Vinny's Pizzeria, Used Tires and Abortion Clinic

I am just a skinny Italian kid feeling left out because everyone else has a blog but me. So check it out! Or don't...either way.

Let me vent

Okay 2 things really got my goat today:

1) Johns Hopkins University suspended a fraternity today because of the language on their invitations to a Halloween in the Hood party. They said things like bling bling and hoochie and any other of the genius terms coined by the intellectual societies of our inner cities. The black student union protested the event and as a result the fraternity was suspended. Let me ask a question: if I am offended by movies called "White Chicks" and "White Man Can't Jump" who can I complain to in order to seek retribution? Anyone who plays the race card should be spit on. Hey, let's go down to Durham and protest to Mike Nifong--another worthless asshole--because some white guys are being unfairly persecuted just because a black stripper said they raped her with NO evidence at all--in fact, even in the face of the evidence against HER!

2) John Kerry is a worthless fucking piece of shit. I would LOVE nothing more and would gladly give a month's pay to squat right over his face and take a shit right in his mouth. The guy basically told a group of college students in California that they better focus on getting a good eduacation or else they'll be stuck in Iraq. Excuse me? This is coming from a guy who's 4 year cumulative grade at Yale was a 76?!?!?! That's right....one point LOWER than President Bush's 77!!!! I graduated college with a better GPA than this fucking retard and served in the military.....there are a lot of VERY educated people throughout all of the armed forces....officers AND enlisted. I am hoping the secret service don't pay me a visit for the letter I sent to Kerry through his web site. The guy ain't worth the corn in an Arab's shit.

Tuesdays suck....

Not as bad as Mondays but pretty damn close.

Well not much new since my last post. Had a good weekend playing around with Stinky. Couldn't do anything outside because it was shitty out....super windy with rain.

I have a few more investment properties to look at before I close on the original one I was looking at. I think I might be able to find something with better numbers. We're also going to go look at a house for us this weekend. It's not far from where we live now but it has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and a full basement and more room than we have now. We can use it. I lost my music studio when we had Stinky and I didn't realize all the stuff you acquire when you have a child. So we'll see how we like this place. So we may be buying a house and an apartment building....GROOVY!

I just downed a HUGE cup of coffee so I think I might have to go and pinch a loaf in a minute or two...I am trying to work it up.

Anybody watch "My Name is Earl" and "The Office"? Man that is some funny ass shit. The Office is the best because it takes place in Scranton....right up the road. And that is such a shit town and all dark and depressing that the show hits the nail right on the head. God I piss myself watching those shows. There's not too much I watch other than sports, history and discovery channels but I watch those religiously and I ain't even religious!

Anyway, guess I will go for now....if something pops up I'll blog about it later. I was gonna get political because of all the media bias I keep getting subjected to but I will wait on that. Anyway, TOODLES!

Okay I got issues...

Alright people I got some issues I need to discuss:

1) I was out sick yesterday. Yep, I woke up with a bad sore throat, stuffed up, and felt like a giant assbag. So I called in and laid in bed all day like a lazy bastard. I still feel like shit but I came to work today. Just call me dedicated. I attribute my frequent illnesses and colds to the fact that I now have a young child who plays with other children all the time. Between them, they're a giant germ farm and she's always bringing something home. When I get sick I take a bell into the bedroom with me and when I need something I ring the bell and my wife brings it to me.....she's the best.

2) I went to put my pants on this morning and I needed to bust out a couple yoga moves to get into them! Now I know I sound like a chick saying this but am I getting fat?!?! Fuck yeah I am and I gots to do something about it. I needed a crowbar, pliers and vaseline to get the button snapped this morning. I felt like MacGyver! I thought my mountain biking, hiking and golfing would be enough to keep me a skinny ass but I guess not. Gots to add situps to my exercise regimen.

3) Really pisses me off when people say that you get sick if you're not dressed warm enough, or your feet are cold, or you go outside and your hair is still wet from the shower. No. WRONG! These things may make you more susceptible however, you get sick from germs and/or virus! THAT'S IT!!!!!

