So I am on my phone Tweeting with blog pals and I hear "I am in jail". What? Well .... because I had NO computer, I could not see the photo at the Mixed Messages post by DCR. I was hold-up in a hotel on the Canadian border using a cell phone like a notebook (laptop) . Not so easy. NOT jail. Not really anyway.
I wonder how DCR found this picture from the Hollydale Times circa 1988? I thought I bought every copy ...
Even stranger, I saw this billboard traveling down Interstate 77
Sure, I know why I am looking at the HOT chick, but how did I get there? The real problem was that my URL was not listed at the bottom. What good is publicity if it does not drive traffic to the Speedcat Hollydale Page? Some people have blogs, some have SPLOGS (which suck), and some have web sites. I have a page. What defines being a "Page" and not a "Blog"? The difference lies mainly in content. Mine is random and contains way to many pictures.
Ehhh, that's how I do it.
(singing) This is how we dooo it ... when your life is mostly work, and there is nothing much to say aye aye aye .... THIS IS HOW WE DO IT!!!!
I hardly EVER travel far enough to need a hotel anymore. When did the price go from 49.00 dollars to 5000 dollars? SHAZAM ... Here is an exciting slide show for you. (Yes ... just YOU!)
Back to hotel pricing, I thought I knew the answer to the "inflation" when I went into the shitter. WOW !!! Looky here, a phone right next to the throne. Excited, I picked up and tried to call Guido Sarduci in Poland. Why not use some long distance miles on my Gold Card? Well, the blasted thing did NOT have a keypad. Stupid is as stooopid does, I wondered if it was voice activated, and proceded to "SAY" the numbers. One .... Eight Hundred ..... Seven .... etc etc
Nothing! Crazy thing is, it had a fan motor inside.
TO COOL DOWN WHAT !?!!
I was upset, and jumped on the bed until the box spring snapped. In retrospect, this action was worth the overnight price in itself.
Being home again is great. Having a computer and a KEYBOARD again is great. Being as far away from Canada as possible is great.
Canadians are lunitics.
THEN I FOUND THIS !!!!
The 2008 Absolute Bestest Incomprehensive Awards Ceremony Ever Held By Predator Press in the History of Humanity! at Predator Press
I was listed in cat-o-gory 5: Best posts of 2008
It was tough picking out my fave three posts of the year. But I’ve narrowed the list to:
Angry Seafood - "Polygamist Cult Not Attractive Enough to Join "
This riveting exposé dives deep into the seedy underbelly of polygamy and splays it’s steaming entrails all over the linoleum.Included topics are the downside of inbreeding and it’s inherent adverse effects -such as significantly inhibited recruitment.
neOnbubble - "Make Money Online With Blackmail "
Hats off to a deviously brilliant concept: an anonymous blackmail exchange program. I don’t want to ruin it by going into too much detail, so you’ll have to check this one out yourself.... and then let the paranoia set in.
Speedcat Hollydale - "Old Towne Speedcat Goin Down the River "
When Speedcat Hollydale announced he was going to release his single “Old Towne Speedcat Goin Down the River,” legend has it Scott Stapp got over himself and David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen started making out with each other.But Speedcat would have none of that: instead of muscling his Les Paul and Marshall stacks into the studio, Speedcat does is solo and acapella from his very own kitchen.Personally, I think this has way more influence on modern music than Kurt Cobain ever did.
Look "up" to see my NEW Badge
To sum up the whole ball of wax, I'm pooped. To bad there is not a phone in my home bathroom either .... but I do tweet there.
