The Ranting Beaver

Just because ...


Happy Friday!

So, I have to say, I am tired of war.

We all know there is war in the world. Some of it has a cause, but most of it is purely political posturing. On top of this, Hollywood seems to think that people want to escape all the crap and the world and guess what ... see movies about war. What the hell? So, yeah, I am a bit over it all.

All this being said, here I wanted to say let's end war in my own way, so I put together a new shirt.



I call it 'End War 2.0'. It's pretty simple - black shirt with white letters, but I think it convey's the message. Also, it's a bit geeky, I know, but like I said, I wanted to say it in my own way. If you feel the same, order one today!

Have you ever been to the doctors office for a date????????????? not me but 2 weeks ago i went in with my son to stich up an accident he had at school.. there was this lady in the lobby putting on her make up , In my mind i was thinking that she has to go to work after this but,,, if my eyes and ears are bad and i had to get comfremation from my daughter. This lady was getting ready for a date. she had her kids occupided with Mcdonolds and toys but when the nurse was asking for her and the kids she said can you wait one min. i need to go out side for a bit .. .. She came back in with a guy.. the first kid went in for check up and shortly she came out to check on her son with the new guy... then asked AM I EVERYTHING YOU THOUGHT.... i was lmao inside.. that chick did not hook up here in the doc office ...........................

I know what you're thinking, a 2001 clip on the Dennis Miller show, right. Dave Grohl - what the hell?

This interview gave me a lot of respect for Dave Grohl. The wife and I were talking about it the other day (it actually comes up quite a bit), so thought I'd find the clip for her (thank you YouTube!). The best part starts around the 5:30 mark when they start to talk about Napster and Metallica. Once again, respect I say. Enjoy!



P.S. - Jolene, I told you I'd find it.

Given that Americans are so much overweight and some 'fast food' companies are trying a healthier approach, you gotta like the chutzpah of Taco Bell when they rolled out the Bacon Cheddar Gordita Crunch.

I think their goal is to see how many items they can get on the menu that can induce a heart attack in one meal. Just saying ...

Saw one of these the other day and they get really good mileage (partly because they are so tiny, I'm sure), so I thought I'd check out their ability to survive a crash. Safety first y'know.

Here is what I found:


Not too shabby if you ask me. Granted, a Hummer rolls over one and that may be the end of that ... just saying.

Just want to wish The Beaver and Mr. Scary a happy new year. I look forward to many more posts from you both in the coming year.

And to the rest of you peeps -- have a great year ahead. Have a laugh, have a rant, but just don't have a bad day.