4) When I was down in Tampa over the weekend we were talking to a group of chicks at a table next to us in the bar. They were really cool and seemed pretty intelligent. Anyhow, one of them started talking politics so I thought to myself, "Here we go, she's gonna ruin it by saying what a lib she is and how she hates the President". Imagine my surprise when she, and her friends started talking about how conservative they are and why and all these other things. I was pleasantly surprised.....then they brought up the North Korean's having nukes. That's where I had to put my foot down and correct them. The funniest part was when one chick said, "what are you a nuclear engineer?" And I was like, "yes, as a matter of fact I am....not by profession but that's what my degreee is". Anyway, the point is, they bought all of us guys a drink. Hows about that? THEY bought US a drink. Some of the coolest chicks I have ever met....down to earth, logical, rational, fair and fun. Why the hell can't more chicks be like that?!?!?! Well at least American chicks....there's a lot of European chicks like that.

5) Why in the fuck do people drink decaffeinated coffee?

6) You know the whole weekend I was in Tampa I had to continually harass, annoy and chastise my friends for carrying around their cell phones, blackberries, huckleberries, doodads, and whatever other fucking gizmos they had hanging off their belts. COME ON!!!! Two things: 1) you're not THAT important....believe it or not when we're not at work....work goes on without us!!! Imagine that?!?!? That's why you always place someone in charge if you're not gonna be there! 2) How the fuck can you relax and have fun when your shit's going off beeping every 5 minutes?!?! Screw that noise. I called my wife to let her know I got there okay and then I turned my phone off and threw it in my bag for the weekend. We're out 13 miles offshore on a boat and everyone's trying to get a fucking signal!!!!!

7) I started bringing my own toilet paper to work. I am sick of using the sandpaper they have in all these government facilities. Plus they probably pay $92.87 per roll as it is! I can't help it if I have a fragile bunghole!

8) I am starting to get real mad about all these fucking ZEROS that drive around in their Tercels and Civics with the bass on their radio turned all the way up and their spoilers on the back and no fucking muffler and they constantly rev their engines. I have made it a point to point at them and laugh at them so they can clearly see me. Calm down Dickey.....you ain't that much of a badass.....it's a fucking Tercel dude....calm down!

9) Sascha Cohen (I think that's his name)....the guy who does Ali G and Borat? He might be the funniest dude on the fucking planet. I was watching some of his interviews he's done from the "It's Da Ali G Show" and that shit had me rolling.

10) I'd like to publicly congratulate my friends Jody and Melissa for their brand new bouncing baby girl. Congrats guys and all our best. Thank God she looks like Melissa!!

11) Lastly...the last time my wife and I went to a place that had dancing (our 10 year reunion tailgate party) I did the nausea, heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach, diarreah dance.

Bad case of swamp ass

Yep you guessed it. I had such a case of swamp ass yesterday it was hard to believe. Probably just my system trying to get rid of all those beers I had over the weekend in Tampa. I ran to the stoolie about 4 times while I was at work to drop root. Luckily for me there wer vacancies every time when I really needed it! NICE!!

We were supposed to get like 2 inches of snow last night....didn't happen but we've been getting some flurries this morning on and off. Unbelievable...global warming my asshole!! It's supposed to be cold all week. Tomorrow is gonna be like 40-something but sunny....good enough for me to go golfing.

Today should be a fun day for my little Stinky. Every Tuesday my wife takes her to the local library for story time. All the childrens sit there with their mom and/or dad and the librarians read stories and they sing and stuff. Well today all the kiddies have to wear their Halloween costumes and they're gonna have a little parade. My wife promised to take some pictures which I cannot wait to see.

Oh well, I believe that is it for now. I will try to get my photos up soon. Anyways, hope everyone has a great day. TOODLES!

Holy Mother of Ass...I am getting OLD!!

Well goddamn that was a KICK ASS weekend!!!! I got into Tampa at about 11:20 am on Friday and my buddy Brett was waiting for me at the baggage area, Gordon then swung by, we threw our bags in the car and headed to his house. In the afternoon we hung out in the pool and had our share of beers. We went out to eat for dinner at some place on the beach and got all rowdy and crazy. Went back to the house that night and Ray and Max showed up at about 9-10pm. We just kept hanging out drinking and swimming....a delightful combination.

