@BigToe -- hi, friend!
 
Good morning.

8179b530237c2c657e2b17bd4b00c02e.gif


We start the day with @Asnito on the clock, @CanadianFlyer88 on deck, @GKJ on the lido deck with two picks to make, and Chuckles on the lido afterdeck. ajgoal and mja have to make up picks also.

I'm really f***ing bored at the moment. I don't know why it has hit me all of a sudden, but it has. Later will be fine, once the football starts, but right now I'm just feeling the ennui. "Employee of the Month" is on - in case you aren't familiar with this f***ing thing, it stars Dax Shepard, Jessica Simpson, and Dane Cook. Dax can be all right, but often he is a complete tool. Jessica Simpson is insanely hot as balls. Dane f***ing Cook remains part of the biggest mystery in the history of entertainment. Arguably the least funny "comedian" who ever lived (though Kevin Hart is doing his damnedest to steal that crown). Arguably the most universally hated "celebrity" of all time. How in the f*** did this f***ing guy ever get off the launchpad? I'll tell you how banal this guy is - he is so banal that even mentioning his name, much less complaining about him (as I have just done), makes the mentioning complainer a banal douche just like the target of the mentioned complaining.

As you can see, his mere presence on my television has turned my brain to shit. Oh well, nevermind. See you later.
 
OK, let's try this again.

While the offer to select one particular band is indeed generous, and the idea of being able to have a monopoly on, say, Nirvana t-shirts, as to therefore ensure that only those who can actually name a Nirvana song can indeed wear them is tempting, I think I'm going to go in an adjacent direction.

See, most of my teen years were spent in a very specific uniform, a main item indeed being a Nirvana t-shirt. I owned all of these back then:

il_570xN.1877605883_hay2.jpg


The internet informs me that these are now worth thousands of dollars and they're probably all rotting away in a dark corner in a random trash bag in my parents' old basement, that is if my father didn't already toss them.

The other part of my uniform was worn over top of the t-shirt but left open to complete the look.

For your cooperation you can raid the vintage band t-shirt closet on the FOG compound whenever as long as you return them in the same condition they left in.
 
One can never look too well put together. One should also know when you are supposed to arrive. If you're early, you're on time. If you're on time, you're late. If you're late, you're screwed. Indeed, accurate knowledge of time was important for ensuring that trains didn't wreck themselves, and accurate timepieces remain important for navigation on the high seas. Sure, time might not be a construct of importance in the Quackverse, but it seems likely to be a significant aspect of physics anywhere. So we will ensure that everyone with us not only has an accurate timepiece, but that they look respectable wearing it as well.

I don't remember who first suggested it, but "Team Retro Clothing Item" was an excellent idea.

We start the day with @CanadianFlyer88 on the clock. @GKJ is on deck with a pair (phrasing), but he is completely ignoring me, which is awesome. @Chuck Downie is on the lido deck, and my brother is on the lido afterdeck. Asnito has a make-up pick to make when he comes on.

You know how I told you that the new chickens have started to hang out on the back deck, right outside my door, ever since it got cold? Well, the back deck is now a minefield of chicken shit. It's always best in the morning when the chicken shit has frozen overnight. That's when you can really do some carefree walking. The rest of the day they are tommygunning chicken diarrhea all over. Know what else they have started to do? They have started to jump up and try to eat the food when I go out there with food in my hand. Sometimes their dumb bird beaks clip my fingers. I think that shows bad manners, but who the f*** knows what goes on with chicken etiquette.

Speaking of chicken shit, we have a game tonight. You excited?

As @Beef Invictus has chosen us as his team rival, we now choose an ancient civilization to mirror this rivalry.

It is argued that Hadrian's Wall is one of Rome's beacons of ingenuity and one of their most recognizable displays of the might of their empire. To those in the know, it is actually a display of their cowardice; in fact, you could even call them quitters for not taking over the entirety of Britain.

Hadrian's Wall cut off the north of the island of Britain from the southern part, which was occupied by the Romans. The Romans were terrified of the barbarians north of the wall. Had they not been so cowardly, we may never have seen the likes of The Old Course at St. Andrews or been able to enjoy Speyside whiskey.

We owe our thanks to these barbarians that protected what is modern day Scotland and, therefore, the Seattle Sockeyes are humbled to select the Picts as our ancient civilization.
