……………You gotta have a front license plate on your vehicle.
That’s all fine and dandy but they are making it difficult to abide by the law. I called TXDOT today because I need replacement plates for my vehicle. I have personalized plates and I know there is a fee to have them replaced. The car wash damn near tore off my front license plate so I want a shiny new one with no defects. Is that so much to ask. Apparently so.
They told me that I have to pay for the plates since they don’t qualify for free replacement. Fine. I already know that and have already had to do this once before. Last time I did it I made a phone call, they ordered the plates, I went to pick them up and paid the measly $5.35 fee to get them. Now they tell me I have to drive all the way over to the tag office (at $4.00+ a gallon fuel and 15 mpg) to pay the fee, THEN AND ONLY THEN will they order my replacement plates which means (Yep, you guessed it) I have to drive back out there again (at probably $5.00 a gallon fuel by the time they get here) and pick them up. Re - Tard - Ed.
So - guess what I told her. “I’ll just have to run without a front plate and when I get pulled over by the Highway patrol for not having one I will tell him that the tag office refused to order my replacement plates”
What do ya think about that?

The dude that invented Pampers is sitting on a gold mine, no doubt about it.
Keep your trash can handy (that’s for the people out there who don’t have kids and have yet to really experience the disgusting foulness that can come out of your child’s butt).
I remember my Mom or Nanny asking me before our baby was born “are you going to change dirty diapers?” I said “of course….what kind of Dad do you think I am going to be?”
So when our little bundle of joy arrived I dove in head first. They don’t stink when the baby is brand new (and everyone will tell you this if you don’t have kids yet). This is true. They did not stink. They were pretty funky looking but no funky smell.
That lasts a couple of weeks. I can’t really remember how long it was before they started to smell like……….well…….Shit…….. but the day came oh too soon. Oh how I long for the days of dirty diapers that do not smell but they are gone forever. Sometimes there is just a little squirt in there which is an easy 1 wipe and diaper swap but sometimes I get in there and say “What in the name of all that is Holy is wrong with my child?”
Those of you with kids know what I am talking about. I mean there’s shit that looks like jiffy peanut butter (the crunchy kind), caramel, tar, mudslide and sometimes I just say “Honey - get the camera, no one’s every gonna believe this shit came out of a child!!”
Sometimes it is so liquified that it oozes up the back of her diaper and explodes out the back like a shit volcano. I mean what the hell causes that. It’s like Mount Shitius back there. There have been times that we were just like “man the hell with this, I’m giving her a bath” because a few wipes just wont do the trick. I’m not conservative when it comes to baby ass wipes but there is only so much shit I want to get on my hands while attempting to clean up what looks like a mud hole that a horse drawn carriage has driven through.
And all this while she is kicking and flailing stomping her little feet into the shit filled, mud slide, Mount Shitius shit flowing diaper pocket.
Parents you have been there. Don’t deny it. What goes in must come out no matter how nasty it looks or smells. If you are not a parent you are probably saying “no way would I ever want to change a dirty diaper” but you wait until they get here and that will all change. Stay tuned for more excitement. As my wife has said “this is the beginning of a new chapter in our lives”

Ok - first of all that’s an Oxy Moron. If it’s so simple, why in same hell is it a problem? You guys all know what I do for a living. I’m not complaining. If it weren’t for all the computer illiterate people in the world I would be out of a job so problems (no matter how simple or difficult) are good for me, bad for my clients.
This is how the equation works
1) Client has problem with computer
2) Client calls me with a problem and attempts to get “free” help over the phone
3) I explain (and not in these exact words) that I am not free tech support
4) Client proceeds to tell me how long it is going to take to fix the problem and how “simple” the problem is yet they cannot figure out how to solve it
I’m no genius but if I have a problem that I don’t know how to solve I am going to call someone who “specializes” in that field to solve said problem for me. Who am I to tell them how long it is going to take to solve the problem?
Where do people get off telling me how long it’s going to take to solve the problem that they are not smart enough to solve. If you’re such a wizard fix it yourself Einstein.
The bottom line is money. Some people do not want to pay for services. I mean are you going to ask the lawn guy to mow your freakin’ yard over the phone? Ask your hair stylist to cut your hair over the phone? Hell no. You have two choices:
1) Stop breaking your stuff
2) Pay for services as needed and don’t try to circumvent the system by calling and saying “I don’t know but you may be able to ‘walk me through this over the phone’

In Alexandria, VA there is apparently a private Islamic school that teaches it’s ‘okay’ for Muslims to kill adulterers and converts from Islam. The school gets it’s funding from the Saudi government and has 2 campuses in Virginia.
Why are we educating these people? Go home if you want an “Islamic” education. You want to live in America you get an American education. I don’t expect to go to Saudi Arabia and learn about the American culture. It’s common fuckin’ sense. You want to kill people for your beliefs do it in your back yard.
This is a quote from one of their textbooks “The Jews conspired against Islam and it’s people”. By the same token I guess you could say Al Qaeda conspire against the United States and it’s people every day. They hate us. Why are they here? To kill us…..that’s their purpose in life.
Where do we draw the line?