Saturday morning we got up early at like 6-6:30 am....somehow. We headed over to the marina and boarded the Daisy Mae and casted off at about 7:15. I think we headed out about 15 miles offshore or something like that. There we were out in the Gulf, no land in sight, coolers full of beer and it was about 85 degrees at 8am! We caught about 32 Spanish Mackerel throughout the morning. Talk about having a friggin blast!!!! The coolest part was we never had to touch a fish....the dude on the boat took care of everything. He was pretty cool and was making fun of us when we caught smaller fish or did anything stupid....which was pretty often. We asked if he ever had anyone fall off the boat or lose a pole in the water and he said no so I thought about falling off the side of the boat holding a fishing pole but decided not to....didn't want them to kick us off and cut the trip short or anything. Anyway we got back to the marina at about noon. We went over to Hooters, the greatest beacon of capitalism in the free world and had a nice lunch. Back to the house for pool, naps, etc. Then bar-hopping Sat night.

Anyway, it was a great time and now I am exhausted. I didn't even drink that much but the combination of staying up late, not getting much sleep, spending the day on a boat in the sun, etc just wore my skinny ass out! I will try and get some pictures up when I have time....there are some killer photos. Anyways, hope everyone else had a good weekend as well.

My Celebrity Look Alikes!!!

Happy Friday!!!

Well it's my Friday anyway since I am off tomorrow and heading to sunny Tampa, FL. Gonna be a fucking AWESOME weekend. Only shitty thing is I have to get up and leave the house at about 4:30 am. The airport's only a 20 minute drive but my flight leaves at 6:30. That's the price I pay for wanting to get down there early.

Left work early and played golf yesterday. I played like a giant bunghole with legs but it was fun anyways. Won't be much longer and I'll have to put the clubs away for the winter which always sucks ass.

Dude, I've had to take a poop all morning and every time I go to the bathroom all the stalls are full. Well, I went in there once and a dude was coming out of a stall but I can't go if I see the person come out of there. I will only go in blind. Just something creepy about going into a stall to poo after seeing who came out of it and then you sit down and can picture the person's face who left the seat all warm for you....not to mention the pubes and crotch junk they left on the seat! Anybody else have issues with this? Tell you what....when I do end up finding a vacancy in the stoolie it is gonna be a big one....wish I had my camera.

I am sitting here listening to the music they play over the PA system here at work. Sometimes it is nice when there's decent music on but this morning has been an Elton John-fest. I mean really. Does anyone really like his music? B-B-B-Benny and the Jets?!? What the fuck is that song about?!?!?! Gotta be one of the dumbest songs I have ever heard. Oh well, the guy has more money than God so he must be doing something right. I'll tell you what though, with his lavishly-flamboyant lifestyle, if I didn't know better I would think he was gay.

I just went and switched a bunch of keys around on my boss's computer keyboard. Now when he starts typing he'll have trouble finding the letters and everything will come out all fucked up. I better be careful though because he'll be here tomorrow and I won't so he might fuck with all my stuff really bad...he's done it before and I know he's itching to do it again.

The realtor called me yesterday...all the zoning issues went through smoothly and were approved so when I come back from Florida I will move forward with purchasing the apartment building. Can you say $$$$?!?! Even though I won't be out enjoying the money by buying nice things with it, it'll be used to buy another investment property so I plan to continue growing this thing. The way it will work is that the tenants will be paying for my building(s). Real estate in this area is going up in value so friggin fast it's not even funny (with the casinos, revitalization programs, and people coming from NY/NJ because their taxes are too much). So I will have the option of hanging on to the places for income or turning around and selling them in a year or two at a significant profit.

The other big news is that I have a couple land deals that may be happening after I get the apartment building. There's this company nearby that does landscaping and all that type of stuff. Well there's some land for sale near where I live, all wooded and like 4-5 acres. I am talking with the landscaping company to sell them the rights to cut down the trees on the land. In other words, pay me for the rights to cut the trees down and use them to grind up for mulch and stuff and I will use that money for the down-payment on the property. Then when they cut the trees down and clear a portion of the land I will re-sell it because it will be worth more once it is cleared. This way I gain the profit without ever having to pay a dime. Pretty neat huh?!?!

