A bit of indulgence, non-old people...

All the Richard Marx talk on SCL yesterday coupled with writing my latest post has left me a bit nostalgic. I'll admit it. I was a Richard Marx fan. Regardless of your opinion of his musical chops, you must admit, the guy had some pretty amazing 80's hair. For those of you old enough to remember when you should have known better, please enjoy the following video, remembering a day when you actually thought sporting the Pebbles Flintstone hair fountain was sexy and morphing a glass of alka-seltzer into a car doing 360's on the beach was considered groundbreaking visual effects.


That guy had some seriously good hair...

For a description please see Fun and Games.



My favorite is the girl in the white shirt up on her tip toes with her knees in and feet out. Somehow that will get her safely across the tarp.

Supermarket Salsa

It seems to me that there is an influx of grocery store posts on the blogs of some of my favorite Smarty Panters. So you know I have to do one too, because I am a copy cat like that. Of course, mine is dancing in the aisles, because that is just me....

Unlike the video, I must dance without a partner. Even if Bob is with me, he usually moves on and pretends not to know me.


Unlike these people, I can't seem to find other shoppers to join me.


No, I am usually alone, like the lady in this video, except there is music playing when I dance (at least in my head), and I keep dancing throughout the whole song. I have never let the fact that I lack rhythm stop me before. I don't even let swollen feet or backaches stop me from acting silly in the supermarket.



If any of you think those are bad, check out Katdish's picture of a mannequin making an a@@ of himself at the grocery store.

Sorry friends. I just couldn't resist. I tried. For a whole two minutes. I just couldn't. But at least I avoided flour and sugar.....(you need to check out My post from yesterday. to understand that reference, and yesterday's post wasn't funny. I'm just mixing things up a little...

A Telemarketers Nightmare



I have never worked as a telemarketer. I usually try to be polite to them, but if they are persistent, I may have a little fun with them, but I was never that bad....

We're such model Christians

A man was being tailgated by a stressed out woman on a busy boulevard. Suddenly, the light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.

The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration, as she missed her chance to get through the intersection, dropping her cell phone and makeup.

As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her to exit her car with her hands up.

He took her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted, photographed, and placed in a holding cell. After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects.

He said, ''I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy in front of you and cussing a blue streak at him. I noticed the 'What Would Jesus Do' bumper sticker, the 'Choose Life' license plate holder, the 'Follow Me to Sunday-School' bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk,
so naturally...I assumed you had stolen the car.''

And speaking of books...

Okay, so not everyone who reads this blog read MY blog, which frankly is a bit insulting since this blog was, after all, the brainchild of the creator of Hey look a Chicken. Okay - just kidding. I'm just a bit too weird for some people. Whatever...

But over on my SOLO blog, I wrote a post about all the books sitting on my bookshelf waiting to be read, which got me thinking about getting one of those kindles. Does anyone have one or know someone who has one? I'm really curious. If you get one, how much are the "books"? Sounds sort of cool.

Long live King Julian!

Since Rachel was home sick today, we played with some (nice, wholesome, American Girl) dolls and watched a really great movie on PPV: Madagascar 2 - Escape to Africa. I love the penguins, but I think King Julian is my favorite:



And because you can never have too much King Julian, here's a bit from the first movie:



Thank you, freaks!

In Honor of One of the Greatest Musicians of All Time

On this date in 1827, Beethoven died. In honor of him, I post this today..




.





A tourist in Vienna is going through a graveyard and all of a sudden he hears some music. No one is around, so he starts searching for the source.

He finally locates the origin and finds it is coming from a grave with a headstone that reads: Ludwig van Beethoven, 1770-1827. Then he realizes that the music is the Ninth Symphony and it is being played backward! Puzzled, he leaves the graveyard and persuades a friend to return with him.

By the time they arrive back at the grave, the music has changed. This time it is the Seventh Symphony, but like the previous piece, it is being played backward.

Curious, the men agree to consult a music scholar. When they return with the expert, the Fifth Symphony is playing, again backward. The expert notices that the symphonies are being played in the reverse order in which they were composed, the 9th, then the 7th, then the 5th.

By the next day the word has spread and a throng has gathered around the grave. They are all listening to the Second Symphony being played backward.

Just then the graveyard's caretaker ambles up to the group. Someone in the crowd asks him if he has an explanation for the music.

"Oh, it's nothing to worry about" says the caretaker. "He's just decomposing!"


Thanks to Happy Catholic, who posted this months ago!

