An idea to get more stuff done around the house

Let NBC’S Olympics coverage play in the background. The majestic music they use as bumpers will lead to you think even the most mundane of house chores have suddenly become heroic feats of valor victory.

I guess that’s one of those horrible things that all kids have to get through.

But now, over 15 years later, and I think I’d ready to get them again.. maybe

Friday night freak out

Captain Trips does not exist. But Ebola does. And the World Health Organization is assuring the planet that the Ebola breakout on the African continent is under control..
While the WHO attempts to calm worldly nerves, this news broke today: A prisoner with Ebola symptoms has escaped and is on the loose in Uganda..
It may sound like the plot of THE STAND so far but I sure don’t hope it ends that way..

The last laugh. As he becomes the greatest..

The last laugh. As he becomes the greatest..

FOR ALL THOSE WHO COUNTED OUT MICHAEL PHELPS…

TAKE THIS!!

 

FULL MOON RISING:

THIS ONE FULL, THE NEXT ONE BLUE

The world is about to see two full moons this month—the first coming tonight. The second will be the final day of August..

The second full moon of this month earns the title of ‘blue moon,’ which his unusual but it happens..

Perhaps it will be a good night to open the mini blinds, and tune in to Coast to Coast AM as George Noory interviews John Hogue about prophecies for 2012.

And guaranteed by the end you’ll wish Art Bell was back on radio..

OLYMPICS 2012: LONDON A 'GHOST TOWN'

This is interesting news given officials’ hopes and prayers that the London games would create a mini economic boom during a period of Euro fizzle. So far it’s not what it was all cracked up to be.

OLYMPICS 2012: LONDON A 'GHOST TOWN'

A troubling story from India as the infrastructure has been crippled.. a major blackout occurring has left 370 million without electricity ..

And coupled with the lack of power: The lack of air conditioning or fans during a tremendously hot period of time..

It's garbage night in my humble abode, but it begs the question ..

I had chicken wings last week. Wednesday night. There are still some left and I am throwing them out. How long have YOU kept chicken wings?

Truly horrible story as this man, David Kwiatkowski, a former lab technician at Exeter Hospital in New Hampshire, may have infected thousands with Hepatitis C..

Still standing: America's flag is still on the moon

…or in a Arizona desert.. You be the judge.

Putin vs the punks: The world is watching how the trial of a female punk band in Russia will go..

And sadly there isn’t much hope for the punks.

A tale of two Americas

This is the world we live in..

On one side: Progress, on the other… the 1800s.

The Democratic Party had added support of gay marriage to its draft convention platform.. Keep in mind, it’s just a draft. We’ll see if they ‘go there.’

On the other hand, in Mississippi, a church has refused to marry a black couple..

This is outrageous: A writer for THE INDEPENDENT has been silenced by Twitter after NBC complained about critical tweets concerning the Olympics

There is a chilling effect here.. 
The death of the free net, perhaps? 

And remember this: Twitter and NBC formed a partnership for these Olympics. 

Think about this.. this deep about this..,

Another worthy night for Coast to Coast AM

George Knapp at the mic tonight. His topics: Possessions and exorcisms. Demons will take over late night radio. If you’re awake from 1am to 5am EDT tonight perhaps the show will be worth the scare..

Day two

If the seat problem won't dampen your spirit, maybe rain will? Olympics drenched

But damnit.. it’s London! Rain happens. 

It actually makes things more interesting..

If the seat problem won't dampen your spirit, maybe rain will? Olympics drenched

Sorry for all these empty seat photos from the Olympics, but it’s just driving me crazy. I say, open the doors, let in the crowds.. Make it free!!

The biggest games on earth and no one there to watch.. 

    

    

Romney visits the Western Wall in Israel, declares imminent domain, knocks it down, and builds a Best Buy. Just kidding.
