It took me 3 1/2 hours to get online this morning. My ISP people tell me that MCI and Sprint lost a line between California and Indiana. I thought my computer took another dump.
The human corpse found near here last week has been identified as a missing woman from Carson City. This still gives me the creeps.
This was a bad week at CBS, renamed by me- "Creative Bull Shit."
He should resign. CBS sucks because of him; and I can never take him seriously again. He makes the tabloids look good.
Now they have been fined for the super bowl boob flash. I can't see why, because there is no proof that CBS planned it. If anyone should pay a fine, it should be Janet.
I was watching when that all happened. I remember laughing because I realized I saw a live blooper.
I wasn't traumatized, just amused.
The annual freak show called the "Burning Man Festival" is going on, and this small town seems to be on a major route to this, so I have seen some "fascinating" people.
Also- and I know this may seem odd to anyone who has never been here- there is the "Cantaloupe Festival" going on. Cantaloupes are grown here, I don't like them myself, but hey- to each their own.
Although, I did once taste a Cantaloupe Milkshake- wasn't too bad.
I am on Medical Leave from work- so I am missing the crowds ;)
I've provided links below for your information.
Ok you dummy.... sorry you didn't find anything here to masturbate on, so now I offer you up to ridicule:
At 5:55 Pacific Time somebody from Vancouver, Washington came here with this Google thread:
"I want to fuck Michelle Malkin"
Moron. Go jump into Mt. St. Helens.
Six people who were drunk were denied entry onto an airliner at the Moscow airport.
The plane took off without them- and crashed moments later along with another airliner in what turns out to be an apparent terrorist attack.
Talk about ironic.

Proofreading has become a thing of the past. I saw this and could not believe it.

Ok, perverts...... that's not what I meant.....
I have been pissing stone fragments all day..... It feels like shooting a pellet gun.
I have no idea what is wrong with me. I have been dragging my butt for 4 days now, I am so tired and lethargic, I can hardly stay awake. I feel so crappy and I have to return to work tomorrow.... I can't even think of anything to blog about.
Sometimes a laser is used to pulverize the stone, but when a laser is used, the doctor must use an endoscope, which is a tube introduced into the body, via the urinary tract, to get close to the stone.
The key phrase is "introduced into the body,via the urinary tract."
Being male, you know where that "introduction" took place.

Regardless of when the first true Father's Day occurred, the strongest promoter of the holiday was Mrs. Bruce John Dodd of Spokane, Washington. She thought of the idea for Father's Day while listening to a Mother's Day sermon in 1909.

Well- tomorrow I return to work after my brief convalescence from my ankle injury. Should be fun hobbling around.
I didn't realize the damage I did to my foot until I took off the cast- my foot is black and blue in areas that doesn't even hurt.
The say I may have torn a ligament.
This is my 100th post, and the net is giving me fits.
I have tried to post a message here and the damn post disappears.
I think the Internet is constipated
I stepped in a small depression in my parents yard last night and severely sprained my left ankle. Now I am on crutches and have a small cast.
I landed on my back and was concerned I may have loosened some rods and screws I have in my spine, but all I got was the sprain- which is better than the alternative.
I got to see Ronald Reagan twice during the 1980's....
The first time I saw him was in October 1980 just a few weeks before the election. I was 15 and wanted to vote so bad.
He came to Riverside, California to a huge cheering throng of people. There were 6 helicopters in his enterouge which had a dramatic effect, like an invading military force.
He gave his campaign stump speech, including the comment:
Recession is when your neighbor loses their job. Depression is when you lose your job. Recovery is when Jimmy Carter loses his job
The second time I saw him was just before the election in November 1988.
He came to San Bernardino to campaign for George H.W. Bush, and he was a sharp as he was when I saw him 8 years before.
He was a very tall man, and stood out in the crowd. I could not get close to him to shake his hand, but being there to see him was the next best thing.
He was indeed a powerful presence.
I remember the day he left office- I felt like I lost a protective grandfather.
My daughter has chicken pox..... I am glad she has them now, unlike when I did when I was 19.
**** Her school year is over- the doc says she will need to stay out of school 10 days- which shit-cans the year for her.
As for me having them when I was 19- it sucked ! .......
I had them in my hair- between my toes, in my mouth, and on something else that I don't care to mention.
I looked like a burn victim.... and I have a small scar on my face that shows the severity of it.
My daughter has had the chickenpox vaccine, so it could be worse.
I am having a mind block- so I thought I would share this.
When I was about 13, we had company over.
I felt this big sneeze coming on, and as I turned away from the people to sneeze
my butt was facing towards them.
I sneezed hard, doubled over, and farted on our guests.
This story was shared with us at the memorial service this past Monday. Only now can I think clearly enough to post this....
Last week there was a birthday party for a girl who called my deceased friend and co-worker "Uncle." He was invited to attend, but had passed away 6 days before the birthday party.
I don't think there was an actual relation there, but this teenage girl thought enough of him to call him that.
At one point she was seen dancing alone.
When asked what she was doing she replied:
"I'm dancing with Uncle Kenny."
I really hate this time of year....
All the little high school and college pukes who think they know it all are graduating to a kick in the ass.
I admit to some envy/jealousy for college graduates because I got screwed out of going to college.
There were stupid things that happened and broken promises which kept me from going.
(Another story for another day)
I just hate it when these little pukes get everything handed to them on a platter and they never had to work a job for it.
What I really do not like is hearing parents spewing and gushing over how their little Johnny has been accepted at Shitworm University, or the fact that they are graduating and going to be some big attorney/porn star/ whatever.
Maybe I envy them because somebody gave a shit about their future.....
Ok- enough ranting about this for now......
I realized only today how quick the police responded to my call on Sunday when
Kenny didn't show up for work......
I was relieved for a break about 8 AM, when I returned about 8:10, and the acting manager was checking and told me that we should call the police to do a welfare check.
Our small town paper prints police calls and today it says:
"May 9, coroner call, South Taylor St. 8:15 AM"
Only 5 minutes..... they were quick !
I want to thank Jane from Burnt Fuse for designing this blog :)
It looks kind of deserty :)
The procedure lasted about 3 hours.
They have tried numerous times to blast the stone with sound waves ( called lithoptripsy ) but it was not working.
What they did was insert a scope and laser into the only natural opening down there (and I don't mean the anus ) and hit it with a laser.
Needless to say- I am sore, and it hurts to pee :(
They seem to have blasted the stone this time, but half of the stone went into the "south pole" of the kidney.
Now I am being treated for gout..... I feel too young for this crap-lol.
Just a short note to say Hi :) I am a bit sore from my surgery.
I hope to do more blogging tomorrow :) I am under the influence of pain meds at the moment, so I wouldn't sound too intelligent-lol.
On a side note- out of curiousity, I put a search on google for my blog- and found it :)
I am not sure if that is any big deal- but I thought it was cool :)
Have a good night, will see you tomorrow.
