| | | Really funny jokes--Awesome Senior Moment | | 2008-07-02 02:08:00 | | Here's a quote from a government employee who witnessed a recent interaction between an elderly woman and an antiwar protester in a Metro station in DC.There were protesters on the train platform handing out pamphlets on the evils of America. I politely declined to take one.An elderly woman was behind me getting off the escalator and a young (20-ish) female protester offered her a pamphlet, which she politely declined.The young protester put her hand on the old woman's shoulder as a gesture of friendship and in a very soft voice said, 'Lady, don't you care about the children of Iraq ?'The old woman looked up at her and said, 'Honey, my father died in France during World War II, I lost my husband in Korea , and a son in Vietnam. All three died so you could have the right to stand here and bad mouth our country. If you touch me again, I'll stick this umbrella up your ass and open it.' | | By: Life Disguised in Humor | | |

| And now... your moment of Zen. | | 2008-06-30 14:40:00 | | A few days ago Emma was giving me lip after I told her to do something (I really can't remember what it was), and asked why she needed to do whatever I asked her to at that time.Me: Why? 'Cuz I'm the boss, that's why.Anna, with her arms crossed and a smug look on her face: You know... you can be the boss without being bossy.Me, walking away so she can't see me trying not to laugh, all the while enjoying that fact that she stuck up for lil' sis: Wow, that was deep. How very philosophical of you, thanks for sharing. | | By: Almost Somewhat Positive | | |

This is a story that I had not heard, from Houston, of all places. This is from Sean McAdam of the Providence Journal. Thank you Sean. Here it is...********HOUSTON -- "Maybe it's something in the water in Houston. Days after Houston Astros pitcher Shawn Chacon tackled general manger Ed Wade in the home clubhouse at Minute Maid Park, the visitors clubhouse was the scene of another player-club employee altercation Saturday afternoon.Manny Ramirez shoved Red Sox traveling secretary Jack McCormick to the ground in an argument over Ramirez' ticket allotment. Several onlookers moved quickly to separate the two.Ramirez had asked McCormick for 16 tickets for Saturday night's Red Sox-Astros game, an unusually high number for day-of-game. In addition to handling all travel details for clubs, traveling secretaries also take player ticket requests for both home and away games.When McCormick cautioned Ramirez that he might not be able to fulfill his req | | By: Peter's Red Sox Forever | | |

We need to soften the blow.Milhouse:Well, if you just want to out-and-out lie ... [Lisa doesn't object] Okay, we could call it a, "temporary refund adjustment."Lisa: I love it.[Later, Lisa is on TV]Lisa: My fellow Americans and voting illegal aliens, I will not mince words.

| | The Best Leisure Moment with Your Family and Friends | | 2008-06-24 03:09:51 | | Are you a workaholic? According to the latest survey from the U.S, those peoples which working at least 14 hours or above is labeled as the “workaholic” person. In Japan, there are more than thousand of people’s dead of the “Karoshi” phenomena (The definition for Karoshi is ‘death from overwork’).
It is important to plan and organize our time schedule equally into three main parts: working, leisure and resting (Well, I known it is pretty hard to divide the time equally amongst these three main parts, but at least you should give it a shoot on it).
After a long working day, the best leisure for me will be the online casino. Well, is kind of boring playing the blackjack or poker by myself, that’s why I will also invite my family, friends or even my colleagues to join the fun bandwagon with me!

| | Unprecedented Moment | | 2008-06-12 21:36:06 | | How lucky am I to have the first post following such an unprecedented moment in history? A moment that will, I am quite sure, be followed by another just as unparalleled, yet even sweeter occasion.I'd have been lucky, as well, if Hillary Clinton had won the nomination, for it too would have been an extraordinary moment in our nation’s history. It is, in a great many respects, as incredible, and due our humble respect, that a woman came so near to the historic fortune now bestowed upon Barack Obama. Yes. We are all living in a rather astonishing time. An era that, to be quite honest with you, seemed like an unreachable dream. When one of these two amazing possibilities is within our grasp... I’d say we are rather fortunate to be witness.Now I don’t want to get ahead of myself because there are many miles to go.Much nastiness to overcome; hordes of dirty, low down, cutthroat operatives,Henchmen (and women) that have long been planning for such a day.

