A friend sent me this list. And I realized, I am old! (shaddup San chonino! ) I grew up with these ladies, and yes they were hot to me! How many do you remember as that heart throb as a male adolescent (females are welcome to provide male lists, I just never got into the male side. hehehee) Brigette Bardot 71 Stella Stevens 68 Sophia Loren 71 Gina Lollobrigida 78 Deborah Kerr 94 Lena Horne 88 Kay Starr 83 Patti Page 78 Annette Funic...
Most know that my wife is a paralegal. And I a network Jock. But I work downtown, and she in a safer climate, so that on occassion, she asks me to take things to the court house. Not a problem. I have been doing it for about 3 years now, and the US Marshalls (no none of them are Tommy Lee Jones) know me by sight now, and wave me through. I always leave my cell phones at the office as I know they are verbotten. Today was a little different. It was an Adversa...
Happy feet! I've got those hap-hap-happy feet! Give them a low-down beat And they begin dancing! I've got those ten little tip-tap-tapping toes, When they hear a tune I can't control the dancing, dear, To save my soul! Those weary blues can't get into my shoes, Because my shoes refuse To ever grow weary. I keep cheerful on an earful Of music sweet; Just got those hap-hap-happy feet! By Cab Calloway Yep! I got happy Feet! Ok, how many have seen the film ...
Ernesto is now moving out. We are still getting rain, and the sump pump is going like a bat out of hell! But we were spared the worst (Tidewater caught the worst of it). Still, with over 300k without power and I would estimate (my bucket measure) about 6 inches of rain, he was no friend of ours! The rain is slacking off, but the wind is going gungho! It seems he is running into a high pressure ridge, so the gradient means we are getting a lot of wind. That, along...
Yes, worlds. Not like earth and Mars. But when the worlds of earth collide. And what are those worlds? Perception and Reality. You see, we don't live in reality. That is the real world. We live in perception. What we perceive. To give you an example. Many on the left think that Bush stole the election in 2000. That is their perception. And no amount of facts, recounts (both before and after the decision) will change their mind. To...
We all know about Groupies. Those are the ones that glom onto bands and follow them to every gig. It is not enough that they hear the band, they have to foillow them. I have never understood them. Yea, I like some bands. Some to the point that I do follow their road tours. From home. But I dont follow them like the dead heads do. I can watch them, and listen to them, but I will never understand them. For some reason, they have an unnatural obsesssion ...
Recently, a couple of the bloggers on JU have opined about the "Peyton Place" nature of JU. Indeed, recently we have had many Drama Queens, Divas, macho blogs and drug addicts posting here. And while some had some thoughts of wisdom, most were just antagonistic and a waste of electrons. But that is what makes a community. Think about it. We have drama queens (or the chronic complainers I guess in real life), the Hoity Toity, and the Macho men in our neighborhoods, righ...
Yea, the spirit of Elie has gripped me! But it was the response of Gerlyne that prompted me. In a recent article, I noted the epiphany of Lanny Davis. But then I went off on a rant tangent, And in so doing lost the message of the intent of the blog. And try as I might, I could not bring the respondants back on topic. And that was my fault for the tangent. So I want to say to Kingbee, and Davad, sorry. It was not my intent to tar all of you with the brush that ...
Mason wrote an article where a drunk decided he was some hooker and was bound and determined to break into his room and get him some nookie. And it reminded me of my episode with drunks, hotels, and one that got booted off the State List of recommended ones (I would hope). August 1993. I remember it. I spent exactly 1 day at home. The rest of the time I was traveling the state, or on vacation. I left on August 1st (a Sunday) and headed for far SW Virginia. ...
Thanks to Gideon MacLeish for the inspiration! OK, I will admit it. I never was a car jock! I can change the oil, and thanks to my cousin, tune (basic) a car. But I never was into tweaking and tuning and that stuff. But I am a guy. So somethings come naturally to me. I have drive a stick since I started driving. Never owned an Auto (except with wives), and I know what cars are supposed to sound like. I am "in-tune". Back when I was first married...
Quote from the Mistress of Mayhem: Trudy (and the DoN) have never EVER been blacklisted here But just 7 months ago, she left this snippet on my blog (I saved it turkey!) Delete my reply! Fine join my blacklist! 2 in 2 days! I wonder, should I give her points by reading her slop to actually expose a lie a day? nah! Liars are not worth the effort.
OK, no secret. The local queen of lies, distortions and falsehoods cant leave me alone. OK, I will finally answer her and prove that she is just a liar that likes to lie. Back almost a year ago, I wrote a blog why I hate racism. Basically it is because my family would be the brunt of it regardless! In it I said that a cousin did some genealogy and found out I am some umpteenth part black. Here is that statement. No, Black. As in Santo Domingan.&nb...
I was struck by a statement my wife made this weekend. As some of you know, her friend from Dallas flew in for Lunch (that is another blog). She is also Hispanic, but very well assimilated. So much so, she does not speak Spanish! So my wife is trying to teach her. They were listening to a song this weekend and trying to translate it. But the singer was not Mexican or south of this (USA) border. They were Spanish and singing in Castillan (sp). And it w...
Airlines are weird! Most of them (the US carriers) are treading quicksand, and chopping salaries and benefits. Being pinched from the 9-11 shutdown and high fuel prices. But some things never change. My Wife is friends with this lady in Dallas (my wife lived there before we met and married). She works for a major Airline (name to be withheld - but some may guess it). Anyway, once a year (she is a dispatcher BTW), she is required to jump seat a 5 hour trip (at lea...
By a fellow blogger that my manners are lacking. I forgot to welcome back the local racist. When she decided to quit posting under another name and post under her old one after she trashed Brad. Well, I guess I did! I forgot to welcome her back! Or maybe I don't like cowards posting under pseudonyms. Who say they are leaving and then return. "Oh, some one asked me to!". Yup! Mean what you say and say what you mean. Or just use every excuse in t...
