The RhodesTer Chronicles: GONLOOLIO!
http://www.rhodester.net/2015/02/gonloolio.html
I stopped in my local Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf for a drink this morning. My local Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf happens to be in a supermarket, so I sit and watch the checkers check, while the baggers bag and the customers cuss. I was sipping on my mocha ice blended when the little Italian man, Guirmo, or Guillimo, or something, came into work and stopped by my table for a chat. After he returned the greeting, he proceeded to tell me something about the exciting day he had yesterday. I nodded in total agreeme...

The RhodesTer Chronicles: Chip and Joanie: A Mail-Order Love Affair
http://www.rhodester.net/2014/04/chip-and-joanie-mail-order-love-affair.html
Chip and Joanie: A Mail-Order Love Affair. Evidently you can now order a Russian bride online. The girls in the pictures are pretty but I’m skeptical, because I ordered a Russian bride years ago and Nastya showed up. I’ve only known of one person, besides me, who actually had a mail-order bride. His name was Chip. I’d imagine it still is, but I haven’t spoken to him in years. If you find me online, Chip, then hey! So Chip writes to Joanie, and she writes back, and they swap pics, and they get all goo goo...

The RhodesTer Chronicles: The Super Duper Wang
http://www.rhodester.net/2015/02/the-super-duper-wang.html
The Super Duper Wang. Dorian and I went to Super Duper Burgers in The Castro for lunch. There are a few tables out front on the sidewalk and it was a nice evening so we took our meal out there. That's when the doped-up dude came along and showed us Mr. Wang. As he stumbled toward us all I could think was, "No dude, don't talk to us, we're having such a good time and you're just going to fuck it up.". Please don't join us," she said. "You weren't invited.". Oh I'm sorry, I was just waiting for a friend!

The RhodesTer Chronicles: The Time I Sort Of Won An Oscar, But Not Really
http://www.rhodester.net/2015/02/the-time-i-sort-of-won-oscar-but-not.html
The Time I Sort Of Won An Oscar, But Not Really. The LIFE IN HOLLYWOOD. The "Awards Walk" entrance to The Dolby Theatre at Hollywood/Highland. Photo by Adam Fagen. The Oscars are coming up this Sunday, which always reminds me of the time I won an Oscar, but it was really a flashlight, and I didn’t really win it, I had bought it, and the theater was empty, but otherwise it was exactly the same. Was built from the ground up with the Oscars in mind, from what I understand. We were the only two security guys...

The RhodesTer Chronicles: Hardtack and Wooden Buckets
http://www.rhodester.net/2014/04/hardtack-and-wooden-buckets.html
Hardtack and Wooden Buckets. The ship I was on in the US Navy. Photo by some guy in a helicopter. People nowadays find it difficult to believe that I was ever in the US Navy. Yes, long ago I painted a ship, and then chipped the paint off the ship and repainted it. That’s what you do in the Navy when you’re in long enough. They like to repaint their ships every couple of weeks or so to keep them looking spiffy. Two things have changed drastically though, and that would be two things they apparently now ha...

The Tour From HELL! Photo by Douglas B. Davis. You may or may not know, depending on if you've read my about page. Or know me personally or are a psychic, that I am a tour guide who rides around on buses all day giving tours to visitors here in San Francisco.

The RhodesTer Chronicles: Life In Hollywood
http://www.rhodester.net/2015/01/life-in-hollywood.html
This is the beginning of a new series called Life In Hollywood. By Diliff (Own work) via Wikimedia Commons. HOW did I start blogging? I’m glad you asked. While working in Los Angeles as a film and television extra way back at the turn of the century, I found that people actually liked hearing the stories of my experience on set. 8221; which eventually contained every tale I told while having dinner with a friend, hanging out in some social setting, or getting to know someone. 8226; Me and Joss. So, IR...
