why am I telling you this?

Great, now my neighbor thinks I’m a prevert

One of my very favorite things to do when bored is read the Craigslist “casual encounters” section (of lots of different cities to chuckle at the colloquialisms) and get my laugh on at all the creative ways people ask strangers on the internet to have sex with them. Often the entries with photos are quite hilarious. Just now I was laughing at a photo of a man’s junk measured up next to a soda can…

Ace of Cakes is pretty much the best show ever. Hipsters making awesome cakes in Baltimore. It does not get much better. If Nick Anderson declines my proposal of marriage, I will gladly extend it to Geof.
