Are you Ready for Some Football?

Go Rebs!!!!
Go #25!!!

Yeah, I am biased, but hey - I have a right!

The South will Rise Again!!!

Good Luck to Both Teams!!!!

I do not really mean that, but I feel bad for our cross town rivals, knowing they are most likely going to get an ass whooping tonight in their own house.

Peyton PHlaCe...

This week I learned...

  • SteroidMan (so named because, well, you can figure it out) was caught earlier this month in a rather compromising position with an unnamed (not so much to protect the innocent, but because I have no clue) female coworker in the training auditorium.
  • Peyton PHlaCe (SteroidMan and his female cohort's place of employment - which happens to be mine as well) is not as understanding of such compromising positions as the White House.
  • SteroidMan and SMGirl (so named because... yeah) are no longer employed at Peyton PHlaCe.

I am privy to knowledge of quite a lot that goes on at Peyton PHlaCe because, well, I work there and am not deaf and dumb. So I feel a little bad for SMGirl.
  • I mean, I would do him, given the opportunity. OK, I hope I would be a little more discreet and not get caught in the auditorium for God's sake, but still...I am pretty sure it was consensual between two adults, neither of whom are otherwise attached...
  • Peyton PHlaCe is pushing their sense and simplicity branding...what is more sensual and simpler than doing it right where you happen to be? As SWG pointed out in his contribution to our list of possible excuses for doing it in the auditorium...watch for the future post...

And NOOOO...I am not SMGirl.

Ring my bell...:)

A lonely woman, aged 70, decided that it was time to get married. She put an ad in the local paper that read:

  • HUSBAND WANTED!
  • MUST BE IN MY AGE GROUP (70's),
  • MUST NOT BEAT ME,
  • MUST NOT RUN AROUND ON ME,
  • AND MUST STILL BE GOOD IN BED!
  • ALL APPLICANTS PLEASE APPLY IN PERSON.

On the second day she heard the doorbell. Much to her dismay, she opened the door to see a gray-haired gentleman with no arms or legs sitting in a wheelchair.

The old woman said, "You're not really asking me to consider you, are you? Just look at you ... you have no legs!" The old man smiled, "Therefore I cannot run around on you!"


She snorted. "You don't have any hands either!" Again the old man smiled, "Nor can I beat you!"

She raised an eyebrow and gazed intently. "Are you still good in bed?" With that, the old gentleman leaned back, beamed a big broad smile and said, "I rang the doorbell, didn't I?"

Today I learned...


There are jobs out there a lot worse than mine...
So...for today...
I will try harder not complain about my job.
I will try not to whine or express my personal disdain to my associates, affiliates or supervisor.
Today (and maybe even tomorrow)...
I will be thankful for every irritation, distraction, and challenge.

Today's lesson...proud to be an American I am!!!


Unfortunately...

  • If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you would have $49.00 today.
  • If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you would have $33.00 today.
  • If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you would have $0.00 today.

But....
  • If you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, you would have received $214.00.
Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle.
It is called the 401-Keg.

Other related findings...
  • A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year.
  • Another study found that Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.
That means that, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon!

And in honor of this being my 100th post on this blog, let's all join in...

100 Bottles of beer on the wall, 100 bottles of beer...


Thoughts for the day...(not all mine, btw)

Today I learned...

Why bicycle shorts are usually black....
And hardly ever red....
Thanks J...I needed a good laugh....

Not Blonde...Just Dizzy...

So I have been feeling like crap the past couple of months...tired, cranky, and dizzy...

The tired and cranky I can put up with as long as it does not get too bad...or coupled with dizzy...

The dizzy part made me decide I better make the dreaded visit to the doc. Don't want to end up in the hospital again 3 pints low because I waited too long...

Well, I feel better just knowing...
Blood count is fine - but I'm sooo tired...
Thyroid is fine - damn, can't use that excuse for the weight gain...
I really am dizzy - I was not imagining it...I am suffering (yeah, that's right) from vertigo!

What to do, doc?
Keep taking your happy pills, cranky lady, I'll tell you when to stop or slow down...being cranky takes a lot out of you...and you wonder why you are tired...
No... your bp is not low enough for you to go off the meds....no more self-diagnosis...
Do these exercizes for the vertigo; a common side effect is dizziness with lots of nausea. When you can do them without getting dizzy, you are cured...

You're kidding, right? you want me to make myself dizzy to cure myself of the dizziness...
Like that's gonna happen...
Do you not understand that I do not like the dizzy feeling?
And maybe I forgot to mention my thoughts on nausea...
...9 months of that is the reason I stopped having kids!

Did I mention that I am feeling old, too? Doc says that is because I am...quit being a baby about it....(a baby about being old?...hmmm...)

Can I at least get a couple days off work? to sleep? please?

Message of the Day:

Every sixty seconds you spend angry, upset or mad,
is a full minute of happiness you'll never get back.
Life is short...
Break the rules...
Forgive quickly...
Kiss slowly...
Love truly...
Laugh uncontrollably...
And never regret anything that made you smile.

Life may not be the party we hoped for...
but while we're here we should dance...
or at least make a half-assed attempt!

At least this kid is not on the floor behind the table :)

I bet his butt is not as...ok, we won't go there...:)

Not in this lifetime...

I happened on this post while I was stumbling...
Michael Phelps - More bad ass than Chuck Norris?

Uh...not in this lifetime...I mean, I do respect Michael Phelps, but there is NO comparison...
