Ok, this (http://thepurification.org) site is the talk of the town. Why? Well we all love a good mystery and here is one. No links, no nothing but a clock counting down! If you wander over the site with your mouse you will see eight more count downs. At the end of the count downs a message will be revealed and here are what the messages say. Any help? Nope, didn't think so. Here is a message board that is trying to figure all this out, (and they are good!) if anyone does figure it out please let me know!

I just now found out that he was the co-chair for the Congressional Missing and Exploited Children Caucus! He now may faces charges from laws that he co-authored! That is ironic. There are so many problems with this whole situation that I don't know where to begin. Was the GOP leadership aware of his conduct as some say? If so, heads should and hopefully will roll. I have already seen/heard some of the attack adds on the Republicans that have arose from this. With all that has gone wrong in this country in the last six years we should be tired of the GOP and their money grubbing, God hating & war mongering views. But I thought the same thing two years ago and well...

Then of course we have Foley's scapegoating that sickens me even more. I'm an alcoholic and I'm going into rehab, oh and by the way I was molested by church members when I was a child!

My god man use those two little things hanging between your legs and take responsibility for your actions, your busted and the only thing you have left is your honor.

cbs4boston.com - Drunken Bear Sleeping It Off: "Drunken Bear Sleeping It Off

(CBS4) LYONS, Colorado A drunken bear is waiting to be returned to the wild after being captured Tuesday in Lyons, Colorado. Colorado Division of Wildlife Officers say she was probably drunk after eating too many fermented apples.

Officers, who responded to calls of the bear wobbling through neighborhoods in Lyons, say this time of year bears intake almost 20,000 calories a day to store fat for their winter hibernation.

A bean bag gun was used to stun the bear, followed by a tranqualiztion to capture and tag her. The bear will be returned to the wild after she has slept it off. "

Here is the video.

Downey will play the title character in 'Iron Man,' a film directed by Jon Favreau. Filming is scheduled to begin in February, with the movie due in theaters in May 2008."

So why am I posting about Robert Downey Jr. taking on an acting roll? For one I'm glade to see him acting I believe he is one of the finest actors out there if his personal demons are under control. Second, how often will I get the chance to post twice in a single week while mentioning Iron Man, one of my all time favorite Comic book heroes!

iWon News - Eric Clapton Rethinks Playing 'Cocaine': "ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Eric Clapton is playing 'Cocaine' in concert again. The recovering drug addict and alcoholic, who founded the Crossroads Centre addiction recovery center on the Caribbean island of Antigua, stopped performing the song written by J.J. Cale when he first got sober.

'I thought that it might be giving the wrong message to people who were in the same boat as me,' Clapton recently told The Associated Press.

'But further investigation proved ... the song, if anything, if it's not even ambivalent, it's an anti-drug song."

It's been a big week here in the Twin Cities, the Twins as the division champs and also the cities have been chosen to host the 2008 Republican Convention. I would have preferred the Democratic Convention which was planning on coming to the cities but waited one day to long to announce it, and the GOP beat them to it. Oh well there is always 2012!

Modern civilization destroyed by bathroom conversation, watch this video for proof.

Spent today helping my sis in law move. I hate moving and moving other people is even worse, especially if they are not ready. (I am guilty of this myself, most of my moves have been pack and throw jobs two days before I need to be out.) We all have bad moving stories but I have had a few that go beyond bad and could have been written by Steven King himself.

When I was in the army (not sure I ever mentioned that I spent three years with the screaming chickens in the 80's and 90's, that's the 101st airborne for those who don't know) I had a sergeant call all the guys in the platoon who lived in the barracks to help him move on a Saturday morning. When we all arrived we where shocked to find that not only where things not packed but all of their things (his wife, him and their children) where still in the normal places, dirty dishes in the sink, cloths hanging on the hangers and folded in the drawers and kids toys scattered over the whole house. So we packed everything up for them. His wife was a little upset when she walked in the bedroom and found Kolterman packing her underwear drawer. Of course she may have been just a little upset that Kolterman was wearing a pair of her panties on his head! One word of advice, you must always give those who help you move beer, but do not open the beer until the move is almost done! Jimbo where ever you are this one is for you.

