The Life and Times of Jim |
Hi, there. I'm Jim. Welcome to my phlog! This site was written for Las Vegas, then LouisVille. Now, it seems to be about anywhere. In these phlogs, you'll see a lot of my personal notes and pictures. I like to post my observations here to remember life and celebrate it. I'm not religious. I don't pray for good fortune. I'm ecstatically grateful for the gift of life and I think our time should be remembered and not taken for granted. I'm not a writer. I think pictures tell stories so much better than words. I love just about everything in this life, and, I guess that would have to include you. So, if you've seen me, don't be surprised if your picture is in here somewhere. Of all the critters, people are absolutely the most interesting. |

The Skylark Cafe is supposed to be a sought out dance bar / supper club... It was okay, but I kind of expected more. It was small, but I'd think it could be a lot of fun after 9pm. We left there at 8pm. Their Monte Cristo is the best I've had since the 70's (at the old Mgm). The turkey, ham and swiss sandwich was fried in egg batter, and was done very nicely. Becky had a Reuben which was made with marbled rye. The food was textbook perfect. We stopped by the Show Box. Young girls were standing in the parking lot, dressed up to the hilt. I thought My truck just went "WHOA, what's this?". We swing in, and check it out. The owners had converted an old brick walled warehouse into a show room / bar. It was big inside, but I thought it lacked the charm of a renovated warehouse. I thought it tried to look too modern, with its black and gold theme. They were having a fashion show inside at a the cost of $25 a ticket. There was a runway for the models, with those metal fold up chairs you see at high schools lining up along the side of it. Somehow, I just wasn't impressed. |

It was Renee's knot. They've been married for a while now. This was their late ceremony. We were tempted to jump up there... |

How do you know we didn't get married ? bwaaaahahahaha. Hopefully, most beautiful women marry into wealth. I've do have some real estate stuck to my shoes, some silver in Oral Bank and some CDs in my portfolio case. These days, I'm an oil barren, a money mongol, and my next house will be a manufractured home. Why, why, why couldn't my last name be Rockefeller? |

We drove around, pushing through the cold Seattle Easter afternoon, trying to find a place to share a feew warm smiles. Finally, we came to an interesting place in Queen Anns.
We ended up at Julia's. The atmosphere was great, the service was friendly, the food was wonderful and price was under $25. The restaurant was a house at one time. The waiter and host we very friendly. On a laugh, the waiter told us he was Cher, and the Bunny was Madonna at Le Faux. And the host dug up a brochure. We finally found a cool restaurant !!! Below is a picture of the wine cellar. |

I got a FLOWBEE. It's a hair clipper that attaches to any wet vac. My hair is getting bushy and I figured, since I'm going to have to spend some money anyway, why not spend it on something that will pay for itself. Hopefully it works okay. You set if for two inches, turn everything on, and it sucks your hair into a tube and cuts it. All the trimmings go into the vacuum. Our bed sprung a flat! So we sprung for another Coleman inflatable bed. Inflatable furniture is kind of nice. It's cheap to replace, and you always have new furniture!!! Nobody will ever complain about your old couch. You can even keep replacements in your closet. I'm hoping someday someone will invent an inflatable house that fits in a backpack! |
