Where in the World? La La La…

OK. Where is this? I think it’s a music store. Somewhere. The words on the side of the building look like they’re written in Russian. Or something. Modified Cyrillic? Is that right? Who knows. I DO know that I feel like singing today. Guess that’s why I’m at a music store.

What You Learned Today:

  • If you’re just joining Us, We travel to places unknown on Saturdays.
  • By way of the big computer in the sky.
  • I really never leave home.
  • Cool.

Friday’s Foto Fun – One of My Favorites

Does this hat look good on me?

This is one of my favorite Foto Fun pictures. The juxtaposition of the verdant chapeau with the bleu floral vessel conveys a sense of calm chaos in a world of unknowns while the subject stays intense and focused amidst all the hubbub.

I just had to share that.

What You Learned Today:

  • Fridays are Foto Fun days!
  • If you haven’t sent me a foto of YOU for Us to have fun with and post, then do it today.
  • Send it to: StuartTheScottie@hotmail.com.
  • If you do, that means you’ve given Us permission to use it.
  • Had to take care of the legal stuff here.
  • So, there it is.
  • Have fun today. It’s Friday!
  • Oh…and thanks to all who’ve sent in their fotos!

How to Strip Without a Pole

Gotcha didn’t I? Well, it’s true. Not all strippers need a pole. I know I don’t. Not that I know how to shimmy on a pole in the first place. (That’d be kinda funny wouldn’t it? A guy stripping and dancing on a pole. Oh me. I make myself laugh.)

Noooo….silly. I’m talking about stripping. The kind that you need special tools for. (Well, I guess a pole could be called a “tool,” too, come to think about it.) The kind where your undercoat is stripped out from under your top coat so the nice, hard coat can come in and help keep you water resistant and cool.

That’s the kind of stripping I’m talking about and I’m having my second session tonight. I started last Friday and I have to go to my beauty parlor my Godmother’s once a week or so for the next 10 weeks until it’s all done.

The things I do to stay handsome.

What You Learned Today:

  • Some people think it’s painful to get stripped.
  • It doesn’t.
  • Actually, I kind of like it.
  • Then, when it’s over, I go home and strut my stuff.
  • Don’t hate me because I’m beautiful.

Time for the AC Vent

I don’t know about y’all, but where I live, it gets pretty hot. And, for those of you who know me, you know I DON’T LIKE HEAT. It’s humid here today.

I’ve already had the peeps turn on the AC Vent downstairs so my beard can fly up.

Flapping in the breeze…that’s the way I like it.

What You Learned Today:

  • I hate heat. Period.
  • Nothing about it is fun to me.
  • I love the AC. Period.
  • Gotta have it.

To Market, To Market

This is not how one might expect to see me at a Farmer’s Market. But, it’s what I do. I sit. And stare. And wait for everything to come to me.

One might think I’d be all about the hubbub found at a Farmer’s Market.

But no. I sit. And stare. At the food on the tables. Like these mushrooms.

Or this gluten-free stuff. Like the bread this lady is staring at. (I’m not the only one who stares.)

Maybe if I stare at her, she’ll give me some. Let’s try, shall we? Follow me.

Come on lady, give me some.

Can’t you see how cute I am?

It’s not working. Really. See how seriously cute I am? Just a morsel?

Oh nevermind, guess I’ll just say “hey” to this big guy. “Hey big guy.” (That’s Southern for “hi.”  You knew that, didn’t you? That “hey” means “hi”?)

“Hey” to you, too, big guy.
They sure have lots of stuff at Farmer’s Markets.

My peeps especially like the markets in Paris and Madrid. Like these. (See, they go to these places and all they bring me back are the photos. Not even a T-shirt. Or a morsel.)

Ah me. I’ll never get to Paris or Madrid. So I guess I’ll just sit wherever I end up and hope for the best.

What You Learned Today:

  • I went to a Farmer’s Market over the weekend.
  • I think that might be my last visit.
  • I get all tangled up in my flexi-leash. NOTE TO SELF: Tell peep to take the short leash next time. Duh.
  • I plop myself down in the middle of the pedestrian traffic and hold up the works.
  • I do meet some nice folks, though.
  • Maybe one day I’ll stroll the streets of Europe in search of fresh food and open air markets just for moi.
