Well now. . . So it seem dey find ice on Mars. Dis be a great & glorious discovery indeed. Now if dey find evidence of lime & rhum we be knowin' dere be intelligent life dere.
Our finance director, Andy, a Canadian national, (in case he need to be makin' a fast exit. . . no passport needed) has recommended dat since we have vast an' considerable financial holdings we could be startin' a loan company. He be proposin' de name, " Archimedes Loans". I bin kinda wonderin' 'bout Andy fer some time now anyways. A company name like dat seem to suggest someone gonna get screwed. . . . ... . ..
One o' de friends o' de Beach Party noted de counter at de bottom o' de page be goin' as high as 99,999,999 an' he asked me if I thought dat mebbe a bit optomistic. I tell him, "What, mon? We should be settin' our sights low to avoid disappointment?!?" We gonna be in dis fer de long haul, mon. Jus' no way before noon. OK, mon?
So de Clinton lady drop outta de race. Dis be indeed good news fer us here at de Beach Party as it be one less t'ing in de way of our historic march to de top o' de beach. Now, mon, if we can jus' get McCain & Obama to drop out our path be clear as fresh distilled rhum. . .
I did finally manage to post de "Best Ever Rhum Cake" recipe, an' whoooot, mon, it be good stuff.
I be watchin' some golf at de bar dis weekend. I be big on de golf t'ing, mon, inasmuch as you donno have to bin good at it, jus' better den de guys you play against. Dat not be too hard, now, is it? Anyway, dis Tiger Woods fella misses a putt by jus' inches. An' I jumps up an' says, "Hey, mon!! I kin putt like dat! Mine ne'er do fall inta de hole neither." So de whole place get a good laugh. Ya, mon, I could be playin' pro golf if I could jus' practice more. . . . Uh, huh, dat be it. . .mo' practice. How much practice you need to miss de cup by inches? Heck, wit'out tryin' I be missin' by at least two feets, mon. . . .

Dance the Politician / from Only the Good Stuff
Yo, mon,
Someday soon we be gettin' 'round to selectin' de candidate to run against de oppressor-man.
I promise, mon. . .
But first, mon, I t'ink we gotta work on finishin' off dis bottle o' mighty fine Rhum. . . .
Den we be gettin' right on it, mon. . . .
Come to be t'inkin' of it, mon, I ain' feelin' all so much oppressed right dis minute. . . . Feelin' pretty good 'bout t'ings right now after all dis good rhum today. . . I guess de revolution starts tomorrow, maybe. . . But no way before noon, mon . . .
We be really close to announcing whobody we be runnin'. He say he can do it but I better check wit' 'im after he has a chance to sober up. He last name be Meyer, jus' like de rhum. An' he apparently don' drink it so we already gots ourselves a scandal.
So, Meyer say he be up to runnin' but he want some supermodel type as a runnin' mate. I tells him, "Mon, you ain' marryin' de runnin' mate. Dey be dere to fill in fer you if you dies or somet'ing, ya know?" So he say, "Like de godfather t'ing?" I gotta be wonderin' 'bout our boy here, mon. Me no be t'inkin' he has too gooda grasp on de politics angle. Mebbe he need summore beer . . .
Our stands on de issues dis week is gonna be changin' by next week, mon. . . . We be all for flip-floppin' here at de Beach Party. . . In fact, we not only be for flip-flops, but for sandals and barefootin', too . . . .
Our "vice" president candidate done dropped outta de race. She has too many issues to deal wit', mon. So we be lookin' to find a new vice. . .
Don' despair, mon . . . Jus' kick back, catch de wave, an' enjoy de ride.
An' oh, yeah, Have a little rhum. It ain't jus' fer breakfast anymore, ya know. . . Jim
De only good t'ing about de Republicans is de "PUB" part. . . An' as soon as we t'ink up somet'ing good about dem 'Ocrats we be postin' it here for ya. . . .
