Was the guy a dead-ringer for what Chet got turned into in the movie "Weird Science"? If so, it might be the same guy that I sat near at Comerica Park. Whatever you do, don't reference a movie that has been released in the past quarter-century..... After googling it.... no. I'm guessing that we are both describing the average american redneck. |

Quick rant...
The other day I'm contacted by somebody saying she's with a marketing firm out of San Fran. She's working on a big ad campaign with Adidas and there are two photos of mine she'd like to use as part of the campaign. They'd be used on a Facebook page that is a big part of said ad campaign. I respond, asking for details-- what compensation is being offered, do I get a photo credit, what about my watermark, etc. The answer I get-- NO COMPENSATION, NO PHOTO CREDIT, NO WATERMARK.
She actually thinks I'm going to just give them these photos to use as part of a multi-million dollar ad campaign for a multi-million dollar for-profit company. She was told to get lost.

So, I posted my car for sale on Craigslist. Less than 15 minutes after posting, I get an e-mail. I'm thinking that I have an offer or question already. Awesome! I open the e-mail, and the only message in it is...
DoubleQueen Bed Frame
Yep, that's it.
I'm thinking since I have the guy's e-mail address, I want to sign him up for a bunch of junk mail. Anyoe know of any sites (not porn, since I am at work, unless you would like to do it yourself...) that will send you tons of junk mail if you enter an address?

Yeah, Craigslist!
Same thing happens to me every time I post something for sale. That's why I use my spam-catcher Yahoo address for that.
I doubt you have the guy's real e-mail address, or that there is even a "guy." It's probably spoofed by a spambot.

addlemanwe@hotmail.com
Usually don't those address have a bunch of numbers, or random letters in them?

Today I got robocalled from a posting I have on craigslist. I have a motorcycle battery for sale, posted in the Motorcycles section because there isn't a separate section for parts. I neglected to obscure my phone number and got called by a recording offering to help me sell my vehicle.  |

What do you get when you take a hot dog, stuff it with cheese, wrap it in bacon, deep fry it in beer batter, put it on a huge bun, and cover it in chili and cheese? THE WAR DOG!  I dominated this.   |

I almost never remember my dreams. Most nights, it's like I blissfully cease to exist for 7 hours. But, on the rare occasion that I do remember a dream, I realize that my subconcious is a very odd place. Last night, I was at a Stevie Ray Vaughan concert. It was an outdoor concert in a festival type setting. I was euporic that I was able to see this legend perform; fully aware that he was dead, but not finding it particluarly absurd in any way. Just an unusual treat, no different than if he had simply come out of retirement. Thing is--even though Stevie tore it up... he got booed off the stage!  |

I had a dream just like that once except it was Nazareth rather than SRV. Oh and they didn't get booed off the stage!
Cue the dead horse "old" jokes

Cue the dead horse "old" jokes..and all of the key members of Nazareth are still alive. So...HOW was this dream like mine, again? Time to ramp it up: This is Biff: "Oh, I had a dream that was EXACTLY LIKE THAT! I was waterskiing behind the FUCKTARDic and then Shemp Howard hit me in the face with a PIE!" Can I get a "Yes, And?"  |

New season of softball started this evening. We play at a complex of four fields and there are two levels of parking. The lower level is real close to the fields, but your car is always at a slight risk of being hit by an errant foul ball. That's not an issue in the upper level, but you're quite a distance from the fields. I usually park in the lower level, parking as far back as possible, and behind a big trash dumpster whenever possible.
During the second inning of our game I'm playing the outfield, suddenly from the parking lot there's a loud SMACK! Immediately there are shouts from the nearby field, "Oh no! The Fusion!!" Shit. There are only three Fusions in the lot, and mine is right by where that sound came from. Sure enough, when I went to leave I find a nice dent on the rear panel, up by the trunk. Sure glad it wasn't a window, though!

Nah, she understood it was an accident. That's why we pay for insurance.
I've parked in that lower lot for two years without incident, and it's not like somebody winds up with a dent/broken window each week.

I just visited one of our branches in Saginaw. They sure sound like Canadians.
So there were 4 of us who traveled there and we made a stop in Lansing as well. 6 hours in a vehicle. Number of minutes the radio was on? zero.
