Vag Muffing chair for sale in Ebay..."this chair is perfectly sized for blow up dolls or dolls that blow! "

VINTAGE MEDICAL CHAIR CIRCA 1933!!
You are bidding on a Medical Exam Chair formally owned by a family physician until acquired by me in the early 1970�s. This chair is the perfect conception contraption! It would look great in your game room, dungeon or even the family room if that is where you want to expand your family! This is one heck of a conversation piece, you will be the talk of the neighborhood. All the neighbors� wives will be envious! Also a must have for any true collector of medical artifacts!

Upholstered for a comfortable ride, this chair is perfectly sized for blow up dolls or dolls that blow! This chair was built for speed and there are still a lot of screws left in it! Oh Yeah!! Those stirrups are adjustable in height and orientation to provide an angle to match your dangle!! This chair is multifunctional with casters, it is ready to roll onto your pickup truck or just down the street to the neighbor�s next swinging party!

This chair is in fair condition considering it�s age. As far as I know, it has not been refinished. The original finish appears to be a wood toned paint and the upholstery is in real good shape so it probably has been replaced at some point. There is some pitting on the silver finished parts, we do not know if they could be re-chromed or not. The casters which it rolls on have seen better days but the sockets which the casters fit into appear standard so new casters could be purchased very inexpensively at a local hardware store. We recommend the locking type casters so the subject does not roll away during your best moment!!

The whole chair could be easily whipped into shape if you were not worried about value as a vintage item. Just don�t spray paint it and then haul it down to the Antique Road Show expecting much! The appraisers get crazy when people do that, and that is why we have not touched it!!!

And now the difficult stuff! This chair weighs probably 100 to 150 pounds and will be difficult to ship! We will gladly put it in the back of our truck and deliver anywhere within 150 miles of Atlanta, no charge! If you are not local, you will need to make crating and shipping arrangements in Atlanta and we will deliver it to the crate and ship firm of your choice. Or heck, grab your significant other, climb in your pickup truck and come get it yourself!

Revolution, revolution, revolution

Last week was one major fucked up stretch... Let's see if I can recap:

- Tuesday: Woke up at 3:30 with Jewel (cat) jumping up and down and all over me and somehow convinced that my toes are good to chew on...which was a nice way to start the day, considering that 2 hours later I was a very sleepy Pablo sitting at Lisbon's airport watching some celebs go by. Airplane took off for Munich at 6:30 and I fell asleep about 1,17 minutes afterwards. From Munich it was a quick race to our plane for our final destination of Vienna where the Marathon of meetings started.

- Wednesday: Wake up at 6:30 (5:30 in portugal) and from there on non-stop untill plane at 4 pm where the conveersation went on untill I was forced to pull the plug and sleep a bit. We landed in Lisbon just as Sporting was loosing (suits them well the no good greenies) and went on to a 1:30-2 hours phone marathon. Go me.... Ended up going to bed at ...1 am?

- Thursday: At 9:30 in the morning (ok slightly late due to traffic) I was sitting in Lisbon for an informal meeting. Shades down to my ass and off to the office, for some work and then a meeting that went from 2 pm to ....I have no idea wen.

- Friday: Was more of a relaxed day catching up with shitloads of stuff and ended with a business dinner that took waaaaaay too long...but was nice.

- Saturday: woke up at 7 thinking that I was really late for work, had breakfast then decided that I didn't really had to go to work but oh well, since I was on I might as well go and do some shopping.

- Sunday: Nothing biggie, other than speding time with my better half, having a meal at Hard Rock Cafe and paying 4 € for the two of us aaaaand finish the day watching Episode I of Star Wars. The idea is to watch I and II before III...and please, Victoria, if you read this I DO NOT WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS IN THE MOVIE....well, actually I already know enought as it is...

- Monday: Normal work day ended up with the usual dinner with Boston Alex and Anne in Portugalia, going over WWII and having an amazing espetada de gambas...

And this week is a 3 day week, whoooo-hoooo!!!!

The week from hell...

...and they're off. The week from hell starts oficially today at 17:30 with the first big ass meeting and follows tomorrow, with my plane leaving at 6:30 am. It will be non stop untill Thursday night, so what the fuck am I doing posting this you ask? Don't I have better things to do? Well, you're right but I just want to say this:

- No biggie from the weekend. Just BBQ at the old Alto de Santa Catarina Grill and BBQ lounge..
- Paul might or might not suck, depending if he takes off the first week of June to bumm around with yours truly
- Is that time of the year again!!! Twice a year only, is the "Guess-when-will-Boston-Alex-arrive-to-Lisbon"! It should be this week, guess the day and I'll mail you a perfectly used and empty bottle of Super Bock with real backwash in it and all
- Victoria likes pets who light up in the dark... And french boys. Hey, don't ask me, I'm just posting this crap....

Plans from June 3rd to June 13th

I got an email earlier on from James about coming over on the week of the 10th but now that I think about it maybe he was talking about July and not June...

