No comment please.
It is all about the comments. Karl threatened to kill a dog. I pleaded for everyone to use my blog as a forum, allowing all to express thoughts in a thread of ideas… but it was all about the comments. BTW, Kevin was the only one to answer the question, what is your favourite George Harrison song. So you blog “readers” who check-in twice a day to see if anyone has updated, or sister’s who comment on cousin’s blogs before their very own brother’s, I don’t want your comments, I don’t need your comments!!! From this day forward the less comments I get the more I will know that it means you readers like me… you really really like me. So I will continue to satisfy your addiction. Didn’t Karl ask me for something worth looking at? Sorry I had to cut and paste these.

01/26/2007 Took a (2006) vacation day, three and one half days left. Didn’t do much. Nothing wrong with taking a day off to do… nothing. Slept in …a little. Was able to raise my head and wish John good luck. He was writing his last exam today. Got up, took a shit. Watched an episode of The Office that I missed last week, the one where Dwight Schrute returns to his job at Dunder Mifflin. Finished 284 out of 3340 entrants in an on-line poker tournament and won 80.16 chips. Ate two (four sides) of english muffin with peanut butter and got my laundry together. (I didn’t get to go to the laundromat on my regular Wednesday night because John and I were at the James St Armoury… but that’s a whole other blog.) I’m heading back soon to fold my clothes. Good for another week. Probably do the dishes when I get back but want to be careful and not work harder then when I’m actually at work. It’s a vacation day!! More then likely I’ll cook up an afternoon snoooooooooooze. Nothing wrong with that vacation!!! I love my sleep. I could get used to these four-day workweeks. I can survive on less money a month and still live comfortable. Enjoy your somewhat shorter weekend… and for God sake don’t forget your hat and mittens, it’s a head numbing, snot freezing, cold out there.

Have you seen this, this “heat-ray gun”…thingy?

US Military claims its harmless, it projects an invisible high energy beam that produces a sudden burning feeling. “…non-lethal way of making enemies surrender their weapons.” Yeah!! Lets fry them until they surrender!! You know the cops will be using these “Heat-Ray Guns” on the public at the next LA Riot or intimidating cult society, or gospel congregation, …as soon as the war is over. Maybe let Tony Blair play with it during the next world cup of soccer. Let me make a bold prediction; we will see these Heat-Ray Guns used on the US public in the next ten years... maybe sooner. But they’ll have a catchier name. Do you know you can purchase multi-coloured stun guns in the States now? Accessorize your next crowded event. Gees when I put it that way it sounds like it would be handy in the mall at Christmas time. I’ll create the Candy Cane Cleaner (don’t want to harshly call it a Stun Gun). The commercial will feature an old lady leaving a clean trail of helpless shoppers as she quickly makes it to the front of the cashier line, just as she conveniently disguises the “CCC” as a lovely broach for the festive season. I could sell them on E-bay and become a millionaire. Ahhh! The all American dream!!
I always thought a heat-ray gun should look like this.

Earlier I mentioned “…as soon as the war is over.” Does any one else see the irony in that statement? Or is it an oxymoron? Am I the only nerd that watched the State of the Union Address the other night? Is Bush going to guarantee that the Republican’s cannot win the next election? Sorry for all the questions but …I don’t get it??? Unless you’ve been living under a rock somewhere you’ve heard that an additional 21,500 US soldiers are joining the 140,000 troops already in Iraq. Just the facts: 3,013 american soldiers killed, 22,714 wounded, Iraqi Insurgents killed (rough estimate) 55,000, informed estimates place Iraqi civilian casualties at over 600,000. By the end of 2007 it is expected that $600 billion in US tax funds will have been spent on the war in Iraq.
Where’s the next John Lennon?

All we are saying is give peace a chance.

Hey ya’ll. S’sup. Me and da bitches been hangin Jus checkin in c how u r doin, S L Easily sleazily with the man o Muskoka and chillin with his peeps... I be there. Safe!!
For the older readers, it was a most enjoyable weekend. It was fun acting the gentleman with Jean and Joan. Earned major points with Mom too, sorry Theresa she’s leaving me all her money. That was my first time really meeting Joan, but there’s something very familiar about her. It was great hearing them finish each other’s conversations about dark rye bread, or which to bring to the casino, purse or wallet. The weekend was made better because they bring stuff that I would never think to bring, homemade brownies, lemon squares, banana muffins and lots of chocolate. My next trip we b makin wit da bitches, swing on by n grab John’s grandmother for the best dessert cook-off. Lock!! Feel free to courier in a sample of your cheesecake Kevin, or Laurie can enter her butterscotch pie, Theresa can ummmm errr ummm, Judge?
The weekend started with rosary prayers read aloud as we began the drive north and ended with John sitting between the sisters for the ride home from Milton. John always says those old ladies (any of my aunts) look the same so he was on family-tree overload sitting between Jean and Joan and referred to aunt Joan. haha The Muskoka Gowers we’re gracious host as always. …Unless you slip up, say or do something stupid, then they are all over it. Everyone takes jabs at the vulnerable prey until the next victim slips up… or walks by. I love bonding with my Muskoka family. Norton stole the weekend, and my heart. I now have more pictures of Norton than Kohen and Dylan combined. He has the energy of a puppy, but quickly tires out from all that growing. I swear he was taller by the time we left. I had the pleasure of cuddling with him while he slept on the photon, probably wont fit with him by my next visit. Salt. Your fault. Well the weekend was really score. Thanks to all!!! Salada.

