If I hadn’t ever lived with and/or married allegedly human female hominids or, to be even more specifically remorseful, serially shared living quarters with a number of visually different appearing WOMEN, I would never have had to consider just how many, many things there are that drive me stark raving, sputtering, palsiedly quivering, foaming at the mouth CRAZY, when to and WHY I should bite my tongue, ( Ouch! ) or have ever made me carefully weigh the possibility of going to prison for...

My friend just sent this to me, I don't know where it originated, and you probably saw it posted elsewhere on the internet, but if not, it's new to you! Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence? Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned. Two lost their sons serving in the Revolutionary Army; another had two sons captured. Nine of the 56 fought and died from... Sign in to see full entry.

I was sitting here, wondering what I was doing a year ago today, and scrolled and clicked my back to see how things had changed since then. Here is the posting for that day, and as I already knew, much has changed, and yet I don't feel any wiser, now. I still have "good ideas" that turn out to have actually been the other kind! Saturday, July 5, 2008 How I spent my summer vacation! Don't try this at home, grasshoppers! One of my meal delivery clients had a yard sale, this weekend. At it, I... Sign in to see full entry.

A young man went into his doctor’s office, and demurred telling the receptionist and everyone else in the waiting room, the reason for his visit, preferring to speak privately with the doctor. When alone with the physician in the examination room, the doctor looked at his patient information form on his clipboard, and saw that the information box was blank. Looking over the top of his reading glasses, he inquired, “So, what seems to be the problem, young man?” The patient said to him, “Doc, if I... Sign in to see full entry.

Recently, a lady on my meals on wheels route, a very nice, and proper Christian lady, made me a gift of a movie that she told me contained too many swear words in it, for her taste. Today I watched it, and began thinking about her opinion of the movie, based upon scripted sounds uttered by the actors. I think like the late George Carlin, who had given the concept of profanity much thought and was very eloquent in his defense of our freedom of speech, and he defended his right to utter such...

Apparently, people are still using dating services to find their perfect match in life, and recently, even those who are a perfect match in bed! I suppose that it was bound to happen. With the advent ( invent?) of the computer, and the increasingly fast paced life of people today, a roughly 50% divorce rate, ( do multiple divorces skew this figure? ) heightened expectations, shortened attention spans, increasing life spans, etc. the old-fashioned Matchmaker had to embrace computer technology or...

Probably the most universally human trait, one we all share is a yearning for that which we don’t have. Nearly everyone struggles to gain the approval of family, friends, peers, and society, and if we achieve this, instead of feeling quiet contentment and satisfaction, some internal demon demands and drives us toward ever more, more and still more! Those who are successful in their career and amass great wealth, fame, and the adoration of millions always seem to have a painfully yearning hole in... Sign in to see full entry.

Knowing human nature, does it make sense to you that the people in those Geico ads see a stack of cash, the one with those googly eyes on top, and pointing it out to someone else, they discuss it and then go back to whatever they were doing as though they have more money, than Bill Gates? Those three roofers, go back to laying shingles, instead of the first guy to have noticed it, sneaking it into his lunch box, hoping that nobody observed this. I used to be a roofer, and I could have earned... Sign in to see full entry.

I suspect that a splinter group of the PPDFA, ( Paranoid Partnership for a Drug Free America ) has poisoned the Nestle cookie dough, with E coli. If you bake the dough into cookies, it’s safe, but if you have the munchies because YOU “ got baked,” and eat the raw dough, look out! Someone is trying to sicken or kill pot users, and who is more motivated to do this, than these paranoid partners? This desperate measure is probably the last gasp, of this radical faction, the few surviving ex-members... Sign in to see full entry.

Iran ’s leaders are finding out just how hard it is to steal an election, cover up the theft, and get away with it. They are probably regretting the decision to try to make their form of government appear to be democratically elected, by holding sham elections, instead of just admitting openly that they are religious tyrants, no different than the Taliban. DAMN! LBJ, and George W. Bush made stealing elections, and “getting away with murder,” look so EASY, too! Johnson had the US senate under his... Sign in to see full entry.
