Good Morning.

There was a UFO outside my house last night, It was like a super bright start that zigged and zagged around the sky while flashing white to blue to red. I watched it for about 45 minutes from about 11:30 until 12:15. It just kept zigging and zagging. I know what an airplane looks like and it definately wasnt that. I know what a sattellite looks like and it definately wasnt that either.

The boys got out a pair of binoculars(I wish my telescope wasnt busted) and it looked pretty much the same through that so whatever it was it was WAY WAY up there. Melissa was throwing a screaming fit about it and I was telling her not to be afraid of space aliens because she was prolly bigger than them.

But I had to goto bed so I didnt get a chance to watch it "leave"

Pretty neat tho.

In other news my feet are full of burrs from the beach yesterday. Ouch. That sucks huh?

Gotta go! Have a great day!

Good Morning.

I was going to talk about some of my ancestry for bit today.

Not the Schultz's, or really anyone from my fathers side(or half of my mothers ancestry for that matter), but The Tomkowski's, who I heard used to have another name before they got here (here being America), Tomgotzchi or something like that. (I really dont know how to spell it)

Anyway Im pretty sure they were some of these people, Evidenced by the fact my grandmother's relatives all look alot like them, including myself.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roma_people

Now is that some interesting stuff or what?

Prolly not huh?

Anyway heres a song, I need to take a shower and clean up some messes I made and goto the beach, and I need to work on a computer Ive had since Thursday. Im so bad about putting stuff off sometimes.

Hi Guys,

Well Im going to be out the door to North Dakota pretty early tomorrow to buy my contraband. My shopping list goes something like this

1 Gross (thats 12 dozen in case your not familiar with this system) Bottle Rockets, preferably whistlers. Just the small ones, giant ones are a rip off.

1 Gross Firecrackers (Ladyfingers are better, blackcats will suffice)

1 Gross M80's, if I can get my hands on them, prolly will have to settle for something else tho as they have been illegal in all 50 states since 1966, guess Im not as "cool" as my dad because he actually knew a guy who sold fireworks out of his garage that he somehow was smuggling, or was buying from someone who was smuggling them, in from china. I can get about any other contraband but there doesnt seem to be enough demand for any of my friends in the black market to find them, get them, or move them. (see what legalization does, with ND just next store it doesnt pay to traffic the 2 fireworks that are illegal there.)

So yeah no reliving the glory days of my youth when my dad would give me a hand full of M80's that for 1 day a year made me the coolest kid on the block. POOPERS! I think if I didnt blow my fingers off when I was 11 I can handle myself now. Sheesh!

The rest of my budget will be blown on gas to get there and as many mortars as I can buy with the money leftover.

Hopefully I dont get popped as thats a $5000 fine. Wish me luck on that [But theres a million people always going between Fargo and Moorehead so I think I should be safe. Plus, Id like to hope most police wont pull me over without probable cause(Chad?), and they would need to search my trunk too so good luck with that holding up in court, I dont think it being the saturday before the forth is enough reason to search me. But since the constitution has been practically thrown out of the window at this point you never know... :^( ]

Also I bought a svengali deck of cards today for 1 dollar(Ive had one before) and Im using it to blow everyone I meets mind, its so much fun. Go out and find one and buy it and it will be the best money you ever spent(or you could make one with 53 decks of cards and an industrial paper cutter or a T-square and a pair of scissors!)

HAHAHAHAHA!!! Fun FUN stuff!

Heres some links because surprisingly I find no one has ever heard of this stuff for the most part.

Svenghali deck video
Wikiped entry

Actually I think the dude in that video is kinda a shitty magician. Way too dry for my tastes-I tell a story about how the deck of cards was given to me by a magical unicorn (named George, who's last name I never caught) then if the people ever want to more closely examine the cards I tell them George said that it was against the rules of the magic and it will break them. Then I do as many tricks(some involving a "magic" dance) as I have time for...Always ending with the one where I can "mysteriously with my awesome powers of magical transmutation" turn every card in the deck into the card they started out the tricks "picking"....

Its priceless to watch someone be amazed and drop their jaw not once, not 5 times, but 20 times as I keep doing more and more "impossible" card tricks with the deck. LOL. One chick today was horrified by her ignorance at how I was doing it. ROFL! I told her it was just stage magic and not to be frightened. But still CLASSIC.

Have a great day!

Consider this your saturday post
Good morning.

First the news then the pictures.

I had a billion people stop by my house yesterday... I burned them cd's, gave away some fish tank stuff I wasnt using. And one of them I dont know who was there before I got home and left me a bucket of giant pond snails...These things are huge, like half the size of my fist. The puffer fish wont them tho, they are too big, She checked one out I dropped in the tank yesterday but she wouldnt even chomp its antennae off.

