Happy Birthday, [livejournal.com profile] graypumpkin!
monkeybday




I didn't get to hit ¡Viva Broward! yesterday... I ran out of time. Today, however is a new day... I think I'll trundle down there for a midday bit of entertainment.



Got a mild interrogation from someone at the pool on the way back from grocery shopping yesterday. I was toting a double armload of groceries, heading to my place; when a guy at the pool area calls over to me.

Guy:"Hey, you!"
Me:"Hi! Can I help you?"
G:"Do you live here?"
M:"Yup!"
G:"Which unit?"
(*note* - at no time did he ask my name, or say anything in a non-interrogatory style. )
M:"323D... can I help you?"
G:"No, I just wanted to know."
(*note* - Did he think I was a hoodlum of some sort? That I was going to use packages of peanut butter crackers, deodorant, light bulbs, and a half-dozen liters of Diet Doctor Pepper to do some crazy MacGuyver evil on the complex?)
M:"Oh. What unit do you live in?"
G:"304A"
M:"Nice place. Have a good one."
And I walked away.
He didn't reply.

Wacky.

I didn't look shabby or anything... wearing a nice clean Hawaiian style golf shirt, short hair, clean shaved, maybe perspiring a bit, due to toting the barge.

I figure I can look him up in the condo directory later... I'll get the lowdown from Jesus-bread lady and/or the Condo Superhero sometime today, I'm sure.



Via Jordon -
What would happen if everyone on Earth suddenly vanished without a trace? Although that's totally impossible, of course, a new article speculates on how long it would take for all traces of today's human civilization to be reclaimed by the earth's natural processes.

Moment of Lyric - mp3 (Via X-entertainment's great halloween jukebox)

In the afterlife
You could be headed for the serious strife
Now you make the scene all day
But tomorrow there'll be hell to pay

People listen attentively
I mean about future calamity
I used to think the idea was obsolete
Until I heard the old man stamping his feet.

This is a place where eternally
Fire is applied to the body
Teeth are extruded and bones are ground
Then baked into cakes which are passed around.

Beauty, talent, fame, money, refinement
Top skill and brain
But all the things you try to hide
Will be revealed on the other side.

Now the d and the a and the m
And the n and the a
And the t and the i-o-n
Lose your face, lose your name
Then get fitted for a suit of flame

New York girl, ooh, ooh, ooh

Runnin' pretty, New York City girl
Twenty-five, thirty-five
Hello, baby, New York City girl

You grew up ridin' the subways, running with people
Up in Harlem, down on Broadway
You're no tramp, but you're no lady, talkin' that street talk
You're the heart and soul of New York City

And love, love is just a passing word
It's the thought that you had in a taxi cab that got left on the curb
When he dropped you off and he stated firm

Oh, oh, oh [Oh, oh, oh]
You're a native New Yorker
You should know the score by now [You should know by now]
You're a native New Yorker

New York girl, ooh, ooh, ooh

Music plays, everyone's dancin' closer and closer
Makin' friends and findin' lovers
There you are lost in the shadows, searchin' for someone [Searchin' for
someone]
To set you free from New York City

And, whoa, where did all those yesterdays go
When you still believed love could really be like a Broadway show
You are the star, win the applause

Oh, oh, oh [Oh, oh, oh]
You're a native New Yorker
No one opens the door
For a native New Yorker

[Runnin' pretty, New York City girl]
Ooh...ooh...ooh...
Native, native, native New Yorker

Where did all those yesterdays go
When you still believed love could really be like a Broadway show
You are the star

You're a native New Yorker
You should know the score by now
You're a native New Yorker

You should know the score, you should know the score by now
You're a native New Yorker, oh, oh, oh
[Native, native, native new Yorker]
You're a native New Yorker

Whoa, oh, ho, ho, you're a native New Yorker
You should know the score
[Native, native, native new Yorker]
You're a native New Yorker

What you waitin' for, no one opens the door
[You're a native New Yorker]
For a native, for a native New Yorker

You obviously were planning some wild beatnik pool party man, before ya know you’d have scores of wild teens wantonly eating peanut butter crackers and replacing light bulbs all willy nilly I tell ya.

Jesus-bread lady and/or the Condo Superhero

It's always interesting! Thank you for smiling!

Jesus-bread lady is super nice- mor einterested in getting me to eat than stopping my heathen ways. :)

Jesus-bread lady sounds lovely, though Condo Superhero sounds pesky...

And the Pool boy inquisitor sounds nosy. I predict he will not be bringing you tasty religon based treats. Maybe it's just me but if some bozo by the pool asked me which unit I live in I would assume he's a serial killer.

Ah, I thought maybe she was among the "Jesus face on food" discovering people or something. Or was into baking for King's day. So little info, so much imagination! lol have a good day.

Thanks! Unfortunately it's one that fell victim to my losing my connection so I don't know from whence it came.

Yeah that IS an odd conversation/interrogation but very interesting and made me giggle. =)

I neglected to talk to either of my condo contacts.. so he remains a bit of a mystery to me yet!