A Gift to Remember

We have a wedding coming up in the family, which brings us to that endeared tradition of registering for gifts that most people can't afford to buy for couples they barely know. So in light of the fact that I need to re-register (can't you do that after 35 years?) and my pots and pans have seen better days (read: my family has eaten all the non-stick coating and are all going to die), I want to be gifted this pan. It doesn't matter that I'm not the one getting married. It would make the holiest of food. Children would never misbehave at the table if Jesus was embedded in their French Toast now, would they?

And whackin' somebody up the side of the head with it would seem so fruitful.

Cheap Sunglasses - Oh, yeah!

I'm currently working on my post-rodeo post over at HLAC, in the meantime, enjoy a sample of the awesomeness I witnessed last night.



When they first started playing last night, my husband asked me, "Where is the rest of the band? That can't be just the three of them sounding like that." EXACTLY -- they are the Awesome Cat of Rock and Roll; and hometown boys to boot!

Picture This

So, I'm not usually one to brag (ahem)...but I have to say that if there were an award to give out for the most amazing picture to ever be taken...I might have to claim the prize for being a part of that picture.

I was trying to add this picture to my facebook album and in my attempt to caption it I felt like I simply couldn't do it justice.

Such a picture is worth a thousand words. Have any?

Sarcastics Anonymous



Here is an amusing little video about sarcasm I saw on Stacy from Louisville a couple of weeks ago.

Sorry friends, I don't know why, but I can't seem to get the copy and paste going on the embed function. I haven't been able to for a while now. I don't know what is wrong, so you will just need to follow the link if you want to see the video, which I thought was really funny. Enjoy!

Update on JoAnn

Last night she went into a coma and Pastor went to visit and pray. She came out of the coma while he was there but overnight has gone back. The Dr. says she only has a day or two left because of the fluid on her lungs.

I am going to visit again right now. Please continue to pray. If the story of Lazarus tells us anything it is that God's time is never too late.

Clayton McDonald Revisited

Hey all,

I posted last week here about Clayton McDonald. I just wanted to inform you all that Clayton has gone home to be with the Lord. You can read more about it here on my blog if you would like.

Clayton was a true man of God and I highly suggest that you hear his story. It is amazing.

You are all awesome. Keep up the good work.
God Bless.

Prayer

A dear lady in my church as cancer. She is amazing and often testified to God's goodness even as her health got worse and worse. The Dr. says she is going to die soon. I just got back from visiting and my eyes want to believe the Dr. She is yellow because her kidneys have begun failing and she is also holding so much fluid that she is about 80 lbs heavier than just a few weeks ago. She is on oxygen and hospice has taken over her home care.

Everything says she will not be with us long but my heart says God will heal her. I want to see her teaching my kids on Sunday morning again. I want to see her give a testimony of the healing power of God. I want to see people come to know God because of that powerful testimony.

Please pray for her. More specifically pray for her complete healing. Nature is set for her to pass soon so we don't need God to do much in helping her there. She will be with Him regardless of your prayer in this. We need God to do the supernatural. We need Him to move if any other outcome will happen.

I prayed with her today and honestly she was less yellow after the prayer. It is a small thing but if we get more and more people praying then those small things will add up to total healing.

Please pray and pass it along.

Sherri, I scoff in your general direction...

On a "normal" blog, to use the term "a few posts ago" would ordinarily mean "a few days ago". In case you haven't noticed, this blog does not fall into that category. As soon as I figure out what category this blog falls into, you'll be the first to know. But I do know this, Sherri posted an old picture of herself and laid down a challenge to anyone "brave" enough to post a picture of themselves. Aside from frizzy hair and a dress made completely from petroleum products, I saw nothing "embarrassing" about the picture. It was a relatively "normal" looking picture.

But I'm always up for a challenge. So, Ladies and Gentlemen, I dare you to behold the mighty, awesome power of the 80's Texas Super Hair, which, outside the confines of Trinity Broadcasting Network, know no equal:

What can we learn from worms


A minister thought that a visual demonstration would add emphasis to his Sunday sermon.

Four worms were put in four separate jars. The jar was filled with alcohol,the second jar was full of cigarette smoke, the third jar was full of chocolate syrup, and the fourth jar was filled with clean soil.

At the conclusion of the sermon, the minister reported the following results:

The first worm in alcohol - Dead.
The second worm in cigarette smoke - Dead
The third worm in chocolate syrup - Dead
The fourth worm in good clean soil -Alive.

So the Minister asked the congregation,’What did you learn from this demonstration?’

Maxine, sitting in the back of the church, quickly raised her hand and said,

‘As long as you drink, smoke and eat chocolate, you won’t have worms!’

