The difference between guts and balls

Guts - is arriving home late after a night out with the guys, being assaulted by your wife with a broom, and having the guts to ask:
”Are you still cleaning, or are you flying somewhere?"

Balls - is coming home late after a night out with the guys, smelling of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife on the ass and saying, "You're next."

Cut out Toys for Girls and Boys


My kids are too little for this but I have some nieces and nephews who might enjoy them. I'm even half way tempted to build one just for fun.

What about reading?

It seems like in Idaho everything you read talks about the poor state our kids and math. In fact we have charter school that are supposed to focus on math. The Idaho Statesman put out a "Discover Treasure Valley" insert and one of the things it lists is how the Treasure Valley schools performed in 2005. What I find interesting is out of 61 schools it ends up 80% missed reading but only 48% missed math. So do we focus on math because it's the trendy thing to do? Where are the charter schools whose core is reading?

Today I woke up and by back was sore and my left knee is throbbing. Yup today is my birthday.

New National Symbol



This has been making the office rounds today.

Official Announcement

The government today announced that it is changing its emblem from an Eagle to a CONDOM because it more accurately reflects the government's political stance. A condom allows for inflation, halts production, destroys the next generation, protects a bunch of pricks, and gives you a sense of security while you're actually being screwed.
