HOW’S THAT HOPEY-CHANGEY STUFF WORKIN’ OUT FOR YA? (CONT’D) – Not often Mr. Reynolds writes something this verbose, but when he does, it’s almost guaranteed to be quotable. And if I’m peeing all over the wave of hope-and-change hype that got him into office despite his obvious unsuitability, it’s to help ensure that nothing this disastrous happens again in my lifetime. I realize that it’s painful for those who fell Read More ...
This is so unfair to the rest of us.
“We are deeply concerned that Mr. Sorrentino’s association with our brand could cause significant damage to our image.”
This almost encourages these ignoranuses and the wannabes waiting in the wings to amp up their behavior even higher. Why not take the money from AF and invest in some higher end clothing, hoping those guys will pay you even more to not wear their clothes? Sounds both reasonable and logical to me.
Now, I hope I’ve never taken my obnoxiousness to The Situation’s level, but I think I could have given him a run for his money on the occasional Saturday night at the turn of the century.
I’m old and have gray hair…not at all the image they want to portray for their brand. If I had any kind of platform at all, I’d go out and dress from head to toe in AF stuff. I’d make sure I was mic’d every time I grunted when transitioning from standing to sitting, and I’d make sure their logo was prominently displayed every time I bent over to pick something up and grab my lower back to aid me in standing upright again.
Cha-ching!
I’m not sure what AF expected when they targeted this market.
If you’re going to dream, dream big. Any idiot can run from the cops or get involved in a car chase with them. It takes a special person to attempt to swim from them. “He just took off, and he got a good head start,” DeMorat said. “He was in a foot chase for a few blocks. Then he ran straight into the water.” Usually, the mugshot section is the Read More ...
I’m so excited about this upcoming royal wedding. Really…seriously. I am. It just got me thinking about the great weddings in history of American Royalty. Jesse Ventura’s commentary in the first video is classic: “Do the rings go on fingers or in noses?” “Looks like two carp in the Mississippi River going after the same piece of corn” Uncle Elmer’s Wedding by TSteck160 And of course, who could forget this Read More ...
Remember paper football? It’s that game we played in middle school where we’d fold paper into a triangle and bump it back and forth across the table until part of the “ball” was over the edge of the table but not falling off. That game curbed much violence at lunch time. Now you can get one of these table top kits and play for real…as real as paper football gets. Read More ...
Unusually cold winters here for the past two years have caused many a palm tree to perish. If you need to remove dead trees and replace them with something more cold hearty, I’ve built up some experience in the past couple of months, and there are two basic methods I’ve used. Method 1 works best for single trees or small doubles/triples. Since the root ball on palms is relatively small and Read More ...
Nonacademic Skills Key to Success – Crazy idea…let’s assign two people to each child born in this country to make sure they learn these intangible skills like reliability and work ethic. We can call these people “Parents”. Even if we can only get one good one per child, it will be progress. 16 Yummy Slow Cooker Desserts – Tadow!

Portraits of Financial Normalcy – Some financial personality categories from @daveramsey. Eight Crazy Constitutional Scenarios – HT @kleinheider. This reminds me of those crazy scenarios that can turn up in baseball. In baseball, they seem to actually turn up eventually too. BMI(wife) < BMI(husband) Means a Happier Marriage – Good news for me. Barring an amputation, no danger of this changing any time soon. Elected Official Constitutional Knowledge: Disgraceful – Read More ...

At least at the University of Georgia, where this anit-Wal-mart column was published in the student newspaper: Many corporations are firing American workers to cut production costs. They then charge American consumers more money than what it took to produce their products. You got that? Companies are charging people more money for a product than it cost to produce the product!!! How disgraceful!!! No mention if the article whether or Read More ...
