My Meandering Mind: March 2006

Ok, I promise...

I promise I'll start carrying my camera in the car again.

Because DID I EVER miss a good one today.

I'm at City Hall in my little community.

I return to my car to find a pick-up truck parked next to it, and as I'm climbing in and closing the door, I notice that the owner has spent a tidy sum of money "customizing" the vehicle's appearance.

There are pinstripes, etc. running down the side of the car.

And then I see it.

Stenciled above the door handle on the passenger side is the word

Bitches

Of course, I have to get out of the car to check the driver's side, which says

Daddy

CLASS -EEE

Oh, and the picture above?

The first image that popped up on a google search of "bitches".

Of course, it says that these are "ninja bitches".

Try the google image search yourself.

Just be ready for lots of chicks squatting on guys faces and servicing glory holes...

Rehab Building and Famous-Barr

This is a shot of the interior dome of a building under renovation.

The other is of the Famous-Barr building, which from the 1800's and up until this month, housed the Famous-Barr department store. It's soon to be a Macy's.

Old Courthouse

I had a chance recently to take a private tour of my own city, St. Louis, with local radio personality and notable St. Louis historian, Charles Brennan.

This is a view of the columns of the Old Courthouse. This was the site of many historic events, including the famous Dred Scott case, where a slave sued for his freedom.

It was profoundly pointed out on the tour that while slaves were being sold on the steps of the Courthouse, they looked East, across the Mississippi River, less than a mile away, on whose opposite bank was the State of Illinois, a free state.

The other picture is of the dome of the Old Courthouse.

...and Farting.

Too easy.

Dogs...

Terrifying.

Absolutely terrifying.

Rascals...

So I came across some photos I took while driving and I've been meaning to share for a while. One of three.

Reminds me that I need to start carrying my camera in the car again.

Rascals - Taken near downtown Las Vegas.

Enjoy.

So I came across some photos on the Internet...

Isn't that how it always starts?

Anyway, apparently a local Country AND Western Band, that's right, they play both kinds... has decided to punish all of us who come across their site with visual depictions of their musical prowess, featuring pictures of fans young and old.

A sampling appears below.

I like this one because it demonstrates just how lucky some girls have it...

"Oh my gawd ya'll! He buys me as many Zima's and Smirnoff Ice's as I want!" "I just love the security money brings!" "Just look ya'll! We've got so much, he can leave a dollar on the table in a crowded bar!"

"Plus, my meth supply is so close these days!" "It means so much more to blow someone for a fix when you love him and you know he loves you too..."

"I can't wait to get him home rip his Op shirt and gangsta chain off..." "Oh, gawd ya'll, my girl's gushin..."
