Bullriders and Bicyclist Unite!

Watching the Tour of Ireland on Versus.   Direct TV is running a scroll at the bottom of the screen that they may quit carrying Versus August 31 due to a contract dispute.  Is that a negotiating ploy?  Am I supposed to call Phil and Paul or "a certain Mr. Lance Armstrong" and tell them to cave in?  What that did was have me confirm that Dish has Versus, Speed, Fox Soccer and Fox News (Beck and OReilly = greatest comedy team since Martin and Lewis).  Way to drive your customers to check out your competitor.  Dumbass.

Direct TV, I've been with you since the Prime Star days in the bachelor pad, but I fully intend to follow up on my email tonight that I will drop you like a hot rock if I don't have Versus on September 1. 

Speaking of dumbass check this out.  Good thing he doesn't have any power in this deal or anything. Oh wait he does.  What a dick.

Man I feel old

John Hughes died. Check out this list. 1983-89. 

Thanks for the laughs.

80's weekend

The K Mobile 1989-1995. Best car I ever owned. Saw this beauty coming back from the courthouse last Thursday. This baby still has the crease in the gas tank cover from attempting an ill advised fueling attempt late one evening.

Speaking of ill advised.

Notice the heater at the end of the propane box. Genius. I took this by Six Flags on a ride up at the in-laws Saturday around Wildwood.

They paved the roads again around Wildwood(they were about 2 years old). This is the best ride around.

Hit Castlewood Friday evening with the K lady and the father in law (his home course. He lives 3 minutes away from a connecter trail. That's rough.)

Ran into the K Lady and her father Saturday.
Went to the little lady's high school reunion. It was fantastic.

I avoided mine like broken glass, but going to someone else's is great. I highly recommend it.

A few highlights:

Some guy may or may not have brought a stripper (judging by her outfit/dancing, I voted yes).

Some guy was going on about how much money he made, till someone called him out for a recent bankruptcy.

Some girl came up to one of the k lady's friends and said "you know, you were a real bitch in high school, but I kind of like you now".

Sunday went to the ball game.

If could go back in time

Seeing Shatner on Conan reminded me of this gem I found a few years ago.  If I could go back in time I would pay $100 go back to 1978 to sit in the audience at this award show.

Nice farewell speech by the pitbull.  Why don't you stop talking for a while.

Know your farmer

After the sugar buzz crash from  the sudden withdrawal of the nightly Tour de France fix, the K Lady and I ventured back into the real world.

Went to see Food Inc at the Moxie

Fantastic.  You will feel like a dickhead for eating fast food.

WWJD

You know the germans make good stuff.  

Help a brother out

One of the down sides of having a sweet wife is that on occasion you wind up with a few of these.  This little son of a gun was found at the garden.

About 10 weeks old.  A pretty nice little fella.  

I am paying for shots and snipping. 

Perfect for Sophia Nelson or Eliana Farasy.  

Somebody take this thing off my hands.
