Meanwhile Somewhere On The Internet – Darth Vader Edition

9 Aug

Vader falls on hard times.

Vader As A Boy Being Told, "No more Chicken Nuggets for you!" Also Mom should have sprung for a PSP instead of the used Game Boy Color.

College Boy Vader getting into trouble again. I always thought he would be a boxer-brief kind of guy.

With today's gas prices, very smart Mr Vader. That thing gets like 70 miles to the gallon, 80 without all the armor.

Some Rock-n-Roll Trivia

8 Aug

Some little known, not true, facts in rock-n-roll history.

REM does not stand for Rapid Eye Movement, but rather Rapid Environment Movement because the band is so environmentally friendly, as demonstrated by the album Green.

The Rolling Stones first gig was at a Chuck-E-Cheese.

Maroon 5 was originally Maroon 17, but the record company made them drop 12 members because they were too expensive to pay.

Britany Spears’ first tour bus was actually a ’78 VW Bus.

Guns and Roses started a charity in Africa to help African children receive weekly heavy metal records from the 80’s.

Rap was originally called Wrap. This was because the rhymes were a product of parents who sung them while wrapping Christmas presents.

You know it’s true because it’s on the Internet.

My Simplistic Review Of The Movie: Cowboys & Aliens

7 Aug

There was some Cowboys.

There was some Aliens.

And there was some Indians. (North American type)

They fought each other for two hours.

Daniel Craig played a bad guy with a heart of gold.

Harrison Ford played a bad guy with a heart of gold.

****Spoiler Alert****

Trouble In A Bubble

5 Aug

Let me set this up: I’m driving home from my oldest daughter’s dance recital. I have the toddler (who is 4), and two of the toddler’s friends (who are 6 and 4 maybe) in the car as well. Normally I listen to a  talk radio station in Orlando, 104.1. (Those who know it, know it’s not your grandpa’s talk station of boring politics, boring sports, and/or boring community affairs. This one is actually entertaining, and the Buckethead show was on which I really like.) I thought I would be nice to the toddlers and run a Pandora station through the car I created called apples and bananas.

You know, songs good for toddlers.

So the first song that comes on was something about a monkey…monkey moo…or monkey mood…I don’t know but it had a good beat and the girls laughed every time the singer said monkey, which was about a gazillion times.

Good.

I am feeling successful and OK with the decision of sacrificing my show since the kids are enjoying it.

The next song that came on was ‘Sing A Song’. A classic, been around since my childhood. The girls didn’t enjoy it as much, but hey, it’s kind of slow and nappy, and doesn’t have the word monkey in it.

The next song to come on was ‘No Trouble In A Bubble’ or something like that, and it was done by The Mickey Mouse Playhouse. Cool. I actually work for the Mouse, so it’s good to support my boys you know. The song was upbeat and catchy, harmless, had Goofy in it which is always a home run for humor.

The toddlers however turned on me. My toddler said, “I can’t take this song anymore.”

Mind you this was not the worst song ever, no monkey in it grant you, but still not the worst song. Trust me, my oldest loved Barney the Dinosaur.

She said it again, “I can’t take this song anymore.” Then she got the other two to start chanting, “I can’t take this song anymore, I can’t take this song anymore, I can’t take this song anymore, I can’t take this song anymore!”

Now I’m in heavy traffic. Pandora is on my phone playing through the media jack on the car. The phone is sitting in the passenger’s seat in sleep mode. What I’m getting at is, the skip feature on Pandora is just not a feasible option at this time.

“I can’t take this song anymore, I can’t take this song anymore, I can’t take this song anymore!”

“Hey guys,” I shouted. “This is Mickey Mouse. This is a good song. Stop chanting please!”

One girl looked at me and asked, “What’s chanting?”

Another little girl looked at me and asked, “Do you have any Selena Gomez?”

And the last little girl looked at me and said, “I gotta potty.”

So I turned the Buckethead show back on.

My Personal Twitter Follow List

4 Aug

I am about to share my personal “Best Of” twitter list of people you must follow.

Warning #1: You must, must, must, must, apple, must, must, must, must have a sense of humor. That is must to the 8th power and a random word (apple) thrown in to see if you were paying attention.

Warning #2: The people on this list are not for the faint of heart. You can not be easily offended by jokes about such topics as:  brine shrimp, masturbation, whores, government policies, sex, drugs, fruit, transvestites, car dealerships, music, family vacations, the Food Network, pooping, peeing, pooping and peeing at the same time, farting, Oprah Winfrey or any other taboo subject.

Warning #3: You may become addicted. If your not on Twitter, or don’t understand Twitter, or think Twitter is something weird Uncle Frank does when he falls asleep on your couch, then you’re really missing out. Let me break it down as simply as I can. Think of Twitter like Facebook but only the news feed and Farmville.

(Just joking, no Farmville.)

