It looks like somebody has been sampling the Straub Light

Ed X said...

Yeah - I guess I should say what is left of this after I get done drinking over the next two weeks will be waiting for you.

P. Rose said...

Ed you are a hero. How far was the drive? 4 hours?

You da man, Ed. You should get a bonus 10 points in the Graveyard Games, or something.

Ed X said...

It was 7.5 there and 7.5 back. The only crappy part about the drive was that I had downloaded and audio book to my I-pod to listen to and then I forgot to bring the I-pod.

Was it "Snakes on a Plane", the illustrated classic version?

Wow Ed! Good job. I wish I was able to be there to drink some Straub Beer with ya'll. I def. think Ed deserves some honorary award.

P. Rose said...

Ed deserves some points in the Straubathon.
Or a free seat to watch the other competitors.

I took the kids to see American Gothic this summer at the CRMA and I thought the center looked airbrushed. Their was one old photo of Grant Wood in the back and he was holding a Straub beer and just laughing.

"their" should be "there"

Ed, before we have a Straub beer do we get to do a shot of Polish Rectified Spirits?

Birdie Num Num said...

You SOB. I can wait to puke.

Ed X said...

You either have to do a shot of Rectified Spirits or set your finger in fire (due to the absence of fireworks).

P. Rose said...

We have a bat in our office right now, and I just can't handle that. We called to get help getting it out, but now the bat is hiding.

I know it's going to get me.

Anonymous said...

maybe it's a radioactive bat from one of the college labs, and if it bites you you'll get batlike superpowers.

P. Rose said...

Frank do you remember when bats attacked us at the farm? Rabid bats?

Anonymous said...

Bats are good. They eat bugs. What kind of bugs do you have in your office?
We have horrible biting fleas all over the yard, they are really bad this year. We might have to spend the money to get the yard treated. Everyone in town is covered in little red bites. Everyone who doesn't live in an air conditioned cave, I mean. Maybe I should build a bat house so bats will move in and eat the biting fleas.

Pat, i do remember. i had to kill them with a tennis racket. i never felt more macho.

P. Rose said...

We caught the bat. It's BIG. It was crawling across the floor using its wings.

Birdie Num Num said...

Macho like Billie Jean King?

When is everybody making it to the farm. I want to arrive right after Ed to drink what's left of the Straub Light.

I'm going to write a commercial for Straub Light today because I don't already have to write 10 commercials for paying clients.

OK, so which of us is Straub Light? Not me! Ha, ha, ha!

Birdie Num Num said...

I think Straub Light is all of us grandchildren. We possess many Straub qualities but aren't quite Straubs, although some of us are by name...but you know what I mean.

Birdie Num Num said...

And we're crisp and smooth and come in plastic bottle and a box that can be turned into a cooler for lake parties or what have you.

STRAUB
STRAUB LIGHT
“VACCUUMING” :30 TV

Open on a living room. Joe IV is sitting in a chair reading a comic book. Monica is vacuuming the living room. When she gets to the Joe, she lifts his chair by one leg and vacuums underneath. Joe is unphased. He continues to read his comic book as Monica sets him back down and continues on with her cleaning.

SUPER: (Straub Light Logo) Like a normal Straub, only lighter.

hey Pepperloin! Why "Pepperloin"?
Great ad. You need a raise! We should contact the Straub beer people.

This morning Jude and I were walking along a path that follows the river (I think it is the San Gabriel river) to the sea and a seal was following us! Then we saw a school of jumping or flying fish. Really cool. By the way, if anyone wants, we have this place by the beach until Sept19 and we move into our place on the 10th, so we'd love to have some visitors - plus, you'd have your own place with a pool, oh and - Did I mention it's three blocks from the beach? OF course, anyone can come visit us after we move too. Our place in Huntington is about a mile from the beach, it's small,but we'll certainly make room!

Birdie Num Num said...

Stop being weird. Fish don't fly. And don't raise your child so he thinks such things. What's next, a walking stick? A jumping bean?

I think you should move back to the midwest where fish swim and beans stay put. If not for you, then do it for Jude.

Anonymous said...

Yes Virginia,

Fish can fly, beans do jump, canes can walk, hills can roll, pythons can reticulate and hats get high.

Birdie Num Num said...

Thanks for clearing that up. Em, I hope you sensed my sarcasm. I envy Jude, growing up where fish can fly and blondes float.

Hey, how come I didn't get a call from Samuel? I'm a fan. I'm a patron of the arts. I pick up snakes.

Anonymous said...

i set it up for every brother and sister and niece and nephew i had a phone number for. if you didn't get it, talk to Samuel.

Anonymous said...

Might it be on my voicemail (which I check only if I'm EXPECTING a message)?

I DID NOT GET A PHONE CALL FROM SAMUEL JACKSON!

He must know that I think he was boring in Star Wars... I must not be the only one if he is washed up enough to be in Snakes on Planes.

Anonymous said...

What are you talking about? Snakes on a Plane was the Mutha F*&%ing highest grossing movie last week!

lisa,
i know where you live.

i love samuel L jackson because his entire method of acting can be summed up as:
1. Look angry as hell
2. Shout

I am really just sitting and waiting for the day where he plays a guy teaching preschool.
"Do I look like you momma?! Well, do I, Brad? What?! What ain't no answer! Pick up them damn crayons before I smack you upside your head."

Boys aren't
named Brad anymore. Now it is Jacob, Jack and Tyler. Get with it, tough guy.

Anonymous said...

I think Anon #1 was referring to the scene in PUlp Fiction where Samuel is angry as hell and shouting at a character named Brad.

Check out the big brain on Em! That's right Em. The metric system.

Speaking of the Royale with Cheese, has anyone ever tried the frozen Whitecastles from the grocery store? Heavens, they're tasty! I'm eating one right now.

Why all this anon posting?

P. Rose said...

Don't be shy. Be cool. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who in the name of charity and good will shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee!

Ed, mind if I have some of your tasty beverage to wash down this muthaf**ing pork chop with?

I know I ended the sentence with a preposition go##amnit, but that's the way the muthafu%#in' script is written!!

Let's get rid of the swearing on the blog. Using @#%^&*# to mask an obscenity is ridiculous because the reader knows what is intended and @#%^&*# become the omitted letters in the mind of the reader, so the obscenity is still there. We can do better than that.

Anonymous said...

but how will the other kids know i'm cool if i don't swear?

I think that the "Anonymous" blogger at 11:42am is your Daddy...better clean it up Straubs!
