A True Travesty...




How sad to see....a vivid sign of our economic times when a snowman is forced to stand on the corner with the rest of the jobless.  Tragic!

Holiday Groovin'

Most of us will be celebrating the holidays with multiple parties, get-togethers, and the ever popular office shin-digs.  So, when the music kicks up and the dance floors are a sea of red, green, sequins, and those really bad holiday sweaters, don't be the only wallflower.  What's this?  You don't have any moves to impress your boss with?  Fear not!  Here are a few cool moves from the pros who knew what it meant to "drop it like it's hot".


 When I see this...my feet just have to move!

Love is In the Air....

You farted in Trader Joe's - m4w

Reply To This Post

You were the tall brunette with the near perfect body that farted in the bread section last night. I was the tall guy next to you that looked over and asked, "Was that you?" You quickly replied "No...Wasn't me!" You almost seemed insulted I would ask. As the stink grew you continued to deny your flatulence, but it was evident. I tried to get rid of the stench by waving 2 loafs of Ciabatta bread. You proceeded to storm off in an angry manner. You are beautiful and even if you are a liar and fart like a Clydesdale, I'd love to meet up sometime.

It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas!

Wow....I was surprised with our first snow of the season this morning.  I do love a white Christmas, except for when it turns brown, or yellow in some patches in the dog field across the way. ;)








CUTEness Overload




This kitty is soooo cute that I don't even pay attention to how annoying that woman's voice is in the video.

Damn That Facebook!!


My questions is this.... what kind of health benefits does this woman have that she can not work for a year and be paid for it all because she is "down in the dumps"?!?  I want her healthcare plan!  I would just be a bit smarter about posting my male dancing photos online OR maybe not friending my boss and/or insurance representative on my Facebook page.  Thinkin outside of the box, I say. :P

 

Facebook photos could be hazardous to your health benefits

November 24, 2009 |  9:00 pm

A Quebec woman says her sick-leave payments were cut off because of photos posted on her Facebook page showing her at a Chippendale's show and other events, according to the CBC broadcast network.   Nathalie Blanchard, 29, was on leave from her job at IBM for the last year and a half because of a diagnosis of major depression. When the payments suddenly stopped recently, she called her employer's insurance company to find out why. In an interview with the CBC, Blanchard said she was told "I'm available to work because of Facebook."
She said the insurance company representative described photos on her Facebook page that showed her at her birthday party, on vacation and at the all-male revue. The company stripped her of her benefits, saying the photos were evidence she was no longer depressed.
Blanchard didn't deny the existence of the photos, but she said they were not a true indication that she had been cured. "In the moment I'm happy," she said in the interview, "but before and after I have the same problems."
She also said her doctor had advised her to have nights out with friends to help her forget her problems. Blanchard is fighting the cutting off of her benefits, and to that end has filed a civil suit in Quebec Superior Court.
Insurer Manulife declined to comment on the case, but in a statement to the CBC it said, "We would not deny or terminate a valid claim solely based on information published on websites such as Facebook."

I'll Sue You, Vegas, for Showing Me a Good Time!

 
Is there no limit to what you can sue for nowadays?  Let's also sue Vegas for supplying unlimited food buffets for $5, contributing to the expanding waistline of America.  Hell!  Sue for the continuous hot, dry weather that would clearly cause skin dryness.  I mean, My God!  How has Vegas and it's many Dens of Sin they call "casinos" been allowed to corrupt people lives with fun all these years?!?  It must stop!  If you ask me, I think the tourists need to be sued for the ridiculous fashion crimes displayed that I had to witness on my Vegas trip...for THAT was the true crime in Sin City.

Gambler Sues Caesars Palace for "Milking" Him

A Las Vegas gambler who lost $112 million in a year is suing casino Caesars Palace, claiming the staff took advantage of him by supplying him with alcohol and drugs.
Terry Watanabe 52, said he lived at Caesars Palace for six months, gambling nonstop on the roulette wheel and slot machines, a story by the Telegraph reported. After a losing streak and running up around $15 million in debt, he was charged with theft, the story said. Watanabe has pleaded not guilty and filed a counter-suit against the parent company Harrah's for fraud, breach of contract, conspiracy and negligence, the story said.
Watanabe also alleges that casino staff gave him prescription painkillers and an unlimited alcoholic beverages, which "rendered him utterly intoxicated and unfit to gamble," the story said. Harrah's denies any wrong doing, and they stand by their long history of "responsible and ethical practices," the story said.

