Scam Baiting Dating {The FINAL update}

I have jumped back into the ScamBaiting game again. This one is especially good because it involves a woman or a man pretending to be a woman. Let’s see how Alicia and Juan strike up a beautiful and loving relationship.

I have gone through a pruned out the bullshit to clean this up a little as it was getting a bit long. You'll note the {bullshit} tag in these areas.

Alicia!

So good to hear from you! I am surprised that you have contacted me as I have been without a wife for three years now. Even with all our money I was unable to save her...

But enough of the sad! So good that you contacted me. How did you hear of me?

Please let me know what you want to talk about. I do not care about looks, just good conversation.

Thanks,

Juan

subject Re: Hello

Alicia,

What a terrible life you have had! I wish I could make all step mothers go away, but then, if we get married, you will be my children's stepmother!

I have the finances to help you leave your country, but I need to know a few things about you, too. My wife, God bless her soul, was a great cook and a comforting lover. I will need to know that you can satisfy my wants and needs.

Please let me know the following:
1. Can you cook?
2. Can you wash clothes?
3. Will you lie in bed quite or do you wiggle around and make noise?
4. Have you ever had a Cleveland Steamer?
5. Can you watch children?

Here are the answers you needed from me:

Your phone number..... 702-520-1131 {A sales call we got last week}
Your home contact address... 2855 West Dublin Grandville. Road. Columbus, OH 43235 {The Columbus Police Department}
Your residence country...... United States
Your age.......................... 52
Your occupetion................ Inventor, Salesman, Lover, Dreamer

As part of this deal, I will require 50% of all profits. I will allow you to continue school, but you must wear full length dresses and a veil. (I do not want to pay for you to come here and then have some 20 year old boy steal you from me.) You will cook and clean and every second night we will have sexual relations in the mouth and in your backside. At first it will hurt, but you will get used to it. On every third night, we will dress up and play, "Cannonball of Love."

Please do not be afraid to ask about the details of sex. If you are not comfortable with this, then we will have to break off this relationship.

Again, I do have the money to bring you to the United States, but only if we can work out an agreement. In time you will grow to love me.

My dearest love to you,

Juan Stein

Hello,

I am contacting you concerning Mr.Fred Camara from Liberia with Ref.. number 101000465578

But before we discuss this, I need to know a little bit about Miss. Alicia Camara. She is going to move to the United States to be my wife but I MUST know if she is a virgin or if she has been with men. I saw her photo, but you know how photos can be. Is she beautiful or will I need to buy more paper bags?

When she gets to the states, I am going to violate her in every room of my house (and my house has 22 rooms!) She has told me that I can make love in her butt!

I plan on sending her some money, but I will not unless you can help me determine if this is a scam or if she is not as "boing - boing" and "hot potato" as she says she is.

Please help and God be praised,

I am very happy to recieve from you the response from the BANK, I thank God for everything,I really appreciate your care and your concern and I know God will surely see us through.

This lawyer will help us to get the item which is the power of attorney and the affidavite of oath and the lawyer will also draft the transfer application for us and support from the federal high court here in Senegal.

Please keep this matter strictly confidential, I can always trust you, Because I don't want my step mother or any of my relatives to know about this on any account, as you can see that we are almost at the end of this matter, God will help us.

Now there is no need for us to keep waiting since the BANK are ready to make this transfer once the documents are ready, I have ask the Rev.Father here and he gave me a contact of a good indiginal lawyer here in SENEGAL who will help us to get this documents without wasting much time, Bellow here is the lawyer contact The Rev.Father gave me;

I am deaf. I cannot hear out of my left ear and my right ear is 120% deaf.

I KNOW WE CAN STILL MAKE THIS WORK. I should have told you at first, but I was scared you would not keep talking to me.

If you are ashamed of me, do not bother replying back. I will weep and the tears will burn down my orifices. Oh the melody!

But if you still love me, then we will make this work. I can teach you sign language or I can learn to write in whatever gibberish you speak.

Hello Barrister Assman,

Hello and fine welcome. My name is Juan Stein of these United States. It is good to speak with such a educated person such as yourself. I, too, am educamted in several languages and maths. Sadly, an accident has taken away my hearing and I cannot hear so I am unable to speak the languages I cannot hear because I have lost my hearing. I'm sure you know the feeling.

I have some items I need you to review. I am working in tandem to retrieve some monies for my fiancée and wife to be, Alicia Camara, late daughter of the late Mr. Fred Camara. I have take it upon myself to help this young, virginal lady with regaining her finances as well as preparing a home for her here in the United States of America. When she gets here, oh boy the ass rapings will commence!

