Treat Me Right - Grace Potter & the Nocturnals

Chain Chain Chain

Chain of fools.

Well, ONE fool, that's me.

I have so much stuff in my garage, I can't get to my lawnmower. (Doofus move # 45,689 this year) I got Dad's mower, but I guess it sat so long the gas varnished up the line because it never ran very well.

So, I bought a new one; not a nice one, just a Wal-Mart special, 125 bucks. Since I couldn't put it in the garage, I have been storing it on my front porch. I had a brand new gas can w/ a couple gallons of gas in it sitting by it and someone stole it the other day.

So, back out to WM I went and purchased ten foot of chain and a padlock. The chain is now wrapped around a corner post and through the handles of the gas can and the lawnmower.

Funny thing though, the gas can disappeared the same day the young thugs and their parents moved out just down the street.

Anyway, that's why I haven't posted to this blog...I've been angry as hell. I need to chain up my emotions. *sigh*

15 Seconds of Fame

15 Seconds of TV Fame, but 24 hrs. of online fame, not really a lot of difference.

Submitted a Horny Toad photo, cropped some, to an Amarillo TV station's website and it was selected as the Photo of the Day; they even showed it on the five o'clock news and mentioned my name. It was funny because I had the subtitles on and it spelled out my last name in an amusing manner. (I'm used to it by this stage of my life, and it used to be annoying but these days I just try to see the humor in it)

I had someone come to the door just a minute before it started, so I didn't get to see all fifteen seconds of the spot. The female anchor said something about Texas Aggies, so a joke must have been made about TCU.

(TCU was interested in me as a football player back when I was a senior in h.s.; I once got a standard form letter from them addressed to: "Dear Athlete,". They really weren't too interested in semi-mediocre-sized fish in teensy-tiny ponds that played 8-Man football.)

Anyway, missed 3/4 of the program. Wished I'd taped it...

Nah, not really.

Here's a screenshot from the KVII Community section:



I'm a little worried about my "real name" being "out there" (you're not paranoid if someone really IS out to get you, you know) but I doubt Interpol watches Texas Panhandle television.

I've found my newest obsession: Submitting photos to KVII until they block my ISP or get a restraining order against me.

We're # 3 !!!

First there's Hertz, then there's Avis, then there's ToTG.

Maybe I need to get into the car rental bidness.

Dog-gone it, this is funny...
