Sad days...
We've had some sad days lately. My bestest friend, Becky's, dad passed away. My oldest daughter dubbed him "Crazy Bill" when she was just a toddler. His bright smile, big heart, and quick wit will be missed. And then Becky's almost-father-in-law passed away after a dreadful fight with pain and demensia. Becky can't seem to catch a break lately, my poor sweetie. Send some soothing, relaxing, healing thoughts her way. (Aim just west of Wichita... LOL)
My hubby lost his job. He was driving over the road for a great group of people. They were keeping him busy, and getting him home when he wanted. Then the owner's wife decided to file for divorce, and in effect forced them to shut down. Sucks MAJOR! He's on unemployment now, and looking for local work. Send some good job finding vibes his way, 'k?
We need some laughs.... I'm gonna go see what I can stir up on the 'net. Bound to be something to giggle at, right?!?
I'll be back to post some happies.... we need happies....

Been a while... sorry!
Been a while since I posted anything - SORRY! Been getting ready for Jessica's 18TH birthday.... 18th..... birthday.... YIKES! I can't believe my ickle-babykins is an adult. I couldn't possibly be more proud of her - she's an amazing young lady who continues to brighten my every day.
Here's another Bush-ism I found today. Just makes ya so proud to have him as our commander-in-thief... I mean chief.
We look forward to analyzing and working with legislation that will make--it would hope--put a free press's mind at ease that you're not being denied information you shouldn't see.

Zero Punctuation
Jess turned me on to this fabulous dude. He's an English fella that goes by the name Yahtzee Croshaw. Each week, he puts out an animated review of a video game. He talks SOOOO fast, and swears SOOOO much, and makes me laugh SOOOO hard. This video is his review of the game Guitar Hero III. The line about the Mona Lisa made me spew. Luckily I wasn't too close to my monitor....

Employment Ads
What that 'job lingo' in the employment ads REALLY means...
"COMPETITIVE SALARY"
We remain competitive by paying less than our competitors.
"JOIN OUR FAST-PACED COMPANY"
We have no time to train you.
"CASUAL WORK ATMOSPHERE"
We don’t pay enough to expect that you’ll dress up.
"MUST BE DEADLINE-ORIENTED"
You’ll be six months behind schedule on your first day.
"SOME OVERTIME REQUIRED"
Some time each night and some time each weekend.
"DUTIES WILL VARY"
Anyone in the office can boss you around.
"MUST HAVE AN EYE FOR DETAIL"
We have no quality control.
"CAREER-MINDED"
Female Applicants must be childless (and remain that way).
"APPLY IN PERSON"
If you’re old, fat or ugly you’ll be told the position has been filled.
"NO PHONE CALLS PLEASE"
We’ve filled the job; our call for resumes is just a legal formality.
"SEEKING CANDIDATES WITH A WIDE VARIETY OF EXPERIENCE"
You’ll need it to replace three people who just left.
"PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS A MUST"
You’re walking into a company in perpetual chaos.
"REQUIRES TEAM LEADERSHIP SKILLS"
You’ll have the responsibilities of a manager, without the pay or respect.
"GOOD COMMUNICATION SKILLS"
Management communicates, you listen, figure out what they want and do it.

Chimp-o-matic
See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda.

There's a RSS feed site called Chimp-o-matic that spits out random "Bushisms Served Your Way." They make me laugh. They'd make me laugh harder if it weren't so embarrassing...
