Not A Good Week To Be Famous

They say these things always come in three's. Let me see first it was Ed McMan (spelling?) then Farrah, then Jacko.

Now we have Billy Mays Hays. He was really not a celeb in my book, but he was on TV. He's dead. I wonder who the other 2 are gonna be?

I would like to comment on Jacko passing though. He was a strange dude, but I liked a few of his songs.

He was only 50. People keep comparing him to Elvis, I think that's BS. In no way would he ever to be able to fill the Kings shoes.

Elvis was a pioneer, enough said. MJ just rode the path that Elvis paved in my oppinion. Elvis opened the door so to speak for entertainers to come decades after him. Micheal Jackson will never come anywhere near the legacy that Elvis has established.

MJ did sing some good songs though. I will give him that.

Rest In Peace all you dead celebs. You guys had a good run.

This made me smile



It's been awhile. Figured I would come back with something funny. Look at the pic up above. Doesn't that car look fucking hilarious!!!

Jesus, that thing looks stupid!! I can't believe how stupid and mindless these kids are now-a-days. You get some stupid celebrity, singer, etc..... glorify something in a video or on TV or something and these stupid kids lap the shit up and become mindless followers. LOL, damn this is funny. Who cares if your car looks fucking hilarious, if so an so says that it's cool....It's gotta be cool, right?

Ha, ha, ha, what a fucking tard!!!!! Ha, ha.

I pulled that pic from an add on Craigslist, the guy that owns this piece of crap is asking 9000 soemthing for it.

Boy, that guy has balls. He's gotta have them, it must take massive balls in order to get up the courage to drive that stupid looking car around town....hahaha!!!

I still can't get over it, that fucking car looks ridiculous!!!! Hahaha, even the puke colored paint looks bad, oh man. I can't stop myself.....hehehehe. Seeing this stupid looking thing really brightened my day!!!!

Hahahahahaha. Man the dude that owns this has gotta be brain dead!!!!

I'm Building An Ark

Shit, when is it going to stop raining? It has been raining/overcast now for 10 days straight. Fuck, this shit is getting on my nerves, not to mention boosting the grass. We have had a few times during this 10 day period that it has not rained, but it has been overcast like a mother fucker. The sun has come out a few times, but not that often.

I went and opened up the pool last week. With all this rain we been having, I should have waited a couple more weeks, oh well. I installed a new pump and hoses and got this synthetic material for the filter instead of sand. This stuff is supposed to work alot better than sand, and lasts for 7 years. The pool was very dirty. I swear there was a least a million leaves in the fucker. The cover I had on it last winter was kinda beat up, but sheesh, the water looked like I didn't have it covered at all!

There was a bunch of shit on the bottom. I had some pro-pool guys come out to assess my situation. It was not as bad as I thought. They cleaned the thing up. Now, I'm just waiting for this fucking weather to break so I can use it.

The lady went out and got some trees and plants and crap for the yard. I'm having the lawn guy plant those. I ain't dealing with that shit. I did build a workbench in my garage, after I finished I took a step back and looked at it. It does resemble a bar....hehe, workbench/bar. That will work for me.

Well, the lady is yelling at me, it must be supper time.

Still A Smoker

The gum didn't work. I still smoke. Damn!!! The gum did work for about 24 hours, I think I am just not ready to quit yet. Who the fuck knows.

I went out and got a riding mower, spent a little change on a John Deere. Well, that fucker didn't work either. My yard is mostly hill, I tried mowing and it worked great on my flat areas, on the hill it sucked. I almost tipped over 3 times. Had 3 wheels in the air once. I caught myself, if my lady would have been in the same situation, it woould have come down on top of her. So, the mower is out. I have informed my lawn guy that I will be retaining his services this year as well. He told me that he was wondering how that mower was gonna do on my hill. He does a great job, he uses a big commercial mower. Maybe next year I'll drop some coin and buy a big mower like he has.

One good thing has transpired out of this though, I now have a 65 inch high def. flat screen in the living room. I took the mower money and got that.

Now to say that High def is better than regular TV is an understatement. This shit rocks!! I watched the NBA playoffs last night Boston at Chicago, all I can say is WOW!! There is no comparison. Also picked up a Blu Ray player. I don't know about these things. The player I got "up converts" regular DVD's. I have watched a couple Blu Ray movies and really there aint no difference. I did buy Top Gun on Blu Ray, and that was choice. With the detail from Blu Ray it looked like a different movie. As far as Blu Ray discs go, I think I will not be buying new movies that are released on them, but older movies that are converted to Blu Ray might be the way to go.

I took my 36 inch tube TV and put it in the basement. It's fucking awsome. I now have the basement music room done. I just need to get a few more shelves for the CD's and records I have, but that's it. I downed a few a couple nights ago and watched a few concerts I have on DVD. Had a great time. I need to get my ass up north and get my other speakers. Then it will be complete.

Ah yesss........the house will shake. LOL.