As promised, here it is!
Ya know what a bureaucrat be? Dat be a democrat who has de job a republican wants.
Interestin'ly 'nuf, if you takes de words "Republican" & "Democrat" an' rearrange de letters some it be spellin',
"Rum, Captain? Cold Beer??"
An' dat be somethin' I knows we all agree is a good t'ing indeed. . .
I run inta some "Parrotheads" at de pub de other night. Nice people, mon. Dey gives me a case of Landshark Lager beer an' some other t'ings. Oh, yeah, mon! It be me lucky day ! ! So den dey ask if I wanna be joinin' dere group. I t'ink mebbey I be doin' dat. I did get dem to be card carryin' members o' de "Beach Party" so we both be comin' out good on dis one. Now I gonna get me a bottle o' dat nice, cold beer . . . .
I be sittin' at Stella Blues today an' one o' dem saleman types be tryin' to get 'em to buy into Calico Jack's flavored rhums. I tol' him dis be his lucky day insomuch as I be doin' De Rhum Reviews on me web site. Of course he ask what site dat be an' ended up as a card carryin' member. So since me wife, Rumcake, had a bottle o' Mango Rhum in de cupboard I graciously volunteered to review his Mango Rhum. He be happy to pour one up. Be sure to check de review.
If ya send me pictures of you favorite beaches I kin try to post them on this page "De Beach Pix". If you be sendin' pix wit' youself in 'em I maybe hafta post dem under de heading, "Sons of Beaches". . .Or maybe "Beachcomber o' de Month". Please send high resolution pix in case anyone wants to be usin' dem fer wallpaper. THANX, Jim
If you be really good at doin' not'ing dere be no need fer you to be pointin' it out.
If Ralphie can run, we can run. We both have de ice cube in de daiquiri chance of comin' out on top. Actually de ice cube have de best chance. Ice cubes at least can float.
Mojitos for Health
So de other day I was talkin' wit' some friends who jus' got back from Mexico. An' dey be tellin' me dat one afternoon dey be inhalin' Mojitos on de beach an' one o' de ladies dey went wit', who had never even had a Mojito before, looks at dis mighty fine drink an' says, "Dat be lookin' like a health drink!"
Now dis gots me t'inkin', "Well, ya mon, certainly Mojitos be a healthy t'ing ta drink. De mint be used to treat all kindsa ailments an' de lime have lotsa Vitamin C & stuff. De rhum of course be better den Viagra. At least de rhum be disinfectin' de glasswares." It gonna be hard to be gettin' healthier den de Mojito, mon.
So now, in de interest of helpin' ever'one achive dat good an' healthy livin', here be de basic Mojito recipe:
An' I be tellin' ya from me personal experience dat de more you sit aroun' drinkin' rhum, the more you wanna sit aroun' drinkin' rhum. It be jus' dat good, mon.
An', hey, mon, since we be on de subject of healthy livin' dis maybe is de time ta mention dat neither de republicans or de democrats can see fit to come up wit' a national health plan. In de absence of any enlightenment from dem boys we de "Beach Party" be proposin' de "National Mojito Health Plan", in so much as we already have done listed de benefits.
An if you be needin' a place to get healthy "De Haymarket Grille" be puttin' you on de road to excellent health in no time. Dey have a mighty fine assortment of rhum based t'ings, includin' de 'fore mentioned Mojito, for you healthy lifestyle. Dey even have fine dinin' type food so you can mix it up if you want.
If you be the adventure lovin' type when you dere try de "Caipirinha", de national drink of Brazil. It be made wit' a cane based liquor kinda like rhum. Seems to me to be a healthy alternative to whatever you be used to drinkin', mon. I took a couple last night wit' me dinner, an' mon, did I be feelin' good!
One or two ain' too likely to kill ya, mon; an' dat which don' kill ya, mon, will make you stronger (or jus' prolong de inevitable) . . .
