mt. adams shows it's mediterranean side

greetings mountaineers

hooba here with great news from mediterranea. our friend mt. adams has shown it's face again after a few weeks being awol. might be i haven't been around to see it but today it truly shone in all it's glory. for those of you church goers i would encourage a visit to the porch here at hooba's to experience just what the almighty has to offer. our church without walls is one of a kind. the burgers run a distant second. we do have four pews for those of you who feel it necessary to kneel.

the very large tv is up and running thanks to mr. haney, ian and john. safe to say it's the largest in husum and most likely the surrounding area. nothing says great bar like a big screen even if we don't give a rat's ass about nascar. apologies to gerald who enjoyed every minute of today's race. i would anticipate that we might even consider showing figure skating in the future as we're all about equal time, kinda like the campaign ads. speaking of campaigns hooba is considering an amendment to eliminate neckties. since i don't own one why should anyone else? methinks it constricts the flow of blood and relevant thought to the brain. some of you may have to wear one to work but i'm thinking your iq would be higher without it. just a thought.

i thought a little movie trivia last week might stump most of you but was i surprised. scott, jim, jim, paul, lorrie, and our own kate wood knew of what i spoke regarding peter sellers and being there. hooba ain't much of a movie goer but chauncey walking down the median in dc to the sounds of 2001 a space odyessy after losing his gardening job is a classic. name this one, nobody get's out of life alive, and the movie, and the star, movie junkies. more swell prizes for the right answer. andria found the boot with a bit of help from a modrich so it could be time to be more discerning on where it's hidden. imagine your glee when you find it when not even looking.

ratso the catso just realized that this is the year of the rat in china. imagine her surprise when they honored her with an entire year of festivities. since her trip to the vet she's celebrating like she knows how to party even if the venue is only a half acre with assorted junk and crap. she loves the crib as do the owners. i would encourage all of you, who like myself were never cat lovers, to get a stray form the humane society and let'em loose. ratso has better insurance than yours truly. mine starts march 1.

the winds of change are blowing and for some reason winter wasn't as bad as advertised. i'm contemplating live entertainment starting in march with a local crew who seem to carry a tune or two. i'll keep you posted. my ku prediction last week was not quite accurate but hey we can't win every game. so long as we show up march 31st i'll be happy. i would encourage you all to be happy and let us know what we can do to make your lives easier. until next week i'll remain contemplative.

Hooba's Of Husum

ratso to remain neutral but endorses hooba's fish tacos

greetings loyal customers and friends


hooba here hoping all is well and you're not going through football withdrawal. nothing like an outstanding pro bowl to end another nfl season. quite the super bowl eh? thirteen of our loyal customers were on hand at the first annual super bowl party here in husum. when you're selling 10 cent squares for the pool the payout tends to be not so much. that was joel's idea. yours truly is already looking forward to spring training with great zeal while anticipating a jayhawk final four run. i like our chances. who's running for president or should i ask, who cares?

ratso the catso is weighing in on the coming election by accepting a life of neutrality. friday she was rendered swiss for life by a local animal plumbing specialist. much like her owner she's proven to be less than a model patient. seems low key and sedate wasn't what she had in mind upon her release a mere 24 hours after surgery. her return to the hacienda excited the little feline to such an extent that running, jumping, and frolicking, against advice from a professional, would make her the poster cat for recovery and rehab. could have been the pain medication. we admire her spunk and appreciate that the homestead won't be overrun with kittens courtesy of some local tom. is there a tom running for president?

thanks to all of our favorite regulars for dropping by this weekend to brighten things up a bit. the distance traveled by our friends dave and eva from vantucky and jim's crew out goldendale way once again proves that mediterranea truly does exist here in the wilds of the gorge. it helps that most of the snow has melted to insure that we do have grass and dirt below. trout lake is a different story altogether i hear. as chauncey the gardener would say, "there will be growth in the spring." name the movie and win swell prizes. if the green boot ain't found soon we'll retire it to the to the foot it came off of.


some of you have expressed interest in having a little get together to view next weeks "redneck road race" from daytona. relax. thanks to our friend chuck, hooba has procured a very large plasma tv for our viewing pleasure. there's no guarantee it will be fully operational but john says he'll try to make it happen. plan b is the zenith which has served us well up to now. the quality goes in before the name goes on. since my favorite left turn is the one that gets me home each night i'll plead ignorance on how that nascar stuff works. i'd come, like most of you do, just for the food.


i was chastised mercilessly this weekend for not being regular with the news from mediterranea. moonlighting has affected my schedule moreso than anticipated. i'll try to start the week with the husum update hopeful that it will make many of you forget it's monday for as long as it takes to delete my ramblings. the wine event is a go so send suggestions. more later or at least next week. where's the harmony?
