It’s been an interesting week. Honestly, my brainpower is maxed out this week.
And I didn’t have that much extra to spare to begin with.

So with semi-sincere apologies, we have no theme this week. Everything is random.
And I’m probably about to ramble without direction for a little bit.
Just like life.

First, Some Business To Attend To
You’ll probably be seeing that banner image up top again in about a month. Here’s why….
As many of you are already aware but some may not be, the 2nd Annual DFO-CON is taking shape and is coming up fast. Less than a month to go.
It’s Vegas this year again. Mostly because Nevada is the only state in which none of us have outstanding warrants…..
…..so it just makes good sense.
The dates are set. It’s the first weekend in December.
Already confirmed arrivals are Yeahright, Dok Zymm, Low Commander of the Super Soldiers, and yours truly (that’s me, btw). Others among us are still in “playing it by ear” mode, but we’re hopeful they’ll all make it. We’re also more organized this year (sort of), so all of us (so far anyway) are staying at the MGM Grand this year.
True Story Bro….
I once bought Dick Vitale a beer at a bar in the MGM Grand and then proceeded to spend 10-15 minutes talking ACC Basketball with him. He’s not nearly as irritating in real life. Pretty engaging and down to Earth truth be told, no shit. Then again, I think some of that might have been nostalgia on his part. And mine too, admittedly.
When he found out I was an NC State alum, he couldn’t help but move the conversation to his good friend, the late James T. Valvano. He told me a version of this story that day, in fact…
Laugh, Think, Cry.
Keep your dreams alive, in spite of problems.
Take time to enjoy your life.
Pretty good advice. And considering I’m now nearly four years older than JTV was when he passed away? I think I’ll follow that advice as best I can. You should too.
But I digress….
VEGAS BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!
We’d love to have you (yes, YOU!!!!!) join us in Fabulous Las Vegas. You might even get into some trouble which will provide material for us to make fun of you on the blog for years to come. You wouldn’t want to miss out on that, would you?
ASS HERPES!!!!!!!!!
Plus, one never knows what sights might be in the offing in Vegas…
And why might you be seeing that same banner image up top in about a month? Because given my personal itinerary, I’ll be writing that week’s TGISF on location from Vegas. Presuming I’m not already dead or incarcerated by that Friday.
Party on, Zach…
And as God is my witness, we had almost nothing to do with this happening last year….allegedly…
RIP, Riviera.

tWBS Can’t Be Trusted To Be Unsupervised
Not that that’s news to anyone though, right?
But tonight is a very rare Friday night for me. For the first time in longer than I can remember, I’ve got the house to myself. No kid, no annoying redneck family members, just li’l ol’ me.
Why yes, I AM sans pants already. How did you know?
There might also have been some beers consumed earlier (and more yet to fall).
Now I just gotta find the number for the In House Hooker Service, and all will be well…
Yikes. Wish I’d invested in that ejector seat package now.
Masturbation is looking better and better.
Alright, alright….let’s move along, shall we?

Random Sports
NFL
The Bills traveled southeast a little ways to the “Big Apple” (translation: North Jersey) to confront the J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets last night. It did not go well for them. The Jets grew a pair and defended home turf. 34-21 Final.
Oh Buffalo, you always entertain…one way or another.
World Series
(Sorry not sorry, Dodgers)
NHL
Vegas now seems to maybe be faltering slightly, but still impressive overall as an expansion team. No way in hell the Caps take a 3rd straight President’s Trophy at this rate, but who cares?. Well, unless it’s the Russian President’s Trophy. Jeebus Ovie, didya hafta?????? And WTF Tampa Bay and New Jersey???
NBA
Sorry, I just still really can’t bring myself to care. But at least the Cavs are screwing the pooch. That’s always fun. Well, maybe not for the pooch.
NCAA Football
Tonight:
- Marshall @ FAU – 6:00pmEDT – TV: CBSSN
- (23)Memphis @ Tulsa – 8:00pmEDT – TV: ESPN2
- UCLA @ Utah – 8:30pmEDT – TV: FS1

Random Sexy
As I said at the outset, there is no theme this week. It’s random. All chance. What does that mean for the Sexy? Let’s find out.
Enjoy….
Yowza!!!! Perhaps we should do Random Sexy more often.
I’ll ummmmm….be right back….

