Recharge

Coming off a 13 day week and slightly into the next, Recharging my mental batteries with this, some of this, a little MacGuyver , Chunk (It's CHUNK!) can't get enough chunk. Great, I just sneezed oin my keyboard...

Still Having Fun...

Just working hard enough not to write about it.

Pictures!

My work computer pooped out, so I took it out back and attacked it with paintballs. It's still usefull...

Didn't get a hole in one on #13, but this has got to be worth something...Kilgor says that in all of our years of golfing there has to be something more bizarre we've seen...

NO CELL PHONES AT GOLF!

...So I did it twice in the same day.

On the way to Kilgor's we stopped at some bar and took a wizz...

This is a picture of me holding a photo of an edited picture with a pirated (literally) logo. *whew*

All Apologies

I've been updating, honest. if you look below this you will see that there have been posts made, it's just Blogger's dumass fault for not working right. I'll try to be a little more on the ball, but I've had a lot on my plate, (as always...)

Live Pirate Action

This aint my world, that's for sure, but they have something I need, and
I'm going to take ir. I'm walking through hobby lobby, looking for
bizarre sizes and styles of masking tape for the hand grenade project.
I wouldn't have expected it to be so crowded this time of day, but it is
a holiday.

Man, fearless, scrapbooking sure is popular!

This place is bigger than home depot.

Do I need any stone colums? I guess not.

Bingo! Found it!

Captain Toad, on the go!

Just Can't Win...

My day guy called in sick yesterday. This was after the fact of my
temporary night guy that the boss recommended I hire quit. Fine. I'll
work open to close for 3 days. It'll suck, but no big deal. So I shaved
my head, lowered my jaw and waited.

I used to try to be nice. I used to care, and be friendly despite how I
felt, because one day I would show the world how much better it is to be
nica rather than petty. That it was wonderful to be friendly instead of
wary. That everyone could get along, no matter what. I could, why not
everyone else?
I'm stubborn, so it took quite a while to wise up.
I never complained about having to work 39 hours in 3 days. Not to my
boss, my friends, or even you. I simply readied myself for the suck.

I drink a lot. I'm not ever sure why. Did I learm it from tv, or my
peers? Do I have some deep loathing of myself, or the world? Do I feel
as if I've been dealt a bad hand, and the only way to fold is to fold?

My boss called me a few hours ago to chew me out. I told a customer
that I couldn't guarentee (sp?) that her order would be ready at 2
o'clock Because it was only me and a delivery guy. She got pissed and
hung up. Then she called his fully staffed store and asked for the same
thing. Of course, no problem was the reply. When she showed up she
started slamming our store and the poor service. I'm actually pretty
jealous that everything in her life is so great that she can complain
about lunch. Since you started reading this, at least 5 people have
died from starvation. Not that I care either, but I know I'm
privilaged. And I wouldn't dare.

I used to care. I used to try, and only want the best for people. But
you cannot ever win. You can only get drunk.

Pirates aren't born, they are made.

B.U.I.

So I was drunk the other night, and I was ordering blank jewel caese from the lowest bidder. Patiently awaiting my 40 new, shiny blank jewel cases, I opened the box a few minutes ago to discover: 10. How could 10 jewel cases cost over 20$? At Wal-Mart they were only 3$. The answer, 100 Disc Dots. (Bottom of the page.) What the hell am I going to do with these?

Sugggestions?

High Speed? BAH!

When the moms first decided to join the new millenium and get high-speed internet, I wasn't allowed to touch her computer. Now, 2 monitors, a graphics card, 1gig of ram and a high-power G.M. job later, I can stroll through the house with my screw gun un-holstered and no one lifts an eyebrow.

Mom wanted to go wireless, so she had a neighbor come over and rig it up for her. The work did not meet my approval, but she wasn't interested in my opinions. She only uses it for email, and I'm on the internet at least 10 hours a week or more. It cut out, was barely faster than dial-up, and sometimes just didn't work. I bitched and moaned, to no avail. finally after 3 days of no internet, she called the neighbor. He came over, disconnected the wireless router, and said he needed a "clip" for the ethernet cable, and he'd have it next week. That was about 5 months ago.