| | | if only for a moment... | | 2008-06-12 00:00:00 | | the old dog’s ears perked up -
the smell was unmistakable.
it was something he smelled
in his dreams many times
when he was younger,
something he’d been looking for
endlessly around playgrounds
and back alley garbage cans
and the market and along
the river and around every
fire hydrant in the city.
laughed at by his peers,
expelled by the pack for weird
behavior, he endured it all
stoically: being tortured by children,
being chased away by the restaurant
owners, nearly getting run over by
cars countless times. all in the
pursuit of his dream. relentless
pursuit of
nothingness.
as he got older, the dream faded
as something unattainable. days,
weeks, months without a dream
turned into years - grey and cold and
hungry, but acceptable nonetheless.
so he learned to live without it,
learned to focus on other things
homeless dogs should focus on
in order to survive,
resigned to the fact that
some lucky dogs get it,
but most don’t, and he never
considered himself lucky. | | By: GotPoetry - News for Poets. Place to Write. | | |

| | Of This Moment | | 2008-06-05 00:01:47 | | It is of this moment that we will be remembered… In our lifetime we’ve neared several "impossible dreams" but none quite like this; the dream of one man, one nation rising up to heights that were once unheard of, seemingly insurmountable. Now a new struggle begins, the precedent’s been set, and it’s up to us and the nuance of history to construct an even greater one. Yes. Yes. The unprecedented height of Martin Luther King Junior’s dream wrapped in immense struggle, awash in the blood of the black man, is now so tangible and so very near; unparalleled in the history of these United States where men and women are “free”, where they have the vote, where freedoms ring, where- Wait!Hold on one goddamned second!Son of a bitch!

| | Quotable: This Is Our Moment | | 2008-06-03 22:58:09 | | "America, this is our moment. This is our time. Our time to turn the page on the policies of the past. Our time to bring new energy and new ideas to the challenges we face. Our time to offer a new direction for the country we love. The journey will be difficult. The road will be long. I face this challenge with profound humility and knowledge of my own limitations. But I also face it with limitless faith in the capacity of the American people. Because if we are willing to work for it, and fight for it, and believe in it, then I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal; this was the moment when we ended a war and secured our nation and restored our image as the last, best hope on Earth.

| | Sad moment: Yves Saint Laurent dies at 71 | | 2008-06-01 19:56:00 | | One of our favorite French fashion icons, Yves Saint Laurent, died Sunday in Paris at the age of 71.He was widely acknowledged as one of the worlds majorly significant designers of the 20th century, "Yves Saint Laurent died Sunday at 11:10 pm," announced his foundation, the Pierre-Berge-Saint Laurent Foundation.The isolated French fashion-expert, who had retired from haute couture in 2002 after 40 years at the top of his trade, had been ill for some time. During his farewell appearance seven years ago, Saint Laurent had told reporters he had "always given the highest importance of all to respect for this craft, which is not exactly an art, but which needs an artist to exist."In his later years the depression that had haunted him all his life became more oppressive, and at his farewell bash in 2002 Saint Laurent admitted to having recourse to "those false friends which are tranquillisers and narcotics."

| | | Spur-of-the-Moment Emotion, or Showboating? | | 2008-05-09 16:01:00 | | The New York papers were all agog today about the fact that Cleveland Indians' outfielder David Dellucci was miffed by the show that Joba Chamberlain put on after he struck him out in the eighth inning of yesterday's Yankees-Indians game. The papers, as well as the "Mike and Mad Dog Show" were all over it. Fatso and Fruit Loops are kind of divided over it, with Russo taking Chamberlain to task over it.If you didn't see it, Chamberlain has been known to get all worked up if he strikes out the last hitter of an inning that he works, and he did it again on Thursday, with his fist pumps and yelling. After the game, Dellucci let it be known that he didn't appreciate the antics, and called them "bush league." Dellucci, who hit a game-winning homer off Chamberlain the previous game, also questioned why pitchers seem to get away with that sort of thing, while hitters are called unprofessional and show pitchers up by showing similar acts of emotion.

After a year of working out fingers to the bone and climbing, we have finally reached the google main page for something other than "blast shields" or "caleb michael lalinsky".Yes, folks... that's right... we're the number four google search result for "tentacle rape".Since we always seek to please our readers, we here at BSD would like to announce a new segment, called Tentacle Rape Corner, where we will be discussing all sorts of things tentacle related... both rape and yes, consensual sex... with tentacles involved, of course. We will also be working on other squid/octopus related subjects and are trying to hammer out an agreement with some Krakens for photo ops. Anyway... I hope you enjoy. | | By: Blast Shields Down | | |
| | Embarrassing Moment | | 2008-05-06 13:47:29 | | A very shy guy goes into a bar and sees a beautiful woman sitting at the bar. After an hour of gathering up his courage he finally goes over to her and asks, tentatively, "Um, would you mind if I chatted with you for a while?" She responds by yelling, at the top of her lungs, "No, I won't sleep with you tonight!" Everyone in the bar is now staring at them. Naturally, the guy is hopelessly and completely embarrassed and he slinks back to his table. After a few minutes, the woman walks over to him and apologizes. She smiles at him and says, "I'm sorry if I embarrassed you. You see, I'm a graduate student in psychology and I'm studying how people respond to embarrassing situations." To which he responds, at the top of his lungs, "What do you mean $200?"

