street is that Twitter will be increasing the 140 character
limit. What a godsend!
Anthony
Davis was trying to trademark some phrases associated with his
unibrow. Hey pal, just go get yourself a good pair of industrial
strength tweezers.
As
the sun set on June, so it did on the fairy tale story of TomKat. The
DJWifey fairy tale continues.
That's
the end of the disjointed crap. Now I'll talk about my pals.
The
Wigs were visiting from the East Coast. They had a nice Napa sojourn
and then spent time in Marin before gracing Pacific Heights for a few
days. That's where I caught up with them. We went to to one of our
favorite SF restaurants, Chapeau! Just as with our Inn at Little
Washington meal, we all got a taste of each others plates. My bud
Wig regaled the effusive chef Philippe with tales of his French
family. That boy can schmooze.
As
my deadline approached, I took a hike with my FC boys, hoping for
some blog morsels, but I came up empty. To paraphrase a James Taylor
song, "just yesterday morning, they let me know my blog sucked".
To be specific, the numbers were ambivalent, The Exec said "you
got a blog?" and TCG said "what's a blog?"
