I have to keep reminding the husband that his Harley cannot - and will not - turn into the same type of addiction that his snowmobiles did. Snowmobiles might be just like potato chips, but Harleys are not.

German Shepards

I played with two German Shepards today... reminds me of why I love those dogs. They just have a different feel; their nose, their ears, even their fur. There is just something about them.

I wonder if I wish hard enough if Saki will turn into one?

Whoopi Goldberg has no eyebrows and it bothers me

Hi and welcome to Wednesday Wickedness! We are like other memes in that we will ask you ten questions each and every Wednesday. But our little "twist" is that each week we will pick a famous person and pick ten of their quotes. Each of our questions will be based on the quotes. Got it? Great! Let's begin this week's meme!

Today we picked Whoopi Goldberg. Here's Wednesday Wickedness!

1. An actress can only play a woman. I'm an actor, I can play anything.
If you could experience any life form that was not a human of your sex, what would you pick and why?

A tiger. Just because I would like to tear the flesh off of a few people.
2. For some reason, all artists have self-esteem issues.
Do you have any self esteem issues? Do tell. (Since we all do.)
I do. I'll openly admit it. But I do agree that everyone does at some level. Those that don't are looked at as vain and kind of a holier than thou type.
3. I am the American Dream. I am the epitome of what the American Dream basically said. It said, you could come from anywhere and be anything you want in this country. That's exactly what I've done.
Do you believe in the American Dream or has it passed through time?
Yikes. Ok. I think there is an American dream, but I think it's become messed up. I think the Americans that stand on this ground now are getting pushed aside for those who want what we have. I just want to know why these people from India can come over with no money in their pockets and within 10 years own hotels and drive cars that are worth more than my house. Please explain THAT to me.
4. I don't have pet peeves, I have whole kennels of irritation.
It's been asked before, probably weekly, but what's irritating you today?
People. People who hold grudges, to be exact. It's not worth it.
5. I don't look like Halle Berry. But chances are, she's going to end up looking like me.
What do you think you'll end up looking like? (A picture would help.)
A sexy hot grandma, thats what I'll be! How can I post a future picture? Thats just silly.
6. I grew up in a time when it would never have occurred to anyone to tell me there was anything I couldn't do.
Has anyone told you that you could not do something?
The husband told me I can't have a new puppy.
7. I want Carl Sagan to explain the sky to me.
Is there anybody dead that you'd like to talk to?
My mom.
8. If every American donated five hours a week, it would equal the labor of 20 million full-time volunteers.
Have you ever done volunteer work?
Not anything to really speak of...
9. It's being willing to walk away that gives you strength and power - if you're willing to accept the consequences of doing what you want to do.
Have you ever walked away from a job and regretted it?
Nope. There's a reason I walked away from the one I did and I haven't looked back since.
10. Normal is in the eye of the beholder.
Are you normal? Explain

LOL Thats funny shit right there

.

I Rock

Yeah, I pretty much rock as a wife. After 38 years, the husband finally owns a Harley and it's all thanks to me. I bought it from a friend of ours... made the deal last summer and the husband didn't find out about it until last month. He's a pretty happy hubby, thats for sure.

It's a 1990 Springer Softail with only a little over 20k on it. Our friend just didn't ride it much, which turns out good for us.

Now if this stupid snow would just melt so we could actually go out riding!

Oh... and I baked him his favorite pie, lemon meringue. Because a Harley

just isn't enough for presents, I guess. I only attempt this pie once a year. They aren't that hard to make, but they suck.

In other news... found more lumps on my Serena Rosabella's tummy yesterday. She had some a few years ago that we had removed and it turned out NOT to be cancer, which was suprising because something like 95% of mammary lumps are cancerous. We got lucky. Hopefully we get lucky this time around too. She's 11 years old now and still my baby. She's a little princess who knows full well she's a princess.

1. Dream On “Every time that I look in the mirror, All these

lines in my face getting clearer. The past is gone. It went by like dusk to dawn. Isn’t that the way. Everybody’s got their dues in life to pay” Do you pay dues or something such as a membership in a union, church, civic group, gang, etc?