2006 Darwin Awards
Yes, it's again that magical time of the year when the Darwin Awards are bestowed, honoring the least evolved among us.
Here is the glorious Winner:
1. When his 38-caliber revolver failed to fire at his intended victim during a hold-up in Long Beach , California , would-be robber James Elliot did something that can only inspire wonder. He peered down the barrel and tried the trigger again. This time it worked.
And now, the Honorable Mentions:
2. The chef at a hotel in Switzerland lost a finger in a meat-cutting machine and submitted a claim to his insurance company. The company expecting negligence sent out one of its men to have a look for himself. He tried the machine and he also lost a finger. The chef's claim was
approved.
3. A man who shoveled snow for an hour to clear a space for his car during a blizzard in Chicago returned with his vehicle to find a woman had taken the space. Understandably, he shot her.
4. After stopping for drinks at an illegal bar, a Zimbabwean bus driver found that the 20 mental patients he was supposed to be transporting from Harare to Bulawayo had escaped. Not wanting to admit his incompetence, the driver went to a nearby bus stop and offered everyone waiting there a free ride. He then delivered the passengers to the mental hospital, telling the staff that the patients were very excitable and prone to bizarre fantasies The deception wasn't discovered for 3 days.
5. An American teenager was in the hospital recovering from serious head wounds received from an oncoming train. When asked how he received the injuries, the lad told police that he was simply trying to see how close he could get his head to a moving train before he was hit.
6. A man walked into a Louisiana Circle-K, put a $20 bill on the counter, and asked for change. When the clerk opened the cash drawer, the man pulled a gun and asked for all the cash in the register, which the clerk promptly provided. The man took the cash from the clerk and
fled, leaving the $20 bill on the counter. The total amount of cash he got from the drawer: $15.
(If someone points a gun at you and gives you money, is a crime committed?)
7. Seems an Arkansas guy wanted some beer pretty badly. He decided that he'd just throw a cinderblock through a liquor store window, grab some booze, and run. So he lifted the cinderblock and heaved it over his head at the window. The cinderblock bounced back and hit the would-be thief on the head, knocking him unconscious. The liquor store window was made
of Plexiglas. The whole event was caught on videotape.
8. As a female shopper exited a New York convenience store, a man grabbed her purse and ran. The clerk called 911 immediately, and the woman was able to give them a detailed description of the snatcher. Within minutes, the police apprehended the snatcher They put him in the car and drove back to the store. The thief was then taken out of the car and told to stand there for a positive ID. To which he replied, "Yes, officer, that's her. That's the lady I stole the purse from."
9. The Ann Arbor News crime column reported that a man walked into a Burger King in Ypsilanti, Michigan, at 5 a.m., flashed a gun, and demanded cash. The clerk turned him down because he said he couldn't open the cash register without a food order. When the man ordered onion rings, the clerk said they weren't available for breakfast. The man, frustrated, walked away.
******A 5-STAR STUPIDITY AWARD WINNER*****
10. When a man attempted to siphon gasoline from a motor home parked on a Seattle street, he got much more than he bargained for. Police arrived at the scene to find a very sick man curled up next to a motor home near spilled sewage. A police spokesman said that the man admitted to
trying to steal gasoline and plugged his siphon hose into the motor home's sewage tank by mistake. The owner of the vehicle declined to press charges, saying that it was the best laugh he'd ever had.

Not much to blog about lately. It’s a little after 10 Sunday morning, I just woke up. There is another sprinkle of white stuff on the ground, second day in a row. I’m sure Jean will like it, she told me; I hope there is lots of snow when we go to Karl and Trudy’s because I was telling Joan how beautiful it is up north when everything is covered in white up there. I could care less about the white stuff but I am looking forward to next weekend. After the old ladies are tucked away in bed, Karl and I are going to sneak away to Casino Rama and try our luck playing Texas Hold’em. For practice I played two tournaments on-line last night but didn’t do that well. In the first game I had a bad beat. There was a guy at the table playing very aggressive and mid way through the tournament he forced me all-in with an ace king suited. He beat me with a pair of jacks that hit on the river, which left me with a little over 400 chips. The very next hand I was dealt the big slick again. This time they were not suited but thought it was a sign anyway and pushed all my chips in and lost again. In the second I tried playing more conservative lasted longer in the tournament but didn’t get any cards and eventually just ran out of chips. I have never spent more than $20 at a casino in my life because I usually just play the slot machine and really don’t enjoy it that much. I do like playing Texas Hold’em though; we’ll see how much I enjoy it after dropping a $100 or so at the table. I should probably go into the casino with a more positive attitude.
Anyway, I’m always looking for things to blog about but nothing of interest has happened to me lately, not that that has stopped me from blogging about nothing before. I did see a license plate last week that read DAUL FN and a bumper sticker that said, TV Sucks – Ride Your Bike, which I thought both suited me but neither one is blog worthy on their own. I will mention a web site that John showed me, it’s “alluc.org”. They have movies, TV shows, cartoons (Laurie it even has Mr. Magoo) that you can watch without downloading. I caught-up on all The Office episodes that I missed from seasons one through three and John and I watched the movies Jack-Ass II and Borat. Anyway check it out and enjoy. I’m off to get groceries before the stores get too crowded.

