Stoked Straight A's

I am so stoked... Finals over and I have straight a's for the first time in my life. Perhaps it is that I am very suited and passionate about culinary... or just that going back to school I have set goals of no lower than a's... But I have one quarter done and down...

The pic is a seafood and lamb gumbo I threw together a couple weeks ago in class

Finally a decent shave

So after much hatred of the whole shaving thing. I gave up on the mass produced 1/4 of a million blades per head vibrating motorized new greatest thing in shaving.

I bought an old style Merkur DE type razor. These are the type you used to see on your father or grandfathers sink. A single blade in a metal holder.

The shaver itself ran me about 50 bucks, by the time you add in a couple packs of blade and a blade safe <for the safe disposal of the used ones> it came up to somewhere around 60.

The first time I tried it I fully fucked myself up... blood everywhere. I found out the hard way to use one properly takes information and the right stuff.. So back to researching. It was well worth it. This morning after only about the 5th try not a speck of blood, no razor burn, not painful scraping of my rather thick beard. On balance not bad at all.

Huge advantages. After the initial outlay rather than 20.00 for 5 cartridges it is 6.00 for 10 double sides blades in essence 20 sides. I don't feel like my face has been scraped with a kitchen knife. I have to slow down and think about what I am doing <almost a zen component.> Finally I am not tied to the latest gimmicky piece of shit they want to sell me.

Viva Las Vegas

So after 27 hours straight in the car, with 5 cats and a dog, we rolled into Vegas Yesterday. The house is beautiful and fucking huge. We are still waiting on the POD but it was nice to get out of the car.

Biggest problem thus far is almost everything is gas and the only utility that was not hooked up was of course the gas. So no long hot soaks for us. That sucked ass.

The neighborhood is unbelievable <actually we are just south of Vegas in Henderson> it is clean and quiet. If for some reason I considered raising kids <no chance at that> it would be a neighborhood in which I would not have a problem with.

I love firefox

So someone has come up with this great plugin for firefox. It creates havoc with the search companies that seem all too happy to sell our data off or more significantly use it for profiling.
mrl.nyu.edu/~dhowe/TrackMeNot/

Basically what it does is generate a shit load of search queries on random topics from your machine in essence making you invisible in the garbage.

If ya don't have fire fox yet make your life so more pleasant

Real punk Kid Punk and Cyber pUNK

No pic yet... I will up one after. So I am an old school punk. I am garbed in Black Boots, Leather Pants, and Suspenders. Apparently in garments I wear and have worn on normal days scare the fuck out of folks. So what do ya do for Halloween when you are what folks dress up as? <note I scared a kid that dressed up as a Punk Rocker, he was so little, soooo cute and soo clueless in his 7ish yr old faux leather jacket and fake mohawk. Bet he never thought he would be asking trick or treat off a Bonofide punk .

<I am gonna later have a heat sink Mohawk and wired out of the bod..I will be parading as a cyberpunk in all the wrong ways>

Nice Job Cockbite

Ok so the corporate welfare bill passed the senate. So watch this one folks. it will pass the house. The lenders will get to write off their bad paper and will then sell off their shit at a profit sticking the United Stupid of Amerikkka with the bill. Times like this I am so glad I am a broke fuck with no holdings.

700 hundred points, 700 billion

I don't honestly understand either of them

I understand that 2 jobs washed for me cause my clients have lost too much in stocks

I know I am a poor fuck, money has meant little to me cause I do not understand why folks chase green ink on 70% linen. <There is another 7>

My condolences to the families of the European Financier that threw himself in front of a train. It sucks that daddy could not live without money. In many ways I understand. I am a poor mutherfucker, I often wonder if my wallet were fat, would meet the woman of her dreams.

It is all about money, I hope this shit collapse so that dumb cunt who scoffed me comes to my campsite begging for a bit of the rabbit I snared.

The Season is Open

Today I looked off the deck at the Vacant lot. Like Blackish Purple Jewels they shone in the occluded sunlight. Today is the day.

For a week I have noticed tell tale signs. 5 dead birds as offerings. My cat with purple stains on her paws.

It is blackberry season.

If you have lived in the Pac NW or have visited this time of year you will understand.

The berries bursting with juice that literally explode in your mouth, or the best ones on your fingers, with that tart sweet lovely flavor... Perfection.

There is nothing like being able to pick only the finest fruit. To have 6 quarts of prize winning berries in 20 minutes that they would charge $6.00 a pint for. I picked about a quart today. Just the best. They will be honored and consumed in the most primal manner... Raw unwashed and only adorned in their natural flavor.

In the weeks to come it will be Blackberry vinaigrette, Blackberry BBQ sauce, Blackberry cobbler, Blackberry pie Blackberry anything you care to think of including I think a Blackberry foccacia.

I love this month in the Pac NW.
