Well, I couldnt find the USB interface cable for my camera last night...So no pics of pumpkins today. Im going to see if I can borrow the camera from work, then Ill have picks posted 2morrow.

In good news in the "Dry firing" of the pumpkins last night, the pumpkins had shriveled up just enough to make them look more scarey and intimidating, hee hee hee.

Im sure the kids tonight will enjoy them while I am handing out teh candy.

I have bunches of work today so dont expect to see me lurking around the internet much.


Also we had "high fiber" night last night at my house...And man...That farina is going through me like a bulldozer. I had the worst cramping last night but am confident that after everything passes today Ill be feeling much betterer.

Have a nice day!

I tell you that Ben Franklin might have been on to something, for a slave owner and a philanderer with 100 bastard children, hes not so bad, since I feel like I slept in today...What a GUY!

Lets see, in other news the dungeons and dragons online servers were down all weekend...I could get in if I hammered them enough but then there were all kinds of fruity problems...I hope they get their crap together by tonight when I get off work.

Also, tomorrow is the BIG day....Hee Hee...Ill post some picture of my awesomely carved pumpkin within a pumpkin. Or a Jackolantern in a Jackolantern, if you prefer.

:^)

Hope everyone has a great day!

Today-Im starting a new sunday thing, where I post some verses and you guys tell me what you think about them.

How about this one, Matt 12 38-50

38That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?

39Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,

40He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

41These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.

42Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:

43For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

44Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.

45And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.

46I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

47And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

48He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

49For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.

50And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.

I have to make a million group mailboxes today...And put in a fone.

I am lazy...I dont want to do these things...

But tonight is billie piper night again...So thats all good.

:^)

Have a good weekend everyone and be on the lookout for the sunday post this weekend.

For some reason the runabots dont work correctly via html...they pretty much work in java however...Try out the gossipbot...Yeah this bot was a really bad idea I had one day.

http://www.runabot.com/cgi-bin/webcom/caimjava?botname=thegossipbot


Cool now i dont have to post on friday

I love my wife to death. I mean I really really love her. Ill never be with another woman again. She is my savior and I, her willing servant.

HOWEVER, when she shuts off the alarm clock before I am up and I wake up at 7:50 and I need to be work at 8. Well, I have a tendency to be crabby at her.

I really do love her more than anything tho.

:^)

I have to leave work at <3 PM today...Let me tell you why

Yesterday my wife (Whose work schedule said she DIDNT work yesterday) was doing dishes and she sees her Meth using cousin and his GF pull in behind our house, and pull into our nieghbors garage(Theres plenty of parking on my street)...Then they come to door about 15 minutes later...My wife greets them at the door. They want to use the fone, so they say. Well meanwhile they are saying things like "You have the day off today?" and eyeing the big work schedule calendar my wife has hung up in the diningroom (As of yesterday this has been moved). So we are pretty sure they were there to rob my house. And my wifes schedule said she worked today 3-10. So I have to be home before she leaves to act like a pit bull or something.


I hope we are just paranoid...But man, that garage stuff freaks me out. My wife said she was too afraid to question them when they were there because they might konk her on the head and make off with my TV or something.

Fun fun fun...

I feel much better after a very very very nice and early lunch break.

My day is now going extremely well now.

:^D

Im not feeling so good today.

I ate a pound of chinese food last night and this morning Im all icky in the tummy.

Sorry for not being more inventive in my post...Im running to the bathroom now.

Canopenner: I wish someone would show up here

Canopenner: Hi Can man!

Canopenner: Oh hi! I would ask how you are doing but I already know

Canopenner: are you sure you know how I feel?

Canopenner: I think I have a good idea yes

Canopenner: I think you are lonely

Canopenner: you need to be paying attension

Canopenner: I cant, regretably Im at work

Canopenner: what a co-in-cidence! I am at work too

Canopenner: man you guys are dumb...of course we are all at work

Canopenner: shouldnt we be working then?

Canopenner: All work and no play makes jack a dull boy Cano

Canopenner: Actually I think it pays alright for jack if hes getting like I dunno 120 hours a week in at his job

Canopenner: I doubt his wife would be happy tho

Canopenner: Probably not, but she would have more money

Canopenner: One second guys, fone

Canopenner: That was jeanette gordon, Im back

Canopenner: maybe we are like connected in some strange way

Canopenner: Like maybe we are all the same person?

Canopenner: of course we are

Canopenner: Theres evidence suggesting that we are not the same tho....theres 3 of us in the chat room window

Canopenner: and we are all different colors...thats not the same person...In chat room terms

Canopenner: maybe chat room terms really mean nothing then

Canopenner: canopenner, you gotta have some rules keeping the universe cohesive with itself

Canopenner: yeah otherwise that would be complete chaos

Canopenner: I thought complete chaos was a ride at valley fair?

