Getting High and Getting Mellow ....

Here is my entry for this week’s Mellow Yellow Monday, which was created by Drowsey Monkey.


I took this pic while down at the Buffalo River just south of here. While you’re enjoying your picnic, please be sure to wear your bright orange jacket and hat so you don’t get shot by some drunk deer hunter.

Speaking of being mellow …

I get lots and lots occasional emails from people who want me to put a link to their blog or commercial website here on my blog. In exchange they say they will but a link to my blog under their “friends of this site” or whatever on their website. I’ve never agreed to do this because I don’t see why I should put links to commercial sites that I don’t read or visit. Well, not for free anyway.

These are usually sports or entertainment blogs that make this offer to me. Sometimes it’s some people trying to create a new social networking site …

- OH THAT REMINDS ME!

I’m now on Plinky. Plinky is kind of like blogging, only instead of just blogging about whatever, they give you a prompt each day. Like “What is your favorite movie genre?” or whatever. And then you answer the question and hopefully go into some detail rather just give one word answers like so many people do.

Anyway, Jaffer introduced me to Plinky over on Twitter. So I joined. You can check out my Plinky page RIGHT HERE.


Back to whatever I was blathering on about …

I have also had a couple of porn sites as me to link to them. I thought that was odd, since I don’t actually post porn here. Or even do porn reviews. I wonder how someone would do porn reviews. There really aren’t that many storylines are there?

Anyhoodle, I got another one of those link exchange offers this weekend, but from someone I’ve never expected though. The subject of the headline read …

“YOUR MARIJUANA SITE”

Huh? Wha? Who? Me?

I have no idea how, or why a site that sells marijuana accessories would decide that my blog would be the perfect place for their link. I don’t recall ever telling everyone any great stories about my crazy pot smoking days. Mostly because I’ve never actually tried pot.

And I don’t remember any long rants on what an outrage the War On Drugs™ is. Or any rants about how pot should be decriminalized or even legalized. Although I think that a pretty good argument could be made for both of those things.

So, the only thing I can figure is that they found their way here from, um, YOU GUYS.

So, who is it? Who’s the big pot head out there that has lead some pot and pot accessory sellers over here wanting to exchange links with me? And if you want the link to the hippie lettuce site, you’ll have to email me for it. LOL

And how come no tequila and tequila accessory sites have contacted me. Especially ones that are willing to provide samples for review? That’s something I do know a few things about.

Goodbye 2008 ....

So it's 2009!

Well okay, it's not really 2009 right now, while I'm typing this. And it won't yet be 2009 when I post it. But, work with me here people, okay?

Anyway, I guess it's time for predictions and revolutions resolutions.

So here are a few predictions for 2009:

1. The hottest selling toy of the year will be the Governor Rod Blegojevich Action Figure. Mostly because of it's cool accessories.

- The doll comes with three different outfits for him to wear. A business suit for work. A jogging suit so he can run out of his house and meet with the media for a few minutes. And a bright orange prison jump suit.

- A bag full of hair care accessories. Combs, brushes, mousse, hair spray and a blow drier to help keep that awesome helmet head haircut looking good.

- A suitcase full of unmarked non-sequential $100 bills.

- And the best part is the kickbacks refunds that everyone gets. The doll is normally $19.99, but if you slip the store clerk a $5 bill, he or she will sell you the doll for only $9.99. So, you end up saving $5, and the clerk get's $5 under the table. It's a win-win situation!

2. A massive cold front will grip the U.S. in the middle of February. People as far south as Jackson, Mississippi and as far west as Las Vegas will be iced in. Al Gore will give a hastily put together speech saying that this is a result of "Global Cooling" and is man-made and can only be stopped by the elimination of electric and hybrid cars.

3. The Political world is rocked when pictures of Nancy Pelosi and Sarah Palin wearing leather dominatrix outfits and whipping Bill Clinton and New Gingrich are published by the National Enquirer.

4. Natalie Portman will see the error of her ways and show up at my door one night with the torn up remains of her restraining order against me in her hands ready to beg me for forgiveness and to take her in. But, he hopes will be dashed when the door opens and she sees Olivia Munn in my kitchen making me Beef Stew while wearing her Princess Leia outfit.


Then poor Natalie will scream "HOW COULD YOU!" at me. Or maybe at Olivia, it'll be tough to tell. Then she'll throw the torn up remains of my restraining order on the ground and run to her car while sobbing uncontrollably. She will then sit in her car for a while crying and cursing the bitter twist of fate that has befallen her.

Of course, Olivia will run over and clean up all the paper scraps on the floor, including the scraps that fell on the patio outside. She likes to keep the place tidy, ya know.

Okay, on to some resolutions ...

After my "How to be a Better Stalker and Stalkee" post, along with the "Room with a View" post that ended up with my neighbor making a cameo while I was video taping the view out my peephole, I don't think it's possible to raise the level of creepiness of this blog. So, I'm not even going to try. But, here are a few things I will make an effort to achieve ...

1. In honor my good friend Vinny Bond, I will no longer make fun of that decrepit, crime-filled, blight on the American South's landscape that gives ghettos a bad name city of Memphis that he calls home. (Hey, it's not 2009 yet!)

I'm doing this just for you Vinny. I hope you appreciate it.

Besides, how could I waste so much time and creative energy making fun of Memphis when a city like Detroit exists?

2. I will post on this blog a minimum of six days a week. Even if I just don't feel like it.

3. I will give up tequila completely.

4. Hell I'll even give up Tila Tequila completely.


5. I will make a real and honest effort to make sure that for the first time in the history of this blog, the number one search terms for the year will not be "Giada de Laurentiis boobs/cleavage/nude/naked/whatever."


6. I think I will even try to raise the intellectual level of this blog and try to be taken more seriously by not posting any pics of half-naked babes anymore.



Ohhhhhhhhhh darn! Looks like I had my fingers crossed when I made those resolutions!

Sucks!

Well, I guess I'll just have to come up with some vague resolution about being a better blogger and more decent person or some shit like that. Whatever.

Anyway, hope everyone has a great New Year and I hope that 2009 is the best year EVER!
