The Versatile Vest. Uber-Goofy.

The missus and I went to a show last night. Good show, wouldn't have been my first pick but it was great music and that's the important part. It was downtown at the PAC, and it was mid to hi falutin. Mostly mid-falutin. It was the strangest mix. There were women there in full opera 'opening night' type gowns sitting right next to Farmer Bob in flannel and denim. In front of us, was Mr. Vest. No complaints, they didn't talk during the show and they didn't wear their hair big, but during halftime (intermission for the showbiz) Mr. Vest thought his time would best be spent standing with hands in pockets and surveying his realm. Just a low-grade kind of annoying. So I obnoxiously and purposefully took his picture. If you're going to stand around looking like a damn waiter, at least take a freakin' drink order. Jeez, I must've hollered rum and coke at this egg-timer a half a dozen times and just got a blank stare in return. C'MON.

Purdy.

Okay, I know I still haven't written anything. Maybe come Friday when there's nothing to do and I'm crammed full of turkey after effects I'll put finger to key and get something done. In the meantime...
I did some house inspections up by the Tenkiller area today. I never understood why people spend good money on lake houses that are so damn far away from the water. But then again, a view like this makes a pretty good point. (Click pics for biggy goodness). Here's another from a different direction:



Of course, both of these have trees blocking the view. If you want the true unobstructed view...you really have to climb up on the roof and perch on the chimney (lower right of pic)


(I thought about taking a picture straight down on that last one, but I was wearing my good underwear)

Invisible

Okay, I did post this weekend. Then I read it the next day and thought it was not so much funny or interesting as much as it was...well, crap. So, it's gone now. I'm a bit on the hyper-critical side so that will happen frequently. Of course, this post will probably be gone in a few days too. I just don't like the way it's sitting on the page. Crap.

PLACEHOLDER - entry 1



Nothing here yet. Hopefully this weekend (11/11) I'll get the chance to actually write something. In the meantime, here are some lovely fall foliage pictures, and the election day fog creeping back from the dam at Fort Gibson.

Picture A: the beautiful leaves in the neighbors backyard.


Picture B is what nature has presented to us. Apparently I pissed nature off at some point. Oh well, screw her too.







Election day. The fog rolls back. Beautiful. Oh, and the um..
fence. It's there to keep any more metaphors from queering
the deal.
