Cooked up coffee: Pot-a Kona, Pot-a "Ethiopian Fancy" and two Pots-a Costa Rican.
Cooked up a big pot-a baked beans.
Gone off to the gym. Three times.
Washed a VW Golf. Int and Ext.
Washed a Jeep Liberty. Int and Ext.
Watered a bunch of plants.
Paid a bunch of bills.
Took a shitload of ... uh ... shit to Goodwill.

Sweet ... creamery ... (REDUX)
8.3.2018 (first posted this week 2000)
I've always wanted to make a time capsule and I figure now's the time. I'm making a list of things to put in it:
Packa smokes. (Obvious choice. First thing ya do when you crack the thing open is find smokes. Light up and go through the rest of the capsule.)
Case of Coors Light. (Folks'll be thirsty for good beer in the future.)
Chicago Cubs cap. (My time capsule. I decide what goes in it.)
Metal keys. (When them "retina scanners" come out metal keys are dinosaurs.)
Ream of copy paper. (Paper = GOLD in future.)
Cell Phone (I'm putting mine in there to get rid of it.)
Pecan Pie recipe. (De-lish.)
Assorted Joe R. Lansdale novels. (Read some yourself and you'll know why future-boy gets these gems.)
A roll of latent 35mm neg. (Picture the fella who opens the capsule finding this. Curiosity will get the better of them and they'll find themselves compelled to develop the negative (Prob at no small cost. You know, "digaital photography" is the future. Fotomats are gonna be bulldozed (or LASER-DEMOLISHED (??)) faster than you can say "Bob's Big Boy." Anyhoo, Future Citizen will go through this ordeal to find on the neg very tasteful pictures of my cats. My gift to them.)
Brand-new leather wallet. (For holding fancy-ass credit chips or whatever.)
Last, but not least, the name of the location of tonight's TNSC meeting:
Wooden Nickel - Go for the cocktails, stay for the San Diego-style Cal/Mex food.
Business news: Want a list of new members? Okay!
NOTE: I need real names for future SINGLED OUT LIST MEMBERS. More business news: I'm going to clean up the list soon. If you haven't come for a while, you might want to renew your membership by having someone buy you a drink at a meeting.
TONIGHT'S CONTEST: Firewalking
TONIGHT'S DRAMATIC REENACTMENT: The first time somebody stopped for a yellow light in San Francisco. The players: Well ... no one has actually ever stopped for a yellow light in SF, so we have to wait till someone does before we dramatically reenact it.
TONIGHT'S SINGLED OUT LIST MEMBER: Rosey. Still a quitter. Speaking of quitting, guess who quit smoking? I started for a good reason and quit for the same reason. Go figure.
Team Bjeldanes results from 12aug00: Win. 5-0 (yeah, I know. I said 5-0 last week. My typewriter is screwy. Sometimes it writes "5" instead of "4." Sometimes it writes "I like fancy-ass microbrews like Sierra Nevada" instead of "I hate fancy-ass microbrews like Sierra Nevada.")
Team Bjeldanes results from 13aug00: Win. Backwards "K" to end the game. Thanks Tobin Jones, pitcher-god. 6-0.
Does anyone want to go bowling?
See you all tonight or ELSE! Bring yer best pal or best gal.
bye-ee!
whrr ... clik!
