I have brilliant insights into life, love and the cosmos as I go about my daily chaos, but unless I scratch some cryptic, no not cryptic, very obvious message to myself I forget what it was that I was going to dazzle you all with and have a zilch memory for blogging time. No death defying stunts...
Let's just hope that this gentleman's wife agrees with his sentiments or.....he won't be getting any satisfaction, either, for awhile!
I had a near, near death experience this morning driving to work. A semi trailer truck loaded with a small earth mover and other construction equipment entered the round about just ahead of me and started to turn right up the hill, the same way I was going. I heard the truck make an odd noise and so...
In the top instance, no. However, below? Yes! I need ya'lls opinions.
In the 1970s, a prophet of soul music, Curtis Mayfield chronicled the Black experience in urban America. His songs are revolutionary, filled with hope, unity, and togetherness. One song titled âWe People Who Are Darker Than Blueâ addresses the fact that regardless of our skin tones, all...
In an effort to bolster the offense, the Yankees signed Richie Sexson today for the pro-rated minimum salary of $390,000. While Sexson was only hitting .218 for the last-place Mariners, he did have a .344 clip against lefties. In these instances, he should serve as a better option than Wilson...
Dayn Perry of foxsports.com listed his top 10 questions for the second half. Here they are, with my own predictions below them: 1) Will Barry Bonds find a new home? No. 2) Do the South Siders have what it takes? The White Sox have had a great start, but the Tigers have been playing well since their...
Why You're Better Off Avoiding the iPhone If you're a free software lover who's concerned about your privacy and the limitations of DRM, you don't want an iPhone. Amidst Apple's iPhone advertising blitz helped along by positively bubbly media coverage, the Free Software Foundation calls out the dark...
Rainy, showery, I felt damp all day. I like the rain. I wanted to go home and nestle into my bed and maybe after I had slept 12 years I might have read a book or 3, while small servants I don’t possess brought me tea and cake. I was trapped, damp and mouldy in the Basement of Discontent though,...
The High Court overturned some of the New South Wales government’s legislation regarding annoying and harassing the World Youth Day pilgrims. Now, one can annoy, but not harass. Mr FD said that the High Court is enshrining my approach to marriage as civil law. Annoy but do not harass! I thought I...
Where are my 15 minutes of fame? Nothing in my life, so far, could be considered 15 minutes of fame, so I would like mine, soon. It had better not be related to pain, suffering or my demise though, or I will be really annoyed. No headlines that read “Postmaternal woman impaled on Parliament House...
My father once said, "I have nothing against humanity, it's people I can't stand." I'm sure he got that from someone else, but it came to mind as I was writing this post. ***(WARNING: POTENTIAL WALL-E SPOILERS)*** I recently went to the theatre to go see Disney/Pixar's Wall-E and fell in love with...
With another poor performance by the offense, the Yankees lost tonight's game 5-0. In their last 13 games, they have scored more than five runs just once and two runs or fewer in eight. What doesn't make sense is that on July 2nd, the Yankees scored six runs off three different pitchers in the same...
After emerging from a closed door meeting yesterday, Hal Steinbrenner had several words about the state of the team. He cited injuries and the lack of production from their younger players were the reason for their early season struggles. "The young pitchers at the beginning of the year," he said,...
Isn’t it funny how some people can tell you that you laugh like a hyena and that they would rather be friends with Charles Manson than break bread with you, and you take not the slightest bit of offence. On the other hand, some people cannot drop so much as an eyelash in your direction and you...
So, I’ve been listening to Coldplay’s new album Viva La Vida, and it's ok. To me, it sounds good, but the lyrics banal at best. I think what gets me is that Coldplay sounds like they’re trying to be really deep – and they’re just not. There was a piece in Time a few weeks ago, where it...
