Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads.
And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap.
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and eight tinny reindeer.
With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be St Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!
"Now Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!
On, Comet! On, Cupid! on, on Donner and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!"
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky.
So up to the house-top the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh full of Toys, and St Nicholas too.
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.
As I drew in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney St Nicholas came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
A bundle of Toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler, just opening his pack.
His eyes-how they twinkled! his dimples how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow.
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath.
He had a broad face and a little round belly,
That shook when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly!
He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,
And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself!
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread.
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings, then turned with a jerk.
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose!
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ‘ere he drove out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"
Merry Christmas everybody. Peace.

Useless “Celebrity” Headlines
Saw this headline on CNN.com: “Who is January Jones dating?”…a better headline may have been, “Who the fuck is January Jones?”
Saw this headline at various places on the internet: “Amanda Bynes announces her un-retirement.” Number 1, when pray tell, did this former child star that Disney rammed down our throats “retire?” Number 2, don’t you have to HAVE a career to retire from?
------------------------------
Because I don’t feel like delving into the social, political and otherwise inane aspect of recent news, I’m posting something one of my old Navy buddies, Sven, sent me. If you don’t like it, blame him.
We always hear about ”THE RULES” from the female point of view. Now we finally have the ”MAN RULES” written down.
And please note – they are ALL numbered ONE…ON PURPOSE!!
#1: This rule is first and foremost…Men are NOT mind readers!
#1. PLEASE learn to use the toilet seat. You’re a big girl. If the seat is up, put it down. You don’t hear us complaining when you don’t put the seat up.
#1. Sunday sports. It’s like the full moon or the changing of the tides. It’s going to happen. Let it be.
#1. Crying IS blackmail.
#1. ASK for what you want. Let’s be clear: subtle hints don’t work. Strong hints don’t work. Obvious hints don’t work. PLEASE JUST ASK!...And if you need to, ASK TWICE!
#1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question. Conversations are NOT required to answer a question.
#1. Come to us with a problem ONLY if you want us to solve it. This is what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
#1. Anything we said 6-months ago or longer are inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null & void after seven (7) days.
#1. If you think you’re fat, you just may be. You are a better judge of your shape than we are. This also falls under the category of “If you don’t really want the honest answer, don’t ask us the question.”
#1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and the way we said it makes you sad or angry, then we meant the other one.
#1. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done. NOT BOTH. If you already know the best way to do it, then do it yourself. Save an argument.
#1. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.
#1. All men see in only 16 colors. Kind of like Windows default settings. Peach is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. And we have no idea what fucking color mauve is.
#1. If a body part itches, we WILL scratch it. It is another thing we do. And it’s usually fun.
#1. If we ask you, “what is wrong?”, we will act as if nothing is wrong. We KNOW you’re lying, but it’s not worth the hassle.
#1. If you ask a question you don’t want an answer to, then expect an answer you don’t want to hear.
#1. Don’t ask us what we’re thinking unless you’re prepared to discuss such topics as baseball, football, basketball, how are fantasy sports team is doing, or how much our boss is fucking us over at work.
#1. Yes, you have enough clothes.
#1. Yes, you have enough shoes.
#1. I AM in shape. ROUND is a shape.
#1. Thank you for reading this. Yes I know I’m sleeping on the couch tonight. But you know what, we men don’t really mind that. It’s kind of like camping.

This ends the entertainment portion of your day. Get back to work.

