It occurred to me that it seems everyone who moves to Michigan from somewhere else, suddenly becomes real elitist about the weather. I don’t know what it is about this place that brings that out, but I’ve heard more people talk about the weather they miss so much from New York (?) or Colorado or …

My Random Thoughts
Chinese New Year
Well, Happy Chinese New Year, or as they say in English in China “Happy New Year.” I realized this morning that I actually have no idea why Chinese New Year falls when it does, but they don’t play by Western standards, and I always respect that. It’s also Ash Wednesday, so happy that too I …
Bush Joke
How many Bush Administration officials does it take to screw in a light bulb? None. There is nothing wrong with the light bulb; its conditions are improving every day. Any reports of its lack of incandescence are a delusional spin from the liberal media. That light bulb has served honorably, and anything you say undermines …
Llama Song
This has brought me endless amounts of joy in the last week. I won’t even bother explaining it, just enjoy it as it is: Llama Song
Elections = Freedom?
So elections happened in Iraq, which is a good thing in terms of the democratization of Iraq, and something I certainly support. However, I was listening to a radio show on the way to work today hosted by a fiery conservative who was saying in extremely similar words “Iraq is now free. President Bush should …
More Blog Complaints
So I’ve always made a point of telling people that I have a website, but not a blog, though I realize that my lack of putting things up other than random thoughts has really turned this into a blog site. I’m going to keep putting up plays, skits and essays, but I guess I’ve been …
Yatta
This is kind of an old favorite that most of you may have seen, but I figured it’s always time for a good Yatta. Plus, I found an English translation. Here’s the video: Original Yatta Video Flash Mock And here’s the translation, which I find incredibly entertaining: G R Double-E N Leaves G R Double-E …
Air Fresheners
Air fresheners are a classic example of the everday place of human delusion. We buy air fresheners in all kinds of exotic flavors. Then we spray our new “Strawberry Lilac” scent all over the room after an unfortunate incident. We do this so that our brain will go “Wow. I’m in a field with strawberries. …
Last Day
I punched out and said my goodbyes, and thus ended Best Buy’s (or His Satanic Majesty, as I like to call it) opressive hold on my life. And yet I still felt a twinge of sadness as I said goodbye and walked out the door, making my last purchase with my employee discount, and having …
Christmas Wonderings
It’s always around this time of year that I wonder what the members of the bands “Cannibal Corpse,” “Slayer,” or “Iron Maiden” do for Christmas. Do you think they open their presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day? Who plays Santa? Do their mothers always insist on having cranberry sauce at dinner even though no …
