Al Joleson's Donut World

Yes it mus be All Hallow's Eve indeed. For there can be no other explaination as to why the Dunkin Donuts manager today was wearing an afro wig, gold chain with a huge dollar symbol, and black face. I shit you not. I wanted to take a picture but I was too horrified.

Oh, you *must* go back and take a picture! The DD near my house is always completely decorated on Halloween--black lights, creepy music, everyone in costume....it's fun, but pretty weird. I think Jak-El would never want a strawberry frosted doughnut again if I took him there today.

Sparkle Plenty said...

Ooooh...now, that IS creepy.

Lois Lane said...

Buggers! Just went to DD to get coffee and not only were the employees not in costume, but the decorations were just a few lame plastic gravestones and some plastic spiders strewn on cotton ball type materials. Ooooh, bugs in the snow! C'mon people! If we can't trust our fast food providers to give us quality holiday horror, who can we trust?

Sparkle Plenty said...

Actually, whenever I glimpse the doins' in a restaurant kitchen it spooks me. Some grisly, grisly stuff goes on behind the scenes.

("Bugs in the snow"! I like it!)

Sparkle Plenty said...

Happy Day After Jolson Day, Bacon Ace! Don't know what you were babblin' about on my blog...I mentioned your costume, and a mighty fine costume it was! :-)

Clinky said...

That's right, it's spelled "Jolson," dumbass!

Sparkle Plenty said...

Oh, dear lord. Is that the smell of moldy bacon?

Cake said...

Moldy bacon...that might even be worse than the smell of BURNT bacon. Ewwww.

bacon ace said...

::freshens up and scrapes away mold::

No no I'm good see? I can't post a lot from work and my nights have been mostly filled, but my thoughts are with you nutbags. I'll post as much as I can.

Sparkle Plenty said...

Uh, nutbags?

Looks over right shoulder, looks over left shoulder

Did he just call us "nutbags," Miss Cakie?

bacon ace said...

In the most affectionate way possible I sure did.

Sparkle Plenty said...

Meh, I guess that's okay then.

bacon ace said...

Nutbags are so easily swayed.

Cake said...

::gasp::

He called us nutbags TWICE!? That's it, get out the tofu...

Sparkle Plenty said...

Prepares to open a can of righteous whoop-ass on Bacon Ace

HUH! And if you wrong us, Warrior, shall we not revenge?

Cake said...

So now we're uppity nutbags!?

::smears tofu in Bacon Ace's face::

bacon ace said...

Hmmm... maybe my compliments didn't translate well to Canadian.

Cake said...

::runs Bacon Ace's comments through a US-Canadian translator::

"Where's NoOprah? He's missing out on the charming company of these lovely ladies and their witty comments."

Oh, I take back my tofu...that WAS nice. So sorry I doubted you!

Sparkle Plenty said...

Dear Cakie,

I refer you to Bacon Ace's comment of November 6, 2007 12:02 PM (i.e., "Nutbags are so easily swayed").

Please keep the tofu close at hand. Just in case. Me? I am stealthily buying up all bacon on the eastern seaboard. Just you call me a nutbag when I'm a bacon magnate, mistah!

Love,
Sparkle

Lois Lane said...

"Just you call me a nutbag when I'm a bacon magnate, mistah!"

Um, Sparkle? Why do you want bacon to stick to you? I think that might prove Bacon Ace's theory that all us broads are nutbags...

Huh? Magnate means what....?

Oh. Never mind.

::pulls down jaunty hat, sneaks away::

bacon ace said...

"I am stealthily buying up all bacon on the eastern seaboard."

Bacon sense tingling! Aha! Now I know where you live fool! Bacony retribution shall be delivered...with extreme prejudice.

Cake,
Glad you understand and that we could avoid an international incident.

Sparkle Plenty said...

HA! You fell for my clever ploy, Sir Sideburns! I am buying up all the bacon on the eastern seaboard VIA THE INTERNET. Me? I live in a pineapple under the sea. Or somethin'.

