Bad Drivers.

this is a personal favorite i always look forward to hear. Everyone has a differnt excuse reason or even group they always blame it on. Everyone says it at one time in there life.

“That [ insert group or person here ]  can’t drive”.

its great. everyone does it i just love to hear where people point fingers or push blame on people its always different for everyone. Why do i bring this up? well yesterday was the real first snow we had one of those perfect snow where the flakes are the size of golf balls and you just want to sit in your living room with the blinds up turn out all the lights and just watch it fall down. (isn’t that a beautiful mental pic i just painted) BUT. i wasn’t in my living room i was driving home. so scratch that picture and a free way full of cars that have a sign on top every vehicle that says STUDENT DRIVER. it was horrible it was like everyone was looking out there window and seeing this TERROR falling from the skies WHAT THE HELL IS THIS WHITE STUFF!! AHHH its hitting my car must try to avoid hitting it. must slow down to idle speed!! seriously we live in ohio we get snow just as much as we get sun. i would think everyone would remember what its like to drive in it. cause all of you with ohio plates should know how. its just like this everytime it snows its like a bright new day for everyone of you and you have no idea what the hell this stuff is falling from the sky. for those of you that do not know cause yesterday is forgotten when you look up and see this….

 its called snow no it can’t hurt you. let me throw in a bit of science in for you.  it is actually a form of rain its just frozen…yeah…i know it was a shock for me when i first found out too (when i was 4 yrs old.) Seriously though i know i am just using this one example snowing but its for everything rain, sleet, snow, fog, dew, ice, sun. i just find it funny sometimes that people freak out when there is weather. I some times think that it starts with one person too. someone freaks out like ahh its snowing then it just snow balls (no pun intended) the person behind that person slows and so forth then you have this huge cluster of everyone slowing and freaking out cause everyone else is cause its snowing. . . . . sigh. but everyone blames everyone else you might have heard or said some of the following:

Ah they just can’t drive in this feakin state what never seen rain before!

This snow is not sticking its just falling GO!!!

Welcome to OHIO! now go back to FLORIDA!

now this one is my personal favorite blaming bad driving on gender and age first the age:

out of the way grandpa learn to drive on your own time!

then my absolute favorite:

Oh its a woman driving!

i think this is my favorite because i hear it from women sometimes. its like calling some one four eyes while wearing glasses. i hear my mom saying this one all the time “Stupid Woman Driver!” HA HA i know hilarious. there is nothing funnier in my opinion. so here is the short and sweet of it!

 no one can drive everyone screws up every-once and a while and when you do there is that person behind you putting you in that category and and then when someone screws up and cuts you off or something you go put them in that category hence no one can drive. end rant.

Snail Mail

So i mentioned this in a previous post i have a really good friend that now has gone off to the navy. i just got a letter from him from basic training. i plan on writing him about once a week just to keep him up today on everything going on and plus i think of him more as a brother than as a friend. So i just want to write him let him know people are still thinking of him even though he is gone. but now i find myself in a position that is weird to be in. I am writing letters. in the society we live in where everything is sent in an instant it seems so strange to give a message to the postman and then it will be sent to my friend and he will have it in a few days. if i said that a decade ago. the response would be ” So ” or ” Yeah ” its amazing how everything is just at a click of a button now. its seems like your being ignored if someone doesn’t respond to your e-mail within a few hours of sending it. another thing i am really cheating i am not writing anything. i am typing it and printing it out. cause i rely so much on spell check i don’t know how long it would take me to write something and make sure all the words are spelled right. and plus i type way faster than i can write. but on the other side my friend doesn’t have that he has paper and pencil so i can write two pages in the time it takes him to write a half page. the really unfortunate part is i have to read it. he has the worst handwriting & grammar out of anyone i know and if you know me that has to be bad cause my grammar is not the greatest. it just feels like writing is becoming so obsolete anymore. honestly can you remember when you actually sat down and wrote something out by hand that wasn’t a grocery list. i know some people still write more than they type but i just keep thinking about in my childs life time they will have more typing classes than classes on how to do cursive wirting. Which is such a crock by the way. all i remeber when i was in elementy school is my teach saying how we need to know how to write in cursive. everyone uses it and you have to know it go get by in society. WRONG. last time i used cursive was on a spelling test. give you an idea here were some of the words