I have attached some paperwork to help these proceedings. I am also hoping I can retain your legal counsel to attain the proper paper work so that Alicia can come to the United States as soon as possible. My burning chode can wit no longer for her love.

Please let me know the costs associated with gaining her a passport and visa. I know these can be expensive and I do not care what lengths and breasts you have to go to. Even if it requires some "quote" paperwork under the table, do what you must to get her here!!

I have listed some of the requirements below. I've been to hell and back to get this paperwork and I can stand for you screwing this up. Please note the six items below as well as the attachments I am sending you.

{The bullshit six items from the previous letter}

Please let me know if you can help or if I have to find another law guy to help me.

Oh my sweet num num num, it is so good that you have not thrown me in the bushes because of my hearing problem. A man with out ears in the united states is as good as a bike without a baseball hat in Africa.

I have contacted the lawyer. I want you to know that I am talking to them about getting you a passport and a visa so that you can come to my house in the United States. The cost for the money transfer is reasonable and I want to make sure that the cost for your passport and transportation will not blow a load in my sock.

Once the lawyer guy tells my how to get you here, then we are 50% of the halfway mark!

Usually I masturbate three to four times a day, but I have not at all since your last message to save up for you!

Let us pray to Jesus and God (Oh God Let the trip and travels of Alicia be of short and hurried manner. Let the carry on baggage be free of 7oz containers and sharp objects. May her flight not be delayed and may she land on time. OH GOD! In your mercy, let the Taxi be swift and the tip be modest so that my sweet sweet Alicia may arrive into her cell and holding area. May the leather straps not chaff her skin. Dear God in heaven next to her sweet departed father who's internal organs did bleed in your name.

In your name lubricate,

Amen.)

Once the lawyer gives me the jive, you just hang loose blood and she be back on the rebound with the medicide.

Dear Mr. Assman,

These prices are satisfactory.

As you may be well aware, I will be bringing my sweet Alicia to the United States. Like a ship into the tubes of fallopia, I need to ensure that my "package" has not been touched by man. If I find out that she has been violated by man or beast, I shall negate this deal.

I will need the results of the virginity test BY A DOCTOR before I will continue this deal.

Please do not let Alicia know that I have concerns about he purity and virginity, but I do not want a diseased woman to touch my penis and taint.

I will need the results of the virginity test before I will complete this deal.

I am going to tell Alicia that everything is ready to go and that she will be having a Doctors test to make sure she is healthy. DO NOT TELL HER ABOUT THE VIRGINITY TEST.

In my next e-mail to her, I will tell her that you are going to have a doctor look to see if she is healthy to come to the United States. Secretly the doctor should check her out and see if she is pure.

If she finds out about the test, this deal is OFF!!

Get a doctor to check her and i will reassure her that the doctor is just checking her blood and health.

Thank you for your understanding,

Listen here Assman,

I need a certificate of virginity. I will not bring a woman over here unless I have one. The last eight women I have brought over all had certificates of virginity, signed by a doctor. Sadly, all those undocumented women died in very tragic accidents and now I need a new one and my sweet love Alicia is that woman.

Perhaps there is another lawyer in that squalor town you live in that can get me a certificate and I will have to go through them like a peanut butter sandwich with extra mayo, eh companion?

Get slapping on that certificate or I will seek other representation.

Speaking of payment, do you use direct deposit or does the money need to be in an international cheque or perhaps a barron's bond? I have sent money in the form of both wire transfer and gold bullion. Please let me know what you prefer.

In your honor and such,

I will be seeking the aid of another barrister who actually knows what he is doing.

I'm sure I can find SOMEONE who can get a simple virginity certificate.

Epic fail.

Sweet love meat Alicia!

Please do not let anyone worry you. I am working with the lawyer. He is going to have a doctor check you out to make sure you are not sick.

I cannot have you sick if you are going to come over to the United States. You must be healthy to make it through the Trials of Mordor that I have planned for you. I have stocked the pantry with 80 pounds of peanut butter!

Ihope you are not alergic!

Alicia,

I have been lying to you. I am sorry.

I tried to have the Barrister run a virginity authenication test on you to make sure you have not been with a man in the bed of sex before.

The barrister has quit the job and we will need to find a new one. I am sorry to cause this trouble for you.

Can you please locate another Barrister? And please find one that will take a wire transfer of funds. I do not want to send a check or cash. Western Union is best but I will take any other trustful wire service.

I am sorry I lied to you. Of course you are clean. I just wanted to make sure you have not lain with man or beast before i penetrate you with my throbbing rod of man muscle.

I too have prayed to God and he said that I need to get you out of the camp and bring you back to the United States so that I can violate his sacred veil that is wrapped around your groin. God also said to use corn on the cob with you as well. Who am I to doubt the word of God and his sweet buttery goodness?

