Simple Terms: February 2010

Wednesday, February 17, 2010. Olympic Memories: Part Two. A very cute baby, that helps. Tonight we saw the Flying Tomato (or Animal. I guess it is now) grab some bur-hur-hur-hurly. Air on the half pipe. That. was pretty-frickin-sweet dude. Then we watched quite a few of the women down-hillers finish the course in various prone positions. And of course watching Lindsey Vonn take the lead by half a second on a bum leg and scream orgasmically did not suck. Subscribe in a reader. Posted by Jon Dayton. Watchi...

Simple Terms: In The Shadow Of The Mushroom Cloud
http://simpleterms.blogspot.com/2010/02/in-shadow-of-mushroom-cloud.html
Monday, February 01, 2010. In The Shadow Of The Mushroom Cloud. A while ago I was writing about a favorite song of mine that goes, "We who grew up tall and proud, in the shadow of the mushroom cloud." For some reason there's been all kinds of mentions of Hiroshima in the media lately, I haven't had time to see why but it's been prickling the back of my mind. It's a different era. Black Sabbath using an air raid siren in a song chilled the Brits to their very cores. Now it's just a sample. Captain Dumbass...

Smarty Pants Rants: this one's for you Irish Gumbo
http://ssprants.blogspot.com/2011/11/this-ones-for-you-irish-gumbo.html
Like Seinfeld, this is a blog about nothing. Random and disjointed according to my mood and my blood sugar and there is absolutely no set theme. There are PLENTY of "theme" blogs out there. This one's for you Irish Gumbo. This post was inspired by Irish Gumbo, one of the best. Writer/poet/photographers, I've run across on this here internet. Frankly, while I am not joining a movement or anything, I am really starting to see that this is a trap "they" want us to languish in. And who is "they? A CUP OF JO.

Wine, Women & Whoopee: October 2008
http://drwhoopee.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Wine, Women and Whoopee. Monday, October 27, 2008. Me and my BIG mouth! I enter an empty restroom and retreat to the far stall. I just prefer a stall for some reason- don't ask me why. I settled in for a long, fine whiz and had just finished up when I hear somebody come in whistling a tune and mumbling to himself. He doesn't realize I'm in the stall as he stands in front of the urinal and rips out a brisk fart. BRRRAAAAAAPPPP-PPPP! I couldn't resist. I piped up "Speak again! O wise, toothless one! I used...

Nick Nack Blog Attack: July 2010
http://thatbaldyfella.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 6 July 2010. Oh such a transport of delight is the London omnibus. Its glorious red streaked black with pollution and grime, its many seats filled to bursting with unspeakable deposits and untold germs, its countless passengers slowly baking in their own and other people's juices. A London bus is summer is truly a thing of splendour and wonder. They don;t really look like cauliflower ears, though. Is it a medical condition? Was he born like that? Or are they simply weirdly shaped? Sadly, we shal...

Nick Nack Blog Attack: Nurse Gladys And Mary Ellen Baines - Part The First
http://thatbaldyfella.blogspot.com/2010/10/nurse-gladys-and-mary-ellen-baines-part.html
Monday, 4 October 2010. Nurse Gladys And Mary Ellen Baines - Part The First. She worked on many different wards in her time as a nurse and saw some pretty harrowing things (particularly during the war and also in her time on the children's ward which she vowed never to do again) but she never really told us about that. No, the two stories that stick in my mind about Nana's time as a nurse are the one about the teeth and the one where she got herself an honest-to-goodness nemesis. Great story, Nick! I wen...

Nick Nack Blog Attack: Airport Week - Departure Lounge
http://thatbaldyfella.blogspot.com/2011/10/airport-week-departure-lounge.html
Tuesday, 18 October 2011. Airport Week - Departure Lounge. Our week of reposts continues with this post from five years ago when I was airport stewarding single-type man. The roads are quiet and the ammoniac tang of last night's urine hangs about the Actonian streets. No one about except me, the cats, a few Saturday night stragglers and the cab drivers. For a brief time, Acton is mine for the taking. I decide to give it back. 6 am Work has begun. The fluttering of tickets, the squeak of airport troll...
