On Saturday we took a ride out to Coney Island. It was unusually warm, in the 50's and it just seemed like the perfect opportunity to see this place that has been eating away at my subconscious for about 2 years now.
How I've managed to live so relatively close and yet have never encountered the visual wonder that is Coney Island is beyond me. It is like a feast for the eyes. Being able to experience it for the first time with what I'm sure is a miniscule fraction of summer visitors would be, was indeed a treat.

Fascinating. Spam. Wonder in a can.
So, yea. That can of Spam right there is indeed mine. It is here. At my house. In my cabinet. That can of Spam also has a recipe on the back with a difficulty rating of 2. Not 1... 2. I feel like I could handle that. I just might be ready to embrace the greatness.
You owe it to yourself to visit the Spam website. Its uh... it's somethin' alright. Did you know there was a Spammobile? I sure didn't. And like so many other curious pursuits in my life I am strangely titilated by actually seeing the Spammobile.
To this day, I kick myself for not stopping at the Spam museum when we passed by it. I don't know what I was thinking, flippantly riding by what was obviously a golden opportunity to experience some serious Americana. Though, maybe it is for the best. By the looks of their website people apparently eat lunchmeat dildos there. I'll pass.

Happy 2008

Happy 2008 to you all. I hope this year brings you much love, laughter and good health.
Last night the old man and I didn't go out. Instead we passed the torch to our little one. She went out to a party with her girlfriend at the aquarium from 6 to 11 where they had a kid's party including an apple juice toast at 9:00. Kenny and I sat at home watching the window for the car to pull up at 11:30 to drop her off. My excuse for watching the window like a hawk was that I was sure she'd be long asleep and I'd have to carry her in, but I think Kenny was practicing for the teenage years. We were 2 old dorks waiting up for their little girl to come home.
The stamina of a 6 year old is amazing. She came home at 11:30 and for the first time stayed up with us to watch the ball drop on Dick Clark's Rockin Eve at midnight. We shared kisses, hugs and 'happy new year's. It was really rather sweet. Prompty at 12:01, with sleepy eyes she sauntered off to bed.
They say the person you kiss at the stroke of 12 is the person you'll kiss all year long. I'd be more than happy about that.