I dont know that the heck Im gonna do with them. Ive been trying to give them away to all my fish tank friends but so far no takers. Someone said I should try to sell them on ebay, but that just sounds like a dumb idea to me. I might take them into the live fish store and see if they want them, or Ill just dump them into some lake or something. I dont know. I guess I could cook them up for dinner some night, people eat those things right?

Also I am planning to goto North Dakota tomorrow to buy fireworks and smuggle them back. It sure would be nice If I could get my gas money from the company to use on it. Also I got a check from my old Saturday medical delivery job yesterday because it appears they owed me money since march, I didnt even know it, the place is shutting down tho so they had to pay me I guess?

Anyway, here is is a picture of myself that I particularly like.

You guys have a great day and a good weekend if I dont talk to you again over the weekend.

Thursday, June 26, 2008

Well, its funny how life can be sometimes.

I want to publicly apologize to monstergirl/leslie for leaving her nasty comments. Raymi still pisses me off but oh well. You live, you learn.

Ill be the first to admit that sometimes I get a bit carried away when I start steaming and stewing and then I get all mean and self righteous and the result ALWAYS makes me feel bad about my actions. ALWAYS!

Some day maybe Ill learn to control my emotions instead of it being the other way around. However that day wasnt yesterday or the day before that.

Hey maybe its today!

I also know its not friday but Im going to post a picture anyway.

Its me looking not so ugly as I do in some photos. Maybe more so than sometimes. Anyway I think its somehow appropriate...heheh...Anyway Ill still post another picture tomorrow.

Have a great day!

Yeah I know exactly how that shit feels because I have been there with you and leslie and butchie for fucking months.

Im not gonna simmer down. Im gonna keep pouring on the fucking pain as long as I can because you fucks and your Bourgeoisie, better than everyone attitudes have gone too fucking far and fucked with me and my friends too many fucking times.

I see I have won at least temporarily on leslie's blog. Comments disabled and linking to me.

Fucking awesome ROCK ON!

Call me whatever you want, but I am relishing the fact that you are squirming like the little fucking worms you are. Maybe now you will learn not to go around on the internet and fuck with innocent people?

See its not just me anymore. Now that others are seeing me stand up to you assholes they are joining in full force!

Have a great day (NOT!)

Addendum! Raymi responds!

you are out of your mind
im telling you we are ending it and you think you have won and are continuing this ridiculous assault which consists of you and porknbeanz?



Me second reply:

Yeah, Ive been told Im out of my mind before, whoopie fucking shit!

You think you have the option of ending it? You shoulda thought of that shit before you started it.

Ill fucking serve up the same bullshit you assholes hand out as long as I want and guess what you cant stop me! Just like I couldnt stop you and the rest of your "mad crew" when you were doing it to me and that poor isabelle and the rest of your victims.

And Ill look better doing it to. You know why? Cause you fucking deserve it!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

-R
So some people have been calling me stupid, Im a big believer in taking bad stuff that happens to me and deriving strength from it. So I started thinking, why not roll with that punch and start posting some stories of some stupid stuff I have done over the years?

So here we go, stupid thing #1 Canopenner has done (cue flashback music):

I think I was 11, it was the summer of 1987, since we didnt have the Internet back then, I would spend most of my time outside, building dams in a nearby crick, throwing rocks at passing cars from the safety of the woods, or we spent alot of time climbing trees.

There was a landfill about 1/4 of a mile from my house, there were some trees that were right on the edge of it. They were all half dead from being buried in gravel and old refrigerators and the like, one of them had fallen, and it intersected with another tree that was still standing further down the hill. I thought it would be a fun idea to climb from the fallen tree to the one still standing and then climb up to the top of the standing tree and see what I could see from up there.

The climb out the fallen tree went great, I was still pretty level with the very top of the hill the landfill had made, I was starting to make the transition to the new tree...I was thinking that things were going pretty well, I climbed a few more branches up the standing tree. Now I could see that I was about 10 or 15 feet above the top of the landfill, making me maybe 50 feet above the bottom of the landfill. The view was great. But I wanted to go higher. I started climbing when I started to hear a crrrr---aaaack of the branches that were holding me!

I fell.

I remember the world swimming on my way down. Like I was inside a washing machine. I hit a branch here and a branch there. Bam-Boom-Ooof! That hurt! The fall seemed to take about 30 seconds.

When I hit the bottom of the landfill I was flat on my back. All the wind came out of me WOOMP! but the story doesnt end there.

I started rolling down the remainder of the hill. Once again the world whooshed by like I was in a washing machine, I could see some dirt, I could see some branches, I could sure feel the stuff stuck in the landfill while I rolled over it.

Finally I came to a rest.

As I got up I could see there was some guy rushing down the hill from the top of the landfill, he was yelling, "Hey are you ok?!!! That was quite a fall?!! are you ok?!!"

