monday morning mayhem...

got back last night from a great time on an Atlantis Events Caribbean cruise, probably the most fun i've ever had on one. met lots of fantastic guys from all over the world. i didn't want to come back - especially to the 27° weather here in Chicago. it was only 68° in Miami when we docked and the Floridians were complaining of how cold it was! that in itself is a monday morning mayhem...

but here's a regular mayhem that was waiting for me when i got back -


it pays to mind your own business...


I was walking past the mental hospital the other day, and all the patients were shouting,

"13!....13!....13!"

The fence was too high to see over, but I saw a little gap in the planks and looked through to see what was going on.

Some bastard poked me in the eye with a stick.

Then they all started shouting,

"14!....14!....14!"




though i don't miss him...


i do miss his eloquence -
