I’m pretty excited to get back on the garage sale trail tomorrow. My friend Holly has been traveling in Morocco and Turkey, with a side trip to Paris, for the past month, but she’s home now and I’m ready to hit it.

This is one of the photos she sent me. Her notes from the trip: So we are finally here in Morocco. If you really want to see what it’s like, rent Hitchcock’s The Man Who Knew too Much. Remember when an evil man was shot in the market place crowd, and then he collapses in Jimmy’s arms? As he slithers to the ground, Jimmy realizes that he is wearing dark make-up which rubbed off in his Jimmy’s hands. Well, that is the market place where Nan and I got lost today. It was quite scary actually. The roads wind around, up and down, vendors yelling at you, Scooters, bicycles, and motorized bikes come so close to you when they scream past, you realize you only just missed being run down. Meanwhile, lots of boys and young men are asking you “where are you from” & “are you lost? - I must show you my shop” all the while leading you away, far away from where you wanted to go, and eventually you are lost and terrified that you can’t find your way back.

Nancy is currently upstairs, in bed after having taken a Xanex.

My point? We’re both more than ready to get back out there tomorrow. (one of us might be more experienced at it now)

Ha! This has dod85 all over it! But some people can get a pass. I get it.

Kenneth Cappello grew up on punk rock and skateboarding in Houston. Acid Drop collects the casual snapshots he made as a teenager, in the late 1980s, of his friends skateboarding.

Bob is the kind of man that grew up carrying a hankie. Additionally, he can fix any TV or tell you stories of a time before them.

You know those pictures where people lay out all the contents of their purses?

Yeah. This is mine. It’s Buckley’s favorite hangout and he won’t let me near it when he’s ‘in a mood’.

Choire: Is “bite me” nicer than “suck it” for a headline?
Me: “Bite me” is a little too genteel. It doesn’t quite convey.
Choire: Yeah, but “suck it” is too over the top. It’ll turn people off.
Me: How about “lick my left one”?
Choire: Yeah, I’ll go with “bite me.”

Yeah, I always go with ‘bite me’. I’m genteel like that.

“Take a look, if you will, at what your appendix is connected to. I mean: It’s all there! Your appendix is connected to your large intestine, which is connected to your small intestine, which is something Karl Marx had. That doesn’t seem suspicious? Because what is the small intestine connected to? Oh, I don’t know… the stomach? Which is where acorns would go if you ate them? ACORNS?! Where have we heard that name before?!”

Hey, it’s Friday.

It only works when it’s small. (That’s what she said)

I normally won’t post something that’s watermarked, but this little montage was too cute to pass up.