I motioned to him that I couldnt breath, since the fall had clean knocked all of the wind out of me. But otherwise, besides some scratches and bruises I was ok. Not bad since I had fallen about 50 feet out of a tree and then rolled down a hill at high speed another 30 feet or so. He helped me up the hill where my sister was waiting on my bicycle with my mother, both of whom were crying hysterically. I learned later from my friends who were there that my sister had taken my bike from the top of the hill and said "Well thats it, Robert is dead, guess this bike is mine now, I gotta go tell my mom."

Looking back on it, it was a pretty dumb thing to do. But hey, everyone does dumb stuff sometimes. Maybe next week Ill tell you guys a story about how I got cyanide poisoning one time in another episode of stupidity.

Have a great day!

Tuesday, June 24, 2008

Time for a Tuesday BONUS POST! Can you feel the excitement mounting! I know I can!

I am not feeling so well today, ugh...Just sorta achey with a runny nose and a sore throat. Hopefully it passes because I dont want to be sick. I even went to bed last night at like 10:30.

But dont worry that didnt stop me from coming to work.

And it didnt stop me from blogging.

I really dont remember the last time I was sick. I mean sometimes I feel like crap but this is like on a whole new level.

And my eyeballs burn.

Also it sounds like Ill be driving out to aitkin.

Which reminds me the company I work for is like into me for 110 bucks of gas money for trips Ive made here and there and the other place. I tell you what I dont really have the money to drive to aitkin (about 45 or 50 miles one way) and back so I hope they are forking over some money today so I dont have to throw a fit and scream and cry and roll around on the floor like a baby.

Hope everyone has a good day tho!

PS. the pufferfish is doing great, she is still kinda fat and I am starting to run out of snails again so Ill need to make a trip to the crow wing river to get some more. She also has started doing some crazy bumblebee dance everytime she sees me at the tank.

Monday, June 23, 2008

As I was talking about yesterday Melissa got a bunch of pokemon trading card game cards from my friends garage sale.

Well yesterday I was out on the porch and Melissa comes out:

Me: HI! having fun with those pokemon?
Melissa: Yeah! Wanna see my favorite one?!!!
Me: Sure!
Melissa: This one, and this one, and this one, and this one...
Me: Wait a minute! your favorite one is four?
Melissa: Yep!
Me: HMMMMMM interesting....
Melissa: What?
Me: I can see you inherited your mothers impeccable sense of logic thats all.

Other than that I dont have much to report except I finally got around to watching the incredible hulk movie. It was decent, much better than that last pile of steaming crap they put out about the incredible hulk. And I think it was leading into an Avengers movie, with the tony stark crap at the end.

Um...I need to do some fish water changes tonight also.

Im getting a call about something I gotta go take care of right away. Ill bbl. Have a great day!

Sunday, June 22, 2008

Hello again,

Melissa and I are going back to my friend's garage sale this morning because he told her she could have something for free from there, and shes been bugging me about it ever since then.

Also the world is so amazing sometimes. I never thought a MC Chris song could make me cry-

- never_give_up

But really you guys should go out and buy the album, or download it or whatever...

Oh and I know have been here and there lately spouting my religious beliefs, Let me just spout some more here for a minute:

I never goto church, I think churches are bad, Jesus wasnt too happy with them either. And Im his disciple and not any church's. I think for the most part they come between people and God, becoming some kind of "club", and they divide the masses instead of uniting them(which I think is what God wants from his church, and those here on earth fail miserably at that). So if you think Im out trying to recruit people I am not, Im not looking for any power or wealth or security or reassurance from anyone, Im just trying to testify for my Lord(and good buddy) Jesus.

Matt 5:13-5:16

13 “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

14 “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

Maybe Im getting alittle defensive.

Saturday, June 21, 2008

Hey there people, Ill be up and out delivering food to the needy 2morrow (no joke), so I wanted to get the morning blog post out of my system tonight.

I made up with the wifey poo and now everything seems pretty hunky dorey until the next paradoxical episode where she will alternatingly tell me she feels neglected and suffocated. Women I tell you. Its frustrating stuff. Par for the course tho. I shouldnt complain one guy I heard about tonight had his wife leave him for some 19 year old punk ass kid. Then his wife showed up at some party with her "date" and her kids and their friends were there.

Ouch. poor kid.

However this wasnt the worst story I heard all week...

I went out to the roto plant (in the rebuilt "haunted" Riverton high school) and heard about this employee they had to send home because the guy was driving down the highway between there and brainerd, saw a skunk in the road, swerved to avoid it and WHAM! it sprayed him in the face through his open drivers side window.

Ouch. poor guy.

