Mondays suck but so do hookers.....

So it isn't all bad.
This was a busy weekend but Sunday was our day of rest. We did absolutely nothing Sunday, and I must say I loved it. We watched the last Harry Putter movie, The Order of the Phoenix, well tivo-ed it so we could watch the parts we missed. Kids tend to get in the way of the tv when they are awake. I would not say I am a huge Harry Putter fan but I do like them, I tried to read the books but they were a bit....I don't want to say beneath me but....the reading was a bit to childish for my taste. I am no literary god but I do like a challenge when I take time to read something. I was hoping to see Harry get a damn girlfriend by now. He is the star of the school and he is still pull on his own wand for pud shakes! But in all I liked the movie, I hope to get out to see the new Batman movie. I am dieing to see how over-dose boy did on his last movie. Was that a bad joke or a tasteless pun....don't know don't care I thought it was funny HA!

Saturday: (as usual out of order)
I did not have my camera with me this weekend, I forgot it, but I did get one cellphone picture from our Saturday adventure:

It came out surprisingly well, for a cell phone. We all went out to visit one of my wife's friends that invited us to their pool. I made the mistake of not putting sunscreen on my body but I did put 50spf on my face. Vanity often does not equal smart, lol. I got red but not toooo red, it does itch a little and it is uneven. So now I have to lie on my back with my arms up in the air to get those hard to reach areas evened up.

This kids had a blast and all the fun n the sun wore them out for a nice quiet night! I ate way to much and should have probably worked out but the bed felt better than the gym lol.

Sunday: Part Duex

I am not sure if I ever mentioned it but I am very mechanically declined! If I start fixing something the odds are I will end up making it worse than what it was to start. But on Sunday I actually broke that mold for once. HARHAR

My son had some of his friends over and they ended up breaking his Playstation, well the CD tray anyway. So I took it apart to see if it was something as simple as a broken screw and found the problem, a broken CD tray thingie. But luckily we still had an older one in the closet. So I took that one apart and and switched tray thingies and WALLA! Fixed Playstation! I even figured out why it wasn't turning on after I put it back together, the little silver power plug that hooked the power buttons to the system had come unplugged! Go me for round two! I was so shocked it did not make it worse I drank a whole bottle of rum to celebrate....well only one rum and coke I wasn't in the mood to get hammered. Lets see what breaks next so I can test out my new found green thumb.....oh wait isn't that for plants?

Philly out of order...

I loaded up all of my pictures we took while we were at the Benjamin Franklin museum and they came out all out of order. I am not sure why and really to busy and lazy to go through them all and reorganize them. If it was not for dis-order I would have no order to my life.

So if you notice that I seem to jump around alot in my time line just keep in mind this is how my brian works on a regular basis anyway.


So lets begin!:


1) This was some random side of the road advertisment for something, I just liked the paint job.


2) While in the 'Famliy Restroom' I noticed that there seems to be a rodent problem here in Philly, nothing much has change in 200 years I see.




3) While we were leaving we saw a whole buch of news vans and these guys. Man did I have the urge to run up and punch a hippie, and then scream "Get a hair cut hippie!" Wow, was I born during the wrong time lol.

11) Mr. NoNo's is standing in the old world treasure map.....Dar be gold in dem hills!


12) I have nooooo Idea!


13) The will of the baby vs the will of the mommy......It is hard to say who really wins in those battles.


14) I dont smoke anymore but I have alway wanted one of these. Along with a pool table, a pin ball machine, a junk box, a fully stocked bar, poker tables and a 3 lane bowling alley. Man I need to play the lottery!


15) I can see my brain!


16) I was waiting for her to bust out with some Chuck Norris karate on her kids! At least I know I am not alone in being driven insane by my kids!

23) Lets see, a mohawk, a Rancid teeshirt and military power....yep we have it all


24) A rare happy moment.....so very rare!


25) I wonder if this is the same face fighter pilots make when they drop bombs on people? I know I would!


26) Name that plane.....

33) See, all you have to do is trick people into thinking exercise is a game and then everyone will love it.


34) This picture came out rather well, typical tourist picture by I like it.


All in all everyone had a blast at the museum. I remeber it being bigger but then again it was 20 years ago.....wait did I just say 20 years AGO!!!!!!!! Holy fuckinghellsayitaintsoo!
I turned 32 last week and if anyone says anything about birthdays I will hunt you down and take pictures of you in the shower and post them here! If you want send me a Happy 12th birthday card with a gift certificate to Hot22.....it is an all nude strip joint not far from my house....feel free, just email me and I will provide you with my address.
I swear I am not that old!

The house that flipped off thy neighbor....

Here's the story. A city councilman, Mark Easton, lives in this neighborhood.
He had a beautiful view of the east mountains, until a new neighbor purchased the lot below his house and built.
Apparently, the new home was 18 inches higher than the ordinances would allow, so Mark Easton, mad about his lost view, went to the city to make sure they enforced the lower roof line ordinance. Mark and his new neighbor had some great arguments about this as you can imagine - not great feelings. The new neighbor had to drop the roof line - no doubt at great expense.Recently, Mark Easton called the city and informed them that his new neighbor had installed some vents on the side of his home. Mark didn't like the look of these vents and asked the city to investigate.