On at least three other times I have arrived at my new residence only to find the old tenants still there. Now one of these times there was circumstances that warranted the delay, it was in the middle of a blizzard. My moving van was stuck in the snow in front of the duplex while their moving van was stuck in the driveway it was three days till we all got dug out. Another time the landlord had failed to mention to the old tenant that he had someone moving in and she thought it would not be a problem if she took a few extra days to move into her boyfriends. Myself and my friends spent three hours getting her moved into her boyfriends, and Mark even ended up going out on a date with her. I guess she was not so serious about that boyfriend. The last one I arrived to find the landlord yelling at the old tenant threatening to call the cops, they had no place to go and would not leave. He was going to have them evicted but this could take a week or two. So much for my apartment, the landlord tried to pawn off on me two lesser apartments in other parts of town. In the end I ended up staying three weeks at a flea bag motel till I moved in with a friend of mine. I have had storage unites broken into stealing everything I had and once found a strange guy sleeping on my couch while it was in the van. I have moved in the middle of heat waves (92 degrees at midnight), blizzards, with help and more than once all by myself. Since 1990 I have moved a total of twelve times and have almost always lived in or around downtown. Why so many moves? When I was in college I had a constant stream of irresponsible roommates! Four of those moves occurred in one year because of a girlfriend who did not understand that the rent did not pay itself. Ahh to be young and stupid.

LiveScience.com - New Power Suit Amplifies Human Strength: "

NEW YORK—Engineers in Japan are perfecting a wearable power suit that amplifies human strength to help lift hospital patients or heavy objects.

Driven by portable batteries, micro air pumps and small body sensors that pick up even the slightest muscle twitch, the Stand-Alone Wearable Power Assist Suit is designed to help nursing home workers lift patients of up to 180 pounds while cutting the amount of strength required in half, project researcher Hirokazu Noborisaka told LiveScience today."

That suit does not look to practicle now... but give it ten years and we all will be running around in Iron Man suits saving the world!

wcco.com - Toddler Discovered Drunk In North Minneapolis: "Tests taken at the hospital last night showed the 3-year-old well over the legal blood alcohol limit for adults, measuring 0.12."

There is a joke here, but I find the story to depressing to type it. My dad used to get me drunk at drive in movies. As the first movie would end he would pass me up (I would watch the movies from the top of our station wagon) his left over "pops". Why? So I would go to sleep (pass out) and he and mom could leave after the first movie, since I would yell and cry that I wanted to watch all three. (drive inns you have to love them, three for the price of one, even less if you count my older brother hidden in the trunk;) Years latter my mother would deny knowing anything about this, selective memory at it's best.

This site is so... well cool. These guys/girls go exploring the area's that we never think of. Abandoned buildings, tunnels, caves even sewers all within the city limits. Nothing is off limits and they take photo's of it all. I have spent a few hours reading, looking and wishing I could go with!

This site has given me a few laughs, the photo's if real are the funniest part.

2theadvocate.com | News | Nelson, others cited for drugs: "LAFAYETTE — Country music singer-songwriter Willie Nelson was cited on drug counts in St. Martin Parish after a traffic stop of his tour bus Monday allegedly yielded more than a pound of marijuana and a bag of psychedelic mushrooms."

Nelson and his crew could face up to six months in jail and a $500 fine if convicted on the drug counts.

A pound and a half of pot and magic mushrooms is a misdemeanor ???

Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip... OMG this show was great! I have just found a new favorite show and it's on broadcast TV even, go figure!

Today I had a huge change happen, while Carrie was cutting my hair she had an ooppss! and well there was only one way to fix it... this was the before and...

This is the After. I had already decided to shave the goatee.

