About Me

My photo
I'm an artist, educator, militant anti-theist , and I write. I gamble on just about anything. And I like beer...but I love my wife. This blog contains observations from a funny old man who gets pissed off every once in a while.

MONDAY #1997



There's a lot I don't like about war, but the warriors isn't one of them.

I watched a whole clip about these Russian people drove for miles trying to escape a forest fire. At one point the flames whipped across the road.
 I couldn't understand the language, but it was stated a man and woman rather calmly discussed if they were going to die or not. I mean...damn.
I swear I smelled the smoke before the film was half over.

I made money on both the Indy 500 and the NASCAR race. The next big horse race I am giving any and all comers California Chrome (going for the Triple Crown) and I'm taking the field. I think I have the edge, but we shall see.




“If he’s going that fast he has no time for a ticket,” said no cop ever.



Another pretty good beach drawing...


A review of all studies on the the effect of sugar on children's' behavior and cognitive functions found that it had no effects (as compared to other sweeteners). The strong belief of parents to the contrary may be due to expectancy.


Said to be true...


It’s not the voices themselves, doctor, that drive me crazy. It’s the prepositions they end sentences on.


 I say Fuck You! Let the old geezer watch porn if he wants to...who's it going to hurt? God?

Some black people are very creative when it comes to language...
And when I point it out...I'M RACIST? I think not.

American foreign policy wrapped up in one video clip...
That was fucking hilarious.

 I don't think those words have ever been arranged in that sentence before.

I'll let the images speak for themselves...


You could rob a bank with nothing more than Game of Thrones spoilers.



I like smart people. Believe it or not, hauling drinking water from the well to the house is a big problem in many parts of the world. Now someone has invented a huge water container that rolls...

This is an example (probably exaggerated) of why we should not take polls seriously... 

I want this everywhere feasible...


BARS: The official sunblock of the American South




My wife wanted me to treat her like a princes, so I got drunk and drove her into a tunnel pylon.





People used to call me gay when they found out I jacked off my brother. But his arm was broken and I suffered from acute empathy.





I’ve actually been upset that I wanted to have a private call and the phone cord didn’t reach to the door.



 I find that exceedingly humorous.


Can you tell what this is?

When I was in middle school, my friends and I would go camping and play poker for .22 bullets just like these...


I am old enough to have been upset when I had a report on Mice due and my sister had the ‘M’ encyclopedia for her report on mitochondria.




Ladies and gentlemen, my very first Kardashian post...

A pretty cool thrift shop find...

Sometimes when I feel sad I remember Isaac Newton’s hair…



When you are real lonely, you think about bathtubs being just reverse boats.



Here's the link to the article if you care to read it...



NOBODY in the movie Catching Fire actually caught fire. That’s some real bullshit.



Photography...
 That is a great photograph.

Read these and then tell me a rational mind was a work...


Have you ever parsed a sentence like that?

I, not being a big city boy, find living in crowded cities distressing...
 ...but then there are views like this...

There are two basic kinds of people...
 Speaking of...

A car record player...
 Never heard of it.

Question: Who is the stupidest....
 The guy who tried to open a beer with a chain saw or the guy who spent a lot of time and money to film it in slow motion?

Photography...


Once the girl who was writing everyone’s grades wrote 47 for my final grade, but the teacher thought it was 97…and that’s the story of how I passed Chemistry.



AND THEN THERE'S THIS...
Bedrooms of the fallen...youngsters who did our bidding and never made it home...

Holy shit, that's a powerful series of photographs. Do you have a link to where more are, or what they're from, by chance?

"This Isn't Happiness" is a site that has a little bit of everything...including great photography.
You can set it up for them to email new stuff and they roll in at about 30 a day.
Many (most?) come with no credit, which is one reason I can't give credit...alas.

I realized after I posted that I was asking a man who almost adamantly doesn't give credit to cite an image. Sending me to the site (which is fantastic) was all I really wanted. Thank you!
