First I’d like to say I got 2 things for Christmas. Jack and shit.
This would be nice though.

Considering how infuriating the news is, and how much I really want to punch the TV/Monitor/kittens, this would come in handy. Yes it would.
Next up on the list is the snark required and focus demanded of me to [...]

I don’t know if you’re interested or follow this issue, but it was about time for a political rant out of me. So, I have a big problem with how our economy is evaluated and how the values of commodities are determined. For instance, we are [...]

An interesting read on Guy Fawkes day. If you haven’t heard of him, it’s because it was a long time ago in England when Mr. Fawkes took it upon himself to challenge the authority of the King and Parliament.
Fawkes, an ensign, had taken the lead in a 1605 plot to blow up the houses of [...]

Due to Jonny’s semi-emo meltdown and subsequent infection of many posters here, I took it upon myself to drink half a bottle of Jonnie Walker black and get over said illness. I’m not sure when (or even IF…) Jonny will return in fighting form. He may in fact, be gone for as long as 3 [...]

This horde is comparable in size to a single compact car. [...]

24 Hours of Moab is this weekend.
Rumor has it, that’s it is the last race of promoter Laird Knight that is making any money. All the other races are way down. On many levels, Laird typifies race promotion, swindling of employees would be first on that list. Hiring sales staff, when they pursue and close [...]

Business name of the week: Morning Wood, seen stenciled on the back of a beater Dodge 2WD pickup riding ominously low on its springs today in Bibleburg, Colorado. The outfit apparently delivers wood, perhaps to our many Repuglicant family-values sky pilots, maybe even the sort used in fireplaces and woodstoves. Who could know? Don’t ask, [...]
