The King’s New Clothes

I work for a software development house. I’ve been at this location for the past six years, and the last time I bought new clothes specifically for work was when I started the job. Six years later I can barely fit into some of those clothes. Then tragically while getting in my Jeep to pick [...]

Revelation: Angry Birds Are Terrorists

I almost fear writting these words, but it occured to me today as I, like perhaps millions before me, was in the process of playing Angry Birds and knocking down some poorly structured pig structures when I realized that the Angry Birds are terrorists. Look at the evidence …

We All Use Lady Soap Now

So today I helped my Father-In-Law take some parts off an old Ford F150 he owns. During the course of torture … er sorry … During the process I got rather hot, tired, bruised, and filthy. When getting cleaned up I realized something that I’ve been ignoring for a while now. Men and women are [...]

Politics

I don’t do politics here. I don’t do politics for two basic reasons: 1) I want people to be entertained and 2) there is just SO much that is asinine about politics that I would end up drowning the blog in meaningless dross. Wait, don’t I do that second one anyway? Regardless, I don’t do [...]

On Turning Forty

Umm … I’m 40 now. Well, 40 and change. And by change I mean almost 41.

Humility

Man I love the way I write. Really, I do. If there was someone that wrote like me consistently, I think I could almost read that crap consistently.

I come to this conclusion because after a few months of relative silence, I’ve come back to the site and I’ve fallen in love with it all over again. Damn I’m good. Well at the very least entertaining.

Fame

If there is a single thing less worthwhile to strive to obtain, I know it not. Fame is the messy by product of doing something well. It should never, ever be a goal. In fact if your main goal in life is to be famous, I seriously think you should not belong in the gene [...]

Dear Mr. Upper Arm, Screw You. Love Joe

So for some reason I was under the impression that the more you exercise the better you felt. Isn’t that what skinny a$$holes have been telling me all my life? Well in case you didn’t know the answer is yes, they are a$$holes. OH! and they said those things too. They also said stuff like [...]

How I Feel Way Too Often

I stumbled upon this while reading the recommended items in my Google Reader. Here’s a tangent for you, “Why does Google Reader think I’m an Atheist?” I think it is all the links my future-flaming-in-Hell-friends send me that makes Google think I’ve broken my bonds with the Creator. Or maybe Google likes to taunt. You [...]

Shins Are For the Weak

Within the past few months I’ve made a seriously bad error in judgment; I started playing racquetball. And I love it. You know who doesn’t love racquetball? My shins. My shins hate the game so much that they furiously complain, sometimes for days at a time, any time I’ve played. Yes and my shins seem [...]
