Ready Set Go

"Jake seriously, I don't think that's what they had in mind when they said beard."
Overheard in Chilmark

How else do you celebrate but with Strawberry Shortcake.

Daydream Believer

Afternoon in NC....


......a fella can dream

In the Heat of the Night

Jake doing some night shifts for EoW.
"Don't even start the can't shoot straight for $#(%"

"Noooo... this isn't phallic at all, what are you trying to say. Wait , wait just let me shoot it again, ok maybe a few more times. "

Jake's reaction to the BrookeDavis(TM) new Cops and Mom's a Robber collection.

We Got the Beat

Since Jake was on the beat yesterdayand Austin beat it to NYC to hang out at The Randolph and enjoyed libations and conversations...it's singer and songwriters edition of OMG

British songstress Adele talked today about how she had submitted a song for the LoAD soundtrack and was devastated when she didn't make the cut.She told The Sun[UK], "I really wanted to have the soundtrack for Love And Other Drugs. I was in for a good shot but I submitted the wrong song. I love that kind of movie. Maybe next time."

And it's even tougher for OTH theme song("I Don't Want to Be")writer, OTH musical guest star, singer Gavin DeGraw, who was severely beaten up by a group of guys in NYC and then hit by a cab as he stumbled away from the attack early Monday morning. Gavin has been touring with Jake and Austin's mutual friends Maroon 5 this summer.

You want to think RoboCop but all you hear is the theme to Inspector Gadget.

Replacing the batteries should give him another 3 hours of crime fighting either that or his junk will buzz for a week, I can't remember.

It's Two Wheel Tuesday and it looks like Austin's has influenced his co-stars to join him. Check out Jana's new bike.

Code Breakers

The hare might have hopped off with the box office then, but the tortoise wins now. Winning the showdown with a sidewinding lizard to make it the king of hill on the homefront.

Source Code debuted at No. 1 on all three charts the week ending July 31, bumping off Rango, to No. 2, on the Nielsen VideoScan First Alert sales chart, Nielsen’s dedicated Blu-ray Disc sales chart and Home Media Magazine’s rental chart. Source Code also finished number one for Red Box rentals.

The movie stormed to the top of the chart selling 385,656 units in it's debut week totaling additional $5,538,020, not including video rentals, or cable rights to add to it's worldwide boxoffice take of over $123 million dollars.

Not to shabby for a movie with a budget $35 million. ; )

Well done Jake and Duncan!

Out Spotlight

Today's Out Spotlight is an inventor who invented much more than what he is most well know for. He was a groundbreaking agricultural scientist, known for discovering innovative uses for peanuts, sweet potatoes and clay. He invented a staple in many kitchens and a beloved treat for many, peanut butter. Today's Out Spotlight is George Washington Carver.

Born during the Civil War,July 12, 1864, Carver overcame racism to establish himself as a preeminent scientist and renowned academic.

He was born a slave in southwest Missouri. As an infant, he was kidnapped by slave raiders, and then abandoned when they discovered he suffered from whooping cough. His mother’s former owners, Moses and Susan Carver, adopted and raised him.

At the age of 13, Carver left home to attend a school for African-Americans. In 1890, he went to Simpson College in Iowa, where he was the only black student. In 1891, he transferred to Iowa State College to focus on his passion for agriculture. After graduating, he served as the only black member of the Iowa State faculty.

He was then invited to head the agriculture department at the Tuskegee Institute, a university for black students founded by Booker T. Washington.

As a professor, Carver encouraged students to think creatively and independently. He emphasized self-sufficiency and resilience, and he pursued broad interests, including painting and religion. Throughout his life, he maintained a positive approach. Even in the face of overt racism, Carver said, “I can’t do my work if my heart is bitter.”

Carver is best known for his advances in the agricultural field. He devised and taught impoverished farmers uses for nutritious, commonly grown crops. He was the first scientist to discover multiple uses for peanuts, developing products as diverse as flour, ink and face cream. He experimented with developing rubber from the sweet potato. Carver’s discoveries are seen as the basis for many products, including biofuels and fruit-based cleaning products.

In 1916, Carver was offered membership in the Royal Society of London. In 1923, he was given a Spingarn Medal by the NAACP. Simpson College awarded him an honorary degree in 1932.

During the last two decades of his life, Carver seemed to enjoy his celebrity status. He was often to be found on the road promoting Tuskegee, peanuts, and racial harmony. Although he only published six agricultural bulletins after 1922, he published articles in peanut industry journals and wrote a syndicated newspaper column, "Professor Carver's Advice". Business leaders came to seek his help, and he often responded with free

While Carver was never out, the never married Carver was private about his orientation during a time when homosexuality was not publicly accepted. It has been surmised that he was homosexual, based on assertions by his biographers Linda O. McMurry and Rackham Holt.

George Washington Carver passed away January 5, 1943.

“Where there is no vision, there is no hope.”

Bit of a dip

Jake looks like a bit of a Skoal bandit on set for EoW.Let's hope that its for the part and it's not the real deal chew.
There's nothing nice about the real stuff. Spitting, that dribble down the chin, and nasty tobacco mouth. And Mr. G it will stain those bright white toothy tiles.

Maybe it's prop chew - maybe an organic farm to table pickled cabbage - a Kim-chee chew. It would be juice enough to make spit, and be so much healthier.a little pinch between my cheek and gum...

And you'd be more than a dip to harm that beautiful smile.
The only dip you should do is skinny dipping.
