Cool Picture


Someone sent this to me... look closely (click on it to blow it up) at the baseball as it hits Albert's bat during a swing. You can see the baseball actually dent in!

Happy Monday!

Bill Clinton received an honor over the weekend -- when the people of Kosovo honored the former President with his very own statue. It was a very special moment and the statue was very realistic... so much in fact that the Clinton statue was humping all of the other statues.


Yeah, Bill had to travel overseas because he was being honored with a statue -- or at least that's what he told Hillary.

Hope everyone had a great Halloween... Funny moment, my little cousin was with me watching TV on Saturday night and he asked who the scary looking witch was on TV.... and I had to tell him oh, that's just Nancy Pelosi.


A new study says that bad driving most likely is genetic and comes from your Mom or Dad.... moral of the story, never accept a ride home from Billy Joel's daughter.

Yesterday was the day we turned our clocks back one hour to Standard time. It was also the second time in a week that those Northwest Airlines pilots got an extra hour of sleep.

Well, the Yankees beat the Angels last night, and advance to the World Series against the Phillies. Boy, things are really starting to look bad for the Cardinals.

And everybody is talking about Mark McGwire coming back to the Cardinals next season as a batting coach. McGwire of course was part of the long list of famous people accused of taking steroids: McGwire, Alex Rodriguez, Barry Bonds, Janet Reno....

Hard to believe that Halloween is coming up this weekend.... some people get into Halloween more than others. For example, Dick Cheney gets a kick out of waterboarding the neighborhood kids.

Former President Bush -- he says he'll spend Halloween the way he always does -- hiding eggs in the front lawn.

Short Showers

Here's a great example of what happens when you let government get too much power. In Venezuela, the government has required its citizens to only shower for 3 minutes. 3 minute showers.

People all over the world were shocked and stunned -- for example, people in France said "Who wastes 3 minutes showering?"

Bad Day

Wednesday, October 21, 2009

The umpires blew a bunch of calls in last night's Yankees - Angels game. It had a real effect on the outcome of the game. If they had better umpires, Instead of being humiliated, the Angels could've been merely trounced.

Yep. Merely trounced or as the Rams call it Sunday.

A new study says that married people in Britain get what they're calling an 11 year itch -- because that's the length of an average marriage before a couple gets divorced. To be fair, the itching starts at 7 years but they use calamine lotion for the last 4.

A man is in trouble for indecent exposure for making coffee naked in front of a window in his kitchen. Nice goin Ned.

The Dumbing Down Of America

Some woman from the Missouri Department of Health stopped by and asked us to post these signs in the restroom. Your tax dollars at work ladies and gentleman.

That's right - we're now supposed to instruct people on how to wash their hands.

Good thing I read the sign, because for years I've been rinsing before I wet.

Well pretty weird yesterday -- everyone thought a little kid was stuck in a helium balloon flying high above Colorado. Of course, when the balloon crashed emerggency workers found nobody inside it. President Obama heard about it and blamed the whole thing on George Bush.

President Obama visited New Orleans yesterday and said he was helping the city rebuild. Obama took credit for dozens of reconstruction projects, billions of dollars in aid and getting Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian back together.


The President said the city still needs lots of work since the big Hurricane. To which FEMA said: "When was there a Hurricane?"

Joe Biden was in Saint Louis yesterday. That's right - I don't care either.

And finally....

The Smithsonian announced today that they will have an exhibit dedicated to human evolution. The time line exhibit ends with the modern day human... and goes back millions of years and starts with Outdoors Ned.

This is pretty disgusting -- police arrested a man after multiple instances of "obscene live conduct" -- court documents show that the man was walking around a local costco store playing with himself and walking around the store with with an erection.

*Nice goin, Ned.

Study finds 50% of French kids use cell phones in class. Now if we can only get the same number to use deoderant

Entertainment news -- Paul Anka is upset and has threatened to sue the Jackson family because he claims he co-wrote this latest Michael Jackson song that just came out. It's not all bad news for Paul though, until this came out, everybody thought he was dead.

Ultimate Fighting champ Chuck Liddell was voted off Dancing With the Stars last night. Although, Chuck was the toughest, meanest, most dangerous contestant they ever had, not counting Lil' Kim.

