This has nothing to do with The Princess Bride

Can't wait to get back on the mountain. Soon. Very Soon...

I love that when I got home last night my apartment wasn't a sauna. The old house was an oven. Hopefully that means that I can sleep easy tonight. The 90 degrees isn't bad, it's the 80 degree nights that's killer...

Fucked up scene. I forgot to put on my patch today. Urge to kill was rising. Then I find that in my cargo pocket there was a pack of cigarettes. Of all the days to find a full pack of cigarettes. I smoked one and then gave the rest of the pack away. I think I'm going to have to keep a couple patches at work for these situations in the future...

I'm going to get a picture of corn getting covered in honey this weekend. It's for the new blog banner I'm working on. I couldn't be happier...

Damn I really want a slurpee. First stop after work 7-11...

Words are a sawed off shotgun

PANIC!!! SELL SELL SELL!!! PANIC!!! BUY BUY BUY!!! PANIC!!! SELL SELL SELL!!!! (or something like that) Dow went into a nose dive today. Not exactly sure why. Probably one little dude on the market floor who said, "I bet greece is just going to default with or without the new austerity measures" and someone overheard it and started screaming, "GREECE DEFAULTED!!" Then panic. Finally everyone realized it was false and things started to go back up. Economics, oh how I love thee...

I got a thing about the EHS reunion today. Funny though, I didn't go to school there. I should of, but I didn't. I'd still go to the reunion though. It'd be nice to see all those people from elementary/middle school. I can't believe that they're 100 times more organized that what MRHS has so far. I guess I shouldn't bitch or someone is going to try to get me to plan the thing. And while if I did it'd be a reunion to end all, I'm not doing that shit...

I miss me some Pangford lovin'...

For any of you who don't already follow Polar Bear Soup, I'd recommend it. There's some great stuff there about a range of environmental issues. The most recent posts have all been about the leak in the gulf...

I can't wait for summer to be here and the grocery stores are flooded with corn...

Morning rant

This morning I learned that giraffes are in the same grouping as cattle and deer. They also have the same number of neck bones as you and I, just much much larger. I really think that giraffes are neat. Maybe I'll start doing a regular feature on them. Then again maybe as soon as I finish this I'll never mention them again...

I was supposed to go bowling tonight. I've had it planned for like 8 weeks. The whole time I was thinking, "Why are we planning this out so far in advance?" Turns out it was foolish to plan so far out as its no longer an option with my foot. The closest thing that I could think of that I can still do is Wii Bowling, which we might do. It's pretty fun...

Speaking of the foot, it's doing well, I think. Tomorrow I have an appointment to get the stitches removed and I'm hoping that all is well. I get this bad feeling that I broke open a stitch at some point. It could also just be the natural healing process, but I'm not sure. At this point my biggest fear is that something is going to go horribly wrong and I'll have to go back in for surgery and start again at square one. Let's hope that's not the case...

Craigslist prostitution is a hot button issue there days. I had a feeling it was only a matter of time....

David got me a shirt with corn on it. I love it...

A little more serious perhaps?

So after that last post I figure that I should put up something of value...

My dad started a new blog to showcase his building designs. It's pretty cool stuff. You can check it out here....

I haven't been on a bus in over three weeks. It's very strange for me. I hope that when I finally get back to it that the 7 is just the same as it's always been. Luckily for me I don't think that my presence or lack thereof will have any effect on the 7...

The President announced 17 billion dollars is cuts from the federal budget. There is a lot of uproar that it's insignificant. However the figure as small as it may seem is larger than the GDP of 85 countries on the planet. So while it may seem like a drop in the bucket, 17 billion is still a huge number. Don't forget that...

I cannot wait for the Beatles albums to be remastered. They're being released 9/9/9. I'm already starting to plan the festivities...

And I think that I'll close with a little "happy" corn...

















I guess this wasn't worth much in the end either. Oh well...
