Atlanta Barbies

2004-08-25T17:11:32Z

Just sharing a bit of Atlanta spam sure to offend EVERYONE!!!

Buckhead Barbie
This princess Barbie is only sold at Phipps Plaza. She comes with an assortment of Kate Spade handbags, a Lexus SUV, a long-haired foreign lap-dog named Honey, and a cookie-cutter dream house with a water feature in front. Available with or without tummy tuck and face lift. Workaholic ex-husband Ken comes with a Porsche.

Chamblee Barbie
This modern-day homemaker Barbie is available with Ford Windstar mini-van and matching gym suit. She gets lost easily and has no full-time occupation or secondary education. Traffic-jamming cell phone sold separately. Can swear in English, Spanish, Chinese, Korean or Vietnamese, but she's not sure which is which. Available at Target.

Hapeville Barbie
This recently paroled Barbie comes with a 9mm handgun, bowie knife, a '78 El Camino with dark tinted windows, and a meth lab kit. This model is only available after dark and can only be bought with cash, preferably small bills, unless you are a cop, then we don't know what you are talking about.

Dunwoody Barbie
This yuppie Barbie comes with your choice of BMW convertible or Hummer H2. Included are her own Starbucks cup, credit card set, and country club membership. Also available are Shallow Ken and Spanish-speaking Nanny. Dunwoody Barbie hasn't been affordable since the early 80's.

Jonesboro Barbie
This pale model comes dressed in her own Wrangler jeans two sizes too small,a classic Metallica shirt, and Tweety Bird tattoo on her shoulder. Wants to major in NASCAR at Clayton State College. She has a six-pack of Coors Light and a Hank Williams, Jr. CD set. She can spit over 5 feet and kick mullet-haired Ken's ass when she is drunk. Purchase her pickup truck separately and get a confederate flag bumper sticker
absolutely free. Available at Southlake Mall.

Conyers Barbie
This tobacco chewing, brassy-haired Barbie has a pair of her own high-heeled sandals with one broken heel
from the time she chased Beer-Gut Ken out of Jonesboro Barbie's (discontinued) house. Her ensemble includes low-rise acid-washed jeans, fake fingernails, strawberry lip gloss, and a see-through halter top. Comes with Barbie's dream double wide trailer. Available at Wal-Mart. Cheap.

Kennesaw Barbie
This collagen-injected, rhinoplastic Barbie wears leopard print spandex and drinks cosmopolitans to new age music with friends at the lodge. Into crystals. Comes with Percocet prescription and botox. Also cheap.

College Park Barbie
This Barbie now comes with a stroller and infant doll. Optional accessories include a G.E.D. and bus pass to Kennesaw State University. Gangsta Ken and his '79 Caddy were available, but are now very difficult to find since the addition of the infant doll.

Decatur Barbie
This doll is made of actual tofu. She has long straight brown hair, archless feet, hairy armpits, no makeup, and Birkenstocks with white socks. She prefers that you call her "Willow." She does not want or need a Ken doll,but if you purchase two Decatur Barbies and the optional Subaru wagon, you get a rainbow flag sticker free.

Alpharetta Barbie
Pregnant at purchase, Alpharetta Barbie drives a new Ford Excursion and is perfect in every way. We don't know who Ken is because he's always away hunting or in Japan on business. Alpharetta Barbie aspires to become Buckhead Barbie. Not cheap, but still very naive.

Smyrna Barbie
Into football, animals and bonfires. 98% belong to a cult, 2% are freethinking and void of any "traditions." Does nothing but complain about Midtown Barbie/Ken.

Buford Barbie
This Spanish-speaking-only Barbie comes with a 1984 Toyota with expired temporary plates and three babies in the back, without car seats. This is the only Barbie willing to do manual labor. Ken comes in a meat-packer's uniform and is missing three fingers on his left hand. Green cards are not yet available for
Buford Barbie or Ken. Available only at Value City.

