Lazy Lazy Lazy, plus Video

Although not as weak as March, April has not proved to be a strong FPPInternational month, for posting blogs. However, I wanna end it with a bang, so I have included a couple pics and a vid (that's right you techno-freaks, FPPInternational has moved into the 22nd century here, now with video and live chat, where I am willing, ready and able to fulfill your every desire). Hold on tight kiddies.

I hope these pics demonstrate why I haven't been posting in a while. Some Colombian dudes at the beach in their underwear and my very unshaved jowl while playing dominoes. Photography at its best



Just for kicks here is a video from Japan, a couple years ago, when FPPInternational was THE major peacekeeping force in the land of the rising sun.

Wildlife (Farm Fun)

In Spanish "la finca" means "the farm" and during spring break I spent a day at the finca of a friend from work. It was to be a nice diversion from the rigors of spring break. It was very charming to get away from BQ for a while and enjoy the flora and fauna. There was a catch however. In the interest of science, I have decided to document the changes my face goes through as I drink shots of rum [Which these first two pics should illustrate without me having to post the particularly embarrasing ones].


So, the finca seemed the perfect spot to try this. Paper and pen were produced, rum was served, pics were taken. Eventually all the raw data was lost and I fell asleep on the porch at la finca, after cutting my head on a lump of ice, chasing some chickens around and making a complete ass of myself.

There were lotsa animals at "la finca" including parrots that will open your beer for you and a bunch of dogs that are reinventing "doggy style."

No matter how you shake the stick, you can't have more fun than farm fun, and while I prepare to head back to work, have yourselves a merry little Easter.

So, Why Colombia, you ask?

Just a quick link today to help illuminate y'all to the beautiful environs of Roy H Mann, Mill Basin, Brooklyn, NY, which I left in July, only to travel to the second most dangerous country in the western hemisphere.

hope this clears things up. thanks for the link, DS. Man, do I miss going to work in NY. (this is sarcasm)

plus a pic from my balcony, some flowerguy.

Back in the Saddle

I suppose the only thing I can say is I stopped taking pictures after the carnivals. Which is more or less true. That, and my schedule got a tad busy. But spring break has broken and I have time on my hands and my handy little digital camera. News: In the past thirty-five days I have done a lot of guitar playing, gigs at the Flashback again, with Chris and a bevy of singing girls (well, two).

The success of the shows was mixed, but I did get to play some Johnny Cash, which went over like a turd in a microwave oven. I also grew a bitchin moustache, which I recently shaved off my face and into the sink and toilet. I also played with a band of tenth graders at the School's "family day" celebration. This was really quite fun, except that my mic, although it came through the monitors, was not anywhere on the mains (Translation: it sounded on stage like my mic was perfect, but to the crowd, I was only mouthing the words and no sound came out). So much for a shitload of technological boo-ha.