Anyways, remember how Jun 3-5 there's a tattoo convention in Valencia? And how on the week after that Jun 10th is a holiday and a Friday and June 13th is Sto.Antonio (also holiday) and a Monday? And how I wanted to go somewhere with Anne, Barcelona being a possibility?

Well the other day Lena phoned from Barcelona and she mentioned coming over on that week. Anne wants to save money so she decided that Barcelona is a no go. However... I am in need of some holidays... And rather soon... So maybe, getting into the Smart and driving to Valencia on the 3rd is not a bad idea. And then hitting up Barcelona doesn't sound too bad either. And staying there untill the 11th or 12th and party for a day or two in Madrid...

Or, given Barcelona terrible reputation for robbing cars, I might ditch the car altogether, pack a backpack, get a fly to Valencia and act as smelly hippy (aka pretend I'm Bill) from there till Barça.

In any case, the idea would be to hit the convention (mental note: set up some money to the side for possible ink work), maybe spend a day or two going up the coast since it is summer after all and the Mediterranean water is warmer than piss and then hitting Barcelona for a few more days. There are a few piercing and tats studios in Barça that are really worth hitting...

Powlow will be working during the week (Yes, I am counting on invading your floor) so I'll have to bumm around Barcelona alone which is not that nice...

So I might have to get on Alex's case so he joins me for a road trip. No bitching allowed (Bill would be proud of me)....

Update: Alex just told me that while Barcelona and all might be nice, word is that Brazil is even nicer and in any case, just about any girl in the world looks better than Paul, so why going to Barcelona when able to pimp at a brazilian beach drinking caipirinhas and watchingmulatinhas on tiny bikinis play voleyball...
Why should you read this article? "When you grow up on a farm in Georgia, your first girlfriend is a mule." ...this is a quote from an extreme right anti-abortion activist...

Oh the decadence...

/Start boring post
About 31 hours of sleep since Friday didn't recharge my bateries enought to get my ass up from bed this morning and go to the gymn. So I've decided to give up going to the gymn this month...

I figured that it is the 9th, I haven't been yet this month plus there's a 4 day weekend where I plan to take off plus next week I'm not gonna be able to go for about 4 days out of 7 so hey, I better be aware of my limits and pull the plug when I reach them.

This doesn't mean that I'm gonna let myself go, no sir. I just can't seem to be able to crawl out of bed at 6:30 lately and I rather work out after I come from work, which is something that I usually do (to some extend) during the summer. I'll just go running, play b-ball, do abs and that sort of stuff without paying the 60 € that I'd had to if I choose to go to the gymn in after peak-hours... /End boring post

Pimp my ride

This is an historical moment. Not only am I about to write a geek entry but I will up the level by making it a car jock entry. Beat that !!!

Yesterday I got a new radio for my car. Besides the CD driver being able to read CD-R/CD-RW/MP3 and actually reading the MP3 tags and displaying them, it has a SD memory drive and a USB port. Yes, a USB port which will bring my jukebox back to full car usage.

Next step is hooking up a Mac Mini and neon lights...

Weekend Stories

For the quick sum up of the weekend:

- Friday the spanish squad was supposed to be arriving and we were supposed to meet. They arrived late as usual and didn't phone me up. Which was great because I woke up with a swollen eye and had a hard time staring at a screen all day long, so staying out of smoked-filled places sounded like the right thing to do. On Saturday it was back to normal.
- Met the spanish terror team in Guincho, Leia tried to bite sand balls (as in a few piles of sand packed in the form of a ball and not some sort of weird VD) and had a bite at Bar do Guincho. Already quite a few people on the beach, gorgeous weather.
- Saturday night things worth mentioning:
  • Cento made a new sport called speed drinking. The sidefects include messing a perfectly good toilet.
  • A Blowjob shot without cream becomes a BlackRussian. *scrathes head* Huh?
  • There were a few brit rugby players around playing (although not in that way) with a battery powered dildo in the same bar as we were. At one point one thought that it would be funny to put it in my hoodie. Me being not my usual self figured that it didn't belong there and proceed to shove it up the ass of the guy which resulted in general laughter. They guy didn't take it (pun) the wrong way (pun again) and I did apologize for not using lube and being too gently. He replied that it was ok, he liked it rought... Classy....
  • I...I'm even ashamed of writting this...but...I have to confess...I comited the maximum and most terrible possible sin : I recieved many free beers and gave away most of them. Yes, I confess, I did it... I regreat my sins but in my defense I have to say that I only started to do that after some speed drinking forced by Cento that involved downing beers nº 4 to 7 and a blowjob/black russian in about 20 minutes... Too much for me. What made things worse is that from that point on I didn't pay a single dime more for beer (though I did pussy out and had a coke) and gave away most of the beer from 8 to...err 12? 14? No clue...

The Attack of the Dog Zombies from Cambodja

...actually that title would be one kickass name for a band...

This is the ultimate terror story and no, is not from some dodgy news source but rather from reputable BBC News...Zombies rule sooo much!