All my love,

Juan

Alicia,

I have another secret to share with you. Please, if you can see it in God's name, do not leave me. If you can keep this secret, I will get the old lawyer back.

I am a gay man. A homosexual. I'm not sure what you call them in you language... perhaps a trough slurper or dark path weiner sniffer. Maybe you might refer to me as a long dong cat stuffing harlot from Kansas City. Either way, I am a man who loves other men.

the reason I need you is so that I can hide my faggotry from others. If my friends and co-workers find out I am gay... it is all over Johnny.

Please... can you find it in your heart to still come and live with me and pretend to be my wife. I will still love you in your buttocks, but only as a man would love another man.

Please tell Mr. Assman the lawyer that I am very sorry and that I will contact him again if you will promise to keep my secret a secret promise.

Promise?

I owe you an apology.

I know you were unable to come up with a Virginity Certificate for Alicia and I am sorry that I told you to go shove a mini-van up your ass. I should have thought that out.

Let's start over...

What information do you need from me so that we can proceed with the money transfer for Alicia? As a gay man, I feel obligated to help this poor girl.

We also need to get the travel arrangements for Alicia finalized. Can you answer the following questions:

1. What airport will she be flying out of?
2. How many bags?
3. Does she need to fly first class?

I am very sorry for all the trouble I caused and will put in an additional $50 as a special reward for your services. Please use this money to buy a shirt or a pair of socks. I would also suggest Enron stock as well as Bears Sterns.

The original amount was $2,250 to release the funds
The costs for travel etc was $2,440
My tip to you is $50

For a total of $4,740

When I convert your Senegal Dollars to American US dollars I get $11.13
{4,740 CFA Franc BCEAO (XOF) = 11.13 US Dollar (USD) }

Please make sure this number is correct and get back to me post haste!

$4,690 US Dollars? I had no idea!!!!!!

That is a lot of money.

So far your services have been good, but if I am to pay that much, I will need the Certificate of Virginity as you originally priced out for me.

I am going to set up the account with Western Union, but I WILL NOT SEND YOU A SINGLE AMERICAN WET DOLLAR until you show me a photo or a scan of the Virginity Certificate. I don't care if a doctor or the Rev. signs a piece of paper, but I need something that is scanned or a photo NOT AN E-MAIL.

I may be gay.

But I am NOT stupid.

Everyone knows that first the virginity test is given and THEN payment is made. I will include the $200 with the rest of the payment.

If you wish, I will break the payments down into two separate payments so that it is easier to make the transaction, but I will not pay any money until I get a photo or a scan of the virginity test.

I am very tired of all this. You are not helping me and your are not helping yourself.

Get me a scan or a photo of the test and then you will get your monies via Western Union.

You should've been gone
Knowing how I made you feel
And I should've been gone
After all your words of steel
Oh, I must've been a dreamer
And I must've been someone else
And we should've been over

Oh, Alicia, our love
Holds on, holds on
Oh, Alicia, our love
Holds on, holds on

Oh, I want to let go
You'll go on hurtin' me
You'd be better off alone
If I'm not who you thought I'd be

But you know that there's a fever
Oh, that you'll never find nowhere else
Can't you feel it burnin'
On-and-on

Oh, Alicia, our love
Holds on, holds on
Oh, Alicia, our love
Holds on, holds on
Oh, Alicia

Oh, Alicia

But I should've been gone
Long ago, far away
And you should've been gone
Now I know you'd lie
You'll stay

Oh, Alicia, our love
Holds on, holds on
Oh, Alicia, our love
Holds on, holds on

Oh, Alicia, our love

Ohio BMV to allow emoticons on license plates

COLUMBUS, OH- The Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles is allowing Ohio motorists to communicate their feelings on their license plates through something you might have seen on the internet or in your e-mail. Marcy Lance, OBMV spokesperson explains, “They’re called emoticons and drivers are going to love them!”

Emoticons are punctuation and letters that when lined up in a certain pattern, can resemble facial expressions. A colon and right parenthesis can make a smiley face :) while a semi-colon and a right parenthesis makes a winking smiling face ;).

Lance calculates that, “…with the addition of sixteen characters, we can add 23,493,332 different license plates to the system. This could bring in an additional $1.5 million per year to the BMV.”

Ohio State Highway Patrol Sergeant Brian Beekey is not as thrilled. “It is very difficult to relay a colon or a semi colon back to HQ. When I am running a plate, I need to know what the letters and numbers are without saying, ‘smiley face’ or ‘disappointed.’ I can't tell the difference between 'flirt' and 'bored!'"

