JCVD

I’m going to be watching this tonight. Seems interesting. I had a few friends that were really into him. I just thought he talked funny. Most of the action heros of the 80’s talked funny.

I wasn’t Suppose to Work Today

I was suppose to be off since they were closing both streets at my corner with the hot dog stand. They were having the funeral for the firefighter at Harris Stowe right down the block and the body was then driven right past my corner down olive.

So I get a call at 6am and the guy that owns the cart was thinking maybe we should go up there anyways. Which I did and it was harder than I had expected. I set up and then all the fire engines started rolling down Compton onto grand to line up and raise their ladders to make an arch across the street. It was hard not to get choked up when you saw the firefighter grow from a few dozen to hundreds. There were engines rolling in from Ladue, Hazelwood, and even Cedar Hill. Yes they were the only yellow truck there. We decided to sell the dogs to anyone in uniform for $2 instead of $3.50. It just sort of seemed like the right thing to do. I had one firefighter come get a dog early that morning and ask if the gas station sold beer this early. He didn’t ask in a shady way He was asking as if to say I can’t handle this shit today. Which is funny I was thinking the same thing. I don’t get choked up on patriotic stuff often. To see so many firefighters coming together to show honor to a fallen firefighter was overwhelming at times. When John the guy that owns the cart showed up around noon he got there right as they were driving the casket down Compton to Olive. He said shit I didn’t think this was going to get to me, but it really is. He had to walk away and then told me that his father was an IL state trooper and had died 5 years ago.

Out of all the firefighters I severed dogs to today only one made a shitty comment about being down there only to make money off the crowd. I think the exact wording he used was “So you tough you could come down today and make a little money” I was polite and said Sir we are down here on this corner 5 days a week. He just said “Yeah ok” Also everyone coming up to get a dog was expecting full price and when I told the police and firefighters it was $2 today for anyone in a uniform they were genuinely appreciative. They also went out of there way to thank me. Rough fucking day is all I can say.

Heres Fox 2’s coverage

Hot Dogs Ladys

I’m stealing the title from Merlin Mann. So I’ll be brief. I’m working a Hot Dog cart stand now. I’ll see what happens. Might turn out to be a living. There is a lot of money potential.

That Basketball was Like a Basketball to Me

Ok so I was playing around with Logic Pro again tonight. I started playing this melody on the keyboard and it sounded familiar. I was like what the hell is this tune. Then it dawned on me. It was the guitar riff in Basketball Jones.

This lead me to reminisce about the first time I heard cheech and chong albums. Which lead me to my favorite line. “How many joints in a lid” from “Lets Make a Dope Deal” When I googled How many joints in a lid to find out the name of that track I got this.

of course we all know the answer is 2. Answers.com says so

I swear this is coincidental

I had two fired chicken thighs cooking for dinner. When I sat down to eat them I started watching the online CNN stream. Then I learn that Obama took Ohio. Im not racist, but racist humor is always funny. Especially when its not intended.

I then almost choked on that chicken when the CNN anchor lady (in and english accent) says that Obama is leading in Mexico. I had to look up and make sure she meant New Mexico.

Only thing I’m missing is hot sauce.

My Election Day

So I’m in line at the grocery store when a Bosnian in his mid 50’s starts chatting me up. Bosnians 60 and up don’t even speak English and the ones in there 50’s speak very broken English. So HEs going on about “today we get a new president” The next thing he said I didn’t understand, but ended in “this just crazy.” The last thing he said to me was “I hope Obama win tonight. Then I can go home.

I could tell the guy behind me really wanted to say something to him along the lines of “you ungrateful immigrant.”. I’m sure the guy behind me wouldn’t have said it as kindly as I just typed it. Fortunately he guy behind me just kept his mouth shut. The first thing I was curious about was why this guy thought Obama would make it easier for him to move back to his homeland. I totally understand someone his age wanting to to go home. I just couldn’t understand why he thought a new president would allow him to go home. Does he think hes being held here like hes in some an interment camp? Or does he think a new president is going to make his homeland a better more stable place? I really wanted to ask him more on the topic, but I just didn’t want to ruin his happy mood.
