Bug Smakk
Not since the giant fake spider falling in his lap from the car visor has Big Wu given me such a good laugh involving a bug. This is how it all went down...

Last night, Wu & I had some hot wings & cold pints at Hooters Addison while the bunnies were all out together at some cotton patch. After getting our base buzz going at Hoots, we decided to head out and explore some other entertainment venues. First stop was Sharky's off Preston which was virgin territory for us both. Basically, this dive is apparently the local gathering spot for the lonely alcoholic bunny-less men in the area. You have to picture a large bar with one guy sitting every 3 stools apart just staring at the TV and no one in the entire place talking to each other. So we quickly chugged one longneck each and got back on the road. After another in & out stop at Flying Saucer, we finally came to roost at Logan's to play a little Golden Tee while downing Corona quarts.

So after a round of video golf and a switch to the hard stuff from beer, we get a blast from the past as the Bunny's old pal Amber comes walking through the door. A few minutes later, her current flavor of the week, Ozzie, joins our group and we all shoot the shit. Still standing by the Golden Tee machine, Wu all of a sudden leans behind the game and asks, "Does anyone hear that ticking?" We all shake our head no and just assume it's some kind of island paranoia sitting in on the big fella from being land locked so long. A few minutes pass and once again, "You don't really hear that ticking? What is that?" It's about this time that Ozzie takes notice and says to Wu, "What's that on you?" Sitting right there like a parrot propped up on a pirate is a nice 3" long cockroach riding the tsunami's shoulder. I'm guessing the ticking noise must have been the little guy asking where the pineapple smell was coming from...

Work Smakk
Most people find it very hard to believe after seeing me in both environments that Work Smakk is the same person as Play Smakk. I think it is all in the fine points of interpretation. As I glance over at the books sitting on my desk in the office, I can see how these relate to my job as well as my life outside this spirit sucking cave of fluorescent corporate hell. A few titles for example and how they translate to Smakk at play:
The 21 Indispensable Qualities of a Leader - Always split Aces & Eights and following my progressive betting plan
Kiss Theory Goodbye - Kiss my liver goodbye
The Five Dysfunctions of a Team - Have you seen at a party with the Bunny? Probably not if you came late...
Whale Done! The Power of Positive Relationships - Sailing with the Captain is the most positive relationship though I'll leave the whale hunting to Dangerous D
The Richest Man in Town - Also known as 'Before the Cage Door Locked'
The Servant: A Simple Story About Leadership - "Bring me my dinner and pour me another drink now, Bunny" (ok - slight exaggeration on this one. Or at least I need to say so to keep my drinks flowing tonight.)
Achieving Authentic Success - House w pool in North Dallas, check. Blonde trophy wife, check. Enough cash flow to drink self into oblivion every night, check. Authentic success, check.
