Gotta Love Lent

That 2 filet-o-fish deal is awesome. They are, aside from McMuffins, the best thing to eat at the Arches. Some people however, take the religion thing too far.

the customer crawled out of his car and into the drive thru window to get his fish sandwich...
...His was taking too long at 4:30 in the morning

Money quote symbolizing the American dream...

After he slaps him, he takes his food

I love America.

Everybody loves food.

I am awake at that hour. My thought is...How can you pass up $1 breakfast burritos?

I'm Not Sure What You're Eating...

...But fiscal responsibility sure isn't it. Though that does sound delicious, the responsibility that is. Too bad that there is a lot of traffic generated, and my flimsy excuse for a computer cant get to the website right now.

aside...One thing I do not tolerate is smut. No questions, no answers, I think the whole industry is flat out wrong. Except for the 80 year old woman mashing potatoes with her feet. Good luck finding those videos bitches.

I guess this broke with this website and it's bow-tied author.

Back to the point.

Steele has come under steady fire for his financial stewardship of the organization. The RNC had more than $22 million on hand when Steele arrived last year, but is down to under $10 million now despite raising $96 million during that time

This is why I tore up my party card a bunch of years ago. W, whom I voted for with hindsight being 20/20, created the largest bureaucracy in US history. Now, this party runs on cutting spending?

Where are the cuts in your own party pal?

$1,946.25 to Voyeur in West Hollywood for, uh, meals. Meals, huh? And quite a menu they have at Voyeur, according to write-ups in the Los Angeles Times about the new club

Do you remember the post I made about hypocrites? Me either. I will leave you with this to roll around in your head for a while.

The RNC spent more than $17,000 on private jet travel in February as well as nearly $13,000 for limousines and car services

That is one month. It's Good to see all of the money donated by these idiots people is going to the right place.

I Am Truly Sorry


One thing this week. I am tired and don't really care about your weekly ray of sunshine on an otherwise cloudy day. Believe it folks.

Too Bad

There is this too. Good luck driving north...And too bad that there isn't anything up there.

My take? If the current gov., and Gov. of the state now did not rob the transportation fund in every year that he was in office, and the needed construction was done at the time of necessity, this would not clog up the busiest freeway interchange in the state.

Here is a PDF of a statement from the mayor at the time. 2005. Thought I bet his intentions were really good and his knowledge of the situation were equal, here is the money quote.

"Unlike the Marquette Interchange, the Zoo Interchange will stand long enough for us to resolve these issues."

Yes, I don't travel north via that interchange all that often, why would I want to commune with those northern people? But the shipping industry, by truck that is, will be seriously impeded. So that means my job will become more difficult.

And that makes me angry.

TV or not TV

For those of my 5 readers who watch too much TV, I have this. But there is this widget. For all of the avid fans. Or this Blog, for the really avid fans. Myself, I have not watched a singe episode. I know from things I hear that it was running down anyway. So there's that.

Pitching and Crying

Not as a result of this post, Schoenweis went and got himself not so released today.

The only regret I have is that I wasted a month of my time, Schoeneweis said. I didn't have a chance to make the team

Cry buddy...this guy has given up more than one run an inning to date, albeit spring ball. You can see this list for the details.

It's just ironic that I can't get a job because my wife died. It doesn't make much sense to me

I am truly sorry for your loss sir, but the numbers don't add up, as far as the career path you have chosen.

Schoeneweis had a 7.71 ERA, but that number can be particularly deceptive in Spring Training for left-handed specialists because they are not used in lefty-on-lefty situations like they would be in the regular season

Really? When you are a "big league pitcher..." for 12 years, you clearly know your roll. Your roll is to be average, if not less than. If not to be a pile of suck.

I know 100 percent that I am a big league pitcher, bottom line

Good luck pal. I get that your wife died. That really isn't something that anyone should have to deal with. But that is not the reason for your shitty performance. That is not the reason for your "release." Am I an asshole for looking at the numbers?

One Way Or the Other


Though I don't agree with it, Here is a good article about the issue.

FYI...I really don't like this lady.

People Who Play Music Despite the Cold

For this semi-regular installment, I went hunting around the internets for bands from my fair city. There are the obvious like the Bodeans, who are like nails on a chalkboard. And the Femmes. Here are some others, perhaps more modern.

Emo, or hipster. Whatever you pick...


Good?


More Emo? Jesus, you'd think we were depressed...


The live ones all suck. But My buddy partied with them once in Madison. That was a long time ago.


They used to come to my college all the time. The one guy was cool...


As far as 90's pop goes, they were the best. the one CD I have from them is still good.


There are these too.

Where Is the Albatross?

Here is a post from Brewers guy...

Let me be clear. I don't like him, and think he is the equivalent of Darth Vader. But he is the person at spring training so he is the only person I have to comment on. What with Tony Witrado adjusting his hat and all.

He alludes to the fact that Chris Narveson will make a showing so as to stay on track. This indicates a starting position.

My question is...Where is the 12 million dollar necklace around the owner's neck? And where is the highly touted lefty who can't find his head? Not that I want soupcan in the rotation, and not that I want to get rid of Parra. But where do these players fit in as the former makes too much money, and the latter has no options.

Yes...I reference myself, but I think myself is an intelligent referencer.
