Willie Roaf

In this day when all you hear about are sports figures flaming out in major meltdowns, and sometimes dropping dead, it’s cool to hear of someone doing something very smart.  Willie Roaf has opted to retire from the NFL to, get this, go back to school and finish his sociology degree. Very cool, Willie.  Very cool.  Not too many people… (more…)

Lance Bass is gay

This shocking headline has made the rounds in EVERY major media: Lance Bass of *NSYNC Reveals He’s Gay This is so not a story I’m guessing it’s purely a paid promotional item.  I mean, first of all: Any male that looks like Lance ( on the left ) pushing 30 is suspect.  Any guy looking like Joey ( on the… (more…)

Office of Defects Investigation

Got a car you’re not too pleased with or rather suspicious of the quality?  Check out the Office of Defects Investigation to see all the recalls for your car.  It’s actually saved me money.  Very handy page to have at your fingertips.

Curse of the Champions

This is a riveting read. I had always sort of noticed that a LOT of ex-football players seemed to meet horrendous fates upon retirement.  However, according to this story, their suicide rate is SIX times the national average.  That’s JUST suicide.  Many have been convicted of serious crimes ( see OJ among others ).  Even if not put in prison,… (more…)

Idiot Sightings

Got this via email.  Don’t know how accurate it is, don’t care.  It’s just funny! IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD: I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to request the removal of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason: "too many deer were being hit by cars" and… (more…)

You are traveling in a mini-car at a constant speed. On your left side is a double decker bus and on your right side is a fire engine traveling at the same speed as you. In front of you is a galloping pig which is the same size as your car and you cannot overtake it. Behind you is a… (more…)

On being a rock star

I have always loved music. I post on music a lot here.  I started with classical piano training when I was a little kid.  However, my improvising on Bach’s Jesu Joy of Man’s Desire got me tossed from piano lessons.  Once old enough, I played in the school band.  I played trombone, sousaphone, tuba, French horn, baritone, trumpet, or whatever… (more…)

Topless Car Wash

This has been sent to me so many times I feel compelled to post it. Besides, it’s funny!

Carmen Electra does ACDC?

Didn’t take long to get back on this category, but Mrs. Moon ( aka somesortamindo ), filled me in on some gossip. According to media, Carmen Electra is “going to” be single again. According to Mrs. Moon, that means she already is. Now, I can’t help but see the “irony” of the chain of events leading up to this breakup.… (more…)

Drugs are bad…….

…….She was taken to the Laurel County Detention Center. Hamblin said during processing, Fee appeared nervous and fidgety. When he asked her if there was anything else she was hiding, she reportedly told Hamblin that she had a meth pipe hidden in a body cavity. Hamblin declined to state where exactly where the pipe was found. A female member of… (more…)
