Socialist Media

The Wig says that my FB posts and my blog are melding together, or that I'm re-using material, or something to that effect. I'm not sure of the exact reference because I really don't listen very closely when we are on the phone. The guy rarely has anything interesting to say. But he is right in this case. I really want this damn guitar.

I sent the link to my bud The Wolv because he is a cars and guitars guy. I haven't had a response to my note or the nice career brochures I sent him a while back. Therefore I've decided to communicate with him via the blog because he's probably the only regular reader I got left. So bud, have you considered a career in medical coding and billing. If so, I got a brochure for you.

I had a dream the other night, which I shared with my siblings. In it, me and the old man were on a city bus. I was playing the role of his IT assistant while he gave a presentation to the patrons. He kicked it off by recording it with the little device I usually keep in the car to save the occasional mediocre idea I have for the blog. Dad was dressed in full Brooks Brothers regalia, which is what he wore every day for 18 years on that long walk to the library in Middletown. He also had slides, which we projected in the window that usually illustrates the bus route.

This was my brother's response:

"In "The Old Man and the Sea" I recall that the titular character dreamed of women when he was young, but now that he was old, he dreamed of lions. I think his dreams were a reflection of his simple and pure nature.

Draw your own conclusions corporate boy."

My sister tagged on that we were not a normal family. Amen sister.

DJ's News Feed

Now that the NCAA tournament is over, I can get back to posting sporadically.

Dr. Joe, Syracuse area native, was over last weekend and we watched the Orangemen go down to The Wolv's team. Tonight several of the FCMC boys are coming over for my famous brisket. Big fun every weekend at DJ's house.

Do you remember the good old days when only so much crap could fit in a newspaper? If you wanted the real drek, you had to venture into a seedier section of town to pick up a National Enquirer.

So the only question I have on this one is: Is it Gettysburg Address historic or Kim Kardashian getting pregnant historic?


I could have sworn there was only 3 or 4, tops.


It's good to have goals at a young age.


The Wig asked me what I could do with these two gems. Not a damn thing Wig. I got nothing. But I do plan to stop wearing bras.



I will leave out the links regarding the guy in China who put up an eel up his butt and the teenager that has only eaten ramen for 13 years.

I'll close with a couple pics.

Awww! What a cute tyrant!
