Give me strength, for I lack the will power to stand around in colored underwear on city streets.
Besides he's not wearing pink Crocs so he's not a proper Key West eccentric, never mind the open container. Mirror mirror on the wall..?
Capt Harry he calls himself, perhaps because that's his name. Mind you everyone is a captain in Key West. I used to be until I decided commercial sailing was for the birds. Old Key West Home Alert.
It does occur to me that if one felt one had the second best coffee in town it would not be a brilliant idea to advertise it as such, however opulent claims put me off. Perhaps it's time to give it a try?
Coffee and a sandwich sounds good though, doesn't it? Some people put up with a bottle of half warmed water.
And so we conclude this Key West essay with picture of a Key West woman. And even I devoted husband have to conclude she looks a whole lot better than Rasputin did in his colored underwear in the top picture.

I was wondering what he reminded me of until I read the last sentence about Rasputin.
Serendipitous, the wife, son, and I had dinner at a friend's and his other guests were a family and friend from the Ukraine and Russia respectively.
Steak tacos and subs with Eastern bloc family. I love (and only in) America.
America, for all it's vices remains special and unusual. I wish we could get on with the program and start turning the ship around.
When I became a citizen my wife had a party and told people to bring American food. They flipped and brought choildhood treats and then we explained that anything made by an American is...American!
I agree that it's special and unusual, but...
I've had a front-row seat to the demise and eventual failure of our manufacturing base - the key component of wealth creation of every INDUSTRIALIZED nation in the world.
I watched as our elected representatives (Senators) actively promoted industry's failure. These are the same people stonewalling the budget and raising the debt ceiling - and there's no indication they'll let up.
If the demise of industry is any guide - no one can save us from ourselves.
One collapse in a lifetime is enough for me.
Economic collpase this time around will be universal, globalization has seen to that. China's bubble is ready toburst as is Canada's and no politician anywhere has been willing to fac eup to the realities of world wide debt. The solution everywhere has been to extend and pretend. Iceland had a revolution and lost 50%of the value of the kroner but they are on the path to recovery. Norway is desperately lookimg for more oil to prop up failing North Sea wells. Oil off Brazil and the Falklands is a mirage and asian factories are producing dust catchers for a consumer market that has imploded. Yet someohow politicians still act as though the reckoning will never come and might as well keep propping up the wealthy. Some people think the way to escape the collapse is geographic. I think it the best way is solidarity, steady nerves and as much preparation as is feasible. That everyone aroun d me thinks recovery is possible doesn't make them right.
I know what your problem is - you're not eating enough cake.
