Hot Rod

I loved this in the theater and had to have it when it came out on DVD. Andy Samberg is just plain funny and his "crew" are the best dufuses that have ever graced the big screen. I'm not gonna spoil it - you have to watch this movie!Lovejoy made a great stepdad and Borat's Babymama was a fun and cute chick for Rod to awkwardly try to woo.QUOTES:"This is my hat now! This is totally my hat! ""

Women... Ain't they great?!

2007-06-14T23:45:00.000-05:00

I'm not complaining. Really I'm not. I have the greatest wife and we get along fantabulistically. But sheez Louise! Is there some kind of genetic defect that keeps them from understanding the importance of the UFC?Here I am watching the semi-final round of the ultimate fighter between Nate Diaz and Gray Maynard. It's a crucial moment when Diaz is executing an attempt at a Kimora and Gray is

I have started a new service that is doing really well.What I have done is put stickers up on Handicapped parking spaces all over town that say "handicapped parkin enforcement - to report violators call" and then my cell #Crippled people and little old ladies call me up, I vandalize the offending vehicle or beat up the offender (if he is available). The grateful cripples tip real well!

Liquid Air

2006-06-22T00:12:00.000-05:00

So tonight it was raining. I didn't take the dogs for their walky walky till 11pm. It had stopped raining. There was a marvelous steam pulsing from the pavement and the air was thick. There were drops of water just dangling in the air. You could walk right past them - they looked like jello.The pups were happy to be out in the muggy wuggy. I was all sticky and called it off after just a mile.

The Kids are back in town

2006-03-27T23:12:00.000-05:00

Spring break has broke and we have been overrun by chillens!

Li'l Chickies have been callin out for the boys and the guys have been seeking babe-age all over the beach!The fun has been massive

Who's the racist?

2006-02-02T10:52:00.000-05:00

So I was bored today and looked at the US Census (census.gov). Types in Ted Kennedy's zip code 02647 and looked at the racial makeup of his community. Go ahead, clicky clicky.As you'll note there are no non-white houses in his zip code. Now we see Trenton, NJ. This is where Samuel Alito grew up. He has been interacting with black folk all his life. Teddy has only seen black people who are

So after raking Judge Alito (or as the post-martini Senator said it "Alioto", Or "Scalito") over the coals for having a membership, for a short time, twenty years ago, in an organization that didn't want specials standards for minorities entering Princeton; Teddy got called out about his ACTIVE membership in the Owl Club. The Owl Club is a men-only club that was thrown off the campus of Harvard

What color is this light?

2006-01-10T09:07:00.000-05:00

So hereI am lookin gat this - There is a traffic signal there, I assure you.How am I supposed to know when to go? Lucky for me I have all the kind people behind me to see the light for me - They are so kind as to honk the ever-lovin' bejeezers out of their horn. Then I know it's time to go.

Dangit! Just after I came home and put away the last gift for my wife, she comes beeboppin in with a couple bags that she secreted away from me. Now I have to go out again and buy some freakin other thing.

Can I have my cord back?

2005-11-05T19:46:00.000-05:00

So about two hours ago this kid from the shack next to my office came by and asked to borrow an extension cord."Sure" I said, "just make sure to bring it back."About 2 minutes after the cord went over, the music started - Ozzy. Now this is a kid that at most is ten years old - little innocent looking sk8tr who is always doing tricks on the stage we have next to the beach."I AM IRON MAN" is at

So our second Pine tree out back has gone to poopoo. It still has about three green branches on it but it's going down tomorrow. The old owner planted the thing too close to the back of the house and we were continually having to trim it to keep it off the house and the needles and cones were forever botching up the gutters. It will open up a better line to see that side of the yard from the

I'm going against my own advice and stretching out my point on brevity.Hippocrates: "The chief virtue that language can have is clearness, and nothing detracts from it so much as the use of unfamiliar words."Thomas Jefferson: "The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two words when one will do."Albert Einstein: "If you can't explain something simply, you don't understand it well."

It was just a weird day all around. In fact, it was so bad that I called the behaviorist. When I got home, everything seemed OK, but

Why are women so stupid?