berry

purple

judge

sofa

yeah. its just crazy on how we are switching into a society that relys on you being able to type fast not how many words you can dictate on paper. i just wonder how long it will take to make it obsolete to write. think about it its not a crazy idea. do you have a blackberry or iPhone. do you write all your little reminders or notes on paper or it. yeah. its going in that direction its just crazy to think about. so i will keep typing my letters and keep trying to decipher my friends hand writing.

Week of Hate! Bonus Day.

I have one more thing that i just hate that i had to write about. 

Pointless ribbon magnets.

Ribbon Magnets. They started out for a good cause to raise awareness and make money for a good cause. or to support someone in a distant land or something like that. Some how they got blown way off course. Then they started to make things that didn’t really even support anythying they became pointless.

ok so the following below are expectable.

These DO have a point.

 

These do NOT have a point at all.

Ok so let me just put this out here for everyone. I don’t care that you love your Bichon. But i am glad that you are willing to mock something with a cause to prove how much you love Mr. Woofie. WHY!?!? Once again i am completely stumped and have no idea why people do this. I have seen so many of these dumb magnets on the back of someone’s car. A ribbon that is in camo that says GIT R’ DONE. sigh…. this is why i automatically get made fun of for living in the country. I think this fad just started for a good cause or to stand for something like i said and just spread like wild fire and people really forgot what they are even for. kinda like the rubber band arm bracelets every ones got on on but none of them anymore say LIVESTRONG. and don’t know what they represent. Same thing something that started good and ended pure evil. But once something starts someone has to take it. Strip it. and Remake in the most generic way. in other words WELCOME TO AMERICA!! i don’t have much to rant about this i just wanted you to realize how much i hate these stupid magnets.

Thank You for hating this week with me.

Now That’s What i Call a Tractor!

Good Old Boy, Rough Neck, Country Boy…. Call it what you will I am one I don’t go to the existent of calling my self a redneck or hillbilly cause well those are the people that think wal-mart is part of the government.  I have been in the country my whole life i live and breath it. I am not your typical Country Boy of course due to the profession i am in i do more than just sit around a tire fire talking about there cousins. Truth be known i really don’t sit around tire fires…..yeah. well being a Country boy I have to admit that i do indulge in some of the sporting events. These are not what you would think though but yes NASCAR is one of those events but i hate nascar. what i am talking about is Tractor Pulls. yes good old fashion lets see how much that tractor can pull till it stops Country Sport. i just w For those of you that have never heard of or seen Tractor Pulls its my delight to tell you all about them.  The basic premise of Tractor pulls is they hook the tractor up to a sled that at a slight angled track on it that track is a large amount of weight when they start pulling it the box of weight moves toward the top of the sled and the weight of that starts to make the sled dig in the ground so they are not only pulling all that weight but also pulling against the earth. the goal is to pull 300 feet. that is what they call a full pull. but if they pull past 300 they will either do a pull of at the end. which means they add more weight and pull again or they will just do a floating finish which means who ever pulled the farthest wins. but you might as what fun is seeing a tractor pull a sled of weight. OH well thats the one thing i didn’t mention you to you yet. When i say tractor well some of these the only thing they have in common with a tractor is the frame and wheels. People will put any kind of engine on these things can range from a Modified Tractor engine to a Jet Engine i have see ones with 4 hemi’s on it before amazing seeing such power pulling such weight is awesome. its a great thing to see if you really like to see raw power.

other country sporting events:

• monster truck rallys
• crash derbys
• rodeo’s
• and anything with a gun or fishing pole.

Wal-Mart…High Class Society. Always.

