The Steel Pig must be saved

The Humongous Steel Pig Mascot is for sale on Craigslist... There are so MANY things you can do with a giant steel pig, but my wife shoots down EVERY SINGLE ONE. And then she wonders why I'm not rich. How can I get rich when all of my grandiose endeavors are blocked at every turn?

I'm going to put cryptonite in your beer...

Lois lane comic on ebay by somebody I don't even know I'm disinclined to pay 13 bucks for a ten cent comic book, but this one is kind of funny, I like to think Superman has a dark side just like captain Kirk... Making Lois ride in that thing is just humiliating... LOL Lois Lane is super pissed... Looks like her rival Lana is already on her tiny cellphone telling everyone.

When all else fails, animal photos.

WHY IT TAKES several rings...

Some callers surely wonder why it always takes us about 8 rings to answer the phone here at the Restless Mouse Novelty Company. You see, our business line is routed to an old phone with a real bell in it, and it's LOUD SHRILL and OBNOXIOUS. I have a night job, so when people call mid-morning, we are still drinking coffee, coughing and scratching ourselves. Naturally when the phone rings we are all "CRAP! Already? Stupid phone!!" Then we laugh at our crappy customer service attitudes. After that, it takes maybe two more rings to compose oneself, another to cough some more (And nobody even smokes here!)... Only then are we ready to answer the phone in a pleasant and professional manner. So, bear with us.

Washington State - The Evergreed State

We are mailing our ballots back today, or soon anyway- Wasn't going to but I want to vote NO on a roads and transit tax- That's supposed to be what all the gas tax was for. Anyway, it's mainly to widen certain roads to benefit developers and bring in EVEN MORE people. If it was just for transit I might have considered it. They will probably just tax & build whatever they want anyway, that's what they usually do. All you who live in more enlightened states or less populated areas may commence feeling smug now.

Today's snake in the toilet story

It was probably only a 6 and a half foot python. The media likes to exaggerate.

Politics- latin "Many blood sucking insects"

With Election Day less than three weeks away, Venus Velazquez hopes voters will look past her Wednesday night drunken-driving arrest as they cast ballots in the intense, sometimes bruising contest for an open seat on the City Council. (Seattle P-I) Yeah, but you know what? I don't think I want to dive into the cesspool known as the "voting booth" anymore. Been voting for 25 years, and nothing good has come out of that.
