  • What a week

    So this has been one heck of a week.  It all started this time last Saturday.  Sister in law 1 called me because she wanted my wife and I to know that she was at the hospital with her boyfriend because he had horrible pains the night before.  It turned out to blockage in his intestines which could have killed him had they not caught it in time.  He was rushed into emergency surgery to have part of his intestines removed.  That was freaky.

    My wife and I then moved sister in law 2 to her and her fiance’s new place.  After we had finished moving everything we were heading back along highway 44 when these torrential downpours began.  Visibility was low and because it had been so hot that day, combined with the rain, the roads were ultra slick and Sister in Law 2 was driving her dad’s Ford F150 which she was not used to so I began to worry.  Sure enough down the road we see the truck blocking one lane and the shoulder facing west bound on east bound traffic.  I pull over and turn on my warning lights while she straightens out facing completely west bound now.  The truck is driveable but how do you safely turn around a full sized truck on the highway?  I called 911 so the police could help us.  The cops showed up and blocked a lane of traffic allowing her to turn the vehicle around. 

    If all that was not enough I came down with a bug of some sort.  It is making me congested and extremley tired.  WHEW!  So that is why I have not updated in a while.  There has been too much going on and I have been to sick to concentrate so my apologies everybody.  I hope to get back into the swing of things shortly here.

  • Monkey Poo Fight!

    I found today a simple online game where you are a Monkey and you fling your poo at another monkey.  If you hit him with your poo first you win.  If he hits you first then he wins.  Why is this fun you say?  I dunno it just is.  Go to Monkey Poo Fight and just enjoy a simple fun game.

  • Beautiful Art

    Today I bring to you the 12 most powerful women throughout history.  This is the art created to resemble them and it is beautiful.  It is detailed, personal, and amazing.  I was in awe of this site which made me want to share it with you.  I don’t know what else I can tell you because a picture says a thousand words so check it out.  If you were to add to this list then who would be on it?

  • Age of War

    Sorry for the late post everyone.  I am working into a new summer schedule so things are still being shaken out. 

    Today’s link is a fun online game that is addictive to me.  I started it, and could not stop until I beat it ( which I did ) and it was simple enough to be fun with enough strategy to be interesting.  It is called Age of War and is a simple scrolling fighting game where you are defending your base.  Unlike other tames though this one progresses through the ages as you level up and your weapons become more and more complex.  You have to stay on your feet to stay ahead of the enemy but it can be won.  Try it out and let me know if you have a favorite online game.

  • I found this great game through juliepetsorion’s Blog!

  • A picture says a thousand words

    Today’s site showcases 10 people that give men a bad name.  These guys are the type where you can just look at them and know that they are indeed a douchebag.  Seriously I am not sure which one is more rediculous from the 10 popped collars, the old man who does not want to admit he is old, or the guys who fake tan so much they look like oompa loompas.  Check it out at big stupid idiot dot com and let me know if there has ever been someone that you just wanted to tell ” dude, you are not as cool as you think you are.”

  • Chance

    Here is a video I found that I have seen a few times before but I am always enchanted by it.  The video is called Chance and it shows some of the most amazing real life events you will have ever seen.  Amazing sports moments like a basketball sunk from the other side of the court, or a soccer player who gets not one, not two, not even three but four chances at a goal.  It’s not long so watch it and let me know what your reactions are to it.

    Have you ever had a moment in your life that is totally unbelievable and no one would believe you unless you had video footage of it happening?

  • Do you profile?

    Today’s link is an interesting one.  It’s unique in that you are shown a offense at the top such as ” Who was charged with Disorderly Conduct? ” and then shown 5 pictures.  Could you spot by face alone who committed the offense?  I must admit that I run hot and cold on this.  Recently I ran 40% when just running 10 scenarios but other times I might do something closer to 10%.  Do you profile certain people or do sites like this increase profiling?  Try it out at
    pick the perp and let me know how you did.  What did you think about this site and what are your thoughts on profiling?

  • Bad Fads

    Sorry there was not a link yesterday.  We had bad storms and it was too dangerous to be on the computer.  My apologies.  Now onto today’s post.

    Bad Fads…Every generation has them.  It can be music, clothes, collectibles but we are all guilty of them.  Even though they are bad though you can sometimes look back on them with fondness.  Think of Cabbage patch dolls, beanie babies, or Lava Lamps.  Sure they are a bad fad but it does not neccesarily tarnish your view of that object.  I still love my lava lamp and use it as often as I can.  IT’S GREAT!  The Bad Fads Museum has collected this all into one place and will allow you to laugh, cry, or become nostalgic for the bad fads of all generations.  It’s great and fun to just search through.  Check it out!

    What was your favorite or least favorite bad fad?

  • The customer is alwasy right, except when their not.

    I have been reading this site since it was just 7 pages long because it always makes me laugh.  It tells the stories of crazy customers through the eyes of customer service agents.  It’s always amazing how crazy some people are and the things that happen in this mixed up world we live in.  It shows scams, liars, and outright craziness.  If you have ever worked a job that involved dealing with customers then you can definitely relate to the stories on this site.  Not Always Right is a fun site to read and will make you wonder what is wrong with people.

    What’s the craziest customer you have ever dealt with?
