Forget Or Forgive

The ability to forget will get you to tomorrow.  The ability to forgive will get you to Heaven.

Southern Fried

People say that if you want really good authentic "Southern Fried Chicken" you need to go down South.  So, I got in my car the other day and started driving.  I knew I was in the south and getting close to some great tasting chicken when I pulled into a gas station and saw this sign over the pump.




Actually, my grandkids who live in South Carolina saw this at a gas station down the road and thought it would make a great post for my blog.  I agree.

Of Paddles And Oars


If paddles are for canoes and oars are for row boats, what are you for?

Harry Reid Is Thrashing

An old IT term 'thrashing' came to mind after hearing what Harry Reid had to say about the bailout of Ford Motor Company. Thrashing happened in the olden days (circa 1990) when a disk drive had too many I/O requests at the same time...it 'thrashed' across the platter surface but couldn't/didn't perform reads or writes with a whole lot of accuracy or dependability. If left unattended, the drive eventually crashed.

I'd ask Mr. Reid to check out what really happened, but that would be a waste of breath.  Then I'd ask Mr. Reid to check out the the results of Ford refusing a government bailout.  But that would also be a waste of breath.

Harry's been thrashing around Washinton too long and he's about to crash.

Ditched In The Ditch

When was the last time your boss told you to pull over to the side of the road and resign?  For that matter, when was the last time you heard of anyone's boss telling any employee to pull over to the side of the road and resign?

Shirley Sherrod, who resigned from the Agriculture Department on Monday said the White House forced her out after remarks that she says have sparked a fabricated racial controversy.  The former Georgia director of Rural Development said she received a phone call from the USDA's deputy undersecretary Cheryl Cook on Monday while she was in a car. Cook told her that the White House wanted her to resign.  "They called me twice," Sherrod told the Associated Press. "The last time they asked me to pull over to the side of the road and submit my resignation on my Blackberry, and that's what I did."

Just another example of the White House making a crisis out of an opportunity.

iPods And Wii's

My grand children play iPods and Wii's. 

When I was a kid I played cowboys and indians.

Three Lazy Guys

I know a guy who is so lazy so he has to ride when he walks the dog.






I know a guy who is so lazy he has to get his neighbor to help him mow the lawn.







I know a guy who is so lazy he colored all the squares on his Rubics Cube white.

Flying Errors

Flying into a rage and flying into a mountain are both the result of "Pilot Error".

Half Baked And Half Priced

By way of Gateway Pundit...

I've heard of "Half Baked" politicians but this is the first "Half Priced" one I've ever run across.  This is for real.  A political fund raiser in the midwest featuring President Obama had to cut ticket prices in half to get people to come.

Global Warming Debate

The global warming debate is nothing more than intellectual Ping Pong and the game is being played with these instruments.
