to the 1 maybe 2 loyal readers of this young blog, I am now moving back to blogspot. I have used blogger since I started blogging with various blogs over the last 4 years or so and left it thinking the grass was greener. I was pissed at the lack of templates and lack of decent 3 column templates specifically. WordPress frustrates me in several ways which i will not waste the energy explaining. So all you need to know is new name and blog at:
Today was an optional work day due to Veterans Day. I showed up cuz I need the cash. My boss took the option to stay home. So on this Monday I wore jeans and said fuck the dress code. It felt good. I really don’t get the no jeans policy when msot of the “business casual” attire donned looks like shit. People stretch it pretty far. Wearing comfortable clothes and comfortable looking clothes and getting by with it because they don’t happen to contain denim. Bring it on, tell me my nice dark designer denim doesn’t look better, more professional even, than your wrinkled, wrinkle free, knock-off dockers. Ok so I could make the bold stand today without worry since half the office stayed home, but still…
This one sided covo was overheard coming from the 55+ year old mouth of the weird, geeky tech-support guy, lets call him Allen. Someone (i think from within the office) calls Allen to tell him that their computer problem is fixed. He quickly is districted by a pack of “hot rich girls.” I can only imagine who he could have been on the other end of the phone and their reaction. Keep in mind that this expression from Allen is not out of character.
There is a group of girls running by the office building yelling “whoowhooo”
I don’t know, must be from the high school nearby, rich area
I hate to say this but RICH CHICKS ARE HOT!
I was at (inaudible) the other day and wow…now I’m talking about the moms not the daughters (sure..)
I mean they got money to go to the gym, get their hair done, look good.
$4.3 million in one day! Pretty freaking amazing. Paul is known for his internet following and you may wish to cynically compare his efforts to Howard Dean’s falter but Paul is something real. Take straw polls fwtw but Paul placed first, edging out hometown favorite Rudy, in the New York Straw Poll! While the GOP fails to take him seriously you can’t ignore his war chest, although not backed by gold, is unusually large for such a “long shot.” I know the focus is on the GOP nomination but an independent candidacy would bring even larger support from both sides. He may not have enough cash to get on the ballot as an independent in all states but perhaps just enough to give the GOP establishment the middle finger, the same GOP establishment who has seemingly abandoned core principles of small government, spending, etc. GOP needs to think twice before kicking around Ron Paul. How easy they forget the effect of Ross Perot in 1992 and Pat Buchanan in 2000…
not me but the same peer at the office who prompted this post. This time she dreamed about a different co-worker and the co-worker’s son. It was a bizarre dream as many dreams are, that’s another reason to keep it to yourself. I should mention that the dreamer is female and the co-workers she relays her work dreams to are also females. Do you think she would tell me she had a dream about me (being the man that I am). As innocent as the dream may be, that would really cross the line and rob me of the usual convenience of hiding my cringe behind the walls of my cube.
The Ron Paul revolution is a crazy ride. With all the energy in this grass roots phenomenon you never know what you’re gonna get, hence the Ron Paul sex offender delivery van:
Or as a friend said: “is Ron Paul punking people now?”
Honk for Ron Paul, LOL, right on brutha.
***Update***
Apparently this van gets around, here is a separate photo at a different location, a close up.
***Update II***
And of course the campain is not compete without this. What is really amazing is that this kind of effort is done by volunteers and supporters without any real direction by the campaign, at least as far as I am aware of. Join the Revolution, VOTE RON PAUL!
***Update III***
Ok, so I’ll stop updating with the seemingly endless kick ass Ron Paul mobiles. This one is too genius to not post.
“The Constitution has been under attack by this administration,” Kucinich told an reporter during the vote, and his effort is “part of a growing movement” to defend it. - WashPost
Perhaps he should just vote for Ron Paul. Problem solved. On a related note, I took one of those “who is your candidate” quizzes that I fucking hate (I hate being classified and categorized by a 5-10 question yes or no quiz) after being prodded by a friend. The magic quiz told me I aligned most with Ron Paul (guess it is accurate in that sense) and told me Kicinich was a close second. Interesting that the two seen as the party “extremes” come out so close.
it is fucking painful (which each subsequent step) and nothing near what I would consider enjoyable!
“Wearing the wrong underwear is the pits,” said Diane Sylofski, graduate student in instruction of campus recreation at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Comfortable undergarments are the first step of proper fitness attire. The type and duration of the activity is a big factor when choosing special undergarments. “For the most part, choose something that is comfortable and something supportive for the guys,” Sylofski said. -DN
that he won’t be the next president. Is he just havin a little retirement fun, raisin his status and stature, strokin the ego, doin it cuz Jerri wants some big time experience in the biz? The joke of a candidacy will end soon enough in failure. Now at least we know Freddie isn’t that dumb, he apparently realizes that an empty candidate can only get so far.
and try to tell me what this old babbling fucker is saying:
What, you don’t speak “old babbling fucker?” Perhaps that’s my problem as well. First he says he is against abortion regulations but then comes around and says that he believes that life begins at conception and has voted 100% pro-life. He even uses liberal language about how he’s against criminalizing abortion and young girls and then says that he saw his baby kickin around in Jerri.
He is often confused and desperately trying to reconcile his own past/present position to align with GOP voters. He is such a ignorant fraud of a candidate. One of the main reasons he gets this far is cause of his political consultant wife. No way he could figure this shit out on his own. Does he even have a platform yet, beyond “common sense conservatism” and “federalism?”
Environmentalist University of Nebraska at Lincoln Student Senator Fights The Turf!!
Monica Sanford, a graduate student in architecture and county regional planning, said she researched synthetic turfs and found reports that say the materials found in a synthetic turf would eventually harm the environment.
Sanford voted against the resolution.
Bill Goa Jr., senior associate director of campus rec, said he hasn’t found any reports of synthetic turf harming the environment.
“We would never, ever do anything to hurt the environment,” he said.
I would be curious to hear how turf hurts the environment more than, say, fertilizer, mower exhaust, and water consumption. I was always under the impression that it aided in reducing waste and pollution by recycling and grinding up all those pesky used tires for the underlayment and synthetic materials.
I’m not really a big conspiracy theorist but don’t think for a minute that
