free stuff


on our way home from mom's today there was a sign on the side of the road:
FREE STUFF

SCREEEECH!!!!!

we get out and the guy is there: take it all, i've got tons more, whadda you guys need? ya got kids, ya got kids? whadda ya need? plates? name it!

well, i just couldnt think fast enough...what do i need...what do i need?! i pick up a metal vase and on the bottom is stamped: SOLID PEWTER. I need this!

Seriously, whadda you need? the guy keeps asking...

Uhhhhhhh. I still cant think of what I need, but my brain suddenly starts working again and tells my mouth to say: What do you have?!

He seizes on it: Pots! Pans! Do you have kids?
No, no kids.
How bout a garbage can, everyone can use another garbage can!
Marty pipes up: Garbage can?
Yeah right there, take it!
Marty looks appreciatingly at the beaten up and half melting garbage can and says: We lost our other one, adding sadly: it blew away.

Take it!
Marty: Sar do you think it will fit in my car.
Me: Yes.
Guy: Take it!!
Finally the guy grabs his drink (what the hell was IN that plastic cup?) and as he's walking briskly to his truck about to peel loudly away, he says, come back tomorrow there'll be a ton more stuff!

oh i'll be back...there's just something about free stuff...and yes, marty got the garbage can..

Dubbed The Badlands Guardian by locals, this geological marvel (Google Earth coordinates 50.010083,-110.113006) in Alberta, Canada, bears an uncanny resemblance to a human head wearing a full Native American headdress–and earphones, to boot. The Guardian was produced naturally.

dad

I wake up and i'm scared from a bad dream but then i hear the tv going downstairs and i know my dad is home and has fallen asleep in front of the tv and that i am safe.

Then i wake up for real and it is completely silent.

Exhaust


This is the view from the kitchen window of my backyard. It doesn't look like this yet, it's still naked trees and vines, the grass looks like an over-loved flattened teddy bear. The sun however is strong today and Spring is walking up the road real slow-like.

The people next door have developed a habit of running their car for a bizarrely long time right outside the window behind my computer. It's been nearly an hour now and I'm starting to like it, the smell of the exhaust is seeping through the window and it's reminding me of buses. Well..

so long Winter, you were a strange and quiet visitor. I hope Spring is in a good mood.

this is the jack rabbit, a roller coaster that exists about a fifth of a mile from my house. i've been riding it for my whole life and i have to say, it's one of the best rides i have ever known. this clip doesnt really do it justice, you WILL have tears in your eyes by the time it is through. the jack rabbit is the fourth oldest operating roller coaster in the world and second oldest in the USA.

I can't wait to ride it this summer(^:

Even after all this time, the sun never says to the earth "You owe me."

Look what happens with a love like that. It lights the whole sky.
