Feb. 14th, 2006 07:15 pm I don't know what the VD grinch is but I am him.

Short Rant:

Valentine's day has never really made sense to me. I think it is a lightly shielded comercial ploy to get people to buy chocolate, flowers and a bunch of other heart shaped crap to prove they love their partner. I say I love you every day to the people I love and I will be damned if I am going to give in to the hallmark moment. OK rant over.

I am sad to say that he died yesterday. He was one of the greatest male soul artist. If you don't know who he is think about Mustang Sally.

Jan. 18th, 2006 02:47 pm I have sunk to a new low

We went to a thrift store here in atlanta to see if we could find some good pieces of glass for me to use in a mosaic that I want to do. Instead

rattan sofa and chair with ottoman $125
Area rug for living room $20
Scarf for mom $2.50
Desk chair for mom $5.99
Two end tables for the living room $12.99 each
Getting yelled at by a jerk and his thugs that work there for having attitude because I said "It will take longer for us to move the vehicle at this point than it will take to explain what we are doing here" and getting threatened that they are going to "whoop yer ass". PRICELESS

Even more priceless we were 86ed from the Thrift Store which I am sure is far worse than getting 86ed from the worst dive bar I have ever graced.

The MOST PRICELESS.... they were so mad they forgot to charge for the end tables and even loaded them for us!!!! muhahahaha

The three of us went two stepping tonight. It was a lot of fun but I will be a bit self concious until I practice a bit more I think we were the only three that had not been before. anyhow I am going to try to make a link to the pic.

Today we waited overtime for the cable guy but we now have internet, phone and tv for the same price we were paying for internet and phone and it is faster internet to boot.

Look, I waited this long to post anything about this because I was not sure how to express what I feel without sounding like an ass. The conclusion I came to is that I want to remember Jeff but don't care if I sound like an ass to you all. If you know me well you will understand what I am saying and if not then you will probably jump to a conclusion that is in fact incorrect most probably.

I have chatted with Jeff online for years. We never met in person although there was an interest in doing so. A few months ago I took Jeff off my lj friends list. I did not do this because he was bad, boring, or posted too many big pics without cuts. I did that because he made a choice not to use live journal in a dramatic goodbye cruel journal kind of way. I am not real big on fishing...

Jeff and I continued to chat though obviously when he began his health battle I was left out of the circle not by choice but by neccessity. I followed his illness closely via castro.

That all being said I will miss you Jeff. You fought an evil war never losing your bravery. I will not cry for you however. My tears are for myself and those that will also miss you. My spiritual beliefs are such that I believe that this was the plan from the begining and simply your destiny is complete for this phase of your life. I will remember you fondly but not sadly as your passing was not in vein nor is anyones.

Blessed Be

A farmer went out one day and bought a brand new stud rooster for his chicken coop.

The new rooster struts over to the old rooster and says, "OK old fart, time for you to retire."

The old rooster replies, "Come on, surely you cannot handle ALL of these chickens. Look what it has done to me. Can't you just let me have the two old hens over in the corner?"

The young rooster says, "Beat it: You are washed up and I am taking over."

The old rooster says, "I tell you what, young stud. I will race you around the farmhouse. Whoever wins gets the exclusive domain over the entire chicken coop."

The young rooster laughs. "You know you don't stand a chance, old man. So, just to be fair, I will give you a head start."

The old rooster takes off running.

About 15 seconds later the young rooster takes off running after him.

They round the front porch of the farmhouse and the young rooster has closed the gap.

He is only about 5 feet behind the old rooster and gaining fast.

The farmer, meanwhile, is sitting in his usual spot on the front porch when he sees the roosters running by.

He grabs his shotgun and - BOOM he blows the young rooster to bits.

The farmer sadly shakes his head and says, "Darn ..... third gay rooster I bought this month."

Moral of this story ....



Don't mess with the OLD FARTS - age, skill, and treachery will always overcome youth and arrogance!

Dec. 14th, 2005 11:54 am cant believe this!

ATLANTA -- Transit police handcuffed and issued a citation to a man who sold a subway token worth one dollar and 75 cents to another man who was having trouble with a token machine.

A spokeswoman for the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority -- Jocelyn Baker -- said today that an officer spotted 42-year-old Donald Pirone selling the token on November 30th inside the station at West End. She says the officer could have given the man a warning and sent him on his way.

But Baker says the officer decided to handcuff Pirone and give him a citation for the misdemeanor offense because a 1992 state law prohibits passengers from selling tokens.

