I was watching a news report about the fires in California. Now, god bless those people and their burning homes but, not two days into this historical disaster does Pres “fly-by” Bushwack sign a bill releasing funds to the relief effort. While he has a pen in his hand, could someone please slip him a bill to release aid to New Orleans?! two years after the fact?! Does it take a scary, funny-talking, ex-Mr. Olympia Austrian hopped up on steroids and power to get Bush’s attention? It makes me sick to my stomach. I think sums it up:

We won’t let them roll the credits on New Orleans!

 

Just had to get a quick walk blurb in there, but didn’t want to take away from Brenty’s Birthday headline. Kisses

 

…and she needs your dough. I’m trying to raise $1000 by Sunday for the Austin AIDS walk, and I could use your help buzzards. Amber has made a generous donation already, and if any of you can spare anything, I would much appreciate it. We’re already at $850! The walk is this Sunday, and I’m leading the stretches and marching with Team Rebecca. If you can spare, please do…it’s to keep AIDS Services of Austin fully operational to those afflicted with this crummy disease. Go Buzzards!

And Bootsy too.

Donovan McNabb and Bernard Berrian miss you.

 

You played a guitar shaped like a star

and taught us all to love again.

 

Kid Rock was arrested last night for getting in a fight at a Waffle House just down the street from me. I live in a pretty gay part of Atlanta, so that must mean that Kid Rock is gay. But that’s his choice :0)

In other Atlanta news, I enjoy buying clothes for girls. But, being a single man, I often find myself purchasing clothes for my friends’ wives and/or girlfriends.

For example, Leslie wanted “nice, going-out” clothes for her recent birthday. So I spent a few afternoon hours at the mall and picked out what I think Leslie would like, but not necessarily items similar to what she already wears. I would consider Leslie’s style elegant-conservative.

I went with a silky, sleeveless, chartreuse blouse that has a sequined strap across the front. The color is more yellow that green and according to the hipster Express girl is the hot color of the season. It’s probably a little more daring and trendy than Leslie normally wears, but, again, I was trying to get her something just barely different than she already has. I also picked her up silky, black, sleeveless top with black flowers at the very top. I thought it was classy and could be worn to cocktail party, coupled with a skirt and sweater.

It did, however, look a lot more like lingerie when I gave it to her in front of a bunch of people than it did in the store. So I was a little uncomfortable.

My questions are:
A) Is it appropriate for me to buying clothes for my friends’ wives/girlfriends?
B) Why do you think I like shopping for girls clothes so much?
C) How many of you, boys or girls, would trust me to buy an outfit that you had to wear to a big occasion?

Thank you for your time.

P.S. Kent … If you feel like posting pictures of the items I gave Leslie maybe that would help people with their answers.

Happy birthday to my favorite bad influence.

SaintsFinally.

My friend Wes, a Bills fan, said yeah last night, “Yeah, you forget what it feels like to win, don’t you?”

Where was the team that showed up last night in our first four games? Despite making me really nervous in the fourth quarter with all the pass plays, we looked like what everyone expected us to look like.

Update:

This guy:

Hollis Thomas

Is quickly becoming one of my favorite Saints.  He gets fatter and fatter every game.  In a season that has been bereft of man-boobs without Bill Parcells, Hollis Thomas is filling the void.

 

It doesn’t seem fair that you two have to share a birthday post, but I didn’t want to put one first, or have one knock the other off the top.

Happy birthday to the two best dart players I’ve ever played against.

 

Let’s look at pictures!
