He did it. He actually pulled it off.
I have a 210 gallon Oceanic aquarium, complete with stand, under-gravel filter, 2 power heads, cowling & lights, sitting in my office. (I call it my office, most people would refer to the area as the formal living room & dining room.) This thing is 6 1/2 ft [...]

“Roofitis”
Posted in General, tagged Comedy, con men, German Shepherds on October 31, 2007 | 3 Comments »
This is a ‘disease’ that men with a pick-up & a ladder try to spread throughout neighborhoods. They come on all suave, trying to sound & look intelligent, while looking at the prey’s roof, from the ground.
When Loki sounded off, & was jumping at the door, I knew that someone had come up the walk. I [...]

It’s almost funny.
So, George, let’s talk

If anyone were to get the chance to catch George in an off moment, when he couldn’t lie, avoid, or wriggle out of answers, these are questions I would like answers for:
Did you keep Scooter Libby out of jail to keep him from spilling the beans about Valerie Plame Wilson? I bet he could answer [...]
Netiquette?

There such thing as etiquette on the internet? I’ve found out this morning there is.
Virtual sex. (I read about it, but I don’t think I want to see it.) Suicide of virtual people, & their accounts. Then there’s a place called “my, death, space,com.” (I butchered it intentionally, I didn’t want to accidentally create a live [...]

I’m too tired to start a new week.
Yesterday, I had to contend with Chris about the house. Some days he can be around & not trample my last nerve. Yesterday wasn’t one of them. Every time I turned around, he was into, or doing, something he shouldn’t have.
Before I went upstairs to get my shower, I [...]

Halloween is upon us, & “Mr. Ghost” has put in his appearance. We have a lot of kids in our neighborhood, & Mr. Ghost is an annual tradition. After dark, Mr. Ghost will visit you & leave goodies at your door. The only ‘requirement’ is that you reciprocate, by leaving a treat at a house [...]
Can you help?

aspca.org (Thank you, Frank!)
We can all help.
I know, people will say that I need to be more concerned about people, not animals. I look at it like this: Although not true all the time, most of the time people get what they give. Bring their situations on themselves. The charity that I give to goes [...]
Censorship, in reverse

We practice censorship here, only in reverse.
If a movie trailer is on TV & it looks interesting, I ask Joe if it’s “a movie I would like”. Then I get the answer. Mostly that answer comes back, “it ain’t Disney, Ma”. Or, he’ll tell me what I would find objectionable about it, then I can [...]
In the news

I have the 11:00 AM news on, & again, I shouldn’t have.
The Rockies, who are presently down the 1st game, are coming back home tomorrow to play at Coors Field. The news people are talking to the food vendors about what’ll be served during the game. One of the things they’re talking about is Rocky Mountain Oysters. [...]