So christina and I went to Wal-Mart last night. we don’t make a habit of going there we hardly ever go actually. but when i do go its always an adventure. right from the start you get there trying to find parking. actually we just try to get to the first empty spot and park. but on the way to the back as everyone has always done sees someone getting to their car and waits. but people at wal-mart will just stop for 10 min waiting for one person to get out of there spot. even though in this scenario  the man was just getting something out of his car to go right back in to the super saving extravaganza. i love how people are so lazy that they will wait 10 min just to save 30 feet of walking. so we get in eventually and its like a white trash emporium i only say white trash cause i saw one man with a white trash tee-shirt that i found amusing. its also the easiest way to spot; Mullets, fanny packs, and the ever so popular cut off tee-shirt that you can see the persons side all the way down to his waist.  but this trip i was mildly surprised to not see any children crying or crying and being beat’n. but we didn’t go near toys so don’t worry there was a child in the store some where gett’n a wooopin some where. i think thats a rule or something if you as a parent don’t see a kid crying or being hit you have to grab yours and do it. to keep the natural order of course. so we got our item we just needed to grab and then headed to the fast check out. which is the best when you really get to hear people for who they are. . . idiots. but everytime im there i always see the baby that is in its diaper and a stained shirt that almost looks like they painted it. and the best part it just stares at you and doesn’t blink but if it does it does it when you do. we paid for our item then we started for the door. . . then the best part i hear some one complaining about there child or something and hear. “I don’t care what they think its my child and ill do what i want to IT.” classic. just plain classic.

Something I Don’t Get.

not ebay itself but the certain kind of thinking behind it sometimes at least with certain people. its the people that buy things that are right down the street at a store from them. say i want a toothbrush yeah i can go to CVS or Wall-greens and get one. OR.. i can go online order one and have it in 5-7 business days. to some of us that is a no brainer ill be out any way and ill pick one up. NO! that is not how people are starting think now. now its becoming more and more popular to buy things from the internet and to me its making people more and more lazy i don’t really get some aspects of it. my wife she love to buy things off the internet but its things that she can’t find or she finds it for a better deal than where we can get it down the street these are the only exceptions that i think make sense. i can save money Sweet. i can find this here awesome. but i don’t get oh just what i needed a pancake which mary’s face on it. honestly i don’t understand the point of somethings people spend money on. i get when companies get on the stupid wagon and buy a chocolate chip cookie that looks like Gandhi. cause you know what they just bought Advertising. the whole world knows that this little company just bought this cookie. Oh who is that company. smart business. but people that have to buy grocery’s over the internet i don’t get its right around the freaking block. i don’t understand if its the fact that they can so they do or cause they are sooo freaking lazy. i sway with the laziness with this society. i think thats what it all boils down too.

Laziness.

Snap! Crackle! What the?!

i just wrote yesterday about how i don’t understand how new parents today always have to be better than there parents.

Blog Link

this morning brought me to a different point that i want to talk about. i woke up this morning and when straight to the cupboard grabed my Coco-Crispies opened my new box and started to pour those glorious Cocoa Nuggets into the bowl and ‘Plop’ my toy. i just don’t get all the things that have changed since i was a child the toy was never on top it was always in the very bottom of the box. and now BAM here you go no effort to have a toy. i hate that i always had to wait i could never dig thru the cereal to get what i wanted the glorious toy that will break in 3 days time. but i know with every child when you where in that cereal isle you only looked for the coolest toy and then said “no i really like grape nuts its not because it comes with the Switch blade comb i swear.” but now kids get the Indiana Jones Glowing Spoon in the first bowl. things just get handed out to kids now and they don’t even have to wait to get the magical toy you have been waiting for weeks for. no its just open it up and grab it then forget the cereal i hate grape nuts anyway my mom should of known better. for our generation we had to eat that crap to get to the prize. I’m not even going to go into the quality or size of prizes when we where kids. if i did i would have to refer to the Horrible down grade of Cracker Jack toys. there is not enough time in the day for me to rant about that slap in the face.
