bet he wishes he could take this back

ohhhh the things that slip out when we least think:

congressman john dingel - 3/22/10
"The harsh fact of the matter is when you're going to pass legislation that will cover 300 [million] American people in different ways it takes a long time to do the necessary administrative steps that have to be taken to put the legislation together to control the people."

manOman - sounds so hitler like, doncha think?

let's see now - he's a michigan congressman right? isn't that where detroit is? where the overtake of government motors (formerly general motors) has produced an unemployment rate of what? 25-30-50% ?

yeh, how's that 'control' - and 'hope & change' thing working for them?

i'll think about it

every morning when i wake, i lay there for a second and tell myself, "today i am not going to smoke."

then i bounce up out of bed (yeh, bounce may be a bit misleading) and head to the kitchen to get the cough going - oops i meant to say, get the coffee going and then i stroll out to the garage, light one up, and think about it some more.

the terminally ill nation

i think i'm going to be physically sick over what this lackey of a president and his congress did to this nation with their 'health care reform' bill. this country is in debt beyond their ears to china and then they drag us down even further? AND to top it off, not ONE of the congress pimples will ever feel the effects of shitty health care - because they are exempt from this monstrosity. that's right - it's good 'nuf for us peons - but not good 'nuf for them and their families. clearly they are not there to represent us - just their own fuckin egos. elitist bastards.

health care is not a right.
life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are rights.

c'mon november, we will remember.
i say flip 'em all -- if it says incumbent on the ballot - vote for anyone but them.

greedyGreedGREEDY selfish bastards

head count by a dickhead

i do not generally get the mail unless it's near the fourth of the month, when i think my check will be here. every few days for the past month i asked the malemate if the census had arrived. so, clearly, he knew i wanted to check it out and fill it out.

it arrived yesterday.


right away he starts filling in the blanks. i told him that i wanted to do it and that all we had to complete was the number in the household -- and that was all i wanted on there.

so, he throws it in the air and stomps off.

a couple hours later i took a glance at it - and there he had filled out a bunch of shit on it - but with just a glance, i did not see everything. i figured i would give it a thorough looksee when he left to go bowling.

after he was gone, i went to check it out.
it was nowhere to be found.

when he came home he informed me that he had completed and mailed it.

huh? i didn't even get to see all of it and he already has it in the mail? so, i asked if he put it in our mailbox.

no, he had mailed it on the way to bowling last night.

what the fuck? he always puts outgoing mail in our mailbox. so just what did he put on that census? obviously, he's guilty of something.
he did inform me that he had included the phone number and our birthdates!

as of today, i am not speaking to him.
i'll just let it brew and simmer and then we'll see where it goes.

jackass.

a curious conversation

i type for a living and sometimes you overhear some of the strangest things when the dictator forgets to turn off the dictation machine before he/she answers a phone call - or speaks with other staffers.
this particular one was by one of the foreigner ppl that i type and it was not only strange - but actually kinda scary.

phone rings (really cool middle eastern ringtone too) -

dictator answers: "hey. hi. starting about 9:00? okay. that will be great. wonderful. great, thanks man. (pause-listening)
say again? he's dead. he's dead. yeh. you think he's sedated? i don't think he's sedated. i don't think he's sedated. ask the nurse. i don't think he's sedated. probably. just be careful to see if you don't have any sedation running over there or hanging on the other patient. yeh, if you don't see any sedation running then i think he's dead. he's got propofol running over there? okay. yeh, yeh, yeh. just make sure you have the correct medication list with the patient that is running before you come down. ask the nurse. maybe just run it to sedation, but i think he's dead."

so, one has to question with what? 8-12 years of higher education and they still can't tell if a person is dead or sedated? yikes!

you think i look what??

it's feeling like the realdeal spring these days. and with that, i decided to give myself a new head - ummm, i mean haircut.
so i dug out the trustee flowbee and away i went.

i took it down to about 1" long, gooped it up with that great 'got2b' product, put a face on and went out to show&tell the malemate.

he's at the computer focused on some mind-numbing game and i say, "ooooooo i think i look soooooo much better."

the malemate looks at me and says, "no you don't. no, not at all."

i stand there in total shock.

he continues staring at me with that, 'what did i say wrong?' look.

finally, i remember that his hearing is going to hell and i ask, "do you even know what i said?"

the malemate just keeps staring at me - now with the beginnings of a horrified look.

i repeated: "i said i think i look so much BETTER."

he burst out laughing and says, "omg! i thought you said you looked so much FATTER!"

yeh, i got the malemate pr'E well trained, doncha think?
