na na na na na blog (sung to the tune of "getting jiggy wit it")

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+2 great blog deals+
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I've been invited to guest on http://dachicagosports.blogspot.com/ , where one can find some of my comments.........................i'm working on a white sox post and NCAA post, but look later for me in the wkd for those
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I'm inviting my trivia team historian (how the hell is it that i'm not the historian of anything i'm involved wit??) to post his writings on my blog...............................my guess is that they will vote YES, so look for yr official J & B updates rite here, jamming you every other thursdays (J&B ! J&B ! J&B ! J&B ! J&B ! J&B !

womans gotta have it (or, see how i can secretly hid my hipsterness while really saying 'look!! Im a hippy!!!)

its hard 'cause im @ work (or, Werke, if i was karl marx) and its pretty busy 'round the clockso ( all those kids, all that time) , so its hard to post.....................but......

i grew up in the 70's (and the 60's and the 80's and a fair amount of the 90's, though not the 00's, im happy to say....), and i grew up heavily influenced by my 4 sis. they listened to lotsa pop, so i have a very very very healthy ear for populicious sounds.......................im also a punk rocker, so i can say "screw you, i listen to what i want !!!" while listening to loud oi oi oi oi..............anyway, im feeling defensive by saying i really like that one romantics "what i like about you"........................they also have another greta rocker, "rock you up", which i have on record but must transfer to cd.....................i mean buy the cd............both have a fantastic beat and i can danse to them, 'though w.i.l.a. you" would work better @ a party of regular joes while r.uy.u' would be much better @ a hipster party since they mite not know the song and therefore it would be "kool to danse to".....................................while we are on the subject, one of my absolute favourite party stories
(AND I GOT A LOT !)
is the famous halloween party that Dragon and i went to where Crankface (ah !! there's that name= ive been waiting!!) and Big Bang Bass Player were @. It was, um, 2000, im sure (?)..but the deal was it was some hipster house rotten wit dem hip sticks, and they had a d.j. playing good stuff, but no danse floor.....now, these, just great girls, dressed like the spice girls, were trying to get the nonono saying boys to play this one spice song, but they said "no!" again and again......................................but they finally were worn down (who the clock colud say no to the spice girls, and esp THESE spice girls on THIS nite ??? No one could !) So they put on the spice song, it was 'spice up yr life ' (not a greta song , but) , and they did this 40 second skit/danse to it, while everyone crowded around to watch. @ the end of the skit, they girls bust out into the enclosing circle, grabbed a boy (I WAS ONE OF FIVE- i will take this in my heart to my grave, unless im buried @ sea, where the anemoies can eat it out of my rotting body= tambien) and started the whole party dansing......................so, its kool to be kool, but not always............................my phrase that i love is "Womans gotta have it", which mite not be bestly translated from the Cornershop, but we can have our own intepretations in art, n'est pas ?
speaking of cornershop, i'll always remember the endless amount of time i list to their records in SF..................another time...................

new new new new new new address kommin !!!

while trying to sign up to comment on another blog , i inadverdently started this one and decided to run wit it....however, i
HATE
this address, so i will change the address @ somepoint......................i'll email you, but beware it will happen

von freak

just just just love the "von freak" bit i just spotted ........................hey, this blog shit is fun, though doubly time consuming............................i'm vain enough ( i have a blog== Vain Freak Ltd.) to think that my peeps are reading this, so now i feel i HAVE to continue to entertain...........................Blackie has the Blog of the century, but he goes in and out w/ publishing it.............so many frenz were just raptious(sc) readers of it, and all terribly dissapointed when he missed a day wit it, and fiting mad when he cancelled it those several times.....so, if this blog gains the kind of cachet (sc) that Blackies has, I realise that for the greater good im now stuck wit it.........................just understand i only have so much time free to do it, and im not inline @ home, d'accord ??
Now, how to keep rocky et al (but mainly rocky) from writing in stuff that is ne acceptable pas to nephews #2 and #3 and neices #'s 2-5 . Ah, damn the mines, full speed ahead ???????????

more telly news, and yes im sorry im so passer domesticus..............

femme (gf) et moi watched some telly last nite=she decided to come over late, and mummy, Z#4, bolo and I were deeply happy (she makes all happy, i realise)............................so i had this babble about shows last entry, and there is anothe rto add to the "I like this commercial telly product", and its "the nine".......................gf and I were open to it, and its sucked us in enough to follow it.....not as good as 'daybreak', and get lost if y think it "=" 's Lost, but enjoyable enough to follow.....................................plans for this wkd include a possible bachelor party this sat, friday a hawks game w/ the 16yr old boy set (#2 nephew and frenz), and sunday supper @ the Gallo's crib...................we'll see

kid tried to get "girlfriend in a coma" , a book, and i just had to pompusly show her my faux wedding ring and the quiff of an old man............................morrissey, thank you for everything (yes, the famous Morrissey, not a friend-nick-name)

melange

In french, it means 'mixture'.....................is this word used in the english language....did a cursory glace online and in mer-web, but will hit the Oxford when i get home..........................what, me pompus???

