| 2.7.23 02:44 |  |  | I go into the VFW through the back door - I mean, I park back there and there's no line... unlike at the front. With my ID ready, I tried to present it but the security guy said "didn't I already stamp you? Don't you have a wrist band already?" Without missing a beat, I said "I think you probably have me confused with some other guy wearing the same shirt," and he was like "OH YEAH" which was hilarious - especially since that's TOTALLY what happened by the time I DID see Bobby out on the floor before his DJ set. I honestly can't remember if we'd met face to face before tonight as I think I really (re)learned about him during pandemic times and I was shocked to see how close our beards were. Slap a hat on me to hide my hair and I can definitely see how we'd confuse a security guy at a quick glance. Anyway here's the "I got the memo" photograph - there were at least three of these shirts out at the VFW tonight and here's two of 'em. I bet you wish you'd bought o!
ne NOW! Also the FUNK OF JULY event was super funky and I wish you could've been there with us. |

 |  | Here's the Van Leeuwen AriZona Green Tea with honeycomb! It's advertised as green tea and ginseng with honeycomb candy. I originally suspected this'd just taste like the stuff they'd serve me at the end of dinner at the all-you-can-eat sushi place but this is definitely on a higher and more complex plane. Funny thing is that the parts that aren't honeycomb candy are WAY more green tea and ginseng than I thought - it's barely even sweet tasting! But I'm totally fine with that. To make up for it, the (wish there were more of 'em) "honeycomb" bits are small, crunchy and POTENT in their sweetness. All in all, another triumph from the guys what make all them funny flavours of rich Frainch ice cream for $4.98 a (14oz) pop at the Walmart. |

Here are some Lay's Deep Ridged Squid ("Sizzling Calamari") tater chips from China. They're way more jagged and crunchy than your standard Wavy Lay's - I approve!
Unfortunately or fortunately, the texture was way more interesting than the flavour, which - I guess despite countless calamari appetizers I don't rightly know what "squid flavour" is supposed to taste like. It was salty! It was fine!
I might like other Deep Ridged varietals if they exist. Dunno if I need this one again. |
