Today Neighbor Man spent the afternoon doing shirtless yoga and sit-ups on his front lawn. Next to him, Fozzi the Dog did its own brand of yoga, namely lying on its back with its legs straight up. Soundtrack: Metallica, followed by the Offspring, and then I think it was Phish.
Neighbor Man kept his eccentricities largely to himself during the winter. Now that the weather's improving, we learn more about him every day. But, as usual, each answer only brings more questions.™ I urge you, stay tuned.
Posted by FLOG at April 29, 2004 8:29 AM | TrackBackAs weird as this guy may be, he sounds like an atypical Eugenite. Check out the neighbors on the other side of your place. They probably share the same characteristics.
Wow, this is just like Dian Fossey and the gorillas. Start taking notes. Maybe someone will make a movie about your research starring Sigourney Weaver.
Posted by: Blog at April 30, 2004 10:00 AMIf he's like Diane Fossey, does that mean that Dan's gonna get shot by hippie poachers? I really hope not, that would be detrimental to his continued living!
Posted by: Timmentator at April 30, 2004 10:13 AMHippie poaching? That reminds me of an anecdote Marla related to me about being accosted on the bus by a hippie for wearing her suede shoes.
(Note that I'm trying to recall this through my fuzzy memory so it may not be entirely accurate.)
"Do you like your shoes?" the hippie inquired.
"Yes, yes I do," said Marla.
"How can you kill animals for your shoes?" the hippie angrily asked.
Marla responded, "Well, would you rather have me shoot you for leather instead?"
"Erm, uh, um..." replied the hippie.

Posted by: Blog at May 1, 2004 5:30 AMLAME! Your comment area has a puppy blocker too. So much for a stunning, shock and awe, May Day melee. Fuck it. I'm so angry I'm launching against everyone else. The streets will flow with puppies...or, at least, HTML links leading to puppy pics.
Posted by: Blog at May 1, 2004 5:32 AMWe need to get to the bottom of these blockers. I want silly pictures in my comment area. For all of its niftiness, Movable Type is really paternalistic.

The img src tag does not work on the OC comments page either, eventhough we have html enabled comments. DAMN THE MAN! SAVE THE EMPIRE! or something.
Posted by: Timmentator at May 3, 2004 1:23 AMYou deleted my posts? Lame! Oh, well that puppy bomb can't be un-dropped. The damage is gone but the pain lingers on! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I think that one was all you needed.
Now who's going MWAHAHAHA?
Posted by: FLOG™ at May 3, 2004 11:52 AMThis intriguing character could be any of the following:
(a) self employed in a manner that would be of distinct interest to the DEA;
(b) moneyed but insufficiently loved trust child;
(c) IT whiz from California who sold his startup for $4M in 2000, now waiting to get back into the game or else make films
(d) special agent reporting on suspicious Eugenians to some new and as yet undisclosed domestic intelligence network within Homeland Security;
(e) deep support operative for the Madrid train bombings and other surprises yet to come.
Posted by: The Father at May 8, 2004 4:45 AMUnless he's hiding marijuana crops under his 6-foot-high crab grass out back, in some Cheech and Chong-esque scheme, I doubt the first option. Don't think he's motivated enough, anyway--that goes too for the SpecOps, the terrorism, and the "whiz" angle. Which leaves choice (b). Highly likely.