Think of Twitter like Facebook but only the news feed, except this news feed only allows so many words to be printed…which can be good or bad. The good is; people tend to get straight to the point, not a lot of rambling. You will also not find a lot of posts like: I’m bored, I’m here with so-and-so doing something-or-other, I’m tired-going to bed, I woke up but I’m still tired, etc, blah, etc. The bad is: sometimes brilliance takes more than 140 characters to complete.

If your new to Twitter and decide to follow any of these people, it’s the @ before the name that will help you find them. For example, I’m @chrisdevoss.

Anyway, here is the list along with a sample tweet. Kind of like dipping your toes in the water. Enjoy.

Predictive Text Story

3 Aug

Predictive text makes me laugh. I chuckle a little each time I text someone with what the phone seems to think I want to write. So I thought it would be fun to rewrite a story using the predictive text that the phone would like me to use.

Predictive Text Version:

Two rabbits were walking through the first, evern though rabbis don’t really walk…they story of hop walk…but I wanted to paint the picture that these rabbis we’re more out for a geyeiit sterol, a opposed yo heading windermere purposeful, like a business merging out a carryout bay opening.

Rube first rabbit turned to the serving fanboy and said, “This is boring. I really don’t feel like walking for leisure…evern though the sun is shinning, nothing our faces, warming our backsides….evern though the breeze is mighty and cool, and the broom is musical and refreshing…and evern though the trees are proving us shade and french clean oxygen. We have just done this so many rines before. I wish we has a businesses meeting our carryout bar opening yo go too.”

The second rabbit reunited to the first rabbit and said, “I didn’t know you spoke English…”

No, no that is not weighty. Leys try that again.The second rabbit turned to the fittest fanboy and said, “Leys go to the syrup club…”

No…leys try that again.

The second rabbit turned to the first tannoy and said, “Why don’t you go get vent you dumb ads. We are rabbits. This is what we do. We are part of nature. Screw the bishops and bustle of the big court life. Screw teases and death and inflation and debt ceilings and smart nutmeg children. Screw divorce and genocide and am radio. This is the life man. Do you know how hadn’t cripple world paddled south us right note?”

The second rabbit pipped a little, did that cure little mouth chewing thing rabbis do, gabe the first fanboy the finder, and went off to find somber rabbit bane who wanted to get lightly.

The End.

 

Original Version :

Two rabbits were walking through the forest, even though rabbits don’t really walk…they sort of hop walk…but I wanted to paint the picture that these rabbits were more out for a leisurely  stroll, as opposed to heading somewhere purposeful, like a business meeting or a carrot bar opening.

The first rabbit turned to the second rabbit and said, “This is boring. I really don’t feel like walking for leisure…even though the sun is shining, hitting our faces, warming our backsides…even though the breeze is light and cool, and the brook is musical and refreshing…and even though the trees are providing us shade and fresh clean oxygen. We have just done this so many times before. I wish we had a business meeting or carrot bar opening to go too.”

The second rabbit turned to the first rabbit and said, “I didn’t know you spoke English…”

No, no that is not right. Let’s try that again.

The second rabbit turned to the first rabbit and said, “Let’s go to the strip club…”

No…let’s try that again.

The second rabbit turned to the first rabbit and said, “Why don’t you go get bent you dumb ass. We are rabbits. This is what we do. We are part of nature. Screw the hustle and bustle of the big city life. Screw taxes and death and inflation and debt ceilings and smart mouthed children. Screw divorce and genocide and AM radio. This is the life man. Do you know how many people would trade places with us right now?”

The second rabbit pooped a little, did that cute little mouth chewing thing that rabbits do, gave the first rabbit the finger, and went off to find some rabbit babe who wanted to get lucky.

The End.

 

 


Massive Headache

2 Aug

I promised myself that I would try to post a blog everyday, but today my head is pounding. I can’t think, it hurts so bad. The only thing I can think to write is:

Zombie Haiku

Aaaarg Aaaarg Aaaa
Aaaarg Aaaaarg Brains Aaaaarg
Chomp Chomp Chomp Aaaarg
 

I’m not good at figuring out which medicine works the best for which aliment. (and my wife is not here to ask) So I took an Advil, a Tums, a Flintstone vitamin, some purple and red cough syrup mixed together, and an old dusty M&M I found behind the toaster.

This is a bad combination, because my head still hurts and I have a sudden urge to go clubbing in my underwear.

I would lie down but the tap dancing gnomes in my head get even angrier at me. I think it’s because I put their dance floor at a 90 degree angle, thus making it harder to dance.

Since we are out of ice, I’m going to make a cold compress out of an empty beer bottle and a Swanson Frozen Lasagna.

This is not effective, by the way, as I currently have a frost bitten lasagna noodle attached to my left eyebrow.

I fear if I pull it off, I could lose the eyebrow.

Meanwhile Somewhere On The Internet Pt 3

I think this sign was meant for me

And this sign was meant for Tenagers

Does whatever a Spider-Can Can...

These two took all day to get their photo.
