  • James, while feeling rather draper,


    touched the fire to grandpa's paper.


    Grandpa jumped a foot or higher,


    dropped the paper and  shouted, "FIRE!"


    "This," said James, "confirms my notion,


    that heat creates both light and motion."
    Mamie often wondered why,


    acids trouble alkali.


    Mamie, in a manner placid,


    fed the cat boratic acid.


    Whereupon the cat grew frantic,


    executing many an antic.


    "Ah!" cried Mamie, overjoyed.


    "Kitty is an alkaloid!"
    If you weigh 200 pounds on Earth, you'll weigh only 76 pounds on Mars.


    You're not overweight; you're just on the wrong planet.

    200lbs is an average good great weight!

    I'd rather be that angular shaped thing proudly reaching out for the sky than lying on the ground, waiting to be merged with dozens of others. I always respected that stubbornness some of the pieces seemed to have - then again, that might just be because I'm an abysmally poor tetris player.
    Just got back from a hot date with my wife to celebrate her new job at one of the big hotels on the Las Vegas Strip.  It was a great night. 


    If you are ever in Las Vegas, and happen to go to the Grand Canal Shops at the Venetian, stop at Emeril's restaurant Table 10.  They have steak there that just melts in your mouth.

    I could use a good steak...  Thanks, Sherwood!  =)
    I'll have updates for my games in a few hours. Sunday night dinner with the family comes first.
    You know how Klingons in Star Trek are hyper violent, even with their lovemaking?  Do you think that their version of BDSM parlors are secret Cuddle Dungeons that other Klingons look down on in disgust?  "What is this 'Cuddle' you speak of?  How can there  be no bloodshed or broken furniture?  That's just sick!"

    The Worf Effect perhaps? He brought his understanding of human mating rituals and a subculture caught on.
    If you were to put your grandparents on speed dial, would you get sued by Instagram for copyright infringement?
    Anyone else watching the new show "Designated Survivor"?  I highly recommend it.  Strikes me as being inspired by the Tom Clancy books Debt of Honor an Executive Decisions.  Good show.

    Seems interesting, and I do enjoy those two books (all right, nearly all of what Clancy writes!).  Thanks for the tip!
    Stupid people are like glow sticks.  I want to snap them and shake the shit out of them until the light comes on.

    Yes, this is a general gripe.  I have no issues with the people here.  its the rest of the world that bugs me.  I didn't mean to insinuate that I was talking about you or anyone in particular, so I'm sorry if it came across that wayl

    While I can relate, it's not the stupid people that turn me off - it's the willfully ignorant.


    If using the word 'stupid' straight out of the dictionary, I have nothing against someone who is less smart than average; the Real Life dice just didn't roll good for them, so who am I to judge?  I'm here to help them.


    It's the unenlightened who, for whatever reason (call it ego, laziness, fitting in with their buddies, selfishness, trolling, etc.) just refuse to do any kind of fact-checking or research into what they're talking about that makes me scratch my head.  It's like they're saying, "I'm right because I say so!  Now believe me or you're a jerk!"   Wha?  Furthermore, it's worse when these folks try to spread their viewpoint to others, going on and on with their "facts."  It's like they're letting their inner child control them instead of listening to their (logical) inner adult.  I don't get this approach.


    I'm not going to agree with every stranger's viewpoint,, but I'm far more likely to respect and value that viewpoint if it seems they've done their homework.  In the end, research often brings understanding, and through understanding comes harmony.  That's all I want for everybody!  =)


    -Sherwood.  Here's hoping the "stupid" and willfully ignorant leave you alone!  =)
    I am so proud of my wife right now.  She just got her new job working for the Venetian hotel here in Vegas as a Forensic Accountant.  She's been a pharmacy technician for so long, this is a real dream job for her, after going to all the effort to get her Bachelors degree from UNLV.

    If I get caught trying not to fall asleep, can I be charged with resisting a rest?


    Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day!  Arrr!
    Ever meet someone so stupid that you just wanted to buy them a toaster for their bathtub?

    You could give him a fork and tell him he needs to plug the toaster in and use the fork to straighten out the coils.

    When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade.  Make life take the lemons back.


    Get mad.  I don't want your damn lemons.  What am I supposed to do with these?


    Demand to see life's manager.  Make life rue the day it decided to give YOU lemons.  Do you know who I am?  I'm the man who's going to burn your house down with these lemons!


    I'm going to invent a combustible lemon that BURNS YOUR HOUSE DOWN!

    Did you hear about the two guys that stole a calendar?


    They each got six months. =)
    To the players in my various games: I will be making posts in the morning to move things along.  Be looking for the alerts I'll send out.
    I'm away from home at my tabletop game right now, but in a few hours I'll be back and able to post stuff in my games.
    It is by caffeine alone that I set my mind in motion, it is through the Beans of Java that the thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning. It is by caffeine alone that I set my mind in motion.

    I must not drink. Drink is the mind-killer. Drink is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my drink. I will permit it to pass into me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn my inner eye to see its path. Where the drink has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
