Blooper Reel

Saturday is here which can mean only one thing, we’ve lived to see another weekend! And, of course, it also means it’s time to roll out the Blooper Reel of photos that I took throughout the week and didn’t make it into a post. And so, here we go, have a great Saturday everyone and tune into Cheeseburger Saturday Night tomorrow!

You say, "Ugg," I say, ugh!

333, the mark of Satan Junior!

How many times do I have to tell you, I don't have a plow!

Without the use of an opposable thumb, dogs are going to find it hard to operate this treat machine. Plus, where are they going to get a quarter? I think this is animal cruelty!

The ironic thing about this photo is that a woman was holding a screaming child as I took it. It was all I could do to refrain from a citizen's arrest!

A toilet shot from Milano's where we spent Easter Sunday. I was amazed at how clean it was and I liked the Cheap Trick tiling in the bathroom.

I took a few Polaroid shots this week and here they are. And yes, I realized I left the "a" off pizza after I scanned it in.

Somewhere there's a "lick her and whine" joke in this shot, but I couldn't come up with one.

And a shot of the Papaya Dog near Bleecker.

Beatles Medley with Lyrics by Frank Zappa.

Surprise link, click on it, I dare you!

Bonus Cash Mob at St. Mark’s Bookshop Information!

Jeremiah Moss announced a cash mob this Sunday to help out St. Mark’s Bookshop, which once again is having money difficulties. You can read Jeremiah’s post here. The cash mob is scheduled to take place at 1PM on Sunday (tomorrow) and then drinks afterward at Bar 82. If you can make it that would be great, hope to see people there tomorrow!

Great Polaroids, gives the blog a noir touch.

BTW, Anthony Bourdain once stated the surest way to check on the cleanliness of a restaurant's kitchen is, oddly enough, to observe the condition of the bathroom. The logic behind this is that a kitchen is way harder to clean as it takes a greater degree of effort. If they can't be bothered to maintain the restroom, you don't want to know the state the kitchen is in.

My dog could use a quarter..
just saying..
I always use the bathroom before ordering food at new restaurants i haven't been to yet..
I broke the rule once and ordered my Chinese at a highly recommended place in Seattle.. then went pee.. the cockroaches walking the toilet were huge.. I promptly puked.
I got back to the table..
paid the bill, took no leftovers and left...

@DaveW: Thanks, glad you liked the Polaroids! I agree about the bathroom tip!

@Bobby D: I'm hoping for a good crowd tomorrow too, you can read about it on Monday.

@Gidget: That sounds like one talented dog, but does he have a quarter? That's a scary story about that Chinese restaurant, too bad you had already ordered!

A 'French Fry Pizz' sounds painful, especially if it's one of those crispy ones.
(and a 'Krinkle Cut'? Yikes!)
Good yakkin' with you yesterday Daddio!

"lick her and whine" too funny,,,,,I could swear you have posted a picture of that liquor store on MAD or 365,,,,is it in East Village?

April 14, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterAl

@"Boris:" Ha ha ha! And ouch! Great yakking with you as well, Daddio, let's talk again soon!

@tehennessey: I thought you'd like that! I had never heard it before, found it while randomly looking around YouTube.

@Jawsl: I think that clip was the inspiration for this!

@Al: I'm sure I have, it's the liquor store right around the corner from where I live.

I have never seen a gumball machine that was in such desperate need of a sign in braille as to the contents it was vending.

P.S. I wouldn't have said anything about the Pizza photo. Honest.

P.P.S. Is there a noise tribunal to determine the necessity of a noise? I'd like to be a Noise Police officer. I'd write so many freaking Justin Beiber tickets it wouldn't even be funny. The city would be out of debt in hours.

@csp: Ha ha ha! Maybe I'll apply for that job! I've never seen a sign like that in the city!

@meleah: Me too!

I've seen several mentions of the St. Mark's Book Shop, I'm compelled to tell you a story in shorthand.
"Late-nite, hidden comment, abbreviated story time."
A decade or so ago I was really into a girl. We used to meet up there,
She always wound up in the self-help aisle.
It didn't work out.
Go figure.

@csp: The Lifetime Network called and they want to option that story into a movie of the week!

April 15, 2012 | Registered CommenterTripping With Marty

@TWM: No such luck. I'm on Lifetime's "Do Not Do Business With" list. Good times.

April 15, 2012 | Unregistered Commentercsp

@csp: You and Amy Fisher, maybe you should try the USA Network!

April 15, 2012 | Registered CommenterTripping With Marty

Next time I walk to your house, I'm stopping at Papaya Dog, dammit!

@Biff: Just don't get the pizza!

"The ironic thing about this photo is that a woman was holding a screaming child as I took it. It was all I could do to refrain from a citizen's arrest!" LOL From one childless person to another...Bravo!

@Tiki Bar Susie: Glad you got a kick out of that! I thought it was funny too, once I was out of earshot of the screaming kid!