That's about all that's going on here. I will post something Monday to let you know if I made it back from Tampa alive or not. Hope everyone has a good weekend. TOODLES!

Funny

You'll have to grant me some leniency in being political since the elections are soooo close. Drudge ran an article about how Howard Dean is taking $5-10 million in loans to put toward close election races. What?!?! What happened to the liberals that were sooo confident they'd "take back the house and senate"? Where'd they go? Sounds like they're panicking scrambling to me! I guess they just weren't raising enough money with their lack of ideas or their bash Bush bullshit. Seems to me like a party that's confident in winning everything shouldn't need to borrow money to try and do it. Drudge also ran a story about Karl Rove and how confident he is in keeping the majority in both houses of congress. He also had a great quote: "This morning, I loved it: The [Associated Press] ran a story saying these Democrat congressional candidates outraised their Republican incumbents in the third quarter. Well, what they didn't say was that part of the reason that they did is that we raised the money earlier so that we'd be able to deploy it," he said.

By the way....anyone notice how badly the liberal media are campaigning for the democrats?!?! I won't even call them democrats anymore....there is no more real democratic party. I'll call them the libs...which should be synonomous with weak, idea-less, irrational, blame America first. The few real democrats that still exist are cast aside by the modern liberal party (i.e. Joe Lieberman). I disagree with mostly everything Lieberman agrees with BUT he has rational reasons for the way he believes and makes sense when he conveys those reasons. John Kerry standing up in a concert where "artists" are comparing the President's name with female genitalia and saying, "This is the TRUE America" is not my idea of rational.

To top it all off, senior republican strategists are saying that Newt Gingrich will be back for 2008 leading the republican party. Not to run for President but to lead the party in some capacity. GOOD. Talk about a SMART dude with unbelievable ideas. Things are looking up!!!!

Less than 3 weeks....

Until election day. Are you gonna vote? I am.

1) Did you see all the liberals vote against the new interrogation bill? The bill authorizes CIA and other intelligence agencies to aggressively interrogate terrorists and terrorism suspects. Good. The bill specifically outlines what is legal and illegal though the public is not privy to this information. All the libs voted overwhelmingly against it. What that tells me is that they are STILL weak on national security and have no idea of what it takes to combat a force like terrorism.

2) Did you see former representative Gerry Studds of Mass. died last week? Who is he? He's a former congressman who had sex with his 17 year old page. Though 17 was/is the age of consent it was deemed legal but unprofessional because he was a subordinate. So when he died you had all the usual dicks praising him and how great he was....you know, Kerry, Kennedy, Pelosi, etc. Not only that but when he was CENSURED he received a standing ovation from his liberal peers....many of whom are still in the house and senate. Where's the outrage like they have for Rep Foley?!?!?! I am not standing up for Foley but simply pointing out how fucking ridiculous and FAKE these liberal pieces of stool are.

3) Majority of liberals...led by Charlie Rangel D-NY....want to repeal President Bush's tax cuts. Okay so let's increase everyone's taxes and stifle the growth of the economy. Makes a lot of sense.

4) We support the troops but are against the war. No such fucking thing so shut the fuck up. Either you support the effort or not....there's no in between. Let me tell you that Pvt Joe Snuffy over in Iraq, who stands in a guard tower all day long watching the wire around his base camp does not differentiate between supporting this but against that. He thinks that if you do not support the war then you do not support the soldiers fighting it....PERIOD. I know because I was one!! Joe hears John Murtha's sorry ass say that we CANNOT win in the war on terror and doesn't know what to think. I don't mind people disagreeing with the war for rational reasons. But when I hear all these fucking peaceniks and how they think if we pull out of there everything will be fine; or the assholes who say we're there for the oil who have no fucking idea of what they're talking about I go nuts! We SHOULD be taking their oil....every fucking drop of it but we're not....we're barely using any of it.

5) I have been watching campaign ads from PA and several neighboring states for weeks...even months now. I have yet to hear even ONE democratic campaign ad stating what that candidate's ideas and/or proposals are. NOT ONE! All they run on is that their opponent supports the President so you should vote against him. What the fuck is that?!?! The funny thing is that people will actually vote based on that! How fucking stupid are people?!?!? VERY stupid. The reason they do not state their own ideas on their ads? Either they have none.....or they know if they came out and said, "I'll raise your taxes and continue to undermine the war effort so elect me" they wouldn't get votes.

