An awesome day of positivity... a picture documentary

Rate: 25 Flag

Now that I'm done kicking Amy T.'s ass on all this vaccine stuff I can return to my "normal" life. At last report Amy had retreated to the bowels of Harvard to re-group. Have no doubt that she'll back with some wacky shenannigans by sunrise, and also no doubt that no matter how wacky it is that it will be prominent on the cover of this esteemed virtual publication.

When that happens and we all know it will, I will take three deep breaths and pray to Jesus, Allah, and Tinkerertink69 that  I am able to ignore it all. Actually that should be pretty easy because I have gainful employment this week; will be gone all day and hopefully too tired when I get home to even look. Thusly I pray.

I know the vaccine crap was and is tiring but I felt it was necessary to debate. Remember at all times my friends that we are free to think independently and that questions are normal and healthy.

A toast to our health!!! (the divine clinking of fine crystal)

 

So as a wise and enlightened man once said (Ace Ventura: pet detective), alrighty then... and as I say now, onwards and upwards.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Last night the kid (descendant of Odin, Charlemagne, some bog stompers from Scotland and yes ME) went to his girlfriends homecoming. The little bugger has a decent sense of fashion (NOT inherited from me) as you can see below......

  He had a great time reportedly: even kicked some kids ass on the dance floor where he left his competitor agape by doing an exact replica of the moonwalk. 

 This morning I discovered the girlfriend here when I awoke. The two of them demanded breakfast, and of course I cooked and served it up --this being my lot in life; pancakes and deli ham slices fried up with butter and maple syrup.

 Then the business of the day. MY New Orleans Saints and the New York Giants, both undefeated before today were playing at noon, and due to the Chiefs playing also at noon we had to find someplace with satellite that was showing the game.

 The place we found was Johnies Tavern, 1310 Grand Avenue in Kansas City Missouri at the new and splendiferous Kansas City Power and Light district. Mini-me donned his Saints T and his black bikers bandana and we blazed a trail to Johnies.

 This person anchored the bar. After she signed my waiver stating that her image was mine to publish and distribute on the internet I consented to taking this picture...

 The bar wench sold me on the bloody mary bar. They serve up a shot of Bombora on ice at which time you just go over and finish making it yourself at this little table.

   Little did they know there at Johnies that I would make a meal out of this "bloody mary bar". These people had a vat of  huge green olives that were stuffed with bleu cheese or feta, or a combination, who knows. Whatever! They were freaking delicious. I didn't count exactly but along with the celery sticks and pepperoncinis and pickles and lime slices I had upwards of 20 stuffed olives. I've been wanting to go vegetarian anyway so this might have been the impetus I needed to get me started in the right direction. The universe always give me hints like this...

 Here I am, the Trigosaurus... going vegan.

MY Saints kicked the Giants ass handily. Final score 48-27. New Orleans remains undefeated; the Giants, well... not so much. The Saints are the real deal this year and for football fans, watch out! 

And Damn the Kansas City Chiefs even won their first game this season beating Washington 14 to 6. Woo hoo! The Chiefs are now 1 and 5 and of course we expect them to finish the season at 11 and 5 and go to the playoffs.......NOT.

 

Just a day in the life here from your highly paid OS correspondent TRIG.

 

Have a good week everyone. Keep your eyes open for bullshit while you enjoy your upcoming week. I know I will...

My bull shit detector is on the fritz, so you're in luck!

You are Trig, Jr. are a handsome pair! What capers you two have!
Looks like a good time - I love your son more every time you post about him, if my daughters were just a decade older...

By the way, if you were truly going Vegan (vs. vegitarian), you'd have to take the cheese out of the olives and replace it with something made of tofu or nuts (no anmial products, not even eggs). I fear that would make you a very disappointed Trigosaurus.
Wow, that sounds like fun!!!
That vegan shit is for the birds, oops, most birds aren't vegans either cause they eat insects.

Glad to hear that you provide a nice breakfast to your son's sleep over guests, I hope that he returns the favor.
Ahh Cathy (I finally made it to your post and I'm still wiping tears). As far as I know there were NO CAPERS at the bloody mary bar, but there were several pearl onions that I forgot to mention.

Danget mamoore I knew I was (or might be) talking BS about all that vegan thing. Thanks for the clarification :). Glad you like my son too. Your daughters will be there faster than you can blink

Owlie you always blow my mind in your ability to get to EVERY POST ever posted on OS. Wherever I venture I see you there before me. It WAS a good day and thank you.
It's nice to know I'm not the only one who prays to the Tink. Congratulations on a fantastic day!
I will have to check this out from home, pics are blocked at work!!

"Actually that should be pretty easy because I have gainful employment this week"

YEAAAAA on the gainful employment!! Is the male strip club still paying well? I haven't danced there in months.

Maybe this winter.

(I'm the one ugly dude out of the 99 hot guys!! ;D)
The most important picture is out of focus. Damn you!
Ablonde... birds eat insects? Oh yeah, they do don't they. I will fail as a vegetaranarian, let alone a vegan...sigh. Someday the kid will have to serve me and my geriatric girlfriend. He is aware of this!

Stevie Blevins~ it could be possible that you and I prayed to the Tink in unison before. Wow!

TINK! I could maybe make $$$ as a stripper, if I didn't have to remove my clothing... Come back and check the pics later my King.