Canopenner: it is...but it could also be a universe where no fundemental rules exist for reality...of course in such a universe there could never be a person to observe the absence of those rules

Canopenner: Wow...Thats pretty deep canopenner...where do you come up with this stuff?

Canopenner: I would like to know too

Canopenner: I think its mostly from talking to myself

Canopenner: however I usually dont use this forum

Canopenner: I am keeping perfect track!

Canopenner: Dont lie man, we can tell

Canopenner: I cant

Canopenner: well I can, so shut up and go away, both of you

Canopenner: well if thats the way your gonna be

Canopenner: fine, im out

Canopenner: bye then I guess, nice talking to you both. Be good and have a nice day

Man, rough day at the corporation today. No 7 oclock person on the helpdesk, so when I got here at 7:50, I was the first one in...I was greeted by about 500,000,000 voicemails and the phone was lighting up like a christmas tree.

Thats nice, I got to tell alot of people to have a great day and I told them all that I would have one too.

Heh.

I will have a good day! I SWEAR IT! Nothing will bring me down. I am an unstoppable force of good cheer and happiness, helping people who need help and doing it with a smile.

:^)

Now you go have a good day too!

Matt 7 16-20

16Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

17Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

18A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

19Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

20Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Sorry I missed yesterday, I was trying to take it easy with the kids, and I didnt want to get all wrapped up in blogs.

Guess what? No purple poo. So thats that. The human body does indeed filter out purple dye.

In other news im having chili today for lunch. I made a huge batch for the charity chile drive at work.

STAY AWAY FROM ME! this is for your own protection. All I did was look at the chili I made this morning and its already starting.

Also I took the on call fone for the weekend and otherwise I have no plans than to hang out at home, pass gas, and play DDO.

:^)

Everyone have a good Friday and an even better weekend.

:^)

Ugh...Why does my 17 year old kid have to be such a punk...He was all covered up on the couch this morning so I did my standard thing to wake him up. Yell at him. Well then he started yelling back at me. I wanted to knock his block off. But I didnt. What I did do is decide Im not waking him up anymore. Smart mouthed punk, if hes so smart he can keep track of his own wake-up time. GRRRRR. So I expect he will be late for school come next Monday (Kids have tomorrow and Friday off).I bet he will turn it into "ALL MY FAULT" too. Well F him. Hes lucky he didnt come up short a few teeth today.

In other news I drank ALOT of grape pop yesterday. I havent had that stuff in a long time. But the reason I did was because the scientist in me wanted to see if the purple dye in it would effect my stool color. Stay tuned for updates on that.

Have a good day!

Man, I had the hardest time getting out of bed this morning. Im just sooooo groggy.

Have you guys heard about the KEO satellite/Time Capsule, that thing is nuts. Ive been thinking about what to put in my entries there-in. If you goto The Official Site, you can read alittle bit about it and write your 4 pages to be encapsulated until the year 52,007 (Or so). Pretty neat.

Ok Im going back to being tired at work now.

I had a good weekend.

I smiled alot. I took naps. It was good.

In other news Im going to mail out a list of internet acronyms to my coworkers.

I bet they resent me for it. Heh.

Also I am not going to take that job. I feel I have alot of good left to accomplish here in Brainerd. And it would be better for my kids not to yank them out of school mid year. And I dont wanna be rushed into buying a house. And and and a million other things.

GTG ;^)

Its FRIDAY! Still snowing off and on here, not quite as cold tho.

I do not have any real plans for this weekend. Except for to stay up late enough tonight to help Johnny find The Art Bell Show on his new-used AM radio he got from that garage sale the other day (It works!). I told him its probably the only thing a 13 year old boy would find on the AM that he would like and its not on until 11 oclock at night...Too bad he will only be able to listen to it on fridays because the rest of the week he has to goto bed at 10.

Maybe I will do a crapload of laundry and the dishes and all that other stuff I do on the weekends when I have the day off and my wife does not.

Next week I have to start going to some home buying classes to satisfy the bank we are going to be borrowing money from to buy the new house in Pelican. I know I havent got the job yet or anything but I need to be ready to get a place to live in case they do.

Also Ive been finding myself taking more naps than I used to. Thats pretty nice. And although I think I might be wasting time, it sure is pleasurable.

Also a new Doctor Who is on tonight. I might be a giant nerd for watching it but I just cant enough of that Rose Tyler (Billie Piper). Wow she is so dreamy.

And dont worry my wife knows about my preoccupation with her.

:^)

Have a nice weekend everyone.

Well, its snowing here.

:^( and cold and nasty.

Also the people I work for ran the sprinklers last night. The sidewalks here are glare ice, a solid sheet of it.

This sux.

Theres something wrong with me. :^(

Lately at night Ive been having some abdominal pains. When I research it online possible causes are

Ulcer
Irritable bowel syndrome
Excessive gas
a balooning of the arteries leaving my heart
crones disease

Well, I do have ALOT of gas, always have...So today Im counting the number of times I flatulate, as of the writing of this document I have flatulated 10 times, and Ive only been up for 1.5 hours.