6) Where's the outrage for Senator Reid's ethics violations?!?!?! The liberal media is all over Foley and anything republican but you barely hear a word about that dick-smoker Harry Reid and his violations of ethics rules from land sales. Oh and lest we forget....he paid his staffers X-mas bonuses and gave them gifts all paid for with campaign funds....which just happens to be ILLEGAL! Where's the fucking outrage?!?!?

7) Two words: Nancy Pelosi......I don't know about you but I don't want to wake up on Nov 8th and hear that she's the new speaker of the house with her liberal San Francisco agenda. Next thing you now we'll have to forfeit half our paycheck to feed the homeless and fly rainbow flags outside our houses. That dirty fucking twat will get no respect from me.

8) Although I think EVERYONE is weak on illegal immigration I think the republicans are the lesser of 2 evils. Build the fucking fence on the border and enforce the law....that's all I am asking. Melting pot shmelting pot....I am losing too much money in taxes to support people who are here illegally with healthcare and bullshit like that. We have a fucking law now let's enforce it.

9) Covert CIA prisons....a fucking good thing. With a liberal majority we would have never gotten the bill signed to legalize them (same bill as the interrogation).

10) Any American that compares the current or ANY administration to the Nazis should be shot right there on site...no questions asked (i.e. at least 4-5 liberals in congress).

The fun part about all this is when I talk politics with people and they bitch and whine about the President or conservatives or policy in general. Then I say, "did you vote?" Nope. Then shut the fuck up and quit your whining.

I gots a midget in my desk drawer!!!!

Not really but wouldn't that be fucking cool as hell?!?!?! Let's see:

Lynne Stewart, that fat ugly pig of a defense attorney got 28 months in jail for aiding her client (a known terrorist) in communicating with the rest of his organization. What she should have got was a bullet right in her douche bag fucking face. Pig whore. Sorry for the violent imagery....just letting you know how I really feel as always.

Saturday I took my mountain bike out and went for a leisurely ride....or at least I was planning on it. I ended up riding for about 3 hours up and down all these crazy ass trails and hills and this and that. I fell a bunch of times trying to do a bunch of stupid shit. You know, going over jumps and trying to ride across ridiculous streams and stuff....it looked like an episode of jackass gone awry. But it was crazy fun though so who cares?

Sunday my dad and I put new front and back doors on my house. I had a draft coming through each one so we changed them and now I should save some $$$$ on my heating bills.

Only 2 more days of work and then I fly out for Tampa, Florida for the weekend. Holy shit is that gonna be fun. Lay on the beach....go deep sea fishing, and probably hit some strip clubs with a wad of singles....NICE!

Tonight I am watching little Stinky because her mom is going to the gym. I am gonna take her and the dog for a nice walk and then we'll play around for a while. I always look forward to it when it is just me and her. It's nice to have our own time once in a while....healthy. Her new favorite thing are the deer that come in the yard. She runs right up to them and they stay right there! She gets literally about a foot away from them and points at them and yells "DEER!" and looks at us. We stay back a ways from her because the deer get nervous if we go near them but they love when just Samantha runs over to them to say hi. If we take Stinky out in the yard and there are deer in the woods they come into the yard as soon as they see her....it's hilarious. They walk right up to her and sniff her and everything....they're very tame where we live because we feed them and there's no hunting in the gated community. Pretty fun to watch.

What else....hockey season is in full swing and anyone that knows me also knows I am a hockey nut! The Rangers are tied for 1st place and playing fairly well. For me baseball is over because the Yankees were a bust once again and NASCAR is winding down so hockey and football are IT! I can only stomache football so much because of the ever-increasing gangster mentality bullshit but I watch the Steelers and that's about it.

Work is going very well. I continue to love my job and have no complaints at all which is always good. And I guess that's about it for now...I guess I will BLOG again when I have something new to say. TOODLES!

Where's Rev. Al?!?!