I write a lot of checks to snowmobile clubs, does that count? I personally even belong to one.
2. Angel “Without your love, I’m nothing but a beggar. Without your love,

a dog without a bone…” What is your favorite dog breed?

You would think I"d say a golden because of my Saki, but

honestly... I've always had a weakness for German Shepards. Ever since I was little and befriended my brother's friend's shepard, Knuckles. Meanest dog in town, kids wouldn't go near him, the guy's mom wouldn't go near him, but me? I crawled in his doghouse with him. You make a friend with a shepard, you make a friend for life.

3. Sweet Emotion “You stand in the front just a shakin your ass. I’ll take you backstage you can drink from my glass…” Have you ever been backstage at a concert to meet the band? If not, what band would you like to meet backstage?

4. Walk This Way “So I took a big chance at the high school dance with a missy who was ready to play…” What was the first song you ever danced to at a school dance?
Really? You want me to remember that? My first dance was in 7th grade and I don't even remember if I had a date or not.
5. Crazy “You’re packin up your stuff and talkin like it’s tough. And tryin to tell me that it’s time to go, yeah. But I know you ain’t wearin nothing underneath that overcoat. And it’s all a show, yeah.” Ever worn your PJs in public?
The new thing is PJ pants, don't you know that?
6. Cryin “I was cryin when I met you. Now I’m tryin to forget you. Your love is sweet misery.” What is the worst film you went to see in the past 5 years?
I don't go see bad films.
7. Draw The Line “Checkmate honey beat you at your own damn game. No dice honey I’m livin on the astral plane. Feet’s on the ground and your head’s goin down the drain. Oh heads I win tails you lose….” What is your favorite board game?
Does cribbage count?
8. Big Ten Inch Record “My girl don’t go for smoking, and liquor just makes her flinch. Seems she’ll go for nuthin, ‘cept for my big ten inch… Record of a band that plays the blues…” What was your favorite record (or CD) when you were 18 years old?

My brother's comedy show
12. Rag Doll “Yes I’m movin, I’m really movin. Sloe Gin fizzy, do it til you’re dizzy. Give it all you got until your put out of your misery” What is the most miserable thing that happened to you recently?
Lately? Nothing really. Is that bad? I like my life, I have a very good life.
13. Love In An Elevator “Love in an elevator, lovin it up when I’m goin down. Love in an elevator. Livin it up when I hit the ground…” What is the most unusual place that you have made love?

In the front bucket seat of a Grand Am - one of the earlier Grand Ams, the small little boxy ones? Yeah, that. Why the front seat? I don't know, but it didn't work so well. Maybe it would have worked better had we pulled the seat back all the way... I know it's not unusual in an unusual sense, but it was the first place that popped into my mind because it was ... memorable?

Quack Quack

Something I found that was posted over at Insanity Cafe....
If you want to deliver the Gettysburg Address at the Lincoln Memorial, make sure you get a permit first. This is a lesson Phillip Howell, 25, learned the hard way this past Presidents' Day when he went to the memorial all prepared and was told by the police that he would have to take his speech elsewhere.

Howell was confused as to why it is actually illegal to read the words carved into the memorial’s wall in a loud voice, he told the Daily Caller, but he obeyed. Instead, the 6-foot-4 Howell, who looks a lot like Abe Lincoln himself, moved to the bottom of the steps and delivered the rest of the speech. Simple, right?

Howell may have gotten around the law (sort of, anyway), but obscure and bizarre laws are not unique to Washington, DC. Here are 10 strange laws that still stand around the country:

In Alabama, it's illegal for a driver to be blindfolded while operating a vehicle: So, um, duh? Does anyone think this SHOULD be legal? Did we really need a law telling us this?
In Massachusetts, candy may not contain more than 1% of alcohol. While the law makes sense to me having just eaten some pretty potent chocolate liquor balls in Belgium, it sounds a little strange.
In New Jersey, it's illegal to pump your own gas.
In New Mexico, "idiots" cannot vote. Don't believe me? Read it: "Every citizen of the United States, who is over the age of twenty-one years, and has resided in New Mexico twelve months, in the county ninety days, and in the precinct in which he offers to vote thirty days, next preceding the election, except idiots, insane persons, and persons convicted of a felonious or infamous crime unless restored to political rights, shall be qualified to vote at all elections for public officers."
In Ohio, it's illegal to mistreat anything of great importance.
In Arizona, hunting camels is prohibited. Because there are so many camels?
In South Carolina, you must be 18 to play pinball. Obviously this one is because of the many wild and crazy pinball machines in other states, right?
In Maryland, you may not have oral or anal sex. Good thing Clinton was technically in DC, no?
In Florida, it's illegal to sell your children, which begs the question: Is it legal somewhere else?
In Pennsylvania, until 2002, one was not allowed to swear in front of women and children.