When they went to Mark's home to see the vent view, this is what they found...






But the town did not have anything on the books about it so Mark, here's to you. Fuck off you fucking fuck.
This post is really old, i had it saved as a draft from October 2006!!!!! It is true and it is still funny after all this time. I was amazed at all the crap I have saved as drafts but never finished. I hope to have my Philly pictures up soon. Maybe if all goes well I will do it from home.....omfg! Use the home compter for slacking off! Well I never!

I took the past two days off just to have off. Sometimes I can get away with things at work that require you to be the boss. Other than that being the boss sucks! But I came back to work the forth of July because....I wanted the Holdiay pay....DUH!
But on Tuesday we took the children out to Philly to see the Benjamin Franklin museum. It has been 20 years since I have been there.....wait did I just say 20 YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shoot me now I am not old I AM NOT OLD! I still remeber my first trip, I was 11 and it was a field trip. I remeber the heart you got to walk around in, but I remeber it smelling like pee for some reason and this time around it did not.


Here we have Cheese with his move of choice for the long trip. If you have kids and you like to take road trips a dvd player is a must in the car. I am not sure how my parents did it with us, but we managed.
I had a walkman and my gameboy. You know the yellow Sony walkman that was the size of a softball, with the sponge head phones and the gameboy that had a green and black screen. Now I have a PSP that can be played in the dark, hold music, video, connect to the internet and play arcaed quality games; and an Ipod that is the size of a quater that hold up to 500 songs with these awesome ear buds that block out most of the outside world noise. How things have changed!



And here we have have the older one all excited about dad putting in the portable dvd player. We make sure to never leave it in the car, crack heads can smell easily removable items for cash in parked cars.



Our two future punk-rock stars and Alan all set for the trip.





I have more pictures but they are in the wife's camera which is at home. I will have to upload them for part II of our trip to Philly.
But to let you know, we all had fun, we had a Philly cheese steak in Philly, ran amuch in the museum and had to come home to calm the nerves the only way a grown man knows how to:

RedBull and Jagger......it helped bring my sanity back from the edge. Notice the wife hid all the big knives!









More to come......

Just another day in happy land.....

Has anyone ever made a racists remark to you?
Well someone let one fly at me yesterday, and being an all American white man this was almost a joke. But you know what? It really pissed me off for about a second and then it took all my composure not to laugh in his face when he said it. And it was not that he made a comment about whitey that got me hot, but the fact that if I had said that to him I would have been fired!
You see.....well here let me do this in play write format:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The scene:
The two actors are standing in a parking lot outside of a factory in a discussion about a delivery truck blocking other cars in.

OldRascistBlackMan: This guy has no right to be blocking me in, I got off work and I want to go home! I came over to you people to git him to move and you did nothing about it!

EverydayWorkingGuy: Sir, the moment you made the complaint the delivery guy was told he had to move and he was in the process of doing so when I saw you arguing with him.

OldRascistBlackMan: What!!! Did you hear what he said to me!

EWG: No sir I was not close enough to hear him, but I was able to hear you yelling.

ORBM: He had no right to park here.....and who is your supervisor!

EWG: I am the supervisor

ORBM: Oh, I see how this is 'YOU PEOPLE" are stick up for each other, "YOU PEOPLE" are always like that!
* Now at this point I was not really sure what he meant by "you people" since my mind does not work on the black/white thing. The whole idea of me sticking up for this kid, that was the delivery guy who happened to be white as well, was so far off course I was unsure as what he meant*

EWG: What do you mean by, you people?

ORBM: You know what I mean, you people always doing this to us.

EWG: No really, what are you talking about, you people?

ORBM: You White People!

Here we can see how the race card has a real double standard. I would never use someones race, religion or sexual preference into an argument. Especially in an argument over parking!
It was about that time I got pissed, he kept going on and on about it and all I did was look at him and realize that:
This man I have seen day in and day out is a hardcore Honkeie Hater! Damn and all this time I thought he was a nice guy. It just goes to show you, you never know someone until they let their guard down and they show you their true colors.
I live in a very mixed neighborhood and have never had any ill feeling towards any one. I dont shut my door and hide when I see a black guy walk past my house.....unless he is wearing a suite and carrying a little black book. Damn Witness scar the crap out of me! I really do not understand hating someone because of something they had no say it. I am white by birth and proud by choice.....but how can someone be proud of something they had nothing to do with. It is like being proud of having two hands....makes no sense and neither does thinking the way he does.
Our fore fathers where some hardcore racist back in the day but that does not make me one too. I am not proud of what happened back in the day, but to have the ability to move forward one must learn from the past and move on. Not dwell on it and act like it is still 1950 and it is still Cracker Land.
But after I cooled my heels a bit I let it go. I was not going to let this ORBM bring me down to his level. I know what I am and know deep down I would never have stood up for someone just because he was anything but in the right. I did get upset at first but that is only human, but after I let off some steam I had to laugh. Because I know that this guy went home pissed and a probably told everyone under the sun about how "THE MAN" is still keeping him down. Where it was his own hate and bitterness that is really the problem.
And you know what? I would put money on the fact he is probably a god fearing, Jesus loving man. So much for do on to others, turn the other cheek and love thy neighbor huh? See ever religious people don't believe their own bullshit!
