It's the eve of 420 and you don't have to be high to enjoy the following links, but it couldn't hurt.

When this clock goes into production, it will be featured in my den.

Ballpark promotions that went wrong.

Various images that made me laugh (sometimes humorlessly):
Current resident
Your pet as a rug
If Homer's car were real
Hillbilly Christmas gift
Which is the bigger idiot - the guy dressed like this or the guy who is willing to drink?

Easiest job in the world? Caribbean weatherman. Practice that delayed over-reaction, will ya!

No way! Of all the dogs I ever met that could be classified as dumb, all but one was a lab. Any list that comes up with anything else as the dumbest dog ever is lying, and any list that puts a lab on a smartest list is full of bullshizz!

The one outlier was a weimereiner...however you spell it. I don't condemn that breed, though. :)

I'm surprised no one in particular *coughamycough* has commented on the Bulldog being third dumbest. Especially after my anti-Gator comments... ;)

Dumb Criminals And Other Court Type Stuff Part 3

Another small collection of weird legal matters. Yeah research, that's the ticket; Too manly for the ladies' room; Chi-tonw blues; Cat's got yer what?; and finally, I have no idea what it's like to be busted for DUI, taken for mugshots wearing a shirt displaying my love for midget sex, and then being forever haunted by that image surfacing on the internet, but I know who to ask.

My Child Bride

I've mentioned my wife, Brenda in numerous posts. Thought it was about time to introduce (at least her picture) her to my on-line friends. This is also the only picture to which she consented. Go »