let yr spirts raise now/s'alrite

Just loved getting back into work today, despite the am wakey wakey.........................there is something about 3k kids that jus' delves energy unto me..........................what the clock is the de la soul and burger king connexion ??
gf is the best, and i just can't get around it (gf doesn't have a email address, and if i gave her this address, she probly wouldn't read it, so i can write the heavens about her w/ no repercussions....)
reading hellsing 2 now, will start #3 and finish it in 5m or so (its manga)........................its pretty good, despite the anti catholic and anti bias imbued w/in.........................and the nyt, despite the anti catholic and anti bias innit................................ok, off home, where my skin is flaying/ dog is playing/oakland's A'ing....................................................

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HUE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As is the custom, my sister Z#1's family came over on this sunday morn after mass........i hit the 11.30a because i didnt want to leave in the middle of the BEARS game @ 5pm. Love when the kids come over, and we are always dissapointed when they skip us on sunday morning (hey, we are all busy! hey, i'm a police officer ! what the hell is broccali anyway ??)
asked bolo

GO FOR A WALK ???
......and he growled..............no he didnt, he wagged the tail and raced out.....went to the park wit him, and tried my best to avoid all the other dog owners so i didnt have to talk to them , and we played w/ 2 mini pinchers, got to observe a pointer point for 2m (hey, who was hunting squirrels in Mt. G pk ??), and walked home.......bolo loved it==all that urine to smell !!! and we walked back after an hour out...................read NYT, watched some mexican soccer playoffs, then.....................................Bears...........................less said the better...........................but the day wasn't all back, as my equipo mexicano , america, managed to recover after losing a 2 goal lead in the series to come back and advance to the semi finals............they play Chivas next (yeah !!!)
MORE DOG NEWS
gf finally brought her dog over to meet bolo, and they got along well..............gf was real excited, because she just loved watching the 2 dogs play...........................bolo gets lots of playtime w/ the 'hoods dogs, but gf's has probly never met another dog.................................happy and finally sleepytime dogs....sister Z#4 and mummy loved it as well, since hue is such a member of the family, its like watching yr kids grow.....................................
okokok, i have to mention some tv as well.........................@ this point, unless its the 17.30h national news, the 18h bbc/mcneil/lerher, or a sports team that begins w/ The Chicago______ , ive lost interst in what commercial telly has to offer (i haven't cable==too cheap), but I do watch "Lost" and , ready, my new favourite:
"Daybreak"
.....................very excited about it, and i'm waiting for the next installment..............................Lost still exists, and im totally into going wherever they lead still, but its "Daybreak" that i'ma looking forward to....................................
i gotta go home, to watch the news................................and sleep, i guess

titletown 2006

saturday/saturday
took the long drive down to champaign after much hand wringing as only a couple can hang wring...............i was the one who drove all the way, and it took less than 2h !! wait, that would mean i was driving......................it took a lot more time than that, let me tell you !!!

visited 2 bookstores (Paris, London, Dublin, New York, San Francisco, Boston, Washington D.C., Amsterdam, and Milwaukee, the first stop is always some bookstore) and just got snot nosed for all the ancien dust busted about the place. gf wanted coffee, so the 2d place visited was a coffee shop..................then to the game..............................1st time in memorial stadium/champaign, and its a nice place.....................................best was those red jerseys on the field......................saw my old grammer school coach and his son, who was a teamate of mine back in the late 70's and early 80's. Both coach on the team now. lotsa peeps in the stands, both sides. some of the mt. carmel fans from the game before stayed- those catholic league people tend to know all each other ( i'm a c.leaguer, but also the freak, so i don't have the encyclopedic knowledge of everybody who went to rite ever, like a lot of people do)

The Game ??
................was good. Rita was up 7-0 in 3m, and it was soon 21-7 and it looked like it was gonna be a rout.

BUT-
Lake Zurich stayed w/in distance, and maybe something crazy could happen in the end...

