I am listing to one side

I am updating an old post (from February 2007), for a friend.
Well almost updating it, first up is walking Otis the Wonder Dog outside for his morning pee and poop.
Me walking Otis is not a pretty sight.  Actually Otis walks me in the sort of way a boat drags it’s anchor across the bottom of a lake [...]

Earth Day Haiku

Some Earth Day Haiku
Al Gore says we suck
We are killing the planet
Cheney is an douche
Plant a tree today
Recycle all of the trash
Cheney is a douche
Monkeys fly at dawn
Their carbon footprint is small
Cheney is a douche
Celebrate the earth
It is not that bad a place
Cheney is a douche
Your carbon footprint
Should be smaller everyday
Cheney is a douche
Solar power [...]

Drumming up some Earth Day Love

Happy, happy pozitoodinal love folks.  It’s a chilly, damp New England morning here in the Happy Valley, a mere day before Earth Day 2009.  What are your plans for Earth Day?  Me, I am bringing my drum and going to UMASS for a celebration tomorrow afternoon that ends with a drum circle.  Not sure how [...]

Ramalamadingdong – ha, he wrote dong.

I thought I’d try something new.  Let’s see how far I can type with a headful of the best IPA (green  flash and Smuttynose) along with an open window and a cold spring rain falling.
Currently, as opposed to noncurrently, the support system for my head is in serious jeopardy.  What the hell does that mean.  Put it [...]

Martooni time

Bob walked in the door with a bottle of stoli vodka and a container filled with garlic stuffed olives.
I knew it was going to be a good night.
First up, I grab two silver martini glasses and fill them with cold water and a few ice cubes and set them aside.  Did you know that pure [...]

Dough Therapy…food for thought

A pozitoodinally righteous top of the morning to everyone.   As I look out the window from my vantage point on the couch – yes I am sitting here with my leg elevated,  I spy my Vermont weather stick and it is arched straight up which means it either saw another stick it found very attractive or [...]

The beautiful one and crabgrass

Ouchie….no double ouchie.  Another PT session with the beautiful one yields yet another threshold of pain.  I walked today for the first time with no brace and no crutches.  It wasn’t pretty.  She laughed, I being a male with an ego the size of Nova Scotia smiled and said no problem.
Mother effer, it hurt like [...]

Beautiful and deadly

She walks out into the waiting area and calls my name. 
I look up to see who is calling me and I am stunned. 
I don’t answer until we make eye contact and then like a bumbling teenager I simply nod my head. 
She stands there smiling at me, gesturing me to get up and follow her. 
Finally, I get [...]

Stamp of Approval

I am sitting on my couch watching the clouds move from my right to my left.  This means they are moving east to west.  From a meteorological perspective it means the low pressure must be to the south of me moving northeast.  There is a cold New England April rain falling and it’s a brisk [...]

I am Iron Man

Where is Ozzy when I need him.  Damn.   Hey Robert Downey Jr., piss off (just kidding).  For those who don’t like rock and roll when rock and roll was rock and roll don’t click on this link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MII3ns2KTBc&feature=related  for the rest of you.  Click on the link and enjoy because it’s live from Paris in 1970 – when [...]