Seems like my worst problem is failing to avoid the temptation of seeing what smack is being spoken on the trolls "blogs". So compared to the poor people above I guess Im doing pretty well (as long as my "brain tumor" stays in check)

Oh anyway heres a link to a song. Night night.

older_crowd

Wow..and I actually had a few drinks tonight. Not again until new years prolly. TY

Friday, June 20, 2008

I looked at ALOT of pictures for todays post, I passed up one of a butterfly, one of a skunk run over and painted on by MNDOT, I passed up quite a few, but then I decided I liked this one of my wife putting Melissas hair in curlers for her spring concert that was in may.

I think its adorable.

ImageHost.org


I didnt get too far on my kite project because my friend Gregg called and needed some help from me emptying his one fishtank of fish, he had about 45 fish in there that are now residing in a Styrofoam container until he gets a new tank (The tank they were in belonged to another friend of ours named Brett and he needed it back for his own fish).

I also cleaned Gregg out of snails, prolly about 300 ramshorns.

In other news my wife kinda made me mad yesterday because I said ANOTHER friend of mine Devan had a geiger counter at his garage sale that I wanted to buy and she immediately started acting all crabby about how I didnt need a geiger counter. Well guess what I know I dont NEED it I just want to play with it. But I guess 30 dollars in late movie fees and tubs of ice cream are just WAYYYYYYY more important because she spends money on those all the time (I cant stand most movies or ice cream) and I never complain not once about it. So I went to bed kinda mad, also it appears irrational anger is also a sign of a brain tumor. (But at least not diabetes)

Ugh, Im still kinda mad about it.

Hope everyone has a good weekend and a great day!

Thursday, June 19, 2008

Good Morning,

Tonight I think Ill start a kite rebuild/refurbish project that Ive been wanting to start on for awhile. You know the story, old kite, stuck in a tree for 5 years, falls out, wings are shot, frame is alittle beat, Im gonna fix it. Should take a few hours. We will see how it goes, maybe Ill take some before and after pictures. Should be fun.

Also one of my friends stopped over last night with some of his homegrown catnip for my kitty. I tell you the stuff hes got works so much better than the store bought variety. The cat was on him the second he walked through the door, following him around and meowing until he gave her a handful, then she proceeded to roll around in it on the ground and bash her head into every available object while going crazy for the next 40 minutes. It was pretty hilarious. The kids and I laughed.

Also the guy who lives in my old house heard I had a bunch of magic cards and came over to try and buy them off me. Of course I dont want to sell my magic cards because I look forward to playing magic someday when Im in the old folks home. BUT he seemed pretty nice and he hung out and played a couple or 6 games with me. So thats nice. I like making new friends.

anyway, I hope everyone has a great day.

Tuesday, June 17, 2008

Ok, I give up, Ill unban monstergirl's and butchie's umpteen million IP addresses, butchie is right, if I keep banning them then Ill run out of bans before they will run out of proxies. So the only option I would be left with is comment moderation. I hate comment moderation. So thats really no option at all.

Its not that my feelings really get hurt when they call me stupid. In the grand scheme of things both they and I are a bunch of nobodys making noise on the internet. WHOOPEE DO FOR US!

Ill also put back the letter box at the bottom of the page, If it brings them joy to write whatever down there, who am I to ruin their fun? I might find it annoying that its mean spirited fun, but who the hell am I to judge?

Seriously tho I didnt leave any of the anon comments at
Monstergirls blog(or anywhere else for that matter), thats just not something I do...its not like Im scared of these people or anything, sometimes they just put the head on my cheese. I do wonder what motivates them to make people hate them? I guess for all of our being the same species we are just made out of completely different stuff and Ill never understand why they do the things they do, they will prolly say thats cause Im stupid, but I know its just cause I dont want anyone to hate me, so the things they do are completely alien to me.

But yeah, the utter pointlessness of the entire situation has finally dawned on me.

Let them say what they will, link to my youtube videos and take pictures of my alphabet board. Whatever. They seem more intensely interested in my blog than most of the people I like, and I guess...Well, I should be flattered.

heheh I hope I can continue that attitude for the next few days while I sustain whatever barrage of nastyness they have in store for me.

One thing about that God they keep making fun of me for worshipping is he explicity tells me that I am no better than them. As much as I might try to be curteous, nice, and helpful, I still have my moments of meanness, spite and wickedness. I wish pain and uglyness on them because I judge them for their meanness, meanwhile ignoring my own. Its all quite hypocritical and I am sorry for it. But hey, Im only human, and so are they, we are all bound for the grave, maybe Ill even see them there! Stranger things have happened right?

have a great night!

PS gimme a few minutes to unban everyone and put the letter board back up. And consider yourselves winners, because it doesnt really matter in the grand scheme of things anyway and you know it.
Good Morning Again!