Just In: Actual Untouched photo of Nick the Geek!



Alright, alright! I'm going to actually leave the house and go see a movie now. Maybe I'll pick up some ginko bibloba while I'm out...

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

I'm going to be honest. When alert blogger and conspiracy theorist Timbo at The Wide World of Timbo
first suggested that animals were conspiring to take over the world by force, a was extremely skeptical. After all, he had only a photo of a bear and a cat together. Photos can be easily doctored. The following is an excerpt from his post:

On the surface, it may seem incongruous that the cats and the bears would unite, and I have to admit that even I have long predicted a monkey/bear alliance, which could still happen. If you think about it for a little bit, it makes sense. Cats sleep 22 hours a day. Bears sleep for months at a time. Cats like fish. Bears can fish. Cats like to interrupt humans while reading newspapers. Bears eat humans. The symbiotic relationship that exists between a cat and a bear is evident only when considered at length, but once discovered, eerily strong.

I have now reconsidered. Watch the following video and then decide for yourself if we are ever really safe when bears are learning ninja skills in clear view of the public.


Flash Mob Phenom

This is a totally awesome phenomenon happening around the country. It's like one massive prank and you can read about it here.

But you can watch it here:

And of course, there are Ninjas...

Now keep in mind, this was 1980, and curly hair was "in" (even though mine was more fuzzy than curly- thank goodness for flat irons!).

Come on, it will be fun- post a stupid pic of yourself from the past!

Or do you think I should automatically be declared the winner?

I Only Steal the Very Best....

I was checking out Joanna's Crazy Christian Clips. and thought to myself "fo' shizzle, this granny is opposite the granny I joked about earlier, Hawaian salutin' granny.

Friday Funny

I found this blog called warkitty.com. It's mostly wicked funny, but there's a bunch of stuff that's in pretty poor taste and there's some profanity, so I can't say I would highly recommend it. There's a section on the sidebar with links to motivational posters. Again, above rule also applies here. But these are relatively clean. Okay the first one, not so much, but I couldn't help myself; also I blacked out a dirty word in one of them. Anyway, they cracked me up:





"I got a fee-vah!"

My Top 37 List

Since we seem to be bombarded by bad news on a daily basis(natural disasters, bankruptcies and foreclosures, crime, politics, national debt, etc.) it's easy to become a Debbie Downer or Negative Ned because of this. So, I thought now would be a perfect time to come up with a list of things I think are cool. I could easily think of a hundred things, but I am going to just do my top 37, and I chose the number 37 because that happens to be my favorite number this year (yes, Katdish I'm THAT young). This list isn't necessarily in order of importance except for #1. #1 IS actually #1 on my list, as well as #2, then #3 & #4, always. But really, the rest are in no particular order.

1. God loves me, he's always there no matter what and he never holds my crummy actions or junk against me and he is bigger than any mountiain I face. That is awesomely cool.

2. Jon is the love of my life and I really dig him.

3. My daughter is funny, sweet, big-hearted, ridiculous, stubborn, sassy, beautiful and we have a lot of fun together.

4. My son is a hunter and fisherman, a gentleman, kind-hearted, extremely smart and he has a great laugh that makes me giggle.

5. My parents rock. Seriously, I am a lucky girl to have the parents I do.

6. Scott's BBQ'd teriyaki tri-tip. He is the King of that!

7. Tulum, Mexico. I am sure that God has a favorite vacation spot and this is it.

8. My house on the river and in the woods. I don't have one yet, but one-day Jon is going to buy one for me.

9. Indian summer days.

10. When me, my parents and my two brothers are all together. We can laugh for hours.

11. Chips and salsa. These are even better when eaten in Mexico.

12. A cold Pacifico with lime on a hot summer day.

13. A 61' Impala in cortez silver and black - and if God had a favorite car I'm sure this would be it.

14. Jon's laugh.

15. Walking Bozley on the river trail. He is the coolest most dorkiest dog ever.

16. Riding on the motorcycle.

17. Seeing Jon's face when he realized he was the proud owner of a 69' Camaro.

18. Rocky road ice cream with real marshmallows.

19. Friends that I've know my whole life and my new blog buds.

20. A good cry.

21. Coaching volleyball (Go Bears!).

22. People with big hearts and enormous amounts of humility.

23. My nieces and nephews, especially Eli in his Spidy costume.

24. Vacation.

25. Coffee first thing in the morning.

26. Eggs, bacon and biscuits and gravy from Pilot Butte Drive-Inn.

27. Sunrises and sunsets.

28. Naps.

29. A good book.

30. Gardening AFTER the last frost in June.

31. Tulips.

32. The sun.

33. Hiking in the woods.

34. Mountain biking on Phil's trail.

35. Cocktails with the girls.

36. Dinner with friends.

37. Laughing.

Yep, good stuff.

