Who am I, Alex Trebek?

I’m feeling much better.  I know that I posted a quiz yesterday, but here’s another one…. Is this picture: a)  A $100 hooker being arrested on the Sunset Strip? b)  A $50 hooker being arrested on the Sunset Strip? c)  A $5 hooker being arrested on the Sunset Strip? d)  A stripper fresh-off-the-pole being arrested [...]

A very scientific comparison of beers

Since BusyDad was kind enough to gorge himself at a Barbeque and gain a pound in my honor last week (and because Brad is working late and I am putting off scrubbing my stove) I decided to conduct a little experiment. You know how I have a deep love of Yeungling Lager?  Well, that’s how BusyDad feels [...]

Take your organic bread and shove it up your ass

Happy Earth Day! Remember when we were young and Earth Day was just something for the weirdos and we all wished that Ed Begley Jr. would shut the hell up about his electric car?  Water was something that was going to last forever and the Amazon was just a bunch of jungle that we didn’t [...]

They’re like the Viet Cong – Varmint Cong!

(if you don’t know what movie that came from, stop reading, Google it, watch the movie and then come back.  thank you) We have some crafty little fuckers in our house, and not just my kids. Last week I grabbed a bowl out of my “serving dish pantry” (yes – you read that right….not to be [...]

Throw a fit and get a day to yourself!

For all the times that I have bitched about my husband, sometimes I wonder why the hell he still puts up with me.  Then again, after almost 18 years together, there are certain things that he just still doesn’t get… Number One?  He is not supposed to clean this house.  He can pick up toys, he [...]

Help me pick my new camera!

No – this will not be the only post today…I know that I’ve been boring lately, but I’m not THAT boring. My birthday is next week and last night Brad confirmed that he will be getting me a new camera, knowing full well that I am only interested in a digital SLR.  As a side [...]

They forgot “Beautiful and Sexy”!

This is why people should always check out the blogs of their commenters!  When I checked out Valarie’s page this morning, I found this: What Mindi Means You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated. You master any and all skills easily. You don’t have to work hard for what you [...]

Because I’m a member of Blog 365….

…..and because I have to leave for my sister’s house in Baltimore in about 20 minutes and I simply can’t fall off the Blog365 wagon… ….here’s a really stupid post to say “I’ll be back tomorrow” and to make sure that I still got a post in today! Or, I’ll get really drunk tonight and [...]

Not quite as fun as joining the Mile High Club, but….

…..today I joined another club.  I started this thing in November, and really started posting (and getting more than 5 hits per day) just before Christmas.  Today I hit 10,000 page views. Ten thousand in threee months.  Is that good?  Pathetic?  Average?  I don’t know (and I don’t think I want to know, especially if [...]

The Etiquette of Family

So here’s a question for you….. I am in the middle of an “argument” on an etiquette board that I frequent.  While I do tend to get my back up when people are rude, I also believe that there are times and places where insisting on sticking to the “Emily Post way” can be ruder [...]
