Skate Night!

Jamon Abercrombie — Sat, 06 Sep 2008 22:27:07 +0000

Well, Jordan and Taylor had never been on skates before, and Jen and I hadn’t had roller blades on since college (almost 10 years), so this was an interesting night! It was a night that started and finished with injury.

Jordan did pretty good, even going backwards once … Taylor looked like a newborn giraffe.

From Jordan kicking Taylor in the eye with his skate to me tripping over Taylor and having my lower leg bend in a way that is not natural … it was a fun evening.

There is no way we could compete for a roller championship with ATL (you know, the movie – Atlanta – skate rink – just watch this).

we saw this sign

now, it’s probably not pronounced the way i’m pronouncing it in my head, but change that second ‘O’ to an ‘E’ and let the hillarity ensue!

A Frickin’ Elephant

Jake is five and learning to read. He points at a picture in a zoo book and says,

“Look Mama! It’s a frickin’ elephant!”

Deep breath … “What did you call it?”

“It’s a frickin’ Elephant, Mama! It says so on the picture!”

and so it does …

“A f r i c a n Elephant”

Let’s say you’re on your way to that important meeting, or you’re rushing your pregnant wife to the hospital, or you slept in and then realized it wasn’t Saturday … it’s actually Sunday, and it’s your turn to lead worship (not that that’s ever happened, eh?).

Why, there’s no time to stop and grab something to eat. Whatever shall you do?

Enter “Exhaust Burger.” Just throw some meat into the tray, and shove the … cough, cough ’scuse me … “grill” into your tail pipe and let the driving do the cooking. Once you’re at your destination, slap on some buns … and you’re not hungry anymore (for one reason or another – i’ll let you decide).

From the creator:
Your car’s exhaust is a barbeque now. Stop the car when you are hungry, install the device to the exhaust and back to drive, you’ll have a hamburger in no time. This way you don’t need fuel for cooking while commuting and a large amount of energy would be saved.

SPAM has met its match! I’m actually kind of disturbed with this. There are a lot of things that I can accept from a can, but a cheeseburger?! Even the Product Page doesn’t have much of a description about it.

How do they keep the hot stuff hot and the cool stuff cool? Are there separate compartments like the McDLT?

The McDLT, now that’s something that needs to be brought back. Anything that can make George Costanza dance and sing HAS to be a great product, right!?

Got these from my dad yesterday … Olan Mills Awesomeness

Those glasses came free with a purchase of Brut cologne

Thoughtful Lance. Mirthful Lance. Two sides of a delightful coin.

Drake won Bitchin’est Senior Mullet by a landslide.

That dude wore a tie for nothing.

The Purvis family made several stops along the Oregon Trail to document their six-month journey.

It’s called a leisure suit, ladies and germs, and if you didn’t have one in the early 70s, you were a big fat loser. Mine was teal. I wore it with a silk floral shirt and a long necklace with a football player pendant that we all got at that year’s team banquet. I was THE MAN.

OK, who farted?

A pose like this will get you kicked right out of the Convention.

Just a typical afternoon down on the plantation. In a business suit. Y’know, for a budget meeting with the slaves.

Dawn and her recently exhumed sister, Gorgotha, pose with Scraps.

This photo isn’t discolored. The 70s really were that Orange.

The Library might be more believable if the shelves weren’t sloping downhill.

It’s so cute when couples have matching hairdos.

B-52’s, the early years.

There were some more, but these were “good.” I may break the others out later.
