I wasn't gonna post anything on this stupid and unreadable blog today. I was doing a little work earlier (one of my fake fake jobs, not my real fake job), glanced at my phone, noticed a text from Geilfuss and then went ahead and read the damn text. In it, Geilfuss informed me that Creech and Creech's roommates played trivia last night somewhere in the Charm City and got 1 question right. That's right, 1. I immediately texted Geilfuss back inquiring of the only thing I would ever think to inquire of when informed of such news. That is, I needed to know what the question was that Creech and his roomies got right. Geilfuss got right back to me and let me know that Creech got "A question about Ben and Jerrys ice cream. The answer was moosetracks. According to Creech he 'nailed it.'" There you go. Creech knows about moose tracks. And that stands to reason, seeing as how the kid has a bit of gut. If the trivia MC had just asked a few questions about pecker tracks during the game, Creech and his buds would have no doubt been "nailing" those too. If there are two things Creech knows, they are moose tracks ice cream and pecker tracks. For those of you who don't know Creech (be thankful for one thing) he is the kid who went to play poker at the Jacobys on a Sunday night back in December 2008. During the course of the poker game, the Jacobys collected money for pizza. Creech did not chip in any money at all for the pizza. When the pizza arrived, Creech ate several slices of the pizza that he didn't chip in for. Later, the Jacobys realized they had collected too much money for pizza. So, they walked around and offered a dollar back to everyone. Almost no one took a dollar back from them. Creech however, took a dollar back from them. So, Creech eats pizza he doesn't pay for and walks out of the place with an extra buck in his pocket to boot. That's Creech. I hadn't seen the kid in almost 3 years until last Thursday night when he comes strolling into the Wrecker patio like Big Daddy from that Tennessee Williams play. He starts buying shots like a sailor on leave for the weekend. Then talks to some unlucky girl for an hour or more. Creech spoke to me some, but I have no idea what he was telling me. Years ago, I found it pointless to listen to a word the kid said. Why, you may be wondering??? Because Creech is an idiot. He did get a question right at trivia about moose tracks ice cream though. No one can ever take that away from him.
Speaking of texts from Geilfuss, I got one during last week's MNF tilt between the Colts & City of Tampa. Here's what it said: Curtis Painter kinda looks like Jane Brady. Well, I guess Jane is the lost Brady sister who no one ever saw on the show. But at least now we know that this Jane Brady looks like Curt Painter. Important discovery...
Speaking of texts, Brandon sent me one last Friday that said this: There is a pianist at Sloppys right now. That was shocking and disturbing news, as I'm guessing the folks at Sloppys would have as much appreciation for piano music as they would for a reading by Shakespeare himself...
I got one other fascinating text recently. This one was from an old colleague of mine from my days toiling away in that building across from 1st Mariner Arena in the Mob City. It was as follows: Is it loitering if you hang out in a cemetery? Luckily for Beth, I knew the answer. So I texted this back to her: It depends how many 40's you've drank.
