The Unauthorized Autobiography

Was going through a drawer today and found this set of 6 vintage coasters that I bought a million years ago, I think in Toronto at a second-hand shop.

Aren’t they adorable? The “records” are even grooved.

I wonder what they’d be worth? I’m not going to put them in my charity box. I would prefer someone to have them who would go nuts over them.

Some of you covet these. I’ve decided to gift them to whoever writes the best request. Your request must include at least one pun. Tag with #coasters.

My god! They’re simply divinyl! You’re right; I love the coasters. Are you sure you didn’t get them Down In Mexico? That’s enough Yakity Yak, or this post will have a record number of terrible jokes. Happy new beer!

This is essentially how I dressed for the beach in Hawaii, too.

Gay Teen Ideas…

I must say I had a few, in my day.

Is that a compact revolver?