BUT-
....a long 4th q drive delivered the game to the deserving winners.............i remember totally the '78 win, me being a little grammer school kid who felt the connexion because the HS would let us in for free to the games if we wore our st. rita grammer school football jerseys............it was huge back in the day, back when Depaul was the most popular basketball team in town (think Illinois a few years back, except every year Depaul was bringing it) and the cubs were actually a team you could root for and still be thought of as.........well, the jive image that gets thrown on cub fans today didn't exist back then..................saw a lot of people i knew=well, a few ( i thought 'd be more), and throughly enjoyed meself.....................................

the long drive back was ok. radio sux, so we list to a bit of a 10 y.o. mix tape blackie made for me (*69, temptation by vu, lotsa stereolab) until we came w/in range of npr (thank god for npr...............uh oh, their spiders will now spot this and send a $$ call to me.........).went to keegans to have a celebratry drink, then hooked up @ the hs for the 2am celebration............................saw cousins, teamates, coaches of past etc etc etc................slept well after dropping off gf late (3am is a killer these days)........................

i can't even begin to remember what i did this day in white sox history

that would be friday.............................................

23 November, 2006

talking 'bout last nite

who was there ??
newly weds, the newly unweds (no more yessica?? no more nix ?? mon dieu how the world revolves, resolves, and returns and goes, so quick), and others..........................went to the lovely hungry brain to have some drinx, and i always love it when frenz congregate in the masses...........admidtly it wasn't in the same numbers as flamingos in that watering hole somewhere in africa (more on that to-morrow, etc...), but it was a good crowd for an 'hey lets hang to-nite' type deal.........................................WERE STILL WRETCHED !!!!!

who was there ??
gf, ma cousine , the guitars, chartman, smokey treat, mr. hieroglyph, the ram weds, and everybody hursts..................................had to collect both gf & ma cousine, so it was a long drive all the way up to the fucking north side, but it was well worth it..................................just to see frenz, and in mass, when its so rare to see the lot anymore......and in mass, which always helps in these crowded days.............................talked to guitars about getting the band back to-gether, and we had a rather hamburg conversation rather than a let it be-versation..........................we'll see...................

doing the fat kaptain

fat slob blubber belly rounded out distended, making me feel sick like the drink-the-nite-before-this-morn, but here i am @ gf's family.......................' fraid im not being supersocial, tending to tend towards the silent and the nyt, and then updating this jour-tell, instead of being a talkative citizen.....................................they seem to be kool wit it, me being the lone strangr in this crowd #'ing sur les teens, mais ces ne sont pas mal....................je pense.............................


..............................and i edit/contiue.................
the best was the sweet potatoes.........................................................hung till 8 @ gf's family's crib, then went home.........................the whole soup was there, both of the collge kids, all 3 of the h.s.'r's, and ditto the little ones.............................................it was nice to see Og especially, since he's away from chicago and rarely social w/ the family except @ events like xmas and thanksg. ........................was able to continue to shape my youngest nephews reading by lending him some Pope and Ryan and Ketchum and some guy in the 506th of the 101st back in the curahee days............................also watched the America-Atlas game (3-1, can't wait till sunday) and for the 7,000th time, the 63d inute of the first leg of the Fire-new england 2006 playoff game that was nationally broadscast nationally on ABC==2 of the kids and I were on for some briefest of seconds, but its fun to see oneself..............................then went out to one of my favourite of bars (see list below)...>>>

LIST
BEST TAVERNS/LE MONDE
(alpha list)
#1 keegans
#1 lanigans
#1 rainbo

<<<...w/ gf, ma cousine, and wojo.............................ma cousine et moi have been to keegans for several of the last thanksgivings, and she's in from montana for several weeks, so happystance allowedus to go......................................it was crowded, but we got seats after a bit, wojo coming in late but he was there (better late than never/ alls well that ends well/ a stich in time saves nine/ne voir pas le foret..................oh , forget it).......................wojo has had a bit of an extradonary life, and the things he has done would stun normal humans........................some of the huge guns he has he didn't pull out (my fave= =the marquette park lagoon story.................... man, whose made borat--get them on the internet NOW !!!)............but it the wasna the time nor place to extoll ...........good news=he's been wit swet for 22m now......(!!).........je boire un cidre , mais i got so sick again that i immed switched to sodapop for the rest of the nite............lasted until they turnd the lites on, and then we left................................................i will neverdrink alchol again (mind you, i had ONE PINT OF CIDER last nite, not 60, so...............).....................

battlecruisers run amok

my favourite part of the battle of jutland is imagining the heavy metal shells careening off of 10-20 inches of armour-the whine, the sparks, the sounds...............................having said that, what could be more thrilling than the battlecruiser phases--the run to the south and the run to the north-- slite fast fleets of large warships, @ speed in the north sea, loosing off shells.................................ok, so ive spent a lot of time thinking of such things...............
