Nope. My drinks are whiskey and rum.


TPBM has never learned to sip whiskey.

True.

TPBM has a clever Halloween prank in mind.
When he lights his streetlamp, it is as if he brought one more star to life, or one flower.
When he puts out his lamp, he sends the flower, or the star, to sleep.
That is a beautiful occupation.

Oh I had a great one but it fell threw. Pretty sure people would have called 911 if it had happened.

Ps Samosa not mamosa lol. One is a puff pastry with potatoes peas and usally spiced lamb. The other is oj and champagne :) Samosas with mango chutney is the bomb!

Tpbm loves Lhasa apsos!

wow! had to google that. at first I was thinking yummy food something like Samosa (and that is even more awesome if using sweet potatoes) But no, I like my dogs like I like my Men; Big, well behaved, neat, short hair, loyal and Mutts.

TPBM uses anamorphism of animals and objects to help explain their craziness.

I'll admit that all the cats and dogs of my acquaintance have the ability to speak English (though sometimes with a strong accent) and rich, secret lives that I converse with them about.

The person below me has named one or more of their vehicles, appliances or household plants.

Yes, my Volkswagen Bugs were named "Kelly" and "Ursula." When my band was on tour, we named our water bottles...mine was "Fred" (Even got in a fist fight with our drummer in St.Louis, after he tossed Fred out in the street).

TPBM Likes Dr.Pepper and Doughnuts in the morning.

I rarely drink soda any more. And well, I've been able to ignore doughnuts fairly well.
TPBM is amused that the bead called a "doughnut" is also called a "pi".
