Current mood - Sic gorgiamus allos subjectatos nunc

Trimmed the 'stache to less sleazy-looking levels, but the whole goatee is coming back or I'm cutting it all off.

After work yesterday, BHK and I met with Adam and Eric for dinner at Hard times cafe. It was $4.99 chili mac night, so I was all about that. BHK and Adam got the chili dogs, and Eric took the healthy high road with grilled chicken sammich.

we spent an hour or two talking about politics, who is voting for what and why - I hope Adam finds his voters reg card. Eric seems to be allying with the 'phants, while BHK and I are leaning a bit more toward the 'keys. It was all civil, though, and we had a good time ribbing one another.

Played a smidgen more of fallout 3 last night... got gunned down severely while working under bhk's guidance.

NOT a game for kids... pretty graphic when you shoot a guy in the head - and a lot of dubious morality.

Right now I'm playing the high karma path... being nice, helping out. I can see going back and wiping out the town, though, later, just to watch it go up in a mushroom cloud.

Not going to do the trick-or-treater thing tonight - instead, we're off after work to the Edgar Allan Poe grave and memorial site in Baltimore for a little walk around the necropolis, and have a generally spooky time.

We never did make it to Aardvark to pick up our Zombie Fluxx! We'll have to do that sometime this week - must get it before Halloween! (only 10 more days!)

We have started eating the treats from our Halloween "Advent Calender" - counts down from 13 days. so far we've had two gummi eyeballs and a gummi skull.

Rather than journey south to Solomon's, BHK and I headed out to another corn maze at greenstreet gardens. Had a haunted hayride through the back 40 to the cornfield - I think the hayride was scarier than the corn.... mostly due to the bone-jarring bumps and slides around the road in an unsecured wagon!


Bugah got Mario Strikers... we may have to get a copy, to play with him online. Probably rent it first, to make sure it isn't a bum title, but the reviews are generally good.

Speaking of Mario, BHK and I thought it'd be fun to have Super Mario Brothers on the wii... 500 points later, there we go. She's more skilled than I am - but I'm catching up. I hadn't played it for about 15-18 years, while she has fairly recently.

more pictures as the uploader works - most are from homestead gardens harvest festival and store. I dig the hillbilly skeleton band. Darth Vader nutcracker for christmas? kind of keen.

We spent most of the day out and about, Geocaching with the Newsoms. They're really into it, with a little over 100 finds in recent memory. It was fun tooling around a bit and seeing what's what. I also dropped off tinkle pig in a cache... time for her to see the world. I retrieved a toy soldier cast from civil war bullets, who will ride with Bruce Moose and Gaytor until a suitable resting ground is found for him. The cemetary caches are almost always my fave - the woods were a hoot too, but ticks are a real fear for the kids, especially since Em was out sick just recently. (Heck, nobody wants lyme disease.)

A brief synopsis of Cache visits-

Dropped off placed Hula Wyvern (Travel Bug Dog Tag) in Little Southern Maryland School [visit log]
Dropped off placed "Wajima, Japan" Unite for Diabetes Travel Bug (Unite for Diabetes Travel Bug) in Little Southern Maryland School [visit log]
Found it found Little Southern Maryland School (Traditional Cache) [visit log]
Found it found Parkkin Cache (Traditional Cache) [visit log]
Found it found Flashover (Traditional Cache) [visit log]
Found it found Can you see the ghost?! Again! (Traditional Cache) [visit log]
Found it found Relaxation for Redlights (Traditional Cache) [visit log]
Found it found Book Worm (Traditional Cache) [visit log]
Found it found Time is the key (Traditional Cache) [visit log]


Aftwerwards, we took a quick pitstop at Aardvarks, had an ice cream and picked up kanoodle for BHK (I'm sure I'll be playing it too.)

Spent a little more time puttering around Solomon's Island, went to Stoneys for dinner. (their treat! yum!)

On the road between points, I got a call from my Mom, and it turns out that Bro isn't in a work crew, but just a rehabilitation center. Taking classes, etc. Hopefully some of the lessons will stick, but if not, at least he's out of circulation for a while.

After that, we paused at the Barker's to water the Mom-in-Law's plants, and to do a little dock-walking. I paused for a breather upstairs, but before I could get my nap on, Adam and Kendall showed up to say hi and to drop off some fireworks.

Man pummels vampire peacock

NEW YORK (AP) -- A peacock that roamed into the parking lot of a Burger King in New York City was beaten by a man who insisted it was a vampire.

Animal control officials in Staten Island say the bird was beaten so fiercely that most of its tail feathers fell out and it had to be euthanized.

The seven-year-old male peacock wandered into the restaurant parking lot and perched on a car hood last week. Charmed employees had been feeding it bread when the man appeared.

A restaurant worker says the man grabbed the bird by the neck, hurled it to the ground and started stomping it. She says when he was asked what he was doing, he responded, "'I'm killing a vampire!"'

Employees called police, but the man ran when he saw them.

Or just watch it in lego format?



Random Scotto factoid - I have always possessed an odd fondness for windmills. When I see them in movies, or as cookies, it just makes me happy... especially the old-style 4-sailed sorts, though the weird farm-propeller ones are also keen. Long before I ever read Don Quixote de la Mancha.

I like water-driven mills too, for that matter.

Had a great time gabbing with bhk last night... lots of infectious laughter and silliness, mostly about pure randomness and pente-trash talk.
