"END THE INSANITY" RANT FOR 9-29-11

WHEN IS ENOUGH ENOUGH????

The level of the absurd we endure on a daily basis continues to escalate, and our children are being affected.I think before allowing someone to be a teacher, they should have to take a common sense test. Let me explain.

A self-righteous teacher in California (maybe that explains it) disciplined a student for saying "GOD BLESS YOU" when a fellow student sneezed! His explanation was, that is was a class disruption and the sentiment was not relative! He even went as far as to deduct 25 points from the student's grade!

What the hell gives this adle-brained supposed educator the right to impose his personal beliefs on the children in his charge?? Can you imagine the confused and hurt feelings that this student had for conveying a good will sentiment to a fellow student!

Here is some advice to this RIDICULOUS excuse for a teacher. CONCENTRATE ON DOING YOUR JOB! Do not try to impose your beliefs, and in this case, undermine the teachings of the parents. We need teachers to open our children's minds not close them. We don't care about your opinions. If you can't teach objectively and impartially, then go clean up dog crap in the park!

It's closed minded whack jobs like you that don't understand how a child feels, that needs to be doing something else. Stop giving good teachers a bad name.

Don't you think that discipling this student for something positive they said borders on censorship?

"CHIMPDOM AT IT'S FINEST" RANT FOR 9-28-11

I know..I know..It's been awhile. So much happening so little time :)

Well just as you start to relax you are reminded of the continued depths of "MORONIC" behavior that the "CHIMPS" can display!

These failures of a human gnome experiment have found a new way to amuse themselves while they are in the drunken stupor of "CHIMPDOM". Prepare yourselves for the latest wonderous tale of "URBAN CHIMPS" in the wild!

I awoke a few days ago to the sound of what in my sleepy state, I thought was gunfire, and I was intially alarmed! Had we been transported to the wild west, or worse to Baltimore city? As my head cleared and I began to investigate, keeping my head low of course, I found it was our resident "POOP THROWING CHIMPS", having what they thought was fun by setting off fireworks.

Now normally the fireworks don't bother me because they run out very quickly, but the "JACKASS" twist the "CHIMPS" put on it this time concerned me! Hold on, I am getting there. They were firing them at houses in the area, and anytime they got close to a house they would jump up and down and start laughing and hollering like they were in a shooting gallery! Oh yea, my house was not spared their inebriated aim.

Fortunately these "LIMITED BRAIN CELLED MAMMALS" that even chimps would be ashamed of, didn't do any harm (although there was fireworks debris in my yard). Someone must have called the police, because they ended their "ARTILLERY BARAGE" simulation abruptly!

Seriously, how brain dead stupid do you have to be to put your neighbors at risk of a fire? The debris in my yard was buries about 1 1/2 in in the ground!

These "PEOPLE" are truly wasted sperm.

"GPS" Rant for 10-14-11

Good Afternoon All,

What a wild month it has been, severe storms, hurricane's, earthquakes, more storms and rain. We are considering permanently sandbagging our garage and turning it into an indoor swimming pool. But enough of this. Let's move on to today's topic.

Can anyone of an elightened status explain to me who thought that taking a navigation system that was designed for aircraft and satellites, and installing them into ground vehicles was a good idea?

The chaos that has resulted from this obvious money making ploy is evident! You have all experienced the aftermath of the ill-thought of decision, whether you realize it or not.

Have you noticed the mental giant that crosses 4 lanes of traffic  to get off just as you come to an exit? That's the GPS effect! How about the nit-wit that unexpectedly (and without a signal) changes from the right lane to the left lane cutting you off so they can make a last minute left turn? That's the GPS effect! As a case in point, I have only been lost twice in the last few years and both times I was using one of these mechanical marvels. That's the GPS effect!

What the GPS system has done, is taken an already "lobotomized" society and increased it's dependency on a gadget! The normal driver no longer pays attention to where they are enroute. They solely rely on the "talking map" to tell them when to turn. Unfortunately, when you add the radio and cell phone to the equation, these "road zombies" cannot hear their talking automotive baby sitter, and are thus unaware of where to turn. This causes the "russian roulette" crossing traffic situation. The situation becomes more dangerous when the "lobotomized" segment does not update the unit's software!

Really people, don't you think it would just be easier to know where you are going ahead of time? It would help those of us that still have a few brain cells stay out of harms way, and hey, in these tough economic times, could save you a few hundred bucks :)

"PT BARNUM WAS RIGHT" Rant For 8-16-11

I have come to the conclusion that PT Barnum was right. There is a every SUCKER BORN every minute!

