Some days it's not worth chewing through the leather straps

I believe Phillip might have some unresolved anger issues...

Playing the big toy keyboard? Well check out these two girls playing Toccata and Fugue in D minor by Bach.

Posting will be sparse for awhile due to conditions beyond my control. Seems my employer is serious about deadlines, and getting work out. I don't remember signing anything like that when I got hired?

(cue deep bass music from Jaws) You only thought it was safe to come back to Sky-Dad's blog... Since I was all clean and nice with Skylers graduation posting and a memorial Day tribute, what better way to re-enter through the nasty atmosphere than an adult version of bad tat Tuesday. These are so bad, and contain adult parts, that I put them up on a separate blog. Just so you have to, you know, go clicky and can't complain when your eyes burn out of your head like the Nazi's in Raiders of the Lost Arc. But there is a series of Homer Simpson tat's that were sent to me by a fellow blogger, and fabulous prizes await who can guess the blogger's identity! Well fabulous is in the eye of the sender, so take your chance...

Memorial day is here. How did I know this? Was it the little note on the calendar, or because I got a day off? Was it the fact that my newspaper is 3 times the size it usually is because retailers feel the need to remind me I can save 10% on their products or get a mattress for low low prices? Or maybe it is all the cars on the highway heading to whatever campground space is left open. You can't really blame anybody for doing what most of us do with an extra day, try to have some fun, make the best of it. But even with a change in the commander in chief, and a glimmer of hope that the rest of the world might possibly not hate us quite so much, wars involving the U.S. military are ongoing half a world away. Every day Americans are still putting their lives on the line; and some of them are still giving their lives for our nation. No, lets rephrase that - not giving their lives, their lives are being taken from them. Sure, most everyone signs on that dotted line to serve, it i...

Things I have found that amused me, but really have no theme or could build a post around. Sooo, you get this weird collection of stuff so I can clean out a folder. Lucky you! Obviously the baby benefits! I am going to hand this out to some people I know. An easy mistake to make... Why do I have to wait until 11 to get my ass on a stick? How did this ad make it to print? Mom and Daughter would probably like Juan, the massage boy. Did you dentist keep your jeans the last checkup? OK, this shit is magic!! Those little carpet crawlers really can be a nuisance. Nothing says I love you like a funeral plan... Speak like Yoda you shall learn not annoyingly! No, I don't understand. I look just like this guy when I am checking out the discount panties.

I found this on Boards magazine online, it is a look at how a commercial was shot over the course of 5 days, and the amount of candles and manpower it took. This is fascinating to me!

"It's dangerous to do in the car, especially with the kids!" You probably shouldn't watch this at work, or anywhere else for that matter... "The Patch" It's just so HARD to quit! - watch more funny videos

When I get down about how bad the economy is, and how tough it is to make ends meet, I can find some small consolation that at least I don't have it as bad as this poor dude. The Worst Job Ever - Watch more Funny Videos

A short animated clip from Non Stamp Collector, that opens up the eyes a bit about the miracles that happened versus the things that really could have been done. Excellent stuff here, funny and to the point.

Updated: YouTube was being it's usual bitchy self and removed the music. So I uploaded the video. You can try again if you didn't get the music now. What a week it has been! All of Kathy's family (except the oldest sister and her husband) came in from the Seattle area to help celebrate the big event. Skyler's favorite cousin, Kirsten, came in early on Monday to hang out with him and enjoy some special time with him before the rest of the family hit town, and he loved that. We had a lot going on, and I wanted to get Kirsten up into the mountains. But time was short so I could only get up to a hiking area outside of Evergreen called Elk Meadow, but she had a good time anyway. We managed to get a quick trip up to Eldorado Canyon also. The rest of Kathy's family came into town later in the week, and while Kirsten stayed with us, they were at a local hotel. Everyone got together for breakfast one morning. And of course the required family photo after we had a dinn...

