Merry and Happy y'all. I went against tradition this year and spent Christmas in Chicago with VS and boy-oh-boy did we receive a Christmas present to remember. Christmas day was rather uneventful (as it should be) until about 3:30 p.m. We had just returned from Dr. Bone's house after some Chicken the cat day care. I was parking my car when I noticed a blue Corsica roll past me and take a right into our alley. Three seconds later I hear VS yelling my name, only to see him crunched up against the building by said Corsica - the ol' pincher move. VS had a 12 of Budweiser and his camera bag, but we are still not sure what the fella was fixin' to gank.
Time stood still as I witnessed VS somehow elude harms way, pushing the fella and then running like a crazy man down the alley. I didn't need any more reason to bolt as well. Happy to say that we got away with our lives and other than some smashed beers, our Corsica driving Grinch got nada. Still, the experience rattled my cage. As VS and I came down off the adrenaline buzz we were both left to dwell on the what ifs and all things random.
So the moral, which I think we all know in our hearts, is that each minute we have is precious. I suppose in an incredibly strange way, Corsica man gave VS and I a Christmas present we should never forget. A lesson we all hear, but few truly apply - live it up y'all, because who knows what tomorrow may bring.
Anyway, here is the Langley School Project, a school teacher in the 1970's had his choir sing some actually good songs - check out their rendition of "Good Vibrations". Also, how about some Clem Snide, "Exercise."
Good Vibrations
i'm betting that you and steve made some sweet, slow love in front of the fireplace after that brush with death.
ho ho ho.
You have no idea.
did you get the plate #? how bout a description of the assailant? anything? we could have a good ole revenge party.
i am a little confused. was VS cut off at the pass or actually pinned between the auto & the wall? i like to think he was pinned but too strong to be held against his will & pushed the car back with his might & fled for freedeom...yes, that is what happened.
Ha. Sorry, Dale. The fella tried to use his car to pin VS against the wall. But, yes, VS' super strength proved too much. And, no, unfortunatel, I got nothin in the way of plate. He was a black fella, but that's about it. Like I said, isht happened real quick like.
[4] i'm a little disappointed. from the hot bath & red wine entry, it appears c$ would not back down from anyone.
strong like ox, bullets & blades should not deter
The Bud and camera would've been secondary prizes...one look at those VS sweet cheeks and Corsica man was geared to play in the rumpus room.
Corsica drivers are known for their gun play, Dale. Jules, you will have to talk to VS about any monkey shines in the rumpus room.
