...google latitude is dangerous.

A few months back I frinally got myself a cellphone.... Normally, if its new technology, I have it... Hell, I still have the first Sony walkman CD player.... I was cool like that!!! Yet, I stayed away from cellphones.... anyway, moving along, I got the Blackberry Storm... I then added Googles Latitude which can track where your cellphone is.... Then went on a trip to Florida without the wife... Get your head out of the gutter... If you read my blog then you know I took my two kids with me. Well, day 3 I let the cellphone go dead and the wife started freakin out because i didnt call her... OK, I admit it... I soooo enjoyed that moment. The last place it showed was a Hotel in florida city... She actually had my Mother call all the hotels to try and find us... They found the hotel we were last at, but we had checked out that morning...

Later that day we stopped at a wendy's at Fort Myers Beach. I plugged in the cellphone to charge it... After eating we returned to the car and I called home... No answer... So I called my parents... Mom filled me in on their investigation and how my wife was worried... I then called my wife again and she answered this time.... She also logged on to see where we were in real time. This is the moment I am so glad that my kids were with me...

"What are you doing at that house?"
"We are in the parking lot of a Wendy's"
"No, you are at a house, I can see you"
"No, remember when i told you it wouldn't be exact?"
"Why does it show you at a house?"
"Yecenia!! (wife's name) we are in the parking lot of a Wendy's"
"Whatever!" she says....


Now imagine if I didn't have my kids with me!!!

I just looked myself up online right now.... lol, it shows me at my nextdoors neighbors house!!!!! Woot!!! More trouble, the wife is away with the kids....

Bulbs.

Bulbs, Lights out

Light bulbs.... My wife is always one to take a deal and run with it... somewhere in her daily life someone was pushing compact fluorescent bulbs and GAVE her a bunch. Fine... As shown in that link the wackos are finding their new bulbs to be whack!! Yet, if it is free to me all I am for it!!! She mentioned we should switch out the old for the new because they would save energy. I explained while that was true the old bulbs were brighter and I already paid for them... Even though it is true that we would save some money in the switch, what are we supposed to do with the still useable old bulbs??? So we have them as replacement bulbs.... Don't worry wackos we do not have many bulbs in our house as it is...

Here is my biggest problem... They want us to recycle them when we dispose of them... I say go back to the fucking drawing board and come up with something that doesnt need to be recycled unless that just means you put it in the blue trash can instead of the black trash can. The environitwits might have the time to sort their trash and hoard broken shit to be taken to a "green day pickup day" but i do not.... and do they really think that the majority of Americans will sort and keep their broken CFL's? Hell I have broken several of these bastards myself already... I know there is mecury in them so I was careful on the cleanup.... but how many Americans will be doing the same? They are forcing a dangerous item into the American household!!!

All Americans know, a bulb breaks... you sweep it up and put it in the trash!!! Not if its a CFL!!!! Get out the haz mat suit and clear the room!!!!! Then clean it up and put all the materials, as well as the cleaning materials into a sealed container!!!! Yea, that is going to happen!!!

BAN THE CFL... go back to the drawing board come up with something that will work!!!

Update

Oh yea, on topic today is the day we are going to have earth hour. oh goodie.... I wonder how many CFL's are going to be broken as they go to switch them off!!!!

According to the article i linked above we should...

Make it fun by having dinner by candlelight, taking a stroll under the stars, or playing card games by a fire

Candles? you want us to burn candles? What about this or this or this?

Playing cards by a fire? You want us to burn a fire to symboloze love for earth? I thought the burning of items was what we were trying to stop!!!!!!

Methinks the nitwits need to circle the wagons and try again.

Now for the record the lights will be off in my house... not because someone told us to, but because we only have them on when we need them... Because we like to save Money.

John J. Miller over at the Corner has similiar reasoning.

Roger Ailes is a moron who thinks.... if it doesnt happen in his life it doesnt exist.

If someone bitches about it on the internet, it must be true.

I've been using CF bulbs for years. I've never had one fail to work or burn out prematurely. In fact, I've bought them on sale (4 for a dollar) and the problem I have is that I've got a bunch of them sitting on a shelf because the current ones haven't burnt out. Based on my experience, therefore, CF bulbs are infallible.

You just happen to be perfect while I suck... So in my suckness when i break a standard bulb I just sweep it up.... When i break a CFL I need to evacuate the area!!!! Being that there are more idiots like me, and not perfect like you... Shouldnt we reconsider the CFL's?

Ah then there is this Freddie doesn't like the article at all!!! He would rather wait for studies that will be slanted to prove that CFL's are great... and they only fail because of the consumer... Notice his comment...

You see, most people are stupid, and don’t have any clue how to evaluate data.

I agree on that Freddie, and that is why CFL's should be banned. Stupid wins out. Stupid will break the CFL's and then let their kids inhale nice quantities of Mercury....

My life...

Let me set the scene... Yesterday I awoke around 1pm after having a short nap ( I work the night shift) to hear a movie start in the living room... My children are gone so my wife has rented a video just for us (just for her!) So I stumble out half awake and sit down on the couch to see what the movie is about. I do not ask what the movie is, because I know that will just lead to a verbal dance...

"what movie did you get?"

"Guess"

"I do not know, come on, what did you get?"

"You wont like it"

So instead I sit through the previews that come on automatically.,.. Not looking good. Because it is all stupid previews I do not remember all of them, But two stand out, and should give me pause about the movie she rented. Religulous and Control Room. Just before the movie comes on.... Wife says;

"you are not going to like it, go to your room"

Meaning the movie is going to be a idiot left wing nutjob atacking what you hold near and dear to your heart. Go to the computer room were you will be happy.

I stick it out... and then the movie starts... W. Well she was right. So I stand up and turn to her.


"If the media was fair, we could already make a movie about Obama and all his mistakes, blunders and fuck ups in his less than 100 days in office... Sure Bush often stumbled in his speeches, but atleast we knew it was him and not the TOTUS. Atleast Bush had honor and dignity.... He didnt give a VIDEO collection to a foreign head of state!!!! (that wouldnt play back in their country. From Rush;

...what do you think the gift Obama gave Gordon Brown is? It's a traditional thing. The first time the leader of a country shows up, you give them a gift. Let me first tell you what Gordon Brown's gift was. "Mr Brown's gifts," there were three, "included an ornamental desk pen holder made from the oak timbers of Victorian anti-slaver HMS Gannet, once named HMS President. Mr Obama was so delighted he has already put it in pride of place in the Oval Office on the Resolute Desk which was carved from timbers of Gannet's sister ship, HMS Resolute.

"Another treasure given to the US President was the framed commission for HMS Resolute, a vessel that came to symbolise Anglo-US peace when it was saved from ice packs by Americans and given to Queen Victoria. Finally, Mr Brown gave a first edition set of the seven-volume classic biography of Churchill by Sir Martin Gilbert." Now, this pen set, this pen set contains wood from the ship that Obama's desk in the Oval Office is made of. These are well-thought-out gifts given with tremendous respect. Do you know what Obama gave Gordon Brown? Twenty-five DVDs of classic American films. Not even Blu-ray, standard definition DVDs that Gordon Brown could have purchased on Amazon or Barnes & Noble or anywhere, if he had any desire to see them.

Wow... What a winner we have in the whitehouse.... So I get up and go into "my room" like a good boy and surf the web...
