we're spawning! popping out evil blogs in all directions!
i've been testing out some alternative blog sites and i've settled on 2 i like...
first there's this site:
tpwts.eblogus.com
this is where i will be posting regularly for now. it has a format that i'm ok with but i miss a lot of the blooger.com features that i've come to take for granted. it'll do... for now...
and then there's this site:
theplacewiththestuff.webnode.com
there is SO MUCH to do with this platform! excellent procrasination tool. but as of yet, i have almost no idea what i'm doing. but practice makes perfect so i'm going to keep fooling around with it until i get the hang of a good portion of the features. if it worksout, this would be an excellent platform!
as the transition is taking place (sniff, sob!) i'l probably be making a few random posts here from time to time so check in if you can be bothered.
cheers!

it's the most wonderful time of the year
you know what i love, absolutely love about winter?
you don't?
well allow me to share!
i love how the property management crew at my office don't start work until 9AM... when everyone has already beaten a path through the snow on the sidewalks.
i love how people seem to have forgotten that we had winter last year, and the year before that too! and now they have to learn to drive in the snow all over again.
i love how stylish my pants looked with salt-caked cuffs.
i love static flyaways in my hair that make me look disheveled and possibly homeless at times.
i love waking up a half hour earlier to shovel the driveway and clear off the car... more factually, MY DAD loves waking up a half hour earlier to shovel the driveway and clear off the car.
i love that it's dark when i leave the house in the morning and dark when i leave the office - sunshine is overrated. i also love the ghostly colour of my skin.
i love halucinating people taking their penguins on snowy morning walks. (it was actually a collie.)
and the list goes on...

OLG's 'oh shit!' moment
as in "oh shit! we weren't supposed to print any winning tickets for distribution! those tickets get printed to make the averages true but those are supposed to go straight to the shredder! those fools are supposed to keep playing with the hopes of one day getting lucky but little do they know that it just all a big scam! someone dropped the ball here and instead of paying this sucker we're going make like it was an accident. do you even know how broke as a joke we'd be if there were as many winning tickets out there as we advertise???"an african love story
aww... so cute!
"Girl, 7 and boy, 6, try to elope to Africa"
German children nabbed - with witness, 5 - at train station
BERLIN–Two young German sweethearts trying to elope to Africa were thwarted by police at the train station in Hanover.
The couple, 7-year-old Anna-Lena and 6-year-old Mika, had planned their getaway with Anna-Lena's 5-year-old sister Anna-Bell while their parents slept off New Year's Eve celebrations.
With suitcases packed with sunglasses, swimsuits, summer clothes, stuffed toys and some food, the trio took a streetcar to the central station to board a train to the airport. A guard, concerned to see the three young children waiting on their own, called police.
"What struck us was that the little ones were completely on their own and that they had lots of swimming gear with them," said Holger Jureczko, a police spokesperson.
He described Mika and Anna-Lena as "sweethearts" who had "decided to get married in Africa where it is warm." The boy had once been to Italy and convinced the girl that Africa would be even warmer.
Anna-Lena told the German television station RTL: "We wanted to get married and so we just thought: 'Let's go there.' "
Asked why they failed to let their parents know, the children said they thought they would not be gone for long.
Anna-Lena's mother, who was not identified, said she had known nothing of the plan. "I'm still in a state of shock. I thought, 'I'm playing a part in a bad movie.' "
The police told the trio it would be difficult to get to Africa without money or tickets and instead gave them a tour of the police station before handing them over to their parents.

the program i was using just crashed... and apparently i hadn't saved all morning. fantastic.
and of couse i'm on a time budget. 45 drawings plotted, signed, and scanned by the end of the day? no problem! no problem if you live on venus and the day is 5832 hours long. and where the work day starts at 11 and not 3 hours ago. excuse me while i go find a pencil to put in my eye.
(PS - did you know that on venus, a day is longer than a year? venus takes 243 earth days to rotate on its axis and only 224.7 earth days to go around the sun! at least i learned something interesting out of all this!)

adventures in the deep south
and by 'deep south' i mean anywhere south of the canadian border.did you hear? a guy got shot for accidentally stepping on someone's toe... dude was so mad about his toe being a little ouch-y that he got a gun from the closet and shot the son of a bitch!
oh yeah... important detail i forgot to mention: the shooter? a 4-year-old. he shot his babysitter. fan-freaking-tastic. if i were still in the babysitting game, i'd be thinking about raising my rates about now.

and extreme case of TMI
that is, too much information...
but it doesn't matter. i'm telling you anyway.
i have a pimple on my chin that has burrowed its way through straight through to my mouth and created a canker. it's one of those painful zits that's under the surface! it's like it was too much work to come to the surface so it went the other way! at least that's what it feels like...
are you sufficiently grossed out?

shed a tear...
over the holidays, the internet network administrators have been busy little elves... i've already discovered that they've newly blocked GoFugYourself.com AND thestar.com's crossword! who knows what else they've denied me?!? i'm not looking forward to finding out. so not impressed.

the second sign of the squid-pocalypse
a certain form of jellyfish has evoluationed (totally a real word) a way to NOT DIE! immortal jellyfish! and don't think that those jellies won't share this valuable information with their good friends the squids! oh just you wait... the end of days is coming and, my friend, you better believe it'll be squid-y.
oh, in case you missed the first sign of the squid-pocalypse, it was that they found squids that were growing elbows! ELBOWS! to crawl out of the sea and attack you while you sleep!!!

a severe case of agism
this right here is the perfect deterant for getting old... like ever.
here's jay mohr & wifey nikki cox at some event:
when i get old(er) i'm just simply going to stop being photographed. it'll be my rule. i'll tell people the image of my face will burn their cameras from the inside out, like acid. AND if there's no photographic evidence of me getting old, it won't actually happen... kinda like a dorian gray type of deal.
