You ever see two things together that do not match at all? Total Opposites? Short white guy with tall black woman. Something like that. I have never seen that by the way! Send a pic if you have.
Today I attended a Philippine Republic Day Celebration with my girlfriend and the Lil Diva. The event was held at the Traders Village Flea Market in Grand Prairie Texas. After spending about two hours watching people who cannot sing trying to sing, we decided to leave. On our way out we passed by a flea market vendor who was selling young girls dresses and.....'drum roll'......GARAGE DOORS! I'm not kidding. The vendor had samples of two types of garage doors hanging from her tent and then inside the tent she was selling dresses. What's crazy is, there was actually a couple of guys looking at the garage door samples and someone looking at the dresses. Business is booming!
Business must not be booming for the Medical Industry which is forcing Doctors to be creative or..........I don't know. You decide.
A new office opened up near my house that combines two medical fields. Dentistry and Podiatry. Yes! Dentistry and Podiatry. The actual sign on the building reads "Teeth and Feet - Dentistry and Podiatry". LOL! What? A dentist and a foot doctor in the same office? Let me clarify. The building is really a one story single family home that is at most 800 square feet. It is Tiny! I am guessing two friends got together to open this business together. One is a dentist, the other one fixes peoples nasty feet. They couldn't afford to start their own businesses so they combined their resources and opened up "Teeth and Feet". At least, I HOPE that the case. I cannot imagine there is just one Doctor and he specializes in both Teeth and Feet. Yuck. How would you know if he washed his hands after an ingrown toenail surgery before he started working on your wisdom teeth?

Full of Tilt
So in April of this year I joined a Golf League with coworkers. We meet most Mondays and play nine holes against other departments at courses in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. It's pretty fun and I get to work on my golf game. Problem is, I play with the most annoying person on the planet! This guy inspired me to come up with a list of the 50 most annoying types of people. Unfortunately, once I got to the 5th most annoying person I realized I could write a full length novel describing this list and it could take months. I just don't have the time or energy for that. I will, however, share my experience with one person who has annoyed me recently. I'll get to the most annoying person on the planet in a future blog.
It's been awhile since I've played poker, but the last time I did this extremely annoying woman sat next to me. I have to set this up a bit. When I play poker it's normally at a bar in a free poker league. Gambling is illegal in Texas. Anyways, the real Texas poker players drive to Oklahoma and play at the Casinos. The beginners, trailer trash, and myself play for free at bars in the Dallas Fort Worth area. When I say trailer trash, I mean trailer trash as seen on Jerry Springer. There is this one couple; the husband is in his 70's, the wife is in her late 30's and SHE is the one with the missing front teeth! No Joke. I will talk about missing teeth in a future blog. At these free games we're not sitting at the big poker tables you see on TV. We sit at small octagon shaped poker table tops that sit on top of a regular table. The table tops barely seat 8 people so it gets tight. So the last time I played this lady sits next to me and she has the following annoying qualities:
1. She's huge! I have nothing against large people, but I do have something against large people sitting next to me at a small poker table where their nasty legs are rubbing up against my sexy legs for three straight hours during a poker tournament. 'Please shave!'
2. She is still wearing her work clothes. Not the full garb, just the apron. 'We don't care that you work at the waffle house. You can take the apron off and leave it in the car.'
3. She eating and drinking at the table. This is not a big deal at a large regular sized casino table or with a small table next to the poker table where you can sit you food on. But she has her food on the small table we are playing on. What makes it worse is we take turns dealing so when it's her turn to deal she has to move her iced tea and chicken quesadillas in front of me so she has room to deal the cards. 'Next time order a pizza so we can share.'
4. She's wearing a big black burqa. I have no problem with any ones religious views, but damn! It's 100 degrees out and you're wearing cloak. A black cloak. 'You're making ME hot! Can't you wear one of those summer burqa's? Plus you're sweating all over the place.'
5. Worst of all. She can't play poker. 'K 10 offsuit is not a good enough hand to call a reraised pot with preflop.'
Of course, I outlasted this girl in the tournament and almost made it 'in the money', but I was definitely on tilt while she was still in. Annoying!!