So What Else We Got?
Not much. Sorry. But here’s some allegedly funny stuff to make you giggle…..
One last song…..
Have a great weekend, folks.
Love ya’s.
(and I promise to try to do better next week….”try” being the key word, not “promise”)

Do you have a “request” or an idea for a future TGISF theme? Drop me a line…

[…] Lake Forest. No bears here. You know, other than us. We might see eagles, fox, badger, or beavers, but no […]
Fuck it, quick song before I should really go to bed since I have to teach in the morning.

“Yes you are!”
“No I’m not!”
Metaphorically opposite of what he wanted.
WHOA! HOW DID THE CAMERA TAKE A PICTURE OF THE CAMERA?!?! DUDE!
Absolutely gorgeous. I am both impressed as well as envious.
Beautiful scenes beautifully captured. Bravo.
(also love the plane, very cool)
What are the exposure settings on the third one?
155mm, ISO 100, 1/800sec, f/11, -1 stop underexposed, cropped in Lightroom but nothing else.
It was a boring sunset until 5:45 and then it went nuts.
Thanks.
I’m making a large print for my cousin’s yoga studio. This is the fifth (non-consecutive) day I’ve shot from this spot, and I’ve used digital, 6x6cm film, and 4×5″ film. I have hundreds of digital exposures. My two favorites (so far) are one of the very first shots I took on the very first day, and one I took with my iPhone. That’s fucking hilarious.
BTW, in still photography I am a very advanced amateur. Never been paid for a still photo ever. I’ve got a lot of cool gear, though.
I’ve met this guy; he makes just enough off his stuff to buy gear and expenses for trips to capture the wildlife. Oddly enough he’s been charged by moose on several occasions.

These are beautiful. A hunter armed with a camera is the best hunter.

You can embed that 2nd one no problem if you want.
The one-two punch works better, I think.
Agreed. I was gonna unsplit it myself, then figured that was probably your logic anyway.
Logic?
Sorry, I forgot who I was talking to there for just a sec.
😛
This one was in the body of the TGISF post. The only reason I’m posting it again is because I forgot to make a reference to it I had intended to make. There may have been THC involved, but I admit nothing.
Anywhoooo….
Lesson of this video is simple IMHO, and it goes back to the whole “we regret what we don’t do, not vice versa” thing….and it’s this…. (listen closely you young bachelor types)…
You don’t know if you don’t ask. A lesson I wish I’d learned a lot earlier in life.

“I regret stepping on that fucking land mine.”
“No, you regret not taking the opportunity to miss it.
Here’s your leg, btw, now stop being a whiny bitch.”
The day the NYPD invested in ladders without wheels on the bottom. It was a momentous day.
The look on the dog’s face is priceless.
Attending an orgy doesn’t mean you are a part of it.
Speak for yourself, palErrrrrr, sure, I completely agree.
I got $10 says the guy with the camera is jackin’ it.

My aunt from BC is in town and I really appreciate that she got me a 5th of Canadian Club…
/Takes a drink
…which reminds me that I need to pick up a mixer.

Excellent.
I laughed.
Hi folks!
I have a song I want to play.
Come to Vegas.
I’ll buy the first 2 rounds provided…

I watched Season 2, ep 7 of Stranger Things last night. What the holy fuck was that garbage? Does the season get better? I’m not sure I have it in me to continue watching after that steaming pile of shit
“Moose Treppenwiz” has a nice ring to it.
In French it’s “l’esprit d’escalier” or “staircase wit,” when you think of the perfect reply too late, such as on the stairs leaving a gathering.
“Moose l’esprit d’escalier” doesn’t quite work, but valid cross cultural commonality nonetheless.
“ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR GOD DAMN VULCAN MIND??”
Evening lizard people. Today fucking sucked.
Accidentally started rewatching Happy Endings and holy shit this show was fucking hilarious
Excuse me, we’re lost and THIS fuck won’t ask. You seen a cave around here? Also I need bindy foods to build up my mucus buttplug. Hibernation amirite?!
WOW that’s a big dog!!!!!

Who knew Titus Andromecus is a descendant of Botticelli.
I was almost 30, and am now 58, and barely legal (though I understand she was under 18 when filming of the scene took place) naked Uma Thurman was and is hot.
San Antonio snaps 4 game losing streak, hooray.
Bryn Forbes!
Just a Great movie. Great premise, smart dialogue and just the right amount of action for a comedy.
