So I have decided, amidst a whirlwind of thoughts, to change back to the more traditional template. This includes the standard for comments. yes, I realize that this means I am just like the millions of others too lame to create their own blogger page, but.....

I was interrupted when I was typing this post a week ago. I have no idea where it was going, but I am sure that it was hilarious! I can only imagine. In the meantime, I would like to post this video because it is effin' hilarious. As we are now approaching the election, let us take a look at politics in action.



Clearly, the front fell off. Cardboard, no good. I love it. I hope everybody voted him in again so the hilarity could continue.

I have written down some things that I have heard in the past while that have made me chuckle. I decided that I would list them and share the love.

-I'm a fixin' to...
I guess that if you live in the South (capitalized as it "shall rise again") you probably hear this more often. However living in the Utah, I don't hear it nearly as much. It was a friend of mine that called someone out on this statement. She queried whether or not they actually said that. They did.

-Tempest in a Teapot
I would assume that this is metaphorical, meaning that the situation is not critical, but people are acting as though it is. This is true unless you have ever had a teapot of hot tea spilt on your lap.

-Navel Gazing Nonsense
I have no idea what this means.

-Hootenany
(as in "shindig") Unfortunately I am the guilty party on this one. It was nigh upon staff meetin' time and I asked my boss what time this hootenany was going to start. Understandably all conversation stopped. A several minute discussion on the term hootenany ensued. We are none the wiser.

-Wait California is a state? (or something to that effect)
I overheard this walking across the campus of a liberal (not capitalized) University in Utah. I was surprised at the surprise of the student who suddenly realized that the thousand or so miles of west coast line was occupied by a "state" and not a receptacle for celebrity excess. Go figure.

-...its like the older I get, the less I change...
Another student on said campus. Talking on a cell phone, because who talks to those physically present anymore. I only heard this brief exchange but chuckled nonetheless.

-Fauxumentary
I heard this on the radio and liked it. It has probably been around for a while, but new to me. Films such as This is Spinal Tap, Waiting for Guffman, Drop Dead Gorgeous are good examples of this.

-shindig
Referenced earlier in this post, and I apologize.

So there you go, a list of some funny stuff overheard in the past while. I hope to update this list soon. I hear often, remember less.

While I cannot remember off the top of my head which pharmaceutical commercial the post title comes from, it is indeed a brand new day. With a black man accepting the Democratic Party nomination on the 45th anniversary of MLK's historic speech, and a woman being named as a vice president for the Republican Party, things are changing.

Like others, I was not always involved in politics. This is mostly due to the fact that I had no reason to be involved in politics. I had a job, paid income tax on my 3,000 year and got it all back. Oh, and I was mooching off my parents at the time so had no real expenses, save my slurpee habit.

With the ever-increasing primary season, I have had to ask, why? No, not why Fred Thompson (Dun-Dun), but why so long. It was clear almost from the beginning who the top candidates would be. (Sorry Ron Paul, maybe that "no IRS thing" will work next time) All that happened was a great waste of money that campaign contributors will never get back.

I did get to see Chelsea Clinton and Bill Clinton speak at the local University during the campaign. Eh, I've had better motivational speeches from RonCo.

I can't wait for the Republican National Convention because then the left wing nutjobs will have a chance to respond to the right wing nutjobs and we will all be so incredibly tired of this damn election process that the Elephant Man-Iceman ticket will seem like a good idea because we wont remember hearing anything bad about them like how many houses they have or how they are a Muslim sympathizer......I am going to sleep till January.


New office? My own new office? That’s right, for the time being I am housed in an echoey office (not sure if that’s a word). However the new digs are nice, but I don’t know if I enjoy working for a living. Yes it is still basically a state job, but one that requires me to produce “work” units. How strange. I am waiting for Ashton Kutcher to pop out and tell me I got pimp’d or pick’d or whatever. We’ll see. At least I would get to meet Demi Moore…

It is official. School is done for the summer. Now I have three weeks before Fall Semester to finish my honeydo list. Speaking of my honey, she asked me to pose a question about my last post. In that post I mentioned something about being "wont" to do something. When she read that she made fun of me. After I proved the definition of the word using the Internet, she continued to poke fun at me and said that no one uses that word like that in this day and age. With texting and blogging all the rage I shall finish this blog post accordingly.

OMG, I was LMAO when you GED's were looking at him. IDK what you were thinking. ;-) BRB, /b/ :::: @-->--- OSC! LOL

ugh. I can't do it. TTFN.
