Whimsy Trumps Venom

My flight to OBFT was canceled so I will miss this evening's festivities. rob encouraged me to write a venomous post about my stewing hatred for the airline, but instead I will make like Action Bronson and post some whimsy.

Speaking of travel, Bam Bam recently took a trip to the UK and visited St. Hilda's East Community Centre, an old folks' home in London. Whimsy ensued.

there's something outstanding about being drunk in the ocean

Ummm...carson daly is on the today show? On on
...not just on.

Mark said...

Noticed that yesterday. Odd. And he's taller than I expected. Either that or Al Roker is much shorter than I thought because Daly towers over him.

Danimal said...

wonderin' if any of the obft crew hooked up last night?

rob said...

there's something less outstanding about being really hungover in the ocean.

My high school (of Ashley Dupre fame) is back in the news again, keeping it classy like only Jersey can:

If that had happened to me, I would've died later. The cause of death would be excessive high-fiving.
(h/t to Zach Galifianakis for that joke)

Danimal said...

she's cute...that kid is now a legend

TR said...

Unfortunately, that boy just died. he died of high-fiving.

Danimal said...

SWC (silent work chuckle)

Mark said...

I've got a pro football HOF post for Monday. Gonna save it for a larger audience.

TR said...

I'm here for you, Mark. So you got that going for you.

Marls said...

Post it. We can read from afar.

Mark said...

Its not finished yet either. Damn you all for exposing my laziness. In my defense, I have been solo with the young child since yesterday afternoon.

Danimal said...

I think Mark's and my weekend is slightly different than the obft'rs.

I am enjoying however my new sonos system. I am probably the last here to have it. Regardless, I give it 4 moscow mules out of 4.

Mr KQ said...

Picked up some Whale Tale in Fenwick on a TR recommendation I think? Pretty smooth. And the beer's not bad either!

Mark said...

Larry Allen just said that he hopes his HOF bust has a dip in. Fanfuckingtastic.

TR said...

I think it's Whale Tail, to be a precise nerd. I got turned to it by a high school buddy, but Zman has been a big fan for a while too. I dig it more than Dale's.

I am currently sipping on a Glenmorangie and doing work. But I am spreadsheeting the fuck out of these Excel files. Probably not having as much fun as the OBFT crew.

Hi Gheorgjies! I'm at a Rick Speingfeild show in Vegas. I know you wish you were here too, instead of OBFT

TR said...

Are you allowed to play the "Hi Gheorghies" game if you're mostly sober and doing work? I'll hang up and let you respond.

Mark said...

No. Hi Gheorghies.

Shlara said...

Hi Gheoghies! Rick was awesome, in case you were wondering.

mayhugh said...

Did he just play Jesse's Girl for 2 hours? That wouldn't exactly be a bad thing, but I'm wondering how else he would fill the time.

Shlara said...

He played ALL of his 80s hits. And a 10 min version of Jesses Girl

Followed up Rick with Seth Meyers stand-up show at the Mirage.

Two hotties--different eras

Mr KQ said...

My said Tale is Tale. It's Whale's Tale Pale Ale out of Nantucket. Different stuff?

A buddy has a tee shirt which reads "I am the man from Nantucket."

TR said...

I stand corrected. I enjoy Whale's Tale (ales) and whale tails (thongs that inch up over ladies' tight low cut jeans).

zman said...

I have both whale's tail in the fridge and that same shirt in my dresser.

Mr KQ said...

You definitely would have run lead in the WVU rugger Elephant Walk / Naked Hitler line.
