Its always the quiet ones...

So let me say how much I love stumble.  If you dont know, then obviously you have never wasted 8 hours doing nothing but clicking a button, and Im not talking about the buttons linking to adult orientated web sites, wink wink.  Anywho, stumble gave me a random fact generator.  How factual these items are, I am not sure.  But hey I learned this "Chimpanzees are excellent tool makers and have been documented to make very primitive spears to kill bushbabies hiding in the trees during the night."  I am not sure  what a bushbaby is, but I am not messing around with a chimpanzee any time soon.

Gripe time:  Network TV sucks.  Well most of it sucks.  NBC what have you done for me lately?  The cape?  and now this load of  crap?  Im not against Wonder Woman.  Hell, I am a nerd and love for more nerdyness to come to the forefront of America's viewing habits.  However, NBC has not had a good track record of remakes of tv shows, especially the ones catering to a niche audience of Nerds: Bionic Woman and Knight Rider.  Speaking of craptacular remakes: CBS wants to remake The Wild Wild West, now the link is old, by a few months, but who knows CBS may do it.  Who needs new programming?  NBC?  Nope they are redoing, or supposedly redoing The Munsters.  No new programming at all?

So someone is upset that a movie, again a fictional representation of a historical figure, portrayed someone wrong?  Oh the movie? The Kings Speech. Yea evidently people are upset that the kind ol king didnt stammer as much as he did in the movie, well its a good thing no one on the internet is claiming King George was Hitler's Brother.  Oh for crying out loud.  Seriously internet? 

Today's edition of  the government is out to get us.  So they released a new dietary guidelines today.  In it they tell Americans to eat less crappy foods, Salt, sugars, etc, and drink water.  Well some people on a certain side of the aisle say they didnt go far enough.  They are upset because it says "eat less."  Now I am sure someone will get upset that it went too far.  You know what?  Americans are fat.  Not PHAT.  Maybe in the next dietary guidelines it should say this "Eat whatever the hell you want, but hey you'll die."  But on a serious note if the supple and demand for Hostess cupcakes falls, that means the price goes down too right?

So the BBC is reporting the world's oldest woman has just died.  Of course the official records say she was 114, but she claimed 115.  Who cares.  Look I want to live to be a damn Immortal, like Connor McCloud.  But if I look like that lady, someone put me down.  Like a race horse.  But she does say she lived so long because Jesus Loves Her.

Can an Animal predict the weather? No.  The answer to this question is no.  An animal who comes out of a hole and looks at his shaddow can not, and never will predict the weather....


I am still waiting for the dreaded Ice Storm to hit