Lonelygirl15 I know everyone is talking about this, she claimed to be a home schooled 15 yr old but actually was a 19 yr old actress. Her videos on youtube brought in tens of thousands to watch. After all the hype I went and looked and I have a question. Why? Why did so many people watch her videos, why do we care that it was fake and why did I waste three minutes of my time. Speaking of Why? Why in the world do we need a New Numa Numa song and video? This one is an overproduced 1980's style MTV music video that... well it sucks. Speaking of Numa Numa fame the original writer of Numa Numa has jumped on the fame train left the band, moved to LA and made yet another version of Numa Numa this one is a rock version and well... it does not suck. And more waste of time stuff.. a Deal or No Deal music video. I really need to get a job, sitting here watching Google Videos and now Youtube... waste of time and life. Except maybe this video;)

The New York Times > Technology > Circuits > When the Sous-Chef Is an Inkjet: "Sushi made by Mr. Cantu, the 28-year-old executive chef at Moto in Chicago, often contains no fish. It is prepared on a Canon i560 inkjet printer rather than a cutting board. He prints images of maki on pieces of edible paper made of soybeans and cornstarch, using organic, food-based inks of his own concoction. He then flavors the back of the paper."

I wonder what the calorie count is? This could be the next diet fad, eat all the paper food you want, get the Tastes but with few calories?

Internet dating for Orangutans!

MSNBC - News of the Weird: "# Bright Ideas

# In August, zookeepers at Apenheul ape park in Apeldoorn, Netherlands, said they had arranged with counterparts at a park in Borneo to establish a live Internet video connection to provide companionship to their respective rare orangutans, treating the connection as sort of a visual dating site. An Apenheul spokeswoman suggested the apes might learn to push buttons to transfer food to each other, creating a mutual fondness that might lead (if transportation can be arranged) to mating. [Toronto Star, 8-15-06]"

Wingwomen: What is a wingwoman?

When I was younger I had friends that where girls but where not girlfriends. They where the one's to point out possible dates, do the intro's etc... well that was a wingwoman. Does it work? Yes. Did it work for me? Not quite. Now there are two business's out there that will charge you $$$ for their service.

How desperate are we that people actually pay others to be their friends? Instead next time you break up with a girl try something new, be nice. Keep them as friends (No privileges!) and see what happens. I dated quite a few girls that I was introduced to by other girls so... but I found my wife and soul mate the old fashion way, hanging out in a bar!

My heart goes out to his family, but I can't say I was suprised at the way he went. 

 

Uh.... ok, ya... right. 

I'm back, I think? After to much work and not enough time mixed with a case of black ass depression I've found the juice to start this again.

Happy Mothers Day: "Happy Mothers Day

This is a video of a baby squirrel getting lost in downtown New York City. Things looked pretty bleak for the little guy until his mother found him and carried him back home."

How strong are those bike wheels?

No he's not dead, just passed out.


If this describes you see the girl below.


Where glad their not!

Someone hates this kid.


Some crazy and stupid pics from the net... mostly break.com.

Not much going on in our world just job work (I wish I could win the lotto, life would be so different for so many people.) bills and house work. Carrie loves her new job at the bead store it pays less but she if having so much fun. My work has been long = hours and stress. My hotel is getting ready for some major renovations (work has started already) and keeping an eye on that while managing the daily stuff is adding hours to every day.

So on Friday night 3:45 or so am this couple checks in, she is a knockout and the guy is beaming with pride. (No one checks into a hotel at 3:45 am unless your to drunk to drive or it's a hook up) The guy tells me he met the girl at a notorious strip club in DT Minneapolis. I don't know if she works there or what but she didn't seem to pleased to have this guy broadcasting it to this audience of one. Twenty minutes latter the guy comes to the desk looking for condoms, I/we don't stock them but their is a SuperAmerica (think 7-11) half a block away. He jumps in his car and speeds out to the store. When he pulls back into the parking lot he is followed by a squad car. The cops informed me when they come into the hotel to confirm he was a guest that he has several outstanding warrants and will be going away for tonight. Now the dilemma, do I call the girl and let her know? Nope, I figure if she is worried about him she will call or come to the desk. She didn't.

So this will be an experiment. I just read an article over at Fade to Numb about search results linking to your blog. I always knew about this but now... I'll play with it. I have seen some dozzies on my site meter, but I thought I word throw up a few choice words to see what happens next.

Most popular searches according to technorati are: Karl Rove, allofmp3, al gore, rove, mother's day, Iran, DA vinci code, boing boing, nsa, mission impossible.

OK now a few others: Paris Hilton nude, sex tape, Pamela Anderson, family guy, masturbating, babe and juggs.

That should be enough lets see what happens next?

Wish I had known this before I bought that engagment ring!
