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.

Did you hear about the new "Playboy" for married men? It has the same centerfold every month.
How can you tell if a man is married? He steps out of the shower to pee.
A wife asked her husband "Honey, will you love me when I'm old, fat and ugly?" to which he replied "Yes, I do."
I'm a pessimistic optimist; I believe the glass is half full...of poop.

The shape of my life,
The goods in the meat,
The rare few good fortunes,
The times I've been beat.
It wasn't just chance,
Or the turn of the worm,
Nor the Luck o' the Irish:
'Twas the Luck o' the Sperm!

Yesterday I went to the doctor for my yearly physical. My blood pressure was high, my cholesterol was high, I'd gained some weight and I didn't feel so hot.
My doctor said eating right doesn't have to be complicated and it would solve my physical problems. He said just think in colors; fill your plate with bright colors; greens, yellows, reds, etc.
I went right home and ate an entire bowl of M&M's and sure enough, I felt better immediately. I never knew eating right could be so easy!
A man and a woman who had never met before, and were both married to other people, found themselves assigned to the same sleeping room on a trans-continental train.
Though initially embarrassed and uneasy over sharing a room, they were both very tired and fell asleep quickly, he in the upper bunk and she in the lower.
At 1:00 AM, the man leaned down and gently woke the woman saying, "Ma'am, I'm sorry to bother you, but would you be willing to reach into the closet to get me a second blanket? I'm awfully cold."
"I have a better idea," she cooed . "Just for tonight, let's pretend that we're married."
"Wow! That's a great idea!" he exclaimed.
"Good," she replied. "Get your own fucking blanket."
After a moment of silence, he farted.
Here’s how to understand the Creation Museum: imagine, if you will, a load of horseshit. And we’re not talking just your average load of horseshit; no, we’re talking colossal load of horsehit. An epic load of horseshit. The kind of load of horseshit that has accreted over decades and has developed its own sort of ecosystem, from the flyblown chunks at the perimeter, down into the heated and decomposing center, generating explosive levels of methane as bacteria feast merrily on vintage, liquified crap. This is a Herculean load of horseshit, friends, the likes of which has not been seen since the days of Augeas.
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.
Re: Best Place for Barbecue Ribs?
(in Anchorage Foodies)
Y'know, I was trying to remember the name of that place. I've never been there and should give them a try.
Do they have HAMBURGERS????

Things that make you go "Whaaaa???"
(blog entry)
I heard two things today that made me wonder just how stoned some ad agencies are.
1) On the radio, I heard an ad for a "Dove Nutria Moisture" beauty bar. In reality, the product is "Dove Nutrium" but on the air it sure didn't sound that way. ...

Re: Best Place for Barbecue Ribs?
(in Anchorage Foodies)
Wayne's Texas BBQ was pretty good, especially for brisket, but alas, they are no more.
I do a pretty good set of BBQ beef ribs that are so tender they can be turned into a "pulled beef" sandwich that becomes summertime in your mouth. However, ...

Awwww, isn't that cute? Tori wanted to make macaw-human hybrid babies!!!
The rule of thumb for egg laying is to let the hen keep laying until she is done. When is she done? Usually, if five full 24-hour periods pass from the laying of the last ...

Re: Criminalizing Anime
(in Alaskan Political Parrot Tree)
I think their focus is not on the media, but on the message. Other than their obvious goal of wanting to be everyone's nanny and Thought Police, there is the overarching concern about any promotion of underage sexuality, or sex between an adult an...

1) On the radio, I heard an ad for a "Dove Nutria Moisture" beauty bar. In reality, the product is "Dove Nutrium" but on the air it sure didn't sound that way. When I stopped laughing, I had to wonder just how many of those furry aquatic rodents they had to squeeze to make each beauty bar special. What were they thinking?!?!

(The information is 9 years old, but I'll bet the ratios haven't changed all that much)

If we could shrink the earth's population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all the existing human ratios remaining the same, it would look something like the following. There would be:
57 Asians
21 Europeans

From a spaceweather.com e-mail announcement:
"A photographer in Florida has taken extraordinary photos of space shuttle Atlantis and the Hubble Space Telescope passing together in front of the sun. The shuttle's silhouette outlined by solar fire is a must-see. Shortly after the photos were taken, the shuttle's robotic arm reached out, grappled Hubble, and drew the great telescope into the shuttle's cargo bay, where it is now being serviced by NASA astronauts. Visit spaceweather.co...

After a lengthy delay, I'm back on my bike for the daily commute to work. Each day I ride is an improvement in my woefully ignored fitness and a few gallons less gas poured through my vehicle's engine.
For those of you with parrots, you will find the next part amusing because it happened to someone else, not you. For those without parrots, substitute "two-year-old brat" for each parrot reference.
Back in February, I discovered that unknown members of my Blue-Front Amazon gang of four ha...

It's no joke. Ben & Jerry temporarily renamed their Butter Pecan ice cream "Yes Pecan!"
www.benjerry.com/features/yespecan/
Of course, not to let a good thing slide by, contributors to www.reddit.com (and probably other blogspaces as well) asked others to fill-in-the-blank for an ice cream flavor commemorating George W. Bush
Here are some of the responses (feel free to add your own!):
