Contradiction

Posted by Yabu at 05:17 PM

Years ago, my buddy the Silk Glider and I signed a deal that ended up giving us many stories that we continue to laugh about. More on that later. So after we inked the contract, this guy gave us front row tickets to go see Culture Club. I was all like, “who in the fuck is Culture Club?” The Silk Glider said he had no idea. The show started in an hour and we had no time to change, so, in our seersucker summer suits, thin silk ties, and white starched shirts, we went for it. I can tell you this for sure, we were the only only ones dressed like us. It felt like we were walking into a movie. We stood out.

I’ve been to many concerts in my life, but this one was one of the best. I swear to The Maker it was. The sound was perfect, the lighting was perfect, it was an experience…it was a production. I was dancing with aliens. Unbelievable. I gave my tie to some chick who looked like she was from another planet. We had a great time.

You have to trust me on this. It will make you wiggle a little bit.

Four More

Posted by Yabu at 10:55 AM

A few more from the Juju Woman, but like always…these are a bitch to photograph…and I have a halfway decent camera, heck if I know. These are sun-catcher panels with bevels. They project really beautiful rainbow patterns behind them. I need more window space, for sure. These are 3.5 X 10.0 in. We sold ‘em for like ” “cheap”. It’s not about the money, it’s about the window space. You want one, send me an email…35 bucks and I’ll pay the shipping and insurance. Seriously, I’m running out of window space. They are all “one of a kind”, and you can choose the color of the glass, and pattern. I’m in no way whoring out the Juju Woman, but I do need some more clear real estate. They are one of a kind. Might be worth a million dollars on E-Bay in the future. Bwahahahahahah!

Just A Thought

Posted by Yabu at 01:53 PM

There is no fury like that of a scorned woman. That is a fact.

So, Marianne Gingrich has said she could end her ex-husband’s career with a single interview. She granted ABC news that interview. Why in the fuck would she want to do that. I guess, revenge. Is she lying, or not? Who knows? Who cares? I’ll tell you cares…the liberal media, that’s who. They’re bottom feeders. So ABC is going to air the interview before the SC primary. Is that “unethical”, hell if I know, but it sure is “poor taste”. ABC wants to do as much damage as possible. They benefit from liberalism. The liberals are running scared. Hell, he got a divorce in 1999, so what? Clinton got a blow-job in the Oval Office while he was married, was impeached, and ABC stood by him. That’s hypocritical if you ask me. Once we let the media encourage or make decisions for the people, we’re fucked. This is not news, it’s gossip.

I like Newt. I think he’s the smartest of all the GOP candidates, but I will vote for my neighbors dog before I vote for Obama. I would love to see him debate Obama, and I would like to see kids earning some cash and learning some discipline by keeping their schools clean…if you get my drift…so to say.

These liberals make me want to blow a vein in my head. I just do not understand how people can be so shallow.

If you want to buy my gas and pay my mortgage; send me an email, and I’ll send you something back.

What are people thinking?

The sad fact is…the Presidency is for sale…it’s all about the money. Obama has a billion dollars in his war chest…watch what happens, this is going to get much more ugly. You can thank the left media for that.

This is all up and fucked up.

Excuse my language.

Pizza…Too Much Dough

Posted by Yabu at 10:08 AM

Yesterday, I was so pissed about the bills in the House and Senate that challenge, in my opinion, the basic premise of Freedom of Speech. The government wants to control the people like the Borg. Eventually, they want to assimilate you. They’re taking baby steps now, but wait and see what happens if they’re successful. I’ve been aware of these bills for a while, but when major web sites go “dark” in protest…well, all I can say is to pay attention to what that government intends to be the end result. Think ahead. They’re testing the waters, so to say.

So, last night I created a new pizza with a different dough recipe. I call it the Too Much Government Pizza. I had to name it something, and it felt like a good idea at the time. I still think it was a good idea, and it was good…especially for new dough. I like new dough. If you don’t know, dough is a bitch to get right, especially on the first time. Three cheeses, bacon, onion, artichokes, poblano peppers, some herbs out of our garden, and some tomato sauce I put up last summer, and fresh garlic. The Juju Woman gave it an eight…not bad for a first shot, and she doesn’t like too much dough. Also, had a nice bottle of red table wine to take the edge off.