Would you a buy a nine foot television?
At the 2007 Consumer Electronics Show in LasVegas Sharp introduced a 108 inch tv that stretches 9 feet from side to side. The average sofa size is six feet long. Can you imagine watching a tv 3 feet longer than your couch? Dan McBride once said that his goal in life was to own a bigger tv than his dad. Well there you go Dan.

Happy 2007 Everyone!!
This was supposed to be my first 2007 blog but after reading Kevin’s revised blog where he apologized to Karl I went off on a tangent. It was just easier and more fun to write that one rather then a boring Happy New Year blog. For those of you that don’t know Theresa, Wayne, Sam and I joined a table full of Sam’s friends at Michelangelo’s to celebrate the coming of the New Year. Tickets were $120 each for a multi-course meal, party favours, live band, champagne and buffet at midnight. The three separate bars did a good job serving the “all you can drink” drinks throughout the evening, including mixed drinks. There wasn’t a lot of time wasted in huge line-ups. Fortunately we had a table close to one of the bars and strategically got our refills when it wasn’t busy. Sam, Theresa and I all started the evening with cesears but switched to other forms of alcohol as the night progressed. Wayne ordered a rye and water to start and sipped at it all night. Even though the hall is located within stumbling distance to Theresa’s it was greatly appreciated (by all) having a designated driver. Thanks for taking one for the team Wayne. We estimated there were over 1000 people in attendance. The banquet hall does a great job of the whole presentation. Each course is delivered to each table so that everyone is served at the same time without long periods between courses. The empty plates and silverware are taken away as soon as you’re done and you barely notice the waitstaff serving the hundreds of tables. The food was good, not great, but there was plenty of it. I’m not a huge fan of lobster and sorry but no one cooks a steak as well as me. The dessert (which I was sure to leave room for) was fantastic, vanilla ice cream rolled in a crepe with cherry sauce and chocolate drizzle. The after-dinner chocolates were served in a smoking dry-ice bowl, like I said it’s all about the presentation. The women are all eloquently dressed (I pointed out a couple of my favourite dresses to both Wayne and Sam) and the men look like perfect gentlemen at least at the beginning of the night. I had a really good time and thought the money was well spent up until the stroke of midnight. That’s when every single guy remembers, oh yea!! New Year Eve is for couples. Only times that I really miss having a partner in my life are at the stroke of midnight on New Year Eve and whenever I don’t feel like cooking dinner. Hopefully Sam will post photos on his blog, I forgot my camera …again.

BTW, Karl asked me to add an apology blog for my previous effort but I didn’t read any comments defending his honour, so screw him

Is Karl an ASSHOLE?
This question has been asked numerous times before. Does any one else remember this comment from my blog dated Dec 6, 2006?

I forgive you for calling me a cunt.
Merry Christmas
Sherry
I only wish I had jumped to the conclusion that it was some ASSHOLE before placing that awkward phone call to Milton.
Remember this one?

God help her!!!!
He continues to leave comments on blogs using an alias and has escaladed to multiple personalities. You can clearly see a history of assholic behaviour.

wow everyone must be busy. No commenting happening on any blog.
Karl’s reply…
Im not busy
Defiantly holding his assholic behaviour up as a badge of honour. What! an ASSHOLE!
I believe this next one is self explanatory.

I don't get it Mike. Arent you a Jew?
What’s up with that?
And finally an example of his more clever assholic deeds, when I left a somewhat insensitive remark on Jessica’s blog about eating her beloved farm animals.

Merry Christmas sweetie, can't wait til you guys are up here to celebrate Christmas with us. Have a good day on the 25th and see you soon.
Love Unca Karl
Once pointed out the subtly mastery of the assholic performance is brilliant, calling her sweetie and signing off Unca Karl… Please!! Thanks for slamming me so viciously and publicly… ASSHOLE!!
I’m sure there are many more blog comment examples of this out of control ASSHOLE’S behavour. It is tough to recognize all of the assholic comments because they are so shrewdly worded that only the intended victim feels the barb directed at the heart. Feel free to paste any examples I might have missed. We need an intervention to help Karl pull his head out of his ass so that he can see the good and positive here, there and everywhere.
You know I love you right ASSHOLE?
(oops where did my balls go)