Cheri Bascone, personalized plate owner, was also unhappy, “I waited eighteen years to get the ‘JESUS’ license plate and tomorrow someone will be able to get a ‘JESUS:-P’ tongue sticking out plate? That just ain’t Christian.”


There will be some restrictions to the emoticons. “We will only allow positive expressions,” stressed Marcy Lance. “Sadness, shocked or crying emoticons will not be allowed. We are still up in the air about using asterisks."

Which character does not belong with the others?

Greg and I were playing Garbage Masher on the starwars.com website when this quiz question came up:


And of course the answer was obvious:

Tips for Meeting Your Future Self

At some point, time travel will be invented and your future self will come back to warn you about something. Be prepared by following these tips.

1. Have a secret question

Be wary of evil future selves or clones. If it is actually your future self, they will know the answer to the secret question; something only you would know. Like where you masturbated for the first time (in a bedroom closet.) Don’t make up a secret word (this can be figured out with future technology and “ditto” has been taken.) If your future self doesn’t remember the secret question, kill them with the really sharp knife in your boot.

2. Always carry a sharp knife in your boot.
See #1

3. Immediately ask for the winner of the 20XX Super Bowl.
Time travel will not be cheap and the only way you are going to make enough money to travel back in time is to make a shit load of money betting on sports. That will only happen if you know the actual results of the future games. Your future self will know this and they will have a prepared list of sporting events from the future (their past.) If your future self gives you some bullshit excuse like that it is against the “Laws of Time Travel” or that they are coming back in time to keep you from winning all that money and becoming a rich prick, kill them and analyze their blood to siphon off some futuristic antibiotic or cure-all medicines.

4. Cross your arms and give your future self a disapproving look.
It worked for my friend Erik.


5. Kill your future self

Your future self is nothing but trouble. They’re all full of “doom and gloom” and “don’t do this” and “don’t eradicate that race of peoples.” As soon as your future self answers the secret question, get the future sports questions from them and then kill them with the gun in your other boot (they will know that you keep a knife in your boot and have some sort of futuristic knife protection on.) Collect their blood for testing and then dispose of the body.

6. Always carry a gun in your boot, but forget about it so your future self won’t know you have it.
(See #5.)

7. Get a shit load of insurance on yourself.
Once your future self arrives and before you kill them with the boot gun that you have forgotten about, have them over to your crappy apartment/house and while they are asleep, get a whole lot of insurance out on yourself. Get an ungodly amount of coverage and name yourself as the beneficiary (most insurance companies will completely go for this as they will think it is impossible for you to collect on your own death.) Go back and complete step #5 (except for the dispose of the body) and collect the money for your own death. And don’t let the insurance company claim that it was suicide because you killed yourself.

8. On second thought, kill your future self immediately
Your future self is older and cannot get the level of chick/guy you are dating/married to. In their future, they are having sex with an older, uglier, fatter version of your current lover. They will feel inclined to have sex with your current significant lover because banging your lover in the past is not cheating. Kill them before they have a chance to kill you and get their hands on your younger, hotter, less fat suitor. Use the grenade you have in your back pocket that you must forget about because you can’t seem to forget the gun and the knife and your future self is wearing a bullet proof vest with futuristic knife proof clothing.

9. (I was kidding about the grenade… make it a crossbow)
See #8. Your future self will plan for the grenade and you can surprise them with the crossbow. REALLY...FORGET ABOUT THE CROSSBOW NOW to trick your future self!

10. Plan ahead
The fact that your future self does appear means that at some time in your future you will travel back in time. BE PREPARED! Wear knife proof clothing (available in the future) and a bullet proof vest as well as a nano grenade shield. Take condoms so you can bang your past lover when they were younger and hotter and thinner. Ensure that you send a clone first to make sure your past self is not going to kill you. Before you travel back in time, ingest a boat load of gingko biloba so that if you do die, people in the past will analyze your blood and think it is a cure-all. Write down the past ten years of Super Bowl scores and then change them to fuck with your past self. Lastly, remember that your past self has some kind of medieval weapon strapped to his/her back… I can’t remember which one for some reason, but be prepared for anything.

Insight Communications Deceptive Envelope

My friend Keegan shared with me a few weeks ago about a deceptive envelope he received from Insight Communications on the same day he received a letter from the IRS concerning his Economic Stimulus Payment.

Here are the letters side by side:

Which is which?

Here is the Insight Communications letter with call outs:

Real "detach along perforation" strips, too! I hope that cost them extra.

When the Insight Communications letter was opened, it revealed some bullshit advertisement for saving $575 on a bundled cable/internet/phone package.

