I just got an email titled Kanye’s Mama Dies After Plastic Surgery. Wondering if it was true, I googled that text and found out that it was. Thanks spam!
Ron Paul Is Crazy
Ron Paul’s Congressional voting record shows that he is a crazy person, I just wanted to point that out.
That One Dell Guy
I always wondered what happened to that Dell guy who did those commercials years ago. What was it? A year ago that he got busted for Schmoking the ganj? At least he’s now ‘happy,’ according to the interview anyways. And finally, he looks creepy as fuck in that picture that accompanies the interview.
Mukasey Sworn In
Well, he got through – though by the closest margin in 50 years, 53-40. Not quite the 70% that it was initially expected to be. Hopefully he won’t fuck it up too bad. Though, it’s hard to do worse than Alberto Gonzalez. There’s a lot to like about the guy, I will say that, but that whole waterboarding thing is just crazy to me. On the upside, if you can consider it that, I believe Mukasey said that he’d uphold – not that he’d have the option to otherwise – any law passed by Congress stating that waterboarding equated to torture and therefore was illegal. That being said, I can’t find a link online where I read that.
Damn Thermostat
Ever have one of those thermostats where if you set it for 65° and it turns your house into a tropical jungle, but the next day it won’t even kick on, regardless of what you set it to?
Fuck me that’s annoying as all get out.
Mukasey Is A Moron
So, it looks like Mukasey’s nomination for Attorney General may not get past committee. And rightfully so, I might add. In this day and age, why are we still talking about waterboarding? It is clearly torture, how is this confusing to people? Waterboarding = torture. Torture = illegal. Therefore, waterboarding = illegal. It’s simple logic, people. If someone can’t say ‘waterboarding is illegal,’ then they shouldn’t be the head of the fucking Justice Department.
Fail.
Another Reason to Vote for Barack Obama
Barack Obama pledges Net neutrality laws if elected president. With all the shit going on lately, e.g. AT&T fucking with Bit Torrent, perhaps the next President will actually get something done about it.
Semper Fi
Apparently my brother decided to join the Marines yesterday.
Brainstemming
- brainstemming (brain·stem·ing)
- Noun
- Much like brainstorming, however the group of people doing brainstemming usually have no idea what they are talking about, yet still come up with great ideas. Called brainstemming because they are using the most basic part of their brain – the brain stem – to come up with their ideas.
How To Get A Free Tire From Wal-Mart: A Detailed Experience
So, I’ve mentioned that I got a free tire from Wal-Mart. However, I’d feel bad if I didn’t mention the fact that it took seven trips to Wal-Mart to sort everything out:
- Around Saturday 3:30pm. Initial drop-off, Becky and I take two cars there and drop mine off.
- Come back around 8pm, the guy we talked to said it would be done by 7pm. It’s still in the repair bay. The new guy said all the earlier tire guys left and didn’t tell anyone. He says to check back in an hour, he might have it done.
- 9pm. We went and did a little shopping there for a few things and came back after an hour. Still not done.
- Come back around 10:30am one Sunday morning. Get vehicle and head home – thinking everything is honky-dory.
- Friday afternoon around 3pm. After realization that shit is still wrong, Becky goes in to drop off the spare tire to get fixed. Turns out they also put two different sets of tires on the car – two different widths of tires – those have to be fixed. Leaves car to come back later.
- We come back around 9pm-ish. The four tires on the car are now all the same. However, they couldn’t figure out how to get the spare tire off the car – are you fucking serious?! – and so didn’t do anything. They, of course, lied and said they tried to call me. My caller ID says different, douches. So, I go and take the tire off the car and drop if off in the office. Oh, and they had the audacity to charge me .25 cents to throw the tire away. Never going here again. Ever.
- Come back Sunday afternoon around 3pm to pickup my tire. Everything is just fine and I’m out in less than 10 minutes – there were a few people in front of me.
And that is how I saved about 100 bucks and got a free tire.
Not really worth it with all the trips I made.
