Tribal Wisdom About Me

July 23, 2007
One of my favorite bird people in the world, and everyone knows I love bird people. Witty and intelligent, generous, kind and empathetic, side-splittingly funny. If Garry's at the party, you know my happy ass is having a good time.

And he's not afraid of macaws.

ParrotHead has very nice manners: he doesn't nip at strangers and he only poops a little bit when he LOLs.

about me
I'm the frustrated comedian, class clown, who likes to make people laugh, and finds life generally funny, even the dark moments, which gets me uninvited to funerals. I can be a sarcastic smart-ass as well, and in a text-based environment, this trait can be easily misunderstood as general assholiness. Be patient with me; I'm not generally a cruel person, unless you really deserve it, and then, I'm a total prick.

Warning: May Contain Nuts

George Carlin died of a heart attack about an hour ago. He was 71.

I "discovered" George Carlin over 30 years ago and his humor helped shape some of my attitudes and ways of looking at things. Yes, he was vulgar at times, yes he would fire off "dirty words" until they started sounding pointless, but I think that was the idea. He liked giving people a "mental hotfoot" (as he called it and as I still do) and in his comedic way, it took a bit of verbal cannon fire to get folks to wake up, tak... read more

Apria Healthcare in Anchorage, Alaska, has now taken steps to squarely place themselves in the sights of my Pissed Off Consumer blog.

My wife has a number of chronic medical maladies, some of which call for a special, electrically adjustable bed. Her current adjustable bed, almost eight years old, recently gave up the ghost when structural tubing in the lifting mechanism gave way at a weld.

My insurance company had no problem replacing this well-used durable medical equipment and so we ... read more

Space Weather News for April 27, 2008

STRANGE SOLAR FLARE: No sunspots? No problem. Yesterday the blank sun unleashed a solar flare without the usual aid of a sunspot. At 1408 UT on April 26th, Earth-orbiting satellites detected a surge of X-rays registering B3.8 on the "Richter scale" of solar flares. That's a relatively minor flare; nevertheless, the blast sent a "solar tsunami" shock wave ripp... read more

Last Saturday afternoon I went to a showing at Out North of award winning advertisments from the Britsh Television Advertising Awards (BTAA).

They played about seven minutes of ads from last year's winners because some of this year's winning commercials made fun of last year's winners. All in all, it was a hoot as well as an emotional slam.

Most of the humor was something even a Yank could understand, but some -- these are Award Winning ads in Britain, mind you -- were nonsensical. Must... read more

Back on March 1, 2008, I embarked on a project to see if I could place random words in one of my public blog entries and have the item show up in Google.

It worked!

Today, I searched for various words from the first paragraph of my March 1 blog entry. A link to the blog showed up as the #9 item on the Googl... read more
