"..for it takes irony to appreciate the joke which is on oneself."
Jessamyn West

I have raised a retard. I swear to God, the things he says and thought processes that flow through his brain never cease to amaze me. Early on in this Blog, I promoted the idea of trying to give your kids more than you had. Don't force them to work during their early high school years and instead let them enjoy their summers unencumbered. As that dickhead Dr. Phil says, "how'd that work out for ya?"

I have ended up with an unappreciative individual that is not even remotely ready for the real world. What a slap in the face that will be, standing on his own two feet. I know, I know, I reap what I sow, but that what blog is for isn't it, anonymous venting??

His outrageously expensive school, has a relatively relaxed celphone policy. You can have you phone, and actually use it in between classes. Just don't use it during class. Kinna obvious don't you think? He comes home last evening, stating that his "idiot history teacher" confiscated is celphone. The idiot also told him, since it was the second time he had got caught, he could only get the phone back by having one of his parents personally come up to the school to obtain it. He went on to say "I told him, that is MY personal property and he HAS to give it back to me at the end of class" The teacher did not. "Can you BELIEVE that he did that?" he went on to state.

Dumbfounded, I asked him SLOWLY, "so let me get this straight, this IDIOT, took your celphone (the same celphone that you don't pay a FUCKING penny for) away from you because you're STUPID enough to knowingly break the rules and use it during class not once but TWICE??!! Do you have any clue how how ridiculous the statement you just made is?"

The blank stare and glassy eyed pause told me all I needed to know.

Ralphing Kisses After reading my buddy Escapes post about his faithful dog Maynard, it seems a good time for a dog story. The day before Christmas Eve, we had decided to go out to eat. I had started gathering the candy that I was going to put in the stockings and had left it on the corner of the end table out of site. Or so I thought. When we returned from dinner, I notice little bits of what looked like aluminum foil around the house. I followed the trail until it ended directly under the Christmas tree. There sat an empty bag ( a ONE pound bag mind you) of Hershey Kisses. Shaye the Weenie dog, well into her 10th year had eaten a pound of chocolate in our absence. She was also nowhere to be seen. Anytime we return to the house and she didn’t greet you at the door wagging her tail is a bad sign. It usually meant she did something she knew she would get in trouble for and was firmly entrenched under the back corner of the bed, her favorite hiding spot. She was there,...
"You Have 6,184 Unread Messages" (local spam magnet)   Got a call yesterday from an employee that stated he never checks his email and wanted me to look at something for him.  I wander back to his workstation and he points to his inbox in Outlook.  6,184.  That’s how many unread email messages he had.  I asked him if he uses his email address to sign up for things and he swears he doesn’t.  Yeah, right.  After deleting all his messages I notice that during the deletion time, he had already received five new junk emails.  I had investigated some enterprise spam programs for Exchange, but never followed through.  A former co- worker pointed me to ORF ( Open Filter Relay from vamsoft ).  They have a 30 day trial version with full functionality.  So I installed and configured it. It took less than 10 minutes, and I was dropping junk email off the server like a bad habit.  The program has a real time statistics counter.  F...
