  • A blast from the past… Numa Numa

    I’m not sure what brought the ‘Numa Numa’ kid to mind, but here’s an earworm for you….  I remember when this video went viral about five years ago and still laugh when he starts ‘breakin’ it down’. Continue reading

  • Via Breda

     Via Breda.  I’m guessing it was the yoga.  Can’t help it, love it. You are 17% hippie.   You’re not in the lowest bracket of non-hippie-hood, but you’re close.  I advise a field trip to a food co-op or a farmer’s market.  Do a few interviews and take notes, because there will be a quiz… Continue reading

  • A Day at the Ranges…

    Went to the range with Mr. B, Og, and Partner yesterday.  Spent quite a bit of time poking holes in paper with my Beretta .22 at 25 yards.  Managed to keep just about everything in the black, which I thought was pretty good considering there was a fairly strong breeze yesterday (Og said it was… Continue reading

  • Firefox issues…

    Og has conquered his issues with Firefox but Blogger seems to be having some issues now.  If you want to leave comments, I guess Opera or IE are the way to go.  I’ve got 3.6.8 on mine (Mr. B does as well) and there seems to be a major glitch with comments.  Any solutions out… Continue reading

  • I CAN believe I ate the whole thing…..

    Mr. B is a fantastic cook on a regular day, but tonight he truly outdid himself.  On the menu:  grilled sharp (10 year old) cheddar, onion, and mushroom stuffed steaks (13 oz); fresh asparagus tips with a three cheese sauce; and fresh corn on the cob.  The times are not many when my manners completely… Continue reading

  • Immigration vs. Colonialization

    I was reading this post from the Advice Goddess blog and realized something as I was adding my comment (I seem to be doing that a lot lately).  The discussion in question was in regards to burkhas and feminists and religious freedoms and such.  But the comments started talking about France and their ban on… Continue reading

  • Not terribly surprising….

    Via Mr. B…      My Conservative Identity: You are a Free Marketeer, also known as a fiscal conservative. You believe in free-market capitalism, tax cuts, and protecting your hard-earned cash from pick-pocketing liberal socialists. Take the quiz at About.com Political Humor Continue reading

  • Fishbowl Smart (or not): Smart vs. smart

    Borepatch has some thoughts regarding Smart vs. smart and Intelligent vs. intelligent based on a conversation over at Aratae’s place.  I made a comment on Borepatch’s post but didn’t really want to take it political since it’s his blog and all.  It seems that a lot of my comments juxtapose nicely with Aratae’s blogpost regarding… Continue reading

  • Because all of the cool kids are doing it….

    Via Hecate’s Crossroad: I write like James Fenimore Cooper I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing! Continue reading

  • The Old Spice Guy…..

    I think that Old Spice has the funniest commercials out there right now.  I like the Old Spice Guy (whose name is Isaiah Mustafa, BTW).  No, I don’t want my man to smell like him or be him, but I do enjoy watching the commercials as well as his new Youtube Channel where he answers… Continue reading
