The Strip Tease

Hi Friends!

Well today was another good one... Check out this edited screen cap i made about an hour ago:

But i’ll get to that in a minute... This is a tease after all

Here’s 7:00 am in Vancouver this morning, inside one of my fave espresso joints. I’m no graphic designer, Cletus, so i done make my own!

I should probably just get Charlie to do it. Check out this sweet piece he polished off with some Cheerios!

I took him up to school and gave him a kiss and then headed off with my baby boy Leon — man can that kid eat hashbrowns and sleep like a pro. Anyway, it was about then i saw the dip in Ag. I checked in here and read a few articles and then started to get that itchy feeling again... Ughh...it’s back. Even after that spectacularly generous thank you from @raybrockman yesterday which included coins&bars&rounds in gold and silver, the most wicked Au nugget i’ve ever held in my hand, and an amazing hand written salutation! All of which had proved to be a very potent antidote, but the affliction had returned. Yep... the stackitus was back.

Me and Leon jumped on a train and zipped downtown to meet up with Mrs. @thedamus for a surprise lunch at this great casual italian place right downtown — and right beside the Main Branch of VBCE [(Vancouver Bullion and Currency Exchange). Just prior to lunch i scooted in with my rockin roller stroller (thats when the jbl is underneath 😜)] and my baby snoozologist and got me some o the shiny and the fancy on sale:

It’s not just ol’ Ray who’s showing fine leadership around here — there are many! — but i gotta’ shout out to my pal @goldenarms, and encourage you to check out King Tutankamun himself. There’s something about the timbre of his voice, and his fancy wares, and his stunning stories of real wealth accumulation that inspire the belief that: i (we) too can stack gold!

Born in babylona
Gotta’ condo made-a stonah!

King Tut!

But i digress...

Whip, zip, espresso sip, and it was 3. Grabbed my 5yr old Picasso from Kindy, fed him a canoli, grabbed a slice (the kid’s mad for pepperoni these days), got home, wife, dinner, 1/2 an Ice Age movie, bath, stories, cuddles...and...they’re all asleep.

Moo Ah Ha Ha!

So as i have already posted. I have been given $300cad from two people up here who have made money on POE, and heard that i was going to send ol’ Ray a “thank you” myself. One of them is a friend who is not even on steemit! And the other @heymar, has only dipped in his toes. The hilarious thing is that they gave me the loot before POE, like everything else recently, has taken a hard beat down. (It’s still gonna’ be a winner i think...but whatevs). Anyway, i have been on thedamus time and busy, and trying to think of what to send, yadda yadda yadda.

Well after yesterday, i had to get something out... So i topped up the loot I already had collected and got busy on my phone.

Ray, you GORGEROUS MOTHERFUCKER, this is just the beginning! Consider what next arrives for you from the strip, to be just a tease...

Cheers buddy!

Your man in Vansterdam, @thedamus

Well what do we have here? A teaser, ok! Well I can't wait. Cause @raybrockman gotta a little more somethin, coming to the ole Pirate, 😁😎👊. Double dipped on POE, bought back in at 5 cents, just maybe that bad Boy will pay off twice mu Hahaha, and if that happens thedamus will need his own postal code....

Too hilarious man! Ya oughta’ get a good hearty chuckle from the tease, but it may take me a lil while to get together the proper kit to send — you’re a tough act to follow!

And if POE really goes, my postal code will have a dock in it for you to moor your ski-boat-containing-yacht!

charging back the coffee before charging back the budz.....mmmm?

...Rinse and repeat mon!

My Ultimate is Charging

Hey, fuck off with your stupid ‘my ultimate’

There’s no more free votes for BS here

Lol. What? This a joke or something? You trolling me? That's how I mark this post to upvote so I can come back when my voting power gets up. I don't need your vote, but maybe you don't need mine.

Oh, i see. If that is the case then please accept my apology. I get a lot of crap on here becUse i used to upvote anybody that made a comment. Your comment seemed unrelated and like it might’ve been widespread — as i have seen you before.

Do as you wish... i will have a look at your profile now.

😎👍

LOL It's all good.

Bah ha ha! Jeez, what a bitchy fucker i can be.

Following ya now...

Two nice $5 Maple coins. I'll take the gold one. Have you ever noticed that the 1/10 oz Gold Maple is $5 and the 1/20 oz is only $1? Similar anomalies can be found in many Western Government Gold Coins. All denominated in dollars.

Yeah, strange... all of the dollar values on pm coins are a joke though. Try spending a Maple on a Happymeal and you will go hungry, but still have your maple. Lol

When's the ceremony?? I'll go out and buy a suit later. Can't beat a good bromance story xx

The bromanciest!

Awww your such a tease! Can't wait to see what you sent him!

Heh heh heh...

@thedamus You know I like Steve Martin...................
Now, if I'd known
They'd line up just to see you,
I'd trade in all my money
And bought me a museum. (King Tut)
Buried with a donkey (Funky Tut)
He's my favorite honky!

Man he was good back in the day!

😂 this gift war is getting outta hand

Just the way we like it!

Sharing the love............

What's better? Great morning read my friend, thanks for sharing

❤️❤️

Hahaa im loving the thought of you pushing the Portable Party Pushchair round town collecting shiny as you go! Those deep basslines send em straight off to snoozeland :)

Rock it hypnotic!

Love reading about the togetherness of the community!

The weed is better in Amsterdam. They say. Greetings from Holland.

I would beg to differ... BC bud took gold last year, i think, in the Amaterdam cup. But these days it’s like arguing lambos against porsches — they both get ya to sixty and beyond really fast.

You're in vancouver? Been there once, I love that city. The food is amazing. I'm pretty sure I have an uncle there too. A fun day as a family man, I feel that. Have a great weekend!

Cheers bitfiend!

The place still surprises me. Just gorgeous

👊👊 Like-minded people in one place. Loved your story. Steem on

wow that is awesome

You always amaze every time I see your blog. I love them coins.
