Another Stupid Announcement From Me

 Okay, I've got bad news and some more news about the posting here at TMW First off, the freelance job didn't work out, the commute was too long and there's other factors I'm not going to get in to here. As I've always said, I don't blog about my job here. So that didn't work out, which means I have to get serious about looking for a job, which means I can't be updating this blog everyday. But I don't want to totally stop the blog while I search for a job, so I've decided to post updates, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Tuesday through Thursday there probably won't be anything. I figured four days a week are better than none and again, I appreciate everyone's loyalty and nice comments. Now I'm going to relax and try and get rid of this sinus headache that is making me feel like I'm bleeding from the eyeballs. We'll see you next Friday! Thanks for being patient with me and this blog! Oh and if you're wondering why there's a picture of Joan Jett up there, I figured that if she Google's herself (and who doesn't?) maybe this will come up and she'll give me job, hey you never know!

Fess up, Marty...Joan Jett is your main fantasy squeeze and she looks GREAT up there at the top of the post!

I like a good set of legs and ass ...

May 26, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterGENE

@Jaws, csp and GENE: Did any of you actually read the post? Or did you not make it past the Joan Jett photo!

May 26, 2012 | Registered CommenterTripping With Marty

I thought Tits described your photo and your situation in 3 letters.

May 26, 2012 | Unregistered Commentercsp

*4 letters. UFB.

May 26, 2012 | Unregistered Commentercsp

@csp: Ha ha ha! UFB! This isn't Twitter, you know!

@TWM: #Igetconfused Are we eligible for Facebook money?.com

@csp: Only Mark Zuckerturd knows the answer to that and he doesn't speak to me. #pipe

I recognize Joan the best when I see the back of her head:)

May 26, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterMike Hunt

Sucks about the freelance gig. Sorry Marty...

May 26, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterPeter

Hey Marty,

I'm actually glad this didn't work out. It was killing you, and you deserve people who love and appreciate how hard working, dedicated, and easy to get along with you are.

Love ya, and let me know what I can do for you.

MARTY WOMBACHER FOR PRESIDENT 2012

May 27, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterShawn Chittle

They should have read the reference.
Take it easy, Martster!

May 27, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterClacky

Big or little, Joan Jett or Uschi Digard, a woman's gazanga's are my favorite treat. You're doing good, baby ;)

If I were Joan Jett I'd totally give you a job, man.

Cheers.

Al

I was hoping this was going to work out for you. The blog can wait. A job comes first. You will be successful, you will find work closer to home,, just keep trying.

May 27, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterAl

@Mike Hunt: Ha ha ha! I hear you on that!

@Peter: Thanks, I'll keep looking and find something better!

@Shawn: Thank you my friend, love ya right back! About that run for president, well, I don't know if I could handle that, the Oval Office sounds like it would make me dizzy!

@Clacky: Thanks, I'll figure something else out!

@Mykola Mick Dementiuk: Ha ha ha! I agree!

@Fat Al: Thanks for the good wishes, still waiting to hear from Joan. Cheers and beers!

@Al: I was hoping it was going to work out too, but it was a little too much, I just need to keep looking. Thanks to you and everyone for the nice wishes! Happy Memorial Day! I'll be back with a post on Friday.

Hang in there Marty. As a gambler once wrote luck will come and go, good and bad, but skill remains a constant.

On a lighter note ever notice that Joan Jett sort of resembles Joyce DeWitt from Three's Company?

May 27, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterDaveW

Hang tough Marty. Fuck working for assholes. You will see it through, amigo. In the meantime, think of Joan Jet's sweaty underwear and bra covering your head. Sweet dreams are made of this.

May 27, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterMarco

@DaveW: Thanks, hopefully better things are on the horizon for me. I never thought about the Joyce DeWitt connection, but you are correct on that! I always had crush on her as well!

@Marco: Thank you amigo and thanks for that sweet dream inspiration! I'll be back this Friday!

JJ is one good looking woman. Puts me in a holiday mood. Thanks for coming back from hiflatus. Sip Ahoy!

You gotta do what you gotta do; I've been buried at work so much the last month that I haven't even had time to read the blog most days; can't imagine how rough it's gotta be to update it while not having time.

Caught a nasty cold yesterday and so the bad news is that I can't breathe through my nose; the good news is I'm off today and will get to read through a month of TWM goodness for the first time in peace. Feel like a kid on Christmas morning!

JUST SAY NO !!!
That's right......just say NO to !WORK! altogether. NO more being treated like shit. NO more unappreciative masters. NO more not gettin' paid what your woth. (And the BEST of all) NO more gettin' up in 'da mornin'!
JUST SAY FUCK IT!
GO on the dole....... TAKE the unemployment check........TAKE the social assistance bucks.......gather up ALL the food stamps you can find.........AND.........
BLOG 'DAT BROTHA!!!

Just think of it......a REAL LIVE blog watching a man's life fall apart. I BETCHA you'd make the NYTimes, and they would find you "fascinatingly repugnant and beautiful" at the same time......while the Voice would accuse you of "evilly exploiting his situation".

