Posted in Uncategorized on October 25, 2006 by rantsofatwinkie

I just came across this today but apparently it has been out there for a long time. I’m slow…

Plus, I have nothing important to rant or muse about today. I’m boring! LOL!

Music: Weird Al – White and Nerdy

So, in order to keep the ying/yang thing, we need something to balance out the annoying video I posted earlier featuring Oprah Jr. err… I mean Tyra Banks. So, here you go! Enjoy!

Entertainment: Tyra Banks gets more and more annoying

I didn’t think it was possible, but Tyra Banks is getting more and more annoying. I am surprised “The Soup” on E! never got a hold of this doozie.

Politics: Is it November yet?

The onslaught of snail mail and campaign phone calls has been increasing more and more the last few weeks. I hang up on the automated messages that call our house and the flyers that come in the mail go straight into the trash. Am I a bad member of society? Here in Michigan the Governor position is up for election – we either reelect Jennifer Granholm or elect Dick “Mr. Amway” DeVos (or, Double-D as I like to call him). Since Amway is big into cleaning products, I would have figured his campaign slogan to be something like, “We’ll clean up Michigan just like we clean your floors.”

So, Lexus announced that their new LS series will park itself. I am pretty sure the “LS” stands for “Lazy Sh*t.”

Ed Benedict died back on 8/28, but the news is just hitting now. He is the cartoonist who brought us the Flinstones (among other lovable cartoon characters).

Books: iWoz has arrived!

Posted in Uncategorized on October 5, 2006 by rantsofatwinkie

My box from Amazon arrived today with the two books I ordered. One is the iWoz book that I mentioned in a previous post. So, I am going to be incognito the next few days most likely as I try and plow through this.

Plus, I have a big race coming up at the end of the month that I’ve been getting ready for, hence the lack of daily posts. But, does anyone read my blog anyways? *sound of crickets* LOL!
