Everyone is all hung up on the smoking ban. If you light up you’re a criminal. Outside to the cold howling wind and rain. It used to be so different.
Of course then again you could wear fur too without shame.
Did you see the way their 2 clouds of smoke collide together in the last scene. Priceless…..ahhh romance.
Oh, I’m so happy. To be back on track. The holidays can really throw you off. Seems like, as soon as the eggnog wears off it’s time for more partying. Won’t be much party tonight even if it is new year’s eve. I have $10. I can buy 10 natural lights at $1 ea. Or I can get 1 mixed drink and 4 $1 natural lights. Or I can get 5 $2 beers of my choice. Christmas has sucked me dry. Not that it was bad this year, but I do feel that most of the gifts I gave family members were unsatisfactory (too small, too big or what have you). The niece enjoyed her gifts it seems, of course then again she is only 3. So this Christmas feels like I threw good money after bad and now I have $10 for new year’s eve. Next year the family will get socks and all my good friends (who feel more like my family honestly) will get all the goodies. Their support and kindness throughout the year has helped more than they probably know. I just noticed today that I have been on this site for 2 years. I would have never done it if it hadn’t been for my friends in the blogging community particularly Newscoma. Thanks! Happy New Year to all of ya’ll!
I came across this little jewel of news writing while looking through boingboing.
There’s several things that amuse me: The incident happened at 11:30 p.m., but there was only a minimal amount of alcohol. The people in Wenatchee are really nice because when he started drifting into their lane they stopped and let him through. The man slams into a telephone pole (apparently at some speed cause he totaled his car). His one word response was “Pterodactyl.” The newspaper then clarifies what a pterodactyl is. “A pterodactyl was a giant winged reptile that lived more than 65 million years ago.” (Really? Thought that it was one of them there endangered buzzards or somethin.) The best part of the story is that after he runs his car into a pole, totals it and then starts talking about seeing dinosaurs he is taken to the hospital where he is treated and released. I want to live in Washington state, because if I were to pull something like that in Tennessee … well lets just say I wouldn’t be treated and released.
Oh this is so fun! Make your own champion of cheer here
They are actually a design firm. Their donations go to ?….I guess some sort of charity or other. All I know is that I enjoyed making the snowpeeps and I encourage you to go make your own Champion of Cheer.
this just freaks me out kinda. i do not want the Cheesy-poof to glow.
The newest security threat, punk kids.
The fact that the CIA deleted the torture tapes tells me they were beyond the pale even for the CIA. Must have been one hell of a snuff film.
I was thinking random thoughts while reading a classified ad that was advertising catboarding and I wondered to myself, “Is that anything like waterboarding? If it is, could it be considered torture?”
Then for some reason this morning I was thinking about Oprah and her endorsement of Obama. There’s quite a buzz right now about her “political power.” I’m speculating that one day she will enter a more political arena and this is her way of getting her feet wet. It wouldn’t be much of a stretch for her. She has her own show, her own magazine, her own channel and she does nice things for people. Poor Obama, he’s almost overshadowed by her. Queen Oprah.
On the walk to work I discovered that I shouldn’t have worn a coat because it was actually hot outside. Yesterday was cold and damp. I never could get the hang of this time of year.
The picture above is a rough of tomorrow’s cartoon unless one of these other weird ideas takes root and we have John Ashcroft getting catboarded or Queen Oprah for president. We’ll see.
newscoma tagged me some time ago and i’m just getting to it: (see #1). Update: scout got me too!

4) Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
Here we go,
1. I procrastinate. Everyone is done and I’m bringing up the rear gasping “Pray God I’m not too late!” I don’t know why, it doesn’t make sense.
2. I’m very self conscious. That is unless I’ve had a few, then look out. Meeting new people can be torture for me, but once I’ve met them I’m fine.
3. I’m pretty simple and direct in my dealings. I’m not very clever or subtle. What you see is pretty much it. So I miss a lot of what goes on around me because I missed some small detail that would have explained a lot had i been paying any attention.
4. My attention span works like a remote that is in the hands of a channel flipping maniac. I can handle 2 things going on at a time (friend & ballgame, or fishing or whatever). 3 things is pushing it. Any more than that going on at the same time and something is going to get lost in the shuffle. I’m an analog girl in a digital world.
5. I hate squishy food. I ate a lot of oatmeal when I was a kid.
6. I’m scared to death of near about everything; snakes, spiders, heights, traffic, cops, my parents, crazy drunk people and psycho lesbians (why are there so many?)
7. I trust to luck more than i should. Although in the past it has served me well, i shouldn’t push it the way i do.
So, that’s about it ya’ll. Oh and rack9 your it!
Well, if you like bossing people around, this is the thing for you. Hilarious, thanks ‘Coma. She tells me there is also a subservient santa, but alas i could not find it.
Also, for your friday giggles enjoy my personal favorite. Go abduct some cows!
I’m about Christmased out by now and I still have a whole month to go, agh.
oh. my. god. these are ssssssooooo pretty! feast your eyes on these beauties!
I’ve heard a lot of BS in my time, but this presidential race is going to take the prize. Take this interview with Mike Huckabee (from Rolling Stone) for example and this clip from the debate and ask yourself “We are already bringing up the rear in science and math among other countries of the world, we seem to be going backward instead of forward. Will this guy be able to keep his hands off of our children’s textbooks? Will they be able to compete in a shrinking workforce? Does this guy value education at all? If the planet is only 6,000 years old then where did these fossils come from? I think these are fair questions to ask a guy that wants me to elect him president. Oh and go here too. Not really digging on this Huckabee guy.
Christ, I’m so sick. Nothing very sexy about hacking and snotting. My nose has tissue burn from all the blowing. just thought i’d share. This picture was drawn years ago, I found it in one of my old old sketchbooks. His name is Red Thermal: Feverish Super Hero. It’s still funny all these years later.
