Anybody think...

That we should move election day to April 16?

Tonight is my favorite local news night of the year. On the 11:00 news you just know (no matter how many people get shot today) the lead story is going to be a live remote from the main branch of the post office with cars backed up for miles and miles. So "on the scene" reporter chick is going to try an "on the spot" interview with someone in the car line and end up picking some half cocked, teeth missing, cigarette smoking, grammatically challenged 05'r hillbilly. And when she asks the question "why did you wait till the last minute" you are going to get an answer that will make the oratory of Churchill seem like a children's book; something like "Weeellll,,,,heck,,,,I donreally know." Trumpets will play and streamers will fall, and I, satisfied will turn off the TV and go to bed.
It's not supposed to rain tonight, which is too bad, because that always makes "on the scene" chick really irritable.

Today is just some off the wall stuff:

HumpDay

This has got to be the longest week ever, I am convinced it may never end. However I am encouraged because I may have found my dream job.

Like I said, dream.

...

Darwin is on stand-by:

Vacuuming man shoots himself - A St. Cloud man received injuries to his wrist, ear and cheek after a gun he kept under his pillow discharged while he was vacuuming.

Outlaw blows himself up - Albania's most wanted man fought off special police and eluded capture for years only to blow himself up while fishing with dynamite, police and newspapers say.
"Fishing with dynamite" is just awesome!

Man Honored as "Village Idiot" - The competition was fierce and foolish, but a man who accidentally sawed through a live electrical wire and topped that by wrecking his truck only hours after buying it earned the honorary title "Village Idiot."

...

Michael Vick seems to have gotten himself in a bit of a mess. If you go see the Falcons this year remember to take your penicillin.

Whatevha' Bitches!

Ah the weekend. Time to kick back, relax with friends and family, crack the top on a cool one (because a one that is not cool, is hardly a one at all) and enjoy some deliciously smoked meat products. But what's this? You had a bit too much of one or another? Or perhaps your just so comfortable in your surroundings that slipping off into a savory food coma is an all to easy task? Never fear, someone is always around the corner with photography equipment!

"All Wrong" Episode III "Revenge of the Sith Nerds"

Hello All!

This is the third installment of "All Wrong". Sit back, Relax, and enjoy!

1. This one should be titled "All Right!"
2. Can I go back to school? Bring on the short bus...(game)
3. Some Hot Mama's for Cobalt.
4. She can freshen my drink any time! I wonder if she likes big american guys???
5. Animal commandoes are dispatched to stop a diabolical billionaire from taking over the world. Sorry Cobalt. It's another Bruckheimer film (film?).
6. I thought I would post a little animal fun (1) (2) (3) (4) (5)
7. Laces out Dan!

10. And Finally. This chick should be shot. I'm tired of these "baby factories" only caring about padding their welfare checks and not taking care of their children. She should be given a job at WalMart and forced to work 150 hours a week to pay for her child care.

See ya, Bye.
