Memo from Macon PD–ignore the alarm at Erik bin Erik’s house for, let’s say infinity.

When the Ocmulgee overflows again (like it did in ’94 and last week), and he’s clinging to his roof like a wet kitten, then the Macon PD and Bibb County Sheriff’s Office can compete for the prize of rowing by his house to toss him a concrete block.

Of course, with the dissolution of the police force, E.E. can live out his “Mall Cop” fantasy…

Can I get a “Blart”?

2010: An Erick Erickson Odyssey

My God, it’s full of fail.

Athens has a great music scene. I’m just tired of it. Been here 10 years, and that’s way too much indie rock played to the backs of hipsters for any poor country boy. And since I can’t get the mountain to come to Mohamed, among a number of other things, it’s time to go.

Plus, it’s a game weekend, and the town’s full of yay-hoos from Louisiana on top of the normal Georgia yay-hoos, and I realize there’s a certain incongruity between bitching about drunken jackasses coming into town six weekends out of the year and moving to a town set up to accommodate drunken jackasses permanently. Life is a series of contradictions, I’ve found.

I thought Athens had a good music scene. I check Tipitina’s schedule every so often just to see what I’m missing. I imagine other commenters who know more about New Orleans will come along soon enough and share more substantial information on the city. I only visited it twice in the early 90s and having been wanting to go back since.

You reckon they’re hiring? Man, Bruce Daigrepont is playing there Sunday afternoon for seven bucks. The fuck am I still doing in Athens?

You just had to bang on motherfucking Jersey, didn’t you?

By comparing it unfavorably, more or less, to Georgia. I live in Athens and I’d be insulted, frankly.

Speaking of which, I’m moving to New Orleans in a couple months. Anybody know anything helpful?

Why do I see a Batman remake featuring The Joker, but set in Macon? Peter Greenaway is way ahead of you. Don't tell Dan Riehl.

I was totally against Rio getting the Games, because you know that the IOC will make them put on clothes.

Why in the world didn’t the president step in and make a case for awarding the Games to Chicago? Why does he hate America? Hosting the Olympics is a signal honor, and if Obama were concerned for our national pride and prestige, he would have taken the time to visit Copenhagen and lobby the commitee. It’s an outrage!!!

Wait, he did what? He did go to Copenhagen?….

What in the world is Obama thinking? How could he justify taking time away for such a thing at a time when we are mulling a radical overhaul of our entire healthcare system, not to mention engaging in delicate talks with Iran, just to push for a meaningless and expensive boondoggle?! If he were truly concerned about America, he wouldn’t be wasting the taxpayers’ money to shamelessly promote his currupt home city. It’s an outrage!!

their militaristic eagle coat of arms

Topped with a crown. Very American, that.

And Erk on the Olympic decision:

If Chicago had gotten it, Erk would be waxing ineloquent about the money wasted etc.