Quick Survery....


Is it too soon to put up my Christmas tree?  Usually I wait til December, but I just bought a new one....and I think I'm too lazy to put it up in the attic, only to take it back down in a few weeks.  I don't want to be like the marketing morons at the malls who cram Christmas down your throat while you are simply trying to shop for that cute yet slutty Halloween costume.  I, also, don't want to treat Thanksgiving like the red-headed step-child and not give it recognition.  Hmm....what to do?....what to do?

Sometimes, Death is appropriate....

Having lived in the Northern Virginia/DC area and only a few miles from where one of the victims was shot and killed, I remember the terror people, including myself, felt during that time.....afraid to pump their gas, or walk in public view, or how the stations hung up sheets around the gas pumps for the protection of their customers.  This man, along with Malvo, were terrorists who not only terrorized their victims and the victim's families, but terrorized a whole metropolitan, changing the way people lived their daily lives during their reign.  As far as I am concerned, death is appropriate here.


DC sniper's Muhammad's execution set for tonight

Washington sniper faces execution AFP/Pool/File – Convicted sniper John Allen Muhammad (C) addresses the court in Manassas, Virginia, along with his attorneys …
RICHMOND, Va. – Virginia's governor refused to spare the life of John Allen Muhammad and cleared the way for his execution Tuesday night for the sniper attacks in 2002 that left 10 dead and spread such fear people were afraid to go shopping, cut grass or pump gas. The three-week killing spree in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C., was carried out with a teenage accomplice who is serving life in prison without parole. Muhammad, 48, was to die by injection at 9 p.m. after he exhausted his court appeals and Gov. Tim Kaine denied clemency. Muhammad's attorneys had asked Kaine to commute his sentence to life in prison because they said he was severely mentally ill. "I think crimes that are this horrible, you just can't understand them, you can't explain them," said Kaine, a Democrat known for carefully considering death penalty cases. "They completely dwarf your ability to look into the life of a person who would do something like this and understand why." Muhammad was sentenced to death for killing Dean Harold Meyers at a gas station in northern Virginia. He and his accomplice, Lee Boyd Malvo, also were suspected of fatal shootings in Alabama, Arizona, Louisiana and Washington state. Prosecutors chose to put Muhammad and Malvo on trial in Virginia first because of the state's willingness to execute killers. He and Malvo were also convicted of six other murders in Maryland and both were sentenced to six life terms. The death penalty was later ruled out for Malvo because the U.S. Supreme Court barred the execution of juveniles, who was 17 during the killing spree. The motive for the shootings in the nation's capital region remains murky. Malvo said Muhammad wanted to use the plot to extort $10 million from the government to set up a camp in Canada where homeless children would be trained as terrorists. But Muhammad's ex-wife has said she believes the attacks were a smoke screen for his plan to kill her and regain custody of their three children. Muhammad has never testified or explained why he directed the attacks that terrorized the Washington region, with victims gunned down while doing everyday chores. People stayed indoors, and those who had to go outside weaved as they walked or bobbed their heads to make themselves less of a target. The terror ended Oct. 24, 2002, when police captured Muhammad and Malvo as they slept at a Maryland rest stop in a car they had outfitted so a shooter could hide in the trunk and fire through a hole in the body of the vehicle. Muhammad had been in and out of the military since he graduated from high school in Louisiana and entered the National Guard. A convert to Islam, John Allen Williams would later change his name to Muhammad. He joined the Army in 1985 and trained in Washington state as a combat engineer. He did not take special sniper training but earned an expert rating in the M-16 rifle — the military cousin of the .223-caliber Bushmaster rifle used in the sniper shootings. However, his life was full of failure. He was twice divorced, and after serving in the first Iraq war, he could never find financial stability. He opened a karate school but it didn't last; neither did his car repair shop. The man who looked for self-discipline in exercise and Islam found himself living in a homeless shelter in 2001 and a few months later was accused of shoplifting food. On Tuesday, Muhammad met with immediate family members but did not have a spiritual adviser, Virginia Department of Corrections spokesman Larry Traylor said. The families of those killed were ready for execution day. Cheryll Witz was one of several victims' relatives who planned to watch the execution. Malvo confessed that, at Muhammad's direction, he shot her father, Jerry Taylor, on a Tucson, Ariz., golf course in March 2002. "He basically watched my dad breathe his last breath," Witz said. "Why shouldn't I watch his last breath?" Death penalty opponents planned vigils across the state, and some were headed for Jarratt, about an hour south of Richmond, for the execution at Greensville Correctional Center. Beth Panilaitis, executive director of Virginians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty, said those who planned to protest understand the fear that gripped the community, and the nation, during the attacks. "The greater metro area and the citizens of Virginia have been safe from this crime for seven years," Panilaitis said. "Incarceration has worked and life without the possibility of parole has and will continue to keep the people of Virginia safe." Kaine, Virginia's first Roman Catholic governor, has openly expressed his faith-based opposition to capital punishment, but promised as a candidate in 2005 that he would carry out Virginia's death penalty law despite his beliefs.

