Thanx for posting that video Becky! Here is part of the lyrics to "One last drink" by Enter the Haggs:

I've had a life that's full
Everyone's been good to me
So fire up that fiddle, boy
And give me one last drink
When the sun comes up
I will leave without a trace
But the world was mine today

Pickle smoked this steeplechase course! I think we got enough money to pay for gas...ha ha ha..it was a small trial!

My review

 rating: 3 of 5 stars

Yuck. A soap opera. Just finished this and I still say it is a soap opera. Kind of makes me want to off myself. Just a little bit. These authors who write about life and make it seem so horrible!

Two quotes that I found interesting:

"Don't promise too much....Don't you know yet that the more we have we have, the more we'll want?"

And...

"And somehow, after days, or even weeks, of this, and everything hurting so much all the time, and not being able to bear it-who could bear shuch a thing?-you found yourself at three o'clock in the morning, though you couldn't have said what day it was, standing on the now graying white bathmat, in a torn T-shirt and your oldest sweats, cold, becuae your feet were bare, your sad little toes wriggling like grubs in the rug-it was almost funny; everything was almost funny, but the trouble was that nothing actually was funny anymore-and on the sink before you was a glass full almost to the brim of scotch."

Then the girl goes on to swallow some pills that she has been accumulating over time, chasing each pill with the scotch.

Super sad. And there is a kid that does the whole Chris McCandles/Everett Reuss disappearing act and his family thinks he is dead but he isn't. He just wanted out of life and that was his way of doing it without killing himself. I do not recommend this book to anyone, I will be giving my copy to people who don't have stuff.

How to make a flaming dr pepper

1. Fill a shot glass about 3/4 full with amaretto and top it off with enough 151 proof rum to be able to burn.

2. Place the shot glass in another glass and fill the outer glass with beer (right up to the level of the shot glass).

3. Ignite the amaretto/151 and let it burn for a while. Blow it out (or leave it burning if you're brave - not recommended) and slam it. Tastes just like Dr. Pepper.

This is Pickle's two leg trick.  I call it no hands.

Pictures from this weekend.