Marley & Me

I watched this movie. I was good....up to a point. As I watched this flick, I could not help but relate to some of the things this pooch did. I have a Lab/Aussie Shepard mix. He is more Lab than anything though. Just bigger than a typical Lab.

This movie was fun to watch. I could understand alot of what went on. My girl and me almost broke up over Max (our dog) so this movie kind of hit home with me.

The way Marley would screw up, and just look up into his owners eyes, the way dogs do. You can see the unconditional love there. You just can't scold them. I went through the same thing with my dog, but, I scolded, yelled, etc....it worked. Now, my dog is no angel, he is pretty well behaved, he sometimes has an incident.

Like the time I was watching TV and having a pizza. Now, Max knows he is not alowed on the table. I got up to refill my soda, I had already eaten 2 slices. I came back and there were only 2 slices left. My dam dog ate my pizza. I was pissed. I yelled, screamed, chased him around the apt. Scared the living shit out him actually, and it worked. He has not been on table since. Looking back, I can't really blame him. That was a very big temptation for him, he could not resist.

Now, when Max screws up, he bows his head and stares at the floor. I don't have to yell at him or anything. Just looking at him does the trick, he knows he did something bad. He's a good dog. He does have his little transgressions every now and then but that is to be expected, we never formally trained him. It was just the lady an myself, we never sent him to obedience school or anything. I think we did a pretty good job.

One thing we did not do was train him to be a guard dog. He just turned out that way. Kinda like the junkyard dogs you always hear about, but never see in real life. If you have never heard of these kinds of dogs, I will explain. See, junkyards are huge and usually surrounded by a fence. Before video and all these electronic alarms and such, owners of these junkyards would close the gates at night and let these dogs roam. These dogs are very territorial. If a stranger would happen to enter the property, these dogs would attack, period, and would not stop. My dog is like that in his territory (the house). I have tested this on several occasions. My dog is not a lovable friendly dog, he is very viscious, and that I think is a good thing. If we have company or somebody over we put him in a bedroom or somewhere. Sure, he goes nuts barking, but that's it. I work mids and we live in the country. I feel better at work knowing that nobody will go into my house for any reason without my ladies permission. The dog would tear them apart. My lady feels alot safer out there at night also. If somebody were to try and break into the house and rob us, he better try when we are at home, to control the dog, if not the guy would get mauled.

The big problem I had with Marley and Me was the ending. The ending SUCKED!!!!! I do understand no dog lives forever, but , shit.... why the fuck did the asshole make us sit through Marley's death?!!! Fuck that!!! I felt like shit afterwards. Glad I did'nt watch it with the lady, she would have thought I was a big pussy after seeing my reaction to the end of that flick.

I went out and got my dog an ice cream cone. I love my dog.

Trying To Quit

I went out and picked up some nicotine gum. Now, I tried this shit out about 15 years ago and it didn't work. It tasted like shit as well. This new stuff seems to be doing the trick so far, it also don't taste that bad. I am very hopefull. Fucking smokes cost and arm and a leg now. The fuckers also raised the taxes on booze. I can quit smoking I think, I know I can't do without my beer. The real test will be when I have a few, probably tomorrow. That's the start of my weekend. I read somewhere it will take my body 15 years to return to the state that it was before I started. I have been smoking for about 20 years now. I know this is in my head, but, I do feel like I have a little more energy. I don't think I will start feeling anything major for a few weeks. I think the little energy burst I have going is due to trying to meet my goals, and completing them. I can't believe it. If I go 24 hours without a cig, that would be the first time in 20 years that I have not had a cig for that long. I am going to try very hard to get past this. I don't want to be a slave to these fuckers anymore.

Burned Out

Well the lady will be back in a few days. I go to pick her up from the bus station on Friday. She does not like flying, so she takes the bus. I would rather drive/fly. Screw Greyhound. I would have drove her, but did not want to waste my vacation time. I plan on taking her on a cruise this winter maybe, or Disneyworld. I have always wanted to go see Disneyworld. I'm not sure what we are going to do this winter. I do know tat we are going on a "real" vacation. Something we both have never done. Maybe Vagas, hehe, I'm all over the board on this one. I really don't know where we are going. I do know that we are staying in the country.

I'm pretty burned out. Been doing alot of drinking in the basement. I went out and purchased new monitors for both of us. Got a good deal on 2 twenty inch flat panel ones for 148 bucks each. This monitor is choice. I did not want to buy anything that would encourage my ladies computer use, but I broke down. I wanted one, and didn't want her feeling left out, so it's a surprise for her when she returns. I think she will like it.

We are both going to go and pick out a riding lawn mower probably next week. I'm waiting for her because she is the one that is going to be using it. I don't do yard work....hehe. I'm a lazy ass. We need one, the yard is huge, and the lawn guy does do a good job, but charges 45 bucks each time he mows. That can get pretty expensive if we get alot of rain like we have been getting.

I'm still planning on making my bar, into a karoke bar. Just need to pick up the equipment. Well i'm gonna close this now. I'm getting kinda hungry, I may go get some KFC, I don't feel like cooking.