In September, Kaine delayed the October execution of a former
Army intelligence worker from Maryland convicted of killing a northern
Virginia couple, saying he needed more time to consider the case. That
execution is scheduled for next week.

OdLibby*s is Born!





It started off as a simple hobby of jewelry making to de-stress at home, but has recently turned into the beginnings of a (side) cash cow.  At the suggestions of my friends and family, I have begun to sell some of my pieces, and I am pleased that so many have shown their approval to my work.   Therefore, OdLibby*s has been born, created from the names of my beloved(s), Odysey and Liberty, who have shown their support by sitting at my feet under the dining room table while I work.  Each one of my pieces is handcrafted by myself, and given a name to distinguish their unique quality.  I am a total magpie when it comes to shiny, sparkly things, so it has been only natural that I find enjoyment in creating "baubles" with my own hands. :)  I find inspiration from many different things that I come across in this world from nature, culture, history, or the arts...from the simple to the exoticI think it is awesome that I can share with others, while making a little cash in the process.  Who wouldn't love that? ;)  I plan on posting some of my work here in the hopes of inspiring others.  Definitely, share your comments. :)

Color ChicChickory Pretty...

Check out my new digs!  I noticed a fellow blogger's page and thought, Hmm...how nice.  So, did a little bit of re-decorating myself.  Oh... the many ways to waste time at work. ;)

Typical Man


Even at the young age of 4 years, my nephew cannot hide his disdain for how long my sisters, mom and I can look at one aisle of items in the Walmart Christmas Dept. :)




What Have I Been Up Too?

Okay...so I took some time away from my therapeutic blogging to waste time and catch up with old friends on Facebook. Seems to be a virtual high school reunion on that site...but all in all, some good times reminiscing. HOWEVER...I have missed my quirky fellow bloggers that I so enjoyed whittling the work hours away with. :) I have lots of "catch-up" reading to do too because from what I can see so far I have been missing pregnancies, more fabulous Paris life, never-ending photoshop madness, slacking on my SlackerChic fix, and the always fulfilling TastyCakes...oh how I've missed you guys!

That Time at the Pond....



Place: Walney Pond
Time: at Dusk....best time to go, cuz the critters come out. :)




Does this remind anyone else of Monet's Water Lilly Pool?




It's hard to tell here, but the black object in the water is a rather large beaver chewing on something he found very tasty. I was only two feet away from him, and he didn't seem to mind me at all.


Night approaches



This tree had something to say




My assistant and companion during this little excursion, my nephew, Madden. (Yes, the cheeks are real)




More reflections.... sometimes the most special places are within walking distance.

I title this one....WTF? Marketing


Generally, I think the Axe commercials are cute and 
clever, but this one definitely left me bewildered.

Just what exactly does it promote? Cannibalism? 
Self Mutilation? Anything but deodorant, it appears.

I'm a bit grossed out at the whole dipping of fruit into his navel, but I must admit I have wanted to take a bite out of a fine piece of chocolate ass before. Dare I ask.....
just what is this guy pouring into those girls cups?  
Chocolate piss?  

You know the marketing crew was fighting the urge
to shamelessly plug the whole "Dick in a Box" craze
brought on by JT and Samberg.





Worst Horror Movie Monster Ever!

How could anyone think these adorable furballs with their cute oversized feet and twitching noses could ever be terrifying?  I'd say a look into that woman's dental work (or lack thereof) was the most terrifying part of that whole clip.  Guess there is a shortage of actors with good teeth in low income horror.

Damn, those bill collectors! They just don't give up!

