The pigeon and it's turd on one hat. What a great design from Staple. The infamous Pigeon from the nike Pigeon dunk, and the silkscreened shit makes for an amazing combo. The pink New Era logo is strange, but oh well. This is a cool hat.

Maybe the bird ate some of these. Olestra causes anal leakage in some people and maybe in birds. I ate a bunch not knowing what the heck was going in me. Why do...

Look at her smiling face, that’s Saelee who worked hard on Souther’s birthday party. From what I could tell, she did these things: 1) got a special vegan ice cream flavor from Scoops! Chocolate and Cinnamon. It was great, I had a second serving. 2) rented the serving containers, made rice, beans, peppers, and actually attempted to make handmade tortillas! Didn’t quite work, but they live near Echo Park and it’s easy to pick up good stuff in the area. 3) Horchata. They had a huge jug in one of those glass beehive looking containers. It was good. 4) Decorations, of course having help for everything, her youngest sister Sarah made a happy birthday sign out of paper bags. 5) Inviting people and making it a poncho party! Nutter Butters in the ice cream. The mint was nice. That’s detail. Look at Souther’s face. Did you know, this was his first birthday party in his life? That’s me and Oh sister #3. More guests jammed on the sofa. That’s Oh sister #2 and my stalker on the right. That’s Oh sister #4 on the left. Souther got a jacket! Ponchos! It was a fun night, and it’s less about a birthday party, but more about the work that went into it. Would you go through all this work for someone? I hope so.

What’s so special about Superbowl Sunday? I don’t always watch the game, but maybe I wanted to see the commercials, witness the hype, or gather with some family. I think it’s the latter for me. When my mother owned a restaurant, she had Superbowl Sundays. I think it was something like $50 for a ticket and 60 people would come. I guess if you do the math it’s a few thousand, and it would overfill each year! Tons of people would come and she’d have maybe 6 or 7 televisions going on including one big screen. I used to work the door and collect tickets. She’s have prime rib, ham, turkey, sushi, halftime oyster shooters!, and so much more. The food was non stop. I think the coolest part was that, she’d take a seat front and center in front of the big screen and yell at the TV. Now, it’s a strip down version of it all. We get together, and have a smaller party. I think it was my first year, and maybe it’s a new tradition, but one thing stayed the same. She sat front and center and yelled at the TV.
