Luee

Luee
We adopted Luee from the Humane Society in 1996. He was 2 years old, but still a pup. He has slowed down a bit; his age is catching up to him. He is the best dog anyone could ever have. Luee had to be put to sleep on April 15, 2009. Rest in Peace Pup.

MONDAY MORNING AND MY GANDER IS GETTING UP


Good Morning Speakies:

Another Monday is upon us Guys and Dolls and there is nothing we can do about it. Hoping you all had a great weekend. Roe and I celebrated our son’s birthday along with his fiancĂ©e and her family at a nice little Italian restaurant on Saturday. I can still remember him just being born, it seems like yesterday, kids grow up too fast. I also learned my other son Jeff was promoted Friday at his job, congrats my boy, proud of you. I guess you can say I had a great weekend.

Now I’m going to attack some things that are starting to tick me off. Not major things but those little annoying bugaboos. I’m going to make a list you may even agree with me and you can also comment at any time so don’t be afraid to post a comment this is a Speakeasy and that’s what we do here “Speak at Ease.”

One of my first peeves is when I open up a local news station on the internet up comes these pop-ups for lawyers, car dealers etc. “GET THEM OFF THE INTERNET.” I want to read the news and breaking stories not advertisements that go up and down.

Go to those stores like Wal-Mart, Target etc. and when you are ready to checkout they only have 2 checkout lanes open and than you have some lady in front of you with a hundred coupons. ARRGG.

Listen up here shopping centers get more Handicap Parking Spaces. Put them up in front of the various stores and watch for those idiots who do not have a sticker or plate and just park there for the hell of it. Here is an idea have a handicap monitoring patrol to watch for those sneaks who park illegally. Equip these people with radios to call the local police who patrol the parking lots and have them ticket those creeps. You also will be hiring people who need work and help the economy.

Now Roe and I have breathing problems. I use to smoke for many years and I know that’s what caused my problems, Roe is a different story. We both hate people standing in front of doorways at stores or restaurants blowing smoke in your face as you enter. Put those ashtrays or should I say asstrays far away from the entrances. Better yet post a sign “Take Your Butts Elsewhere.”
Cigar Bars, what yuppie came up with that idea? Cigars stink period. That’s my feeling about the subject. As far as Cigar Bars go they are places for guys who wish they could be “THE MOST INTERESTING MAN IN THE WORLD.” as they puff away and sip their brandies. You want a cigar bar go to Cuba.

I like to watch household shows but one thing that is really starting to piss me off is when a couple is looking for a new home and the hubby says, “He wants a “MAN CAVE.” All these guys want is a little play room they did not have as a kid. Find a new home with a big tree outside and build yourself a tree house Neanderthal there’s your man cave.

Well that’s enough for me today. Just a little humor and sarcasm to start a Monday off in the right direction. Have a great day and remember CHUCK STARTS TONIGHT ON TV.

Hi Joe:)
I so agree that pop up ads and other ads similar to them suck.
I have no problem with advertisements that use part of the screen and don't force you to look at them, indeed many of those are handy..and targetted..if you google baseball bats or polish ham these ads are often related to that and the advertisers may have products you might want to buy.
Thats commerce and the American way.
And now they have ads at the beginning of some videos...the 15 second ones suck but I can put up with them, the 30 seconds or longer ones all suck. Net advertisers need to learn to be reasonable and play well with others:)