BEFORE

AFTER

The dinosaurs signify mother and daughter, or mother and son, or father and daughter, or father and son. It it is what it is.

Damn good pizza is all I can say.

Stretch And A Small Buck

Posted by Yabu at 01:33 PM

Stretch went after him the other day. He’s all like…“there’s another one…WTF is it?”

I’m serious, he’s gonna get his ass killed if he’s not careful. Things happened so fast, I couldn’t get a picture of the chase (and I had the long lens on) after he cut to the chase. Ever seen a doxie go after a deer? Fortunately, the buck broke for cover, but I’m telling you, this little doggie is fearless…and it might be his downfall. Stretch scares the shit out of me sometimes. I did not have my 45-70 with me.

The Problem With Bookshelves…

Posted by Yabu at 05:21 PM

…is that I have a BUNCH of ‘em. They’re (my books) all in there vertical, and I’m tired of turning my head sideways to read the title. I’m going horizontal. I’m tired of twisting my neck to the left or to the right to read titles. I’m stacking ‘em from here on out. I might lose a little space, but I’ll just get more book shelves. I don’t know why I didn’t think of this earlier. Don’t get me wrong, I love my Nook, but I have so many books the E-Reader can’t compensate. I also have a homemade tool that works fine for removing and replacing a hardback or paperback book back in its place. It works just fine, no matter how low on the shelf the book is. I call it my “Book Wedge”. Everyone needs a book wedge if they know how to read. I kid you not!

Prejudice

Posted by Yabu at 11:34 AM

I am prejudice, yes I am. I’m prejudice against ignorance. I could care less if someone is black, white, red, yellow, or pink purple polka dotted. I am American, plain and simple. I’m not a European American (although that’s where my ancestors came from) , a African American, a Asian American, a Hispanic American, a Klingon American, a Native American, a Arabic American,,,etc, but I am an American…I am a Mutt. I’m not Northern, Southern, Eastern, or Western…I am a Mutt of doubtful pedigree, and proud of it. I am who I am. I can’t change my roots. We live in troubled times these days, and maybe all of us Mutts can for once…make a decision that is best for all. I have many friends of all color, and I hope they will follow principals and convictions, not color. Color and Race does not matter in the end, or at all.

It makes no difference where you came from, but it does make a difference where you’re going.

Just sayin”.

Ineptocracy

Posted by Yabu at 01:39 PM

From the mail bag…I love this word.

Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) – a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

That just about nails it.

Snowshoes

Posted by Yabu at 08:54 AM

My little buddy Stretch has genetically built in snowshoes. He can run full-blast on top of the white, although he does spin out occasionally. Too damn funny. He can also do the “snow plow”. “Stretch” in Juju speak, translates to “relentless pursuit”. He also has Radar Ears. The thrill of the chase, I think. He never ceases to amaze me. Reminds me of when I was in high school. He’s a good dog, period.

Early To Rise

Posted by Yabu at 09:48 AM

Today is the six month anniversary “of when” the Juju Woman started to swim and run every morning at 5:30 am. Things have changed. I’m up everyday, and I do mean everyday, at 5:00 am. Stretch is up at 5:00 am. His cycle has adjusted. He is “barking-ass hungry” at five. I should rename him to “Slinker”. He now expects to be fed at that time. He is relentless. If you don’t get up…he will give you the Atomic Head Slam…no way anyone could sleep through that. He has perfected the “wake up call”. No alarm clocks needed around here. I’m thinking of getting him a job at a hotel.

As a result of the Juju Women’s new project…she is toned..I see the dawn and the sunrise every day. I go to bed earlier. The dog goes to bed earlier. This “spring ahead fall back” shit doesn’t matter. Stretch operates on a 24 hour clock regardless of the time zone biannual adjustments. He was born in DST…I think that has something to do with it…just a guess. I am losing sleep over it, yes I am. If I wanted to sleep in, I’d have to board his ass.

Here he is giving me another “look”. He has many. I call this the “bar-code look” , because you could scan the hair on the top of his head. That inquisitive look.

Anyway, I’ve seen every dawn for the last six months, which is not a bad thing…I guess.
