Weird thing that happened in a thrift yesterday: Found a sweet Paul Stuart tweed overcoat. Pulled it off the rack for a closer look, and a live yellow jacket crawled out from inside onto the lapel.

Got so startled I tossed it back on the rack and booked it out of there, didn't look back.

LOL. Yeah I once pulled a coat out of a rack, and there was a decent sized cockroach crawling around in it. Took it outside and shook it out, then returned it back to the rack. Management was pleased they weren't the ones dealing with it... and that I didn't freak out and make a scene lol.


You gotta go back for that Pauly S though, mang.

Godammit all of you guys with your killer finds this weekend. I hope some of that trickles down to me soon.

At least I got to see Kraftwerk from the 5th ******* row this weekend.

So there!

At some point I will get caught up on the 1200 posts I've missed, but I wanted to give a huge shout-out to @capnwes for the new father package:

After a couple of days of false labor and a REALLY long day of actual, we were blessed with our new trad-gent-in-progress. Meet Harrison David:

you were right to scram.

one time i was on a hike in my local hills and i saw an old-timer doing some restoration work on a hillside. i asked him what he did to keep ticks off him as he worked in the brush. he said he didn't worry about that: "ticks aren't the most dangerous thing out there" he said. so what is? i asked, half-afraid of what he might say next. "yellowjackets."

yellowjackets.
