Grumpy Old Men

You'd think a town would be happy that they had a mayor that wasn't some fat out of shape person... but apparently not.

Seriously people, if what they did in their past/present/future wasn't unlawful, does it really matter? I guess I have no hopes of being in politics with my underwear model photos out there or that time I posed topless in front of my new car. Racy indeed!

Stupidity, the Evil Step-Mother of Invention

Electronic tattoo display runs on blood
I wonder how the NY laws mandating hands free cellphone use will apply? Sounds like a painful undersight in the law.

Massage Robot
Stupid robots stealing all the good jobs!


Man drives stolen car to police station
Not really about inventions, but I can't pass on a good stupid criminal story.

State of the World

Some top news stories from around the world snatched from leading sources...
Be afraid friends... be very afraid.

USA - NY Times: Gray Wolves Off Endangered List
Hey, glad to hear, but is this really front page stuff? How about how my brothers/sisters in arms are doing. The economy. Things that might affect my ability to provide food and shelter for my family.

UK - BBC News: Facebook 'sees decline in users'
Dear God... its the sign of the apocalypse! Even worse, this is spun as sort of a negative with Facebook trying to do damage control. I mean.. what if.. and I know this is crazy... people are actually getting out of their homes and meeting real friends. I should probably just get my affairs in order after making that blasphemes statement. I'm sure a Facebook task force will be dispatched to eliminate me.

So, what's non-newsworthy items are making the top news in your neck of the world?

I Got Crabs for V.D.

Snowshoe crab to be exact. Very tasty!

In other news; last Friday, after a fun filled morning getting another root canal, my daughter and I went to the "Best Guy" dance put on by her girl scout troop. You were suppose to dress up as your favorite TV/Movie star. Since I learned that detail a few minutes before we left, it was too late for me (most dads weren't dressed up anyway [and it was really hot there anyway]). My daughter tossed on her Hanna Montana gear (including the wig she plays with almost everyday and needs to be thrown out at this point).

At the dance there were approximately 200 Hanna Montanas and pretty much the rest were Disney princesses. Funny Stuff

Russian Models For Business of Pleasure


Apparently the place next to our dojang had a special running yesterday on 7 raspy voiced beautiful people.

Googletized

This is a screenshot from Google Analytics showing me the top searches that led people to my blog.

1. Something finally took over the top spot this week from "How to Train a Rabbit". Hope you found the post helpful.

2. This still disturbs me some... you know.. people training rabbits.

3. Another babyboomer/GenX trying to avoid sizzling fat I'm guessing.

4. While I have seen the occasional hot waitress there, I don't think I would be searching them out on the internet. Sorry I couldn't help.

5. This has been on the charts since posting it. Apparently my catch phrase was something more popular.

6. Guess I'm not the only one that can't spell. Unfortunately they don't make a cream for chronic misspelling.

7. Speaking of needing cream... BLEGH! Let's just hope you weren't the one searching for keyword 6 too. Guess that will teach you to whip it out for some beads.

8. Who doesn't like a sadistic workout! Hope you liked it.

9. You'll want to call them. When they tell you that you will have to pay for the tech to come out, tell them the next signal coming from the box will be coming from the nearest landfill.

10. Can't help you with the jingle, but if you eat that burger, your belly will likely start to wiggle and your bowels quiver!

Sweet Irony


I'll bet this Prius owner is wondering about all that global warming stuff she was promised.

A Whole Lotta Beads


Well, since I had to work on Mardi Gras and many of you have never been, I figured we can recreate the experience.

We have a ton of beads, so if you'd like some, just email the address to send them too (along with a picture of you partaking in the traditional flashing of the boobs for said beads) and I'll try to get some to you.

Oh and Scoop, before you do it.. NO!

Happy Mardi Gras

Since I'm working today, I will have to hope my wife gets plenty of good pictures for me to post.

Instead, today you get snapshots from my retirement plans.
Plan 1:

Dead Dog

Dog eat's 2 $900 Superbowl Tickets

Yeah... I would have definitely gone in after the tickets.

Time for Catch-up

As my lovely friend Anne pointed out, I haven't really had any posts of substance lately. True Anne.. so true.

Basically, its been quiet in the humanity realm. Not much to bring up, or I forget before I get in front of a computer. Have faith, tho... there is still plenty of stupidity out there and we will cross paths again for sure.

My recap for January would be:
Mrs SgtRedline got a staph infection. Not just any staph.. apparently she went all out and received the super bug. Thankfully it presented like a normal staph (a boil) and was detected/treated. As if that wasn't enough though, 9 days into taking 2 different antibiotics, she had broke out in a rash which turned out to be a reaction to one. The one being 1 of 2 antibiotics available to treat this superbug. Oh, and now she can say she has a sulfur allergy. Lucky girl!

No worries, she's doing fine despite my jokes about upping her life insurance and her spreading pestilence to everyone.


My (step)mother became an ordained Methodist minister and was appointed to a church in "The-Middle-of-Nowhere", NY. Seriously... if you know where JV lives, you head there.. then further west into deeper sticks territory. Grats to her and God help her congregation.

I'm still fighting with the Feds to get quality information about Healthcare coding and scoring. They finally published some more information, unfortunately their corrections had mistakes...

I know the North-east is getting buried in snow right now, so I just wanted to extend some warm wishes to you all...
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to try and scrape together a 55 story for Wurdi's blog. Won't you join me?
