 OR
how I survive the holidays

    1 cup of dark brown sugar
    1 cup (2 sticks) butter
    1 cup of granulated sugar
    4 large eggs
    2 cups of dried fruit, such as dried cranberries or raisins
    1 tsp baking soda
    1 tsp salt
    1 tsp fresh lemon juice
    1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts or pecans
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 bottle Jose Cuervo Tequila (silver or gold, as desired)

 
Sample the Cuervo to check quality.
 
Take a large bowl, check the Cuervo again, to be sure it is of the highest quality, pour one level cup and drink. Turn on the electric mixer. Beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl.
 
Add one teaspoon of sugar. Beat again. At this point it’s best to make sure the Cuervo is still OK, try another cup just in case.
 
Turn off the mixerer thingy. Break 2 leggs and add to the bowl and chuck in the cup of dried fruit.  Pick the frigging fruit off floor.
 
Mix on the turner. If the fried druit gets stuck in the beaterers just pry it loose with a drewscriver.
 
Sample the Cuervo to check for tonsisticity.
 
Next, sift two cups of salt, or something.  Check the Jose Cuervo.
 
Now shift the lemon juice and strain your nuts. Add one table. Add a spoon of sugar, or somefink. Whatever you can find.
 
Grease the oven. Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall over.  Don’t forget to beat off the turner.
 
Finally, throw the bowl through the window, finish the Cose Juervo and make sure to put the stove in the dishwasher.

If you kill a River and the people who were part of that River died as an indirect result of that action…is it murder?

Just Wondering.

Why is New Mexico Boss?

Because they have the Spaceballs to run ads like this:

And they have events like

This little bit o’ fun  was a challange from Kitty:

So here is your assignment for today, dear readers. Find a song that inspires you to write something, whether it gives you an idea for a script or just puts you into a better frame of mind 

Babe, you’re getting closer
The lights are goin’ dim
The sound of your breathin’
Has made the mood I’m in
All of my resistance
Is lying on the floor
Taking me to places
I’ve never been before….

When I write my stories  that I like to think of as “Grave Tales” I always reach for my Elvis tunes and I play this one first…actually I listen to it a lot when I’m writing.

It’s been the ‘back beat’ for stories like

Way Down Lyrics (Elvis Presley)

Babe, you’re getting closer
The lights are goin’ dim
The sound of your breathin’
Has made the mood I’m in
All of my resistance
Is lying on the floor
Taking me to places
I’ve never been before

 

Ooh, and I can feel it,
Feel it, feel it, feel it

 

Way down where the music plays
Way down like a tidal wave
Way down where the fires blaze
Way down, down, way, way on down

 

Ooh, my head is spinnin’
You got me in your spell,
A hundred magic fingers
On a whirling carousel
The medicine within me
No doctor could prescribe
Your love is doing something
That I just can’t describe

 

Ooh, and I can feel it,
Feel it, feel it, feel it

 

Way down where the music plays
Way down like a tidal wave
Way down where the fires blaze
Way down, down, way, way on down

Hold me again,
Tight as you can
I need you so,
Baby, let’s go

 

Way down where it feels so good
Way down where I hoped it would
Way down where I never could
Way down, down, way, way on down

I Am SO Forgiven

Commuter Hell Revisited

Yesterday some of the buses were late.

One woman stopped my bus, got on and screeched at our driver…and I’m talking SCREECHED at how inconvenienced she was, how there was no reason ” no reason at all ” she made it clear to us all for why SHE should be standing there and for why her bus was half an hour late.

 Screechy The Snot Nosed Banshee would at least get home that night and she will live to screech the next time her bus is late.

This is the reason the traffic was backed up.

Do you think Screechy cares?

I didn’t think so either.

Man found dead along Interstate 5

Man found dead along Interstate 5

MOUNTLAKE TERRACE, Wash. — Police here say the death of a man whose body was found near Interstate 5 on Wednesday morning is suspicious.

Department of Transportation workers found the body inside a sleeping bag just a few feet away from the southbound lanes of I-5 at the 220th Street exit.

Police said several details, including the location of the body, lead them to believe the man could have been murdered.

“The location of where the body was at – about ten feet off the fog line, from the freeway, in a sleeping bag – it’s not a normal area where a transient would sleep,” said Trooper Keith Leary.

And state troopers said the man did not seem like a transient as he was well-groomed. The man, who appeared to be in his 40s, did not have any identification.

Police said the body was found with duct tape wrapped around the outside of the sleeping bag near the man’s feet.

“It would be very difficult for an individual to do that to themselves and tuck them(selves) into a sleeping bag,” Mountlake Terrace Police Chief Scott Smith.

Smith believes the body likely hadn’t been at the location for long, but said it appeared as if someone had tried to hide it.

“Did have some debris, leaves and branches covering it. So it would not have been readily visible to some coming off the off-ramp,” he said.

There were no obvious signs of trauma to the body and an autopsy will be needed to determine the cause of death.

Police are looking through missing person reports to see if they could find a description that matches the found man.

“It’s a bit unusual for us to investigate anything like this, but it is what it is and we do what we have to do,” Smith said.

It’d Taste Better With Ice Cream

I hate Shopping Malls, I hate ” Black Friday ” I hate the way NPR ran an entire segment on why you should not over- eat during the Holidays ( because they care about your health ) but they sell air time to Wal Mart- you know the company that treats the communities they infest the same way locusts treat the fields they infest.

Most of all

I hate the way the Holidays are all about

Shopping Malls and Parking Spaces.