So much for land of the free. Although my favorite law isn't listed.... It is illegal to walk across the Minnesota-Wisconsin border with a duck on your head.

Do farts really stink?

Do farts really stink or are we just conditioned to believe that they do?

I was just thinking about this because of a show I watched the other day. We are genetically made to think certain parts of the opposite sex are attractive for procreation purposes. Scents of people are the same way. They went on to say how the view of what is attractive has changed over the years, but in some parts of the world it hasn't. Then it got me thinking of other things that we are conditioned to think... like how years ago girls got married & started a family in their teenage years, etc. Don't ask me how it got me thinking about farts (probably because the cat farted, who knows)... but who decided that farts stink? And that flowers smell good? If you think about it, many animals go based off the smell of that particular area but yet we find it repulsive.

Thought bubbles

Thinking about starting up this blogging thing again....

Pass Bud a Q-tip

The TT questions are brought to you by Bud, the color of Kimber's hair(where did she go?) and thenumber 333.

1. We are changing your name. You have no choice. You get to pick it, but we must approve it. You must have a good reason. Ok, what is the name and reason?

Jane Smith. Because I want a name that nobody else has.

2. I say Shotgun, you say?

Not many serial killers use shotguns these days, not that they ever did... usually just pissed of wives who shoot their husbands junk off in their sleep. I think it's pretty sad really, the shotgun isn't used much anymore at all. Even in hunting. I guess it just doesn't get the respect it should. I don't think there was a serial killer that used a shotgun... I should check on that.

3. We are sending you away. Africa or Mexico?

Africa sounds safer for some reason.

4. When you're home alone, do you still close the door when you use the restroom?

I don't close it when people are home, why would I when I'm alone? Actually, true story, I close AND LOCK the bathroom door when I take a shower when I am home alone and I don't know why. Pyscho.

5. Berleen told me that I have to ask a mean question. Tell us about a horrible memory.

Ok WTF Bud? I did not tell you to ask a mean question. Get a QTip and get the crap outta your ears.. I said "do you want to ask meme questions?". Men.

6. What are your plans for October?

Um... I don't even know what my plans for today are yet

7. Is there anyone that you regret ever meeting ?

yes and no. I could come up with a few people but then again, if I hadn't had met them maybe I wouldn't be who I am today.

8. You have 3 months left to live, what do you do?

Live for 3 more months I guess... kind of a silly question, isn't it?

9. You wake up in an unfamiliar place, what is your first reaction?

Just like in the movies... I blink a bunch of times and say "where am I?" in a whiserpy sort of voice.

10. Your phone rings at 4am, just before you kill this person, who do you expect it would be?

My stepmom telling me something is wrong with my dad.

11. You're having a bad day, what one thing can make your day better?

Chocolate. Duh.

12. You are doing a meme written by the blogosphere's shadiest character. Is there anything else that you should be doing right now?

Not really, it's 6:55 am. I'm drinking coffee... it's the only thing important right now.

13. If money were not a problem, (and it never is, right? Yes, I stole this f$%*ing question. Sue me.) where would you like to live?

In Buds house. Just because I think it would be really boring.


Nobody cares anymore but, Why haven't you joined ICForums???

k who changed this to nobody cares anymore?? Kimber? Everybody cares... we spent the day talking about dogs on bikes and how all it takes is M&Ms to lose your virginity at 12 years old. Everyone cares about that!!!!!

Have a great day. Or not. See you next Thursday. There's that attitude again.... WTF?

Ok FINE!!!!!!!!!!
