4-20-09 UPDATE: WEEKEND BEER-FEST AIDES SCRUFFYNESS!!
New Pic Here:
GO WINGS!!!
They say a watched beard never boils... er sumthin' like that... what do y'all think?
I really need to get a life. :-)
And yet more growage... sort of.... Am I even trying here? :-P
Damnit! JoeLeeThree was right about the nose hairs! :-)
One Team Down, Three to go! Go Wings!! Happy Kenny Yay!!!
Ok... This not having working internet at home crap is pissing me off!!!
Anyways... another weekend has come and gone (down the hatch, 12 ounces at a time)... New growth sighed... but first... this was too funny to pass up:

ken \KEN\, noun:
<!-- wotd="ken" -->1. Perception; understanding; knowledge.
2. The range of vision.
3. View; sight.
"So we are predisposed -- if not preprogrammed -- to accept tales of animals who display human motives, understanding, reason, and intentions. It takes a far greater imagination to conceive the possibility that a dog's mental life may assume a form that is simply beyond our ken.
-- Stephen Budiansky, If a Lion Could Talk"
And what a sight this "Ken" is... eh?
Now... I know what y'all are thinking:
Hmmm... Well anyways...I've been away too long... I missed my home... But hey, work stuff and all...
No! I haven't been watching porn at my desk!
.... All that often I mean... No, I've been working... sorting through the inventory around here..
... checking the fine print on our business documents...
... and in my spare time, trying to get some six-pack abs...
... Yep... that's about all of it... Ok... enough FOD time... back to work Kenny!
Dammit!

And I finally get to log in for a brief moment... AND I'M STARING AT REBA!?!?!? W to the F-Dizzle yo!
........
Ok... can you tell work + Lack of FOD has made me a tad loonier than normal?
Needless to say... I haven't forgot you all... I jsut don't have the free time to FOD-U-Late at work right now... And most nights find me so hammered from my Post-Work-Vent session that I can't remember my own name, let alone some alleged "Screen Name".... And the password line is S.O.L. .....
So, until stability returns to my desk... or I say "Fuuuuuuuuckit!!!".... I'll be away a tad longer...
At least, until NHL playoffs begin... That's right Mr. Perron... The Bet is on.... may the best (read: Red Wingyest) team win....
Peace Love, and Kudos to al... hell... make it All :-)

I know... It would be nice if I actually, you know, came up with my own content once in a while....
... But when I saw this, it made me think of all the funny Canadian Stupidity Vs. American Stupidity jokes/blogs/caps we've shared here... and I needed to share this...
Proud day for all of us here in the good old U.S of A. ... eh?

I find myself often familiar, or at least aware, of the word used by dictionary.com, but today's word had me so intrigued... I had to share it with y'all...
spoonerism \SPOO-nuh-riz-uhm\, noun:
<!-- wotd="spoonerism" -->The transposition of usually initial sounds in a pair of words.
Some examples:
We all know what it is to have a half-warmed fish ["half-formed wish"] inside us.
A well-boiled icicle ["well-oiled bicycle"].
It is kisstomary to cuss ["customary to kiss"] the bride.
Is the bean dizzy ["dean busy"]?
When the boys come back from France, we'll have the hags flung out ["flags hung out"]!
Let me sew you to your sheet ["show you to your seat"].
Spoonerism comes from the name of the Rev. William Archibald Spooner (1844-1930), a kindly but nervous Anglican clergyman and educationalist. All the above examples were committed by (or attributed to) him.