Bill Clinton started this phenomenon and now Obama is trying to have his own. While Obama's repudiation of Rev Wright was needed, I hardly think this passes as a Sister Souljah moment.

| | This Magic Moment | | 2008-04-29 15:05:20 | | Breaking News!Today the President of the United States, George Bush, announced the development of a "Magic Wand" that would solve the oil crisis.At least that's the way I heard it. I'm not quite clear on the whole thing, as I had just stumbled into the shop while suffering from an excess of morning. But on the shop radio, I quite clearly heard the President mention "Magic Wand" at least three times in conjunction with high fuel costs and the need to drill in ANWR. (The Arctic national wildlife refuge.)I guess when you're a lame duck, you can pretty much say anything; in the sure and certain knowledge that no one is really paying any attention.Happy Tuesday all.

Most days I have a steady, but not overwhelming stream of work; some days I have too much work, not often, but some days; and then there are days like today, where I finished the bulk of my work by noon and I find myself sitting at my desk with ninety minutes still to go until freedom, sweet freedom finds me and liberates me from the confines of this desk and tiny, windowless office. (Wow, can you believe that actually was NOT a run-on sentence?) Sure, I have my toys to look at, but they are not really “play with me” toys so much as plastic statues of cartoon figures. They do little to alleviate any boredom that might set in other than remind me of how much I love cartoons and how far from watching them I currently am. Besides, at 36 I really can’t afford to be caught playing with my toys in the office. They gossip about me enough without my giving them more fuel.

| | It’s a Kodak moment | | 2008-03-20 00:14:00 | | At the age of 24, George Eastman made plans for a vacation to Santo Domingo. On a suggestion of a co-worker, Eastman bought a photographic outfit with all the paraphernalia of the wet plate days so that he could record the trip. However, Eastman cancelled the trip. The photographic outfit that he described as ‘a packhorse load’ fascinated him instead. Eastman took upon himself the task of making photography a less gruesome and inexpensive affair. Some years later, Kodak was born. The goal was simple, to make photography “as convenient as the pencil,” and that’s what this visionary entrepreneur did. He gave the world a device that had the power to make moments timeless, was easy to use and also easy on the pocket. “You press the button, we do the rest,” Eastman told the world. Just like Ekta Kapoor, Rakesh Roshan and Karan Johar, Eastman too was a believer in the power of the letter ‘K’, which made him incorporate the name ‘Kodak’ and it became one of the most valu | | By: IIPM-World | | |

| | Music of the moment | | 2008-03-11 07:11:00 | | Just a post about some of the interesting and really great music I'm listening to at the moment Snowden To start it all off I was introduced to this band in such an old school way as by "word -of-mouth", the other guitarist from Late Night Venture, Peter, had visited a friend that told him to check this band out, and he then told me, and I went to the myspace page of the band, having no expectations what so ever.But what hit me here was this sound that just caught my attention right away, somehow it kind of reminded me a bit of Interpol but at the same time it also had some references to the playfulness of Arcade Fire . Very rhythmic and with the excellent voice of the lead singer that proved a great diversity between the different songs. That along with dreamy yet staggering guitars, the distorted pumping bass and the cool drums, is just really hitting it off.It took me a very short while to realize that it would take at least 3-4 weeks to get their record sent to denmark, so had to g | | By: Late Night Illusions | | |

| | At This Moment | | 2008-03-08 07:44:53 | | All is perfectly right in my world. I am sitting in my office alone, early on a Saturday morning, and nobody but Bart is awake. He is off doing housework which should make me feel guilty, but actually at this moment, makes me feel lucky and blessed. I am going to join him soon and help because I worked late yesterday afternoon and evening and got a LOT done. I am not caught up, but I am very close to having my inbox empty for the first time in I don't know how long. I know that it was before October 4th because my oldest email was from that date.Yesterday, the biggest news I could blog about was Wilson's trip to the doctor for an pre-finalization physical which was uneventful and very fun. We had a wonderful time, he and I -- and he charmed the examining physician's assistant continuously. He was adorable. As you can see. In the first picture above he was pointing out all the different fish to me on the ceiling light overhead (It's really cool -- like an aquarium, hard to expl | | By: Never a Dull Moment | | |

