Write The Caption

Bangbus soundtrack, take 1!


The best two captions I've thought of are:

1. As if I don't get stared at enough...
2. The 2nd worst thing that blew through Joplin, MO in the last year.

We're starting a Wizardwrock band called "Hagrid's Homies" and our first single will be "Dobby Ain't Your Nigger"

The best title for this picture will be written in.

Tagged

 Old sign that reminds me of that optimist saying, "Keep your eye on the dough, not on the hole."
 Midwest style tagging.

He had the whole van to tag and I guess some remnant of respect made him choose the spare gas jug. I have to erase it or else others will claim their own territory.

Parting Words

The good ship Oggy is about to depart for unknown shores. A homeless street musician asked me for a ride to Austin, Texas and that sounded like as good of a plan as any. "I have no money but I sing for food," he said. "Let's go," I responded. Then he said, "Or Eugene, Oregon..." And I said, "Hush. The wind will lead us."
Oggy in the beatnik cafe

The words of Lyndon Johnson ring in my ear, "Is the world gone? We say 'Farewell' Is a new world coming? We welcome it - and we will bend it to the hopes of man."

The Gray Enemy

Don't worry about us!

What they don't tell you about Koala bears at the zoo is that their sexual habits often lead to chlamydia and blinding conjunctivitis. Wildlife vets capture and treat the bear but in their absence another bear has claimed dominance in the forest and the returning bear has to live in someone's back yard. I can relate.

The More Things Change...

I'm getting old and slow or maybe I don't care as much because it took me all day of watching Bruce Lee Jeet Kune Do movies and weed whacking the sidewalk to come up with something to write about. No, I'm not going to bore you with how the Koala bear is endangered in Queensland, Australia because their gum trees are becoming suburbs for growing numbers of electrical engineers. I'll keep it simple...yes, the internet is rotting the brains of children. Twitter et all is changing the way kids think and communicate and it's not an improvement but it's an advance. Maybe that's not a simple concept but I'm sticking to it.
