Ron sent me this about the LSM propaganda arm of the Dimocrat Party making a big fuss about Scott Walker not having a college degree.
Corinne Brown of Gradulate the Gata has a degree from Florida. Remember Jackson-Lee, while touring NASA asked if the Mars Rover was anywhere near the flag that the astronauts planted.
Bill Gates, on the other hand, doesn’t have a degree either.
Today starts Week 6. Here is what has happened so far.
Last Tuesday, a dude showed up to do the remainder of the plumbing. He finished the shower, which looks great. All we need is the shower doors and that part of the project will be complete. When he went to do the plumbing for the vanity sinks, he discovered that the granite guys had only drilled one hole instead of the requisite three holes. The granite counter tops had been installed the previous Wednesday. The project manager didn’t bother to stop by and inspect the work. So, instead of finding out on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or Monday, it was not discovered until Tuesday, almost a week later. The granite guys showed up on Saturday and drilled the holes and a guy is here today installing the plumbing. The project manager came a few hours later and he found a spot that was supposed to be granite and isn’t. Major league fuck up!
On Saturday, I asked him about the mirrors. “What mirrors?” he responded with a deer in the headlights look and then asked what kind of mirrors.
“Beveled glass mirrors”, I responded. He then measured for mirrors. Don’t know when they’ll arrive.
When the schedule called for installing the lights, he went to Lowes to get them only to find out that they needed to be special ordered. I told this incompetent boob that I wanted all the ducks in a row before this project started and that meant the availability of all the parts.
The cabinets came in without knobs. I talked to him this morning about that and he tried to lay the blame on me by telling me he had told me to go on Home Depot’s or Lowe’s website to find what I wanted. I did that this morning and left him a voice mail with the part numbers. I wonder if they will need to be special ordered? This is the third time I mentioned that. The first time he told me that I had not picked them out when I ordered the cabinets but he would call the cabinet dudette which he never did.
Maybe I should call this the Great Master Bathroom of Dunwoody Clusterfuck. Needless to say, I will not do any more business with this company.
Update: I contacted the owner of the company who is now here. He brought cabinet knobs with him. He sez he’ll make every thing right. We’ll see.
Ron sent me an email that attributes the following to Clint Eastwood. I doubt that he said it, but it is possible. Most of these internet quotes are not from the people they are attributed to. I’m sure this is but another one.
The trouble with quotes on the Internet is that you never know if they are genuine. — Abraham Lincoln
As I enjoy my twilight years, I am often struck by the inevitability that the
party must end. There will be a clear, cold morning when there isn’t any
“more.” No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate together,
no more phone calls just to chat. It seems to me that one of the
important things to do before that morning comes, is to let every
one of your family and friends know that you care for them by finding
simple ways to let them know your heartfelt beliefs and the guiding
principles of your life so they can always
say, “He was my friend, and I know where he stood.”So, just in case I’m gone tomorrow, please know this: I voted against that
incompetent, lying, flip-flopping, insincere, double-talking, radical
socialist, terrorist excusing, bleeding heart, narcissistic, scientific
and economic moron currently in the White House!Participating in a gun buy-back program because you think that
criminals have too many guns is like having yourself
castrated because you think your neighbors have too many kids.
Amen!
Today’s pun is from Ken.
A Polack and a Czech saved their money and came to America for a grand vacation. After a few weeks of travel, they found themselves in Yellowstone National Park. Fascinated by the stark nature of the wilderness, they choose to look into camping. They approached a ranger, he advised them of a wilderness camping area but warned them that it was the peak of the grizzle feeding season and they would need to exercise extreme caution.
Undaunted, the two hiked to a very remote campsite. They pitched their tent and settled in for the night. The next morning the same ranger made his usual inspection of the campsites on his ATV. When he came upon the campsite of the two adventurers, his eyes could not believe the destruction. Everything was torn up, blood stains everywhere, but no signs of the Polack and the Czech. Alarmed, the ranger went to enlist the help of another ranger.
After very few minutes of searching, the two rangers came upon two grizzles, one a male, the other a female, resting in the warm sun, seemingly totally content. Upon further examination of the two bears it was clear their paws, bibs and jowls were blood stained. One ranger said, “I guess those are the bears that got the two campers.” The second said, “Don’t be so sure, they may have feasted on an elk. They decided that they would need to kill the bears and inspect the contents of their stomachs. With two simultaneous perfect head shots, the female slumped in death, the male roamed for fifty feet, then fell over dead.
The two rangers split up, one working on the female, the other on the male. Soon the ranger working on the female shouted, “Here’s the Polack, looks like she swallowed him nearly whole.” After a minute or so the other ranger shouted back, “I can confirm that because … (more…)
