Team Shredder Book of the Month Club



We don't just read it. We live it.

Comments:
We don't just look at the pictures, either.
 
I know you don't Capt'n, I know you don't. I want to be like you and read and live and love it. I am saltless, a porpoise in the aquarium. What about the ocean, tell me, is it sudsy near you? Is it foamy? Does it chop you up?
 
Capt'n, I was listening to Abbey Road the other day and actually did not skip over Octopus' Garden, like I usually do. Hmmm, must have something to do with the Team.
 
WELCOME HOME SEAMONKEE!
 
Hi chil'ren!! I'm back from a long day of "work," plus dealing with a breakdown of the Team Shredder van. I was right between appointments with the clients when it happened. Had just left one client's rich, suburban house, and there I was, stuck on their street with my funky old not-starting 22-year-old van. My funky cold medina. The clients were only a little bit horrified. It brought up a lil' bit o'class shame for The Capt'n. But after 5 seconds I got over it, remembering that it's based on total bullshit and childhood blah blah. I remembered not to blame myself, and instead I blame capitalism and patriarchy, which are essentially the lying comedy and tragedy masks of the master narrative otherwise known as harsh reality.
The Mrs. was great, she imediately said without even batting an eye, "Everybody has car trouble." and I said, "But I felt kind of ghetto and exposed..." and
she again instantly said, "Fuck them. If they don't like it they can pay you more."
Now that's what I'm talking about!
 
oh pd
 
mm, the ocean she is like a lover, a harsh mistress, a kind endeavor, an old friend, a cold reminder, a refreshing wake-up call, a reason to get out of bed, an addictive trickster, a mirror, a mirror vest....
 
OH Capt'n! You gotta get into the Norf*neasters' van. It is real ghetto and we don't cares who knows it! The Mrs. is right in her sweet assurance. Everyone has car trouble--even I do...without a vehicle or a driver's license. You are top-notch upper-crust special, and don't you forget it!
 
Oh my god, I'm right there with you Capt'n, thank goodness for the wise words from your Mrs. That is a heart wrenching story. I know a little like how you feel, I feel the same way when the Jammy Jar is parked in the inlaws driveway, it just looks wrong and the what I think of as funny bumperstickers transform into plastic shame patches plastered grotesquely all ver the ass of my car.
I know. I know.
But something tells me your van is the coolest thing on wheels. Please post a picture of it.


Hola Seamonkee, como estoy?
 
Capt'n you have a darling Mrs. She is ravishing in my estimation.

Seamonkee, you must stay in bed until it is safe to emerge. Please recover delightfully from your venturing out trip. I am heaving brown sighs into a bucket (it's not vomit) because I really know now that the ether is better than the reals. Have I lost it? I have. I am anxiety incarnate, there are ills afoot. Overshare. I think I am handling things but then there is this desire to jump into the Hudson. I am lamenting into the comment box with jittery fingers. I have soiled "the sea".
 
oh I love this series- Time, Life.

My favorites were the ones called "The Mind" and the "The Earth".

"The Mind" had sections featuring paintings done by someone who dropped Acid, and a beauty makeover for a schizophrenic institution inmate.
 
arapaho stars
I love this series too I have the whole thing I like The Mountains, and Evolution especially
I actually think that the Capt'n stole this THe Sea that she has posted from me but stole is not the word I mean to say
MM I've been doing some research in fact about Mountain Men for the Capt'n I hope all is better with you just remember how the Capt'n couldn't make a sentence when she first stood "face to face with your excellence"
