Brakes...

So, later today or tomorrow I will be replacing the front brakes and rotors on a 2000 Saturn SL2. Wish me luck!

You don't say?

I may be a bit of a geek, but I found this interesting...

I guess Obama's 'Death Panels' are different somehow..

Sounds about right..

Arlen Specter squeeled on the teevee today, “Mitt Romney has changed positions more often than a pornographic movie queen?” via Wonkette. I didn't write the squeeled part, they did. Although that's probably accurate too.

Just checking android blogging app. :-)

I for one don't...

particularly welcome our new robotic overlords...

Nope, no racism here...

Some of the people we happen to be dealing with... responses to The Hunger Games. I just don't get it. Via Jezebel. Seriously, WTF?

Not quite grasping the concept.... take 4,329.

It didn’t take long for security guards at the Glenbow Museum to notice it.

Yelling at clouds! Where's my onion?

It seems that when I was young, back in the days before Rock And Roll, I shoveled a LOT. The last ten or twenty winters I didn't even think were worth sledding in. I remember walking to Hospital Hill with snow above my boots every freaking day. Snow or cold on Halloween, March coming in like a lamb meant no snow storms. How can ANYONE in my age group, living in the Mid-West like I do refute global warming? Seriously???
Because they are fucking psychos, that's why.

How can anyone (especially those claiming to be Christian) follow, and more importantly vote for, these people?

Happy Dance!

An interesting viewpoint...

One of the Florida Representatives who wrote the "Stand Your Ground' law, in fact the prime sponsor, doesn't seem to think it applies to someone who actively pursues someone against police advice then shoots them in 'self-defense'... in fact he believes the only person involved in this altercation who would have been covered by this act was Trayvon Martin. Not really much of a surprise, to me at least.

First and last time I'm guessing...