The doctors define Excessive Gas as more than 20 episodes of flatulence a day.

Im pretty sure Im going to top that.

I have a physical coming up Im going to ask the doctor about it there.

Hope I dont die.

:^)

Today is Stephen's (15) birthday, We got him Vikings tickets and a VOIP headset. He outta be pretty happy about it. We are having Bacon Cheeseburgers for his birthday dinner.

:^) It will be nice.

In other news I opened my pickles yesterday. They turned out not rotten and quite potent. Im going to slice the biggest one (Quite frankly the biggest pickle Ive ever seen) up for the birthday hamburgers. :^)

But first I have to make it through today.

:^)

Lets see in other news I started watching Dark City with
Moodkiller yesterday, he is suppose to come finnish it with me some night this week. But that movie is soooo cool I dont know if I can wait(Ive seen it before a number of times so Im not waiting in suspence or anything but it is a really good flick). I would highly recommend you all rent it if you havent seen it before.

Have a good day!

I had a very good weekend.

Melissa got a fish, she is very happy about it, its a beta, she named it speedy. As of this morning its still alive.

I fought the urge to open my pickles all weekend. They are still pickling. So thats good. They might make it as long as the recipe calls for.

I had some nice talks with Dustin, since hes 17.5+ I dont get to see him much and I miss and worry about him but he was around a bit this weekend so I made some time to spend with him.

We took the kids to some garage sales, that was nice, Melissa got a choose your own adventure book and Johnny got a battery powered radio that looks older than I am, we have bets going on whether or not it works. Im betting no. But he needs a 9 volt battery to find out and we didnt have any.

Hope everyone has a good Monday.

:^)

I want to share something with you all.

Its some bible verses. Matt 5 21-25

21Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:

22But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

23Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee

24Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

25Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison

In that vein I want to extend my apologies to Raymi, I unjustifiedly said some things about her book and I want to express my regrets for doing that without first reading it. Im sorry I made her angry and its not right that I did that. I hope she has a wonderful day today and forgives me for my transgressions.

In other news I had a crazy dream that I kept 3 pet giant freshwater lobsters, I taught them to fetch, carried them on my back and fed them fish. It was pretty weird.

You all have a nice friday now.

I woke up on the proverbial "wrong side of the bed" this morning.

I was having a nightmare...I had come home from work and all my pumpkins were already carved by someone who wasnt me...Then I went up to my room and it was packed with DIET PEPSI (I hate diet pepsi). There 300+ 12 packs of it were stacked all through my bedroom. Then I picked up the phone (In my dream) and my wife was talking about leaving me...

I was very angry(In my dream).

Then my alarm clock went off and I was relieved that it was just a dream...But I was still very angry. :^( I dont like to be angry.

:^(

Well I think the interview went really well, its always a good sign when the people are laughing and joking with you by the time you leave.

So that went really well, I checked out the town too and it looks like theres alot of houses for sale for SUPER CHEAP, For instance, a 3 bedroom with a den, 2 story, 1 bathroom, 80% finnished basement, construction 1920, hardwood floors, Period woodwork

65000!!!!

I WANT IT!!!!


In other news my wife (Bless her heart and she is so wonderful and I love her more than life itself!) kept me up all night with her coughing, I got maybe 4 hours of sleep in 10 minute intervals.

Ugh. But I love her.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

I have a job interview today, so I took the day off from work.

Im pretty nervous about it.

It looks like a great opportunity tho, because its more money for what looks like less work. And its working for an electrical company, so those guys must be raking in the dough hand over fist. I dont think Id have to ever worry about being layed off or let go because of lack of funds...And its small enough that I dont think Id have to worry about my boss's boss's boss's boss's decisions (Like I do in my present publicly held, gigantic corporation.)

Only downside is if I get the job I will have to move. And Im not too excited about that. But maybe they wont even pick me, theres a couple other hopefuls from what I gather.

Wish me luck.

Every kid in my house except for Dustin (17) is sick and stayed home today. My wife is there until 2 and after that they will have to fend for themselves until I get home(the 14 year old, Stephen is there so Im not so worried.)

Also Im making some mustard chicken tonight.

Because I like mustard.

Happy Monday!

"Who will help me make this Bread?"
Propaghandi

I speak my mind. I question theirs.
It seems to me like no one really cares.
Peripherally blind. intellectually numb.
Ignorance by choice? or just plain fucking dumb?
Youre threatened by my mind. you want everything the same.
But my questions still remain.
You boycott your brain. you answer with fists.
But my questions still persist.
You can rearrange my face but you cant rearrange my mind.
You can beat this shell about me, but you cant touch whats inside.
So now who will help me bake this bread?
Who will be the first to speak and leave complacency for dead?
Ive done all that I can on my own.
But stagnant minds persist to squeeze blood from this stone.
But I wont bleed for you. I have no need for you.
Death will be the day I concede to you.
