The Goat Pen

wonder what the circumference of Weezy aureoles were? my guess is 8.25 inches

I just threw up.

That's as bad as éclat wondering how a 500 lb woman gets her ass wiped.

actually they are ultra conservative.

The grooms brother owns 12 guns, and the brother of the groom's father, who owns an investment firm in Dallas plays golf regularly with Rick Perry.


I know this because I made a joke about Perry being an idiot which he did not find funny.

Later on that night I met a 28 year old venture capitalist who Google is backing.

The Rabbi was straight up Jackie Mason sound alike. "You want I should explain the ceremony to you and what a K-Tuba is?"

If they can see Central Park and the ESB, they evidently own a corner apartment, if not the entire floor...

I have no idea. I think he said something about being able to see the sun set in the west and also the 45th floor is the top floor and its a fitness center.

I thought it would be rude to ask his specific address. He also mentioned he just got fitted for a custom titanium bicycle and that if I was interested in cycling I should get a Cannondale something or other which you can pick up used for $1500.

My "starter" bike is a huffy I picked up new at Kmart for $89. I hit my head on it occasionally when I am cleaning up the garage because it hasn't moved from the bike rack in about 8 years.

Since I post here regularly, I'm used to people pretending to show interest in what I say. That happened ALOT last night.

"Oh so you're the CTO of your company?" No mothef'er, I am middle management and damn lucky to be that! Oh, and one more thing, Filet Mignon has bacon wrapped around where I'm from!"

btw, I drove from Dallas to Cinci in one shot today. 949 miles in 15 hours, 2 traffice jams and 1 Cracker Barrel stop.

Overall good people though.I enjoyed myself. Looks like my sister-n-law is in good hands.

*note* - a quick google search leads me to believe they live on or around the 1200 block of 2 Ave. I would assume that is pricey but as I said when I started this conversation I am way out of my league

what'd you get at Cracker Barrel?

63rd and 2nd Ave? Eh, not bad, but kinda standard fare...not totally ballerific. I was expecting CPW or (if they were to live on the East Side) somewhere along Park or in Sutton Place.

Im guessing not the shrimp omlet.

eCat comes to Texas, meets rich guy, then jokes about how Rick Perry is dumb. Smooth.

well to be fair, he started it by saying "This is George Bush country!"

I thought my response showed great restraint on my part. That is the beauty of my upbringing. While I certainly know enough to realize we run in different circles, I'll never go with my hat in hand asking them for anything. That gives me the freedom to be a redneck around them. Whats funny is on my wife's side of the family, I'm the guy with the "good job". Sunday night I was "that brother-n-law...just humor him".

the meatloaf.

Cracker Barrel is really the best value for a sit down meal on road trips. We can get out of there for less than $40 including the tip.

some reason catfish/okra and macaroni hit the spot in that place

Cracker Barrel is probably the only restaurant my father will eat in (well, outside of a Burger King stop on his way back from church, or the cheesesteak place down the road from the family Ponderosa).

Hop Sing will be happy to hear that. Or maybe sad. Or angry...

eCat likes to return to the metaphorical site of his run oft...

heh, I had forgot all about that. You guys remember shit too well.

That will never be forgotten...

Turnip greens and trout at CB. Too bad no beer.
