What ever did the Pilgrim do for the natives? Indeed. Everyone should be thankful for that fateful day in 1620 when English Separatists (Pilgrims) landed in Massachusetts sparking what would become America — all of us — every color, belief system, wimmins, chillens, and men. Everyone around the world should stop today and be [...] On this day in 2008 some ones and zeros were uploaded to a vacant outpost on the world wide web and thus, rather inauspiciously, www.threedonia.com was born! As with most offspring, threedonia has developed quite differently than Floyd, Chuck and I foresaw, gazing through the celebratory cigar smoke on that storied day. We began [...] On behalf of Rufus, Eric, John FN, Wankette, Rich, Mike Kriskey, Outlaw, Charles Kane, and yours truly we wish you all a blessed Thanksgiving and we humbly thank you all for making us a regular part of your reading day. Share on Facebook Photo by Martin Walls via stock.xchng From James Lileks’ The Bleat today: When I was a kid “taking down the Halloween decorations” meant removing the jointed cardboard Ben Franklin skeleton from the window; now it’s like striking the set of an Andrew Lloyd Webber play.” We had one of those skeletons when I was [...] Photo by Seemann via morgueFile.com I was making some flavored gelatin desert this morning (store brand, hence I will not use the more obvious name) and I noticed something on the directions (I’m a thorough directons reader) that creeped me out. It had directions for adding fruit OR VEGTABLES to the gelatin. Someone thinks adding, say, green beans, to [...] I will pass on this new soft drink sensation. Or are they really talking about rebranding Old Milwaukee? That I’ve drunk. Share on Facebook Another way of looking at what the president said in his address to Congress. By Wordle Share on Facebook Continuing in my crabby old man vein, man that took a long time to get to the music. Talk about tedious. That cartoon was awful. “Can you imagine if George Bush appointed a tax cheat whose father had funded a charitable foundation his mother, Barbara, worked on?” Well I can’t imagine anyone caring. What [...] Fifty years ago today, it is said the music died. But not really. Heck the music rolls on. I remember back when I was a kid, the late 50s didn’t really seem so far away. Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper went down in that famous small plane crash in 1959. That was [...] “… Mixing medieval weaponry and slices of golden brown wheat.” With the right aim, this could really improve the efficiency of my morning. No more moving toast to the table. “Hey, catch this kids!” Share on Facebook Blago says he considered Oprah for Obama’s Senate seat. Mr. Ellis, add that to the list of offenses. That actually might be worse than trying to sell it. Photo by Alan Light via Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 license Share on [...] By the Lunar calendar, it’s now the year of the Ox. Obama is an Ox baby. But then again, so is George Clooney. What about BlagOOOOOOOOOOOOO? Seems like he should be huh? Photo by Kenn W. Kiser via morgueFile Share on [...] What was once considered influential ultimately turns into a parody of itself. No Hollywood genre has suffered more of this than the war movie. Politics aside, modern war movies generally follow typical themes. “War is hell, you’re there for the guy next to you, why are we here in the first place?” A lot [...] Rich you nailed the ultimate significance of the Obama election when you wrote: “2008 was a victory of one set of ideas over another set of ideas, and the nation – as a whole – was mature enough to accept it.” But you must live in some kind of racial Utopia to not understand [...] After seeing the photos with this post, I wants poached eggs on toast. Now! This post now actually includes a link to said article, thanks to Kath. Share on Facebook There’s no sure way to get over a hangover says no less an authority than Nichole Vargas, a junior at UNLV. “Cure? I don’t think there’s a cure for hangovers.” But there’s something that can ease the pain. Toast. “It’s good to raise a toast with a glass of champagne with a few close [...] Don’t get me wrong. Toast is significant. But some people can read a little too much into it sometimes. Peanut butter on toast. It’s food. Eat it. Share on Facebook Christopher Hirst really likes toast, based on this article he wrote. If only we all could have someone in our corner as steadfast in presenting our glories as Christopher is in presenting the upside of toast. I don’t even know what a lot of the food he is talking about is like, but it [...] |