We could ALL share in the excitement as you sucked (for real) on a hobo-bag beer, as you stood out in the rain outside of McSorley's........as you passed out in front of the "old" location of the MARS BAR......as you trapped rats in the park......as you pulled on the pants legs of once old friends like EVG or Shawn (I'm POSITIVELY POSITIVE that Shawn's girlfriend would NEVER NEVER NEVER abandon you.....but Shawn I'm not sure about)......as you tried to take mirror shots, but they came out all blurry and shit....

I couldn't think of a NICER guy to watch implode.......it could be FUN Marty. Sleep on it and get back to me.

PS: In my teens back in Ohio, the word "tits" became the "awesome" of today for a couple of years. LOVED using it in front of easily shocked people......as in "That's tits man!"
Marty......YOU are TITS.......NEVER say die!!!

You are going to "post updates" on what, exactly? Job-hunting? Swizzle-stick hunting? Cheeseburger-chasing?
Oh, heck, good luck, and I look forward to continued amusing stuff from you.

May 28, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterBabyDave

A few posts are better than no post! Happy job hunting, Marty!

May 28, 2012 | Unregistered Commentermeleah rebeccah

Don't worry Marty, the right job will come your way. When Lady Gaga hires me I'll put in a good word for you. Then we can spend our days in her aluminum foil-walled office, pointing at the stapler and whispering, "Is THAT Lady Gaga?"

@Uncle Waltie: Joan Jett rules! Sip ahoy!

@JAZ: Sorry to hear about the cold and being buried at work. Glad you have the day off and I'm honored to hear you're spending it reading TWM! I'll be back with a new post on Friday.

@DrBOP: That idea is tits! Thanks for the fun comment, as always!

@BabyDave: I'll post updates about all of those and more. But truthfully, I'll just be winging it as always!

@meleah: Thanks for the good wishes, I appreciate it!

@THE NOTORIOUS L.I.B.E.R.A.T.I.O.N: Now that sounds like the job of the century, call me when it's available!

May 28, 2012 | Registered CommenterTripping With Marty

@THE NOTORIOUS L.I.B.E.R.A.T.I.O.N.: I don't know why, but two employees wondering if the stapler is their employer Lady Gaga keeps busting my sides. It keeps replaying in my head and isn't getting less funny. Someone call the men in white with butterfly nets.

Whatever, whenever, your faithful followers await you and wish you luck! BTW, checked out Ruby's on the boardwalk Sunday and it looks GREAT! Still divey!!! We'll have to meet youse there & buy youse a beer...

May 29, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterKatrink

@Katrink: Thanks! Great to hear about Ruby's, I look forward to buying you a beer there! Maybe this Sunday?

May 29, 2012 | Registered CommenterTripping With Marty

Hey Marty - we generally don't hang out there except for 3-day weekends (in case we overindulge!). But maybe we can do a Saturday afternoon or Friday night sometime?

May 30, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterKatrink

@Katrink: Sounds good, send me an email sometime and we'll work on it! Put "tripping with marty" in the subject line, because I get a ton of spam.

May 30, 2012 | Registered CommenterTripping With Marty

looking forward to you posting this weekend.

May 30, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterDan

@Dan: Thanks, there'll be a new post up Friday, possibly featuring TWM commenter, Biff! Stay tuned!

May 30, 2012 | Registered CommenterTripping With Marty

Fuck. I've thought I sitting here in the future with my bud tall boys and potato chips re-reading all of your old posts, as it turns out that I went into the past and have been reading all of the old posts as they were being written. Damn...got to get that flux capacitor checked out. Good to see you're back...even if in a limited capacity for now.

I could do a guest slot called "Boozing With Randall" where I go into different bars and drink the "All American Combo" of Jack Daniels shots and Bud Bottles, finish it off with a hot dog with sauerkraut, red onions and ketchup and mustard and then bet on how long before it appears again. It can have a musical component where I go into a yuppie bar load up the juke with a $20 bill and play old Lefty Frizzell and Ray Price songs.

First of all, @ Shawn Chittle: Word.

And B) Joan Jett is not just beautiful, she's honest, raw, talented, and fuckin smart. That's power, kids. She's my American Idol.

May 31, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterBiff

Oh, and don't let the bastards get you down, Wombacher.

May 31, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterBiff

@randall: Sounds like a smashing idea, let me know when you put it together!

@Biff: In total agreement about Joan Jett! And it's not the bastards that have me down, it's the shitty time we seem to be living in, but at least there's beer in my fridge for now, so I shouldn't be compaining! Oh, and some of it is Miller Lite, when are you coming over to drink it up?

May 31, 2012 | Registered CommenterTripping With Marty

I'm gonna get you one of those "Life Alert Bracelets", Marty.

May 31, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterUncle Waltie

@Uncle Waltie: Thanks, Uncle Waltie, my jewelry collection is frightfully low and it will be a welcome addition! Sip Ahoy!
