Sweet Jimmy Dean sausages, it's snowing. Snow and cold, and my new sod. I hope it survives. Kind of bums me out, watching the snow fall on my sod. I have high hopes for picnics and campouts on that sod - it is wonderfully comfortable to lay on, and smells great!
Thoughts about some things I don't like...
1) Hooters: The restaraunt. I hate this incredibly thin attempt to sell me bad wings by attempted manipulation of my libido. It's embarrassing being a male when you're dragged into the place by friends who like the experience.
2) Strip clubs: See above. I like naked women as much as the next guy, but I don't like them trying to earn dollars by copping a squat in front of some brainless schmuck who could be denying his children groceries so he can take a peak at some bimbo's boobs.
3) The Designated Hitter: Come on already. Baseball players are supposed to hit the ball and then run around the bases. They get paid millions for it, so all of them should get off their asses and earn it.
4) Dentists: Okay, I don't really dislike dentists, but I do dislike having to go to see one. Why can't teeth be made of something impervious to harm like rhino horn material or granite or something like that?
5) People Who Don't Recognize A Deal: Everybody likes a bargain, but it amazes me everyday when I meet people who do not recognize one. If I am selling the single lowest priced 4x4 truck on Autotrader within 300 miles, what in the name of Sam Hill makes you think you can come over to look at it with a flat-out mean attitude expecting me to lower the price by a grand? Did you not hear me when I said the price was set? Did you not read the words in the ad that explicitly stated the price was firm? Why waste my time ? Don't tell me you never pay full price - you paid $60.00 to fill up your Explorer, just like anyone else with one.
6) Sports Injustices: Steve Garvey should be in the Hall Of Fame. For a decade he was the best at what he did. The very best, without steroids or supplements, just hard work, dedication, and love of the game.
7) Overzealous Clerks: Is it possible to just look around? I'm in sales, I understand that there are sales managers who think harrassing a customer gets the deal done, but I'll bet dollars to donuts that they would run away from just such a salesclerk. C'mon, leave me alone! I'll ask for help if I need it, promise!
8) The Intolerant Liberal and the intolerant Conservative: Preaching tolerance and understanding while labeling anyone who doesn't agree with their viewpoint as racist, fascist, stupid, or fill-in-the-blank-phobic. Just because they swallow every bit of misinformation and propaganda the popular press shovels down their throats does not make them knowledgable or informed.
9) Conspiracy Nuts: Please, please leave me alone. I don't care to hear theories about how the Republican Party staged 9/11, how the Democrats are manipulating the media, who really killed Kennedy, or how the Jews control the money supply. Really.

10) The R.V.: What possessed me to go in on this deal? I must have been out in the sun for a particularly long time when this offer was put on my plate. I would rather get rid of this beast than lose twenty pounds!
I suppose I better get off my butt and get productive. Saturday morning is almost gone and I haven't accomplished a thing. Where's my to do list?