I had another strange dream last night, this time, my bed was full of grasshoppers! So I ended up jumping out of bed and screaming "AHHHHH GRASSHOPPERS!" My wife was like, "What the hell are you jumping out of bed and screaming for?!" and I was like "Its full of grasshoppers! Thousands of them!" then she just laughed and rolled over and went back to sleep.

Sometimes I tell you my subconscious is a mystery to me. (Is that rhetorical statement?)

Moving on...

Those stupid trolls are back, making disparaging and mean comments. Havent these people heard of the golden rule? I suspect they have but they have no interest in following it, I figure because they are morally bereft. They must not have received enough love from mothers or something. UGH. Its annoying. One of them apparently made the letter box at the bottom of my blog say some pretty rude things about me and male genitalia a few weeks ago (I remember seeing it down there and tearing it apart) and then you know what the idiot does? He takes a picture of it on his cell phone. LOL what an idiot, apparently for all his ego maniacal superiorness he has never heard of the print screen key. So Butchie if your out there, next time you might want to use the print screen key and save whats called a screen capture to a ms paint file where you can cut out the portion that you want. It would prolly be alittle less labor intensive than moving crappy pictures of interlaced lines from your cell phone to your computer for posting to your blog. They also have some scuttle on their blog about impersonating me, so if you get comments or something that dont sound like me, then chances are that they are not me.

I pray to God for these peoples destruction because they just are making the world a worse place for the rest of us God fearing, good hearted folks. At the least I wish God put some pain into their hearts and teach them that meanness and cruelty are bad and that life is bad enough without their BS making things worse.

But enough about that.

Last night I noticed that I had lost my collection of Less than Jake, so I had to download the discography, Also I went to walmart to try and buy some yoyo strings, but they didnt have any(How stupid huh?) so I had to buy my 8,000,051st yoyo. Im going to call around today and see if I cant find some place that stocks them.

Wow that was a long post, and my coffee is calling me.

Everyone have a great day!

Monday, June 16, 2008

Good morning everyone, I am in a better mood today! YAY!

But I did have weirdo dreams that I had some funky weird disease last night. I was quarantined in a hospital and alot of my family and friends came to visit me through a plastic curtain. So i didnt get good sleep last night.

In other news I am getting SLAMMED with stuff this morning.

so I really cant stay and chat about what a good fathers day I had, how I bar-b-q'ed some chicken legs, and my wife made a bunch of pasta and potato salads. How I finally got that MMO to work, or how I had quite an intimate night with my wife :^)

UGH! I cant do that because my fone is ringing off the hook.

Have a great day!

Sunday, June 15, 2008

RANT

First off, I have heartburn. Prolly because I had nachos for dinner. :^( So thats making me alittle crabby. Also my wife is being all clingy. She wants me to sit around and stare at her. Well Im sorry, but that is just too boring for me to do. Especially with heartburn. AND on a saturday night to boot! I just wont have it. I can stand about 1 hour of cuddly poo kissy face, after that you either better be putting out or letting me go. IT IS THAT SIMPLE! I love you honey but thats the way it works.

Then I tried to download some dumb ijji game to play with my 15 year old kid. Its a MMO that he is playing all the time, and it looks pretty in depth and maybe even might be fun. BUT THE STUPID PATCHER FOR IT IS A PIECE OF JUNK! UGH! so I end up stopping and restarting the patcher a million times and its still not working! (do I have enough exclamation points in this post yet?!?!?!?!)

Then I goto an indian bloggers site that I commented at earlier, and I see that my comment I left about MP3 players is "awaiting moderation", meanwhile 2 other people who commented after me have theirs already posted. So like I fool I take it all personally (anyone who knows me in real life will tell you I take everything too personally), and ask if he is discriminating against me because I posted links to the products I use or if its because Im not indian (half joking about the second part) then I tell him bah humbug, then I notice that my comments without the links are automatically put through. !!! STUPID AUTOMATION TO STOP SPAMMERS AT BLOGS!

OOOOOOO I hate that crap! you know how many actual spam comments I have had at my blog since 2003? NONE! 0! Zilch! Nada! NOT A SINGLE ONE!

Why do people insist on using anti robot measures on things that dont even get spammed by robots? AT LEAST F'N WARN ME, "hey if you put links in your comments its not going to post and its going to go into a black hole for at least 12 hours and if you see other comments that posted after yours dont take it personally, its just because I think its better to inconvenience some users than maybe delete the 1 or 2 comments from robot spammers I might get in the next ten years...", And I hate that type "AY3TZ" crap even slighty less so, so if you are using that stuff turn it off right now, its completely annoying(and pointless!Dont flatter yourself, no self respecting spammer cares about the 20 people a day maximum you get in your comments, they have much bigger fish to fry, like DUH!!!)!

