ahhh...

Home again, home again, jiggety friggin' jog.

Big sigh of relief.

And, the weather is nice and our windows are open and I am not wearing any pants.

It's good to be home.

things that make you go 'huh?'

Um, PETA,

You seem always to be a bit screwy with your ideas for good advertising and spreading your message, and this game is more of the same. How is this even supposed to be challenging? 'Hmm, is that a squirrel or a particularly large pair of breasts that are entirely too big for the top they're squeezed into?'

'Veggie Love': PETA's Banned Super Bowl Ad

Really? 'Vegetarians Have Better Sex'...with their vegetables? I don't think that's the definition of vegetarian.

(Yes, I know the ad isn't new, but I didn't want to post too many examples of PETA's wackiness here.)

tomorrow's resort?

Can I just begin this by saying I love me some Marlon Brando (even when his Brother Sky* so irritatingly refers to women as 'dolls'). Yes, I can? Okay, then.

So, how about the next time Cardo and I celebrate an anniversary (and the next time we're millionaires), we stay at The Brando? (You have to click on the press release, at least at the time I'm posting this. I'm not sure when the site will be updated.)

* Or, perhaps, Damon Runyon's Sky Masterson. Whoever...the words come out of Brando's mouth in the movie version I've seen countless times.

P. S. I have never seen any of the Godfather films. :gasp!:

tomorrowland?

Is this the future of amusement parks? I'm not quite sure what this site's (what I've linked) purpose is. Perhaps, though, this is an alternative to Disneyland, somewhere to take Pic when we are ready to try out the amusement park thing.

By the way, I think the name needs some rethinking.

men, men, men, men, manly men

I love this Target Women video.



Although Haskins is discussing commercials here, I've had this complaint about sitcoms for quite some time now. I'm annoyed with the idea that the wives in the sitcoms I've seen seem so with-it. They're good looking, in shape and intelligent. Their counterparts however? Bumbling, emotionally-stunted, often much less fit than the women. I'd hate to be a man watching these shows. It's been a while since I've watched any sitcoms but I have a feeling not much has changed.

One other thing, from here. I won't add to the comments. Just something to think about.



----------------------------

P.S. I have watched Two and a Half Men, hence my title here, but the show made me so crazy that I finally realized how much of my time I was wasting with it and gave it up.

summer vacation...

This year, I've been seeing an abundance of wordplay with the word 'vacation,' and I find it all annoying. I don't know why I'm so irked, but I am. Here are the ones I've recently seen:

- staycation
- breakation
- spacation
- minication

All annoying.

metaphorically speaking

The other day, Pic and I were out for a walk and a snack. The conversation turned to our friends Coach J and Destructor. (Pic was asking if Destructor was coming over to our place.) I was telling Pic that Coach J had run a marathon in October and Pic responded, 'I'm running a marathon.'

'Oh, really?' I asked.

'Yes, I'm my fousand kids' mother, remember.'

[I think I have forgotten to mention the 'fousand kids' somehow. Recenty, Pic has decided that she has a thousand kids, go figure. They come almost everywhere with us. She went around and asked a bunch of people if she could take their kids off their hands and they all said yes. This is how she tells it anyhow.]