Honk if You Love Jesus...

Wendy, from the blog below, invites us to participate in life is funny week. Below the button, I share one of my favorite jokes. I first heard it in a prayer meeting years ago. I laughed so hard, tears were streaming down my face. I hope you enjoy it, too.




Got a letter from Grandma the other day. She writes...

Dear Friend,

The other day I went up to a local Christian bookstore and saw a "honk if you love Jesus" bumper sticker. I was feeling particularly sassy that day because I had just come from a thrilling choir performance, followed by a thunderous prayer meeting, so I bought the sticker and put it on my bumper.

Boy, I'm glad I did! What an uplifting experience followed!

I was stopped at a red light at a busy intersection, just lost in thought about the Lord and how good He is...and I didn't notice that the light had changed. It is a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn't honked, I'd never have noticed! I found that LOTS of people love Jesus!

While I was sitting there, the guy behind started honking like crazy, and then he leaned out of his window and screamed, "For the love of GOD! GO! GO! Jesus Christ, GO!"

What an exuberant cheerleader he was for Jesus! Everyone started honking! I just leaned out of my window and started waving and smiling at all these loving people. I even honked my horn a few times to share in the love!

There must have been a man from Florida back there because I heard him yelling something about a "sunny beach"... I saw another guy waving in a funny way with only his middle finger stuck up in the air. I asked my teenage grandson in the back seat what that meant, he said that it was probably a Hawaiian good luck sign or something.

Well, I've never met anyone from Hawaii, so I leaned out the window and gave him the good luck sign back. My grandson burst out laughing ... he was enjoying this religious experience, too!

A couple of the people were so caught up in the joy of the moment that they got out of their cars and started walking towards me. I bet they wanted to pray or ask what church I attended, but this is when I noticed the light had changed. So, I waved to all my sisters and brothers grinning, and drove on through the intersection. I noticed I was the only car that got through the intersection before the light changed again and I felt kind of sad that had to leave them after all the love we had shared, so I slowed the car down, leaned out of the window and gave them all the Hawaiian good luck sign one last time as I drove away.

Praise the Lord for such wonderful folks!

Love,

Grandma

Clayton McDonald

Hey all!

Tonight at Campus Crusade there was an amazing speaker named Clayton McDonald that touched the hearts of the 1,300 students in attendance. He isn't what you would expect but I really wanted to share his story with you all. Here is a link to my post and another link of him speaking at a church service (The video is pretty long but he is amazing. If you want the shortened version you can just read my post.). Please check it out because his story is incredible.

God Bless!

Awesome Sports Stories Vol. 3

Sorry I haven't been around in a while. School and everything is weighing down pretty hard. I should be getting back into the swing of things soon.

This has been around for a bit but I watched this video again and it really touched my heart. The sportsmanship shown is amazing. It's a bit long but check it out. It's a great story.

How cool is this?



OK you have to admit this is a super cool video. I want to know how difficult it was to plan the speech.

And now for something completely different Part 2

Buddy Love versus the Pillowcase:



For the record, I did NOT put Buddy in the pillowcase. He found his way in there all by himself. Not unlike the time he found his way into the garden tub on New Year's Eve. The notable difference between the two events was that he was actually able to extract himself from the pillowcase. The bathtub? Not so much...
One Big Happy Classics

Any questions?

I'm Pretty Sure This Is What My IT Husband Does All Day

Well, minus the accent.



If you are not familiar with the IT Crowd...you need to be. Thanks, British comedy for supplying American Geeks with laughter for decades!

I really hate to do this but....


Okay.
Katdish drew first blood.

Publicly, on Helen's neutral peace loving blog, RANDOM MUSINGS, katdish was "secretly" talking about me and I guess she thought I'd never be the wiser (cause yesterday was my Pay Day and I was out lookin' for bargain shoes!).

Well, I came back home early, and WASN'T in a good mood due to the fact that there were no good shoe bargains, and the great deals were only for ladies with HUGE FEET (which I can't wear since I'm in an adorable size 6 1/2).

I read in her comment where she calls me a MUNCHKIN!

Well, folks, THEM'S FIGHTIN' WORDS!!!

All I "heard" was BRING.IT.ON!

SO, this little munchkin is going to stoop even lower (yes folks, it's possible) and I'm going to guide you to my Dear Gabby site and allow you to read some past comments,(do about halfway down) then pay particularly close attention to Gabby's comment about the CULT KATDISH is the leader of over at Hey, Look a Chicken.

