Tourist or not?

New game. Four photos, lots of people. One is a Venice honey (classic style of cute girl that only cities like Venice has) Another is the best kind of street vendor (a freaky one) All the rest are tourists. You decide. Post answers in comments




Okay, I've divided them into groups. If you can tell me what the vendor is selling, you get bonus points.

Venice

This photo is all you really need to say about it. It rules. Late afternoon wandering around. Bet you never knew a camera phone could look so good, especially after looking at a few of the other photos on this blog.

Awesome.

All I saw at a Dodger game

So I went to Saturday's Dodger game and this is all I saw. Just as blurry too. Sat in the bleachers and the crowd was more interested in hitting these 99 cent store beach balls around than the game. Dodgers lost 9-3 but I have no idea how because I didn't see much of it. Grown men running through the bleachers, diving in front of little kids to smash the beach ball back up into the stands.

There was a pretty cool little girl though that kept stealing the ball from the ushers and bashing it back into the stands. All in all, pretty fun but guys kept showing up on base and I had no idea how they got there.

And yes, the Dodgers are going to the World Series where they will lose to the mighty Tigers.

Awesome.

These guys

rule. Living the American dream. I've lived in and around Venice for ten years now. They are out everyday with this cart, full of recyclable cans, bottles, whatever else, These guys must be making a mint. They rule. Plus, they've got plans. Whenver I pass by them, they're cooking up some other get rich quick scheme. Goes to show you what you can do when you make the decision to pull yourself up by your bootstraps.

Awesome.

My new favorite shop

This is my new favorite shop, solely because of the owner in the brown shirt. She was incredibly cute. If I hadn't been such a chickenshit with the camera phone, you could see her face and get the full effect of her beauty. Oh well, at least you can go shop there.

People living in shipping containers - Why won't the Dems allow the tax cuts we need?

So a friend of mine just told me she has to live in a shipping container. Her plight brings tears to my eyes. Someone told her that these two photos:




Will end up looking like this:



I didn't have the heart to tell her she'd been had. Hope is supposed to be valuable for some people. Maybe she's one of them. But seriously, a shipping container? Send donations.

Venice revival

This was a weird thing a few weekends ago. Several fresh faced young Christians decided to hold a church service just off the boardwalk on a SATURDAY afternoon. Could hear the music for blocks and blocks. The homeless people were really into it. My personal favorite is the guy or girl with the big afro in the front row.

Bullfight

So I went to a bullfight in Tijuana this past weekend. Pretty awesome. Did the full Hemingway, drank a lot, cheered the bulls. No one got gored though. Maybe next time.

This is on my camera phone. The fifth kill.

Robert Redford pleads to save the arctic

Like he knows anything about anything. Global warming, my ass.

I just watched The Ring

and now I'm never going to watch television again. Just to make sure I never see that video. I don't want to die in seven days. Oh crap, I actually saw the video during the movie.

There may only be another seven days of Michael Yass. I've got to go find Naomi Watts to find some answers.

Another perfect combination: Chimp + roller skates

Here is the last installment of my chimp trilogy. Enjoy and as always...

SCREW KALFUS!!!!!

A bookmark just for me

Check it out if you want but this is an experiment with using the blog as a bookmark backup.

Shut up Kalfus!!!!

Monkey + Mirror = comedy

Like chocolate and peanut butter, I have discovered another near perfect combination. Check it out. You have to love the canned laughter after he sees himself. Who set that up? I'm guessing Kalfus, the bastard. Hey, Kenny boy, you don't need to pipe in the laughs with monkeys, they're inherently hilarious. But how could I expect you to understand that, you're just a dumbass thief.

Awesome

Mikey, the chimp plays poker

This guy is good. Could probably beat Ken Kalfus, the bastard. Get out of my collective unconscious, Kalfus!!!

War On Ken Kalfus starts today

For stealing my idea from the collective unconscious. I have had this same idea since 1997 and it was sent around Hollywood in 2001, as my extensive documentation will prove. This bastard comes along, writes a version of it in 2003 called "The Moment They Were Waiting For", which gets bought in 2006. The bastard. He hasn't heard the last of Michael Yass, mark my words. I will not rest until his crimes are brought to light.

Here's the story...

These guys are a menace to all that is good in the world

And what is Hilary Clinton thanking them for anyway?

Condoleeza Rice - Secretary of State or--

SECRETARY OF SEXY!!!

Seriously, people. I think she needs a new title. If I knew which photos I could and couldn't legally use on this website, I'd put one up to prove it. If anyone can clue me in on that, I would appreciate it. Meanwhile, consider changing her title.

Awesome.

I am officially described in an internet forward

I'm not sure how I feel about this but a friend of mine sent me this with the caption "This is you." And the horrible thing is he's right. So go ahead, check it out, stare into my heart.

Here are the directions for staring into the essence of my existence. Enjoy...

FIRST, CLICK THE PICTURE, THEN--

If your eyes follow the movement of the rotating pink dot, the dots will remain only one color, pink. However if you stare at the black "+" in the center, the moving dot turns to green. Now, concentrate on the black "+" in the center of the picture. After a short period, all the pink dots will slowly disappear, and you will only see only a single green dot rotating. It's amazing how our brain works. There really is no green dot, and the pink ones really don't disappear.
