Sad Day

Among the many passings this year, yesterday's news of our loss of The Cramps Lux Interior is one of the saddest. Punk & Psychobilly owe so much to this fearless entertainer.

Getting back on track to where the Linkeys should really be, I offer, The Top 10 Signs You Drank too Much.

And to continue with the prominent bacon "thread" that weaves in and out of these pages, return TNSC member Marc Hochman gives us Bacon Floss. Mmmmmmmm.

Bacon Trifecta!!!

To start... once the Apocalypse hits, we'll all need Yoder's Canned Bacon. !0 year shelf-life?

To follow, bacon-flavored lip balm.

To conclude, as my wife refrains... "Holy Mother of Bacon!!!" Josh, get on this STAT!!!!

And forget purchasing a new car, my hard-earned dollar$ will be going toward one of THESE!!!

So let me hear 'Amen" (Amen!!)

Ring in the New!!

Good bye, and good riddance, 2008. The year that sucked beyond belief.

To help ring in the new, I'm coming right out the gate with the death of the "American" Noilly Prat Vermouth, and the introduction of the "European" version in the US. My Martinis will be that much better, now!

This new year and new president have me energized, just like these guys! Or these guys. (FADERS UP!!!)

Come on out and support your local Thursday Night Social Club in 2009!!

Oh... and Happy 74th Birthday to "The King", Elvis Presley.
Barbiturates and Screwdrivers for the house!!

Steal my car,
Drink my liquor

Another Year of Linkey's Down

Just in case you're running behind on Xmas shopping (3 weeks in TX has certainly put me behind the 8-ball), may I make a few last-minute gift items that you'd be proud to give to friends and family. And each one uniquely phallic.

1. The Wonder Boner

2. The Banana Bunker

Y'all have a great Christmas, ya hear?!? And I'll see y'all in the New Year!!

So I Pulled Into a Gas Station....
...smelling like a Texas rose!!!


Monday night, 73º and raining the biggest raindrops I've ever seen.
Tuesday night, 33º and snowing the biggest fattest snowflakes I've ever seen.

While down here in Texas, I've discovered this great transplant band (though they said that they now reside in Fresno, of all places). Please enjoy the musical stylings of Jon Wayne. 'ep!!!

And if things couldn't get any stranger, along comes "Space Beer"

That definitely is NOT from Texas.

























"It ain't Oklahoma.

Deep in the Heart....

of Texas!! Yep. That's where I'm spending the majority of my December. But don't make that stop you from attending the weekly TNSC gathering!!

Now even though its only been a week since Thanksgiving past, I just found a "bird" recipe that I'm going to force Julie to make next year for the family gathering. Mmmmmmmm.... Turbaconducken!!

One would think with the economy as bad as it is, restaurants wouldn't have to cut back on their service staff... but they did. Oh wait... it's Japan.





























"Sweatin' it out, Deep Ellum at night.

Jive Turkey

Even though there is no TNSC meeting this Thursday, I wanted to:

1. Wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving.

2. Pass on a fabulous cocktail "The Gobbler" that you may or may not be interesting in making.

3. Share a wonderful recipe for mashed potatoes. Do remember to remove the "skizzin, yo!!"

I LOVE Rube Goldberg-esque BOOZE MACHINES!!!

I also ran across a timely "news" item about a previously posted TNSC link.

One questio . Why are these guys giving neckties such a bad name?!?

A very interesting story, indeed. Good thing voting days are Tuesdays as opposed to Thursdays.

Then there is the fabulous home decor item that is sweeping the nation: "Mah-buhl Kaahlums!!!"

Except maybe bloodies and a bagel, but THIS is pretty damn cool! (It takes a bit) I think that Josh needs one of these for his ride to work.

And let us all raise a toast to a fallen comrade, James Williams "Jim" Adams. Paragraph 4 & 9 say it all.

AAAAARRRRRGGGGHHH!!!!

In preparation for tomorrow's International Talk Like A Pirate Day I give you this joke:

A Pirate walks into a bar and orders a Sailor Jerry. As he's prepping the delicious drink, the bartender notices a ship's steering wheel sticking out of the top of the Pirate's pants. As he gives the Pirate his beverage, he says "Hey. Do you know that you have a steering wheel sicking out of your pants?" The Pirate answers "Aye!!!! And it's drivin' me nuts!!!!"
BUH DUMB DASH!!!!

(I'll be here all week)























"It's hard to believe I've gone and done it again

I admit that I'm a little slammed, so I'm relying on the generosity of others (specifically "Timmah!!" for providing me with "Sonseed" If you haven't seen it, it's an instant classic.

And while on the subject of religion, one can always count on Robert Tilton for a little entertainment.

A little pertinent quiz from our friends Adam & Jamie of "Mythbusters" fame. I actually aced this one. I blame it on dumb luck.

And in these tough economic times, some TNSCers are looking for ways to stretch their boozing dollars.

Actually, it's "local" stuff that made national headlines.
But the odd thing was stuff that was supposed to be real was fake, and stuff that was supposed to be fake was real. (and consequently removed from the original paper's site)

In true San Francisco fashion, we took 3rd PLACE out of all other US cities. We have 4 years to train and better our results!

And in the "who-do-I-have-to-blow-around-here-for-a-cocktail" department.

If it's any consolation... it's faster than the night-shift guy at the Orbit Room.

I did not know that Mr. Goldberg went to Lowell High School, graduated from Berkeley, and was on the SF Chronicle staff.

I love this town!
