It s Not About The Nail

It's like they know my ex-wife!



Please note; I do not hate my ex-wife.  I wish her the best.  This is pretty funny though because it seems just like a conversation we would have had.

Happy Fourth!

J'espère

No matter how long we're together.
I miss her when we're apart.  Honestly even it it's a trip to the store...
Seeing her is like coming home from a long trip.

J'espère

 
Je fais des e-mails à toute allure
Tu me réponds "à toute à l'heure"
Tu mets du rouge sur ta figure
Je mets du baume sur mon cœur
J'espère, j'espère, j'espère, oh oui j'espère
C'est mon caractère Mmmmm
J'espère
Comme disait Yoko Ono
Je vais essayer de retrouver ses mots
D'elle, la seule chose qu'on partage en frères, mon frère
J'espère, j'espère, j'espère oh oui, j'espère
C'est mon caractère Mmmmm
J'espère
On a envie de faire l'amour
Mais les amours sont diluviennes
Assomées par le temps qui court
Il n'y a pas d'amour qui tienne
J'espère, j'espère, j'espère, oh oui j'espère
C'est mon caractère Mmmmm
J'espère
Comme disait Yoko Ono
Je vais essayer de retrouver ses mots
D'elle la seule chose qu'on partage en frères, mon frère
J'espère, j'espère, j'espère, oh oui j'espère
C'est mon caractère Mmmmm
J'espère
Les étoiles qui s'effondrent
Des espèces qui disparaissent
J'espère, j'espère, j'espère oh oui, j'espère
C'est mon caractère Mmmmm
J'espère

This is (or might not be) water

A while ago I found a video which resonated with me in a big way.  Davi d Fost er did this as a graduation speech for a college and it is, simply, one of the most beautiful things that has ever appeared on the internet.

It will likely mean something to you too.  I hope you enjoy it.  Until the curmudgeonly buttheads find it and file a "copyright claim."  I claim Fair Use as this is definitely a commentary.  An educational, uplifting few minutes.

Enjoy,
Stew

Weird Universe

Found a really interesting post on the science behind the primordial universe.  It's well within reason that the early universe had a long way to go to develop to what we know today with stars, plants, asteroids, etc arranged in galaxies...  But this article discussed the state of dimensions.  It postulates that dimensions will morph over time and become more and more complex.

Discovery News

Check it out.  Worth the read.

GUNS! GUNS! GUNS!

Joe Biden!!!

The thing that bothers me about all this talk of banning certain types of guns, other than the obvious Constitutional aspect, is that once the Government starts taking away our rights guaranteed by the Constitution, where does that same Government stop?

I mean, popularizing the removal of guns in the name of safety, looks and sounds and feels good (to some) but where does it end?

What if your Government decides that too many people are exposing children to threats on the internet.  Do you have to turn in your mouse?

Cars are dangerous to children.  Stop driving says your town mayor.  Think of the children.

You have a house and only one family lives there?  There are children that have nothing.  You must take on a family immediately and share you greedy person you.

You can laugh but the erosion of our Constitution is a very dangerous thing.

Happy 2013

The beatings will continue until morale improves...

There are people that are happy with the current Executive Branch.  Either I'm deluded, or the people happy with the President are.  Guess time will tell who is the deluded, eh?

Meanwhile, life goes on.

Heaven and Hell

While walking down the street one day a Corrupt Senator (that may be redundant) was tragically hit by a car and died.

His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance. "Welcome to heaven," says St.. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you see, so we're not sure what to do with you."

"No problem, just let me in," says the Senator..

"Well, I'd like to, but I have orders from the higher ups. What we'll do is have you spend one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you can choose where to spend eternity."

"Really? I've made up my mind. I want to be in heaven," says the Senator.

"I'm sorry, but we have our rules."

And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a green golf course. In the distance is a clubhouse and standing in front of it are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with him. Everyone is very happy and in evening dress. They run to greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they had while getting rich at the expense of the people. They play a friendly game of golf and then dine on lobster, caviar and the finest champagne.

Also present is the devil, who really is a very friendly guy who is having a good time dancing and telling jokes. They are all having such a good time that before the Senator realizes it, it is time to go. Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves while the elevator rises.

The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens in heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him, "Now it's time to visit heaven..."

So, 24 hours passed with the Senator joining a group of contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing. They have a good time and before he realizes it, the 24 hours have gone by and St. Peter returns.

"Well, then, you've spent a day in hell and another in heaven. Now choose your eternity."

The Senator reflects for a minute, then he answers: "Well, I would never have said it before, I mean heaven has been delightful, but I think I would be better off in hell."

So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell...

 Now the doors of the elevator open and he's in the middle of a barren land covered with waste and garbage. He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and putting it in black bags as more trash falls to the ground.

The devil comes over to him and puts his arm around his shoulders.

"I don't understand," stammers the Senator. "Yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse, and we ate lobster and caviar, drank champagne, and danced and had a great time. Now there's just a wasteland full of garbage and my friends look miserable. What happened?"

 The devil smiles at him and says,
"Yesterday we were campaigning,
Today, you voted.."

Treehugger Approved



I remember in high school discussing the mystery of how trees managed to get water up into the leaves.  Nobody could ever tell me and I eventually forgot about the question.  This is a worthy video to watch if you have any interest in trees or science or really hot, scantily clad women.

My little boy Ali is getting really old :(

W e thought we were going to lose him a couple of weeks ago.  He wouldn't eat and barely drank water and was having siezures every coupl...
