In other news, I think 'beastin'' is a great term and hope it sticks.

It just started snowing out. It's helping my hangover a little bit.

I heard a commercial this morning on XM for a pill that makes your "ropes" stronger, shoot further and have a MUCH HIGHER QUANTITY . They go on to explain that in Europe male ejaculate is called ropes, and how you should take take this pill because it will impress your woman, and can help you to get her pregnant.

WTF?

My ropes are plenty strong enough thank you.

BSG jump-roping contest

I can supply the jump ropes

I also hold my High School's record for most jumps in 30 seconds (115)- still stands as of 5 years ago.

I've been known to pick a cat off a fence every now and then just for the sport of it

What has been going on in my microwave?

Took a bowl of soup out of the microwave, spashed some on the floor.
With microwave door still open, wiped up the floor and for the first time (apparently ever!) saw the interior roof of my microwave.
UGH! Totally splattered with lots of stuff--and based on the color and petrification--not the just heated up soup!

What else is lurking that I don't even know about?

That crud on top can be scraped off and turned into bacos.

For some reason I found this article about Barbaro to be hilarious. Well, the first paragraph.

Nearing the one-year anniversary of Barbaro’s death, Gretchen Jackson said she and her husband, Roy, are close to announcing where the ashes of the winner of the 2006 Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (gr. I) will be buried.

Yum! Ashes!

Ha. The Triple Crown presented by Visa had a much better ring to it than anything to do with Yum Brands (KFC/Taco Bell and a few others) considering how many horses are raised and slaughtered in the USA for human consumption in other countries.

A friend of mine hosts a radio show called "The Friendly Show". It's basically a small town radio version of craig's list, and she blogs about it from time to time. Here's an entry

It’s been a while.............

Since I shared any crazy friendly show stories with y'all. I don't have anyone who has asked me about rocket ships lately, but it seems like my listeners have come more macabre over the last couple of months, which makes for fantastic radio.

When it first started to cool down, we had an older lady who called with hogs for sale. She told us about how big and edible the hogs were. Then she said "It's good killin' weather." Is it ever good killin' weather? Apparently so.

But one of my new favorites is the lady who has called with coon meat for sale. She called for several days, just saying she had coon meat. Apparently her coon meat wasn't selling like she thought it should, so she decided to be a little more descriptive. "This is good coon meat that we've got in our freezer here. It's all skinned out and stuff, but we left the foot on it to prove that it's a coon."
LEFT THE FOOT ON IT? Wow. I know. Go ahead. Be jealous.

There's a good chance this thread alone is hurting board performance.

Locking for efficiency's sake (someone can start another).
