What can I say?

Jon | June 29, 2009

We seem to have the most dysfunctional state legislature in the nation.
Thanks so much for wasting 3 weeks of our tax dollars (so far!), you gaggle of useless, greedy, bureaucratic, mindless, petty, childish, stupid, lazy, ugly, smelly, rotten, good-for-nothing-but-flattening-the fat-growing-on-your-wart-covered-butts morons.

Purge

Jon | June 25, 2009

Dear Karen,
Its been a long time.  How are you?  I was thinking about you today and there is something I really need to tell you after all these years.
You were a flaming jerk.
No seriously.  I know we were supposed to be very good friends, and we spent a lot of time together through much of [...]

Wordpress HATES my blog!

Jon | April 8, 2009

I’ve had trouble commenting on people’s blogs.  I make a comment, it doesn’t show up in the comment list.  I try to post again and it says “Duplicate comment.  You just said that!”.  The comments never show up, not in the bloggers spam pile either.
So tonight when I was commenting, I first tried the usual [...]

turn off the fan!

Jon | April 4, 2009

Egads it was horrendously windy today.  I swear my feet were coming off the ground at one point.
I wasn’t able to do my pushup/chair workout on Friday morning because my son had a friend sleeping over and they were sleeping in the den where the Captain’s Chair is.  So I ended up doing my workout [...]

Running and chocolate

Jon | March 22, 2009

I keep getting hits from people searching for “chocolate bad for running” or something similar.  I’m not sur e why.  Let me make this perfectly clear.  Chocolate is good for running.  Anyone who says otherwise is a damn liar and a scoundrel and should be run out of town on a rail.  Let that be [...]

So, when did Google get so paranoid??

Jon | January 31, 2009

While searching sites today on Google, I discovered that it is listing almost every site as dangerous, saying “This site may harm your computer.”  When you click on it, Google sends you to a security page and REFUSES to link you there.  If you want to go to that site, then you have to cut [...]

The I-Hate-Winter post

Jon | January 28, 2009

I hate winter.  Hate.Winter. Hate it.  Hate. Hate. Hate. Hate. Hate winter.
If you were winter?  I would hate you too.
Am I clear on this?  I hate winter.
I used to like winter.  I liked the snow and even the ice.  I liked running in the cold.
But now I hate it.  Its so damn cold ALL THE [...]

Dear Old Man

Jon | November 29, 2008

Dear Old Man in the Glenville Queen Diner in Glenville, NY, wearing the black and white houndstooth patterned cap, who looked like he had one foot in the grave and one foot on a banana peel,
I’m sorry if you felt we were laughing too loudly, but asking us “Do you think you are at home?” [...]

Smoker’s suck

Jon | November 24, 2008

I’m sorry if you are a friend of mine and you smoke, but I’ve really had it with smokers ruining things.
Today we got a box from an Ebay auction.   It was 16 pounds of Lego blocks that my wife for my son for Christmas.  She paid alot of money for them.  The seller has perfect [...]

Words you don’t want to hear at the Dentist

Jon | September 30, 2008

Me:  Sitting in the chair after hygienist, “Nancy”, has cleaned my teeth.
Dentist: I hope I don’t catch Nancy’s cold.  It sounds pretty awful.
Me: !!!!!!
