Eat Lead Punks!

This 71 yr old man, Samuel Williams deserves a medal! Bravo Zulu Sir! I would be honored to shake your hand! It's hilarious how these two bit thugs fall all over themselves as they scramble to escape, LOL. Good thing that hero was packin' heat! This song fits the situation, I think:

Being Ernest

What about being Earnest? Well, earnestness is something we should all choose to do...and...Be. One of the best examples of being earnest is the late, great Ernest Borgnine. He was a man who spoke earnestly. He's beloved by many for his many, topo notch performances: Marty Bad Day At Black Rock The Dirty Dozen The Wild Bunch From Here To Eternity McHale's Navy Emperor Of The North The Poseiden Adventure Airwolf Escape From New York Red And so many more! Ernest served 10 years in the US Navy and fought during WW2. He was a great American patriot 'til the day he died. He visited each and every one of our veteran hospitals, and was the Navy's most successful recruiter! Because he believed in the United States, and American exceptionalism. He believed our liberty was worth fighting for. And he always honored those who have served and those who are serving today. Mr. Borgnine was a class act who had dignity to spare. He believed in hard work and he had a sense of humor that was infectious. He was proud of his service but he never bragged about it. When Ernest Borgnine spoke he spoke honestly and from his heart. We veterans know without a doubt the love he had for us. He was one of us. He was Earnest. RIP and Godspeed Petty Officer First Class Ernest Borgnine. And Thank you! We love you and so do millions of American civilians! Our loss is Heaven's gain. This is Mr. Borgnine receiving his SAG lifetime achievement award. There are also many interviews he gave that are on youtube and they are well worth watching! Lots of wisdom in those interviews.

Justice

Excellent song!

I Stand Alone

Oh?! Whoa! It's downright criminal that this song wasn't played on the radio at least half as much as Stairway To Heaven or Freebird. Not that there's anything wrong with those great songs. I just can't help but wonder how songs like this ever get overlooked. I mean, c'mon! I thought 'instant classic' the first time I heard it.

I'm back! Again! Hurray! Where's My Parade?

Update! Okay, it seems to work in IE (which I already have but hardly ever use). So this buys Blogger a temporary reprieve from The Wrath Of USS Ben! Based on a true story.

Sun Shine Again

Well...I reckon I was sicker than I thought.

Little darkish humor there. An inside joke you might say. Really. I'm smiling right now.

Okay, I realize no one new to this blog would get it without reading some backstory here (re: archives). All I can say is I can't guarantee it is funny enough to read my archives, and if you do you may disagree about the funny factor of sickness, but if you do (disagree) the yoke is on you. :^)

Then again, some of you new guys reading this blog may still not get it. Well, perhaps you weren't put on this earth to get it (another paraphrased inside joke that Big Trouble In Little China afishyendos will appreciate).

And no, I'm not gonna explain it (Hint: it was a Lopan line).
Man. I really miss villains like Lopan. Most villains nowdays are so boring and flat.
Lopan had style and substance...after he married the two green-eyed ladies and drank some blood from one of them that is.

My point is, he is memorable. Everyone appreciates a good villain. The problem with todays villains (and heroes, for that matter) is they are almost all cliches or cardboard cutouts.

But I diegrasp (little gallows humor there).

It might seem strange (might?) that I'm taking this tack on Easter but there is a good (maybe not necessarily good, per se, at least not in a literal sense) reason for it (500 free One Cosmos At Sea credits to the first one who guesses the right answer...to, um, use in my online store!...after I build one...and stock it).

You know, I had some videos linked in here for you guys to watch that sort of helps fill in some blanks (and live ammo also).
However, it's not showing and I have no idea why. Almost no idea (blog...er. Cough. Sucks. Cough).

Anyhow...if it doesn't appear later or if it does, Happy Easter and Happy Passover!
The Lord is risen and an empty tomb bears witness!
Blessed be the name of our God!

I'm truly blessed and thankful to Him for what he has done for me (and for the deviled eggs)!

Um, you did send the deviled eggs, didn't you Lord? Just kidding (but You know that).
Ha ha. I'm glad we can laugh about it.

Okay, I finally figured out what I did wrong, so without further delay I'll return you to the previously scheduled programming. Reprogramming actually.
Hope you like these as much as I do. :^)




Incidently, these vids may give you a clue as to where I have been lately.


Is there a reason why these guys ain't as well known as the Eagles or Lynyrd Skynyrd? I sure can't think of one.

Like Dial Up In A Bullet That's Just Been Fired

Finally got DSL 1.5! Hurray! (Canned applause for the hearing impaired or for those who don't know that's a cue to applaud). Super duper fast. Faster than thought. Well, my thought anyways. And really, that's as fast as it needs to be.

Now if only there was a feature to do away with the typing part...and talking...like a mental projection thingy or E-SP for short. Might not want that to include pictures though.

"Hey guys! Here's my latest nightmare."

"Wait, where did everyone go?"

"Okay, I admit it's actually worse than Helen Thomas, Roseanne, Nancy Pelosi and Michael Moore combined but that's why they call it a nightmare."

"Guys?"

But other than that it would be nice. Plus, I could say stuff without talking.

Thought quotes:

No, I can't talk right now my wife is throwing stuff at me.

Sorry, my mind is just not into it today (or any other day you psycho...um, did I just think that out loud?).

It's not you, it's my mind.

Damn, my wife says we need more alone time (meaning: turn the computer off and watch this stupid movie).

End thought quotes.

Anyways, I admit there could be a few kinks to work out but it would still be nifty. I said kinks without the y! No, I'm not being defensive! Do you kiss your mother with those thoughts?

I said end thought quotes! Ahem.

Does that mean I'll blog more and comment more at your blogs and stuff?
Unfortunately for you guys, aye, that I will. :^)
