myrtle beach launch soon!
I’m lovin’ it here!
later taters!

8613 –
Say! Speaking of the UK, My keyword auto-downloader picked up episodes one and two of torchwood! Does that mean I’ll be getting dr who episodes soon? That’ll make up for the ended season of Venture Brothers.
Got to thinking about my old superhero concept for Stigmata yesterday… then Billy Crystal / Bruno Kirby with blackhellkat… Which invited the Burger King / Burger Christ comparison via initials.
Burger Christ. What a great, blasphemous name for a fast food joint.
Many terrible biblical puns came up for foodstuffs afterward.
“The Flood” – Jumbo Drink, served with a toy ark for the kiddies.
“Pound of Flesh” burger
Gadzooks – french fries shaped like nails. (ketchup or graypumpkin‘s sacred dipping sauce on the side)
Garden of eden apple/walnut salad – you can only order it once, then you’re barred from the restaurant. bhk added the idea of a snakey crouton.
The others aren’t leaping immediately to mind.. oh! “Lot’s Wife” Salt shakers and Noah’s Animal Crackers (comes in pairs)
Just terrible.
It seems I’m not the first to think of Burger Christ.
Watched Open Season yesterday, as it got a trifle too hot at Viva Broward. (I did get my Arepa, so the journey was worth it.) The movie was *a lot* more funny than I’d thought a vehicle featuring the voices of Ashton Kutchner and Martin Lawrence could be.
Walkabout pics from yesterday. Mostly construction and the Mexican place at riverwalk. (Compare Saturday’s walkies pic with Sunday’s… pretty dang similar.)
Our tree’s face lost an eye. I like him better as a cyclops.
Sneaky guy in sunglasses found his way into my wacky statuary picture. I like it better with a friendly wave. He offered to take my picture with stuff, but I politely declined – he seemed a little off-kilter, and I didn’t want him to break or steal my camera. When he walked away, he yelled over his shoulder “We’re the people our parents warned us about!”.

8612 – 2 days to trip!
I didn’t get to hit ¡Viva Broward! yesterday… I ran out of time. Today, however is a new day… I think I’ll trundle down there for a midday bit of entertainment.
Got a mild interrogation from someone at the pool on the way back from grocery shopping yesterday. I was toting a double armload of groceries, heading to my place; when a guy at the pool area calls over to me.
Guy:”Hey, you!”
Me:”Hi! Can I help you?”
G:”Do you live here?”
M:”Yup!”
G:”Which unit?”
(*note* – at no time did he ask my name, or say anything in a non-interrogatory style. )
M:”323D… can I help you?”
G:”No, I just wanted to know.”
(*note* – Did he think I was a hoodlum of some sort? That I was going to use packages of peanut butter crackers, deodorant, light bulbs, and a half-dozen liters of Diet Doctor Pepper to do some crazy MacGuyver evil on the complex?)
M:”Oh. What unit do you live in?”
G:”304A”
M:”Nice place. Have a good one.”
And I walked away.
He didn’t reply.
Wacky.
I didn’t look shabby or anything… wearing a nice clean Hawaiian style golf shirt, short hair, clean shaved, maybe perspiring a bit, due to toting the barge.
I figure I can look him up in the condo directory later… I’ll get the lowdown from Jesus-bread lady and/or the Condo Superhero sometime today, I’m sure.
Via Jordon –
What would happen if everyone on Earth suddenly vanished without a trace? Although that’s totally impossible, of course, a new article speculates on how long it would take for all traces of today’s human civilization to be reclaimed by the earth’s natural processes.
eyeslikesugar has me wanting to play work time fun.
Moment of Lyric – mp3 (Via X-entertainment’s great halloween jukebox)
In the afterlife
You could be headed for the serious strife
Now you make the scene all day
But tomorrow there’ll be hell to pay
People listen attentively
I mean about future calamity
I used to think the idea was obsolete
Until I heard the old man stamping his feet.
This is a place where eternally
Fire is applied to the body
Teeth are extruded and bones are ground
Then baked into cakes which are passed around.
Beauty, talent, fame, money, refinement
Top skill and brain
But all the things you try to hide
Will be revealed on the other side.
Now the d and the a and the m
And the n and the a
And the t and the i-o-n
Lose your face, lose your name
Then get fitted for a suit of flame

