So i just called Twin Peaks and they will be closed, even though the 29 varieties of their draft beer are completely independent of the city's water system. The customer service rep/lady lumberjack answering had to confirm with the head lumberjack. I am outraged. Heading to Danny's and Black Diamond for beer and boobies (for equal opportunity purposes).
The beer may be independent of the city water system, but after five of them, when you go to take a leak and wash your hands, there you are without water.
After five beers, who can remember to wash their hands? Only a snowflake would let that stop them from boobies and beer.
But I bet you would like your beer mugs to be washed, not just wiped clean by a dirty wash rag.
Hey, man, long as he got boobies to stare at, he'll piss his drawers and not even notice. It was Bear Bryant who said to his running backs, "When you get in the end zone, act like you've been there before". With apologies to Bear, the old fat geezers who sit on bar stools drooling at the sight of tits ought to at least act like they've seen a set before.
Apologies to Bear and football, but there are some inflatable devices out there that I never get tired of staring at.
If you don't pee on your hands, do you still have to wash them?
So it has come to this - the repair of a water leak in the City of Jackson is so rare that they have to issue a news release to announce it? Will there be a ribbon cutting? Balloons and rides for the kids?
Will the leak actually be repaired, or will they open up a hole only to find that they need a bigger can of "flex seal" ??
Well, 1:11, I was also going to say "so it has come to this", but I was going to reference all of the juvenile responses prior to yours. I thought all the kids were back in school.
1:22; How did you manage to beat the bus home?
1:22, same thoughts here. And the city makes water repairs everyday, but not ones that take hours and hours to complete that also shut down a major commercial strip. Big difference from the normal water repair and that done to a major trunk line such as this.
I could expect this in a third world country, but Jackson is so close to being one. And with its leadership being corrupt... who could tell the difference ?
Suddenly the Baptist at 1:22 is trying to figure out a way to get out of the house and go see what this 'scenic views' thing is all about.
