Pokity Poke Poke Poke.

We just got back from the Burg. Deb had to get some tax forms. We picked up some supplies at Sam's.

We were going to use the Red Lobster gift card we got. But they told us it would be a two hour wait. In a word...Bullshit. We went across the street to the Colonial Diner and were seated in 5 minutes. Had an excellent Lemon Chicken and a Cannoli for desert.

We went up to Best Buy and I got a CD. I wanted to get two more, but they weren't in stock.

When we left the Diner it had started snowing. It continued the whole way home. There's a coating right now. We may get a little or a lot. I have no clue.

So it's pretty much like normal.

That's what it is outside, right now.

Been a pretty good week. Coming into a half decent weekend. They're playing "Strap On Baseball" on Stern,... don't ask.

Getting ready for a nice relaxing weekend and hopefully can get a few things done here as well.

Stay warm

Not as bad as we thought.

They were calling for over a foot of snow today. We might have gotten 5 or 6 inches. The east coast (New York, Boston) may get hammered, but we're ok. That means I get to watch the game on my crappy black and white 1 inch watchman at work instead of a color tv at home.

The Pacifica is AMAZING in snow. I have tried on two separate occasions to do doughnuts and I can't get it to spin. It just wants to stay stable and straight. But if there's a way to put it into a snowbank, I'm sure i'll find it.

I did the gym today and went to a clients house. She had emailed me (which I can't find) to tell me not to come over. I came back home and cleaned for awhile. We had some great chili for lunch then kept cleaning and washing clothes. We straightened out the bathroom a bit. Chrissy did an amazing job on the tub, really made it shine. Then we kicked back and watched "Sci-Fi Friday" and the kids got on W.O.W. I'm watching Battlefield Earth now and you're reading this.

Winter.....finally.

We got about 2 inches of snow today and they're expecting a "significant" amount Saturday and Sunday. It took long enough.

I need to either make tons of money doing this page or a sizeable stream of income from some other source besides work. I like doing this, in fact, there's a ton of stuff I can write on here, but I really don't have enough time in the day. I should charge a million dollars for subscriptions to the site...it's alot, but I only need ONE member.

Today is Black Thursday. Don't buy anything, send a message to King George that we are not amused.

Speaking of amusing, notice how there's a dirty bomb heading for Boston but the terror alert has remained unchanged. That's because it was a re-election device.

Ok. Outta here. Cya later.

A Visit From Royalty

Well, almost.

Laura Swisher stopped by and checked out my blog. That's very cool. Thanks Swish.

I'm finally getting my shit together after the holidays. I realized that things start getting screwed up before the holiday. I start losing track of everything and everything gets disorganized. Then, around the middle of January it starts coming back together.

I've been listening to a lot of hate speech radio lately. I can believe that people who listed to this warped logic enough can start to believe it. It's a good idea to find out how the enemy thinks, ya know.

Don't forget to boycott all goods and services on Inauguration day, or Black Thursday as I like to call it.

It took me 3 passes, but I finally got the router hooked up to the internet. And, as a plus, my old switch works with it. Now I can hold off until I get the wireless laptop to get the wireless hub.

Speaking of wireless, I picked up a set of wireless headphones the other day. They work clear across my house. It'll be nice when I'm wandering around at night.

They're starting to use the turnstiles at work. Remember, it's not safety, it's another level of control. They work with my badge, but I'm gonna stay away from them until I absolutely have to use them.

Lot's of little stuff happening. Keep lookin' in and I'll talk atcha later.

Kuwait Update

Pretty sure I told you that Billy, my stepson, was headed to Iraq. They moved his time up to this past Sunday evening instead of tomorrow. I chatted with him on Yahoo a few hours before he had to form up. I told him to message us as soon as he could.

It was a 17 hour ride on a cargo plane, he said it wasn't too bad. Anyway, there was a message on my Yahoo less than 24 hours after he left and I chatted with him the next night!

They have a tent set up as a computer lab that they can access pretty much anytime. He said that a lot of sites are blocked, but this one isn't. So I guess I have to be the voice of truth to our boys overseas. So pay attention...

I have the world's largest penis.

There will be more later.

Stay strong.

Ain't Nothin' But a Swish Thang, Baby.

We have a threat of ice tonight so, being the snow pussy that I am, I decided to stay home and let my co-worker's drive into ditches.

I was doing a little surfing and had the Tivo running in the background. I always record a show called "Unscrewed with Martin Sargent" on G4Techtv. I was very upset because I'm still recording the time slot, but the geniuses at G4 are putting other shows on which are being erased in a few seconds by me. A month or so back they basically screwed over most of the Techtv people with very few exceptions. One of the screwed from Unscrewed was Laura Swisher.

Let me describe Laura to you. If she never opened her mouth I'd probably fall in love with her anyway. Take a look at her gallery. But the thing that makes her irresistable is that she is INCREDIBLY funny.

They used to always do a gag on Unscrewed about "Laura's Blog", so naturally she didn't have one. Now that she's out auditioning, she has one. Score one for us little guys. Be shallow and petty with us Laura, we can take it. The blog is http://lauraswisher.blogspot.com. Go say hi.

Other than that, I'm just trying to get my sleep back so that I can get to the gym in the mornings. I got the generator started today so we shouldn't have to freeze if the power goes out. I've got some computer clients to go see this week. I almost hit a deer coming home from work the other day....2 feet from the car. Wonderful.

Hang in there kids...Swish honey. :)

2005, Day One

Went over to the inlaws for some pork and sauerkraut, as is the tradition. Came home and VEGGED. It was nice not to do a damn thing for a change.

I was looking for phone stuff today. Trying to get Yahoo Messenger to work in my menu under IM. I couldn't do that, but I finally found the flashlight. It's hella cool.

In my travels I found a site with about 1500 wallpapers for cellphones. I also found THIS very cool site that is for anime/sci fi convention goers that dress up. Some of these costumes are INCREDIBLE. I highly reccommend taking a look.

A couple of great football games this weekend. Today's Michigan/Texas heartbreaker and the Boise State/Louisville squeaker the other nite. I'm currently watching Utah hand Pittsburgh it's ass. (Serve's 'em right for changing their name from Pitt):)

The kids are playing W.O.W. I'm thinking of firing up the XBox. You're reading this.

A Brand Spankin' New Year

Happy New Year Everybody.

We arranged stuff in the kitchen all day. Chrissy went to a "shot to reroll" D&D party with Mike.

We took a break around 5 and took the inlaws up to Angelo's for dinner. Then they wanted to go to "Redneck Heaven" (WalMart). We came back and finished up the kitchen and sat down to watch the ball drop.

Deb was out in a minute. I woke her up at 11:59:50 to watch the ball drop, at 12:00:20 she was snoring again.

What an exciting life we lead. :)

Lookin' forward to the New Year. Hope you have a great one.