8608 – Saturday continues –
On the porch with Newt while Fatima gives the place a a scrub down… later, I meet up with the house sitter to make sure everything is good for my trip next week… basics, like where the sand and kibble are, some fundamental newt rules, and phone numbers to reach me in any time of need.
mp3 of current music. Hey, it was the spice girls earlier, too. Polka Inspired Nostalgia kick.
Just rec’d via netflix – First 3 eps of season 3 of the Shield, Barbarella, and the Skeleton Key. Skeleton Key is on reserve for Tuesday night, methinks. The other two will get watched before then.
Hey! Tomorrow is graypumpkin‘s birthday!
I think a trip to “¡Viva Broward!” is in order – I hear that there’ll be a few good musical guests, and I could go for some walkabout fun this weekend. Maybe pick up some arepas, too.
Places to take BHK in November – (just spitballing, not an actual itinerary)
Morikami Museum And Japanese Gardens
Vizcaya (and a stop off at the Planetarium and science museum, too!)
Miami Metrozoo (It’s cageless, plus it has the “Scoop on Poop” – the biggest excrement exhibit in the world!)
Speaking of poop and no cages… maybe Monkey Jungle?
Maybe the Norton? It’s been a while since I’ve been there.
Of course, bigger drives will be to the Keys (for kayaking, maybe?), or Tampa-stuff (Like the Florida Aquarium ), and St. Augustine’s goodies.
It’s fun to think like a tourist in my own region. (Plus, it’s cool to go any place that has a Ripley’s Believe it or Not. (Florida, that means Orlando, St. Aug, Panama City and the Keys) – I think St. Aug might be a good choice, given the review
8607 – some pictures, I saw damien.
Saw Damien on the bus – he didn’t recognize me.. last time he saw me, I had a full bear, long hair down, and was dancing with Willow.
I think the last time I spoke to him was Christmas at the ‘Borgs, about a decade ago.
Yup, I’ve got a picture, though Damien isn’t in it.
Ah, here’s one with him in it from about the same time – He’s on the left, in the tie dye, hands on his knees. I’m practically invisible on the right, a hovering set of cheekbones and a forehead. A lot fo people in that picture that I haven’t seen in a while. Notably Kenny the Klown (he’s in NC right now), The Three Brians, Eryn, Nate/Nug, Leisa, and the rest. I miss the drum circle / guitars on the beach days, when I remember to remember them. Lots of good cheer, good vibes, and positive thoughts. Very little negativity then… I think I learned a lot from those guys.
Anyhow… Damien.. he’s not doing so well. He was drinking vodka from a bottle in the back of the bus, with some older woman (maybe 25 years his senior… and not his mom Deirdre, either.) and taking some transparent caps… could’ve been acid, but I’m not sure. He was looking quite worn… a few days growth of beard, cuts and sores on his face and arms. I didn’t know who he was at first, until I heard him talking in the nasal slur to his seat mate.
Moment of Lyric –
8606 – So, this is Friday, is it?
So, venture bros closed out the season nicely.
I like the idea of a hovering cocoon, really.
Speaking of TV – I’m glad that they revisited the confederate rocket on mythbusters (03-14) salami fueled, plus, I like the phrase “reinforced goat nock”. (when referring to arrow design)
8605 – most recent case – very local, right up the street.
edit – Authorities find missing infant, cancel Amber Alert
The Associated Press
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.
Authorities on Thursday found an infant believed to have been abducted by an acquaintance of her mother.
