unexpected sight
yesterday walking home from work along a bike path, i saw a penis.
immediately the image of that song "detachable penis" pops into my head and you would think that perhaps it was laying there, next to a broken toaster oven, and someone was trying to sell it for 22 dollars.
but no, this one was not detachable. it was very attached.
i had just passed 2 people (normal people...welll, as normal as you can get for berkeley) sitting on a park bench when i heard someone in the bushes. i naturally turned my head to see what it was. and there was a man peeing in broad daylight, facing the path for all to see. most men who pee in public would have faced the fence, but not in berkeley i guess. kind of a shocker, to say the least. i suppose i should be thankful that, while he was facing the path, at least the stream wasn't so powerful that it made it onto the passersby.

Hahaha! Now I will have the song "Detachable Penis" stuck in my head for the remainder of the work day. Which is fine, I guess, as long as I don't start singing out loud in the office...
I've been reading your blog for a while now, and just had to comment since you were the one who introduced me to that song way back in what, 8th grade???

Meisa introduced me to "Detachable Penis" too... I think she may have made me memorize bits even! :)