5Mbps was not going to cut it for the captain. That's 50k we got without the router. So I plugged the router back in, power cycled the modem and BAM! A better, unreliable internet. I always thought it was the cordless phones that we use that made it cut out. Makes sense. maybe they "talked" to each other every ohur or so, just to make sure they weren't lonely or whatever. Finally about 2 weeks ago, after getting booted repeatedly from an online video game, I went into the basement to see what was up.

About 50 extra feet of ethernet cable, all bundled up in a tight knot and tied to the ceiling. I don't know what this guy was thinking, using like 150 feet of cat 5 cable. Obviously his dumbass has never heard of attenuation. Mebbe he just didn't want to waste it. So today, when I was at Home Depot getting a part for the toilet at work, I grabbed 50 feet of Ethernet cable and headed home.

I'm very responsible now (HAH!). Because Of my job (I'm not any different). So the Moms helped me drill a bigass hole in her floor and replace her neighbor's crappy do-it-yourselfer cable with a 20$ professional cable.

I'm running at a full 54Mbps, it hasn't cut out YET and the whole internet just feels better!

Thanks, R. and C. !

Yea, so christmas was a long time ago. Do you remember what you did?(I don't.)

Dave's Not Here, Man.

In high school I knew this kid named Dave. I used to beat him up all the time, and I still don't feel bad about it because he always came back for more. I guess he liked the attention, or he's some sado-maso freak. I hope he's a freak, otherwise it's weird.

I digress, however. About 2 years ago there was this show called the Bachelorette. 30 guys, one chick, and a plethora of dates. Ol' Dave made it to about round 3 or so. It had to be rigged, like that episode of Family Guy. Not that he didn't look like a total dork, but he did look exactly like a total dork. He tried to be smooth as he left the show, and he said something or other, but it didn't look that good on camers. But shit, man. I know a reality superstar. How do I know he is a SUPERSTAR?

Last night after golf I went over to Metal J and Christ's house, where we planted a tree, played Uno (Please note the pictures of the cards. this is not my mother's Uno!) and learned about Bogs and Perfect Corpses. We also watched Fear Factor, where we agreed that Joe Rogan is not only a tool, but funny as hell and reeeaaaallly sick of Fear Factor.

Okay, I lied. Dave was actually on Average joe, and not The Bachelorette. This is a real time update, but now it's history. FUTURE PEOPLE!

Right, another digression. Fear Factor was "Freaks Vs. Geeks" Pretty lame, as were the contestants. I got a side shot of a guy with a 'fro bigger than metal J's.
"Holy Cow! I know him! That's DAVE!" I exclaimed. you can tell I exclaimed it, because I used exclamation marks. Duh.

It was indeed Dave, he's on another reality show. I screamed "He'll never be able to do any stunts! His arms are too weak to hold stuff!"

Twice in a row, my supernatural assumptions were correct. Bagged out in the first round, because he couldn't hold up a chick with his arms for 30 seconds. Yea, he was upside down, but so what?

Yea, so I'm a pirate captain and all, which is cool but doesn't pay well, and Dave is a Reality TV SUPERSTAR!

Cheers, Dave.

Crappy Bio Dave probably [had to] write himself.

Fan Page? Another crappy blog.

Here's interview that I only scanned half of.

IMDB huh? This is where I can tell I'm older than him.

Oh, and speaking of Kimba's photo, here's a secret: Kimba cropped herself out of the photo because she didn't like how she looked. And she did it at the exact center of her face. I would have used photoshop to make me disappear,but that's up to the discretion(sp?) of the photographer. You're are a Milf too, baby. Mmmmm.

I Prefer "Captain Toad"

My pirate name is:

Dread Pirate Bonney

Like the famous Dread Pirate Roberts, you have a keen head for how to make a profit. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate's life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr!

Get your own pirate name from fidius.org.
