Just for you Dad!

Some people have been telling me that I have not posted anything new in a couple of days (actually it has been a week). To tell the truth I have been too busy at work and when I finally have some time to myself, there are too many things to take care of around the house. I have two websites for you today that should put a smile on your face.

In my job, I have to speak with engineers at least once a week. My co-worker is exasperated with engineers in general, and we are always making fun of them. Here is a site that is dedicated to the folly that is engineering as well as some other topics.


The second site that I will direct you to for your enjoyment is "What to do with hotel soap?" It seems to me that the this is another example of miscommunication (kind of ties in with the first site.....slick, I know. The question still remains, though. All of that soap....I am suggesting soaking the bars in water until they become soft, and then smashing them all together in one big block. Carve this block of soap into a likeness of the hotel manager and leave it on the reception desk when you leave in the morning.

That is all for today. Hope you enjoyed them.

Busy week and vacation

You just do not know how busy this week has been for me. My sons are getting antsy about summer vacation and are starting to cause trouble at school. Conferences with the teachers, principles, counselors, You name the profession, I have seen them this week. Because of all of this, I was looking forward to my own vacation from work. As luck would have it, my vacation is scheduled exactly one week after we change shifts. I get a six day break every three months due to a fluke in the scheduling. So I get off for six days, go back to work for three, and then I am off for another 11 days. To me, that seems like a waste of a good vacation. Alas, that it what I have to put up with. Because of all the school activities that I have had to attend this week, my posting has been erratic and short. Today, I hope to alleviate that problem.

The first site that I am going to introduce to you today is called "25 Inspirational Posters" located at Village of Joy. can’t say they motivate me to be more or less productive but they make me smile. And if you having one of those days glance at these posters and I guarantee they will make you smile too. Some posters might have “stronger” message then others but it’s not the picture to blame…


The second is a humorous story involving a young boy that was too smart for his own good. It is call "What starts with an F and ends with a K?" I was laughing at work for almost fifteen minutes after reading it. It remings of all the "Little Johnny" jokes that i have heard all of my life.

That it is for today. Happy hunting!

So Little Time

I am sorry to disappoint anyone, but my entry today will be very short. I am currently trying to do twenty-three things at once, just to have enough time to do the 58 I have to accomplish later.
Today I will give you a taste of one of my favorite american comedians Steven Wright.

New Ideas to Make Life Easier and Bottle Blading Mozart

As I was wondering around the internet this morning, I found a very interesting site called inewidea.com. Interesting products to make life easier for everyone is the focus of this site. From wall tile planters, to bicycle seats that double as a bike lock, products featured on this easy to navigate page are new and interesting solutions to age old problems.

The second site really is just a page with an extraordinary video on it. the page is entitled "Bottle Blading Mozart".A guy rollerblades through rows of partially filled bottles, hitting each bottle and reproducing Mozart's 40th symphony. Now I wonder how many Google searches I'll get for "Bottle Blade Mozart"?

That is it for today. Make sure to visit each and everyday for a new update (well...most everyday)