Though no old ladies are going to get scammed from this advertisement, I am against anything that is so obviously misleading. There was an obvious attempt to make consumers think that this envelope contained IRS information and it's unfortunate that they would think that any consumer would be dumb enough to be fooled once the letter was un-perforated along the edges and opened.

Keegan, though, was not so fortunate and signed up for the cable deal, thinking that it was required to receive his stimulus check. He now has HBO, HBO1, HBO2, HBO beta and HBOh Shit.

Forehead Spider Tattoo

In the springtime at OU, it was very easy to spend hours in the doorway that led to Dominic, John and Chris’ apartment above Mountain Leather. Sunday afternoons were especially good as many locals would roam the downtown sidewalks and the echoes of my hangover would sweat out and down the back of my shirt. There were several doorways and stoops going up and down the street. You could nestle back in one and watch the flesh go by for hours.

On this particular afternoon, there were several of us loitering on the sidewalk as we spilled out from the doorway. We formed a human speed bump and people had to slow down as they navigated around us.

I was reminiscing with Dominic when I noticed two dudes sauntering down the sidewalk with their shirts off. They had various tattoos and spiky piercings on them. Kids.

The walked around us and continued on their way. I turned and watched them head down the street. When they were out of earshot, Dominic leaned in and whispered, “Did you see this guy with the spider tattoo on his forehead?” I guess I spent too much time checking out their other arm and body tats to notice a spider on whichever’s forehead. I waited until they were out of earshot before starting my tirade.

“Who the hell gets a tattoo of a spider on their forehead?!”

Dominic immediately gave me the wide eyes and whispered “Shhhhhh!”

The dudes were more that half a block away and there was no way I was going to be heard by them so I continued.

“How’s that going to work out in a job interview! Idiot! Which one was it?”

Dominic grabbed me by the shoulders and whispered, “Doug! Shut up!”

Dominic has a soft heart for others and I could understand why he might want me to keep it down, but come on!

That, of course, is when I noticed the guy sitting 10 feet from us in the door stoop next to John’s. He was disheveled. He had crazy eyes. He had a spider tattoo on his forehead.

He also looked very self conscious. If not embarrassed.

I said over my shoulder in the direction of the spider tattoo guy, “But you know what? That takes fucking balls. You’ve got to be a bad mother fucker to get a tattoo on your forehead. Nobody’s going to mess with you!”

And then I ran off like a little girl through the open door and straight up the stairs to their apartment.

I’ve got to feel bad for the dude because it takes some heavy shit falling on your shoulders to get a tattoo on your forehead. Nothing says “I’m fucked up,” more than that. I know there are people out there who get certain tattoos just to have a permanent visible middle finger up to the world. This guy, in the five seconds I looked at him, seemed different. Like he’d been in a Russian prison or a mental facility where the arts and crafts counselor accidentally scheduled painting and needlepoint during the same day of the week.

Or just maybe that dude was just a bad-ass motherfucker and he feels sorry for me.

Greg Catches a Fish



The Fisherman

The Worst Bachelor Party Ever

As a rule, bachelor parties cannot be discussed with anyone outside of other males. As a female, the answer you will get when asking what transpired at bachelor party is the standard issue, “Not much happened. The girls weren’t that hot. We just drank a lot. It was fun, but not crazy.”

An addendum to that law (which I made up) is that Bachelor Parties cannot be discussed until at least eight years have passed since said Bachelor Party. I’ve waited long enough.

Eight years ago, Bob* (most the names in this story have been changed to protect Erik's wife from embarrassment) got married and I was his best man. I planned his bachelor party. This is the mostly true story of what happened that night.

There are three types of bachelor parties. The first type involves a bunch of dudes getting together, drinking and then blowing way too much money at the nudie bar. The second type involves a bunch of dudes getting together, drinking, hiring a stripper(s), and then going out to the nudie bar and spending way too much money. The third type involves a few dudes flying to Vegas and whatever happens between the time when the plane touches down to when you hitchhike back to Ohio with implants and an Elvis riding a unicorn tattoo.

I wanted to throw Bachelor Bob the second type of bachelor party. To properly plan a number two bachelor party, you hire strippers by either randomly going through the yellow pages, by endlessly searching the internet or you need to know somebody. I knew somebody.

Tom* (name not changed because he deserves the credit) worked with Bob and I. Before Tom came to our place of employment, he co-managed several nudie bars in the Columbus area. Sometimes I would meet up with Tom at the nudie bar and he would always have a super hot chick sitting next to him while other super hot chicks would walk by and kiss him on the cheek. Tom was not an especially good looking guy, but the ladies loved Tom.

