Is the Universe talking to me?

I am back. I did read something interesting, funny?, today. Apparently, there is an alcohol cloud, or clouds, out there in the Universe. There is, in fact, one in our galaxy, the Milky Way. Now, I am left to wonder if I have been through that cloud and if not, do I want to go there.

I often feel as if I have been there but I am now thinking that this could be the next global, hot party destination. Picture Lindsay Lohan in the alcohol cloud with Paris Hilton. Given, that it is a cloud of methyl alcohol and not ethyl alcohol, I like that idea. Drinking methanol can cause blindness and death. Drinking ethanol can cause euphoria, sleeping with pigs, puking and perhaps, death, if enough is consumed. In any event, ethanol has the potential for more fun than methanol.

Of course, with methanol the results are bad and assured. With ethanol, there is a lot of fun, or embarrassing stories that you will not remember, before the real bad stuff happens. Then again, what do I know?

But really how cool is an alcohol cloud. I am saying road trip! In fact, I am saying let's steer this MFing planet to the cloud. I think we could all afford to loosen up a bit, have some fun and party down. The Muslims might object but I am thinking they are too busy dealing with cartoons about their beloved prophet, so they may not notice until it is too late, and they have lightened up a bit. I digress as this is not about the followers of Islam it is about alcohol in them there clouds.

There I go again, trying to self medicate and drown my sorrows, such that they are, I mean we all have our troubles and mine are really not that bad when I think about it, but of course the worst part of them are that they are mine, but that is a story for another and run-on sentence. Still, given the number of friends and relatives I have who are celebrating birthdays today (Chris, Peter, Megan and my cousin Jeffrey, who does not work for the Parks Department) a short trip to the alcohol cloud sounds like a lot of fun.

Ciao for now as I think that I have my head in the clouds.