Ill tell you what, I liked the guys post, found it interesting and thought I left what was an appropriate comment, BUT ILL NEVER GO BACK THERE AGAIN, due to the over administration of his blog, it just plain old takes all the fun out of it.

And another thing: dear blogger spellchecker, "patcher", "slightly" and "spammer" ARE THE CORRECT SPELLING OF THOSE WORDS!

/F'N rant

I try not get involved in internet memes BUT, I figured what the heck Ill do one when Sakhi tagged me.

One religious work from a non-familiar tradition you’ll read:
I try and read alot of Jewish stuff. Since its the root of Christianity I try and read as much stuff as is possible to get a better feel for what Christianity should be like.

One music video–that you like–from your “least likely to listen to’ genre:

Harry Chapin - Taxi http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5dwksSbD34"


A book from a genre you almost never read, that you have read, or you will read (promise!):

I dont readmany books these days because of the internet.

BUT Flatand http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flatland

Somewhere you’d never thought to go on holiday/vacation, and why it might be fun to go there?

On a cruise, that sounds scarey because of my lack of trust in human creations, but Im sure my wife will make me someday.

A specific food you’ve never tried, but will because of this meme, honest!:

Ill try any food anytime, except brains and tongue.…

A sport or game you really hate or haven’t tried yet but are willing to give one more go:

Race car driving

A style of dance you probably won’t try (we won’t make you promise on this one):

I cant dance.

A career job you don’t feel you’re suited for, and why:

A novelist, I have a poor imagination

An item that’s “thinking out of the box’ for this meme that hadn’t been included:

Um...I dont believe in bigfoot? Um...

Is there one thing in life you wanted to do, and will do because of this meme, what will it be?

I really want to eat a pizza with EVERYTHING, but I can never find a place that serves them with enough EVERYTHING to satisfy me.

Now that its finally getting warm here I cant wait to go tubing. Its so nice and relaxing. I got a nice spot that I float down where some bald eagles nest and the wildlife is very pristine, its actually the same river I get most of the snails out of for my pufferfish. But yeah about another month and it will probably be warm enough for that.

In other news Im having a "fight" with one of the users that I support about some spyware that she really loves having on her machine(smileycentral) and I took it off her machine because she was having some issues and I wanted to clean up her machine to see if the problems went away, but now she says I am "picking on her", and shes not going to tell me about her problems anymore and bla bla bla...

It kinda hurts my feelings. I mean I try and help people and they just spit in my face.

UGH

Anyway I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Thursday, June 12, 2008

Did I ever have a crazy dream last night:

I was an illegal mexican immigrant, who lived in a mostly deserted town with alot of haunted houses in it. This married american couple came to town wanting to tour the haunted houses and maybe see some ghosts. I said I would be their guide, and I started showing them all the strange happenings that went on in these haunted houses, well eventually the townspeople got mad at us for breaking into all these old abandoned houses and stirring up the ghosts that "lived" therein. So they were coming to the house we were currently in, with torches and pichforks and the like. At which point I told the couple that they were on their own and bailed out of the back door of the place that we were at. I never saw that couple again. BUT the villagers did catch up with me at the local cantina and they were very upset with me, so to teach me never to do that sort of thing again they cut off my pinky finger.

The end.

What the hell is that all about?

In other news my pufferfish still isnt eating out of my hand. And I am leaving work today at 1:30 for a "doctors appointment"

Have a great day!

Ugh, my cell batteries are dead, I need to get that junk plugged in, also Im drinking coffee. Im sure Ill be wizzing around the office in about 20 minutes. There is something to be said for black coffee when you dont want to drink pop because it is so fattening, it does the job, tastes like crap, but does the job. Probably better than pop too. But yeah, tastes like total crap.

I had a bout of pretty bad nightmares last night, about my daughter and some friend of her(beats me what one) becoming lesbians, and I had to notify the other girls mother, who didnt seem to think it was a big deal. Then I was mad in my dream and all the candlesticks that we have lying around started melting and It was like when I get mad bad things happen, but I couldnt stop being mad, so bad things kept happening.

Ugh, I woke up screaming, And proceeded to wander around the house for about 20 minutes before I went back to bed. So that kinda ruined my nights sleep. Porky if youre keeping track that was about 3:05 my time.

Also I started trying to get the puffer fish to eat out of my hand. Normally he just buzzes around the tank when I got my hands in there doing stuff, he doesnt seem scared of me. I guess it is a different story tho when I am trying to shove a snail in his face, his zipped away from my hand every time. I figure that after a few days of me chasing him around with snails maybe he will stop being scared of me. After all he is the smartest fish I ever had.

Also Im pretty sure he is a girl. So maybe I should stop using masculine pronouns for him.

