The Obama Administration has announced it is going to impose a 40% tax on aspirin because it's white and it works!!!

Is it just me or is rock finally making a major comeback? Check out this awesome new vid from Halestorm. It looks like it came straight out of the 80's and as we all know, the 80's were the pinnacle of everything that was just and right with the world. \m/

This is totally random but I was channel surfing earlier today and saw Jennifer Tilly on one those poker shows. It probably doesn't take a genius to figure out what caught my attention (hint: it wasn't her poker face) but then one of the commentators mentioned that she was 52 YEARS OLD. 52! Yeah, like holy crap she looks insanely hot to be 52. If they ever have a Miss Cougar USA competition I'm going all in for Jennifer Tilly.

See what I did there. I used the poker term "going all in" to articulate my no so subtle thoughts about Jennifer Tilly being a cougar. Damn I'm smart. Now where's my Nobel Piece Prize?

This should be mandatory viewing for all Americans

I guess this should come as no surprise but the Obamessiah vigorously defended the building of a $100 Million Islamic cultural center and mosque just two blocks from Ground Zero this week. Obama's comments came at the annual dinner in the White House State Dining Room celebrating the Islamic holy month of Ramadan...naturally.

At this point, I can't imagine how many more ways Obama can demonstrate that he is clearly against the the American people but I'm sure he'll find a way. Even sadder are all the people who still believe in this clown. I'd wager that if we had a picture of Obama playing golf with Satan himself there would still be people who'd support him.

Yes, it's true!!! We actually got married this weekend in a small ceremony by our pool on the ten year anniversary of our very first date.

We had been tossing around the idea of getting married on our ten year anniversary for quite some time but didn't finally decide to really do it until just a few days beforehand. So no, you didn't miss your invitation. We barely managed to pull it off as it was and only got our rings and marriage license with a few hours to spare. 

More details and photos to come...

No pool wedding would be complete without the bride falling in...

 

In case you didn't know Stone Sour is quickly becoming one of my favorite bands and I've been waiting all summer for their new album to drop. It's still not out yet but their first single (Say You'll Haunt Me) just hit the radio and interwebs. Rooooooock!!! \m/

At a small terminal in the Texas Panhandle, three strangers are awaiting their shuttle flight. One is a Native American passing through from Oklahoma. Another, a local ranch hand on his way to Ft. Worth for a stock show. The third passenger is an Arab student, newly arrived from the Middle East.

To pass the time, they strike up a conversation on recent events, and the discussion drifts to their diverse cultures. Soon the Westerners learn that the Arab is a devout Muslim. The conversation falls into an uneasy lull.

The cowpoke leans back in his chair, crosses his boots on a magazine table, tips his big sweat-stained hat forward over his face while the wind outside blows tumbleweeds and the old windsock flaps.

Finally, the Native American clears his throat and softly, he speaks: "Once my people were many, now we are few."

The Muslim raises an eyebrow and leans forward, "Once my people were few," he sneers, "and now we are many. Why do you suppose that is?"

The Texan shifts the toothpick to one side of his mouth and from the darkness beneath his Stetson says, "That's 'cause we ain't played Cowboys and Muslims yet."