2005-09-15T08:44:00.000-05:00

I mean really, French Pedicures? We all know that allfrench women are perfectly coiffured and have imaculate hygene but why inthe heckare chicks all over America doing this thing where they put the little white stripes on the edge of their toenails? and why do they have a quarter inch of claw haning off the edge of their toes anyway? What, are they climbing telephone poles? What could women

I just had to add theis link becaus it is wonderful. Britney's guide to semiconductor physics.It is amazing that she had the time to study - let alone explain this tough subject what with her singing career, motherhood and tv reality show and all. Did you see the episode where she and Kevin got the Schrödinger equation tattooed on their inner thighs? Now that's Reality TV!

Sunday Morning Wakeup Call

2005-09-04T14:37:00.000-05:00

7AM - I worked till 11 last night and didn't really get to bed till 3AM. Sooooo I wasn't really happy when Skittles the Wonder Dog (played by Ed from The Lion King) Came scratching and whining at 7AM.He (accompanied by Maddie - played by Nala) went out and had a great time peeing and pooping and sniffing and licking themselves and each other. For about ten minutes. Just as I had settled back

The price of gas and beach bums

2005-09-03T01:00:00.000-05:00

So tonight I sat and waited for the freakin tourists to show up. Normally I am so annoyed with Labor Day and can't wait for the throngs of blibbety-blabs to get the giggety giggety out of town so I can have my beach back Tonight however was a real experience. I rented two rooms - one to a local. Either the price of gas put the trip out of the reach of many families or folks decided to give

So i found this from the Boston globe.The Cindy Sheehan you don't knowBy Cathy Young, Globe Columnist | August 22, 2005IT IS ENORMOUSLY difficult to say anything critical about Cindy Sheehan, the Everymom of the antiwar movement, without sounding indecently callous.

2005-07-29T17:06:00.000-05:00

Well, it's official! There will now be one gazillion more rednecks headin to the Redneck Riviera this year. The explosion in Condo building on the north end of the grand strand has assured more "ignernt jaluliments" than ever before. As if we didn't have enough gugenflems cloggin up the streets and walking around all sunburnt and irritable. So now this boom in building has them draining

The Island of The Experiment

2005-07-26T11:39:00.000-05:00

I really wanted to go to the Island - phooey! I really liked the new movie "The Island" It reminded me of a novel by John Darnton The Experiment. The premise is identical but the movie has a lot more explosions and hovertrains and such (huda thunkit?). It was the second thriller type movie we took Nathanga to and he really enjoyed it! He did cover his face during the one brief kissykissy,

The Old High Horse

2005-06-26T20:39:00.000-05:00

I remember when old Jake (who was tired of my Dad trying to get him off the sauce) told My Dad to "get down off yer high horse".At that age I didn't understand why he'd say that. We only had ponies and they were not 'specially high even for Welshes. One time when I was about four we had Dixie, a Quarterhorse - but that was in Alabama and Jake didn't even know us then. How come he'd want my dad

Rainy day in paradise

2005-06-25T20:05:00.000-05:00

Woke up at 8 to the sound of rain. Not the joyous sound of an afternoon thunderstorm - whoosh, boom, boom, cricketchirp it's over. The moanful sound of an all-day, Saturday, rain. Crap! Got to get the dogs out anyway before they crap, or whatever, after 8 hours inside.Now the dogs come back in all happy to have peed and pooped. They are soaked, wringing and shaking themselves to no end then

Personal Property? not any more

2005-06-24T19:19:00.000-05:00

The Supreme court called today and told me they were gonna give my house to some old lady who likes cats. - Because it would be nice for everybody in the community to have someone to hate.I even said that I would start raising goats if that would make them happy but apparently goats aren't in the "best interest of the community".Dang.Well, What are you gonna do? You can't expect to just be able

2005-06-23T17:19:00.000-05:00

My most peaceful day at the beach ever!

It Worked!

2005-06-08T21:34:00.000-05:00

Since I commanded the sun come out it has (with a vengance!) Me and the boy hit the beach fer 1 hour the other day and was sunbernt (even with sunscreen) but it was great - the water is almost perfect, just a little cool but that goes away after you get yer first dunkin.So as i got ready to head to work tonight Nathanga says he wants to switch his room with the back office because it's bigger.

