A lib “otter” ian view from Phoenix,Arizona

Sunday, er Monday weekend roundup..

Friday..   Weird day in general.   Toddler’s in many locations   some just have driving licences and  vote..:) 

Satday.. Home with the little one. Took him out to buy brakes and parts for the F(uck) ( Ford Truck) and  on the whole had a pleasant Dobh day. in the evening  take and bake pizza with 

Sunday. Erin had to go interview( practical test) at work which took out our only day together.  Placed Dobh with the grandparents and took off for the range. OMFG I can’t shoot anymore.. not one gun  I used to go weekly, sometimes more, and worked my way up to pretty tight groups with everything I owned.. now.  well they would ruin a person’s day  but  … I wonder if I need to look more closely at the old adage  “beware the man with only one gun , he probably knows how to use it:)   In the meantime I need practice.

Then we had lunch at the Skeptical Chymist in Scottsdale ( yep part of the Scottsdale Triangle  which Erin  ,  an Irish name meaning peace ( very funny joke ha ha)  wished to go along. They are seemingly THE place to celebrate the upcoming St Patricks’s  day ( I shit you not that’s on their flyer)    Ok  I wanted to try out the Irish Breakfast which claims to  have black pudding and whitepudding.  How did I find them?   well they were under the bacon THE SINGLE SLICE of bacon  which  surprised me   

All day Irish Breakfast…

Bacon rasher, sausage, black and white pudding, baked beans, two eggs, grilled tomato and toasted wheaten bread. Not a meal for light eaters.

I should have read it more carefully it really is in the singular.   ( they missed out the beans too:( )  This was not a lot of food by US or Irish standards and maybe my hopes were raised but the white pudding had  one bites worth and the black pudding two.  Lesson learned  Menu = blarney.   I was so fecked off I wanted to give out to them   but, they have draught cider and I had a couple and that was nice enough to make me forget about it.  In the past the foods been ok ( Like you can get great food in Ireland, ok  I seemingly can’t ;) )  but this was one a mighty letdown..   

Saw. “This movie is not yet rated”  which  has suspected shows up the MPAA to be a bunch of jerks, lying jerks and  well you get the picture. It’s a little too heavy on the casual link between  violence on screen and reality which  is a large failing of anyone arguing against censorship  when advocating that maybe they should restrict other people and we can all be equally repressed:)  On the whole though good work  and a very interesting, often hilarious documentary.

Lastly bargain AC DC  all the videos  under nine bucks  at Sam’s club..  Who says that Rock and roll ain’t noise polution :)