| | | Completely random, non-movie related thought of the moment | | 2008-02-13 11:23:00 | | If I were so inclined, this would be my plan to destroy Microsoft:Surely you've seen the Ford Focus commercials that feature Microsoft's Sync system, an in-dash computer that takes voice commands to do such things as play music from an MP3 player and utilizes Bluetooth to make telephone calls via your mobile phone. The commercial is here:Apparently, to play a song, all you have to do is say "Play artist: X," and immediately, a song from "X" will start playing.As such, I've decided that, if and when I get any musical talent, I will start a band called "Play Artist." The band will become highly popular, thus leading to a similarly high demand to listen to their songs. By this time, the Sync system will no doubt be featured in hundreds of thousands of vehicles, and when the Sync user instructs the system to play a song, the Sync will be unresponsive, leading to consumer dissatisfaction, rage, and ultimately, destruction of the unit. In turn, stock prices for Microsoft will plummet while t | | By: Blog Cabins | | |

| | The Moment That Changed My Life | | 2008-02-04 08:29:00 | | Each life has defining moments. The moment that changed my life happened in a home for alcoholic women in 1976. I was in a discussion with Lois, another alcoholic from Brooklyn, and she was talking about her life. Midway through her talk, I felt intense warmth toward her and compassion flowed through me. The miracle was that I had had a very sheltered life and she had had a very tough life, but in that moment we were sisters and kindred spirits. When I got up and walked outside, everything was different—trees, cars, the street—I saw everything with new eyes. It took me much searching to find out what had happened to me. In a book by William James entitled The Varieties of Religious Experience (1902), I found that I had had a radical conversion. Did I answer a calling? I don’t know what happened to me except I knew that God had given me that compassion and love that I felt that day. I know that someone with an experience is never at the mercy of someone with an argument. From tha | | By: Changemaker: Healing Mind, Body and Soul | | |

| | | The Great Moment. Preston Sturges. | | 2007-12-19 10:22:27 | |
There are a handful of “Sturges moments” in The Great Moment. I suppose I’d define those moments as the ones where the predictable or familiar filmic device transcends artifice (even if it’s as artificial as the text a character is reading appearing on the screen for the viewer to read as well) and becomes... ideal. Sturges’s understanding of how to make a comedic scene work is amazing. His pacing is perfect, the editing, everything. But The Great Moment isn’t a comedy. It’s the rather depressing story of the discoverer of anesthesia, played by Joel McCrea.
Sturges is visibly passionate about the story (the film’s thesis being the discoverer got a raw deal), but he allows that passion to blind him from his strengths. So, even while there are those good Sturges moments and the film’s generally well-written, there’s a lot of problems. First, Sturges frames it as a flashback with, presumably, bookends. But he quickly discards the framing. Second, the end... once it be | | By: The Stop Button | | |
| | | Hallmark Card Moment in Enchanted Movie | | 2007-12-15 11:29:40 | | I especially liked the phrase where the guy (Patrick Dempsey, from Grey’s Anatomy Dr. McDreamy), said to Giselle, the Princess of Andalasia (Amy Adams) that she sounded like she just came out of a Hallmark card, with her ‘nothing-bad-ever-happens-in-this-world’, ‘everyone-should-be-happy’, and ‘anger blind’ attitude. LOL :) Amy Adams who stars as Giselle, has a very nice voice (including when singing), perfect for a fairytale Princess, & James Marsden actually has a singing talent too in the Enchanted movie. | | By: movie special | | |
| | Just Another Outstanding Moment | | 2007-12-14 00:35:09 | | As the mother of all campaign days draws near and many of us prepare ourselves for, or perhaps just now learn about and swing onboard, Tea Party '07, I want to share something special with those who may have missed it. I can't praise highly enough the recent statement made by Lawrence Lepard, the same fellow who created and paid for a full-page ad for Ron Paul in the Thanksgiving Day edition of USA Today. He explains why he paid a small fortune—his own money—to help advance the Ron Paul movement. It is a marvelous, stirring address that deserves the widest possible circulation. I quote:I believe that as American citizens we stand at an important crossroads in history. We are faced with a very important decision that will have repercussions for many, many years. We need to make a decision as to what we want America to represent, and to become. History will record the outcome of our decision. If we blow it, many more innocent people will die, and history will not be kind. As I say | | By: Republican Renaissance | | |
| | Quick Humor Moment and 100% True Story | | 2007-12-11 10:55:00 | | The scene: a hallway in my officeThe characters: myself and a female co-workerFemale: Brad, I need to know where to find…what’s it called?Brad: I don’t knowFemale: It’s that thing you put more things on…Brad: Ok…Female: Do you know where to find a….you put songs and stuff on it…Brad: A MP3 player?Female: No, it’s for your computer. Do you know where to find a… fuck?Brad: If I knew where to find a fuck, I would be much happier person.The words she was struggling for were “external hard drive.”The moral of the story: I have a very quick and fairly dirty mind most days so be careful what exactly you ask me.PS- You may have noticed nothing here about the Colorado Church shootings yet. There is a simple reason for this- I cannot find the names of the victims anywhere. I can find the name of the shooter in about 1,000 different places, but not one name of those who matter; the dead. Policy here at the Lemming House is to never print the name of a murdering fame seeking prick who should have used the first bullet on himself. My prayers to everyone who suffered a loss by this asshole. A place of worship is supposed to be a refuge from the threats of daily life. | | By: The Kanrei Home for Wayward Lemmings | | |
| | Pearl Harbor: A Moment of Remembrance | | 2007-12-07 18:14:00 | | Today, by the way, is a very important day in U.S. history, and an important day, I think, in the world, particularly for the allies.Today is the anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941. Many are well aware of the importance of this event. This awakened a struggling America to the brutal reality of Hitler and the Imperial Japanese (I say Imperial here because I will not in any way exclaim that the Japanese as a people are at all represented by the actions of WW2). Many lives were lost in this strategic, yet cowardly act and I feel there is cause to remember them, even if you are not an American.In remembrance: Pearl Harbor, the dawn of the last World War...(Don't click the read more, there isn't any more after this!)

