It was nice to get in and out, but, driving away, I started wondering... does this mean I could bleed out in record time? Please donate so that, if pumas or rabid hedgehogs attack, my life might be saved.http://www.bourbonrocks.com/2010_03_01_archive.html#1133216137352062101noreply@blogger.com (me)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7181146.post-764104686271740361Tue, 09 Mar 2010 01:03:00 +00002010-03-09T11:01:35.390-08:00Google has pushed back the cut-off date and will support ftp publishing until 5/1/10.

I just watched Avatar and have only one thing to say; Americans are hypocrites. It's a horrendous crime when a more advanced species comes to our planet with one goal: getting us out of the way, so that they may drain our resources. When we do it to others, they're blue monkeys who don't understand.Somewhere in Studio City, Bill Pullman is rolling over on his futon.http://www.bourbonrocks.com/2010_02_01_archive.html#2536395630180436609noreply@blogger.com (me)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7181146.post-1429134688812519458Fri, 19 Feb 2010 07:41:00 +00002010-02-18T23:50:24.068-08:00I can't get my head around which is worse: me not leaving the house tonight because I have a pimple, having a pimple or admitting I watched The Real Housewives of Orange County.

All of the toys I've ever purchased for The Kitten have kept him entertained for exactly .25 seconds. The monkey, my most successful purchase to date, was only his favorite after it fell apart.

Not like a kid who spends the first two years peeing or puking on things, then about 8 years breaking stuff or writing on it, then spends the next 15 years sitting around staring at you like you’re a dumb ass. [Oldest Daughter] is already in that period.

I got those teeny little white lights and some teeny little blue ones, too. I can't stand the icicles or multi-colored big bulbs, so know I shopped for weeks trying to find these things. They're up and on the deck, which is something I haven't done in years, because it's not so much the celebration of Christmas as it is of global warming.http://www.bourbonrocks.com/2009_12_01_archive.html#252234688018296496noreply@blogger.com (me)
