So how was your Thursday?   You all know that we think of Thursday as "Friday Eve," - that way there's an excuse to go out and party instead of sitting home eating Mrs. Paul's fish sticks and drinking Colt 45 malt liqour from quart bottles.  Anyway, the evening started out just fine - perfect in fact.  We were well established in "our" seats at one of our favorite second floor bars on Palm Canyon Drive (oh yeah - you know it baby - PALM CANYON DRIVE!) by about 4pm, and by 6pm or so we were well into the second keg of Stella Artois.  Let's just say that we strongly belive in hydration.

Anyway, some friends of ours showed up and the evening took a turn nobody could have imagined.   It's Street Fair night so we all had a GREAT view of the vendors selling velvet paintings of Elvis and all the overweight tourists waddling down Palm Canyon.  None of us knew that our our collective lives were about to change markedly - FOREVER!  Within minutes after we "accidently" spilled our water (it was a full glass - we never drink water) over the balcony railing some guy with wet hair was standing by our sides.  We thought it was time to open a can of Whoop Ass, but instead he was smiling - then we saw the button on his lapel.

"ASK ME ABOUT AMWAY!"  Not kidding here folks.  He's a level five, black belt, certified, tier three, regional, coordinating Amway distributor.  Seriously - AND WE MET HIM IN PERSON!   We all got chills down our spines just being in the presence of such greatness.  He made his pitch, we all listened politely, then we opened the can of Whoop Ass.  In the end, we all had a GREAT time (except maybe him), and we even got some free samples of Amway kitchen cleaner before we tossed him down the stairs like a doberman with a dried pig's ear.  But the really exciting news is that tomorrow is Friday and we can do it all over again...

        
AMWAY!  And then we tossed him!                                                    The pizza was GREAT (after we tossed him!)