Since Tom knew all these hot chicks, I thought that maybe he might know one or two that would wear very skimpy clothes to a party, quickly remove them and then sit and wiggle on bachelor Bob's lap. About a month before the party, I asked Tom if he could help me out. “No problem, Dougie. I’ll set you up. As a matter of fact, I’ll be the chaperone and you won’t have to pay anything additional.” (The chaperone is usually the 6’ 8” tall dude with the disgustingly thick muscles that shows up with the girls and makes sure you don’t touch the goods and ensures prompt payment in cash.) Tom pulled out his cell phone and hit a number on speed dial. “Hey Lisa, it’s Tom. Yeah, a good friend is getting married. Can you hook me up with a couple girls for his bachelor party? Great!” We were set. The word went out. Two strippers. No chaperone. Anything could happen.

About ten days before the bachelor party, I started to get worried because I had not heard anything from Tom. We had the location of the party picked out. We arranged for transportation. Everything was set except for the entertainment. I stopped Tom in the hallway, almost exactly where he had made the phone call two weeks earlier. Again, Tom pulled out his phone. Speed dial. “Hey Lisa, it’s Tom. You still got two girls for next Saturday? Great!” We were still set. Tom would pick the girls up on Saturday and bring them to the party.

I called Tom the day of the party. He would be picking up the girls at 8:00pm and have them over to the apartment around 8:45pm.

At the apartment, our friends were cleaning up. Bottles of liquor and mixers were arranged. The refrigerator and two coolers were filled with various beers. We hid a sheet of plastic behind the couch in case things got interesting. As an added bonus, we set up a video camera in an empty beer case. Hidden on top the TV, it had a perfect vantage point to the center of the living room.

Guests started to arrive and the bachelor was not far behind. We drank, smoked and reveled in our great friend and resource, Tom. Boobies.

Tom called around 8:00. He had just got to the place to pick up the girls. He was a little hesitant. His statement to me was, “One of the girls has a little meat on her bones, but she’s still pretty good looking. She’s experienced. The other girl is really hot.” OK. I can live with that. Meat on bones and pretty good looking means fat and ugly. But really hot means really hot. One hot and one not. I could keep one eye closed.

We continued to drink. Tom called and gave us a 10 minute warning.

The guys circled up in the living room. The middle of the room was cleared out. We turned on the video camera.

Tom called… they were coming up to the front door.

The first girl walked in. Hmmmmm.

The first girl walked in and I thought to myself, “Hmmmmm. Well, she is a bit fat and a bit not so good looking.” Not a problem. Save the best for last. Here comes the hottie. Then the second girl walked in.

Oh, SHE was the fat and ugly one. Oh Christ.

The room was dead quiet when Tom walked in behind the girls. “Hey! Let’s party! Get these girls a drink.”

The girls were dressed in various bits of tight animal skin prints and pink and stuff with sequence. Their handbags were made of similar mis-matched materials. These girls were not pretty. Not at all.

Now is a good time to salvage the party. Bring in “Doug’s Stripper Chart.” My stripper chart goes a little like this. Down at the bottom along the X axis, you got a range of looks from “I Just Threw Up In My Mouth Ugly” to “Super Freaking Hot.” Along the vertical Y axis, you’ve got a range of Whoreditude from “Only Takes Top Off” to “Sex With Donkey While Blowing the Groom.” All strippers fall somewhere within the chart. Sometimes you get really hot strippers that only take off their tops. It kind sucks, but you can plot a point outside of the average. Sometimes you get decent looking strippers that do crazy stuff with toys and then put ice down the bachelor’s pants. Plot it! And then sometimes you get what we had… ugly girls.
There was only one thing that could save this party. These girls would have to be off the charts crazy. I waited for them to bring a donkey in the house.

There was no donkey.

What happened that night was the most pathetic bachelor party ever. The girls went upstairs with some alcohol to “change.” They asked for weed. Someone had a little and gave it up. Fifteen minutes later they came back down. They pranced around the room collecting dollars from guys. Before any clothes came off, they ran back upstairs to smoke some more weed.

They came down again ten minutes later and the guys chanted, (we were drunk and I was one of them) “Take it off!” The girls said they would take off their tops only after all the guys did. (Do not imagine it. Just read it.) Eighteen guys, in various stages of beer gut with body hair ranging from pre-pubescent teen to Ron Jeremy, sitting around two really ugly chicks, waiting for them to actually take off a piece of clothing.

The girls suggested a set up for Bob the Bachelor. We laid out the plastic from behind the couch and stuck a chair in the middle. He was blindfolded with his arms tied behind his back. (I’m sure he is still thankful to this day for the blindfold.) His shirt was mostly removed and the girls rubbed some whipped cream from the refrigerator, peaches from the cupboard and I think some shoe polish. They then took off their tops for a few minutes and rubbed their boobies in his face. Whoopie.

