Thoughts from a drinking buddy


 Sunday Evening
 

So the New York Giants will be playing against the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl. I was rooting for Green Bay, since I wanted to see Brett Favre go to another Super Bowl. But I don't have a problem with the Giants winning. The Giants have played some really good football, especially in the playoffs.

Is it cold where you are at? It is currently 46 degrees here in Orlando. It rained last night as a cold front came in. Today was cool temperatures but very windy. I like it when we get cold temperatures during this time of year. It is hot most of the year, so a change in temperatures is a nice change of pace.

With the weather being cold tonight, I will not be able to sit out on the patio and have a cigar. But I just remembered, I have off from work tomorrow. So I think I will throw on my leather jacket, grab my cigar case, and go down to Sportstown and visit a few friends.

In the meantime, I am going to change the channel, so to speak. Bella is getting on my case about the last photo I posted on my blog, so I went through my gallery to find another photo.



So I am going to post some photo of some guy having a beer and a cigar at Sportstown. And I have no idea if anything is written on his boxers.

So I am throwing on the leather jacket, and go out for a little bit. Stay warm, everyone, and tell me if you have figured out who the guy in the photo is. Now if you excuse me, I am going to go see if I can find a woman with a message on her panties.

 I Got Your Picture.....
 



So here I am, relaxing at home on a Saturday evening. I had a day off from work, so I decided to go shopping in the afternoon. Then I would stay home for a relaxing evening watching the NFL playoffs while I enjoy a great steak dinner. Like my Uncle Dean once said, "Saturday night is steak night!" Wise words from a great man.

Uncle Dean passed away a few years ago. A veteran of the Korean war, husband to my Aunt Honey, a father of two, and a devoted drinker of Rolling Rock and Iron City Beer, he was always one of my favorite relatives.

Anyway, after I had dinner, I decided to turn the computer on and do some web surfing while the Patriots played against the Jaguars. I came across a web site that has all of these photos that are supposed to be humorous.

I came up on this photo, and it made me think as to how some people can post their photos over the internet. Especially in this get up. And you could probably imagine what I was thinking when I saw the photograph.

I have a myspace web site, and there are two photos of me posted on it. Unfortunately, both photos are of me enjoying an alcoholic beverage. So if anyone is looking at my photos, they are probably thinking,

"What a drunk!"

Let them think what they want. As for the photo posted, I did have a laugh. And for some reason, I had to post it on my blog.

"I got your picture, I got your picture....."

 One Of My Favorites
 



In honor of my second year here at Blogstream, I leave you with a photo of one of my favorites, Sherilyn Fenn. You may remember her from television's "Twin Peaks".

I always thought that she had a great face. What do you think?

As for me, I have always had a weak spot for brunettes.

 Happy Anniversary
 

It did not even occur to me until Coloconnect brought it up to my attention. It so happens that I have been here at Blogstream for two years now. My two year anniversary fell on January 6th. I was not even paying any attention to it.

Anyway, thanks to everyone who has stopped by to read my blog. And I hope that whoever enjoys reading my blog will continue to stop by and say hello. Just as I do when I make a comment and leave that alligator icon on the comment section of your blog.

Recently, I had wrote about having to take a physical, and a few of you asked how things are going. I had my appointment today, and things checked out out okay. My blood pressure is good, but I have to lose some weight. Next week, I will go in to have some blood work done, and I have a few other appointments to make.

Other than that, things seem to be going good. Since we are on the subject of anniversaries, I will start my twenty-third year with the city in February. Three more years, and I can retire. That is if I want to. For now, I want to concentrate on my health and get that taken care of. And I also have some dental work to take care of. In the meantime, I plan on taking things one day at a time. As Joe Walsh would say.

Well. I am going to say good night. I have a few things to do before I retire for the night. Thanks again for putting up with me, and I'll write a new post soon.

Good night.

 Weekend At Bernie's
 

The movie "Weekend At Bernie's" immediately came to mind when I just read this article on the Orlando Sentinel web site. In New York, two men were arrested after an attempt to push a dead man into a check cashing facility and cash in his $355 Social Security Check.

David J. Dalaia and James O'Hare, ages 65, were seen pushing the corpse of Virgilio Cintron, 66, in an office chair down a Manhatten street and stopped at a Pay-O-Matic check cashing service to cash in his Social Security payment.

The manager of the Pay-O-Matic knew Cintron and had asked to see him. As he inquired as to where Cintron was, a New York police officer noticed a crowd gathering around the seated corpse. As the officer called for assistance, Dalaia and O'Hare were attempting to push the body of Cintron into the Pay-O-Matic to show the manager that Cintron was with them.

Both Dalaia and O'Hare were arrested for check fraud charges. O'Hare shared an apartment with Cintron, who passed away in the apartment earlier in the day due to natural causes.

I know how morbid this sounds, but can you just imagine these two guys wheeling a corpse down the street in an office chair, and the head, arms, and legs are flopping all over the place. And what if a friend of yours just happens to walk by and sees what is going on. What are you going to say.

"We're taking him around the neighborhood one last time before his funeral."

When I should pass away, I hope that a friend or family member should properly take care of me. Knowing some of the friends that I have, they would probably dress me up in swim trunks, a Hawaiian style flowered shirt, sunglasses, and a Panama Jack hat. Then they would take me out to Cocoa Beach, and put me on a lounge chair with a beer bottle in my hand and a cigar stuck in my mouth and let some poor lifeguard find me.

And I would probably have a friend tell the lifeguard....

"He looks like his dear old self."

If you want to read the article, go to www.orlandosentinel.com and look under the heading for national articles.
