Party Til The Cows Come Home

There's A Body In the Backyard
Apr. 16th, 2012 09:15 pmI forgot to mention that part in my open house tale. One of the houses was set back in the woods, with no lawn and limited landscaping. So the owner had gone a bit nuts with kitsch and bits. Mom wanted to know how far into the woods the property went, and I saw an electrical cord that seemed to go nowhere, so I decided to follow it. About 60 feet into the woods, I found a body,
A plastic and fiberglass body, that is, but very detailed and realistic model of a man buried up to his armpits, reaching out for help and screaming in desperation. And I though the 18 inch long cement acorn was odd.

Who Let The Nutter Out?
Feb. 21st, 2012 02:12 pmAnd no, not talking about Rick Santorum (this time). Over the last couple of weeks, we've received some bizarre, unsolicited snail mails at the office. And I mean bizarre. It's kind of like reading paranoid schizophrenia. I checked the local court web site, this guy has amassed a pile of protective orders, citations for contempt and orders for psychiatric evaluation over the last couple years and last month he was disbarred from being a CPA. Why he isn't in jail, I'm not sure. Instead, he's randomly mailing out this stuff. (And really, dude, it's 2012. You're supposed to put this crap on Facebook.)
Fortunately, because I am lazy, someone at Something Awful also receives this wackiness and has scanned and posted them.
( Read it and marvel at the crazy. )

People Are Strange
Feb. 23rd, 2011 03:53 pmEver notice that when people are inside, 64 degrees is cold? Time to bundle up, put on a sweater, please reset the thermostat!
But if it's 64 degrees outside...hey, shorts and sandals time!
Weird.

From Sublime to Ridiculous
Mar. 10th, 2009 11:52 am60 Minutes' piece on how the FDIC takes over a bank was easy to understand and, amazingly, kind of reassuring. My boss endorses this piece as well, and he knows his financials.

Then again, there's these people. Darwins, anyone?
