Testing, testing, 1,2,3 ....

Is anybody out there? Ankle Boney? Anyone?

Hospital Gives Man Drip-Feed of Vodka

Doctors in Brisbane, Australia administered a drip-feed of vodka to an Italian tourist when the hospital ran out of the medicinal alcohol it would normally have used for treatment.

"The patient was drip-fed about three standard drinks an hour for three days in the intensive care unit," the doc said. "The hospital's administrators were also very understanding when we explained our reasons for buying a case of vodka."

In related news, Sassy's flight to Brisbane leaves in half an hour.

R.I.P. My Friend R.I.P.

Some fond memories ........ With every beat of our hearts, we miss you more, Nick.

To fair winds and following seas .... you'll always be at the helm of our hearts.

And who can forget your sense of humor! Listening to your stories and jokes was the highlight of every meal. Thanksgiving dinner will never be the same!

Special thanks to our home girl, Meg, for taking this picture with Nick. He got a huge chuckle out of it and now we will always be able to smile ... even through our tears ... every time we look at this photograph. Thanks, Meg.

Signed,
Sad Sassy

Sassy: "I knew I was right all along ..."

Today, Sassy received the following information in an e-mail from good friend and fellow non-teetotaller, PLC:

To my friends who enjoy a glass of wine... and those who don't -
As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria. In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop. However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting. Remember: Water = Poop, Wine = Health. Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of shit. There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I'm doing it as a public service.

Needless to say, the foregoing confirms what Sassy has been saying all along:

One bottle of Svedka from Big Daddy Liquors - $16.99
One quart of orange juice from My Market - $2.99
An ice-cold screwdriver at 9:30 in the morning - priceless (and, apparently, good for ya!)

Sassy out.

O.J. Simpson Arrested in Vegas

Huh. I guess The Juice is no longer on the loose?


(Alternate Sassy response #2: "Huh. So I guess that makes him Juice in a can??")
(Alternate Sassy response #3: "Huh. So I guess The Juice is in the freezer??")

Blah blah blah.

O.J. Simpson Named Suspect in Vegas Casino Burglary

Rumor has it this is all a publicity stunt for O.J.'s next book: "If I Did It: Vegas Edition".

Man Found Nude After Clothes Stolen

Um ... well, yeah. "My clothes were stolen" begets "I'm walking around buck naked." Next headline?

A Glimpse into the Life of an Employment Lawyer ...

Yep ... this pretty much sums it up ....

We did it! The Knot's Been Tied!

Yes - Sassy and The Cap'n are now officially hitched! Details to follow - as soon as we get back to our normal life! Thanks for all your kind e-mails, cards, etc. We love you all!

Beaver Spotted in NYC; First Time in 200 Years!

Whose? Britney's or Paris'?


[Ed. Note - We have the links to very revealing pics but decided to be classy ... or something]

BREAKING NEWS: The Cap'n Pops The Question!

Yes - it's true! The Cap'n got on bended knee in front of friends in Barbados and asked Sassy to marry him!

[Ed. Note: Sassy said 'yes'!]

So there you have it! Stay tuned for updates from the happy couple!

[Another Ed. Note: (with a hint of sarcasm): Maybe third time's the charm, eh?]

Some things are too funny to pass up ...... !

Uppers and Downers ....

So we're just really waking up over here ... (rough night - don't ask ... all I remember is red wine and music and tarot cards ....) Any hoozle -The Cap'n thought I should post the following with regard to one of the brightest talents in the current musical universe:

"Tired of their album? Tired? Um ... NO! Not even close!"

And then we discussed it further (over coffee and a screwdriver) and we made the following decision(s):

1. We could listen to "Uppers and Downers" 24 hrs a day for at least another 6-7 months (depending on the weather).

2. We're beyond stoked that Leon's got something else up their sleeve(s) - [we think they all have both arms, but who knows ...].

3. If Leon lived here, they'd have gotten a restraining order against us by now.

4. Every single person we play Leon's debut album for falls in love with it instantly and we think Leon may have some kind of subliminal messages in it that put us all into a Leon-trance, forcing us to become Leon minions.

and

5. Next time Sassy has a (serious business) teleconference at 10 a.m. on a Monday, she probably shouldn't entertain guests until 4 a.m. the night before.


Ok - all jokes aside: Buy this friggin' album NOW!

Mobile Post from Spidey!

My name is Spiderman. Last time we communicated, I was in arachnid hell, recovering from a Hawaiian date rape. Since then, I've spent a few days in Hershey, PA ("the sweetest smelling place on earth") while Sassy visited some old college & law school buddies. Last night, in Savannah, GA, I hooked up with this mermaid babe. She's real quiet. I'm taking her to Titsville - I mean Titusville, FL.

Mobile Post from Spiderman.

My name is Spiderman. I'm not feeling so good. I think that Hawaiian chick slipped me a roofie. Um... I'm told we're leaving Delaware today and continuing the Lala Lounge Road Trip up to Hershey, PA today. Talk amongst yourselves 'til I'm done puking.

Mobile Post from Delaware!

My name is Spiderman. I'm a little busy right now. I'll tell you about it later. Suffice it to say, for such a small state, Delaware has a lot to offer!

Mobile Post from Spidey!

My name is Spiderman. Today, I'm kicking back on Sassy's "morning screw" (I don't know what that means but that's what she calls it). Catching some rays at Lum's Pond in the First State. (That means Delaware, fools!) Oh yeah, and Sam, Da Dawg, says, "What up."

Mobile Post from Frontier Town, Maryland!

My name is Spiderman. Today, I am in Frontier Town, Maryland. But I don't see any cowboys. Weird.

Not to worry, however, because while Sassy and The Cap'n were sleeping, I snuck out and went for a ride on their motorbike (I think they call it Bonnie for some reason). I rode to Ocean City, MD and drank some rum runners at Seacrets (a/k/a Jamaica, USA). Mmm mmm good! Then, I jetted over to Fager's Island for their famous sunset thingy: they play the William Tell Overture as the sun sets ... and perfectly timed. It was very cool and I highly recommend it.

Anyway, I heard Sassy and The Cap'n say we're going to Delaware today. I'll keep you posted along the way. Spidey senses (slightly dulled thanks to Seacrets) activated now!
