My 3 Year Old Cracks Me Up

While trying to render assistance to my youngest in the bathroom I discovered that the toilet paper was not coming off the roll properly. Upon further investigation I found the cause to be a large glob of toothpaste on the edge of the roll causing it to stick together.
"Who could have done this?" I inquired to which I was quickly met with the reply "It wasn't me."
I chuckled and said back to her "This has your name written all over it."
She looked up at me and as sincerely as possible said "Somebody else must have written it."
I tell you that girl is quick.

'Why Believe in a God?' Ad Campaign Launches on D.C. Buses

Ads proclaiming, "Why believe in a god? Just be good for goodness' sake," will appear on Washington, D.C., buses starting next week and running through December. The American Humanist Association unveiled the provocative $40,000 holiday ad campaign Tuesday.

Don't these people have something better to spend their money on? Don't they realize that the money they are spending has "In God We Trust" on it? They want "under God" taken out of the Pledge of Allegiance and "Christ" taken out of Christmas. Will they want me to change my name to Opher, so that I will no longer offend someone or am I just being ridiculous now?

Here is another quote from the story. "We are trying to reach our audience, and sometimes in order to reach an audience, everybody has to hear you," said Fred Edwords, spokesman for the humanist group. "Our reason for doing it during the holidays is there are an awful lot of agnostics, atheists and other types of non-theists who feel a little alone during the holidays because of its association with traditional religion."

"Everybody has to hear you" and people think bible thumpers are pushy. At least they don't take on $40,000 dollar add campaigns pushing their views on everyone. Maybe all those agnostics, atheists and other types of non-theists feel a little alone because they don't go to Church and share fellowship with other people. There is a reason that the holidays are associated with traditional religion, because it is meant to be the celebration of the birth of Jesus. If you don't believe in God or Jesus, then maybe you shouldn't believe in the holidays either.

Congratulations Mr. President (elect)

Now that I am over my disappointment of my candidate not winning the election I offer my congratulations to the next President Barack Obama. I will say that I was moved by his acceptance speech and will do my part to support him because that is what I took an oath to do. I feel I did my part(I actually voted this time) and it did not work out the way I would have liked, but we move on. I do not envy him in the tough road ahead. It takes a special kind of person to know that the job you desire will be the hardest, most thankless job anyone could ever have and still be willing to do it. I want to be proven wrong about my doubts of his abilities. Our country needs this Presidency to succeed, so I urge everyone to look past petty differences and give him a chance. Senator McCain said "My next President" (in a very classy secession speech I might add) and I think that sums it up nicely.

PS- I am not an English major, so if I used secession out of context please forgive me.

PPS-The actual word I should have used is concession.

Bad Halloween Costumes

Some (bad) ideas for Halloween

Get a laptop computer to carry around and simply state that you are an Internet predator. What is more scary than that.

Carry around a video camera and some T-shirts and tell people you are with Girls gone wild.

Jeffery Dahmer, or the John Wayne Gacy clown.

The transvestite from "The Crying Game"

Wear a whip cream bikini like the one in "Varsity Blues"

Carry around some sports memorabilia, black one of your eyes with makeup and say that OJ kicked your ass and wants his stuff back.

Carry around a fake bomb, wear an Obama for president shirt and say you are Bill Ayers.

John McCain's skin cancer. (Not sure how to pull that one off)

Get a realistic looking dildo, cut off and carry just the top inch and a half covered in fake blood and say that you were following to close behind Lorena Bobbit.

Spill whiskey on yourself, put on some hand cuffs, make several anti-semetic remarks and say you are Mel Gibson.

As I said in the beginning, these are all bad ideas for Halloween costumes and I don't actually recommend them to anyone, just like I would not recommend that Great White do a cover of the Talking Heads "Burning Down the House" it would be bad form.

Inspired by the Onion

As you can see from my links I like the Onion and thought of this headline in my sick little mind.

32 Year Old Woman Poses as 11 Year Old Boy to Meet Men Her Age.

Peoria, IL--Samantha Stevens was tired of meeting the same losers on her favorite dating website, so after watching an episode of Dateline she came up with a new idea to meet men her age. She presented herself as 11 year old Timmy Richardson on the social networking site MySpace and before long she had arranged meetings with several lonely men looking for companionship.
"I was really surprised by all the responses," Samantha was quoted as saying. "It is really interesting who you can find on the web these days. I've already had "dates" with a school teacher and a local fireman. I even met a youth minister, but broke off the date because that was just a little too weird."
Stevens also noted that most of the men were somewhat disappointed when they discovered her charade but were pleasantly relieved that she was not actually Chris Hansen.

Bahrain

Bahrain,
What a pain
120 degress how insane
No clouds in the sky
No chance of rain
I hate this hell
They call Bahrain
Bahrain,
How you suck
to pull in here
must be down on our luck
offloading trash
bringing on cables
drink lots of water
or you'll be disabled
The coners will all
get their time away
while the nukes are stuck
with paint and field day
they made it a working port
but of course
why wouldn't it be
we must think about ORSE
their excuses pathetic
their logic is lame
one more reason
to hate Bahrain.