Baker acknowledged that Pirone sold the token at face value and did NOT make a profit. But she says the law is the law.

As for Pirone being handcuffed, Baker says the officer felt that was necessary.

Pirone tells WSB Radio he was trying to help a fellow passenger and that he did NOT ask the man for money. In his words, "I guess out of his generosity, he gave me the money for it."

I am outraged by the pity I am hearing about and reading about here on live journal about the poor tookie williams murder. That SOB took at least four lives that we know of and probably ordered the deaths of thousands. He started a street gang that has collectively murdered thousands more. He goes to prison knowing the penalty is death by lethal injection (a much nicer way to die than by stabbing or shooting on the street I might add) and when the deed is finally done people pity him? I realize that he did find god and write a couple of childrens books telling people don't do what I did but that hardly made the families of his victims say "Now my son's death has been avenged and I feel better at christmas knowing tookie is now an author and respected" Come on folks! I not only think the death penalty should be enforced with a vengance I think it should be done in the same fashion it was committed. They should have let that bastard out on the street and hunted him down like the animal he was. I have plenty of friends that grew up in poor, abusive, ghetto type neighborhoods and they did not kill someone purposely. Fuck I hate bleeding hearts when it comes to this.

I know I have not been making serious posts lately so here goes...

I got the local job and should start this week. Basically I am working a jobber for those that know what that is. For those who don't I basically drive a tanker and go fill up other trucks while they are sitting in truckstops or terminals. The pay is a great deal better than I expected and I am thrilled about that.

[info]mongrol got a great job and he started today.

[info]crack will probably start at the same place I am at.

The truck is sold and I am outta there with swift.

Life is great and things are going really well around the house.

We are expecting my kid [info]dads_lil_dreamr will be here in a few days and we are really excited about that.

We got my mom [info]sandijo a new doo and color a little bolder and funner we think.

Dec. 12th, 2005 04:26 pm The goose in my life

Leave a comment

Dec. 12th, 2005 04:06 pm A post about a goose and a bubble

There was once a goose trapped in a bubble. It was a lot like the boy in the plastic bubble except it was a goose in a human bubble. The bubble swallowed the goose and trapped it and the goose spent a lot of time biting the bubble. finally the goose not being too wise at the time popped the bubble. The goose was then sad and confused and went off to mark itself then tried to hang out with lizards but neiter were good for the goose. Eventually the bubble healed and found the goose again. Instead of swallowing the goose this time the bubble just floated along with the goose as it waddled through life. Now the goose and the bubble are more at peace and get along great. There is hope if you are patient and nice, That is the moral of the story!

Only specific members of my studio audience will get this post. If you don't get it don't stess If I had to explain you would say it was not worth the time. But for those that do you will note that I used the word goose 11 times!

Dec. 7th, 2005 05:17 pm A rare find

I think this about sums up how I feel about demopublicans and republicrats

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted to him, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am!" The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, "You're in a hot air balloon approximately 30 feet above sea level. You are 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude." She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican.""I am," replied the man. "How did you guess?" "Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me." The man smiled and responded, "You must be a Democrat." "I am," replied the balloonist. "How did you know?" "Well" said the man, "You don't know where you are or where you're going. You've risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You've made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect ME to solve your problem. You're in EXACTLY the same position you were in before we met, but somehow, now it's MY fault."

Dec. 3rd, 2005 06:22 pm Turbo blessings

So the turbo went out on the truck or so I thought but the shop said that it was the ecg valve. so they replaced it while I was on my three days off at home. I waited till friday to go out because I was waiting on a new student (the last one had to go when I woke up with him trying to make a u turn in downtown kansas city). So friday I meet up with the student and he seems like he knows what reality is and what to expect so I was happy about that. We get a load from home to Tampa and then on to CA. But Nooooooooo! We get three minutes into the trip and smoke and no power. Taking it back to the shop I say it is exhibiting the same symptoms as it was when I brought it in and they say "It's probably the turbo" Dammit to hell did I not tell them that already? So the bottom line is that it is in the shop till at least monday. The good news is that I get more days at home with C, mongrel and Mom.

Mongrel got a job which is a real releif, Our financial issues will soon be over and things will be back to normal in that department

Today I decided my moms hair has been the same for far too long so we dyed it burgundy and tomorrow she is going to get a whole new style I am thinking spiked and wild. While we were at it I decided the poodle needed a new do too so I gave her a burgundy streak.

I am so happy Home life is just simply awesome and life is good.

Current Mood: excited
