I don’t think anyone can say it better or more succinctly than Illiad:

While sitting at home, wishing my stomach would settle down so I could eat something, I had to play the meme of the day…

I am Hannibal

Which A-Team member are you???

News

President Ronald Reagan was concerned about maintaining good relations with Iraq despite evidence of Saddam’s “almost daily” use of chemical weapons against Iranian troops and Kurdish rebels.

Check out the latest photos on my site. Here’s one from my sister-in-law’s parents-in-law’s house.

They like Christmas a lot. Really. A lot.

Day started out well. Alex was impatient, of course, and popped into the den at 7 am to discover how much Santa had added to his stash. His Oma came over to play with him, and all was well. The toilet stopped flushing, and backed up into the tub. Drano and plungers had no effect. Angela got pulled over for speeding (warning thank goodness). Plumber only cost 130 bucks, but says our entire sewer line needs to be replaced some time in the next year, at a cost of 1400 dollars or so. Joy to the world.

Coming up next, dinner with a friend’s family at the house. Let’s hope the plumbing cooperates.

I’ve made a lot of complicated things from paper, including a grand piano (twice), a cuckoo clock, and a Viking ship. But, the Yamaha Motor Paper Craft site is daunting even to me. Dayum. Imagine assembling a motorcycle out of paper, including suspension and tires and all. Geez.

Poster of importance to Washington state troopers, anyway. From March 4 to Nov. 27, 2002, one Adams County highway cleanup crew picked up 2,666 jugs of urine and 67 bags with human excrement in them.

Texas housewife busted for hawking erotic toys

I love this state. Not only can’t I buy a decent bottle of beer in the city limits of San Angelo, I can’t buy sex toys either! When will the insanity end?

Seriously, they used undercover narcotics officers to run an anti-vibrator sting. I’m guessing there are more important ‘crimes’ to solve.

In case you want to know what it looks like when you pull up nasty ass carpet and find hardwood floors that “need a little work,” check out our latest addition to Bunk’s Gallery: Redecorating. Whoo boy. Wish we could have just had elves do that for us…

Three coats of polyurethane later, the floors are as complete as they will get in the near future. Now, to turn the former garage into a decent room, rather than the warehouse-like vault it was last week.

And, two finals down, one to go. Too bad the one remaining is the one that I’m hoping to maybe just pass the damned class…

PowerPoint Makes You Dumb
Really, the title says it all. Except, of course, that astronauts may have died because Powerpoint is a tool of stupid shit.

Anyone else look at The Dobbertin Surface Orbiter and think, Ark II or maybe the vehicle in Damnation Alley?

Octodog looks an awful lot like CthulhuDog to me…

Not only are there hardwood floors hiding under carpet through 75% of the new house, the hardwood is in decent condition and is absolutely gorgeous. The living room in particular has some fabulous looking wood. Makes me really question the sanity of someone who would cover it up on purpose. Photos soon.
