Watermelon cake… At first when I saw the description for this dessert, the thought of a watermelon flavored cake didn’t sound too appetizing; however after reading the recipe and seeing the picture… it’s adorable and something I definately am going to try before summer’s out. I do have a few watermelon fan’s in the family! [...]

Up, up and away…. Seems NASA is not having a good day. It was reported by Aviation Week & Space Technology this morning that a special panel studying astronaut health found that on two occasions, astronauts were allowed to fly after flight surgeons and other astronauts warned they were so drunk they posed a safety risk.

Enough corporate futility for one day!
Posted in Stupidity on July 25, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Today has been tough! There’s been entirely too much corporate futility for one day. I’m surrounded by supposedly intelligent people who display such a lack of pure common sense that it’s thrown me into a ranting rave of gargantuan proportions! (How’s that for use of the handy, dandy thesaurus?) Just wanted to make sure I expressed the [...]
Quotes for the Day – Albert Einstein
Posted in Quotes on July 23, 2007 | 3 Comments »
“Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, ….” “It would be possible to describe everything scientifically, but it would make no sense; it would be without meaning, as if you described a Beethoven symphony as a variation of wave pressure.” “So long as they don’t get violent, I want to let everyone [...]

Question for PracticalReasoning….. Is it legal to censure George W. because you don’t agree with his politics? If I remember correctly, didn’t everyone agree or at least agree to [...]

Happy Birthday to the little Dude! One year ago (tomorrow) July 23rd we packed up and headed west for the birth of our first grandson, Ethan. We had a couple days drive in front of us, but we got there as quickly as possible – just in time for him to come home from the hospital. [...]
Forget about the offseason – Let’s get ready to play!
Posted in Football on July 22, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Much has been written and discussed about the woes of the NFL offseason. There has been tragedy and crimes aplenty, so let’s just realize these players are not perfect, they don’t need to be put on a pedastal and idolized. For the ones we lost during the offseason, we mourn; for the ones who committed [...]

Scratch Michael Vick off your fantasy list…
Posted in Football on July 18, 2007 | 1 Comment »
For those of us who had Michael Vick as one of our QB picks for this year’s fantasy teams – time to mark him off and replace him with a law-abiding, truth-telling, and probably less-talented candidate (or maybe not if you have Peyton on your list – but good luck getting him!) It amazes me [...]

Now I normally do not like to make fun of other’s misfortunes; however in this case I can’t help myself. It seems Bill Clinton somehow got stranded in a forest in West Virginia. But he doesn’t know how he got separated from his group and when he tried to find them, no luck. Now I [...]

I was getting ready for work this morning and listening to Good Morning America, when I heard John Edwards say “Make work pay” when asked about what he would do about poverty in America. Not only did my jaw drop at such a stupid response, but the mascara fell leaving a black streak on my [...]
Masters of the Universe

He-Man, Master of the Universe is really my son. He is the real He-Man and is not afraid to admit it. Of course, he was born in 1981 and was at the perfect age for action figures when He-Man was first released. We had all the figures, both good guys and bad guys (that would [...]
