We all get emails from time to time that have been forwarded a thousand times, and they contain various funny images. Usually it goes like this: Open email; view contents; teehee; delete.
This time I actually felt compelled to modify and post them on the site, cuz they just got me laughing that hard. Here ya go…

Yes folks, boys n girls, dogs n cats, gays n straights, whomever you may be, it’s June 6th again, and you all know what that means…yes, it’s…
Yes, you too can show your appreciation for one of the best-ever hard rockin’ killer rip-ass thrash metal bands to ever stride through God’s green Earth!
But, but…Chewy, how do I, as humble as I may be, how does one such as I take part in making my hallowed point?
It’s simple. Just take that dial on your music-playing device and make sure that it’s as close to the maximum setting as your ears can handle. And then turn it a little higher and hit the Play button. See? It’s so simple, even a caveman can do it, and if I’m not mistaken, Slayer is preferred by 4 out of 5 cavemen. So go out and do your part, or the terrorists have won!

I’ve posted a lot of stuff today. Not so much in many different posts, but I did a lot to the Photos page. Somewhere along the way, I needed to look up the proper spelling of a specific location in the Star Wars universe, so I googled the spelling. One of the resulting entries was WOOKIEPEDIA!!! How awesome is that? I laughed out loud right there in the coffee shop, freaking out people next to me.

It was going to be awwwww CRAP! Pt.2 – Revenge of the Awesome, but there wasn’t enough room on the post title bar for that.
At any rate, today I went through my folders and images and re-installed my galleries. I put the images up with no captions, but as they say, “A picture is worth 483 words”, right? We’ll see if I go back through and re-caption each one or not. Certainly not tonight. At any rate, on the header bar above, click on Photos and check it out. Maybe you’ll see something you hadn’t before.

And of course, you’re expecting to hear all the gossip about what the hell was Danilo Di Luca thinking not using a TT bike on the final stage…how Denis Menchov ate crap with less than 1k to go and still won both the time trial AND the Giro overall….but no. Not today.
Tonight I was over at Brent and Kate’s, and we were watching the final stage when their beautiful daughter, Ruby, was able to show us her knowledge of Giro lore.
I apologize that the volume isn’t that high, since I recorded this with my cell phone, but you can hear her say ‘maglia rosa’ quite clearly.
I also apologize that the video isn’t embedded like videos from YouTube. I’ll work on that. Click to enjoy.
Editor’s note: Menchov DID NOT win the TT. And I knew that too. Couldn’t tell you why I wrote that, but I did. Eat it!

I was just looking for pics on my site and I found that when I last changed the look of the site, I did some stupid crap and lost all the image galleries that I’d posted.
CRAP!
I still have the pics, and in most cases I still have the image galleries saved as a whole, so I should have them back up shortly. I haven’t gotten out and shot with my camera lately, but I’ll get off my ass and do so, and post some of those when I get that rolling again.
As Wile E. Coyote would say, “Back to the ol’ drawing board…”

While you sit there in your cubicle, making life easier for the next person who may push the papers that you’ve just affixed your signature to, there are others out there on the fringe making life better for us all by doing things that we never dreamed would be necessary.
I was emailed this little gem by Dave W, who has found out that the fine folks at Qualcomm are doing just that. Imagining a better world for all of us.

Extra special awesome happy funtime thanks to Dudeman for going 100 miles out of his way to deliver the Nutter Butter Beater to me yesterday. I tuned it up this morning, and…oh my goodness. I know it’s only a $10 bike, but I’m such a bike snob that I’m going to be required to purchase the following items to get it to Satisfactory Condition: new brake calipers, as the ones on the bike are so utterly worthless that it feels as though you actually SPEED UP when you grab a handfull of brakes (yeah – not so much to my liking) and a new pair of shifters – these ones are the Hi-Tech Thumb-Breaking models and require so much torque to shift gears that I may not be able to hitch-hike ever again. After that, if I feel particularly uppity, I might replace the BB/cranks, and possibly the seatpost/saddle combo, but those aren’t necessary for Living The Good Life, as I intend to do on this sweet ride.
The only thing left is to give it a good name. No, I’m not going to give it a human name like stupid people are prone to giving their cars/trucks (sorry to everybody I know, since EVERYBODY I know gives STUPID human names to their vehicles)… No, I mean some kind of play on the Nutter Butter theme. Some possible names include: Nutter Butter Blaster, Nutter Butter Beater, Nabisco Speeder, The Smoothie…you get the idea. If you feel like commenting and leaving possible names for me, please do so. In the meantime, bask in the glory that is The Nutter Butter Piece of Crap!

If you have been anywhere near me in the last 3 months, you’re probably sick and tired of hearing about Mastodon. Obviously they’re my new favorite band, and I’ve been listening to their new disc, Crack the Skye, non-stop ever since it came out in March. Or, rather, ever since my special-edition pre-ordered copy showed up 2 weeks after the release date, but that’s another topic for another time!
ANYWAY…what is this alert that concerns the righteously killer band from Atlanta called Mastodon, you ask? Well, they’re going to be on Letterman on Friday the 15th. !!! But…but that’s THIS Friday!
Yes it is. Stay at home on Friday night and watch Letterman at 11:30pm if you live on the West Coast.
That’s all.
