Random Thoughts

People cheering and whistling when Janet Napolitano went to speak at a memorial – I don’t get that on so many levels.

People who disagree with me on my political views are bad people.

So is everyone sure there is nothing unlucky about Thursday the Thirteenth, because I’m about to tease a wolverine.

I have a neat little book where I keep track of all the different types of animals I’ve teased or pestered. Largest: Humpback whale.

Babies don’t like to be teased, but it’s not always about what babies like.

Every time FDR gave a speech, I don’t remember it getting compared to what some woman posted on Facebook.

I guess they could place the bar even lower. “Look how much more presidential Obama is than the ‘I like turtles’ kid.”

So are there other types of mammoths than the wooly kind?

  1. So are there other types of mammoths than the wooly kind?

    There’s the spiny mammoth, the semi-bald mammoth, the feathered mammoth, the scaly mammoth. They’re all extinct, and there haven’t been any fossil finds, but they were there. Paul Krugman told me so.

    I was touched when they decided to thank Paul Wellstone and that young girl killed in Arizona for “their tireless devotion to our party, even post-death.” As Americans, we should feel honored to share this nation with people of such gratitude and humility.

    Every time FDR gave a speech, I don’t remember it getting compared to what some woman posted on Facebook.

    That is because FDR’s speeches droned on forever and put people to sleep before they could think of comparisons.

    Random thought: I have teased domestic animals like dogs, cats, goldfish, rabbits, cows, pigs, and cockatiels. To date, however, my only wild animals are the Mourning Dove and the Song Sparrow. One particuarly stupid Mourning Dove flew within what was shooting range because my poor imitation of the bird’s own call was enough to attract him.

  3. “So is everyone sure there is nothing unlucky about Thursday the Thirteenth, because I’m about to tease a wolverine.”

    I’ve heard that Friday the Thirty Third is a really bad luck day, fortunately they capped the months at Thirty One days max. Whew!

    Frank is part of the World Mourning Dove Conspiracy? I didn’t realize he was THAT important!

  4. WMDC? Aren’t they the group that meets in Davros? Or are they the group of powerful men (i.e., Dick Cheney) who meet in the woods of California — in such seclusion that they can whiz outside?

    “[Bohemian] club members at the Grove ‘urinate in the open without even the use of rudimentary toilet facilities'”

    Smallest: Amoeba. What you do is find the amoeba in the microscope viewfinder. It’ll try to scurry away (or move to and fro) because the light makes it hot. Follow it long enough, and it splodes! Works better than dazzling them with lasers.

    As for applause for anyone at a memorial event — especially for Jan — my befuddlement makes my brain hurt, but mebbe I shouldn’t rush to judgement.

  5. So are there other types of mammoths than the wooly kind?

    There is that guy suing the NHS in the UK for letting him get fat.

    There is probably a sign telling them to do it like in the old game shows. Or they are adding it to the sound track for tv, probably the most likely scenario.

  6. Every time FDR gave a speech, I don’t remember it getting compared to what some woman posted on Facebook.

    Facebook, everyone deserves a bully pulpit that can be as loud as the Presidents. I’m going to legally change my name to Sarah Palin and open up another FB account so I can make fun of the President too and so I could have 100,000 real friends.

  7. Its 2011 the first thing wooley mammoth females are going to do is get a wax job. Would have been easier to just raise more of or current elephants?

    @AwesometificAmerican, you maybe right, I would love to see a side by side you tube video of them in rhythm.
