I resolve not to

Now where was I? Oh yeah, The Holidays are here and life is still good – lest you forget.

I can’t believe people bake without one of there things. It’s amazing! It’s so pretty – gloss cinnamon colored. It purrs along like a culinary kitten sleeping in a ball of warm rising dough. The bowl raises and lowers to meet the paddle, dough hook, or wire whisk... I can add many lively attachments to make pasta, grind meat or veggies, among other things. It’s simplicity of design and function. It was only $149.00. It’s my KitchenAid 450 watt Professional Stand Mixer and I love it! Good thing its baking season or we’d have way too many cookies sitting around with nowhere to go.

Should any New Years Resolutions be more meaningful now that this pirate has hit 40? Hell I don’t even make resolutions, should I really start now?

Nah…

Why bother?

I still don’t smoke.

I still drink – get over it.

I still drive too fast on highways – get to the right lane and keep outta my way.

My music is still too loud – but so are the kids.

If looking at pretty girls is wrong I don’t want to be right.

I still appreciate each day – not just survive them, but REALLY focus and appreciate.

I try to learn something new every day.

I think art is it’s own justification.

I never learned to type and don't yet want to.

I AM teaching myself how to play guitar – so far so good.

I still curse – that’s why God gave us those words. (but not in front of the kids, I’m not an animal) If you don’t like profanity then don’t hang around after I cut myself with a table saw.



Nah – no resolutions…like I said before Life is good.

Merry Christmas - deal with it.

"Merry Christmas! That's right, Merry Christmas. Whether you're Christian, Jewish, Muslim, agnostic, pagan, barbarian or whatever, Merry Christmas!

It's what most of us say in this country come this time of year. It's about who we are, where we are and where we've been. And all the namby-pamby, little sensitive darlings among us who can't handle this verbal assault on their delicate senses should immediately begin seeking emergency psychiatric care."

Lou - Thanks for shedding a little rational light on the season.

Q4 RIP

Q4 is almost over – sweet. What’s that you say? Shouldn’t I be more excited Christmas is almost here? Well I am. However the prospects of Q4 and all the last minute half-baked initiatives that these people come up with ending shortly could be the best present ever.
I think the best job I ever held was mapping for the EPA. At the risk of pissing off some farmers who use way more chemicals than sense lets just say a whole lot of animals gained a ton of acreage at my hands. Feliz Navidad lil’ critters.

“Where do I work” you may ask?? Well I don’t think I can say, our legion of lawyers and their minions keep a pretty tight lid on any non-official PR. I guess I can’t blame them - But I’ll give you a clue…it starts with ‘QV’...
See? That wasn’t so hard.

Now where was I? Oh yeah, The Holidays are here and life is still good – lest you forget.

Worst blog parent - EVER

Yep – worst blog parent ever. Like I had anticipated – if this thing were a hamster it would have died by now. Oh well – basic disinterest and forgetting BOTH user name AND password pretty much kill any chance of a spontaneous post.