Midtown Barbie/Ken
This versatile doll can be easily converted from Barbie to Ken by simply adding or subtracting the "snap-on" parts. Likes to "experiment." Doesn't understand why Smyrna Barbie complains so much.

Coming to Town

2004-08-15T03:29:08Z

Hey everyone, I'm going to be in town for a visit to find a place to live and perhaps gather a few business leads.

If you recall, I'm a computer consultant that focuses primarily on smaller businesses that don't have a full time IT staff or slightly larger companies that need projects done.

I will be in town from the Saturday the 21st to late Wednesday afternoon the 25th.

I'll be mostly up in the Roswell, Alpharetta area. If anyone has can provide me with contacts that could help me get my business started, I will pay referral fees. Fee depends on amount of work done. Generally, 10% of billable hours for first 90 days.

If you need my phone number, please message me privately.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Good Chinese

2004-07-05T06:23:52Z

I am picky about my Chinese food. No half-price bargain buffets for me. That stuff is just scary. Has to be nice, clean, pretty Chinese food where I can specify NO MSG.

That said, there is a good new Chinese restaurant on Roswell Road called Nyunya. I miss Orient Express since I moved away from Vinings, so I'm happy to finally have good Chinese in the area. It's located in the crappy shopping center with the Big Lot's, but is actually very nice inseide. And man, they deliver in NO time, it's great! I swear they delivered to my door in ten minutes the other night. (Seriously.)

Any others you know of? Chime in.

Speaking of Peaches, Again

2004-06-23T23:43:59Z

There Were Three Peaches in the Bowl

She washed them all at once, not intending to eat them all at once of course, but if they were all ready to be eaten, she could snack on them over the course of a couple of days. She ran cold water over their fuzzy skin and watched how the skin resisted it, causing the water to bead up in shimmery droplets and rivulets, and abandon the fruit to find the crusts and crumbs on her garlic-scented, dirty dishes in the sink. The peaches felt heavier, denser than their little bodies would indicate, and beneath the velvety skin, the flesh yielded slightly to the pressure of her fingers. She dried each one off gently with a dish towel, blotting them, rather than rubbing them, in order not to loosen any of the soft skin.

After drying each, she reverently replaced them in the vintage, green, milk-glass bowl, until the trinity were reunited in their new, dampened state. She admired the palette of colors that the fruit and the bowl made together. The bowl was that nostalgic, minty shade of green that recalled the simpler times of the 50's. It emphasized the wholesomeness of the fruit. The peaches, each rosy pink on one side, transformed seamlessly to golden sunshine on the other. Now, she also noticed their perfume. She placed the bowl on the table, intending to walk away and finish her chores, but as her eyes lingered on fruit, the small rumble from her stomach reminded her that it was lunch time after all.

Her eyes never left the bowl or its contents as she pulled a chair from under the kitchen table and took a seat. She picked up the nearest peach and sniffed at the shallow path along its side that led to the dimple where a vestige of stem remained. It had a small, slightly bruised spot which did not detract from its perfection, but was a sign that she needed to eat this peach right now, before the little soft spot became worse, before it turned brown and squishy. So she lingered no longer, and bit the peach. As she broke through the fuzz and the skin, and her teeth sank into glorious, golden flesh, juice immediately ran down her fingers and thumb, to her wrist. The explosion of bright, sunny flavor reminded her that this peach had never seen the inside of a refrigerator. She could picture the green orchard, hear the buzzing of flies, and feel the warmth of the sunshine that fed her peach until it was plump and global. She bit it again and again, easily separating the pit from the flesh in the middle of the peach, which was redder, as if she had gotten to the heart of it. And indeed she could almost feel its peach heart beating and pumping the juice through its carcass and down her arm where it formed a sticky puddle on the table top.