So far the strategy seems to be a success, as such prominent blogs as Indie MP3, Nothing But Green Lights and Eardrums Music have already mentioned the track.

| | Back to Equilibrium for the Moment | | 2007-10-13 16:22:02 | | Tony is at Boy Scout Camp for the weekend, bringing the emotional level in the house way down. He is very intense and has an incredibly loud voice and loves to get in other people's faces to bother them with no provocation. So when he is gone it is a different place.Salinda got a court order saying she needs to stay home unless accompanied by an adult which she argued about a long time. We finally agreed to let her friend spend the weekend here since she couldn't go anywhere.When I blog I always envision a gallery of lurking critics thinking "Why would you let her spend time with someone she has gotten in trouble with?" So I need to respond to what I guess my critics might be thinking... First, the more parents try to keep their kids away from certain people, the more they are drawn to them. And, when they get to a certain age, they will do what they are going to do.Second, I am obeying the court order. I am keeping Salinda home. The girl is in legal trouble too, so if they screw up they get locked up. If they are here I can keep an eye on them, and if they leave the consequences are theres, but no judge is going to question me as to why I let her out of my house.Third, both girls have apologized and made it clear they want to make better choices. Sure, this could be a line, but it also could be an effort that should be validated by someone. It could be that the two of them together might actually use their predicament to make good choices.and finally, if I have to choose between not looking like a fool and being merciful and gracious, I will choose the latter always. I'm not stupid. I know I have been fooled and played many many times by my kids and their friends. BUT I will always say the words "I forgive you" when the words "I'm sorry" are uttered. My God is a God of not just second chances, but multiple chances, so I can do nothing less than extend that grace even when I know others will see me as a fool.So, we have a guest for the weekend and so far it has gone quite well...We had a peaceful night and the morning is beginning that way.The only hitch is that I have a horrible cold and I feel lousy.... | | By: Never a Dull Moment | | |
| | | Rolex Replica - Happy Moment | | 2007-10-09 11:08:00 | | I started an avalanche with imitation Rolex watches. If you don't know what I'm saying, see my previous post. The whole story started when I got an imitation Rolex watch as a present for a colleague going on retirement. I got one for myself too, the Oyster Perpetual Submariner. On seeing it, my wife wanted one, her parents wanted one. The Rolex replica Ladies Yacht master we ordered for my wife was delivered yesterday. You need to see her face when she opened the package. I have not seen her so content like that for a long time. Wish I had done this earlier but then, ever is better than never. It is amazing to see so much happiness the imitation Rolex watches have brought into our home. Her parents are still waiting for their own delivery. Now just in case anyone might be interested in these Rolex replica models, I have compiled a small list of credible sources with excellent costumer support and quick delivery all backed by 1 year guarantee and a certificate of quality. Top Quality Rolex And Designer Watches: Good source of top designer watches. Global Watches: All models of quality imitation Rolex watches.My New Watches: Not all models but they do have quality watches.Watchez: Aside from imitation Rolex watches , they sell other models of luxurious watches, Channel, Omega etc. I will add to this list as soon as I find other credible sources of imitation Rolex watches. | | By: High Quality Rolex Replica Watches | | |