Duane, I know, right! I was unhappy with that pic but still had to include it. Sorry about them there G-Mens dude..
looks like you had a bitchen time, you two cute guys. bar wench had a *big* smile and your camera hand was quivering a tad. both good signs...
TrigX Sure did look handsome in the tux.. And the Saint T also. I do have to say he has a way with fashion, not to mention the charm that he also carries so well.
Glad your saints won. Way to go Saints.. and OMG the Chiefs won- shocking.. maybe one day they will come back.. NOT.. I missed the games,, damn it! I am going to have to get dish hooked up because I LOVE football..
Great post Trigger!!!
What a day! It's just ever so good to see good people having so many good times. Thanks for sharing something that just makes us all smile involuntarily.

Vegans have white fat. That ain't right. There's something wrong with that.
femmy my dijji camera is weird. It has a "pause" or something. Drives me freeking nuts and berries. Forgive me please for not getting to your post yet (ooops), will be there presently.

Fireeyes :) the Chiefs game which was on most of the 50 flat screens at Johnies was excruciatingly boring. I watched them too of course though, and was happy of the outcome of course. Now the Saints... they went up the field so seemingly effortlessly against the "class of the NFL" the Giants... well it was poetry in motion.
Thanks about X. He is a jewel to be sure..
Zuma you are welcome for the smiles... Don't think I'm gonna hang with the vegan thing. I am an animal and I NEED flesh.
Focus! You should have gotten a better pix of da philly. Ty 4 sharing your friends and family with us.
X looks pretty sharp in his homecoming duds. And the Chiefs won? Woo hoo is right, and I need to get down to Johnny's to check out that bloody mary bar.
"Trigosauraus"... LOL!
You rock! Pretty sure I've said this before, but I'll say it again--I wanna party with you!

btw...did you get to see the Patriots game? Blackout here in Phoenix, but I was on the phone with my Sis...what a blow out!
:-)
Trudge my friend I apologize for the third time here. Dat philly wouldn't hold still! Or was it me?

Nanahoo you know the deal at the P&L. And yeah, go figure the Cheifs won too. The kid was looking sharp last night and today too. Like I said he has a fashion sense. His momma taught him how to dress and I should give her credit there I suppose.

Hi Spots... I missed Vegas. Well, maybe one of these days.
Yeah I watched the Pats til it got boring which wasn't long.
It was snowing!
Employment, you say? Sounds exhausting.
Looks like a great weekend!
Looks like a great weekend!
HSL... employment is so- how do they say? Blase'. I hate it.
What a stud that TrigX turned out to be. Must come from his mother's side...
Jlynne kisses and hugs and I love you. How was the trip to Nebraska huh?

Cap'n.. yes the boy got most of his manly qualities from Mom. dammit.
I had to get drunk to pull the bar maid into focus, but she's a cutie.
Mr. O'Rourke. As always you crack me the f' up!
I wouldn't be surprised if that bloody mary bar pays you a little visit later...

Your son looks quite dapper. I wish when I was his age, my dad would have been happy for my happiness and cooked me and my boyfriend breakfast. I hope he appreciates the specialness of that :-)
Dan, I wouldn't be surprised either

Dan, I wouldn't be surprised either

Sandra.. he appreciates it. We appreciate each other. Thank you so much.
Hey Trig, needed this day of positive stuff, thanks. God i could go for that drink, being in a cool bar and meeting an anchor (in my case male) for some fun and pictures. Thanks for sharing.
Love when you talk about the kid! :)
you can never go wrong with pepperoncinis.
Damn, that second pic's guys in the background, well two of them, are checking you out, the one stuffing his face might be checking you out to eat you(in that bad way!!!!) and the other, eek!!!!

The bar gal looks pretty all blurry!! ;)

And OLIVES???? Oh nummy nummy nummmmmmmmmmmy!!!

:)
Bloody Mary bar? HELLO! I am so there. (except for the fact that I remain here in Bumfuck. T'aint an olive to be found...)
I gotta' find this bar. I don't drink anymore but I love stuffed olives!
I love that jacket he was wearing. Would have killed for one myself when I was his age. :-D

Regarding the good doctor, you should do what I do - completely ignore her, pretend she does not exist. I see a blank space where her posts show up on the feed. Seems like any time you make points in the comment stream she deletes them, so why bother? It isn't worth the rise in blood pressure, dude.

Thumbed for partying with the offspring.
I love Sunday morning football at the bah! It's even better in California, when my Patriots would often start at 10AM local time and the bah was the ONLY place to see them. I've never seen a Bloody Mary bah though. I'd like to find one of those. And I was so pleased to see your Saints take down the Giants. Fun post!
Hi Rita... took me a minute to get the male anchor thing...duh!

I'm glad you like Zashin

scoubidoo, a pepperoncini marinated in a bloudy mary for a while is perty darned good.

Damn Tink, I didn't notice that guy looking at me like a hungry wolf!

Ginny Rose.. I had two bloody mary's, total 8 dollars. Not only did I get the drinks but about 20 bucks worth of gourmet stuffed olives.

scanner.... I gave ya the address man!

Bill S. I was doing good at ignoring her. Really I was... til I saw that dumb vaccine shilling thing. I know, I'm bad.

yes ma'am miss gwendolyn.. a good day-- good weekend

Kellylark says "fun post" and I say thank you. That was the idea alright :)
Trig Jr.'s got some swanky style. niiiiice.
He is pretty fashion conscious Caroline... thanks!

And I wanted to show people that I DO have a left side of my face.
