F*#!ing groundhog. 6 more weeks of winter? More like 12 if you live in north freaking Idaho.

Breaking news?

Wow, hot topic today in the media: Michael Phelps was photographed smoking pot. And this is a surprise? Didn't everyone see the kind of food the dude ate while training? Yeah, I know he burns a LOT of calories training, but come on. His next sponsorship gig? Doritos.

This is too easy....

This appeared in the Sandpoint Reader this week:



In case you have trouble reading this, it says "You can't wipe your ass with a tourist" and it is a photo of a pile of logs. (ironic since I always say "boy I really rolled some logs" when I take a big dump")


And just in case you are slightly baffled by the message, captain obvious says that this is a political statement to say that the logging industry is important in our community (which it is) and that the tourism industry doesn't contribute as much.


1 day left to change that vote.........and yes, this IS where I live.

Really???

Sometimes I don't even have to TRY to come up with material for my blog. It just naturally falls in my lap, or in this case appears in the Education section of my local paper:

Yes, this is where I live folks. You do still have 4 more days to change your vote......

Have a little pride, people!

This morning I made a quick trip to Walmart for supplies for a big event tomorrow night. I am pretty sure when I got there that cart wasn't sitting in front of my driver's side door and I am fairly certain that I didn't empty my ash tray out and dump about 25 cigarette butts onto the pavement.

The thing that most irks me about the cart is that I parked ONE PARKING spot away from the cart rack. So the asshole that left the cart next to my door was just too damn lazy to walk around his rust bucket vehicle to put it where it belongs.

And to the same asshole whole was too out of breath from smoking that he couldn't return his cart, thanks a lot for dumping your trash out so that I could step on your filth while moving the cart away from my door so I could get in my van. Guess he needed to make room for the next carton of cigarettes he just purchased to chain smoke in his car.

Seriously, I implore us all to extend a little common courtesy, even if you're at Walmart. Put-yer-stinkin-cart away and by all means, if you find it necessary to empty your ash tray, use one of the garbage cans they have out there, don't just leave a mess for someone else to step on. Then again, why would I be surprised that someone shopping at Walmart would do such a thing anyway?