Sparkle Plenty said...

Meh, Sideburnian Slackah.

bacon ace said...

Blame the new job and new woman.

Sparkle Plenty said...

Naw, it's more fun to name-call!

bacon ace said...

Good point. I'll allow it.

Cake said...

[censored] new job and new woman! ::shakes fist::

bacon ace said...

Did you just shake a fist at my woman? Cake don't make me choose between my imaginary blogging friends (none of you are real) and my lady.

Cake said...

::shakes a semi-imaginary fist at Ace's woman::

::waits to see what happens::

bacon ace said...

I'm telling you Cake I'd be careful. She a Texan.

Cake said...

Texan!? Texan?? Why would I be afraid of a TEXAN?

::falls over laughing::

bacon ace said...

They're not all retarded like George Bush. Please oh please don't judge us all by him?

bacon ace said...

And don't forget; Texans are ornery.

bacon ace said...

"Why would I be afraid of a TEXAN?"

And more to the point you're Canadian. Come on Cake, on a good day the Salvation Army could overtake your country.

Cake said...

You met me...don't you remember how ornery I am? I could SO take a Texan!

::boxes the air::

(Please don't call my bluff. I'm sorry, I'm sorry...here, have some bacon.)

Cake said...

At The Other Job yesterday, we got to discussing which State could actually invade Canada successfully.

We agreed on Minnesota.

Bring on the Texans!

bacon ace said...

OK I'll keep the secret of your meekness to myself, though you're Canadian so I think people already knew.


Hmmm Minnestota and Michigan both have their own militia. I'm sure Texas does to. I'd say it's a race.
Also, I love the fact that Canadians are sitting around at work wondering what US state will invade their country.

bacon ace said...

"don't you remember how ornery I am?"

Now that you mention it you did wish AIDS uppon me at our first meeting. Though that seemed more spiteful than ornery, or ournery if you prefer.

Cake said...

Eggs, eggs, I swear it was eggs! Honest to god!

::cracks up:: (unintentionally punny, I swear)

I left out the bit where we were gonna retaliate by taking NYC while the rest of your country is shivering inside during the winter.

Oh, and possibly Boston. Just for kicks.

Sparkle Plenty said...

I can't speak to the eggs/AIDS controversy, but I can say:

TEXAS? SHE'S FROM TEXAS????????? COWGIRL*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BACON ACE SHOOTS, BACON ACE SCORES!

*Close enough to Japanese cowgirl for government work!

bacon ace said...

Well Sparkle she does own a horse...

Sparkle Plenty said...

Yeehaw!

Cake said...

I love that Sparkle's cowgirl shout has left Bacon Ace speechless.

Baked haddock!

bacon ace said...

Speechless, or in harmony with Sparkles words?

Cake said...

Yeehaw!

Lois Lane said...

Maybe the cowgirl could write a blog entry?

bacon ace said...

Lois,
Are you infering that I made up this cowgirl?

Cake said...

Ha! I don't think she was but now that you mention it...I think I'm gonna call her "Harvey" until I see proof that she exists.

bacon ace said...

Fine. When I get some time I'll post some Haloween costume pics. Though given our costumes I'm not sure it would really convince you of her being my "girl"friend.

asian cowgirl said...

Howdy. So I know this is cyberspace, so there is always a chance I'm just a fabrication, but irregardless, for the sake of this blog, I felt compelled to emote. So yes, I exist. And this Baconmeister is my Man. True Blue.

Wild. Like Texas.

And as for me, other than Bacon and BBQ, I like sushi, Samurai, and know how to say "Hello, Beautiful" in Mandarin. And I was in a Chinese Lion Dance troupe in college. And it's true I have a horse. So That probably makes me as close to being an asian cowgirl as any asian cowgirl.

Happy one month Ace!

Cake said...

Hey! You exist. Welcome to the weirdness.

I hereby humbly apologize to Mr. Ace for my doubting ways. Here, have a bacon cupcake!
