I hate the British...

The apocalypse is upon us! (although I am sure they will sell well in America. God this country is lazy...and that is coming from me).

Stupidity strikes again

As I was pulling into the Sam's Club parking lot today (and yes it was for work), I received a call from the store. The manager on duty was asking if I had done anything with the tip money before I had left. There had been at least $3 in singles plus some change in it for the employees to split. I had not done anything so I told them I would watch the video camera playback when I got back to the store.

After about 2 minutes of watching the camera, I see it: a fat woman stealing $3 out of our tip jar. Who steals $3 anyway/

The best part of the whole ordeal? She then proceeds to ask for an application. Classic. I look forward to her turning in her application. I just hope she turns it into me.

Gotta love those car companies...

In a shocking revelation I actually found something worthwhile on msnbc.com. I can't believe it myself. I am sure everyone by now has seen the ads on TV where you can buy a Chrysler car and get a locked-in gas price of $2.99/gallon for 3 years. While, everything is not quite what it seems with that deal.

I can't really blame them; I am all for capitalism. But this just reminds to me to be skeptical of any 'deal' I hear about on television.

Obama at it again...

I can't honestly believe that Barack Obama is going to be the next president of the United States. Lord, help us all. In a classic dirty political backtrack, Obama has rescinded his pledge to use public funding in the election. All of his messages about change and hope don't seem to apply to him. He seems to feel he sets the ground rules for this election; whether its with his wife, his past, or his 'feelings' toward the country about to elect him. I have my problems with McCain, but he has stayed true to his word so far and will apparently use the public funds. This of course puts him at a great disadvantage in terms of spending.

"We have to reject the candidates who use gutter politics to get elected, and we have to favor the ones who put principles over party and political games.

We the people still have the ultimate voice in this country, and we can change our course by empowering those who not only stand for the truth but will fight for it.

When politicians are forced to care about every voter, when they are constantly reminded that they serve at the will of the people, when we start to reconnect with our values, politicians will be forced to reconnect with us."

Glenn Beck: Recommended Reading

Purchased Glenn Beck's An Inconvenient Book last night, and so far it has been well worth it. The first chapter tears down the farce that is 'Global Warming' (I will now always use quotations when referencing it) and the third chapter tackles the problem arising from Radical Islam. What has transpired in Europe is mind-boggling and makes me worry for our future if this era of 'political correctness' continues down its current path.

Eating Habit

As most anyone who knows me is aware, I have quite possibly the strangest eating habits known to mankind. The last few months, however, I have shocked many by adding new items to my diet. First, I added ranch dressing. May not seem like much, but for me, trying any new food is a challenge. It also provided the gateway into the next item: boneless wings - namely Asian Zing boneless from BW3. I tried TGI Fridays' boneless and I did not like those at all. I actually even tried actual drumsticks from BW3 (with the Asian Zing sauce, of course) and ate 2. They are fairly good sized drumsticks so it was a decent effort. It is nice to finally have a meat other than bacon in my diet. Just his past week, I also ate cheese for the first time in probably 12 years, and back then it was only grilled cheese sandwiches. At work, I made a pizza with olive oil & garlic sauce with parmesan on top. The next day, I had a pizza with ranch, buffalo chicken, mozzarella and parmesan cheeses on it.

I may never have a full diet of a normal person but adding just these few things does show progress.

Happy Father's Day

That is all.
