Diaz took 34 minutes too die…

…when he was executed yesterday in Florida for a 1979 murder. His family members and anti-death penalty folks are up in arms about the cruelty and how he was executed “twice” because it took two shots.

A spokesman for the group Floridians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty called it a botched execution and said that “They had to execute him twice. If Floridians could witness the pain and the agony of the executed man’s family, they would end the death penalty.”

I don’t know about all that, but if everyone had the chance to witness an execution, they would probably start supporting more use of birth control.

Pretty Devastated?

Yeah, right.

Anybody want some stew fixins’?

I adopted a cat about a year ago. She is an inside cat. When I adopted her I got most of the shots and stuff. One thing I have not done yet is to get her fixed. I haven’t really worried about it too much, as she doesn’t go outside. Unfortunately the kids have let her out twice in the last month, so now she is pregnant. Around this time in January we should have a bunch of shitten pissen kittens around the house. If Rob were still alive I might have to send him a care package. I know that I won’t have too many problems getting rid of them, but what a pain in the ass.

It’s back to work for me this morning. That one day off after working seven days just kicks my ass. I managed to sleep about nine hours Sunday night, and then went to bed early last night, but tossed and turned for quite awhile, so am pretty tired this morning, and just didn’t want to get out of bed. I need to be able to clone myself.

…like an ape in heat

Apparently Eric dances “like Joe Cocker with eight or ten angry bumblebees down his trousers”. Damn. I was once told by a girlfriend some 22 years ago that I dance like an Ape in Heat. I suppose I need a few lessons from Fred myself.

no dreams…

…that I can remember anyway. I’ve been told that everyone dreams except for maybe sociopaths. Either way is fine by me, at least I was able to sleep for seven hours uninterrupted. Hopefully today will be an easy day. I think that I have extra help scheduled this morning, so I may be able to get some extra stuff done that has been needing attention, then get the hell out by 2:15.

Just a piece of meat

In one part of the article, the author says “You would not call a piece of meat a “dead animal,” even if you realize it’s a part of one”.

I don’t know. I have had a couple of pieces of meat when I was younger that I tended to refer to as “dead” animals. Just saying.

BTW, thanks for the link Leslie. I am not sure what it is, but any link having to do with beastiality and necrophilia is just too damn good NOT to click on.

No Nipple rings here…

…but if he were here he would be whacking the shit out of that other guy with his hockey stick. hehe. Thanks V-Man (just blame my blasphemous ways on him).

Professional Bloggers?

I guess that today is Judgmental Wednesday or “Asshole Hump Day” although that might carry other connotations. 🙂 I am just being very judgmental today. I am pissed off about work today so it is carrying over into everything else.

I have a MySpace account. I very rarely update it, but I set it up because my 17 year old has one and I wanted to be able to visit it, and also for a couple of old friends to find me if they so need to.

I will not link to the profile, not feeling like that much of an asshole, but I came across one today and she called herself “Blogger Extraordinaire” and listed Professional Blogger in her profile. I decided to visit her site.

I have to say, I definitely consider myself an amateur. I’ve blogged for about three years or so and kept a frequently updated website, almost a blog, for six or seven years before that. Prior to that I ran my mouth on pre-www days electronic BBSes. Michelle Malkin and Instapundit, to name two, are professional bloggers. Definitely not me.

Neither is this chick. Her myspace layout is not the most irritating, but it is pretty fucking close. I decided to pay a visit to her “professional” web site. It’s at blogspot, which was first clue that she’s not a pro. The ultra ugly background on the page as well as the fact that it would not display properly in IE were a couple more. Then there is the fact that she has posted four times since August 12th. Of course, being an amateur, I can post drivel after drivel all day long. I guess the quality of her posts makes up for doing one every ten days. Not.

Maybe I just have my Andy Rooney shirt on today or something, but just because you spend 18 hours a day sitting your fat ass in front of the computer, that DOES NOT MAKE YOU A PROFESSIONAL BLOGGER.

Wonderful Sleep

It’s getting harder to get up in the morning. Damn. This is my 11th day straight at work (took a half day on Wednesday) and I have five days left. Not sure if I will make it through the end of the week without oversleeping. Luckily the manager/trainee will be back at work tomorrow, so if I do oversleep I will just blow it off like I planned it that way.

I left the house a mess last night and went to bed last night anyway. I guess it will give me something to do when I get home this afternoon anyhow.

Little Grey Cells?…

…as Poirot would say? Or just little ear treasures? What is it about Q-Tips that makes you look at them after removal to see what little treasures might be bestowed upon you? Perhaps something grew in there as you slept.

I always think about the scene in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, where little creatures are inserted into Chekov and some other dude through their ear canals. I keep hoping if I dig hard enough I might find one.
