NOBAMA IN 2008!!!!

My New Slogan

I try to be non-partisan when it comes to politics. As a Christian, I feel that I should weigh the issues and not play to the political sway from both parties. As a matter of fact, I feel that all politicians are big fat liars anyway. So I research and try to find one that supports issues I support.

It snuck up on me this year. I didn't have time to research much, but McCain seemed too closely tied to Bush, and I felt it was time for change. My friends told me, but I voted for him anyway. In the primary, I voted for Obama.

Another factor influenced me too. My sweet mother, God bless her, raised us to be color-blind, and to respect the influence of Martin Luther King Jr and the civil rights leaders of the 1960's. So, because he is black (well, kind of arab, white and black, but you know, at least part black) I jumped on the bandwagon. It would be great for our nation to have a president that has black in his heritage. It would show how far we have come as a nation in our quest for equality.

But his incredible shrinking head has become more and more visible. It is quickly becoming more apparent that he is in fact an empty suit. Maybe I was wrong. Sorry, I WAS wrong.

I have jumped ship. And I now support the hot librarian and the old guy.

The Very Hot Sarah Palin

If she makes it into office, she will be by far the best looking person ever in office. And I personally would love to see her in the news, as opposed to anyone else currently running.

I recently saw this website and thought you all might like to see it. Funny stuff over there.

Good luck in choosing your political candidate this year. But for me, Obama can "keep the change."

Sheriff's Department Cannot Operate a Fax Machine

Seal of Brazoria County, "Where Texas Began"

This is a true story. None of the facts have been changed, because of the stupity of the situation.

Recently while on vacation, I was ticketed for no insurance. It was in a car I rarely drive, and the ticket was promptly placed into the glove box and forgotten. Until this weekend.

I received a call from the Brazoria County Sherrif's office informing me of a warrant for my arrest for non-payment of the ticket. As it turns out, I just needed to show them my insurance card, which was not in the car, because I only drive that 4-wheel drive to the coast. Which also explains why I never saw it again. It hasn't moved since we returned from the coast.

So this morning, I attempted to fax my insurance card to the Sherriff's Department to resolve the issue. I faxed it and called. Not there. An hour later, i faxed it again. Not there.

At the risk of sounding like an ass, I requested that the clerk verify the fax machine had paper in it. It did. However, the toner cartridge is out. She didn't know how to change it, and even she did, she didn't know where they were kept. No shitting.

Our resolution, tomorrow, the "city lady" will be in (she only works a half day, no shitting) and she know how to change the toner cartridge. She will then print the fax, adjust the ticket, and see if I owe anything at that point. In the meantime, I should "try to not get stopped" or I might go to jail.

No shitting.

Two of Brazoria County's Finest, not the one who gave me the ticket

Chinese People Eat Weird Stuff

This is what a chinese person looks like

This guy has a strange new diet. I have heard of strange things being eaten by chinese people: rats, dogs and other things. But a canadian? WTH?

Morgan Freeman in Serious Car Accident

The Great Morgan Freeman

So Morgan Freeman was involved in a serious car accident this weekend. At the time of this writing he is in serious condition in the hospital.

This academy award winning actor has been a favorite of mine for many years. His fine work includes: Million Dollar Baby, Seven, Driving Miss Daisy, The Bucket List, Bruce Almighty, Evan Almighty, Amistad, Nurse Betty and tons more movies. Not the least of which was his role as the narrator of the wildly popular film, March of the Penguins.

This blog wishes Mr. Freeman Godspeed in his recovery.

This blog also wants to know, "what the hell you doin' driving a 1997 Maxima?"

Well?

The nursing double standard - tit for Tad

Golden Retriever Nurses Tigers

So at a Kansas zoo, a golden retriever has adopted tiger cubs, and is nursing them. Its such a heart-warming story that makes everyone go, "awwwwwwweeee." How cute!!

But there are questions that come to mind:

Will the tigers bark or growl?

Will the males now lift their leg when they pee?

Inquiring minds need to know.

Another story talks about a new trend in breastfeeding. It seems some moms have started "cross-feeding" their kids. That means Susan is now breastfeeding Janet's baby, and vice-versa.

A mom breastfeeding someone else's baby (click for the story) seems gross to some.

Is it a double standard? Should mommy boobies be reserved only for their own babies? Some argue its a natural progression in breastfeeding. Others would say its just icky.

What say you?? <-- your invitation to comment

Just a reminder that hunting season is right around the corner.

Sorry, I've been busy...

Its certainly good to be back (I love talking to myself).

I have been in hiding, and could not untie my hands in order to post.

Happy 4th of July.

Funny Blog

This guy really hits the nail on the head. And since I am beyond buried in tax season, and have had all my creativeness sucked right out of my brain, a little tidbit for you.

This will be really funny to some of you, and for those who it is not funny to, please go to church sometime. Then this stuff will also make you laugh.

Please notice I made no mention of my incorrect prediction of the Kansas NCAA win. Let's face it pics of squids are funnier.

Basketball

Coach Calipari

Kansas v Memphis

In spite of Digger (boogers?) Phelps insistence that Memphis' inability to hit a free throw would remove them from the NCAA tourney. They made it into the final four, and are now in the championship game. While Calipari defended his boys by saying "they would hit the free throws when it mattered."

I thought he was full of crap. But while they have hit a paltry .613 for the season, they hit 20 of 23 against UCLA. Pretty salty.

And while they have a coach whose name sounds more like an appetizer at Macaroni Grill, you have to respect a guy who has gotten what he has out of a team from a second tier conference. Get your scissors ready Memphis.

Gratitude...

Well, I was feeling pretty sorry for myself last night and this morning. My Gentlemen Bears were ousted in the first round of the NCAA Tourney. I spent 3 hours in the dentist chair yesterday afternoon, (lovely way to spend a Friday afternoon) and my mouth is extremely sore.

Then today, I found out a couple things that have helped me have a little perspective.

A friend was riding his kids scooter last night. He now has a broken arm related to said scooter adventure.

But the worst I just found out. My daughter's best friend has a dad that is really into motorcycles. Last night while riding, he was hit by a car and had his leg severed. As in crushed, and fell off. Think lots of blood here. If you are the praying type, say a few for him please.

As for me, I have nothing to whine about. A couple Alleve will cure all my ills today, and I have no casts, and all my limbs. I am thankful.

Happy Easter!!!