Seeing that this is my recollection, I will not bring up the rumor that I jumped in and was rubbing him down with peaches when the blindfold was removed.

In the end, the girls had their tops off for about five minutes. All the time, Tom was watching from the side, yelling at the guys when they started to beg to see a little of the copious amounts of flesh that were stuffed in that spandex. Thanks Tom. The girls left. We found out later that Tom was dating the less ugly one. Thanks Tom you awful bastard. We ended up going to a nudie bar, which helped to wipe those girls from our minds. But I will always be the one to blame for that horrible, horrible bachelor party.

So when I went home and Miss Sally asked how things went, I looked at her right in the eyes and said, "Not much happened. The girls weren’t that hot. We just drank a lot. It was fun, but not crazy.” Sigh.

I’ve spent the last eight years attempting to make up for that debacle. I haven’t been a best man since (word gets out) and I doubt I ever will again.

Oh, the video tape. Thank you God for our inability to line up the lens. The camera was focused on the edge of the beer case. There was sixty minutes of out of focus pink and tiger striped blobs. Or maybe the camera was in focus.

You suck, CNN camera symbol!

I read CNN.com because I don't have time to think about news and political debate, I just want to know how many people died and how good looking the teacher having sex with her students is.

But CNN has made my life difficult because of video. On their front page, they list their headlines and if there is a little camera symbol at the end, it means the link goes to a video. Even if you just click on the text, it goes to the video.



The video starts out with a 15 - 30 second commercial and then dumps into the news video clip from their channel. By the time they get to the goods, I've copied the headline of the news story, searched for it on Google News and found similar print stories.

What inevitably ends up happening is that the original video playing in the background rolls into the next news video in queue, which is more than likely a Nancy Grace bit and in a rush to make her go away, I reset the computer.

I like my local NBC affiliate website because they have the camera symbol, but it is a tabbed option.


You will have to wait until morning.

My friend Renee recently stayed at a La Quinta Inn in Mansfield, OH. She, along with her husband and son, had picked up some to go food and were getting ready to eat in the room. The father and son left the room to go get Cokes. When they came back, the boy was having trouble with the key card so Renee tried to open the door from the inside. As she turned the deadbolt, she heard a loud noise that sounded like the internal mechanisms of the lock dropping. The door would not open. The lock was completely jammed. She was stuck in a third story hotel room. It was 5:00pm.


A view out the window

She called down to the front desk and told them the lock on the door was broken. The front desk said they would send maintenance up to fix it.

When no one showed up after more than a half hour, she called the front desk again and they said, “Oh? You are locked IN the room?” As it turns out, the maintenance person was not on site and had to be called in. He showed up about another half hour later, fiddled around with the lock for a minute and determined that a locksmith would need to be called in. It was now 6:00pm.

The front desk called around for a locksmith. They called Renee back and said that a locksmith would not be available until tomorrow and she would have to wait, locked in her room, until the next morning. She said, (edited for brevity and to clean up the language) “No. Call the fire department.”

The fire department was called in. At first they were going to remove her from the room via the window, but firemen like to bust shit up so they got out the Jaws of Life and pried the door open. (Renee said, “I mean the whole door was moving it was awesome!!) The door opened up at 9:00pm and her son rushed in and gave her a big hug. (Awe!)

Here are the photos of the door.

From the outside


Jaws of Life'd!


From the inside

For her troubles, they got a different room, another free night at any other La Quinta Inn and a meal at The Cracker Barrel next door.

The hotel told Renee this was only the second time this had happened.

The Power of Soup (ver1.2)

A very good friend gave me some of her thoughts on "Soup." I removed the name of the woman and I added a brief, new ending. Some other small edits as well.

Please let me know what you think.

The Power of Soup

In a very small house with two very small windows, lived a woman. She lived alone, but she was never lonely.

If you were to look through the very small windows, you would see a very small bed, a very small chair, a very small table, a very small lamp, a very small painting and a very big stove.

The woman loved to cook. She had a very big kettle to sit on the very big stove. She had a very big spoon to stir whatever was in the very big kettle. The woman could cook about anything, but she especially loved to cook soup.

Pea soup, bean soup, potato soup, vegetable soup, rhubarb and turnip soup, dandelion soup, and her very special soup which she called Soup Soup.

People would come from the villages near and far to the woman’s house and bring whatever ingredients they had so that she could make her delicious soup for them.

Miss Dryer came to the woman’s door, “I have carrots.”

“Then we will make carrot soup.”

Mr. Hearty came to the door. “I have potatoes.”

“Then we will make potato soup.”

The Simon twins came to the door, “We have turnips and leeks.”

“Then we will make turnip and leek soup.”

