Short Creek

Spent the day cruising creeks. Here’s some pics of one of them. This is Short Creek. It’s the shortest known creek in the world at about 100 feet or so. It comes out of one cave and runs right into another. Needless to say, the water stays cool all year long.

More deep thoughts

DON’T SWEAT THE PETTY THINGS AND DON’T PET THE SWEATY THINGS. ONE TEQUILA, TWO TEQUILA, THREE TEQUILA, FLOOR…. ATHEISM IS A NON-PROPHET ORGANIZATION. IF MAN EVOLVED FROM MONKEYS AND APES, WHY DO WE STILL HAVE MONKEYS AND APES? THE MAIN REASON SANTA IS SO JOLLY IS BECAUSE HE KNOWS WHERE ALL THE BAD GIRLS LIVE. I WENT TO A BOOKSTORE… (more…)

What to wear when your wife wants something done

Hope I die before I get old?

In 1965 The Who pretty much defined the mortalistic view of hippie generation by claiming, loudly, “Hope I Die before I get old“. One person didn’t go along with that apparently.

Askmen’s 2006 Most desirable women

Last year I did a thingy on Askmen’s most desireable women.  I looked carefully at that list and picked about 54 “desirables” that were not that desirable to me.  Well, I was kinda on target.  This year’s version of the same list completely replaced 43 of last year’s “most desirable”.  The list in it’s entirity was more desirable to me,… (more…)

Putting out fire, with bleach?

Tim Cole got arrested for DUI.  He wasn’t just a little tipsy, he was .174.  That is smashed.  He’ll do a little time in the pokey, and he’ll lose a paycheck out two.  However, his worst punishment has already been dealt: That folks, is his mugshot.

songs of praise for the hearing impaired ( by the impaired )

My entire life I have been slightly hearing impaired.  Now, I’m not deaf, not even that close to it.  But, I don’t hear so well.  What this situation has done is take ordinary situations and make them that much better more often than not because I didn’t hear a word or two just right.  Now, I finally have the perfect… (more…)

Why we expect so little from athletes

Look closely at their shirt. ( the idiot of the day is whoever made those shirts. )