Anyone following the Duke "rape" case? Is it not completely obvious that this woman who claims she was raped is lying? Her co-dancer completely contradicts her story and the time-stamped photos, zero out of 40 DNA matches, ATM time-stamped photos and everything else says she's full of shit. Is it a coincidence that Mike Nifong, the D.A., was pushing this case because he's up for re-election in a largely African-American community? No not at all. Can you say Tawana Brawley? Well, can you? Where's Reverend Al Sharpton calling for the heads of the priveledged white kids like he did during the Tawana Brawley investigation? I think that once this case goes to trial and the Duke students are found innocent, the woman who brought the charges should be tried and prosecuted like Brawley was and sent to prison.

Who ever heard of consucting a police lineup using all Duke lacrosse players?!?!?! Where are the innocent bystanders to fill the police lineup? In other words....this woman could pick ANYONE out of the lineup and it will be a Duke lacrosse player. This case has stink all over it. The D.A. went on and on (in the media.....a true media pig if there ever was one) about how the DNA evidence will be indisputable. The DNA then came back with ZERO matches to any Duke lacrosse player. Pretty fucking amazing. Then the D.A. came out and downplayed the importance of DNA evidence! Fucking jerk-off. Anyway, try the case.....lose it....then let the defense attorneys have a field day suing the piss out of this chick for defaming the names of the innocent students. Not that they would get anything.

Finally Friday

So it was a short week with Columbus Day and all but for some reason it seemed like forever. This weekend we're just gonna lounge around the house and spend lots of time with Stinky. Next Friday I am flying to Tampa for the weekend so I won't get to spend the weekend with her so I am gonna have fun with her this weekend.

What do you think about N Korea? I like how all the clueless libs blame the Bush administration....let's not forget who contributed some of the technology for those slanty eyed bastards to start trying to build nukes....CLINTON and ALBRIGHT! That's right folks they gave the North Koreans reactor technology for their promise not to pursue nuclear weapons. Although I don't think Bush was aggressive enough towards N Korea he is not solely at fault for this. Anyway, they don't even have a nuclear weapon yet so we still have time. Because what exploded was NOT a nuclear weapon. It was the equivalent of a large dirty bomb. The science behind building a nuclear weapon with any kind of significant yield is so friggin hard it's not even funny. Their device was the equivalent of a humongous pile of TNT with some insufficiently enriched plutonium or uranium sitting on top. Not exactly harmless but not a nuclear weapon either.

Elections.....well here's what I think. I do think the republicans will lose seats in the house and senate but they will keep the majority in both. I may be right and I may be wrong but one thing is certain....democrats have no fucking clue and here's why. Scandal after scandal about the republicans (conveniently leaked 45 days out from the elections by democrats) and the libs still can't sew this thing up with any certainty. There are 2 reasons for this: 1) is that the democrats have no ideas at all. When is the last time you heard a democrat campaign on anything other than he disagrees with tax cuts, the war in Iraq, healthcare plans or social security???? When's the last time you heard one of them with an idea of their own? All they do is bash the President which I think people are starting to get sick of. 2) isn't it obvious that all this "news" coming out like the Foley scandal is released 45 days before the election when it is obvious that these folks knew about it for much longer? Like Rep. Chris Shays says (and I am paraphrasing) how is it that Ted Kennedy sank his car in a river drunk and killed a woman and he keeps getting elected? Well because liberals in the state of Massachussetts are fucking morons is the main reason. Bottom line is that people know that this is politics and not liberals caring deeply about the feelings and well-being of the poor kid who got the dirty e mails from Foley. At any rate that's my take on the elections.

Oh and I am keeping my fingers crossed that Hilary Clinton runs for President in 2008. I am HOPING for that. Actually, all republicans are hoping for that.

What else...I heard back from a few of the guys I saw at the reunion that I hadn't heard from in a long time. You know I didn't even realize that the chick who sings that song Who Says you can't go Home with Bon Jovi--her name is Jennifer Nettles--was at my reunion. She's married to one of my classmates. I saw her when I was there and knew she looked familiar but didn't realize it. Pretty funny.

Anyway nothing new or exciting so I will sign off until next week. Hope everyone has a great weekend. TOODLES!

