Yeah so OMG WTF - I'm posting this from the fine grind.
The fine grind - it used to be characterized by a the fine mist that trickled out the door after you when you left. No smoking section indeed. The whole city's caught up in the racket. Word on the street is that you won't even be able to smoke in the turf club anymore, the turf club; shit you expected to whipe the grime off your glasses after heading there for a pint and now crystal clear air, nothing to cover up the stank of urine and spilled swill. Oh yeah, and it's good for public health - piss on it.

post script: I've started reading that bukowski guy, just because he's got a "ski" name not a bit of bad stuff really. Lates.

In response to, tangentially at least, My Boss is a Jewish Carpenter
Fist off, K_rel's post is super funny, but it does bring up an interesting issue.
I speak for only myself and my views only, here, now. The aformentioned bumper sticker is very much a reason why I have not participated in organized religion for quite some time. Somewhere out there there's a myth or story about the fish that looks like an infinty symbol with half a circle lopped off, wherein the symbol was place outside residences to let persons know where safe havens for christians were. A large part of christianity is based in tradition and the safe haven tradition is part of the experience. I have no problem with the safe haven bit, but the bumper sticker is more than that, right; it's a very obvious declaration of faith and that too I am not opposed to. The problem for me is the tone in which the message invokes to the non-christian reader. The message is a "I'm a Christian and you're not so there" a negatively prideful message - unbiblical for all of you literalists out there. Even less appealing to the non-christian is the "in event of rapture this car will be unmanned." The problem with the bumperstickers is that from inside certain american christian cultures they are seen as funny and true and outside of that culture the stickers are associated with a negatively prideful message - problematic communication between contexts. I personally denounce that portion of christian culture today. I do think, though that if you're going to have a bumper sticker that's a declaration of your christianity, the one m_g's got is about right.
God Bless Everyone. No Exceptions.

Yeah, so I've been perusing the anti-drug websites; as some of you will recieve notification from......ha ha (I'm laughing out loud as I'm writing this - suckas! - ha ha)
Anyway, there's also this site that I think is pretty funny stuff 911 in plane site. I mean seriously folks, as they say, "conspiracy theory is the new muti-colored toejam".
On a more or less serous note, a couple of new disks I've laid my hands on are well worth the buck if, that is, you're down with some kick-ass new hip hop. The first is Fast Cars, Danger, Fire and Knives a product of that Aesop Rock thing I've been fanatic about lately. In addition the new offering from Atmosphere, Headshots: Se7en is an interesting movement between Overcast and Lucy Ford for which I'm quite grateful.
Yeah, it's like that y'all,

For every cigarette that's trying to crawl out of my ashtray and other atmosphere metaphores, like, "You better find a way, you'd better do it soon, it's like the middle of may and you only got till june, if I'm forced to watch you touch that torch to that spoon even one more time, I swear to God I'm gonna implode"
yeah, like that y'all - dig it! So, I've delved deep into the depths of atmosphere's lucy ford too far again. Having a good week, hope y'all's do too.
A shout out to 'rah who's b-day was yesterday - happy 30th 'rah! (like the sign says)

Tombstone Bleus
Well, John the Baptist after torturing a theif
Looks up at his hero the commander and chief
Saying, "tell me great hero, but please make it brief
Is there a hole for me to get sick in?
The commander and cheif answers him while chasing a fly
Saying death to all those who would whimper and cry
And dropping a barbell he points to the sky
saying the sun's not yellow it's chicken

Seriously folk, take it all in.

Today
Yo, so I threw up some ribaldry pic from the other weekend; enjoy.
Additionally this week's started out quite right. I kinda felt like garbage all last week, but didn't know it until I woke up monday morning feeling great. Colds have a way with that with me - I can't really tell that I'm sick until I'm well.
It's tuesday and I've foregone the whole hump day thing and am looking toward the weekend; I think I've got to get myself out and see some live music this weekend because I've had a bit of a drought of seeing anything of note lately. Hopefully they're'll be something worth-while.
Speaking of worth-while, yesterday I realized that somehow I've gone this long without reading or listening to the state of the union address, guess it's probably the usual drivel and cliche, but it seems like the kind of thing an informed citizen would do - I usually make a point of it.
Late,

Ardvark Proud!
That - a classic.
Right on, so my weekend consisted of cooking for a bunch of pomps, dinner with friends (I finally got to use my le crusset cookware and it was a joy) and suffering through a football game in which my favorite team (since #7 was running crazy - and by seven I mean the annointed one r.cunningham)got runned over by my new favorite team to root against. All in all, pretty routine.
Anyway, the week is new and I've decided after a week of furlough to blog again.
Thanks go out to the crew that showed me the best of Chicago - that's you k-rel, rah, aa_ron,b_n and also the self proclaimed "queen of the internets" who since I've now met for the first and likely last time.
