Burn It Down

Feb 20 2010

Alex would’ve also accepted grouper.

Watching Jeaopardy with the wife this evening*, this question came up:

Denis Leary says of firefighters, “You have to be like” this sea creature. “You have to keep moving forward.”

Dude buzzes in right away.

“What is a sea horse.” Stone cold baller, that guy. Idiot, but baller.

On a related note, a friend of mine showed up at a party once after driving all night. He wanted to go take a nap to recharge. A mutual friend then grabbed him by the wrist and said, in words I will never forget and hope that I have children so I might pass them on:

No. You have to be like a shark. If a shark stops swimming it dies. You need to be the party shark. Get a beer and when you finish it, get another one. Be the party shark.

I was never more inspired in my life.

*Yes, it’s Saturday night and I’m watching Jeopardy with my wife. We’re a modern day Tom and Daisy, such socialites are we.
