I'll miss you Dad. Look for me when I get there so we can sit and have some iced tea with lemon and talk about old times.

The New Phone

I recently picked up a Samsung Captivate with my AT&T U-verse rebate. It's an Android phone. I had originally kicked around the idea of getting an iPhone but I had these visions of being assimilated into the Borg. I like the Android because it's produced by numerous companies which fosters competition. People and companies trying to be/do the best at something is what drives our economic engine. I have to say that the phone is amazing. The apps are also amazing. I can be without my computer for a few days and I have nearly all the capabilities of my laptop on my phone. Not to mention the HD video recording capabilities!

Chastised!

I have been beaten down and chastised for my severe lack of posting. I must admit that I have become almost blase' about my blog. I don't know if it is due to a change of direction in nearly every aspect of my life or simply growing tired of the whole scene.

In the last year my job has changed locations twice. The hours I work my shift are steadily creeping backwards. Twenty some odd years ago I started work at the liesurely hour of 3:00am. As of 2009 the start of the shift has become 11:00pm. It's only a few hours but a drastic change in lifestyle. In this same year I have also become a grandfather. This has probably been the single most life-altering change of my current nearly 'empty nest' life. You've probably heard someone say that they wish they could have been a Grandparent before being a parent. I must whole heartedly agree with that statement. Being a grandparent is such a joy.

To spread that joy, I urge you to view the most inspiring video ever made. It just so happens to star the very grandbaby that has altered my perception of life

Fun With Jib Jab

It's been a pathetically long time since I have posted. I conceivably have lost my lone reader. I am now essentially posting for my own edification. If you just happened to stumble across this blog, my apologies for interrupting your internet.

Let the edification begin!

Just Because

My grandson is growing so fast! I just had to post this "conversation" we had with him. He actually does a little laugh at one point!

Can You Tell I'm Bored?

Two video posts in one day. Not healthy! I've been trying to "come down" after the birth of my Grandson. Today has really been low key.

Just For Fun

Just a video I found quite interesting from "Francis and the Lights". Makes me think of a hybrid of David Byrne (Talking Heads) and Kramer from Seinfeld.

A Fun Couple of Minutes

Here's a short video from the band Hawk Nelson. It's not a music video it's just the guys having fun on the road in Sacramento. They are a Christian Pop-Punk band. I needed to post some fluff so my head doesn't explode from the government takeover of private industry and our continual march towrds socialism.

Must See TV!

OMG! This is incredibly awesome! I poached it off of Joan Of Argghh!'s blog



I'm getting so sick and tired of sheeple all around me waiting for their share of the bailout. I keep telling them that they are PAYING for the bailout but they just don't get it. They continue grazing in an oblivious field of grass. I feel like I'm the Lone Ranger. I realize I am surrounded in a bastion of liberalism on the left coast of the continent but at some point SOMONE has to see the insanity happening around them!

Hats off to the folks in the video as they throw their hard earned dollars at Chuckie Schumer. He's the one who says the "American people don't care" about a little pork. You bastard! You work for us yet you spit in our faces as you laugh with contempt at us "regular" folk.

Mr. Schumer will surely reap what he sows in the afterlife.

Still Alive

It's been a ridiculously long time since I've posted anything at all and I suppose there are rumors of my untimely demise. So I'm figuring something is better than nothing! So here's something I found amusing and entertaining as well as unique.

Critiqued

My wife was reading my blog the other night while I was at work. She mentioned how she used to enjoy reading it (oops!). It used to be funny, she said. Now it's all anti-Obama posts.

OK, I get the hint. I'll knock off the politics. Nothing is more devisive than talking about politics and religion. Folks have their mind made up from very early on in life and it is nearly impossible to sway them from their beliefs. That's not to say that dialogue and vigorous debates are not encouraged. It just means I would be pretty hard pressed to cite an actual case where my opinion changed another persons mind on a particular subject.

So...to be be more apolitical and nonreligious I'll share this bit of humor with you!

Domino's Scientists Test Limits Of What Humans Will Eat

Frightening

This would be hilarious if it were not so frightening. The people that are intervied in this video have NO CLUE as to who or what they are voting for!! They drank the Kool-Aide, they ate up the sound bites and fed at the slop trough of the mainstream media. Regurgitating the lies and obfuscations as truth and fact. America, I can proudly say with convistion and honor that I did NOT vote for the president-elect! If you did vote for the president elect I hope you get everything you wish for with his administration because at the end of his first term I will not be saying "see, I told you so." The country will be in such disrepair it will not be necessary.

Watch the video

Hilarious!

Well, actually it should make you cry because it's so doggone true!

Big Thanks To Joe!

My buddy Joe posted this for me on his blog. I just had to share it. Gotta love The Onion!!

They always claim to be tolerant and openminded. Including all and nonjudgemental...except when it comes to dissenting opinions.
