I’ve entertained well-fed people from the east coast at Victoria’s and they were really impressed, so it’s pretty good.

that is just downright ridiculous. The next one is even worse:

An acquaintance of mine recently had visitors from the East Coast spend some time with her here in Appleton. The visitors were joking about what they would be able to find for dinner in a Midwest town like Appleton, thinking that Pizza Hut would the most elevated cuisine that our “flyover village” might offer.

as always, click on the picture below to open a magnified version. Since we are also cousins through John Gorham (1620/1 – 1655/7) and Desire Howland (1623 – 1683), got us a shared ancestor chart of that one too. And don’t forget Robert Hinckley (abt 1537 – 1606), from whom we are also both descended. Johnny was from his first marriage, and we came from wife #2 Katherine Leese (abt 1551 – 1605). got a chart of that one too

half of ‘em are normal ones, and the other half are awesome. Supposed to be a game because each normal one has an evil twin and the only way to tell ‘em apart is by tasting. I’ve eaten canned dog food, toothpaste, and prolly boogers (although it’s been a while and I don’t remember how boogers taste), but the rest are new flavors to me. None of ‘em are delicious, but the yellow ones are the most disgusting. I highly recommend everyone go out and get a pack of these jelly beans. Totally worth the $1.79 or whatever they cost

anywhoo . . . Miami is getting all this “Big Three” talk, but these Celtics have the same number of combined MVP awards (2) and WAY more combined all star appearances

Shaq = 15
KG = 12
Ray Allen = 9
Paul Pierce = 8
J O’Neal = 6
Rajon Rando = 1

total all star appearances = 51

as always, click on the lil’ picture to see an bigger one that you can then magnify if you wanna read all the names

or just watch it on the internet

the movie ain’t really all that funny. The premise is hilarious and it certainly has its moments, but mostly you just feel sorrow and empathy for the old ladies and rubes being swindled out of what lil’ money they have. Gotta respect dude for his honesty though. And he is giving the people their money’s worth

after you’ve watched the movie and given yourself a few minutes, read this article

hating homosexuals and date raping teenage boys you’ve lured to exotic locales is quite another sin altogether. I hope Eddie Long is innocent, but regardless of whatever happened with all them dudes who keep bringing charges against him, his entertainment value is legit and he has been a very positive influence on the lives of many

influenced many, and maybe “touched” a few. HA HA HA HA HA

total = 9/43, 21%

if you thought Cousin Dubya’s 2000 election victory over Al Gore was scandalous and fraught with controversy, shoulda seen Cousin Rutherford’s 1876 win over Samuel J. Tilden

only spent a coupla hours goofin’, but this one might be my favorite

that victory speech I wrote for Kobe a coupla weeks ago is looking pretty damn awesome though ain’t it? (scroll down to the television section)

his grandson, Cousin Maury was another non-conformist Texas dude who contributed a word to the English language. He was a Congressman and mayor of San Antonio who kept encuring the wrath of political parties who didn’t like his independence. He wasn’t a big fan of bureaucrats or their jargon and wrote a memo banning “goddledygook language” and warning that “anyone using the words activation or implementation will be shot.”

maverick and gobbledygook = well done Texas cousins, well done