My puffer fish is getting FAT. I have been trying to cut down on the amount of snails I give him. And he is mad at me about it. Whenever I am at the tank he just begs and begs like a dog at the dinner table. I did notice there were some baby guppies in there so Im sure he will munch those.

Also my eye is feeling better but is still alittle blurry. And I slept so well last night, no crazy dreams, no nightmares, just sleep. Ahhhhhh. So refreshing.

Also I cant wait to get my hands on the new incredible hulk movie, hopefully they dont trash the story line like they did with the last one. I guess its a complete rewrite, so thats good. Because the last movie was such a deviation from the comic book that it made me physically ill (Not really, but it was stupid).

Also I think I am deriving a strong hatred for reality television shows about celebrities. For instance, Denise Richards, those retarded playboy bunnies, the 2 corys, ugh...stupid, who cares about that crap.

Not me.

Anyway, you guys have a great day!

You guys might know the car I drive around is sorta a piece of junk. Its missing aquarter panel and has some homemade light job where the ones that used to be there were knocked off by my wife hitting a deer.

It also has a rattley muffler.

So thats the lead up, heres the story.

There was this old lady (I say old I mean 45-50) who was coming out of her car when I stopping at the temp agency to get more timesheets and she says to me,

"Looks like your car is falling apart."

I turned back to her and said,

"yeah kinda like your face!" and walked away.

If I wasnt tired and crabby it prolly wouldnt have gone that way. But what can I say, dont make rude comments to people on the street you dont know because you might be surprised at how they respond.
I gotta make this quick

12:00 AM goto bed
3:58 AM WIFE PUNCHES ME IN THE RIGHT EYE IN HER SLEEP
4:30 AM take shower and shave, totally pissed off cant go back to sleep.
5:30 AM wake up 16 year old kid for driving school at 7, go back to sleep
7:20 AM get up again and goto work.

This sucks.

I am so tired and crabby.

UGHGUHGUHGUHG

ANyway you guys have a good day!

The city of Brainerd held a street festival tonight(sat night).

I didnt go but could hear the crowd and music from my back porch.

The band was highly annoying, this is their set as far as I could tell from when I was out smoking(Im sure I, thankfully, missed quite a few songs)

-Strait Up (who would cover Paula Abdul? YUCK!)
-Girl You Know its True (Milli Vanilli even yuckier!)
-Its Tricky (Ok I wont say anything disparaging about RunDMC, but still, theres much better music out there to cover)
-Walk like an Egyptian (thanks, but no thanks)
And I kid you not they ended their set with the cheers theme song. Their mothers must be so proud.

So once it ended I noticed there were like a thousand sirens, I assume the city of Brainerd police department pulled over a thousand drunks. Because seriously who else would be standing around in the streets listening to such a shitty cover band?

"Thanks for coming to our summer fest, see you in court"

All in all a very depressing scene that Im glad I didnt live any nearer to.

I would like a non american interpretation and review of this song.

Beth, Reema, Porky please chime in.

If you are an american person please feel free to chime in as well

As per Reema's request here is a picture of my cat Matsushita Kotobuki (her name is the Japanese name for Panasonic) but I call her Schmoopie for short, because she is such a little lover, she loves to be petted but never held. And she is very smart and can work a doorknob and sometimes she flushes the toilet for fun.

I love my cat very much and I cant imagine life without her following me around begging to be petted. She will say "Meow" and I will say "Meow meow meow, meow meow" back at her as she runs along beside me more like a dog than a cat, I reward this behavior by occasionally petting her when she is on the footstoll or the banister or the steps almost right under my feet.

In other news, 16 crayfish came out of my fishtank, it took me about 3 hours to get the rocks out, scoop the little buggers out and get everything put back. I put it all back in a new configuration so I could see all the hidey holes and I must say I think I got more nooks and crannies now than I had before, I also split alittle chunk off of my clump of lakeweed so Im growing a new clump off in the one corner above the "sand bar" that I have in there.

Anyway I hope everyone has a good day and a great weekend.

Thursday, June 05, 2008

Well, I cant wait until the weekend. Im going to take all the plants and rocks out of my fishtanks tonight when I get off work. Ill make an extremely easy dinner or even make the kids do it and then start hauling stuff out.

If your wondering why I cant wait its not because Im really excited to do this project, one of my cardinal rasoboras was attacked sometime night before last by those stinking no good crayfish. GRRR Im going to smash those little punks with a hammer Im so mad about it.

So yeah thats going to be a big bunch of heavy and hard work just to catch them...But once I have everything out they wont have any place left to hide.

In other news I finished watching the new Indiana Jones move and I really like it. Couldnt fault it with anything except maybe being alittle bit too predictable and the story moving along like the one in Raiders. But all in all I thought it was better than Crusade and Temple.

