Jeremy & James
and...HEY, spot the cat in this picture! I just saw it. These guys are playing
the old game called
MOUTH FULL OF FIRE ANTS.
In Ohio the grocery
stores are called GIANT EAGLE. There is also a restaurant called MR. HERO. When
I was
a kid in North Olmstead there was a Mexican Restaurant called CAP'N TACO. If
you opened a health food
store in Streetsboro you could name it NOBODY IS GOING TO SHOP HERE SO WE ARE
GOING TO GO
OUT OF BUSINESS SOON.
See those dishes?
I didn't do them, NO WAY. That shirt slays me and I don't even have a sister.
In an unrelated
thought, I really don't think I like when people say "RIGHT ON". When
people say PIN NUMBER, that drives me
bonkers too. And do you know that store DALLAS SHOE WAREHOUSE? Well, now it's
called DSW SHOE WAREHOUSE
which really just means DALLAS SHOE WAREHOUSE SHOE WAREHOUSE, I get mad at so
much stuff.
This cat is called
Julia, she has a giant sack of loose skin on her belly. She is a yowler and
is sweet and likes wet food
which is so totally gross because of that gel that it comes in.
This is the food
at Chrissie Hynde's mega-vegan restaurant in Akron. Do you see that pickle on
that plate? That
should give you some kind of idea of the food hi-jinx that go here. I ordered
the orange construction
paper cardboard mountain that you see at the bottom of the picture. There's
an infamous story about Chrissie in Ohio
that she put a cigarette out on a patron's hamburger at a Country Kitchen late
one night in the early 1990s.
So, apparently it's totally ok to inhale burning rat poison and then ruin a
person's meal but it's not such a good idea
to, um, I don't know...EAT? If you're a vegan that smokes, you mostly have no
idea what you're talking about, ever.
The economy in Akron,
Ohio is in such good shape that they can advertise this sort of thing rather
freely.
I call this digital
photo "Jim Newberry & I Used This Bathroom On The Way To Memphis, TN
2008". As an
avid shutterbug himself, Jim took a number of pictures in Memphis as well. THEY'RE
LENSTASTIC!
This ice cream cone
is in Hayti, Illinois.
WELL, WELL, WELL,
it looks like old Bob Mehr finally unpacked his belongings and decided to stay
a while.
O ne night Jim & I assembled everybody and Memphis and asked WHO HERE DOESN'T
KNOW BOB MEHR?
Absolutely nobody raised their hand and then a voice came from the crowd to
ask, DO YOU WANT
SOMETHING FOR FREE?
That's Mr. Hayes'
kooky blue Cadillac. It's going to drive Scientology into the cosmos!
STAX BATHROOM, SO
CLEAN.
I called Bill Eggleston
and I was all like, SHOULD I TAKE A PICTURE OF THE SIGNS AT McLEMORE
& COLLEGE? He as all like YEAH DUDE, DO IT!
OH MAN, THIS SO
RULES.
As I took this picture
some teenagers rounded the corner near me and said, "What do you think
you're doing?" To which
I could only reply, "I don't know".
WE GOT THE HOT FISH!
IT WAS GOOD! It turns out that's an off-color term for women for sale, J/K!
HERE IS HOT FISH!
This is a nice lady, she thought I was Richard Greico, so I was all like, "WHATEVS".
This Memphis cat
had ticks! We named it HOT FISH. Next door was a housewarming party with a league
of goons drinking Coors Light, Newbs got to second base with a successful realtor!
This sign is at a Comfort Inn in Streetsboro, Ohio. The people at this hotel
are very friendly!
Here is another sign from the same place. YOU WILL NOT GET A REFUND!
This bird is thinking about eating my eyes, it totally hates my guts. I had
to feed it grapes n' stuff.

I went to school at this place! I used to cry because I did not know how to
write in cursive. That stuff is hard!
I went to school here too! That stain has been on the roof for 28 years, no
joke.
The people that own this bakery used to live across the street from me on Kennedy
Ridge Road
in North Olmstead, Ohio. I hit one of them in the eye with a rock when he was
8. I also think he
took my Atari 2600 controller. The canolli here are just ok.
YES, OHIO, VERY
BEAUTIFUL.
Hey Dom, sorry this wasn't as good as usual. I really want to go to sleep.
