Off the Top

Who’s gonna turn down a still shot of the Three Stooges? It’s comical. It’s uplifting. It’s refreshing!

Here is your .sig of the day.  I laughed out loud.  I don’t know why; maybe I’m just tired.

“4×4 in uppercase is $X$!!!“

The boys were complaining about a job I gave them last week; they said it was too hard. So I rented a Dirty Jobs on DVD. Well, I showed them Las Vegas Food Recycler and I think they got the point. Time will tell. Anyway, I’ve been watching it myself and I see that it is quite an entertaining show. Mike Rowe is well-spoken and clever, and he is not afraid to get dirty, and those dirty jobs are quite interesting.

In case you missed it tonight, some drug company or another advertised their new drug on television. This new drug is called aciphex (pronounced ASS-effects). “Whah?!” I’d like to meet the company clown that slipped that past the marketing department.

Tonight, I watched a rerun of The A-Team – which show I never watched as a child — and found myself laughing out loud. You are asking why I laughed out loud and I shall tell you. Murdock’s t-shirt sported the following aphorism: “GOD, GUNS, AND GUTS made America. Let’s keep all three.”

It is surely thought-provoking; and although an incomplete statement, it is true.  God and guns were obviously important to the founders. Among other evidences of this, I submit the first two amendments to the U.S. Constitution. And guts? Well, signing the Declaration of Independence took guts.

Brought to my attention by MG, now you can simpsonise yourself. “You know you want to.”

Here’s some fun for you if you have a little spare time: http://www.wiidamage.com/

I had occasion to find a certain Calvin and Hobbes strip today and lo, the first hit at Google was the exact tool that I needed — The Searchable Calvin and Hobbes Database! Somebody give the owner of that site a medal.

This comical spectacle is brought to you by a trail camera.
