Wait a second!

I thought we defeated the Taliban years ago. Isn't Afghanistan a peaceful, Coca-Cola loving democray now? What gives?

Another Thing I Learned

This obesity epidemic is going a bit too far. I saw plenty of young girls/women Saturday night who were wearing clothes that showed off some of their belly. I would say that, at best, 1 out of 5 should have been dressed like that. Not pretty.

Things learned this weekend

Well, I sure did learn a lot this weekend. In no particular order:

• If I park in the Kellog ramp after an Xcel event I'll probably sit in my van for 20 minutes before even turning it on.
  
• It's amazing what kind of response you can get (as a rock god, of course) by merely remembering where you are. Adam Levine: "St. Paul, Minnesota!" (not "Hello, St. Paul!" or "How are you doing St. Paul?" All he did was name the place.) Crowd: [goes nuts]. "He knows where he is!" Swoon.
• If the line to get into a restaurant stretches into their parking lot, it is by definition a good restaurant.
• Napoleon Dynamite was entertaining, but not "brilliant", "groundbreaking" or "scatological." Klund rating: 72.
  
• Benefit number 47 of being married to a dentist: When you get a salmon bone stuck into your tonsils, your spouse has the tools to easily remove it. (and yes, I feel like a complete idiot for not getting photographic evidence)
• Those bastards at Yahoo! have Cossetta's at the wrong place. Or at least at a location that they occupied probably 50 years ago.
• Pope Benedict XVI prayed not to be elected Pope. I'm sure prayer has its place, but don't you think a well-placed "If elected I will not serve" speech would have been more effective?
• It's sad what I consider learning a lot.
  

Looks like someone is already blogging for Mean Mr. Mustard

Ron's Apartment: Penguicon - Day 1 - part 2

Yippee for you

I really wish that I brought my digital camera with me everywhere, because then I would have been able to provide a picture instead of describing what I saw today. Everyone has seen the bumber stickers that proclaim "My child is an honor roll student at Dumbsville High", or some such nonsense. Apparently there are also bumber stickers for stupid kids. A minivan that I saw today had a sticker which proclaimed, "My child is a Terrific Kid at [some school I can't remember]." Wow. Terrific, huh? That's great.

What a joke

It's a complete and utter outrage that Greg Biffle is ranked number 2. I am deeply hurt and offended.

My high score was 61

But I'm sure that can be topped.

Yikes!

I haven't blogged in 8 days! If I'm not careful I'll be as bad as Mean Mr. Mustard!

Now for Something Completely Different

A Poem:

You're flashing rain ... pouring, rolling.

I'm comin' on across a young sky.

My lightening's only a hurricane.

You're like the thunder, but I'm gonna die.

(Words taken from the first verse of AC/DC's "Hells Bells", then rearranged to my satisfaction. Feel free to play this game at home.)

Holy Crap!

I just realized something:

• Koleman - Name L OK
• Elias - Sail, E
• Milena - An Eli M
• Kelson - No slek

Dear god, what does this portend?

Hey kids! Look!

Santa is dead!

What the hell

do I post on April Fools Day to a blog that is already all lies? The
truth? OK, Kelson just crapped his pants. April Fools! Maybe.
