Hummmm...
Retirement Planning:
If you had purchased $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it
would
Now be worth $49.00.
With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original
$1,000.00.
With World Com, you would have had less than $5.00 left.
With Lucent, you would have $3.50 left of the original $1000.00
But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of beer one year ago,
drank
all the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling
REFUND you
would have had $214.00.
Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink
Heavily and recycle.
It's called the 401-Keg Plan. We all what the real best long term investment is Comic Books. |

Don't know about you guys, but today is a screw off day for me. Nothing but vegging in front of the tv. I don't care if the house burns down around me, I'm cooking, doing dishes & laundry & just rotting my brain. It definately helps that 4 of my favorite shows are on & 2 of them are having marathons.

I have the same ability to draw. Back in High School I drew my own version of the Fantas-Stick Four. I may put that up on myspace as a goof. Also, my wife is going to be working on some Shi sketches and she can actually draw. |

I heard something funny today while driving.
It was called THE REVENANT (ghost) by Billy CollinsI am the dog you put to sleep,
as you like to call the needle of oblivion,
come back to tell you this simple thing:
I never liked you--not one bit.
When I licked your face,
I thought of biting off your nose.
When I watched you toweling yourself dry,
I wanted to leap and unman you with a snap.
I resented the way you moved,
your lack of animal grace,
the way you would sit in a chair and eat,
a napkin on your lap, knife in your hand.
I would have run away,
but I was too weak, a trick you taught me
while I was learning to sit and heel,
and--greatest of insults--shake hands without a hand.
I admit the sight of the leash
would excite me
but only because it meant I was about
to smell things you had never touched.
You do not want to believe this,
but I have no reason to lie.
I hated the car, the rubber toys,
disliked your friends and, worse, your relatives.
The jingling of my tags drove me mad.
You always scratched me in the wrong place.
All I ever wanted from you
was food and fresh water in my metal bowls.
While you slept, I watched you breathe
as the moon rose in the sky.
It took all my strength
not to raise my head and howl.
Now I am free of the collar,
the yellow raincoat, monogrammed sweater,
the absurdity of your lawn,
and that is all you need to know about this place
except what you already supposed
and are glad it did not happen sooner--
that everyone here can read and write,
the dogs in poetry, the cats and the others in prose.If you want to hear it read, go here http://www.publicradio.org/tools/media/player/phc/2005/12/31_phc?start=00:01:27:00.0&end=00:01:59:00.0
& pull the needle to 2:00 in the audio.

I can't believe you haven't heard A$$H@LE
That was the song that endeared Dennis to my heart as a cool comedian... except the blowing the nose on the flag part (unless he meant he's so patriotic that he has a Flag hanky - never was quite sure about that part).

Some people call it satire, others sarcasm, others humor.
It started as a Saturday night live gag. People requested it so much that he started doing it in his live concerts, then the next step was a video. |

That's certainly a good sleep. I don't sleep that well.
Forgot to charge my phone last night & it died before the alarm could go off this morning. I woke up just shy of 9:30am
