Sorry for the delay....
After dinner we walked by my car, i figured a few minutes in a bar would somehow recharge my keyless entry, i was way off on that one, so off to the show we go. Side note, if you have never been to Columbus Civic theatre, give it a try, it's very beautiful. We had great seats, center balcony, right on the aisle to boot. Now i have been a george carlin fan for many years, hence my language, i own all of his books and have seen many of his hbo specials. Georgie walks out on stage with a notebook and some loose sheets of paper. He announces that he is working on new material for his next hbo special, he just turned 70 so he now calls himself an "old fuck". George was his edgy old self, with the exception of him crossing a couple lines during the show i give it 3 3/4 stars out of 5. Those lines that he crossed were not hairlines either, they were more like gorges, but i guess thats his way to stay up with the times. So after the show, i made the not so long dreadful walk back to the taurus, with fingers crossed that it was still there....and sure enough out of the corner of my eye there she was, i was able to tell by the two toned bumper that i had installed almost a year ago. Stay tuned...

And down the stretch they come...
The 132nd running of the preakness and the one year anniversary of Barbaro. Going back to this race last year when Barbaro went down, i clearly remember seeing the look on his owners faces....Agony to say the least, but what i noticed most was the look on thier kids faces. They had a look of sadness as any child would in that scenario. But the best part is when the one kid tried to hug his mom and she pushed him away. Now in her mind im sure it made sense, because she could get millions upon millions of dollars putting that horse out to stud. And all those brats would give her was dept in the form of college student loans, so the choice was simple. I guess my question is are they getting any royalties from Alpo. Oh and also on this date a year ago, i passed on going to see pearljam, i decided to get loaded instead.
Okay, so now that i have secured my place in hell, im going to see George Carlin tonight. As if going to hell wasnt bad enough i have to go see GC tonight to ensure i get a front row seat, review of the show to follow.