Take the latest example..Dunkin Donuts has a added a drink called "Frozen Hot Chocolate" when I first saw this I chuckled. How did they accomplish this oxymoron? Did they make hot chocolate and put it in the freezer? My amusement turned to astonishment when I actually saw people ordering this menu item born of SMOKE and MIRRORS (including my son, although he caught on extremely quickly).

I must admit to a certain admiration for the marketing people who come up with these shell games. Are they genuises, or are the people who buy into these ploys so gullible we just need to shake our heads? People spoiler alert! IT'S JUST CHOCOLATE MILK, and not very well mixed at that!

I put this one up there with SKY HOOKS, LEFT HANDED MONKEY WRENCHES, and one of my all time favorites, THE PET ROCK. However,the ultimate winner of the whole money for nothing scam is..(let's see how many people this tweaks) are PSL's. Yes my fellow sheep, PERSONAL SEAT LICENSES! this is the ultimate in proving Barnum's theory! In a nutshell your are actually paying for the right to buy season tickets. Talk about double dipping. Some people have said, I paid for it THAT'S MY SEAT! If you want to test that theory, try using that seat at another event besides a football game.

Don't get me wrong, if wasting your money on these things makes you happy, more power to you. I figure though if I want a better seat than my 46"HDTV, I'll just get a bigger TV. It'll cost less than PSL'S.

I'm sorry if I interrupted your workout time..Hey, you can always take one of those pills that promises weight loss with no controlling what you eat, or doing exercise.

Ole' PT would be proud!

I'm Done!

"PARTISAN POLITICAL BS" Rant for 8-10-11

I am obviously like Icharis flying to close to the sun where politics is concerned...I need to stay away, but I am drawn back like a moth to a flame!

So do we have donkey ears or what?  I am soooo tired of my "RIGHT WING" friends blaming things on the left..Tell me, can you name any company that has created jobs since the BUSH, I mean ROVE tax breaks?  I am currently helping to shut down my 6th, YES 6th manufacturing plant in 8 years! And don't get me started on the "TEA BAGGERS" They're like spoiled brats who even when theyget what they want, it's not good enough?

I am also sooo tired of my "LEFT WING" friends blaming things on the right. How in your right mind can you insult the "LEGAL IMMIGRANTS" and the rest of us in this country by trying to restrict the border states from securing their/our borders?? Not to mention trying to give in-state tuition rates to illegals in Maryland! if you want to win a battle get your head out of your ass and stop compromising. Even if the "RIGHTIES" are wrong they at least believe they're own BS and don't back down. It's become painfully obvious that you "mushroom" eating millionaires have no idea what being an american is. Let's look at a couple of points.

1. The debt ceiling- Not only did their partisan bickering damn near cause us to default, but it screwed our credit rating! And the icing! They want to say S&P made the wrong call! ARE YOU PEOPLE INSANE?? Our country is broke and can't pay it's bills, and you egomaniacs are in the sand box kicking sand in each others faces! Your indecisiveness was a key in the S&P decision..Unbelievable!
2. FAA funding-Then in a continuation of #1, they refuse to fund the FAA! Stating that they have to take a stand and stop subsidising smaller airports. All well and good jello-brains, but you left safety inspectors and other key personnel without jobs! Do you really want to fly without safety inspectors and mechanics? What a childish moronic stand to take. The first flight without safety inspectors should have been filled with congress.
3. Lower taxes helps our corporations provide jobs..ULTIMATE BS! Lets just mention what lower taxes and regulation has produced. GREED! Let's review, WORLD COM, LEHMAN BROS, ADELPHIA, MORTGAGE BANKS,BERNIE MADOFF, and I could go on and on,  including,  and most recently, the whole AIRLINE INDUSTRY!! Why? Because while our clueless, brainless congressional reps were throwing boogies at each other, and refusing to approve FAA money, they also could not collect taxes from the airlines. What did the airlines do? They raised their fares in the amount of the taxes and pocketed the profits. As soon as the money was approved fares returned to normal. HOW ABOUT THAT GREED! I again I remind, I am helping shut down my 6th manufacturing plant in 8 years, and my job may be included in this one!

Look folks, although I am as disillusioned in our government as the next guy, the only people we can blame for this mess is US. WE GET WHAT WE VOTE FOR! We have become a nation of SHEEPLE to use my friend John's analysis. This clueless lot of millionaires on both sides of the aisle need to go!!!! They have lost touch with the average american, and only serve themselves. SEND A MESSAGE! CLEAR THEM OUT!

I'M DONE!

"MORE CHIMPS" Rant for 8-4-11

Well Good Evening Everyone! I know I haven't been "Ranting".  Did you miss me? I don't think I want to know. :)

I hope you don't think I've been ignoring you, but with work issues and life, I have been a little overwhelmed. That really is unusual for me. But enough, let's move on. I thought since I'm a little rusty, (no comments please!) I would start out with one of my favorite subjects, the inconsiderate CHIMPS that plague us all.

