Guy's blog about life with pets in northern mich.

Okay, it is high time that you all STOP saying, "There ought to be a law!" Such loose talk has given us THESE thorns in mankind's ( and woman kind's ) side. Sadly, in my lifetime of experience, the two words " woman " and " kind " seldom belong in the same sentence, let alone become COMPOUNDED together, but that is the subject for another blog. I have lost track of from whence this came, or even if I copied it from another blogger, intending to send it to my dad. I just noticed that this was... Sign in to see full entry.

My brother or my buddy Dave Bradbury, sent me this nearly a year ago. This Spring, CNN did a bit about him, and as far as I know, nobody has seen or heard about the guy in this story. This fellow must have a set on him, the size of grapefruit! Can you imagine how nervous his first day at his post at the gate of the parking lot, must have been? After the first month or so, he probably would have relaxed a bit, but nobody need wonder what he was thinking about, all day, every day, as he sat in his... Sign in to see full entry.

This is an interesting talk, comparing our current economic crisis to drinking at a bar...I drink at home, it is far cheaper, and it has been years since I seriously played pool. Regardless, I usually find mathematical comparisons dry and boring, and I find it hard to be bothered enough to follow along, all the way to the end. This one is speaking in a language that I understand, (barspeak) and of course it got and held my attention, because beer drinking is involved. You will find this to be an...

My boss sent me this today, It's from the early American caveman days, back when I was just a sprout. You can tell it's really old, by the Flintstone cars and the old swim suits. I wonder why the men weren't carrying their clubs, with all the sexy young cavewomen running around, not wearing their long-handled winter furs, though.

How past patriots astutely handled negative comments about America JFK'S Secretary of State, Dean Rusk, was in France in the early 60's when DeGaulle decided to pull out of NATO. DeGaulle said he wanted all US military out of France as soon as possible. Rusk responded, "Does that include those who are buried here?" DeGaulle did not respond. You could have heard a pin drop. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When in England, at a fairly large conference, Colin Powell was asked by the Archbishop... Sign in to see full entry.

When did Montel Williams become a 25 grand per-commercial taping, trick-whore? Alright, I’m only guessing about what the price of Montel’s integrity and self-respect might now be, but after a bit more reflection, I ought to have guessed that the price of Monty’s remaining self-respect and self-image, must be worth, on today’s de flated moral market, a price much closer to something like 25 HUNDRED per taping! Okay, admittedly I have been out of the whole “Evaluation ( de valuation) of other... Sign in to see full entry.

Do you know how when you are stung by a honeybee, for the first few seconds you feel a rapidly building heat, but aren’t yet certain that you have been stung? Yesterday, while working ( painting the bathroom ) on my house, I was stung, and I knew instantaneously that I had been stung, because it felt as though molten metal had dropped onto my shoulder blade. This was no honeybee sting, as it turned out. I had been stung by a bald-faced hornet! Those damned aggressively cantankerous bugs don’t... Sign in to see full entry.

Yesterday, ( early February, '09 )Marilyn took delivery of a brand new, motorized, wheelchair that she fully intends to never, ever actually use. “ Denial, thy name is woman.” This convoluted ability to plan ahead for a future which “ One ” irrationally hopes will never happen, even though this “ One ” knows better, and has also observed many predicted, early signs of a need for technological assistance, to remain mobile, and from observance of several new limitations in “ One’s ” daily life,...

Viagra has now been positively connected to hearing loss. How ironic! Now millions of men will have to choose between romance and deafness! That would have to be a terrible choice for anyone to have to make. I think that I have already read this story. I think it was called “ The Catch 22 of the Magi.” Something like that, anyway. In the story, after enduring many years of derision, laughter, rejection and depression, a desperately lonely man elected to undergo several painful plastic surgeries,... Sign in to see full entry.
