Surfing

So normally this is the most boring job on the planet. But today is a national holiday (which we do not get to take) so everything is closed EXCEPT Tech. This means I won't get any mail, I can't go to the bank, I can't go to the post office, I really, truly don't have shite to do except - surf.

Starting with something pleasant (not a norm in my blogging history) - I'm looking for pictures for a Christmas gift and ran across this one from the photographers at my uncle's wedding last year. Check out this awesome photo of Stowe




What a beautiful sight this is.


Back to reality:




Now for sick and twisted and in need of electrocution:

A fuckup in Florida, kills his girlfriend, then sleeps with her, then takes her five cats to be put down. Whaaa? OK, it's bad enough he offs the lady, but to kill her cats so "they can be with her"? Please do not make me pay for this guy's life in prison with my tax money. A bullet costs a mere 30 cents.

Speaking of bullets, those two monsters that tortured that puppy in the projects next to my house last month are being arraigned today. According to the AJC,

"The brothers face an 11-count indictment on charges including aggravated cruelty to animals, burglary, criminal damage to property in the second degree, making terroristic threats and five misdemeanor counts of cruelty to children in the third degree.

The child cruelty charges stem from reports by neighborhood children that the teen enticed them to the center to see the dead puppy and threatened to kill them if they told anyone they knew."

Actually, forget the bullet. I say, tie them up with duct tape, douse them with paint and them roast them in an oven until they board the express train to hell. I hope when they get there, they find out Satan is canine.


Aljazeera reports that Syria is preparing to attack Israel. Lovely. And everyone is reporting that North Korea with that loon president, Kim Jong Il, has become the newest nuclear country. Lovely. South Korea and Japan are trying to figure out who will be the first to go up in smoke. And what will the US do about it? Well, we can certainly send in what's left of our military - geriatrics and retards. And how comforting to know we have that Nazi, John Bolton, representing us at the United Nations.

Reader's Digest says that 30% of all high schoolers do NOT graduate and 40% of all college freshmen need remedial classes because they aren't prepared to be in college. Just how stupid is this country? Nevermind, just reading the news answers that question.


I think I'll sign off with a happy thought: A very rare snow leopard



Thanks National Geographic.
