It’s Friday? Again?

Just not much going on around here. What with all the rain we’re getting it’s hard to get outside and burn brush or anything. Still finishing up the bookcases I’ve built for the library (molding and stuff) and finally got off my ass and started the shelves for the DVD’s and CD’s down in the "man cave" but even that can get boring when that’s all you do. Finally watched/ripped season 3 of "Heroes" and those episodes are on the media drives now. I need a couple of those new 2 Terabyte drives! Don’t let me win the lotto!

ohshit

Feeding the Missionaries tomorrow evening. Kielbasa & Sour kraut with taters all cooked in the same crockpot. Started it tonight as I’ll be going over to my friends house in the morning to download our favorite shows and I’m not sure what time I’ll get home. We’ll see how that goes as sour kraut is kind of an acquired taste.

SWMBO and I went on our Friday date early today. She took me to the Family Pancake House in Port Orchard for breakfast. Had the Hobo Omlette; which has a bit of everything in it and topped with a couple of containers of salsa is pretty good. Afterwards we stopped at Big 4 Sporting Goods and bought new shoes. Work boots for $15 on sale. Cool. I got two. Pair. Then we made our usual stop at Albertson’s and spent too much money again. Frozen Veggies were on sale and I can’t resist frozen veggies on sale.

I am getting pretty sick and tired of this dial up Internet though!

And Now The News?

Headline: Anger grows in quake-hit Haiti over aid delay

PORT-AU-PRINCE (Reuters) – Desperate Haitians set up roadblocks with corpses in Port-au-Prince on Thursday to demand quicker relief efforts after a massive earthquake killed tens of thousands and left countless others homeless.
Ok, let me get this straight. Haitians are pissed because we aren’t sending help fast enough for them? They "demand" quicker relief efforts? I know this is a "Me Me Me Mine Mine Mine" world but it seems to me They should be happy with anything They get when they get it. It just amazes me that people everywhere think they are entitled to whatever they need "just because." Reminds me of those buttheads that didn’t heed the Katrina warnings… Don’t get me wrong, I do have feelings of compassion for the quake victims and I donated to the cause. I just think they ought to get off their duffs and help themselves before ’demanding’ aid from outside of the country. And how in the hell can you DEMAND help anyway?
Headline: Obama proposes bank fee, slams Wall Street

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – President Barack Obama on Thursday proposed Wall Street banks pay up to $117 billion to reimburse taxpayers for the financial bailout, as he slammed bankers for their "massive profits and obscene bonuses

Wait! Weren’t they supposed to pay back the bail out money in the first place? How about if they pay back ALL of it!

Headline: Men more evolved? Y chromosome study stirs debate

WASHINGTON – Women may think of men as primitive, but new research indicates that the Y chromosome — the thing that makes a man male — is evolving far faster than the rest of the human genetic code

So There! But I can answer the question: Why? It’s Women! We HAVE to stay ahead of them in order to survive and go fishing. By using our genetic advantage we can come up with excuses like: "Yes, dear. Bowling increases my sexual desire for you and that’s why I’m down at the lanes all the time." and "Beer makes me sexy." and "No, those shorts definitely DO NOT make your ass look bigger." (That last being a prime example of survival instincts kicking in…)

Headline: Cocaine Found in NASA Space Shuttle Hangar

NASA has launched an extensive investigation to determine how a small amount of cocaine ended up in a space shuttle hangar at the agency’s Florida spaceport.

Well, weren’t they looking for a cheaper method of getting the shuttle high? Hey, check the guy with the mop! Or the guy that looks like he’s been through the wind tunnel…

I’m outta here….
