OK Seven, yes I threw it down, and you picked it up and ran with it. First off, we all know this is light hearted fun, and if you (the reader) take it too seriously, then you need to re-examine your life. Secondly, Seven is one of my dearest friends, whom I love deeply, she is a wonderful (and sexy) woman. I would have to say that I fall into the freak category, and am very proud of it. :-) With that being said, I now send you back to the news room!

WARNING: The following rambling contains sexual content and should not be read by minors!
Seven began a rant about everything that's wrong with dating and men today, which prompted me to reply with the simple statement: "98% of men only have one thing on their mind when they go on a date, am I going to get laid. The other 2% are liars." I know, there will be a backlash on this, but the truth hurts, doesn't it. The problem is genetics. Men in general (there are exceptions), are designed to reproduce... many times. Society has evolved to where we control how many offspring we have, but the drive is still there. Whether it be intercourse or oral satisfaction, we need the release. Women want "relationships" more than the one night stand, men don't care as long as they get the release. Don't think this is a one sided rant either, women really don't know how to satisfy their man, unless they have been with him for some time. Where is all of this leading, to some good information. If you are not offended by sexual information, then choose your poison, other wise GO AWAY! WOMEN : MEN

Everything is right with the world again, or as close as it gets. You ask me what I'm talking about. The number one party band is alive and well ..... The B-52's have a new party disc coming out next week. March 25th is the release date for FUNPLEX. "It's loud, sexy rock and roll, with the beat pumped up to hot pink," says guitarist Keith Strickland. One great groove. Give Pump, Funplex, and Too Much To Think About an extra listen. Check It Out!
Update: OK, after listening to this CD 3 times all the way through (not back to back of course), I would have to say it becomes more infectious with each listen. For those old enough to remember the quirky beginning, we just have one big question - Fred, why did it take 16 years for a new record? We missed you kids and it's been too long since the last party.

Well, the gopher wood came in handy this week. Tuesday, we received all the rain the world was supposed to get.... right here. No real comments, I think the picture says it all. This used to be a road with a low water slab to cross the creek.

It's been a bit, I've just had too much on my plate to sit down for a few and write. I just finished reading an article about gun control on msnbc.com and the Supreme Court is taking a look at the second amendment. "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed." They are going to be deciding whether or not this means people can keep guns or if they can only keep guns if they belong to some sort of "militia." We're treading on some serious issues here and I would hate to be in their shoes. I believe we should not question what has been interpreted as the law since the beginning. It seems every day the courts are chiseling away at our rights as defined in the constitution. One day in the not so distant future our constitution will be just a piece of paper that people talk about as a "grand idea" once upon a time.

Well, day two of a massive migraine. I've never had one this bad, usually a couple of aspirin takes care of it, but last night I took aspirin, drank some kind of wine cooler thing, took a shower, nothing worked. I figured a good nights sleep would kick it, but I got up this morning with it still. I'm leaning toward the weather and stress, but who knows. If I can't kick it soon, I'll raid the medicine stash and see what will knock me out.

I really like living out in the country. There's nothing better than being able to do what you want, when you want, and no one to give you any crap about it. If I want to walk around outside in the buff, I can, I generally don't, but it's nice to know that if I wanted to I could. The only drawback is that when bad weather hits, it always causes us to lose power. We had around 6 inches of snow between last night and this morning, and the possibility of a bit more today. Our electricity has been flickering since around 7 this morning and it finally went completely off around 8:30. So I did the usual thing and called the number..... "we have crews out trying to restore power now and the estimated time to restore your power is 6:00." That's just bullshit. This happens every time, and it just irritates me. They constantly come through and cut trees and stuff to make sure the lines are clear, then we get snow and we lose power anyway. If they used decent equipment, this wouldn't happen. I just don't understand it, we pay an arm and a leg for electricity, and they can't afford to put the equipment in place to prevent this kind of crap. Anyway, that's my rant for today, or at least this morning.
Update: They are now saying 8:00 Saturday night before we get electricity. We told them we had medical equipment (which is true), and a heart patient (also true), they said, call 911. Like that's going to do anything to keep us warm. Dumbasses!
Updated Update: Well, the power came back on around 11:30, I was holding my breath hoping it stayed on. Thankfully it did. Now I just have to re-warm the house. :-(

Everyone has their own personality, their own quirks, their own way of dealing with people and issues. My particular quirk is laughter, and subtle humor. Once I die, people will say, "that'll shut him up." My concern of late is that maybe I'm going a bit too far at times. I have a few select special female friends, whom I talk to or messenger with that I might say, "ok, thank you sweetheart." I just wonder if this is still acceptable behavior in this day and time. It's not meant as a derogatory statement, it's just my way of putting a smile on their face, whether I can see it at the moment or not. Life is too serious, especially right now with all the economic trouble the US is facing to be as serious as everyone else. If I can put a smile on someone's face for even a short period of time, it makes them feel better and it makes me feel great. I suppose at some point I will either grow out of it, or be chastised for it, but until then ...... let it snow.

Someone explain to me when it became North American ape's position to sit and take whatever the rest of the world dictates? I am not talking about ape killing ape, I am talking about apes from below our border expecting everything to be bilingual, and if that's not bad enough, there are certain apes which believe we should also incorporate "slang" into broadcasts. I am of the belief that if you cannot speak English, and you live in this district, then you need to learn it. We do not go to the district of Russia and expect them to learn English, they expect us to learn Russian. Why should other districts migrate here and expect us to learn theirs. We have the only district that all other apes want to come to, and we don't expect much from them, but for them to demand we learn their speak is detrimental to the rest of ape. If you move to our district, please try your best to learn the language, we do not tell you how to pray, how to work, eat, sleep, or anything else. Yes, English is hard, but you can learn it.
