Musings

  • I really need to teachall of the animals to just speak English.
    • Except for Koshka.  Koshka can already make herself understood, and if she doesn’t, she repeats herself at higher and higher volume until she is understood.
  • Thing #929183 that will piss me off about a vendor:  Don’t link your “My Profile” page, which includes email and cell phone contact information, with the database you use to contact me when there is a problem.
  • Thing #929184 that will piss me off about a vendor:  Having your support engineer get pissy because she had to send up smoke signals to my co-worker to get in touch with me because your contact database isn’t connected to my profile on your website.
  • Note to self – Do not tell your daughter that a Creative Writing class is best described as Advanced Bullshitting.
  • Note to self – The appropriate response to “Why do you carry a gun?” is not “Because I’m not a convicted felon.  What’s your excuse?”.
  • I got my scores for the “Backup Gun” match the other weekend, in which I shot a 5 round .38 Taurus revolver, where most of my competitors were carrying pocket 9’s.  My scores weren’t too abysmal, considering my choice of gun, but everyone who shot an automatic with higher capacity shot better than me.  Food for thought.
  • Apparently, Boo has it all planned out.  Once Girlie Bear moves away to college next year, he will move into the basement bedroom, I will move into his room, and Irish Woman will stay in our current bedroom. Not sure what that means for Girlie Bear’s room, but I’m going to claim it right now as my man cave, complete with locking security door and soundproofing.
    • Irish Woman is exercising her executive veto on this measure.  It appears she has her eye on setting up an office once one of the bedrooms becomes available.
  • A lot of our landscaping problems would be fixed rather quickly if I could just get a license to do demolition using explosives.  Just saying.

    Man, I think my Bachelor’s degree actually says, ‘Advanced Bullshitting’ – my papers were things of legend!

    “Any problem can be solved with the proper application of high explosives.”

    My one regret with not sticking with mining engineering as my major.