And finally Im really not feeling so hot today, I think I might be coming down with something. Either that or I ate too many tacos last night. Tacos are a big weakness of mine I guess, esp. when I load them down with jalepenos and chiles. YUM...but OoOoO my tummy hurts.

Hello everyone, as I mentioned yesterday I got my hands on some fancy schmancy astrology software. A friend of mine's mom is the local gypsy lasy/fortune teller and she is looking at upgrading her computer which would entail moving to some software that runs on a newer operating system than windows98. I dont really buy into astrology but the "chart I cast" for myself using birthdate, birthtime, and location of birth seemed pretty accurate. Maybe its just because the psychology of the stuff is worked to make it seem like its accurate for you no matter what but I was pleasantly surprised.

Also I have a little patch of Eczema coming out on my left ear and its really bothering me, I medicated it with the cordaid but it still seems to be persisting. I remember when I was a kid my father would get it in his ears and always be complaining about it. I guess I am alittle like him after all.

Also for all you pufferfish lovers out there I have fed him about 300 small snails so far this week! That little glutton just eats them all up and begs for more, Im going to have to go out and get more before the weekend (Which is usually when I go out and scoop him some new food items from the local waterways) but I dont think I have much choice as he seems to be hungrier than normal this week.

and finally I started watching the next season of doctor who last night, I like the new companion Donna, not as much as liked Rose Tyler (for obvious reasons) but I think its kinda funny how she is always yelling and smacking the doctor around, much better than the blahness of Martha Jones.

Alright, well I seem to be getting hammered with HELP! calls this morning so I better scurry off and save the world from utter destruction at the hands of non working computers.

You guys have a great day!

Good, this morning blogger is working, haloscan is working, fish cam is still down, and I am still alive. I dunno how good the last one really is but we will just say its good.

Last night I made some buttermilk pancakes from scratch for dinner and they were to die for. I tell you Ill never buy Bisquick again...I never realized how worthless that crap was until I started making pancakes from scratch...

1 cup flour,
1 Tbsp sugar
1 egg
2 Tbsp butter (melted)
1 cup buttermilk (more or less depending on thickness)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 Tbsp vanilla
Cinnamon to taste

Im sure you could use regular milk but I dont think it tastes as good.

Along side of that some sausages and fruit and you have a yummy meal. Tho I warn you if you need ALOT of pancakes at least double or triple the recipe, I doubled it last night and ended up with about 16. enough to feed me and 3 hungry teenage boys.

In other news Turok is pretty awesome. Graphics are A+, game physics are A+, so far story is A. It was a nice way to whittle away 3 hours last night.

Also I am halfway through the new Indiana Jones movie and so far so good, other than the fact Indy is really old and the younger dude in the movie is obviously his son (Not revealed yet up to the halfway point, but completely obvious) and also that the way the story "moves" is similar to the Raiders of the lost ark, Its really good.

Go out and see it if you have the money, or torrent it if you have the technical knowhow.

Anyway, have a wonderful day. I have alot of stuff scheduled this morning so I dont know how much Ill be checking in. Tootloo!

Monday, June 02, 2008

Wow, first over the weekend haloscan barfed all over itself and didnt work. Then this morning blogger is throwing me internal server error 500. What a bunch of junk! Also I have the fishcam down currently because it is wrecking my torrents bandwidth(turok).

Thankfully the 500's seem to have gone away.

I had a pretty good weekend, found about a million little pond snails for the pufferfish to eat, and some fish larvae also...Fish larvae are weird looking little guys, like 2 eyes on a string...I scooped them right out of the mississippi, heh...Catch me if you can department of natural resources.

Then yesterday I went to a bar-b-q at my wifes best friends house. It was nice, even tho her husband who I usually hang around with was not there. He had to work.

In other good news Dustin(19) our kid who is moved out of the house was home this weekend so we got to talk alittle and I was the reciepiant of a few hugs...Good good..No complaints here.

And also over the weekend I discovered something called "UNIT PRICE" at the grocery store, wow, is that ever handy. I spent hours and hours staring at unit prices to find the best deals. So basically I brought home a truckload of groceries for 35 bucks. Score! Cant go wrong there. This is going to revolutionalize the way grocery shopping is done around my house! I love it, its almost like a video game. I was so good at it that chicks at the grocery store were coming on to me about it. Which I thought was kinda weird but hey it did give me a nice ego boost.

And then the only bad thing that happened all weekend was I found that at least 2 of the baby crawfish(or crawdads if you prefer) have survived to get to a size big enough to worry me. I think Ill have to clean my tank out of all rocks and plants this weekend to get them out before they start eating my fish and plants. They gotta go.

I guess Ill boil them up and eat them, thus gaining their power.

Have a great day! And sorry for the exceedingly long post that I hopefully dont lose when I click publish because blogger is biting it.
