Oh yeah, look at that calendar slackers.  You have yourself twenty-five, count them, 25 days to shop till you proverbially drop to Christmas.  Any ideas on what you’ll be buying for your significant loved ones?  Go ahead and list any ideas you already have in the comments – its not like I’m preventing you from [...]

That’s Nice

You know what’s nice about being drunk?  Not caring, that’s what.  In fact I frequently experience inebriance just for the sensation of not caring.  And, yes, I thank God regularly for ‘Spell Check’ because otherwise half of the things I post would be illegible to the common man.  I mean that by the way.

Pretty soon I’m going to have to “put up, or shut up”, but I’ll be happy to do so just to stop all the non-stop commercials villainizing our would-be leaders.  See, I have pretty much promised that regardless of who makes it into office, I’m not going to trash talk them.  I haven’t trash talked [...]
