Polly the Inflatible Ho’

Polly the Inflatible Ho'Here’s something I’m willing to wager you won’t run across on any of the other small home/sustainable architecture blogs…  Polly the Inflatible Ho’.

I’m not kidding when I tell you that I never know what I’m going to see when I look outside my front window.  Sunset, in particular, tends to be a time for interesting sights.  Admittedly, Polly is perhaps even a bit more unusual than most.

Two doors down from me is The Snack Shack, inhabited by Paul and Brenda, two of the main culprits in why “E-Walk” has the reputation as party-central in the marina.

Anyway, when I glanced up from my work this evening, Paul was peddling by with Polly the Inflatible Ho’ as his boat-mate. Paul and Polly have been busy paddling around derailing evening traffic in the marina for the last half hour or so.

Apparently this was her maiden voyage in preparation for July 4th weekend when the marina will be flooded with vistors.  (Although, as I’ve informed Paul, I’m not sure there’s anything about Polly that qualifies as “maiden”.)

Female inhabitants of “E-Walk” are currently conspiring to track down a platinum blond wig for her.  I’ve suggested a beer bottle for the mouth.  Although, I can’t really decide if that would make Polly more or less child friendly.

    I suspect that would the whole nipples peeking over the top of the swimsuit thing, but I’ll suggest it to Paul the next time I see him. Love the irony in that.

    Actually just snuck out to try to put one on her before Paul got up and headed to work this morning, but it looks like they took her inside. Will have to keep my eyes out for a good opportunity.

    I’m not creative enough to make this stuff up.
