Nothing special for St. Patty’s, obviously since I’m writing this post at a quarter to 10 on St. Patty’s night. It looked like a typical Friday night except everyone had matching outfits and the drunks were really really drunk. There were just less than last year. I swear I’ve never smelled those smells in my life and I’d rather not smell them again. Parts of the street still smelled like vomit but getting a drink at the bar was quite easy. Probably because I’m a local but I wasn’t elbow wrestling the next asshole for a beverage. I think the... Continue Reading

Pinch pinch, hope you’re ass is wearing green today. Seems like kind of a let down being on a Tuesday but I’m sure there will still be plenty of people doing it up like it was Friday night. Clematis is shutting down right in front of my house from noon on I believe. I’m sure I’ll make it down at some point for a couple Guinness. I’m supposed to hit the gym with Phil after work but I’m sure he forgot it was St. Patrick’s day as well so we’ll see. Have a safe and green drinking holiday everyone.... Permalink

So after days of sun (and oddly enough, surf) I’m finally back in West Palm where the weather is…exactly the same as Mexico. The trip was a good one and I’ll be uploading what photos I took of the trip over the next day or so, maybe even tonight if I get around to it. Right now though I’m exhausted. I never did run into Rocco except at the airport on the way back but the trip was tequila laden never-the-less. Good trip and I’m glad to be home. Time to throw on a movie, sip a smooth tequila and... Continue Reading

First real morning in Cancun and the boys are still asleep. Gary decided to stay on so we have a small extra bed in our room. I can´t sit there all day so I decided to come down to the pool and grab some breakfast. It looks as though updating this thing from my phone is going to be a bit of a mission so I´m hitting the internet cafe next to the bar, which is quite nice. This hotel is amazing, every bit as beautiful as the photos I´ve seen over the years working on the site. Don´t worry... Continue Reading

It’s 7:20am and I’m just finishing up everything that needs to be done before I head to the airport. Cancun and umbrella drinks here I come. Well, more than likely it’s going to be tequilla but you get the point. I’m going to try and keep my twitter feed (to the right) going while down there as it’s fairly easy to update via my iPhone. So check back periodically and see how it’s going. I’m actually hoping to run into Rocco from Rocco’s Taco’s when I’m down there at some point. He’s going to be there the same time I...

Phil, Davis and I went to see the Watchmen last night and it pretty much rocked, though the guy up in the booth must have been deaf (or we’re just getting old) because there were times during the movie where it was extremely too loud. Maybe we ARE getting old. Anyway, the movie was phenomenal. Dark, gritty, dramatic and thought provoking. An unfiltered look at super heroes that’s really never seen the silver screen. Not meant for children (and some scenes, even older children) this movie joins politics, global crisis, war, energy consumption all around a murder of the Comedian,... Continue Reading

We all know how much I love Rocco’s Tacos but his new place across the street is pretty good as well. It used to be Nobles, the only bar in downtown West Palm where you could smoke cigars and cigarettes indoors. Now it’s Grease Burger, or just Grease for short…and it lives up to it’s name. Holy crap, I could feel my arteries clogging up. I had spent the better part of the day skateboarding around town and then relaxing by the pool on Sunday when a couple neighbors invited me down to Grease for a bite. Eh, at that... Continue Reading
