About Me

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.

SATURDAY #2480


One Of My Very Own…




>
My wife sent me this picture. It's her idea of getting ready for the storm.

>
Last week the winner only missed 11 points. Here's this week's games. Pick a winner and place the numbers 1 thru 15 according to how confident you are in the game.

>
It's called a fire tornado...

I had no idea he was this talented.

CNN just ran eye-witnesses describing how the latest school shooter asked people to stand up and state whether they were Christian, then telling them that they were about to see Jesus. Then the reporter said, "After a short break, we will discuss if these shootings were religiously motivated." 
Did I miss something?

UPDATE ON THE KEY PACKETS I AM STILL PLACING ALL OVER THE STATE

I get a lot of feedback from people who find and take one of the packets. Some think that it was part of a scavenger hunt; others that it is a method a spy used to drop information. Most of them state that they were hesitant to take it since it looked so "prepared" or "carefully placed." Some, not a lot, but some tell me that it's the greatest thing they have ever found and that I am a remarkable man and should keep up the good work. Those make it all worthwhile.
One guy, named Carson, found one and got in touch with me, so I sent him to the tutorial. He wrote back that he would look for others. I wrote in FO a few weeks ago that "Carson had entered the game." Well, a couple of days later he wrote that he had found two more, and added this:

"I still have all of the other packets intact on my desk."
In the game, indeed.

Some of the trees and/or utility poles in prime locations have several keys still in place, since the removers have no square drive screw driver to remove them, so they just rip off the plastic bag. 
Well, I have decided to up the ante, as it were. I had another rubber stamp made and now, this is how the packets look.

In all packets I include a business card with Folio Olio's address, because I really like hearing how the people felt finding such an object. I have now added this to the back of all the cards:

So, I've found a contrarian who disregarded the DO NOT REMOVE stamp. Well, I like contrarians! You will fit right in with the other worldwide viewers of Folio Olio. Check the address on the back of this card and give us a try.


I am very curious to see if the DO NOT REMOVE deters people from removing a one dollar bill left out in plain sight.
And believe it or not, I have a MUCH bigger surprise planned for the future. I will let you know when they reach fruition...but trust me, I will be fucking awesome!

My wife once confessed to me that she used to put out for pancakes.

If you are going to walk a mile in my shoes, could you pick up some beer on the way back?

Grave for Stonewall Jackson's amputated arm — he lost the arm after he was accidentally fired upon by Confederate troops at the Battle of Chancellorsville

A photograph of a man who crossed the Delaware with George Washington. This is Conrad Heyer, born in 1749 and photographed in 1852 at age 103.


And... 
In 1905, film pioneers Janaki and Milton Manaki shot a film of their grandmother, Despina working a spinning wheel. Despina was 114 years old, which means she was born in 1791.

 Why doesn't somebody shoot that bastard?

“He lived his life as if afraid that he might break it.”


>
Can we blame this on corporations owning prisons and lobbying for laws that will increase their bottom line?
But there may...just may...be an explanation. By locking up more violent criminals, violent crime SHOULD decrease. Anybody have an opinion on this?


>

I think that the most often phrase spoken is “Well, fuck.”


>
It's all funny and games until a jet crashes on you.

>

Incoming rounds always have the right of way.


>
Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

I spend a lot of time apologizing for what I say when someone wakes me up.

Secret giraffe handshake
Reminds me of my honeymoon.

It said that these coins were trapped inside a clothes dryer for several years.
 Could that be true? I think it could; perhaps in the outer rim or some such shit.

Personing is hard without beer.

After all these years I’ve started to have erectile difficulties. My wife bought me Viagra. I bought her a treadmill.

 This lady had a piercing studio in a pirate port.
She charged a buck an ear.
A buck an ear.

Sometimes I imagine Darth Vader storming through the Death Star turning off lights, mumbling about we ain't lighting the universe.


>
Remember the good old days.
She only got one in the right list. She does make tender statements to children. But she is a slam dunk lock on the left list.


>
NOTE: I've put all the gifs at the end to, hopefully, give them more time to fully load. We shall see.

Too windy, but they are supposed to have brakes to stop just such a thing.

12 year old reproduces Toews' trick shot.

Let me get this straight. The guy was raised by animals in the jungle with no human contact whatsoever and he named himself George?


>

Almond harvesting
Can we assume it also vacuums them up?

I've seen this before.
A police sniper took two shots at a hostage taker and couldn't believe he missed. Then his buddy pointed out that his scope may could see over the brick wall but the barrel couldn't.

Are you as good at your job as this bird is at his?

>
What a useful idea.

>

It concerns me when someone comes out of the bathroom stall and has to wash their hands all the way up to their elbows.


>
I never knew it worked that way.

>

 If the movie theater slightly lowered their candy prices I wouldn't have to duct tape candy around my wife's torso like a suicide bomber.


>
I would like to meet this guy.
I know so many people just like that guy. In my opinion they are national treasures. You think that guy would ignore the DO NOT REMOVE stamp on my new packets? You can bet your sweet ass he would, and mumble a "Fuck you" as he walked off.

Guy looking for coins playing Aerosmith on the sidewalk, when....

Speaking of superstars, it must be hard to remain humble.

My wife is so addicted to technology that she just bought a wireless bra.

 This is how they excluded blacks from having meaningful votes.
 So they redrew the districts to have all black locks, but then the other politicians don't owe blacks anything. That's called shooting yourself in the foot.