Deadbeat: Man dead for 450 years gets TV bill

Aaron Crowe


A German mathematician who died 450 years ago was sent a letter demanding he pay long-overdue TV license fees, according to a Reuters story.

The bill from Germany's GEZ broadcast fee collection office went to the last home address of Adam Ries, an algebra expert who bought the house in 1525. A club in his honor was set up at the home 400 years later.

The head of the club returned the letter to GEZ, explaining that Ries died in 1559, centuries before the invention of television and radio. She received another reminder a few weeks later.

Gather the Girls...It's time for Movie Night!!

Attention Ladies! 3 hours of blue penis in theaters now!! Yes, that's correct. The movie, Watchmen, came out this past weekend, and Billy Crudup’s full frontal, cerulean blue superhero character, named Dr. Manhattan, is only part of the distracting weirdness. Here was one movie-goer's review....

"There is indeed shitloads of blue wang. And it's huge. In the comic book, it's very average, and uncut, but the film is completely the opposite. Massive and circumcised. Given that it's digital, was it Crudup or his agent that insisted on the impressive cut cock?"

All I can say is that it's about time they came out with a "Girlie" movie that I could actually sit through and enjoy!

Over 20 years, and it's healing powers still abound.

In these days of my own, personal economic uncertainties such as seeing my parents work so long and hard only to lose almost half of their 401K the very year they have turned 65, to getting told by my boss, this week, to bring in cash for the company or lay off some of my staff, I find myself pressing replay on one of the best songs written from one of the best bands on Earth. I love this video version of U2 at Live Aid 1985 despite the bad quality of the video, the 2 second switch to some cartoon, or even Bono's sexy ridiculous 80's hair because, truly, all I really want to do is slow dance with Bono amidst thousands of people to the melody of "Bad". Then I will know it will all be well again.


You almost had me fooled

Despite the fact that this video is pretty interesting, I was almost convinced of the credibility of zoologist beauty, Miss Rita Mehta until she remarked on the "amazing innovation in feeding behavior in fishes". Fishes? Was I taught wrong cuz I believe the plural term of fish is just fish. She does seem to be well-versed in the technique of oral suction, however.

Good wholesome entertainment for the Chillens.

Now I understand why when I asked my 3 yr old nephew to hand me something, he replied with..."Grab that shit , it's Yours, Bitch!"



Mr Rogers would turn in his grave!

All the Single Ladies!

FIERCE!

Frankly, I don't understand how they are still single?!





Killing the Blues...Part Deux

Okay...this song makes the Winter Blahs feel like Disney Land. Forget the blues...more like a suicide watch. However, I bet it would sound much better after a few hits on the ganja, but then again, what wouldn't? Hmm...guess Shaft down below does know the cure!

Killing the Blues

Biting winds... Slippery Ice and Snow... 18 degrees days... Dry, itchy pale skin...Cold, painful nipples that could cut glass...and stuck in the house for months!

Got the Winter Blahs? Well, this guy has got the cure!!

Don't believe me? Well, if you aren't convinced, then go ahead and scroll down.....





Karma is a bitch!






....And we wonder why our economy is bad?







Maybe they should look in the Civil War computer archives to see where their last location was logged.






What did they think it was? A fancy P.O.D. storage unit?






Thank God I read this! I was just about to sprinkle my Cream of Wheat with some rat poison.





Damn! They are good!!






Well, that's a relief! I was concerned whether or not I was still at risk of becoming another teen pregnancy statistic.






Actually, I'd like to see just how he did that.

Don't Call It a Comeback!!

Yeah, so I'd like to say that I've been gone on a tropical hiatus with tan, toned, and oiled up natives to keep me company, but alas, that is not the case. The reality being that I was just without internet for awhile, and unable to stalk my favorite blogspots. Lord! The withdrawls were harsh, but now I'm back and got some catching up to do.

Can't Get Gnome Respect!

A new sighting of South America's 'creepy gnome' has caused panic among locals after a group of youngsters claimed a 'midget monster' ran towards them at night.

The teens – who recorded footage of the freaky being on their mobile phone – said they are now too terrified to go out at night.


Footage from last March's sighting....




Latest sighting....



I have to ask....what is everyone so freaked out about? What part of that footage makes this a 'terrorizing monster' story? Don't they know that it's just the Travelocity Gnome doing his research on the tourist spots of Argentina? Let the gnome work in peace, people!
