Snuggie? nope. Slanket? nope.

Apparently THIS is the original.

At least that is what the box says. And this one is "like seen on TV". I present for your enjoyment...

THE COZY BLANKET!!!

No Comment

I mean really... what could I possibly say that this book cover doesn't say for itself?

I'm a geek

I'm even what some would call an Apple geek.

but these folks have me beat in all things Apple geekery

wrong

It's people like this that help me work on patience. Rant follows picture:



What kind of senseless idiot parks like this? If it was a Hummer... a real honest to goodness Hummer, I would almost - ALMOST cut him/her some slack. Real Hummers are REALLY big vehicles, and certainly hard to park. If this genius drove an H2 (read: glorified Suburban) I would again, ALMOST cut him/her some slack.

BUT NO. This rocket scientist drives an H3. This fine piece of automotive shite is built on the same chassis (GMT355) as the Chevy Colorado (The small pickup):



Which is only an updated version of the S-10:



From which we got Jimmy:




Which was re-badged as the Oldsmobile Bravada:




So in essence - this two-bit, good-for-nothing tool is driving a modernized (albeit boxy) Oldsmobile Bravada - hardly a large vehicle, and DEFINATELY park-able.

People like this give all Hummer drivers a bad name.

Disclaimer - I have a pretty strict rule about what pictures I post on this blog. I generally only post pictures that I have taken. So, the disclaimer is that the only picture I took in today's post is the first one. The others come from google's image search.

How can I title this?

Wyoming Rules?

Wyoming's God is Awesome?

Toyota Camry's God is awesome?

I know - the best title for this post is:

This is the type of thing you miss when you move "back east"

Best Funeral Lunch Ever

Yes, that's right, I love funeral potatoes. At this particular funeral there were seven varieties of this tasty dish(four pictured below). And yes, the one in the top-left corner has crumbled ruffles potato chips on top.

Best
Funeral
Lunch
EVER.

No... Really

I don't have anything against green Ford Tauruses, I promise.

This champion pulled up next to me at a traffic light yesterday. Not sure which I like better, the hubcaps, or the aftermarket chrome-ish skull rising from the hood. I think I just like that dude went through all that trouble on what I think is a grandma car. Just click on it for a better view of the FINE, FINE details.

And it shall be known as...

THE DEATH TAURUS!

Fashion

The only thing missing from this dream ensemble is socks with sandals.

This isn't funny

I just thought it was cool. How often do you go out on a bike ride and pull up behind a guy riding one of these?

Maybe we should have a little chat

just be warned... if you come to church with me - don't walk on the sidewalks.

I've only been at this church for 3 months or so and of all the weeks, I've only seen this person ACTUALLY IN THE PARKING LOT and not in the grass.... like twice.

maybe I should start taking pictures of that.

I'm a feminist... no, really.

See? I have this poster to prove it!

Okay, so I don't really have this poster. I don't know about you - but where I attended college, the professors like to use their office doors like car bumpers...

no, they don't smash them into other doors. They decorate the doors to better reflect their inner selves. This little number caught my eye on a recent trip to my alma mater.

Up the Down Staircase

It may be difficult to see from the photos, but this is a ramp... with stairs at the top. So I hope you're not in a wheelchair.

Two Buck....

Originally from 5/22/2009:

Most Californians (or anyone else who has Trader Joe's Markets) know about Two Buck Chuck, the mystery cheap wine.

Well, in Wallgreens the other day, I had to pick up this $2 Choc. Yes, yes, that IS 14 oz of chocolate.

Note the "Flavored" under the Milk Chocolate label:




*** UPDATE *** 06/15/2009 ***

Thanks to my friend K.S. I went into Walgreens today, and GUESS WHAT?!?!

Mini Crapper

I like Mini Coopers. In fact, as far as car lust goes, I love them.

But seriously... if you want cool ground effects on YOUR Mini, at least get the kit that has a real grill - and not lick 'em - stick 'ems:



seriously.

Steaming Pile of...

I know, I know... the truck is "so hot it's WHITE HOT!! Like with WHITE HOT FLAMES AND STUFF!!!"

But to me, it just looked like steam. Yes, steam.... issuing forth from a steaming pile of what the American Automobile Industry has become.

Parking Problems

You may notice a bit of an occassional theme on this blog.

I am a parking snob.

I go to great efforts to park within the lines. And I don't think it is asking too much for others to do the same. We have parking spots for a reason.

Two weeks ago at church... curb? what curb?



I figured it was a one time deal, so I took the picture. Yah, not so much.

Fast forward a week. Repeat offender. And you can't tell from this angle, but the right front wheel is completely in the grass.

Feline Gender Identity Crisis

Not sure which I like more - the unknown gender, or the optional names... as if a cat would actually answer when called anyway.

Maybe if it was a cool car

This is probably some big joke that, not being a South Park fan, I don't get. But google didn't turn up anything for Cartman + Saturn.



I guess when you love South Park and you love Saturn... there's just nothing else to do.

Windmill Fin or Giant Butter Knife?

I can't say for sure what this is. I just know that it was so long it took me a few MINUTES to pass it on the freeway. It was headed north toward Wyoming where they grow wind... so perhaps it is part of a really big windmill.

You know you live in the Ghetto when...

The stethoscope is chained to the table.

Road Rage

No wonder people are so angry on the roads...

This bus was in front of me this morning.

Is it bad luck if the evil-satan-devil-bus crosses your path? Like a black cat?

I hope not.

Tasty Treats

There is a time and a place for everything. And something about this just doesn't seem right:




What is that on top of the toilet paper dispenser you ask?



Who doesn't eat milky way and baby ruth while they poop? And knowing the people I work with, those candy bars will stay there for months.

Is this even legal?

If I were an officer of the law... I would pull this person over for having and obstructed rear window. I would, of course, also mock this person's narrow minded hatred... but it would start with the obstructed window.

The Right Tool for the Right Job?

I don't think GM had this in mind when they designed the Camaro.