Reunion

Well I am back to work after the weekend of my 10 year reunion. It was AWESOME! We had such a great time. We went to the hotel Friday morning and met up with some buddies at about noon. We all hung out at the hotel bar (imagine that) as it was the declared meeting place for a bunch of us. We shot pool and just caught up all afternoon. Then Friday night we had our big formal banquet there at the hotel and that was also a lot of fun seeing everyone. Saturday morning we drove up to West Point. We met up and watched the parade and it looked pretty awesome. Never saw one from the other side of the parade field. Pretty impressive actually. Then we walked through the barracks and academic area. Nobody's allowed in there except for grads and their families on homecoming weekend and my wife wanted to see it so I took her through there. We walked down to our tailgate party at 11am. It was unbelieveable! A big beer truck was there with 32 kegs, a pig roasting (for after the football game) and all kinds of salads, burgers, dogs, etc. So we all hung out drinking for a few hours, went up to the football game and then stumbled back to the after-game tailgate. We even had a band fly out from Colorado and play for us for no cost. By 6pm the kegs were all floated and they went and got 10 more. So by 9pm we all left for the hotel again with 42 kegs finished and roast pig devoured. By far the most kick ass tailgate party anywhere. We all met at the hotel bar and hung out all night again.

Anyway it was exactly what we all expected....a big drunk fest with lots of embarrassing stories and seeing a bunch of people we haven't see in over 10 years. Anyways, we'll all be back there doing it all over again in 5 years from now. Only I don't know if I will drink that much next time.....yeah right. Anyway I have a bunch of pictures but a lot of them I won't post on here because they're pretty graphic and lewd. I will skim through them and maybe post some of the more tame ones though there aren't many. Hard to believe I spent that much of the weekend streaking and peeing on stuff I probably shouldn't have been peeing on!

Anyway

I am still very upset about the fire at the general store. I am hoping they were well-insured and that they decide to rebuild the place. It really was an awesome place. I know that my stinky would be sad if she knew what happened and that makes me sad.

Today's my last work day until next Tuesday....nice. I am leaving early today to go golfing. Tomorrow I have some stuff to do around the house and pack and then Friday morning we haul ass to my reunion. I am very nervous and expect I will be until it is all over and done with.

Yankees kicked ASS last night. Awesome game.

I keep reading about that useles fuck of an asshole who shot those poor Amish schoolkids. Breaks my heart reading and hearing about it. Too bad he killed himself....I'd have liked to see him tortured and burned alive by someone instead of the quick painless death he didn't deserve.

Anyways, hope everyone has a good weekend. Also, have a great Columbus Day on Monday. I'll get some pictures up soon and will let you know how the reunion went next week....TOODLES!

Bad Bad Day

I am very upset this morning. The general store that I always rave about with the petting zoo and all the cool stuff burned to the ground at around 6am this morning. You can see it at www.wfmz.com We were just there over the weekend for the hayrides and pumpkin festival and were planning on going again in a couple weeks. We're very upset about this.

Although my joy for it is overshadowed by the fire, game one of the ALDS is tonight for my beloved NY Yankees. So I will be sitting at home with my hat and jersey on watching the game. Anyway, I will write more when I get around to it. Bye.

Awww SHIT!

Well the weekend wasn't bad. Saturday was supposed to be nice and Sunday was supposed to rain. So what happened? Saturday rained and Sunday was nice. We took Stinky to the great pocono pumpkin festival at the general store. We went on a hay ride through the cornfields. Then we walked through the cornfield maze. We went into the funhouse. We went on the merry-go-round. I even took stinky on the huge slide where you slide down in the burlap sack and she sat on my lap and loved it. But the BEST part was that she went on her first ride all by herself. It was a bunch of little cars in a circle that just went around and around. We put her in there and she went and waved at us everytime she came around to where we were standing. I got some awesome pictures of everything I will post one of these days. The only bad thing is that she started getting a cold and now I have it too! So stinky and I are both sick and I am sure her mommy isn't too far behind. Hopefully it is out of our system by reunion time this weekend. I have a short work week (Mon - Wed) and a TON of shit to do before I leave on Wednesday afternoon. Anyway, hope everyone had a good weekend. Be talking to you soon....TOODLES.
