Dude, I got a 100lb cylinder of propane here, easier and less work. How about a shot of Patron?

Hell, yeah! I'll take a shot of that Patron. Thanks!

It was funny, now. We were at the Pagoda burn and a campmate of mind handed me his bottle of Tequilla ... and asked me not to kill it, I took a couple of swallows only then realizing I had killed it. I should have looked to see how much was in the bottle. I remember the Pagoda falling, and then waking up in my camp the next morning.

I owe him a bottle of good juice for Christmas, I think. Thanks for jogging my memory. He lives close by. One of the most awesomest guys in the world.

So my daughter was at our company holiday gathering yesterday and they had a clown/baloon artist. She got a unicorn and really liked it. About halfway through the party her balloon toy started to come a bit untwisted. Now mind you she is six and somewhat fascinated by male anatomy since she has had a baby brother ... knowing all the names of the parts and such. Well part of this balloon was sticking out and she says "Look Daddy, it looks like he has a great big penis!" and the worst part was I didn't catch it the first time so she had to repeat it louder.

I just got home a few minutes ago; at 5 in the fucking morning!

Portland SantaCon: Mission accomplished.
Seattle SantaCon: Mission accomplished.
Vancouver SantaCon: Mission accomplished.

If you rampaged at all three (3), there was a mystery prize....

Oh yeah, baby! The T-shirts Rob-the-Wop had made up are stunningly beautiful: red (of course) with the design (3 Santas trashing Portland, Seattle and Vancouver) in white and black. On top of the design "Be afraid... The Red Menace Cometh"; underneath, "Tri Santa Con 2004 Survivor". The design itself was created by 6 (?) big-time Portland artists, or at least I think that's what Rob said.

I'm so proud. If Sensei didn't sleep naked as a jaybird, Sensei would wear this to bed, he loves his Tri SantaCon shirt so much...

Before I do go off (to bed), I'd like to thank Rob-the-Wop for providing such excellent fun across 2 states and a foreign country. I'm scarred for life and Christmas will never be the same... Thanks Rob! And if you and SantaNiNi just fuckin' move to Vancouver, you gotta take Sensei with!

I was starting to fell like a lightweight for only going to two of the Santacons, when it dawned on me "Hey! Two outta' three ain't bad!"... yeah, but no tee-shirt! Shit.

Well, it's a cool Sunday AM in Portland, and a souped up coffee is just the ticket.... hmmmmmm... what do we have? *stoops behind bar, rumages around* Nope, nope, nope.... Sloe Gin and coffee? Nope! *Looks up on the upper shelves* The Macallen and coffee? Hard on the Macallen, but an honor for the coffee...

Scot's Coffee it is!! Merry Sunday, y'all!

Don't worry, Santa Samtzu! Portland was the best in Sensei's humble opinion. Hell, Portland had more Santas than Seattle AND Vancouver!

But here's why Santa Sensei wants to move to B.C.: as Santas were a'gathering at the Marine Club (a friendly, divey bar) several Santas slipped out to the Amsterdam, a couple of blocks away for a few quick puffs with the locals. Here's some advice: if you've never walked into a hash bar before, try to do it with at least 3 other people who also happen to be dressed as Santa Claus.

Hell, even the cute, dreadlocked girls behind the counter opened up their personal stashes for Santa Sensei and SantaNiNi and Santa Bruce and Santa Courtney(?)... Sensei felt, after the third number, that he had died and gone to heaven! SantaCon itself can be surreal, but at the Amsterdam, it was truly strange to LEGALLY do what we did. Which it wasn't, technically; I think. They're all real low key about it and tryin' very hard NOT to upset the poor ol' United States; God Bless Canada!

In fact, we liked the Amsterdam so much, the four of us blew off another hour and a half there later in the evening (different shift behind the counter!) when we let the kids go off by themselves for awhile. We caught back up to them by grabbing a cab, but the time we spent at the Amsterdam was a HIGHlight.