I didn't plan to expose her cult on THIS site, but she left me no choice.

She called me a munchkin.

Read it and decide for yourself.

But WHATEVER YOU DO, DON"T LOOK INTO HER WINDOW TO THE SOUL, and NEVER, under any circumstances, receive or wear a SNUGGIE sent to you by her.

Trust me. You'll wear it and will turn into a totally different person!

Just ask Beth.

My work is done here.

When the snuggie doesn't cut it

Lutran Air

WE ARE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE LUTHERAN AIRLINES IS NOW OPERATING IN MINNYSOTA!
ALSO SERVING VISCONSIN, NORDERN MITCHIGEN, NORT & SOUT DAKOTA

If you are travelin soon, consider Lutran Air, the no-frills airline. You're all in da same boat on Lutran Air, here flyin is a upliftin experience.

Dair is no first class on any Lutran Air flight. Meals are potluck. Rows 1 tru 6, bring rolls; 7 tru 15, bring a salad; 16 tru 21, a hot dish, and 22-30, a dessert.

Basses and tenors please sit in da rear of da aircraft. Everyone is responsible for his or her own baggage.

All fares are by free will offering, and da plane will not land til da budget is met.

Pay attention to your flight attendant, who vill acquaint you wit da safety system aboard dis Lutran Air.

Okay den, listen up; I'm only gonna say dis vonce:

In da event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, I am frankly gonna be real surprised and so vill Captain Olson, because ve fly right around two tousand feet, so loss of cabin pressure would probably mean da Second Coming or someting of dat nature, and I wouldn't bodder with doze liddle masks on da rubber tubes-- you're gonna have bigger tings to worry about den dat. Just stuff doze back up in dair liddle holes. Probably da masks fell out because of turbulence which, to be honest wit you, we're gonna have quite a bit of at two tousand feet, sorta like driving across a plowed field, but after a while you get used to it.

In da event of a water landing, I'd say forget it. Start saying da Lord's Prayer and just hope you get to da part about forgive us our sins as we forgive dose who sin against us, which some people say 'trespass against us,' but what can you do?

Da use of cell phones on da plane is strictly forbidden, not because day may confuse da plane's navigation system, which is by da pants all da way. No, it's because cell phones are a pain in da wazoo, and if God had meant you to use a cell phone, He wudda put your mout on da side of your head.

We start lunch right about noon and it's buffet style wit da coffeepot up front.

Den we'll have da hymn sing; hymnals are in da seat pockets in front of you. Don't take yours wit you when you go or I am gonna be real upset and I am not kiddin!

Right now I'll say Grace:

Come, Lord Jesus, be our guest and let deze gifts to us be blessed.

Fader, Son, and Holy Ghost, May we land in Dulut or pretty close.

Amen.

As a matter of fact, dogs can be embarrassed

And now for something completely different...


Just to tell you, this is an edited version of the original video, which was 5 minutes and 47 seconds of Buddy barking at the cows behind our house. So, you're welcome.


As you can clearly see from the video, the cows are terrified.

More Awesome Than Awesome Cat




And that's saying a lot coming from me.

Here's to being a geek:

Table of Awesoments





P.S. My cousin had a link to this on his Facebook. Geeks of a feather....

He Gave His Life for Tourism.....



This was peeking through Nick's post. This was always my favorite skit. Yes, I was six at the time. I did not normally watch SNL., but my cool cousin Rick loved this song, and I loved everything my cool cousin Rick did. So mom and dad let me stay up to watch this skit, then sent me off to bed. I guess my parents were cooler than I thought...
Also this is the first record I ever had that was not from "The Little White Duck" variety....

The Cardiac Patient Education Video

I try to teach our patients this stuff every day. Who knew I could have used such effective teaching methods? The exception is that oatmeal, Grape Nuts, and fruit bowls are A-ok-smarty-pants approved.

I stole this from brent(inworship). I can guarantee that katdish won't make it all the way through. It's just a bit too monotonous. And she'll get really, really hungry. Like I did.

Van down by the cowbell

Two classic SNL skits.



Well Sonny, Back in My Day......



This video reminded me of my dad's story about walking to school five miles, wearing shoes only when it snowed. I realized from this video that now I am the one who tells unbelieveable stories about the hardships of the old days compared to now. I hope you enjoy the video. It is a hoot. And I stole it from Ironic Catholic. Shhhhhhhh. Don't tell anyone.

They say laughter is the best medicine

Good thing this Dr. makes house calls.



And for geeks like me ...
