Brazilian Wax in Crisis

Publicly embracing pubic hair: so hot this year. Gwyneth Paltrow arguably started the trend (and kept it rolling), and Cameron Diaz was quick to back her up. American Apparel couldn't help but throw in its own two cents, and the media shouldered some of the responsibility by spawning thinkpiece after thinkpiece on the topic. (The New York Times found space for not one but two trend pieces, parsing the implications of a culture that champions pubic hair.)

oh no, i am not falling for that. the last time i brought up pubic hair, a kick in the nuts would've felt better.

but to be honest, i have no problem with 'publicly embracing pubic hair', i think everyone should try it at least once.

idabel, seriously?

that's not far from broken bow. i worked a weyerhauser job not far from broken bow one time. 2 weeks of 12 hour days on a hot shutdown until it cut wood again. enjoying the local shrubbery and tequila and bud light for another 4 hours until time to do it again tomorrow before other duty called.

idabel. ha! been there.

no offense, but anything south or east of wichita is torture for northern boy.

thank god that was a different life and time from where i am now. unfortunately duty calls far less often these days, but that might not be a bad thing.
 
Idabel is Big Foot country here in OK...

WI Driver Blames Beer Battered Fish for His Drunk Driving Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest




​
It never ceases to amaze us how creative drunk drivers can be with their excuses when they get caught.

For example, John Przybyla, 75, of Friendship, WI, who was stopped back on Oct. 12 after a deputy noticed he crossed the center line and also had a broken tail light on his car. At that point, the officer asked Mr. Przybyla if he had been drinking and the driver insisted he hadn't had any alcohol, but had eaten some beer batter fish for dinner. At that point, Przybyla was given a breathalyzer and got a preliminary result of 0.62%, which is below the legal limit.

Unless, of course, you've had 9 previous arrests for DUI (like Mr. P. here) in which case you're not supposed to have a BAC above .02. So, at that point Przybyla was slapped with his 10th DUI charge, along with his third offense operating while revoked. But he does get credit for coming up with the most creative excuse for drunk driving this week. (And for those of you who are wondering, no you can't get drunk or have a BAC from eating beer battered fish. The alcohol cooks out when it's fried, but it is mighty tasty:)

...something that most people aren't aware CAN really happen.

most people aren't aware of? what? out here in cattle country it happens all the time and boys and girls know all about it by 6th grade if not sooner. it is diffcult not to when dad is upset at the supper table because the new $8,000 bull 'broke his tool'.

all that the bulls are required to do is service about 25 cows when they cycle for about 2 months per year for 3 years, then when their job is done they just eat and fight for the other 10 months per year. it is hard to be effective at any of those things with a broken tool, then they just become hamburger, served in a breastaraunt if you're lucky.

the 2nd most dangerous position mentioned in the article is the reason. sometimes it is overexurberant bull, or uncooperative cow, usually because of uhhh wrong recepticle 'that's not it...', or several bulls in with a large batch of cows and the bigger one knocking the competition off his girls. either way, no tool no job.

i suspect most humans recognize these truths at some root level too, but are just too polite and evolved to acknowledge it. i could be wrong. but at least i ain't hamburger yet, god bless those cowgirls.
 
Pope: Catholics need not breed 'like rabbits'

"God gives you methods to be responsible," he said, according to the National Catholic Reporter's account. "Some think that -- excuse the word -- that in order to be good Catholics we have to be like rabbits. No."

well, i've been thinking lately 'maybe i should find religion' and 'i need more responsible parenting', but if they are not supposed to breed like rabbits anymore i guess i can cross catholic girls off the list.
 
I think he may be talking about contraception. "God gives you the tools to be responsible"......and maybe not be so "fruitful and multiply."
 
Flush with success: The UK

"We're going to run it on the number two route in Bristol, because that seems to sort of ring a bell with people,"

the thing that struck me about this article is the individual impact our protien filtering activities have on the environment. they said the waste one person puts out in a year could power the poop bus for 55km, although i suspect in my case the mileage would be nearly double. that's a lot of crap.
