"Most of the time I don't have much fun. The rest of the time I don't have any fun at all." - Woody Allen

Mike Tyson is getting his own show...on the Animal Planet. Seems appropriate.

Justin Bieber has a bio-pic coming out...in 3D. As proof positive that our God is gracious I do not have a pre-teen or early teen daughter.

Why, in the middle of a bunch of B&W copying, does my color cartridge need replacing?

You've probably heard about the two sisters who were released from lengthy prison sentences on the condition that one donate a kidney to the other, who is dying of kidney failure. Gov. Haley Barbour says he pardoned the sisters for economic reasons. The state is too strapped financially to pay for the sick sister's treatment. So now that they're no longer wards of the state the transplant will be paid for by...? The family is too poor to afford the surgery.

Gerta passed her test today. But the tech who administered it isn't real familiar with '67 VW's. I ran it up on the rollers, shut it off and got out as instructed. He got in, started it up and dumped the clutch, killing the engine. Then he couldn't get it started again. In a VW of that vintage you have to turn the key all the way back to the left before you can turn it again to the start position. He eventually figured that out. At the end he peered through the windshield looking for a VIN number that isn't there. (It's behind the spare tire under the front hood.)

But the real problem happened as I was getting out of the car. I was wearing my old Rx glasses with the sunglasses attachment (magnetic) and my regular Rx pair fell out of my pocket. That caused the left lens to fall out of the frame. I've put it back in four times already, obviously with limited success. I'm so near-sighted I'm considered legally blind by the MDV without my glasses and that old Rx is only good for driving. Can't read a word with them.
This could get interesting. The next step is adhesive caulk. Unless I can figure out a way to make duct tape work.

Speaking of duct tape, I missed the opportunity to see Red Green when he made an appearance at the Ace Hardware in Litchfield Park, near where we meet for church. That was back in November. Yesterday I was in there to get some supplies for the job I was doing and I asked her if they had a good turnout to see him. Yes, the line ran the length of the store. I asked why he came to their store and she said they sell more 3-M products than any store in the district and he's their paid spokesman. So now you know who makes duct tape.

Sen. Reid (D - Nev.), as in the Sen. Reid who is chairman of the Senate and barely survived a challenge from a Tea Party candidate, said the Tea Party will quickly disappear. He explained they arose as a result of high unemployment. With the economy now recovering and lower unemployment rates just around the corner the Party's cause will soon disappear and the Party with it.
He'd better hope so, 'cause you can bet they've got that on tape.
