Hit & Run: Meet the New Boss…

Left & Right Gotta love this graphic….

Sketches of Strain: Hug Your Pet I’m reminded of the following story that was told to me:

Ok, so I’m being a Link Whore today, trying to move up the Ecosystem AND get the word out about my sometimes witty, sometimes not-so-witty blog. I’ve tried to be controversial; I’ve tried to be musical; I’ve even tried to be funny but… still they do not come. My traffic does not increase. I link [...]

Since I’m trying to build interest in my Blog, I guess it’s time I put together a FAQ for people. (Written July 31, 2003 and updated as needed.) Here goes. 1. What Blog software do you use? Currently, Movable Type 2.64. I liked it so much, I donated to register it. 2. Who the HELL [...]

Sanity’s Edge: Top Fifty Movies And here are mine (in no particular order)

Tink and I were discussing the lack of pole dancers in blogdom. So, she send me a photo of one she thought I’d enjoy. Please be sure to open discretely. View image

Moonglow forwarded the following to me. Read and get your daily recommended dosage of humor. An elderly woman and her little grandson, whose face was sprinkled with bright freckles, spent the day at the zoo. Lots of children were waiting in line to get their cheeks painted by a local artist who was decorating them [...]

Amish Tech Support: Something fishy at McDonalds …could be another one headed for the BlogRoll….

An alert reader wrote in with: O Great Bunny! What can i do this afternoon to keep myself entertained and not fall asleep at work? To which the Great Bunny replied: Well, my first response would be, well, DUH! Do your work! Then it came to me that you are a talented individual who can [...]

…with her HATE LIST of today.

Thanks to TrooperRob who forwarded this to me: CNN.com – Woman changes name to GoVeg.com – Jul. 31, 2003 And yes, the woman works for PETA. Which, since I’m a carnivore, means “People EATING Tasty Animals.” Or, as I read somewhere, “if we’re not supposed to eat animals, why are they made of meat?” Bring [...]

Best Foods for A Thursday 10. Potato-Crusted Pork Loin from Red Fish Grill, New Orleans 9. Bojangles Steak Biscuits (though on Tuesdays they’re 79 cents) 8. Chicken Cordon Bleu from Tripps 7. Wendy’s Single with Cheese 6. McDonalds French Fries 5. Hormel’s Ready Dinners (except Meatloaf) 4. Roxette Bunny™’s favorite: CARROTS! 3. Fresh boiled corn [...]

But it certainly has shown up in the #1 slot on Billboard’s Dance Charts! Congratulations to Annie!

There are many things that I dont’ see eye to eye on with many people; Rachel Lucas is probably the last person I would ever expect to have more than one or two things in common with; HOWEVER… I was reading her FAQ and the response to “Is Rachel a right-winger?” The response: Rachel Lucas: [...]

The “Daily Roxette” has a snippet of an interview with Per Gessle, 1/2 of Roxette, who has recently released a solo album in Swedish. He mentions what his take on the music industry downturn is. “Better albums need to be made” | tdr

We’re just supposed to comply, not question. Pac Bell Sues Over Online Music Trading Is it just me, or is anyone else of like mind that the RIAA is acting like a school bully who doesn’t want to change and adapt to technology and the times?

Vatican Starts Campaign Vs. Gay Marriage Well, isn’t this shocking, from a religion run by an old man with a melita filter on his head, who also is in charge of the richest tax-exempt organization in the world. I take major offense to the statement in the document that “comes out strongly against allowing gay [...]

Word is out that Lord and Taylor is closing their Lynnhaven Mall store. The only thing I could afford from that place was from their second floor clearance racks… so, while I’ll miss that, the rest of the store was too rich for my blood.

Tiger: Raggin’ & Rantin’: Pictures of captured terrorists

Saw this and thought it too funny not to be the final thought of the night: Nite!

This should be proof enough that Telemarketers are a bad lot. First, they sue…as CNN Reports, saying the government has overstepped its boundries and will cause mass layoffs (and less phone calls on my phone). Since I didn’t ask to have my evenings and days bothered with this mess, find another job. May I suggest [...]

….where it DOES NOT BELONG. You listen to the number of conservative asshats who are claiming that homosexuals are promiscuous, but then won’t give the same tax and legal rights to those who AREN’T promiscuous, who want to have a legally recognized relationship, and aren’t the scum of the earth. But then again, since Kobe [...]

This is too perfect. Take THAT, you Cimino dragon! Collinization: The Legend of the Cimino Dragon
