What we have here is a 2012 downtown girl.
That doesn’t mean that she is a “Downtown Girl” like in the song below by Hot Chelle Rae from Nashville. Their downtown girl has red lips and “those hips are turning heads.” — PG

Paul,
Took a little ride yesterday on my motorcycle to the Van Sant Airport…. or…maybe I just got in the time machine again and pushed the back button! These guys were having a blast!

Hi Paul,
Street musicians are plentiful in Provincetown.. I took this picture today.
She was singing country folk, and darned good at that.

ps I liked the pic of Boardwalk Entertainer you just posted….
THE ROULETTES “I See a Star.” Who says these ’50’s songs sound alike? But who cares, this is a slow number, so lower the lights in the gym and find Gloria for this dance.

By Paul Goldfinger, Editor Blogfinger.net
When I go fishing, I go to Wegmans because you can definitely catch a fish there. As the hunter in the family, the modern-day version of the cave man, you have to confront danger in the Wegmans parking lot and then finesse your way around all the other game hunters in the store, the most crafty being the young multi-tasking moms racing around pushing little kids driving basket trucks.
Then I bring home the game: fish or chicken or whatever. As a kid, sometimes I would complain to my mother that she should cook something different, and she would say, “Sure, as soon as they invent a new animal.”

Anyhow, I turn over my fish to the gatherer in our house—Eileen, who fires up the stove and cooks it like the gatherers of old.
Do you think the cavemen ate sushi? They probably did before they invented fire. I should listen again to Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner’s record of the Two Thousand Year Old Man to find out. Today those guys are probably eating bagels and lox at the Carnegie Deli or Russ and Daughters in New York City.
Hemingway with a marlin that he caught off Cuba. Marlin can weigh 500 pounds and are related to the swordfish.
The catch of the day today at Wegmans is swordfish. Xiphias glades is a powerful and fast fish which has no teeth. But it has a sword to slash its prey. They gave me a sword in the Navy, but I didn’t dare take it out of its sheath. It’s currently in my Ocean Grove bedroom in case a Barbary pirate invades my house.
I took a photo of the swordfish before the Wegmans’ chefs dismantle it for barbecue steaks this weekend.
Did I buy swordfish? No, I chose cod loins so that Eileen can make some sort of French/Italian heart-healthy dish that she does so well over our campfire in the Blogcave in Ocean Grove. Then, if I can persuade her, we can jump into the Blogmobile and go for Days’ ice cream, something the cave men sadly never experienced.
