Naming a car is an essential thing to do. Most people just go with referring to their automobile with names like “The Honda”, “The Red Car” or “The Truck”. You can do better than that, people, come on. I just got rid of my 1994 Jeep Cherokee, aka “The Rhinosaur” and I have recently been thinking about names for vehicles.
In my travels throughout the United States I have noticed, as many of you may have, that the driving customs change from area to area. I am now in Northern Virginia for Christmas and I went to do a little shopping last weekend. On my way to the store I noticed a few annoying things such as everyone going, at the very least, 15 over the speed limit and the all too common left turn while I am trying to right turn coming from the other way.
When I was a young lad I liked the Dallas Cowboys. I remember running around pretending to be Danny White while wearing my Cowboys shirt and toughskin jeans. It was a good time for the Cowboys, right around the end of their 20 years of consecutive winning seasons under legendary coach Tom Landry. Tom Landry invented the 4-3 defense and the Flex defense. He had been the coach for the Cowboys since they had been a team and had helped them to become a great football team. When I think of football in the old days before the mid 80′s I think of the Cowboys, then the Packers, then the Bears. No other teams really stand out historically to me.
With OJ Simpson being sentenced today I thought this would be a good time for me to travel into the future to see what is in store for him. As I looked around the future I was shocked when I found a newspaper dated April 23, 2019. The newspaper relayed the following details:
1. Ultimate fighting isn’t really ultimate fighting. For that, you have to watch a war. They should instead call it “Pretty Rough Fighting”.
2. I like Lost. It is one of the few shows I watch. You should catch up on all the episodes then start watching the next to last season in January.
The F word. One must admit it is one of the ugliest words in the English language. It is used in all kinds of different situations and has multiple meanings. I must confess that in the most rare and perfectly timed instances I have found it’s use to be hilarious. Unfortunately a vast majority of it’s uses just come off as crude, uneducated and disrespectful. The origins of the word seem to fascinate many people and there are many differing versions.
1. Can you believe that Guns n’ Roses is releasing Chinese Democracy after something like 14 years in the making?
2. As a result of number 1 you can get free Dr. Pepper.
3. BYU plays Utah tomorrow. (Go Cougars) My prediction is that the Utes win and I would like to see the score be 34-31 since that has been the final score in more BYU-Utah games than any other score. Remember to not be a jerk fan. Just have fun with a rivalry. There are too many idiots out there that actually hate other people because they like a different team.
4. I can’t decide whether to be scared or excited about an Arrested Development movie. No one from the cast has really done anything good since the show ended and usually people try to think bigger for the movie in writing and totally miss the original vibe of the tv show.
5. I want one of these for Christmas.
6. If I was a Governor of a state or President of these fine United States, I would only pardon a turkey if their case was questionable and still had some lingering reasonable doubt. Otherwise they are a delicious danger to society and should be killed.
As a public service I will proclaim another very important rule for life.
When it comes to money, if it sounds to good to be true, it is.
I have seen many people get suckered in by different schemes. “Oh I am getting a return at a huge interest rate for this thing I gave money to.” they’ll say. Or they try the secret shopper scam. Signing up for some company that will help you make cash after you buy a video tape or a membership from them is another one.
With all the recent hullabaloo surrounding Bigfoot, I thought I would let everyone know what the real story is.
A Sasquatch is very large, harry and elusive. To remain hidden for so long you must be very, very clever. It would take skills and possibly technology that are far beyond what we can come up with. One could even say that these skills could have been learned long ago, in a galaxy far away. That’s right, the Sasquatch race are descendants of Wookiees.
As an Eagle Scout I find it very helpful to “Be Prepared” for any situation that may arise. When looking at a place to live I check the usual things such as, “Are the showers low flow?”, “Are there any strange noises when I step anywhere or lean on something?”, and “Could a zombie easily access windows?”. I myself, have had zombie plans long before it was popular.