In Germany, a 22-year-old journalism student was angry when he was removed for not having a ticket. So he mooned the crew through the glass of the train's sliding doors. He didn't realize his dropped pants were caught in the door. He was dragged off the platform half-naked, hanging by his pants, and 200 yards down the track before someone pulled the emergency brake. *Hey dropping your pants is dangerous -- just ask David Letterman.

In The News

A new poll found that the most annoying phrase is "whatever". "Whatever" is the most annoying phrase. The second most annoying phrase: "I'm putting all my money on the Cardinals".

Yeah I was really hoping we'd pull out a win -- the whole day was a disaster, My friends and I were watching the game, decked out in our Cardinals gear, had a full spread of food and drink, and then, the people at Best Buy asked us to leave.

Last week on The Office, Jim and Pam got married. It was a nice to see an office romance on TV besides David Letterman's.

And the National Enquirer is quoting show insiders that say Dave liked his office lovers to "dress up," including one who had to prance around with pom-poms, playing a cheerleader. No, I'm sorry -- that was Paul Shaffer.

A lot of people still talking about how Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday. After much confusion about why he won the award -- turns out the they thought he deserved it for surviving a full year living with his mother in law.

I don't get it -- First, they award Obama the Nobel Peace Prize -- and then as if that wasnt strange enough, the NFL announced they're giving the Super Bowl trophy to the Rams.

R.I.P. Uncle Bob

Over the weekend, my Dad's brother (my Uncle) passed away. He was mildly retarded, and lived out in the country. He had a pretty rough life, but always seemed to fight his way through. As anyone with a mentally handicapped friend or family member will tell you, there are always times when they can make you laugh and smile like nobody else. One of those times was in 1998 when my Uncle Bob was telling us stories that he wrote. He came up with a story about two chickens (he owned two chickens) named Hertha and Evelyn. (Those were the names of my Great Grandma, and Grandma)

While you might not appreciate it as much as I do, I still thought some of you might get a kick out of hearing Bob tell one of his stories. I also thought I could post this in his honor. He didn't have very many friends and only had a small number of family members. I'd like to think he'd get a kick out of people all over the world hearing him talk, if only just for a few minutes.

HERE it is. (The audio will automatically start playing, just make sure your speakers are up.)

Idiot!

A man is in trouble after his little boy took a bag of cocaine to class and shared it with his friends. Seems his Dad put it in his backback out of fear the cops were going to find it, and told his kid it was candy.

The whole incident took place at the Courtney Love Elementary School.

John Edwards Gossip

A new book says that John Edwards tried to get a doctor to lie about the DNA of his mistress' baby.

Although, it's not too tough to tell the baby is his -- the kid's favorite toy is his little hair brush.

The Cubs tied a MLB record by getting eight consecutive hits in the first inning.

That brings their total hits this season to 8.

Anyone Can Be On Youtube

This is a video of some girl who is obsessed with Cardinals outfielder, Colby Rasmus. I guess she wrote this song herself? I give her props for putting it together -- the singing, not so great, but that's okay.

Yard Work!!


I think I've had perhaps the most accomplished weekend I've had in the past 5 years. Check out my new flower beds in the front yard. Granted, there are no flowers in there just yet! I'll do that in the Spring, but the mulch is in and the lights are in place! What a pain hauling all of those stones, too. But, the hard work paid off -- it looks pretty good!

Election Day

Today is Election Day in Afghanastan. The current President has the lead in most of the polls there.

No wonder. He's using a pretty popular campaign slogan: "Turbans You Can Believe In."

Another politician is doing what he can to get votes. He's promised if elected, he'll start a new government program called: "Cash For Camels".

New Study

A new study says that immigrants are more likely to carpool than others.

I guess that makes sense, that's what happens when you're used to riding around in a trunk with fourteen other people.

New Secret Service Book

The new book by Ronald Kessler is really getting a lot of attention -- it's about the Presidents and their families through the eyes of the Secret Service. A lot of good stories in there, about what goes on behind the scenes.

For example, during the Bush years, oval office meetings often started late, because George W. Bush refused to turn off his Play Station 3.

Another secret service agent answers a question many of us have wondered about -- he said that once a day, for about an hour.. President Obama sits by himself and answers prayer requests.