I think we all have the preconceived notion that the "CHIMP" is a knuckle dragging neanderthal that thinks he should be able to do whatever he wants, wherever he wants, no matter who it annoys...

 I recentlylearned however, as John Pinette would say, NAY-NAY. The "CHIMPS" have permeated every segemnt of our society like insidous "BODY SNATCHERS" taking us by surprise when we least expect it. But on with the story!

Like most men I appreciate an attractive woman, and in the summertime even more so, so when I pulled into the Dunkin Donuts to get my usual extra large decaf, (no comments, could you imagine if I consumed large quatities of caffeine?) I was pleasantly surprised by four attractive woman standing by a Mercedes. These were woman of obvious class and substance, not a hair out of place, and no Wal-Mart fashions here. I remember being impressed, but THIS LASTED LESS THAN A MINUTE!

 Why you ask? Because my fellow humanoids, these pretentious offspring of the upper crust, emptied all the trash from the Mercedes, including bottles, on to the parking lot! They then just climbed into the Mercedes and left! Obviously these female "CHIMPS" felt the rest of us were there to clean up after them. The Manager of the 5 Guys restaurant came out of his store to protest, but they had quickly drove off.

This made me angry, not only because of their disregard for the property of others, but also because they had replaced a pleasant memory of four attractive young women on a sunny summer day with a memory of  four female "CHIMPS" THROWING POOP!

The picture is after the 5 Guys Manager started cleaning up!

I'M DONE!

"OH MY! A CONSOLIDATED" Rant for 6-21-11

Ranting is difficult to do when your internet service is down, and near impossible from a cell phone!

Tonights "Rant" is going to be a consolidation of news items and my take on them! But lets start with...

1. Hey Comcast! If you wonder why you are losing marketshare, take a look at the length of time we are without service and the length of time it takes you to correct the problem!
2. Hey Weiner! (I really tried to stay away from this) If your last  name is "Weiner" you think you would avoid acting like one! You would think you would also be "hyper-sensitive" to any perception regarding your "private property"! You may also want to consider you are a freakin troll! No wonder the women complained, do you think they would have complained if the "tweets" were from George Clooney? You just can't trust anyone with a cell phone camera.
3. Hey Paul Ryan! You may want to avoid running a TV AD telling seniors you are protecting them, AFTER you propose slashing Medicaid! You may also want to tell the rest of America that no savings will be realized for 9 years!
4. Hey Michelle Obama! Was it really necessary to take a family entourage on the african trip? I can see the kids and possibly even grandma, but cousins? Are taxpayers footing this bill? hmmm.
5. Hey Mayor of Vidalia GA! I find it laudable that you are standing tall in opposition your conservative brethren against the new tougher immigration law that was passed by your state, but if what you are saying is accurate, and your town's economy depends on the "migrant workers" spending their money there, then it's obviously time to close the town and move on! Oh Yea, ILLEGAL means ILLEGAL!
6. Hey Republican Candidates! Since when does touting how many children, foster children, dogs, cats, llama's, and whatever other creatures inhabit your house, qualify you to be president? You can interpret those revelations in any number of ways..but are you trying to say that the american people are your children? Do we need to be led like "sheeple"? (nod to John Terzi for the term) How insulting! At the end of the day you said nothing! Same words to nowhere with no substance or specifics..If you think we hold you in high regard, read item 1 and 2 for a reality check! You talking pogo-sticks can't even control yourselves. Stop insulting our intelligence!
7. Hey Corporate America! Remember the slick moves you all made to move your money to offshore and overseas banks to avoid our "oppressive" taxes, while taking our jobs with it?  How's that whole european money collapse thing working for you? Now you want to bring the money back, but you want tax concessions! Un-freakin-believable! I'll tell you what, why don't you leave it there and watch it go down the drain with our jobs? Stand on the boat and wave at the Statue of Liberty! Better yet, use all the greedy millions you earned to bail yourselves out pond scum!
8. Here's one for Maryland. Hey Governor Numbnuts, and the Legislative Dwarfs! What prompts you idiots to approve toll hikes for the bridges and tunnels? Have you not realized it yet, that we have no more money? You've sucked us dry! You are making it financially impossible to go to work! Try reducing each legislators expenses! Take away goverment cars and make them pay their own gas, and tolls. How's that for a reality check?
9. Hey John McCain! Are you going senile? How can you blame Arizona wildfires on illegal immigrants? Did they leave a business card? This is one of the most irresponsible comments I've heard in a long time..please retire before you start drooling!

Well, I think I've pretty much covered a few days..The problem is I am now depressed!

I'm Done!
