The More Things Change, The More I Hate 'Em

Just about every time I get to where I am comfortable with something they go and change it. Take Facebook for example. I liked the old look and feel. I was able to navigate around without much thought to driving, just enjoying the view. Suddenly I have to pay attention to where I am going and how I am getting there so I cannot pay much attention to the surroundings.
When did we lose sight of "If it Ain't Broken Don't Fix It!!" ??

Summertime - Bar-B-Que'd Bermuda Grass

Well gang, I am so sorry I griped about the cold weather last Winter. I apologize to whatever weather god is listening and to all my friends (both of 'em). I'm sure the endless heat this summer is all my fault. I swear that if I knew somebody heard me and had the power to respond I would have toned my bitching down. My lawn is now a crispy critter. I don't need to mow. I just walk around and the grass breaks off at the root and makes a little "Scritchhh" sound.
My dog is doing all he can to keep his favorite plants alive, but he has a limited supply of ammunition and in his delusional state, he thinks he can keep up.
If this stuff were edible I might not be quite so angry. Heck, if the heat equally affected plants I like and those I have to pull out I would just nod my head and go with it. However weeds seem to have a tolerance for sunshime that is not shared by the $39.99 hybred piece of crap that I spent 3 hours digging a hole for and an additional $30.00 in imported dirt trying to create a comfy bed to grow in.
Arghhh...I gotta go run up a bill with the water company and then go buy some chemicals that will cause the local tree huggers to dance around in my driveway screamimg obscenities at me.
Where is the Swamp Thing when you need him??

Winter Sports for Couch Potatos

Spelling Bees is the only one that comes to mind. But only if you can do it lying down. There are no TV watching olympic catagories as of my last check (Curling comes close).

Aw please get the stupid talking heads off the air

Watching CNN yesterday (Yeah, usually a waste of time).


But those idiots did something so stupid that I am compelled to comment.
They were talking about the semi-failed car bomb attempt.
These morons were telling the bomber all the things he/she did wrong and how to fix them.

"You need to mix fuel oil (not gasoline) and fertilizer directly together".
"Just having cans of gas on the front seat won't work".
"You need to use a blasting cap and detonator. For a bigger bang".
"Your wiring was amateurish. You need to neaten it up."

So I guess the next time with all the mistakes corrected this nutcase will be able to kill a few people and make a bigger headline for the news pronouncers on CNN??
They did however leave out one important point.

"You need to stand real close so your detonator signal is strong enough".

Hetero vs. Homo a viewpoint

Every species that God intended to endure has a means of procreation. They do not. So by opposing them you are forcing them to dance about and wave smoke and mirrors and shout a lot. That's all they can do. They can never accept this logic because it signals the end of days for their kind. They cannot accept that and stay sane so they band together in support of each other and protest. They are hoping that enough normal people will exhibit enough kindness that they will be allowed to strut a few remaining seconds on the stage of life before the inevitable end. Whether they blame God, Nature, or Mankind, matters little. The weak and deadend forms of life perish. It is the one law Congress cannot change.
Consider that "Survival of the Fittest" does not always mean the strongest, the most clever, the loudest, or the most numerous.  It usually means the one that endures. Procreation is the cornerstone of endurance. Even having it is no guarantee.  Dinosaurs are an example.  But without it nothing else matters.

Male Egos

Here's one for all the males out there that have stumbled into facebook and re-connected with all thier friends from way back in highschool.  Yep, a whole lot of people made some excellent lifechoices and are doing way better that you are. Old "so and so" who couldn't even tie his shoelaces without help in 12th grade has made a small fortune in real estate and owns a bunch of strip malls while spending all his time taking cruises around the South Seas and Alaska.  While you are wondering how you are gonna keep up the payments on your wife's Chrevolet.
Just remember this... Outlive the SOB.  I don't care how much money he made while he was alive. Dancing on his grave feels good. There is no better form of revenge to compare to standing there saying," I told him to slow down but... Noooo!".

Still kicking

This is a short one. I am just letting everyone know I am still alive.  And yep, I'm still PO'd at the current state of the union, economy, and the administration.
We are so far in debt that we may never see the light of day. If China forecloses on the paper it is holding then they own the U.S. lock stock and barrel.
Speaking of barrels, what are all the oil skimmers doing with the oil they pick up? It is highly contaminated with salt water so I don't think they can sell it to Exxon or something.  Maybe they are dumping it in Washington D.C.?? Nobody would notice with all the crap flowing out of the capitol these days.
