And now, some Google Earth pics…
Great picture. Years ago my wife, her cousin and I went canoeing on Lake Minnewanka. I am NOT a water person so I like to be CAREFUL around it. Those dastardly girls were standing up and rocking the canoe just to watch me squirm and having a big laugh at my expense!
Lake Minnewanka is a popular scuba diving spot. Freaking cold even in the summer!!

When Did Rick Santorum Grow A Beard?
And that’s funny too.
My computer has been acting up for months. Well on Thursday it crashed big time with that stupid blue screen. Spent about 12 hours with Norton technicians trying to fix it. After the first two technicians failed and said to call Comcast I got a call back from Norton that said they have a special department that could fix it for $99.99. It had a BOOT.CIDOX virus and fortunately the 3rd guy fixed it in about hours and it’s working better than it has in months.
Giving thanks to the FSM once again.
Bummer.
Did it cost you less than the $99.99?
No I paid the 99.99 but thought I was going to have to buy a new computer so it seems like a bargain.

Happy 65th birthday to Cheap Trick’s guitar virtuoso Rick Nielsen
Rick Nielsen also wrote the theme song to The Colbert Report.
Congress Fiercely Divided Over Completely Blank Bill That Says And Does Nothing
This morning’s political shows were divided about equally between covering this story, NSA, and Obamacare.
Now that is humorous!
Yeah, this should work:
Wealthy Tech Investor Backs Plan To Split California Into Six States
Your link didn’t work for my machine –
found this one did.
He belongs with the ditzy Danas (Issa and Rohrbacher).
Issa’s a Darrell. Rohrabacher’s a Dana.
doh! Of course – well it does begin with a D for dullard!
(his surname begins with D)
All I’m getting for Christmas is a $1,500 furnace repair. 😦
Dang, only ‘naughty’ boys and girls are supposed to get coal.///
Certainly rotten timing on the furnace’s part!
😦
Well that isn’t fun at all.
Yikes, that’s a biggun’
This is what happened two doors from me last night.
Huntsville man accidentally shoots self with shotgun after argument with girlfriend
Glad he took ‘gun safety’ classes.////
Thank goodness he only shot himself.
Billionaire William Koch is outraged that he got duped by counterfeit wine makers. Shhh….hear that? It’s the world’s micro-ist violin….

Life is so difficult for Billyboy. (he could feed and clothe the world twice over with the money he’s ‘wasted’ on fake wines).
Speaking of Dana Rohrabacher….

Gross. What the hell were they doing in that house?
That’s a whole lotta awesome, right there. 😆
I am LMAO at this story! 😆
Small town in Alabama accidentally hires black drag queens to dance in Christmas parade, town freaks out
She didn’t dig any further on “The Prancing Elite?” Seriously? 😆
Well, they donned them now their gay apparel.
“Suzanne Massingill, a talent agent in Mobile who advises the Prancing Elites…”
That was some douchey advice she gave them.
Claudia needs to grow up! I’ll wager her daughter didn’t have a clue about the dancers being drag queens until her Mama made a big effen deal!
The dancers are certainly welcome on the west coast!
Suddenly thinking of the movie To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything, Julie Newmar.
Yeah, or The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.
Your Sunday LOLcats – Missile Toes Edition
OFSM – those are hilarious.
Great diversity this week:

Sure, you want tattered shredded
or mutilated?
Reminds me I haven’t been by Bushorchimp or the Smirking Chimp is a while
I still get e-mails from Smirking Chimp. I need to check in on Bush or Chimp and DubyaSpeak.
According to some of the replies, this is in Reading, PA.
Fantastic. 🙂
Wow, I’d love to see the Grand Canyon like that. Or at all. 🙂
I had the privilege back in the summer of 1978. My sister was living in Tucson, Arizona at the time, and we stayed at her place. Then we made the long drive up the state to see the Canyon. It was miles and miles of desert, interrupted by the occasional rise every ten miles or so, then another ten miles of desert. It was kind of cool because you could see up to three or four thunder storms going 10-20-30 miles off in any direction.
Finally, we reached Gates Pass, two pillars on either side of the road. Go through them and you are suddenly struck by a literally breathtaking view of the Grand Canyon. Thirty-five years later I’m still amazed by the view I got that day. It was worth missing a couple of weeks of work. I didn’t have a choice. My father already bought the plane tickets, so I had to tell my boss I was going on vacation. But it was worth it.
Apparently I have a strong mind. I find this stuff fascinating.
Not that hard once you recognize a few repeated words.
Yes, but the amazing thing is how quickly your brain can make the substitutions without thinking about it.
Boeing engineers. No wonder the 787 took so long to get in the air.
Well Badmoodman, at least you have the Blackhawks.
The people who are saying A&E has no right to censor Phil Robertson…
