The Origination of Swine Flu

This thing has been going around the internet....

-

Deleted the last post because when I woke up this morning it seemed meaner then it did when I wrote it.
-
Rays and Redsox Playing some ball this weekend here in the Tampa area. Maybe Sunday I will go out, but today would be the day to go as it's Beckett against Garza which are the aces.

A day at the beach

If You look at the center of the photograph at about the point where the Ocean meets the sky and also have superpower vision, you could see Mexico -- We didnt go their though and we didnt catch any type of flu from any pigs either.

A day at the beach.

A little Sunny out

Funny thing happened at the beach. I bought myself a new swimsuit that had a velcro fly operation going on in the front, but they didn't design it for a fellow of my proportions and long story short, the part that makes me a Man ended up rubbing on the back side of the velcro clasp thing, and it was not the "good" kind of penis rubbing at all .... So I know, TMI but it ended up being uncomfortable enough that I threw the new suit out after the day was done.

Sometimes my son just wants me to take a picture of him and because he is so cute I can't help myself

Obama, asks Tim Tebow for some help

Tim Tebow and President Obama --- Shaking each other's hands.

OBAMA: "Tim, can you help me out with hunting down Osama Bin Laden?"

a brief summary of important speeches

There are many great speeches given by all kinds of different notable people.
-
Abraham Lincoln spoke about Unity as a government at the Gettysburg address and started that thing off by talking about Four Score and seven years ago. which, to me and you, means 87 years ago, but his point was basically that "this devastation here at Gettysburg will not go without a future accomplishment" It is implied, ---but from that speech you knew the North was not going to lose that war. and future historians have documented that battle as being the turning point. Know what? They didn't lose that war either. (Go NORTH)

-
Martin Luther King Junior also had a speech. He was all about letting the suffering of his race shine through, but in the end it would be all right because He had a dream. He acknowledged the situation as it was, but basically said: In the future we will be equal. (now we have a Black President) so he was probably right about that as well, all though I acknowledge Race relations are still being worked on in this country and the future is still to come.




-
Finally We have a speech given by a kid, although he is basically the second son of JESUS and can do no wrong, He is also the same person that has counted to INFINITY... Twice. .........Don't tell him he can only eat one Lays Potato chip. He eats as many as he damn well wants to eat.
-
When SuperMan turns in at night, he wears Tim Tebow Pajamas. So in the same vein as Lincoln and King, he can also make speeches that predict the future. Then We as Gator Fans May also post copies of those same speeches up on top of our football facilities like he has long ago been dead, yet at the same time you have to be impressed with a kid that studley that they change the football facilities around. He is the only player in the ring of Honor to get there, Not while he was still playing professionally, but while he is still playing COLLEGIATLY .

-
Here is what he said, and what eventually became a legendary piece of art WHILE HE WAS STILL PLAYING: ( Click on the phot and you can read it better unless of course you are actually Tim Tebow yourself and you can read brail by looking at it yourself)
-

(click on this picture to be able to read what he actually said, sometimes interpretations of shit gets all kind of political and biased in nature)

If you cannot read the TRIBUTE to that fall day, Here is what he said: "and this is just a translation". Squint your eyes if you really want to read what he said exactly, or you know, Click on the picture" but it was something to this effect:
-
Losing to Ole Miss SUCKED my ass. I apologize for that BULLSHIT. This will be good for us going forward though, because I personally will not allow us to LOSE again, EVER.
-
LSU can KISS my ass. I plan on going Mid Nineties Spurrier on their ass. The score will get so out of hand on them they will think they were playing Basketball and getting run down by a full court press led by Michael Jordan in his PRIME. They will come out of the Swamp as skeletons of themselves. We will beat them so bad that they will lose to TULANE, or if they don't they will only barely come back for the win which is probably worse and they will have to explain themselves.
-
That is how bad we will beat those Cajun LSU dudes.
-
ALABAMA,? FUCK them and their undefeated ass, after the ass whupping we put on them in the championship game, stupid fucking UTAH will probably kick their ass, that is how bad we will beat them.
-
We will beat them down so much that the embarrassment of a WAC team beating an SEC team in the SUGAR bowl will be worth it to us and me personally. That will happen because SABAN is an EVIL EVIL EVIL man, and nothing says mediocrity short of a WAC/SEC meeting in which the WAC prevails and after we beat them they will become just a shell of themselves.
-
Also to everyone that did not vote for me to win my second Heisman...... SEE YOU IN 2009. My Goodness can you really look yourself in the mirror and NOT vote for the best College Football Player of ALL TIME. of course I would never say that but the guy interpreting this blog is all like you are an IDIOT.....if you dont vote the Heisman for me.

The one where I whine about stuff

Tough week for the Billster.
-
Monday I did my taxes, no refund for me, in fact I owe MORE money. On wednesday The 15th, I wrote a Big old Check that is going to probably be spent on Infrastructure and stuff, but probably just some silly road in Montana or Idaho. I have nothing against either of those States, but I have never been to either, and I dont drive on those roads much.
-
Today my car just died. It wasn't that big of a deal except that I use my car to go places and cars that dont start wont get you very far. So I dealt with that (it was a fuse, but it wasnt just a harmless Radio Fuse or something, it was the fuse that brings electricity to the Starter) that was 27 dollars, plus the 40 dollars for the tow. Then when it was in the shop I had them replace some belts which was another 155 and I added an Oil Change.
-
Tomorrow will bring some more issues I will have to deal with and then the weekend . Thank goodness for this weekend.