There ya go flowers!

2005-06-03T19:07:00.000-05:00

OK i think the flowers have got enough rain now. I got a faint glimpse of blue in the sky today. I blinked and it was gone. Grey! gray! greigh!It will have to be sunny tomorrow. I will not tolerate one more day of rain!I HAVE SPOKEN!but if it rains tomorrow i'll just lay in bed and watch movies.

2005-05-18T20:13:00.000-05:00

The first Rose of Spring

2005-03-24T21:38:00.000-05:00

It's barely spring and we already have our first rose! I cut it this evening on the way back from paying the waterbill. could our ancestors believe we pay for water?Would they think it was a good deal? I mean it was free for Great Granpappy Zebadiah, but he had to hike down to the river and haul it ack in a bucket. One bucket at a time. It might take an hours work for 5 gallons of water and we

Boohbah's Back - i think

2005-03-06T13:23:00.000-05:00

So last night about 3am I was awakened in a start.I had been dreaming of the freakin' Boohbah! I changed channels on the TV to 113 - nice boring history stuff. I gave Seachele a peck and nestled all snug.BOOOOOOOBAAAAAAAAH!What the heck? I wasn't even asleep yet and already I'm letting this thing get to me. It was still going - the whole boobah song. I got up and looked around partly to make

booba?

2005-02-17T19:22:00.000-05:00

My little boohbah is gone bye bye. I looked far and wide over hill and dale (is that dell?) Who's Dale? Whose dell is Dale in? This isn't a Dell, It's a custom-built gamer with a Soyo Moboand a tricked out GC. Where did my boohbah go?I searched high and low. I wasn't really high - maybe a little under the weather, but not intoxified in any way whatsoever. Whatever.Has anyone seen my boohbah?

Boooohhh Baaaaahh

2005-02-13T22:02:00.000-05:00

The boohbah is a pleasure to have around. It's constant musical interludes are welcomed by all, except...Matti is almost a year old. We adopted her at Christmastime and she has been the center of our family life ever since. I'm not quite sure whether it was simple jealousy or the fact that the boohbah has been chattering away nonstop for the past three days, but suddenly, without provocation,

Boohbah!

2005-02-11T23:33:00.000-05:00

Tonight we left Nathanga at home with his Tron and schnuck out to get my boohbah!I like my boohbah and my boohbah likes me. See how yellow he is - he sings and dances and farts like there's no tomorrow! He fills right up with air and PLBBBBBBBBBBBB - he flys across the room. Please help save the boohbahs! Some mean men are selling boobah fur for womens clothing While other inhumane meanies

Pixar Does it Again!

2005-01-17T02:11:00.000-05:00

Just when you think Hollywood was finished making good movies. We took Nathanga to see the latest cartoon-type picture, I brought along Carl Hiaasen's Lucky You and led keychain light, just in case. I didn't even pull the book from my pocket. First off, I saw the Pixar logo - It had been a while since Finding Nemo, so that was a refreshing sight. As with all Pixar pics - we star with a

Gurrola of Firehouse Subs Dear Dr. XXXXX, Thank you for your email and for letting us know of the unfortunate placement of our inflatable fire hydrant at our Gator Hole store.

Firehouse Subs has blocked access for the disabled. The restaurant chain has a new marketing gimmick - the twenty-foot-tall fireplug. Great Idea - as long as you're not setting the thing up in a handicapped parking space. Not only did they use the space, but they covered the parking marking with extra cement block (were they trying to hide the marking? ) they used the signpost to designate

this happened - really!

