Well, if you left the cookie there, then you didn’t eat it. So you’re leaner than you might have been.
Unless it was a low-fat cookie, in which case you didn’t want that shit anyway.

My brother in-law was thinking about making a sign that said
A-Rod you aren’t a Centaur You’re a Horses ASS!
I would have made it if I thought of it time.

Well, of course.

Semi-Hijack
What kind of mythological creature would you have a painting of yourself commissioned as?
I think I’d be a Minotaur, although it would really be a completely delusional thing, as I’m neither very big nor very scary. Still, I get to stand upright. And I have a whole maze to myself.

Quetzalcoatl: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quetzalcoatl
My BFF, an immensely talented artist, is working on original art of Quetzalcoatl for me for a future tattoo. I want to emphasize more of its bird-like features, and it will have a lot of color. It’s going on my back and the ink will probably take a few sessions to complete.

Great choice
I was always fascinated by Quetzacoatl whenever I studied the Aztecs in school.

Just for late night clarity, you mean the actual Quetzalcoatl and not your head on top of it right?

tattoo is the actual beast, yes
To get my likeness tattooed on my own body would be…well, that’d be Alex Rodriguezian (Is that a word?) in ego run wild.

Hope your tat’s not as controversial as the sculpture in the CCP. From IGoUGo.com:
At the South end of Cesar Chavez Plaza sits a sculpture that enraged folks even before it was erected. The city of San Jose spent $500,000 on a sculpture of Quetzalcoatl (pronounced Ketz-ul-KWAT-il), an ancient Meso-American god/figure of creativity and fertility dating back to pre-Aztec times, in order to honor the city’s Hispanic culture and heritage.
However, fundamentalist right-wing Christians took offense and began to distribute apocrypha claiming that Quetzalcoatl is a deity devoted to bloody pagan sacrifice and that the sculpture violated California’s constitutional guarantees against state-promotion of one religion over another.
They filed a lawsuit which was subsequently thrown out of court, the judge deciding that the sculpture was a work of art and a cultural artifact, not a religious token.
But the ire continues, even among secular San Joseans, many of whom consider the coiled snake-like sculpture to resemble a gigantic dog turd.

Yeah I’ve seen that and assessed that it does look like a big poo.

Speaking of tattoos, does anyone have a tattoo parlor of choice in the Bay Area?

Even though I’m the only person in the Mission with no ink, those in the know like
Black Heart on Valencia (conveniently located next to the Zeitgeist).

I know a lot of people who like Zebra on Telegraph in Berkeley, though I cannot personally vouch for them.

Yea, I’ve actually looked at Zebra and it seemed like they might be the best bet. They seem to have a lot of positive reviews from various sources.

For some reason...
I’m reminded of the apartment building across the street from AT&T Park.