As she ate the last couple bites of the fruit, she placed the brown, wrinkled, hard pit into the bowl beside the remaining peaches. She contemplated the pit and how it resembled wood in its texture. She wondered if it would be possible to make a piece of furniture using peach pits. She thought she would very much like a chair made of peach pits. It would always gently emit the aroma of the soft part of summer. She could put it near the fireplace in the winter, and close her eyes, and dream. She knew this would be calming. She took a napkin from the holder and made an attempt to mop up the juice that had gone astray. Her eyes wandered back to the two remaining peaches. Without wasting too much energy on conscious deliberation she picked up the second peach and bit it. It was as sweet as the first peach, yet had a distinctly different flavor. In fact, this peach seemed to have subtly differing flavors depending on where she bit it, sweeter here, tarter here. She remembered seeing bushels of peaches at the outdoor farmers' market her parents took her to when she was a child. She remembered her mother's peach cobbler. As if the fruit weren't sweet enough, she sprinkled it generously with sugar and let it sit that way in a bowl for at least an hour. A bowl much like the one she kept her own peaches in. The cobbler's crust was made of more sugar, white flour, and a vast amount of melted butter. It was the epitome of summer evenings in her mind, taken from the oven bubbling golden lava, and cooling throughout dinner, which was likely something her father had grilled on the back porch. By the time they had finished dinner, the cobbler was warm and sticky. Sometimes they had it with ice cream. She lingered in the kitchen as long as she could after dinner trying to pinch extras of the cobbler. Through the screen door the crickets urged her on.

She looked down to see that the table was once again covered with peach juice, as were her chin and her arm. Some of the juice had dripped back into the bowl, and made a peach juice pool where two brown wrinkled pits, and one rosy peach remained. Gazing absent-mindedly at peach number three, she dabbed at her arm with the paper napkin which was rather ineffective at cleaning up the stickiness. She looked in the bowl. It seemed to be senseless to leave the third peach marinating in the juice of its sister and brother. As she began eating the last peach she considered the possibility that she was committing the deadly sin of gluttony. She couldn't think of anybody else she knew who would be eating three peaches for lunch today. She thought of all the deprived people who lived in parts of the country that were not experiencing the glory days of peach season. She'd heard that some places didn't get peaches until they were mealy, juiceless, and lacking in intense, fresh flavor. Her guilt was short-lived however, as she realized wondrously that this peach was every bit as good as the first two. She bit off smaller bites in a circumference around the peach at first, trying to make this one last a little longer. She rubbed the soft, remaining peach fuzz above her upper lip, and imagined that if she had to have a moustache, it should feel like this, and glow golden like this, and always smell as sweet as this. She ceremoniously consumed the rest of the peach, saying a prayer with each bite to thank the peach deities. After sitting for a moment, and savoring the way the peaches were warming her pleasantly full stomach and giving her a burst of energy and contentment, she got up to go wash her hands and face, and finish her chores. The green bowl remained on the table. It held three brown, wrinkled pits, and a small pool of juice.

Egypt at High

2004-06-02T17:15:39Z

So I recently went to the exhibit on Ancient Egypt at the High. It was pretty good, but short and with too much pottery. You can only see so many jugs before you get a little bored. However, there are two sarcophogi (sarcophogus'? not sure on the plural of that) that are really cool. Not sure if anyone was home in there or not, but somehow I doubt it. And a cute teeny-tiny kitten mummy. You also get admission (I think because it's so short) to an exhibit called African Gold that was really interesting. All sorts of African tribal jewelry, shoes, objects, etc etc all made out of gold. Most of them are formed to represent some sort of parable, which I'd have to say was fascinating and some pretty funny. Lots of photos on the walls as well, which was also interesting. Anyone else see it? What did you think?
Incidentally, they have Van Gogh coming in the fall as part of a larger exhibit. I'm there!

No more Diana DeGarmo

2004-05-28T03:08:07Z

I don't even watch that crap fest "American Idol" (and don't really want to spend a great deal of time with people who do) but I still have to subjected to audio and video of Diana DeGarmo because she's from metro Atlanta (Snellville, to be exact). She's got a weird look about her, I can tell she'll be addicted to a variety of prescription pills by her 40th birthday. You can tell her mom drug her from audition to audition during Diana's childhood, which gives me a creepy Jon Benet feeling about the whole thing. Ugggghhhhh.
