Yep...that's
what happened... We all get heavier as we get older because there's a lot more information in our heads. So I'm not fat, I'm just really intelligent and my head couldn't hold any more so it started filling up the rest of me! That's my story and I'm sticking to it! |

 Never
have I seen a political cartoon that so beautifully portrays the
persona of Gayle Ruzicka and her relationship with the Utah Legislature.
Bagley, you've done it again. Of course now we can expect rioting
bands of curler-clad housefraus burning and pillaging in the streets
of Highland, but as long as it doesn't spill around the point of
the mountain............ |

Let's
start with these crappy new 4 wheel drive systems. A fairly new
Toyota 4WD Pickup broke down in the left-turn lane on 13th east
right in front of the Chevron. We tried to get it going, but couldn't,
so we decided to push it out of the way. Well, it was an automatic,
which by the way locks in park when the thing won't start. So I
think, hey, let's just put the transfer case into neutral, then
we'll be able to push it out of the way, No such luck. The transfer
case went into neutral, but the system was still locked in. Just
went out to my truck to double check it, and I was right, doesn't
matter what gear I'm in, if the transfer case is in neutral the
truck moves. Ahhh, progress..... |
I don't care who you are, coming home to a police car in your driveway is, well, a little disconcerting. Especially when there is also a detectives car right out in front of your house. So I pull up in front of the neighbor's house, flip on my hazards, and get out of my car to see what's going on. There isn't anyone in the detective's car, but there is someone in the front seat of the car in the driveway. It's midnight, cold outside, so all of the windows are up and I'm thinking "great, I'm going to knock on this officer's window, startle the hell out of him (turned out to be a her) and end up with a gun in my face, hopefully not a very recently fired one." She must have seen me coming up in the rearview mirror, because I had hardly enough time to get out a quiet, yet hopefully audible, "hello" when she opened the door and said something. Can't remember what, but I do remember returning with a polite and casual "what's up?" Telling me that the house next door was broken into resulted in another jolt of adrenaline and images of my house a mess with everything missing (net : $62.45 at the local pawn shop). So, she pulls out of the driveway, I pull in expecting to see the back door bashed in, or at least the garage door opened, park the truck, check everything and see it all safe and secure. For now. Have to admit that I'm a little bit nervous about leaving the house now. Back in December the neighbor across the street came over to see if I had seen anything weird at his house, he was missing some stuff from the back yard. And I thought they didn't allow criminals in Sugarhouse........ |

Ms. Morgan had the students writing a story about groundhog day with a list of words that they had to put in the story. One of the words was "Mr. Rossi". Here is the first excerpt from a story written from the viewpoint of the groundhog :

FIVE
RULES FOR MEN TO FOLLOW TO ACHIEVE A HAPPY LIFE: 1. It's important to have a woman who helps at home, who cooks from time to time, cleans and has a job. 2. It's important to have a woman who can make you laugh. 3. It's important to have a woman who you can trust and who doesn't lie to you. 4. It's important to have a woman who is good in bed and who likes to be with you. 5. It's very, very important that these four women don't know each other. |
One
evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes
on inside people. He said, "My son, the battle is between two
"wolves" inside us all. One is Evil. It is anger, envy,
jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment,
inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. The other
is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness,
benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith. The
grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather:
"Which wolf wins?" The old Cherokee simply replied, "The
one you feed." |

In
case you didn't notice, or wondered why, the site has been down
for the last couple of days. After Workzilla Weekend (Friday
: 7am-3pm @ school, then 4pm to 1am @ Chevron; Saturday 8am-1pm
@ school then 7pm-11pm @ Chevron) I get up Sunday and
the modem has crapped out on me. First I think it's just that the
cable is down, except I know which lights on the modem go off and
which stay on when it's the cable that is down, and this was the
wrong configuration. So, I unplug it, re-plug it, turn it off, turn
it on, unplug it, turn it off, shut down the computer, reboot the
computer, plug it in and turn it on. And several other combinations
of turning on & off and disconnecting & connecting. Nothing.
Nada. Zilch, Zero. Still the same (wrong) lights on. So, I took
off from school a bit early and brought the old modem down to Comcast,
no fuss, no muss, they gave me a brand new one. From the time I
got home to when I was up and running took a total of about 45 minutes,
and that included driving time. So, I know ya missed me, but I'm
back.......... |
