My next tattoo

UPDATE:  By the way, this tattoo is totally roadhousian.

Maybe weight loss isn’t so important anymore…

Single Female Lawyer!

Is it acceptable to ask somebody a question, but only because the answer will determine how funny the joke inside my head about that person will end up being?

There is a former lawyer in my class, and she likes to talk and give her non-biased opinion about everything.  I want to ask if she is single so that whenever she talks I can say to myself “Single Female Lawyer!”

It’s a Futurama joke.

Either way, it is making me crack up every time she talks now…so I guess asking her the question now is irrelevant.

Summer School…for real, not that movie

From 9 to 6 Monday through Friday, I’m in school.  Its only a three week session, which should make it bearable.  Don’t expect much from me while I’m getting through this.

The good thing?  The assignments are so minuscule compared to regular undergraduate work that I could probably knock them all out in one afternoon.  So thats my plan for this Friday.

Now what?

Had my last 2 finals this morning.  I graduate tomorrow.  Now I’m home until the Grizzlie game tonight (Thirsty Thursdays = Dollar Beer), and I feel like I should be reading something, or working on a paper, or researching, yet I don’t have to do any of that.  I’m free of school until Monday.  3 days of not having to think about stuff.

Conveniently, as I have mentioned, it gets kicked off with Dollar Beers.

Hard Times

I’m driving down Blackstone Avenue, heading to downtown Fresno. I’m stopped at a red light on Olive Avenue, in the center lane.

A black Suburban, all chromed out, with some fancy looking rims stops next to me on my right. He is about 3 car lengths away from the car in front of him.

My radio is on pretty loud, and the guy tries to get my attention.

I turn down the volume, and the guy asks if I want “surround sound for my house.”

I say “No, thanks” and drive off, as the light has turned green while the guy was shouting his question to me.

Whats funny is that the guy was white, clean cut, and wearing a golf shirt.

Maybe its either sell his surround sound, or pawn his rims.

On the other hand, I’m sure it costs like $100 to fill up his gas tank at this point. Maybe he was on his way to the gas station down the street and needed some cash.

Chocolate and Bacon…can it be eaten for breakfast?

At Whole Foods recently I stumbled upon this:

And I was actually at the real Whole Foods, I don’t mean to imply that I Stumbled Upon a Whole Foods website.

Anyway, chocolate and bacon? Sure, why not. So I got one.

Be quiet, American Idol is on!

“Society is being subjected to the same type of trauma-based programming using constant war and atrocities that include Auschwitz, Hiroshima, the Kennedy assassinations, Sept. 11 and Abu Ghraib. We are being collectively desensitized on the one hand, and programmed to focus on sex, violence, trivia and empty social rituals on the other.”

The above quote stands alone by itself, at least I think so. For the rest, and a bit of general Illuminati conspiracy theory, check this out.

Emergency Party Button

Some guy rigged his apartment up to a button which, when pushed, causes the dwelling to transform into the Roxbury. Pretty Cool.  Check out how he did it here.

If I had done this, my house would transform into a karaoke bar.

Search Engine Hilarity – what will happen if humans eat duck tape

The sentence itself is so…calmly put.

what will happen if humans eat duck tape

Why wonder? Did this person eat duck tape?

Are they talking about tapeworms from ducks?

Why would a search for “duck” tape come to this site? Is Google assuming that most people are dumb enough to mean “duct” tape when they type “duck” tape?

Whats great is that the first thing on the list is the blog’s home page, not a specific post.

I’m now officially going barefoot whenever I can.

I’ve always suspected that wearing shoes wasn’t natural.  Here’s a legit article discussing why shoes are killing our feet.

It even gives a shout out to the Vibram Five Fingers.

And I do plan on wearing socks…My feet get cold because of poor circulation.  Ever since basic training/boot camp, my feet are generally half numb and cold.  Something went wrong, I guess.

Honey Bees and 2012

In doing some research from school, I came across an article (not on the internet, so there is no link) from 1978 which said that bee populations have been declining since the 1960’s.

Honey bee populations have been declining recently as well. We hear today about how bee populations are dropping, but I didn’t know it was going on for over 40 years.

Why? I think it has to do with 2012.

If the planet is experiencing magnetic changes because of our location on the Galactic Spiral (which way oversimplifies the whole event, I know), the bees would be the first creatures to feel it. Bees use the earths magnetic pole to “keep time,” so if magnetism was getting disrupted it could be contributing to the overall population decline.

8-5? WTF is that?

I don’t think I have ever had a job with normal hours.

I’ve had jobs with shifts, but the shifts always varied in length and starting time. Like bagging groceries at various grocery stores, or pushing carts at Target, or doing whatever I did at K-Mart.

Maybe stocking shelves at night at Safeway counted, because that was 11pm-8am pretty consistently.

But I’m talking about a job that always starts at a certain time in the morning (like between 7am and 9am) and ends in the afternoon (between 4pm and 6pm).

When I was in the Navy, we always had to be in at
