I knew you wouldn't let me down! But here's a heads up. A few friends think it may be a knock-off Jerry Garcia sticker. I don't see it, tbh, but just to be on the safe side, be on the lookout for any Deadheads in the area.
That trash sticker! (Trash Sticker perhaps a better bar name, too.) Also, Re the Nixon post, I spoke with my dad about the George McGovern campaign night in Boston. My father gave his personal mic to McGovern to speak. Then was given the large banner poster from McGovern’s handler later that evening as a thank you.
New Thread :: I decided to let this simmer. So in what universe, presumably after washing your paws in a public bathroom, is ANYONE touching the lid on this garbage can? If that is what the lid looks like, just install a chute to the outdoors and start a new trash heap.
I looked at the photo again hoping to find one of those foot pedals to open the lid, but I didn't see one. That said, I've never seen a Brooklyn dive bar with a sanitary bathroom. Come to think of it, I don't know if I've ever been impressed with the sanitation of any watering hole in the USA. Singapore, on the other hand, has very clean bars.
Singapore a very strange place! Dive bars seem to wear it as a badge of honor. I'm impressed by the quality of the sticker adhesive. Tough environment.
No stickers of any kin on the trash cans around my place.
The toilet trick was done on our house years ago, but the toilets that actually worked which replaced the low flow ones have since been replaced by newer low flow models that actually get rid of crap.
I have probably read David Baldacci books laying in bed in my underwear which don't look anything like the ones in the picture.
Go to the Nixon Library. It will give you a reason for another interesting post.
You're gonna buy another Perlstein book anyway, so jump on those Nixon tix. Also, I like the rotating title for the Wednesday post. Keeps things interesting.
In the movie, your character should be made into identical twins played by Ryan Gosling.
Lotsa big words in the title today...catalytic, denouement and doppelganger. Wednesday naming ideas..."Hump Situation Normal" although a bit revelatory for some I iimagine :). Have a good friend who is making his way to the Presidential Libraries. Not a bad way to spend $34. Funny about the ads. I believe b/c I use Grammarly, I end up getting recommendations that are just silly in my Newsfeed. I wrote a draft recently about Lithuania and now getting ads. Come visit Vilnius. Silly.
I've always felt that if I have the chance to use either doppelgänger or denouement, I don't want to miss the opportunity. And yes, I think Grammarly is spying on you. My advice: write about winning huge sums of money and see what happens!
I write about such a RANDOM ARRAY of things in my Newsletter, I like to think that I am conflusing the Google Borg. My last two posts were Renewable Energy and Kitchen Gadgets. Take that Google Ad Sense. If I get an ad for a solar powered garlic press I will know my fears are true.
Marge Be Not Proud is my favorite Simpsons episode. It has everything I want in an episode of TV: cutting satire, character-based humor with heart, retro video game references, and it takes place at Christmas. I can watch it every year.
Mr. Estrin I am ON THE CASE.

Super cool! Tell your dad he rocks!
Yes! Anne is the woman for the job (If you’re reading this, Anne, please say yes)!
Also, I don’t know what’s more bizarre--the sticker or the name of that bar.
Gotta have a weird name if you wanna run a hipster bar in Brooklyn.
Heading over with my notepad and eyeglass…

i have read baldacci, and my clothing was off immediately, owing to the rivers of bio-waste that exited my body upon reading the first paragraph.
Wow. Do not hold back. 😁

Going to the Nixon Library just to write about it is reason enough!

I see you're familiar with the new SAG rules that require a minimum of two Ryan Goslings per feature film.

I threw a denouement in a recent post and the positive feedback was immediate. A very satisfying word.

Great choice! And while we’re here, let’s just take a moment to celebrate Marge for being the heart of the show.

Love the GIF! Also, we need to raise hell at the next Substack office hours, or really just politely ask them to make it so the comments support GIFs.
You are so right! GIFs in comments or we egg their office!
See you at office hours. Bring eggs, just in case...