2005-01-06T23:47:00.000-05:00

Strolling through the Bass Pro Shop tonight I was taken aback. Not shocked but befuddled. Right there on the aisle was a stack of boxes piled shoulder high. On each box in big letters was a phrase I had never seen before. I skidded to a halt and spun around to make sure my eyes were not fibbin. As I looked at Seachele I noticed that he had a smile on his face, too. We went back and sure enough

The End of Christmas

2005-01-05T23:25:00.000-05:00

Today i finally got all the ornaments and trees and "special tablecloths" and "Christmas towels" and vests and sweaters and sweatervests and lights back up in the attic. And i'm not bringing them back down. I'm serious. Not like the end of Remembering Christ's Birth. Just the end of the nonsense. It takes almost a week of dragging things down from the belfry; procuring more bedazzlers from

2004-12-30T19:10:00.000-05:00

I just discovered the best thing since actually running around and killing terrorists! Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 3 - I have never had so much fun with a video game! Nathanga got it for me this Christmas and i have played it every day since. From the planning to the execution (including all the heads up display), RB6 offers more choices, great live play, realistic play and graphics.

Myrtle Beach Christmas

2004-12-27T19:23:00.000-05:00

Talk about "Gift of the Magi" - I had put a lot of money into an account my wife never keeps money in. to buy her a Handcycle. She had been feeling ill and had not been shopping without me since October so I was sure she would not go into that account. A Christmas Miracle! My Mom and Sister came into town to "take care of SeaChele" - Translate "take shopping" She spent the whole lot on

Now when i get down it's uaually because my back hurts and the floor is a good firm surface to get the kinks out. Kinky used to be Afro hair (which is now called natural, but at one time was nappy) but then

It's been a crazy month with Wifey illin' and just now gettin back in the saddle. But we're all thankful for her dazzling recovery and her impending greatness.

2004-06-28T18:16:00.000-05:00

I watched Again last night and I never get over how great it is. The truly great movies never get much hype. But I'm gonna hype this one a little - Danny Devito, Bette Midler, Ben Afleck's little brother, and skads of great actors with a well-writtenplot that leaves you feeling like you know these people - and wishing you didn't at the same time. Check out this great flick

2004-06-15T19:54:00.000-05:00

I am being accused of hacking but all I am doing is using an unlocked internet signal. If someone leaves hte door to their house open and you walk in and sit down that's just being neighborly, right? Well I figure these folks just like everbody and want to be neighborly. The folks really should lock that signal down, though in case some unscruprlous character uses their signal for unlawful

Radio Shack is Great!

Radio Shack is Great! I bought an Ionizer there about a year ago that worked very well - helped a lot with my son's allergies and kept the joint free of dust. Couple weeks ago it just didn't work anymore. Emailed the customer service people at kaz.com who do the satisfaction work. Tole me to send it in- I did. Took about two weeks and they sent me a brand new one! I love Great American

Today on the way home I followed a "monster truck" down Ocean Boulevard. This thing was seventy thousand dollars worth of small penis compensation. Not only did he have the five-foot-tall tires and body lift kit (requiring a ladder which unfurled when the doors opened); the thing was powered by a full-scale cummins diesel with twin three inch smoke stacks towering up behind the cab.

2004-05-07T22:14:00.000-05:00

Ok htose soldiers should be punished for breaking protocol - BUT C"MON!!! They had to be nekked for a little bit. Even on their best day in Saddam's army they weren't treated as well as we treated them, Why the heck do you think they were falling all over themselves to surrender? Nobody was killed. There was no starvation. No one had a bruise. Not one prisoner needed a bandaid. These were

I'm sitting in a tanning salon right now using their wireless connection for free! Pretty cool, huh? well it would be if we didn't have a couple thousand alqueda agents looking for easy places to keep in touch with the wackos at base.If you have a wireless connection in your home, you open yourself up to hackers and make it easy for bad people to get away with internet communication without

Yesterday Natey got a bowling ball at the yard sale and had to try it out today. We were up at 7 am and ready for the day installed Nate's new wireless card. Go wireless yourself. He started looking up cheats for his game cube right away. Remember when cheating was frowned upon? Now the kids think a cheat is a reward for google-izing. Google Eyezing used to be what led to babies being made.

I drive five miles to work each day. For Four of those miles i am cussing like a sailor. I suppose i should just sit back and enjoy what's on the radio but i can't. It's not that I hate old people, or stupid people, or old, stupid people I just want things to be right. In almost, if not every state in the union there is a law which prohibits driving in the left lane (with the exceptions of
