Poop In Space

Here is a short, funny explanation of how they manage to poop in space and what they do with it. Enjoy your weekend!

How Many Of Me


HowManyOfMe.com
LogoThere are
1
or fewer people with my name in the U.S.A.

How many have your name?



Hats off to Delcatto for this. I agree with him, I call b*llsh*t. The last time I googled my name all I could find is about some GI in the mideast. I think he was from Iowa, apparently popular as well. All I found for me was some old political donations list from Spring Green. I have never donated politically anywhere! I have a pretty good idea what happened there and, well, don't get me started. What's a little fraud in the family, anyway.

Hayseed Dixie - Tolerance

As I go beyond my two drink weeknight limit, let me present my find of the night. I have a few of their cds. Yeah, I gotta be in the mood for it, but I still love it!

Pic Dump 8

Here we go again with another huge Pic Dump! Some you may have seen, some you may not. These are just some pics that I found during my travels that are odd, interesting, funny and/or weird. As always, discretion may be advised after the break. Remember to click on the pic to see original size!



24 more after the break!

Happy Birthday, Bro



I gave up sending cards several years ago. I was never any good at it. In the years since, I think everyone I know has accepted that as me just being me. It's certainly not my best trait but I don't see it changing anytime soon.

Anyway, while I was at work I realized that today was my brother's birthday. Of course I didn't send a card, but maybe he'll check this post out.

Happy Birthday Brother! I think you wanted Favre to go to the Superbowl. I wanted to see him get the crap beat out of him. I'm sorry you didn't get what you wanted, but I did! All our best to you and yours!

The Meat-Up and Who-Cakes

Ground Beef, topped with 2 pepperoni logs, stuffed with Cheez Whiz, topped with a layer of bacon, topped with a layer of mozzarella cheese slices, topped with more bacon, topped with meatballs and served with brown gravy.


Inspired by Horton Hears a Who! : A stack of five pancakes drenched in boysenberry and blueberry syrup, covered in rainbow-colored chocolate candy and topped with a pink Dum-Dum lollipop.


All this and tons more at This is why you're fat, dot com.

Now I'm hungry. I think I'll go deep fry something...

Smoking



A while ago I had posted about how I had started on the patch -again- to try to quit -again. That didn't work out as well as it did last time. Almost 18 months ago I quit for 5 months using the patch. Now, the patch has helped get me down to 5-8 cigarettes a day, but no further.

So now I'm trying Chantex. I started the starter kit last Sunday. Tomorrow I start on the regular dose, morning and evening. So far I have still smoked some, but I can feel the effects of smoking diminishing. I expect to have no need to smoke this week. If I do, I'll get no rush of nicotine, just a bad taste and guilt I suppose.

So the main challenge is changing my habits. At home is easier than at work. I don't like to go to the cafeteria during lunch, and I'm not allowed to stay at my desk. But if I go to my truck like I usually do, well, things may happen. So starting Monday I will have to suck it up and sit in the lunchroom. I will make sure I have plenty of newspaper to read and wear my headphones. If it gets up near freezing or better I will be walking around the campus most breaks, like I did before winter. I'm sure I could use the exercise!

People In Order: Age 1 To 100

Fascinating. A must-see for your sense of mortality.

Is this the future? If so, I hope it is the future of video games and not real music. It just doesn't seem right to me.