The non-LeBron James/World Cup Blog
Other than this sentence, there will be absolutely NO mention of either LeBron James or the soccer World Cup in this entry.
-----------------------------------
The BP Fuckup
Since my last posting, BP Oil had an oil rig blow up on them & as of this date is still spewing who knows how much oil into the Gulf of Mexico. Of course if they had been following regulations, they wouldn’t have had their problem. Of course if the MMA had been enforcing those regulations, then BP wouldn’t have been able to cut corners AND they wouldn’t have had this problem. Of course if the Dumm-ya Administration of war profiteers hadn’t been de-regulating stuff like this, then…of hell, you get the point.
Personally, I blame Ronald Reagan for most of the problems we have now. He started all this deregulation bullshit back in the 80’s anyway.
BP has T.V. commercials now that talk about how they’re so concerned and being oh so helpful to people in the Gulf Coast. One commercial shows a guy who’s supposed to be a claims processor. The commercial makes a big deal about how hard they’re going to work to file claims and how there’s a 20-billion dollar claims fund…yeah, right. The claims fund is only established because they were forced to by Obama…and as far as how “easy” and how much they’ll help people – that obviously remains to be seen.
The other commercial has a guy who’s supposed to be part of the cleanup management crew in the Gulf Coast and it goes on about how he an BP are doing “whatever they can” to facilitate the cleanup. Hope you plan on being there a long fucking time pal.
-----------------------------------
Things You Read About That Make You Go, “What the Fuck?”
I recently read that Sarah Palin’s oldest daughter, Bristol, makes around $50,000 in speaking fees. Her primary subject is talking about abstinence for teenagers. If I recall correctly, she’s the daughter who, in 2009, had a child when she was 17 or 18 years old. Her talking about abstinence is like me giving diet tips. And $50K per speech? Do you think she would get paid that kind of cash if she was from an inner city and was black? I guess it’s a good deal if your mom is the highest profile, although arguably, the dumbest female in America.
Personally though, I feel this is a sign of the apocalypse.
Useful Health Tip
The next time you have a severe cough, eat a box of Ex-Lax. Within a couple of hours you’ll be too afraid to cough.
And speaking of offensive bodily functions, let’s talk about…
-----------------------------------
Flatulence
Yeah, flatulence. Flatus. Farting. Pass Gas. Breaking wind. Air Biscuit. Cheek Flapper. Poot. Cut the Cheese. Seam Ripper. Or, as we call it in my house, splitting the beans.
Anyway…
I bring it up (so to speak) because I recently read that humans actually rank 8th on the list of creatures on the planet in producing gas. Or so people who study this stuff say. The animals that produce more gas than us are:
Elephants
Cows
Sheep
Goats
Camels
Zebras
Dogs
The article I read didn’t say that elephants bust wind more often, but judging by their size and the amount they eat, the sheer volume of any one fart ALONE has to be more than a human can produce in just about any period of time..
By the way, the article also noted that termites fart more than any animal on the Earth. I guess that makes sense since all they do is eat, shit, procreate and build termite mounds. So call Orkin…call Terminix…hell, call Al Gore! Termites are the real reason for global warming.

Greek Protest Dogs
Check out these stray dogs that always seem to show up at the protests/riots…so -
Check out this link: http://photo.newsweek.com/2010/5/greek-protest-dogs.html
------------------------------
Plane Crashes
Recently, a plane run by Afriqiyah Airlines crashed in Tripoli, Libya killing more than 60 people. There was a single survivor, a 10-year old boy, whom the last time I heard was still in critical condition. Naturally, the media hails his survival as a “miracle.” When is the media going to stop referring to these incidents as miracles? You know what this really means? It means God lost out on a no-hitter in the 9th inning.
------------------------------
Facebook
I had someone who I knew many years ago send me a friend request on Facebook and asked me if I was really “anti-Christ.” I thought this was kind of an odd question because while having been accused of being the anti-Christ (after all, my first, middle & last name all have 6-letters in them), I’ve never been asked if I’m against Christ. So, I sent an e-mail to this guy asking what he meant.
He responded that on my Facebook page it said under political views I was anti-Christ. I kindly responded that it says I’m an ANARCHIST, meaning I’m all for overthrowing the government (but not by violent means).
The good thing about Facebook is that you can pick and choose who you want to give access to your page. Needless to say, I didn’t give this person access to my page because A: I didn’t remember them as being the sharpest knife in the drawer, and B: it wasn’t like I was friends with them back in the day anyway.
Another fun thing about Facebook is that you can see guys who are now grey haired and/or bald, while you still have a full head of hair…although graying.
------------------------------
Arizona
As you know, the Arizona legislature passed an immigration law into effect recently that basically allows law enforcement to racially profile non-whites (read: Mexicans). It’ll be interesting to see how this law plays out. I know there is an immigration problem in this country, but I don’t think racial profiling is the way to go.
It was announced this week that in a related law, you can now only fry beans once.
------------------------------
The Times Square Bomber
How about this fucking guy? Guy has lived in U.S. for several years…for whatever reason, decides he’s going to become a jihadist…goes back home to Pakistan where he learns how to assemble a car bomb…comes back to the U.S. where he now buys a car, fills it with a bomb (built incorrectly it appears), and tries to blow up Times Square. One problem…the guy did everything but leave a video behind saying he did it and how to find him.
The bomb apparently didn’t work because he had the wrong type of fertilizer. It seems that the really explosive type can’t just be bought anywhere because of one Mr. T. McVeigh. You may remember him from Oklahoma City.
Then this guy walked away from the car (apparently he didn’t want to go so far as to blow himself up), but left not only the keys to the car in the vehicle, but also his freaking apartment keys! Duh!
And to top everything off, he missed “erasing” the VIN number off the engine block and NYC police were able to track him down within hours.
Remember the good old days when the terrorists stayed in Europe and the Middle East and blew themselves up there?