Somehow, though only one or two ingredients were added, the woman was able to stir and stir and stir and stir and soon that one ingredient would taste like many!

Everyone loved the woman’s soup.

One day, a little dark haired girl with sad eyes came to the woman’s door. She wore handmade clothes that were more patches than cloth.

“Can you please make me some soup?”

“What have you brought with you to make the soup?” asked the woman, knowing the answer.

“I have nothing. My mother is sick and father is away in the city. I have nothing to make soup.”

The woman said, “Come inside. I think you have something to add to the soup.”

The woman added water to the very large kettle. She lit the very big stove and began to stir.

“Now, little girl, you have nothing in your hands and you have nothing in your pockets, but you have something in your heart. All you need is to speak to the soup and tell it what your heart is saying.”

The little girl stood on a little chair and was just able to look over the edge of the kettle.

She spoke in but a whisper, “I love you Mommy. Get well soon.”

The woman then began to stir and stir and stir and stir.

And as she stirred and stirred the soup began to churn and bubble. Broth began to form and carrots and peas and beans and leeks and hundreds of herbs and vegetables and flavors mixed and melded in the pot. With a final stir, letters formed of pasta bubbled to the surface.

First…

“I love you Mommy.”

…and they sank. Then…

“Get well soon.”

As the sun began to dip in the afternoon and create its own colorful soup in the sky, shadows of a smaller person and a bigger person together carried a very big kettle towards the village.

The next morning, the woman arrived back to her very small house with two very small windows. She carried with her a much emptier kettle, a simple bouquet of wildflowers and a very big smile.

As she walked in the door she said to herself, "I think I'll make some soup today."

Lighthouses in Old Worthington

It seems that developers are going out of their way to market their apartments in landlocked Old Worthington, OH. They are not mundanely giving away ceiling fans or trying to make their neighborhood fancy by adding an "e" to old and calling it Olde Worthington. Instead, they've built a lighthouse and created a small ocean. At least that what it looks like in this scenic advertisement.





Of course, I could be mistaken. Sorry Jen.

Player bites referee and removes jersey to hide identity.

There was a story the other day out of Delaware concerning an irate soccer player who bit a referee on the chin. A photographer on the scene caught the incident on camera. You can read the story here on CBS3.com. The website has a video of photos.

I have a photo of the video of the photos which I thought was particularly funny:


The guy that bit the referee removed his shirt so that he could conceal the number on his uniform and thus his identity. He almost got away with it!

Father's Day Tie Fighter

At pre-school, Greg made me a tie for Father's Day.


He drew some X-Wing Fighters and some Tie-Fighters on it. I guess when his teachers said that they were going to make a tie, he got stuck in Star Wars mode.

I wore it for about six hours.

I highly recommend www.says-it.com for all your sign generator needs. I don't really have any sign generator needs, but I seem to make them up as I go along.

Congrats to Mel and Jason!!

In fifteen years, Lilly will look two years older than her father. (That beard ain't foolin' anyone.)

Yo! photo

A few weeks ago I went to the CD release party for The Hot Damn… (My five year old son thinks the name of The Hot Damn is actually the Electric Pickle because I couldn’t rightly say I was going to see a band with the word damn in it and when I asked him to guess the name of the band, he suggested Electric Pickle, a band he heard on Scooby Doo, so it stuck.)

A few weeks ago I went to the CD release party for The Electric Pickle, which was held at a little venue called The House of Crave. The House of Crave is strategically located next to the Lifestyles Communities Pavilion, which you might think would be a swingers club, but is actually an indoor/outdoor concert arena. That night, Rick Ross was doing a show at the LC and in front of the concert hall was “Yo! photo.”

“Yo! Photo” is some guy with a bed sheet, some paint, a 1” brush, a section of a chain link fence, a few clamps, a white board, a digital camera, a color printer, a crocheted lawn chair and a dream.


The dream became a reality when Yo (I think that is his name) painted a royal purple convertible on a bed sheet and thought to himself, “I bet you people would pay $10 to get their photo taken in front of this.”

From my vantage point on the patio of The House of Crave, I could not see that dream coming to fruition. I just couldn’t see people wanting to give up $10 to have their photo taken in front of a large, purple slice of ass.


The Rick Ross show ended and people started to pour out the doors.

And they headed straight for Yo! Photo.

In about thirty minutes, we saw eight groups of people stand in front of the purple turd and smile as Yo took their photo. My rough math says that is about $80, but it also looked like he was printing up multiple photos. The price of additional photos wasn’t on the white board, but I assume it was $5 a print. The guy probably pulled down $150 just in that half hour.

As soon as I can find a length of chain link fence and a bedsheet, I’m going to have a dream too.
