Photography, Brandywine Battlefield, Barn, Tree With Hole And History.

Look at this picture I took that I just found on my computer. It's a photo I took at the Brandywine Battlefield here in PA. Look at the composition of that photo. I mean really look at it. It's so arty I bet that some of you cried a bit. It's OK you babies. Go get a tissue and read on.

Did you know that the Battle at Brandywine was the biggest battle in the Revolutionary War between us and the crooked toothed English. And did you know Washington's headquarters were there? It's all true.

But more importantly, what do you think is inside the hole in that tree? When I took the picture I was thinking that if I looked in it an animal would probably bite me in the face. And I had no friends with me so I couldn't say, "Hey go look in that hole. Someone just dropped their wallet in there". I guess we'll never know.

I'll tell you one thing though, judging by the height of the hole on that particular type of tree and given the number of years ago that the battle was, I bet the height of that hole in the tree was exactly the height of a soldier's......Oh you people are pervs!!

And not to get too artsy on your asses, here's another photo I took at the historic Brandywine Battlefield. Look how I positioned the crazy tree above the little ice house down there. It's like the tree is warning you, (talking like Shirley from What's Happenin' and What's Happenin' Now) "DO NOT GO IN THAT HOUSE RAJ - DO NOT EVEN DO IT!"

Can you hear that? No? Listen again - closely and open you imagination. And your heart.

Please feel free to leave your respectful interpretations of this fine art in the comments sections.

Important Information Before Voting For Our President

Obama this, McCain that. Frankly I'm sick of it. I'm urging not only Chester County, PA voters to consider a last minute candidate I'm urging all Americans to listen up. In fact I'm asking my large base of Canadian readers to disguise themselves as Americans and do me a favor.

When you go to the polls, please write in the name "Glenadene Bean."* Sure. She was running for Supervisor in Lower Providence Township (PA) back in the 1960's but if enough people vote for her, maybe, just maybe, she'll emerge from what I suspect ....hiding.

You see, my friend Calhoun found this poster of her on a job site years ago and he saved it. It hangs proudly in his garage where we throw darts. If I could somehow get her to show up, gussied up in her striped shirt and sporting her contemporary octagonal glass and walk in while we're playing darts, it would be a real hoot. Could you imagine?

*click on the picture to see the amazing detail and to bask in her sassy attitude. Feel free to pretend you know her and have a conversation with her. Don't be shy. Nobody is listening.

Monster Captured On Film By West Chester Blogger

If you're a reader of this blog, this is a day that you'll never forget. The reason? I have captured, on film a never before seen creature. Some type of dog/beast/monster thing. I took this photo in West Whiteland, PA on Colwyn Terrace. Click the picture below to get a better view of this freakish beast.

A few of you may say that it's a red fox but you're wrong. Look at the tail! What the hell is this thing? And it had the nerve to walk around in broad daylight. At least Sasquatch and Nessie have the decency to hide from humans. This mutant almost wants to be found.

As soon as I can come up with a name for the movie that will feature me capturing it, I'm going straight to the press. So far, a few ideas are:

- Zibbs - the Man Who Tamed Hell (this is only if I can actually capture and tame it).

- One, Two, Three - Gotcha!

- One Brave Man With One HHHHHelluva Net.

I will consider movie names from readers as well as names for the monster.

Famous PA Blogger Expands Trophy Room

I'd like to say thank you for the three awards that I've won this week. As the awards require actual work, I will be accepting only one. I will accept the Meme from Poobomber.

1) Clothes - I'm comfortable in jeans and a t-shirt but I like to be dressed up. My favorite shirts are the travelers shirts from Jos. A Bank. I also like when I'm wearing a suit because I get a lot of looks from the ladies. And as you know, it's all about my ego.

2) Furniture - chairs.

3) Sweet - Snickers, Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, peanut butter pie, homemade apple pie.

4) City - Nashville - Home of my favorite bar in the world, Tootsies Orchid Lounge. In one night, a drunk girl grabbed my package as she was stumbling down the steps and then later, when I was telling some chick at the bar what happened, she asked, "like this?" and reached over and grabbed my package (I should write a post about that night). Stratford-Upon-Avon - I used to travel there regularly for work. Beautiful English town. Home of Billy Shakespeare. Las Vegas - I hate gambling but I still love this city. Milan - beautiful (stayed for a week in the best hotel in Milan - see picture above). Hong Kong -it's kind of Manhattan if they bussed all the people in from Chinatown.

5) Drink - Good bourbon, Dewers Scotch. Beer: from Yuengling and Corona to most beer from Victory brewery which is about 10 minutes from home. Red wine. Monticello Riojo from Spain is house wine but I love all red wines. Margaritas on the rocks with tons of salt.

6) Music - Van Morrison, Willie Nelson, Neil Young, The Who, The Clash.. see my profile for more.

7) TV Series - The Simpsons - I've been watching since season 1. SCTV, Strangers with Candy, Animal shows, Nova, Tons of Food Network shows.

8) Film - One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, Anything Quentin Tarantino, Horror movies but I hate the Saw movies because they're just stupid. Austin Powers, Welcome to the Dollhouse, etc.

9) Workout - I've been terrible with exercising lately but running and biking.

10) Pastries - Croissants, Cream puffs (I feel kind of gay saying a like cream puffs but damn it they're light and tasty).

11) Coffee -Wawa coffee is the best. Unless I'm getting a fancy frap with chocolate or caramel at Starbucks, I think their coffee sucks and it's the biggest scam in modern history.

And like a child that doesn't get way, since the award I created, the 2008 That Blue Yak Postee failed to make it onto more than 5 blogs, I will not be awarding(punishing) anyone with this award. I guess that makes you all winners....or losers.

OK. OK. I'll pick the five required "winners." Here are the lovely ladies that are now required to post the meme above with their own personal meme answers, link to THAT BLUE YAK and pass it on to five other bloggers.