Warning!! This site contains language they may be offensive to some people. If you do not want to read profanity...then LEAVE NOW!!
Pet Peeves
Don’t you hate it when you ask someone a question and they give you 5-minutes of bullshit and never answer the damn question? It’s especially annoying when it’s a simple yes or no question.
Or…
When someone is telling you a story and it takes forever for them to get to the point of the story? Do I really need all the minutiae?
Health Care Revisited
The health care bill was voted into law after my last entry and as I thought would happen, a lot of people lost their freaking minds about it.
Why is everybody so surprised? Obama said from the time he declared his candidacy that his priority was to establish a health care reform bill. Then when various member of congress, Republican and Democratic, balked, he basically said kiss my skinny black ass and came up with his own plan. And I loved how when the bill was passed, Republicans said they would not cooperate with the president any longer. Are they kidding, they didn’t cooperate to begin with.
And I love how Sarah Palin put on her web page (or was it her twitter page) that it was time to RELOAD. Nice way to incite the uneducated redneck reactionary assholes to potential violence, yet step back and say that it’s a comment that was misconstrued. I do wonder though, who thought that statement up for her and how long it took them to explain to her that it could have a double meaning.
You know what I think really bothers people about the health care bill and the Obama presidency? The fact he’s black. Yes I think racism is at play. Not only that, but I really think that some of his more vociferous opponents & some of the more rabid TV/radio pundits REALLY want to use the n word when talking about Obama. So instead they attack him as maliciously as possible.
I also love it when I hear about these morons who contact their local congressperson and leave threatening messages. These morons obviously don’t realize that leaving a threatening message is against the law and can get you jail time. I’m sure the people who get arrested will pull the freedom of speech defense, but freedom of speech means saying things like you suck, or health care sucks not, “I hope you die” or “It only takes one bullet.”
Big Corporations SUCK!
I love it when a big company fires, over the course of a year, about 2000 people and claims it’s because of economic reasons. Especially when that company over the course of that time frame reports quarterly earnings of over $250-million dollars. Let me repeat that…the company reports earnings of over $250-million dollars a quarter. That’s over a BILLION dollars a year in profit and it’s not fucking enough. No wonder this country is near bankruptcy.
That’s all for now. Not the most entertaining entry I’ve ever written, but hey, Barry Bonds didn’t hit a home run every time up either.

The ‘Rat is finally back and he knows you were waiting with bated breath to hear his latest.
You may be wondering why there was such a long time between entries (then again, you may not). There are two reasons. Number 1: the computer the ‘Rat was using was dying a slow horrible death. So much so that he had to do a system restore 4 or 5 times. Finally, in November while trying to do a system restore, the hard drive basically said “Fuck You” and died.
Reason number 2: the ‘Rat just got lazy. So sue me.
--------------------------
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame
One question I have about this year’s rock and roll hall of fame selections. Can someone, ANYONE tell me just how the FUCK ABBA is in the Hall of Fame? I mean if you list people in the Hall of Fame alphabetically, they’re going to come before Chuck Berry. Un-fucking-believable. And Genesis makes it but not Judas Priest?
--------------------------
Our Government at work
During the week March 8, U.S. citizens received a letter in the mail from the census bureau telling us that we could expect to receive our census form in the mail during the following week. Un-fucking believable!
I’d like to know how many millions it cost to send a stupid fucking letter to tell us something most of us already knew was coming. It reminded me of 2008 when the government spent $40-million to send out letters telling us we were going to get tax rebate. It appears there is finally something we can’t blame on the Dumm-ya administration.
--------------------------
Health Care
The health care issue looks like it will pass, if it hasn’t already (I stopped paying attention a long time ago) and everybody seems to be pissed off about it. Everybody except me that is. I don’t know what’s in the bill and I don’t really care (I’m fortunate enough to have health care through my employer), but there seems to be something in the health care bill/idea/program that pisses everybody off. I think the problem is that people are just picking one point of the issue and getting so worked up that their losing focus. Of course I don’t think ANYBODY has read the whole thing and that doesn’t help the issue either. When this thing gets passed, people are going to see that we’re not going to turn gay, communist or whatever. Lighten up people. Of course once this is passed, maybe Obama can start worrying about less important things. Like jobs, or pulling troops out of Iraq.

This ends the entertainment portion of your day. Now back to your regularly scheduled psychosis.
