DiveMistress is a-ok at Churchill Downs tailgating and since the Flag is preparing its special birthday trip to Cleveland with its Creator, Dive has decided to make sure Stewart isn't Dissapointed at the Derby by making her own special pre-birthday flag especially for the Louisville show tonight...

This flag was taught how to tailgate right from the start, you'll see it sipping a mint julep, here:

Super dumb question from a relative Newbie: Dive, are you really an attorney?

Unbelievably, Dive is a diver. Amongst other varied and fascinating things. Politics, art, music - she does it all.

Eq, the "as your attorney, I advise you to . . . " line is from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. (Highly recommended. I have the book packed for Greyhound reading.) It usually precedes advice to do something exciting, dangerous, nuts, drug-filled, or any combination thereof.


Have a blast, Dive!

The "as your attorney" thing is from Hunter S Thompson's Fear and Loathing in las Vegas...the title of this thread is also from Thompson's essay on the Derby <grin> I suspect all this Thompson stuff is called for since he is a Louisvillian <grin>

But, ya, Dive could be an attorney...she's one of those people who could do just about anything! <grin>

Edit: haha DM jinx! or, as you say, get out of my head! <grin>

You two are just way too in synch. Are you twins separated at birth?

Aww that'd be giving me far to much credit and DM far to little! I just hit one in ten <giggle>

Edit: I just saw what you're bringing for reading and, hahahaha, I have Proud Highway already in my bag <grin>

Bah! I'm a mere mortal. You're a superhero!


Edit: Nice choice! I'm going with road writings for a bit, so I'm starting with F&L, then moving on (in no particular order) to Dharma Bums, On the Road, and Twain's A Tramp Abroad.
