Money For Your Conveyance, Calculate Your Stimulus
Tax time is right around the corner, and as such we are all preparing to spend our big-ass returns; right? Yeah, I have to pay this year (also). Not as much as Fookie (I Win Again!), but still, I hate paying the government when they have proven to be such mischievous spenders. And to think, Republicans would have me believe that it is my sandal wearin’ hippie freak Demo friends that are taking all my hard earned greenbacks to give to the poor. It’s probably Hillary’s fault, or that Obama Bin Laden dude.
This is not, repeat not, a political post, simply another in the long line of ‘hey check this out’. So, check this out !

I can’t feel my ass, but my family tree is H U G E !!
This past couple of weeks has been rather hectic. I walked out in the middle of a fire officer training class because apparently the guy teaching the class was too busy worrying about how good his resume sounded to all of us rather than concentrating on the fact that he is a racist. So, yeah. Might wanna have somebody look into a background before you hire a guy. Could be helpful. I did learn this, however; Don’t ever just ‘assume’ that the participants in the class you’re teaching want to hear your version of the origin of the word honky. Christ that guy was a friggin’ idiot. But ! The instructor for the morning class (yeah, I walked on a class 1 hour after returning from the lunch break on the first day; what?) brought cookies. Oh My God they were good. And I am a fat person, people (see rest of story). Hands down, after my grama’, and mama, the best damn Peanut Butter cookies I’ve had in my short 30 sumthin’ years. Thanks for those Chief ! Also, the pyramid built on the foundation of credibility using the management styles and theories as the upper stones was actually very neat and I will keep that close, remember it, and try to use that personally. Now, on to the real point of this post: I’m Fat, and My family is also huge….

Photo Fun and Updates….
Sorry for the posting delay, things got busy at the chocolate factory! Although my temper has been fairly short lately, I am proud to report that I am officially classified now as a non-smoker. Having been 44 days now with no craving of the Camel goodness, the Chantix site says I can call myself a non-smoker. I have to say to all of you curious about it, it was friggin’ easy. No B.S.

Let The Internet Choose Your Next Vote
Who likes fantasy football? I think I do, I’ve just never been so incompetent at something for so long and still had friends invite me. I don’t know that I could be worse at anything, except possibly fantasy other sports. But, around the fire station, I like to watch the ‘fantasy politics’ that goes on. I feel much like Mitch Hedberg once said, “I wish they’d let me play little league now; I’d kick ass”. If you want to start to get into the game, start here.
