Craigslist: August Is Upon Us

Can you believe that August is almost here? The heat certainly seems to make the summer fly by. Perhaps it's all the fun in the sun, or perhaps it's all of those connections almost made. We've taken some time to wrap up the best of last week's Missed Connections.
Me: Pink Tracksuit You: African American man stealing my bike

I ran after you for quite some time but you sped away. Please return it!
* this is in or around Punchout
We keep seeing these guys on the H&B but just thought they were training for the next big bout, apparently we were wrong. Good luck catching him.
to the girl who mooned us - m4w
thanks. you made all my customers' nights. stop in again and smoke a hookah. * this is in or around the drag
Perhaps there's a new business model in this? We could hire Leslie, Bums with wacky signs, and Drag Worms to moon people on a Keep Austin Weird tour. Ehh, perhaps not.
Last night, someone stole my Gumby. This baffles me, because all I did was clean my house by myself, let everyone hangout at my house, bought them all free beer, made punch for their ladies, let them eat all the food in my kitchen, and made sure we all had a good time. And then what happens? Someone steals my shit. I loved my Gumby. It's life size, like 4 feet tall. Someone took this from and I am pissed. If anyone out there in internet land notices a new Gumby at their friend's house, help me out. It was mine. Shouldn't that mean something? Damn.
Was he seen hanging out with a small clay horse? Because that Pokey dude is a bad influence. He might not have been stolen, he might just be on a bender.
You: Beautiful blonde in your forties with cute little silver hoop earrings. Me: Small, with feathers and tiny brain. How long will I have to bang my head before you let me in? Open the window to your beautiful home and let's have a drink.
Austinist in no way condones the torture of birds or other cute animals. We highly recommend putting the shades down.
That's it for this week. If we missed any of your favorites just post them for us all to view. We'll be back next week with a new round up. Until then, may you find Peace, Love and Connections.
