Why be a Vegeterian?

October 31, 2008 By: DaveStuff Category: General No Comments →

I wrote some ramblings years ago about having a “Bambi Burger Bash” in my backyard. We could have one Bambi hanging in a tree and another on the grill… We could also have a bucket of KFC along with some other snacks and appetizers. Later, we could have some home made ice cream. Milk - it does a body good.

But what about my vegetarian friends that I invited to my burger bash?
Hmmm? I could call one up before hand for a consultation to see what is and what is not acceptable for their palette. They all seem to have different rules.

For some the chicken would be OK. But not others. And then most wouldn’t eat the Bambi burger but some might as it isn’t actually “red” meat is it? Some may go ahead and tear up the homemade ice cream but then it is made out of an animal
 bi product.  It’s all so confusing

And I don’t know any vegetarians in my circle who don’t wear leather.
Leather just works well for clothing and many other things. What can you do about that? Perhaps point out the fact that the jacket your wearing was made from a killed animal.

Vegetarianism is something I have puzzled over for years.
But then in a few more years my vegetarian friends will have the last laugh. I’ll be sick from big mac’s and they will still be living like they were in their 20’s.

I’ll be (sick) hanging out in bed on Oxycontin watching TV and they will be at the gym exercising their old but healthy bodies. More power to ya Veggies. Shine On!

Does Size Really Matter?

October 29, 2008 By: DaveStuff Category: Sex No Comments →

Oh how many times have you wondered that question? Does size really matter. I guess it depends on who you ask and the way you ask. I’m sure it has a little to do with sexual insecurity issues too. I dunno.

Of course you know that I’m talking about search engine optimization right? Something I have fought with for years. SEO. It’s a very mysterious thing. Like sex is huh?

Does the size of your pizza pie matter? Or the size of a milkshake? You know that at an all you can eat buffet the 3rd trip is always the best. Or the 3rd hamburger at a backyard BBQ.

I read in a men’s magazine recently that size DOES matter. But since I hadn’t really heard of that magazine leads me to the conclusion that their subscription numbers are rather small…hmmm?

Does size really matter… Is that a trick question?
Maybe Size really does matter! In more ways than one!

Single Life - Internet Dating

October 27, 2008 By: DaveStuff Category: Culure, Internet Relationships No Comments →

 You know I used to be a bible teacher… That would be Sunday School at a local Baptist church… I was a singles teacher which is often the hardest teaching position in a church to fill…People don’t want to mess with singles and their problems. Do YOU? But how many problems do singles actually have?

It’s funny… Many people that are married or together with somebody will envy their single friends…And then single people want to be with somebody… It just goes round and round.

Where does one go to get “hooked up”? With the success of MySpace and other networking sites it appears more and more are going with the internet to pick up dates. (Been there done that myself) For better or worse…  :O

It’s easy to pass hours at a time talking to prospects on the other end of a computer… As un tangable as that might be… People talk about “falling in love” over the internet without ever meeting the person face to face… Very strange.

But hey! It’s all good… You can have that guy that looks like your dad on TV over at EHarmony sign you up with a credit card to meet thousands of people that are looking for love. And their “system” matches you up perfectly with a mate…What could be better?

The Sheild / Son’s of Anarchy

October 26, 2008 By: DaveStuff Category: Culure No Comments →

Watching TV on the net is easy these days… Check out the trailer for the 2 shows I am (regrettably) addicted to:

FX pushes TV to the limit… Sometimes it’s good…sometimes weak… But it is always going to the edge…. But I just keep watching the Shield season after season… I like, really know those guys now.

Obama - The Evil Taxman?

October 24, 2008 By: DaveStuff Category: Politics No Comments →

Every time I pick up a newspaper or watch a little TV I hear that Obama’a gonna raise taxes… He’s going to raise:

  • Income Tax
  • Property Tax
  • Sales Tax
  • Tobacco Tax
  • Drug Tax
  • Alcohol Tax
  • Business Tax
  • Plumbing Tax
  • Did I leave anybody out?

It’s like he is going to tax us to death… With him running things my life is going to be so taxed I won’t have enough for may weekly McDonald’s…And he is gonna tax THEM too… They will have to do away with the dollar menu… OH MY GOD! The HUMANITY

Joe the Plumper may as well go to welding school because there is no way he will EVER afford to have his own pluming shop… He’s going to get taxed to death…

Tax tax tax TAX! There’s one for you nineteen for me! TAXMAN OBAMA!

It’s like reverse psychology… They keep saying that the democrats are going to tax the hell out of us poor working people…Er, we (poor folks ) all know that’s the republicans job… Isn’t that what the “trickle down” stuff of Reagan was all about?

I bet if I pick up a Tulsa World tomorrow it will say the same thing. Or somebody might say that we will cease to be America

Is BigFoot Real?

October 21, 2008 By: DaveStuff Category: Culure No Comments →

I remember back in the day playing in bar bands…We used to play in a little town in Oklahoma - Disney… There’s not a whole lot there… A store, couple of bars, a church camp and Bigfoot.

I went over to a little party after the gig where the folks that lived up there claimed they see Bigfoot on a regular basis… We were discussing this over a joint and some beers. Now does that tell you something about the conversation?

I didn’t believe those guys but they had some serious convictions going on… He lived out there.. I kind of laughed it off.. But is Bigfoot real? There’s always  news about him and other monsters and UFO’s and such… Stuff that’s fun to think about. And he’s running for president ya know?
