Documenting the JED Experience

I was partying in Grandview. Partying to me these days is having two beers and in bed by 11. I was at this dive with a bunch of people. This really old dude walked in with a young girl. He was mafia. He had a perfect full gray hair cut, tan blazer, mock turtle neck, rings, gold watch, and tassles on his shoes. Later, his young girl walks by and asks me if I want to be her partner. I didn't know what kind of partner she wanted. She said her guy was giving her the shaft and that she needed someone to play pool with, a pool partner. I asked her what about the old dude. Then, I said that you're going to get me beat up. That old dude is mafia. I'm going to be left bloody in the parking lot. I kept saying this over and over. She eventually got tired of me and went back to the old dude. I didn't want to play pool anyway.

*I've been going to NFL games for years. I always crash the rich people level to use the bathroom in the suite that my dad is in charge of. I have a pass that I use for every game. I've been changing the date on my pass for over ten years. Well, the Chiefs win a couple of games and I get hasseled at the gate to the club level. They said that I altered my pass, which I did. I had to yell and scream and this girl was not going to let me in. She called me, rude. Well, my dad showed up and got me in. I was worried. That girl was mean. She called me rude. She didn't realize that I was the customer. The customer was always right. I needed the private bathroom and free chips and drinks.
*A couple of weeks ago, I saw 3 Dog Night at a rich people benefit at the train station. There was free food, beer, and celebrities. I used the bathroom at the same time as a 3 time AL batting champion. All the three dog night guys had ridiculous big gray hair cuts. There was no bald representation.

I've played some disc golf lately. I'm really into it. I played 12 last Sunday with the S-man and today I practiced on the 4 hole course by Sprint world. I can't play any real sports, so I'm going with these hybrid sports. I got some cheap equipment, so I think I need to upgrade. I need to find a disc golf pro shop. I want to pick up shoes, discs, gloves, shorts, shirts, the whole nine-yards. I just hope my rotator cuff holds up, so I can turn pro next summer. theJEDMAN

The blog is back in town. Recently:

*I partied with theQUICK in Topeka. He was an excellent host. Gotta love theQUICK.

*I drank beer out of a beer truck in Iowa City.

*I got into a fight with a staircase and broke three of my toes. They turned all kinds of pretty purple colors. I got lots of offers to be a toe model. I turned them all down. I didn't like the money involved.

*I was bored and needed material for the blog to get out of this slump. Plus, sometimes a man just has to see half naked girls. So, I went to Hooter's. I bellied up to the bar next to a lot of other guys there by themselves. The Hooter girls were playing Hooter girl sports, like limbo and hula hoop.I ordered some wings and and a beer, but I didn't realize that celery and blue chesse was extra. I needed the fiber. The Hooter girl bartender asked me if I lived around here. Later, she asked me about going to KU when she saw my VISA card. Then, she asked me about my job. I told her what I did and she asked me a lot of questions about what I did at work. She did this in the middle of helping other people, but she always remembered where we were in the conversation when she returned to me. The face and the hair were just ok. The body was in line with superfiscial man values. I was too stupid to pick her up, but I can start hanging out there, because and this is the important part, Hooter's girls are hot for theJEDMAN

*I've done some public address announcing. I did two football games. I did play by play during the game. I introduced the band, the dance squad and informed the crowd of the good treats at the concession stand. I got to talk to the coaches on the field before the game. I even told bad people to move their cars. I'm theJEDMAN. I rock. theJEDMAN
