is that an oly in your hand..?

[YABYUM]

An Oly? Nope. That, my freind, is a cold can of good ole Millwaukees Best Ice. A very cheap and delicious beverage. Here in Vegas, a twelve pack is a mere $4.99. These beauties are also packed with 5.9% alcohol by volume. What's an Oly? Do you mean a Fosters oil can?

That's Lrod's brand.

Cost a couple dollars more here, tho.

Ya oughta come out ... fill up your trunk for him before you come. He'll pay you back.

lol

Good to see you!

I have a friend in Vegas. Used to go to high school with him. He's a cartoonist.. a characaturist ... works on the streets in front of the gambling joints, I think.

Look for him, OK? Tell him I said hi!

He's really GOOD!

haven't seen him in many years

Ben Burgraff, Vegas Characaturist, Cartoonist, Artist (apologies.. i can't spell very well.. I DID spell his name right, tho!

If you see him, get him to do a characature of you, OK? And post it here! *grin

Here are some of Ben's drawings from the page (link above)


Marx


Twain


Cosby


Clinton

There's more on the page.

This is just a reminder that when in Vegas, if you get in trouble with the law again, please call 888-888-8888 to speak with the Clinton, Cosby, Twain and Marx team. They will save you enough to buy 2 trunkloads full of Millwaukees Best Ice plus gas money to come out and visit.

It doesn't take an


to figure it out!

So Lrod and I may like the same suds but I sure as hell ain't mixin my brew with tomato juice. Just the very thought makes me shudder. Fill what trunk? I have been on the heel toe express since wrapping my last vehicle around a telephone pole. Believe me, I hope to get out to see you guys soon. I am actually doing a pretty good job at saving money out here. tonight though, I am going down to Freemont street to do a little gambling. I have never tried the blackjack tables. i am taking $100 with me to the $5 tables in a few hours. I'll pace myself so as to keep the Jack on the rocks coming along. Maybe I'll get lucky and win enough to retire.........

I gamble every day when I open my eyes. Other than that? Not me. I don't make enough money to gamble.

Used to play after-hours tonk & gin at neighborhood watering holes back in the day... and shot a little pool... but I learned my lesson well. "Ya gotta know when to hold up, know when to fold up, know when to walk away, know when to run." A woman can't run very fast in high heels which is why men invented them. Good luck.

I've got an addictive personality. Luckily I gave all that up 30 years ago. I do play scrabble online, though. Win a few. Lose a few. It's free. Nothing to lose but my time which is my life but fuck it, it's something to do. People to talk to who also enjoy words.

I forgot about your car. I had read that. Sorry, Yab! But hey, there's an ATM here and as long as there's an ATM, we can get ya some beer. No wait! That was my ex-husband's philosophy... sorta. He thought as long as there were checks in the checkbook, he could get whatever he wanted. I took a gamble and bet on him and lost. Oh well. It's all a gamble. Sometimes it works? Other times it doesn't.

Didn't mean to highjack your thread with Ben's drawings.. just thought you were in Vegas and may run into him on the streets. Good stuff!

You look very handsome! Would love to see more photos!

Speaking of photos, I got your file but haven't downloaded it yet! Looking forward to it!!!!! I've been in classes lately with limited time on this machine. Hope to make some more banners ... everybody loved your other contributions!

Post more photos ok?

Just remember.. when it comes to gambling... the one-eyed Jack is blind.



love you!

'oly' is an olympia... the lake in the background and your mention of oregon made me think of olympia beer... from WA.

my beer of choice down here in ELP is miller high life @ 6.99 a 12 pack. anything cheaper than that is not beer. besides i dig the chick on the moon.

[stilltrucking]

There is some king of blight in Oregon. I remember mile after mile of dead trees.

The best beer in the world is from Shiner Texas. At least it used to be.