Sorry I have been missing in action, this week is just chock full of craziness getting the family around, and organizing for graduation and the party. I hope to be back to posting worthless crap and making snarky comments on all your blogs soon. Signed: The Management

Lawn mowed? Check Outside cleaned up? Check House cleaned up? Check Cleaned up Futon bed for Skylers cousin Kirsten and fixed up my office as her room? Check All the junk that usually lays around put away? Not so much... Organized for Skylers graduation Party? Not by a long shot! Wait a minute... What's that on the carpet over there. And there! And in every room!! Blood stains... My fucking god, our new dog Montana, who we were told hasn't gone into heat for years so was never fixed is going into heat and leaving little blood stains around. Perfect. With the whole damn family coming to town. (pounding my head on the wall...)

Joe singing I Get By With a Little help From my Friends at Woodstock, with some translations for those of you out there who still have the majority of your braincells left. This is simply wonderful, and I wish it had an embed feature. But go ahead and clicky over, it is well worth the risk of Carpal Tunnel... http://www.elwp.com/Joe%20Cocker.html

My wife, Kathy, is about the biggest fan of The Sound of Music you will find. She must have seen it a hundred times. One of her friends sent this link to her, it is pretty cool. The information with the YouTube clip says: More than 200 dancers were performing their version of "Do Re Mi", in the Central Station of Antwerp. with just 2 rehearsals they created this amazing stunt! Those 4 fantastic minutes started the 23 of march 2009, 08:00 AM. It is a promotion stunt for a Belgian television program, where they are looking for someone to play the leading role, in the musical of "The Sound of Music".

That's right bitches! It's my clown cake and I'm eating it all myself!!

I have two tags that I would like to take care of, first comes from Gwen over at Everything I Like Causes Cancer : "I want you to do me a favor. Tonight when you get home from work, or today while the kiddos are napping, go find your clothing/footwear/accessory equivalent of my pajama top and take a picture of the revered item. Post the picture on your own blog tomorrow and tell us the story behind it. You don't have to link back to this post because I don't get fussy about stuff like that but please do come back and leave a comment so we can find and enjoy your stories." Well my dear Gwen, since I am both a packrat and a fashion nightmare, this is going to take some doing! How about if I list a couple of things that have sentimental value? Navy Peacoat, wool, 1 each. From my 4 years in the USN, it hangs in my closet in hopes that I will take it out someday. It really is a great coat, lots of memories in that thing, I don't know why I never wear it. But I hang ...

I say fear not! I am comfortable knowing my future is in the hands of fine young men like these. Boom Headshot - Watch more Funny Videos

Today's collection of tat's is all about the quality. Such works of art simply do not belong on somebody's body, but instead, belong hanging on the wall of a fine museum. Lower your lap bar, tuck your personnel belongs in and be sure to keep your arms inside the ride. Here we goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Probably the best work of this "collection", just wait until this person get a belly and the death star becomes a death egg. Once again, always spell check! Is that somebody's initials, or the word "why"? What Jesus looked like after the facial reconstruction. Coffee lover? Or are there two pubes coming out of your cup? Uh huh, that's right, we bad! I don't even know who this is supposed to be... You stay classy dude. This just scares me!

Piston engine goes boing, boing, boing, boing. Mazda engine goes Hmmmmmmmm. I remember this when I was back in grade school maybe? Who knows, but it was funny at the time! How about Richard Dreyfus selling the AMC Javelin? Anybody remember "I've got a bowl of goldfish on the seat?"

Cleaning out the cobwebs around here, lot's of oddities I have found or were sent to me. I am too tired to think of a decent post, Skyler's viral stuff came bad with a vengeance over the weekend. A possible explanation for the increase in Nursing applications? I would be repulsed if I wasn't too busy laughing until I peed in my pants! So why on earth does the ad have pants down below the knees? Well good on you folks. Big seller in some parts of the south! WTF? I mean really, what is this?!? You never fail to amuse Paris...
