I had a pretty good Christmas. At this point in my life I really find that I enjoy giving presents more than receiving them. My family opened gifts on Christmas Eve night and had a pretty good time. I was anxious to see what my family thought of their gifts. I got my mom some new sheets for her bed (800 thread count). I got my dad the commemorative Obama issues of Time, Newsweek and Rolling...

Home
I made it home to KY today after one of the more annoying flights. I made it to the airport today with no problems. Roads weren’t too bad and the bus and lightrail ran fine.

Observational Humor

Have you ever thought about how similar clipping toenails is to masturbating?
a) No one wants to think about someone else doing it.
2) You really don’t want to hear someone else doing it.
D) It’s kind of awkward to do in front of other people but perfectly acceptable by yourself.

Poorman's Slingbox →
