Pea Eve

There's excitement in the air, it's Pea Eve!  I was reminded by the tenant that I needed to be up early in order to properly decorate for Pea Eve. He was gracious enough to provide a list of the necessary items:
1- smokes
2- nikolai
3- hearing aid batteries
4- solo cups (blue)
5- Coco shaped balloon ornaments
6- grungy blue navy watch caps for attendees
7- oversized athletic shorts for attendees
8- locate a butt for Pea ( he has never had one)
9- gift wrapped harmonica
10- earplugs for landlord & lordess

Scotty? did you get a Ribbon?




Michael Scott Rowen arrived here today after intense Ranger Training in South Carolina & places un- known for the past 6 weeks. I asked the Lieutenant if he got a Ribbon after graduating from the Training Class. Scotty said they used to give a Patch for your sleeve but they no longer do that (sequestration I guess). This Training was sorta a big deal. I saw video of Rappling, Grappling, Hiking and Parachueting, not to mention Shooting!

Anyway, the Ribbon thing got me to thinking of Seinfeld. Jason & I quoted from Seinfeld often on our road trip. I said Jason, Me and Eddie are the only people in our extended family that know Seinfeld!

Do you claim to know Seinfeld?

Have you ever slept under the stars?


Keelan gave me this book when I was headed out west. The author was 27 when she hiked from near Mexico to Oregon. She was stupid, brave, sad & lucky. It was a book I'm glad I read and I thank Keelan for sharing.
I think some day this week I will hike to Barney's Restaurant, which is right near the Library.

Don't forget about your Fake Joints...



Just one more story about my trip out West. I promise I'll drop it after this. I flew out there on Virgin America. I got in the Fast Lane for check in...
I went through check in 3 times before I had an "interview" with a Supervisor as to why I was setting off the alarm on my 3rd trip through.
It finally dawned on me that I have a Fake Hip! I had forgotten all about it. They put me through the Body Scan Machine, everybody behind me in line saw my Fake Hip and my penis and I was good to go...! Don't ya just Love Air travel?
GD!@#!! Abdul...

Pea is for Politics!


On my recent trip to California I asked some poignant questions regarding politics. I asked the kids and the adults. What I learned is that nobody gives a Crap about what is going on in our Nation's Capitol.

A few of my questions:

Who is John Boehner?
Who is the current Secretary of State?
Do you know who Lois Lerner is?
Who is Darrel Issa & who is Elijah Cummings?
What do you know about Benghazi?
Who said, "we have visited all 57 States"?
In what State is Washington, DC?
How many former Secretaries of State can you  name?
Who is buried in Grant's Tomb?
And finally, who is Elon Musk?

I just got grunts, stares, guffaws, middle fingers and other stuff...

Nobody gives a Crap!