Rays Vs. Yankees

Went to see a Major League Baseball Game this past Tuesday Night. AJ Burnett of the Yankees was mixing his stuff up well, and had a No Hitter going into the 7th. I started getting excited about possibly witnessing it, and texted a bunch of people. Almost as soon as I hit SEND The Rays ripped off back to back to back hits.
-
Matt Garza of the Rays threw 7 innings and had 8 strikeouts. He was Like Linda Ronstadt out there on the mound, (Blue Bayou) Except in his case his fast ball BLEW BY YOU




This Picture was taken from where our seats were. It will spoil you to sit so freaking close like that though. The Rays warmed up this one guy right there in the bull pen his name was balfour which has to be one of the worst names for a pitcher but this guy was bringing it. They ended up not putting him in though but that was some Vapor that he was throwing.
-
Managed to get a picture of my Neighbor DEREK JETER (Sort of,) Okay, maybe we arent quite Neighbors, but he is building a Mansion about a half a mile away from where I live, so its not Like I am going to be borrowing grated cheese from him or anything like that, but we do share the same Zip code ....



Derek Jeter opened the game up with a three run Homer in the top half of the 9th to make it 7 to 2 which was my Cue to head it on out to the parking lot.
-
If I wake up tomorrow and find out the RAYS came back in the bottom half, I am going to be SOOOO pissed.

Easter Weekend

From This past Easter Weekend in Miami .....

My Son and Daughter in Miami this past weekend. My Daughter is holding my sons Arms down so that he wont make a bunny rabbit sign behind her head.

My Son believed that My daughter was making Bunny rabbit signs behind HIS head in this photo, even though I told him she didnt.

My Daughter Posing....

My Daughter Laughing because she has such a very funny Daddy...

Not yet Grasshoppers.

A few weeks ago I taught my kids how to play the game of "Risk" This is simply the worlds finest board game. It Kicks the ass out of the: "do not pass go, do not collect $200 dollar" Monopoly game. They both have dice and they both have little game pieces, but at the end of Monopoly, someone is the richest dude. At the end of a Game of Risk you have basically conquered the entire known world.

-

When I taught them the game, I did it by example so they could see the might of My little armies up close, and feel the devastation of their own little armies. It was some global domination alright, but it was done out of love. Self Love, because I don't like losing at the game of Risk, but also out of being a good father. Showing them the way, as it were. Little Buggers learned quick though. Fast forward to This Past Saturday Night when they challenged me to a second game.

-

This time though, My Daughter talked my Son into forming an Alliance and the two of them worked against me. It wasn't subtle, It was overt and tactical and they were wearing me down so bad I retreated into Australia with only a couple of Asian territories left, while the two of them had America, South America, Africa and Most of Europe divied up.

-

I saw defeat coming and I was both anguished, and at the same time, proud of my progeny. It was bittersweet. They did not however, step on my throat when I was down. They did not show the killer instinct, or the foresight to put a wounded dog out of his misery and then a Cartoon basically saved me.

-

My Daughter Had Madagascar and my Son decided since that is one of his favorite movies, that he would conquer this desolate Island and own it for himself. He attacked and won. My daughter felt a sense of betrayal in the alliance and on her next turn she attacked Alaska (because she could, and it was my sons continent) This in turn created laughter and giggling and yelling which was just the cover I needed. I secured a couple of more Asian countries so that I could get my game card and then fortified. My Son took his revenge which caused my daughter to go after him again. The alliance was forgotten and I slowly built up my armies and territories until I was actually back in the game as a player and then I let it loose.

-

It was like they almost swiped the pebble out of my hand and were ready to go out into the world all Kung Fu like, but the Grasshoppers still have lessons to learn. MUWHAAHAA HAA HAAAHAAA! (that is my EVIL laugh)

Spring Break

It's Spring Break, and I have my kids for a long weekend. After work I went up and got them. We drove back down to Tampa and went to see Monsters Vs. Aliens 3D - which is a pretty entertaining Kids movie as those things go. It didn't suck. Then we went home and I asked them to get in their pajamas to get ready for bed. My Son came out wearing my Cowboy boots and asked me if he could have them after I grow out of them. I told him that I was pretty much done growing. So then he said: "Can I just have them now then?" I told him that they dont even fit you, and if you have them, then neither of us can wear them... He said I will wear them, Look I am wearing them right now. I replied, But they dont fit...His answer to that: "So"


-
Good point son, but right now those are MY boots -- maybe later....

All Terrain Vehicles Should be able to go across lakes

All terrain vehicles aren't really all terrain. They don't do so well in Lakes. If you go into the lake fast enough, for a little while it is kind of like you are a rock that is just skipping across, but it doesn't take to long to just sink. All Terrain My ass. they should say they are all terrain if you are talking about ground type terrain but not water terrain. I am sure some smarty pants would say that lakes and stuff aren't terrain, but I think by the broad definition they are.

-

It was just a dream and It didn't really happen except in my mind, and the sinking and the angst I was feeling about ruining the all Terrain Vehicle is what woke me up. There were some other parts to the dream but I really only remember riding the All Terrain Vehicle across a lake and then sinking and being pissed at myself for thinking it could make it across water in the first place. Thats just stupid.
