Okay, been a while. I get it. I am only a man here, not a blog writing machine!
Theres a few random topics that I write down during my days that I'd like to clear off the old to do list. Some of these make it here, but most end up swirling down the toilet bowl of unused and unsaid ideas. Most of the time I only write this thing to empty out my own brain, which my wife often reminds me that there is too much "useless" knowledge in. Seriously, what does she know?
(Which happens to be a lot, BTW)
I apologize if you've seen some ideas before, or if you happen to scroll back in time through this memoir, as it were, and you feel a certain De ja Vu.
I really dont think a lot of people read this anyways, I keep asking people to sign up for the updates, but Blogger being what it is, I have no idea who is on the list. So its kind of a gamble to see who I reach, or who even gives a tiny little seahorse shaped craplet (or is it crappelette?)
if you read this, and you know me, or even if you don't, comment below, email me, text me, facebook me, twatter me, link me in, instacrack me, or just say Hi when you see me in person.( yeah, right, like thats going to happen.)
Heres a quick two or tree tings on my list:

Netflix causes laziness. no duh.
I recently had surgery, had to lay around for three weeks, watched entire seasons/series of zombie shows, comedians' stand up concerts, several rock and roll documentaries, a crapload of cheaply made science fiction movies, food documentaries about famous chefs that no one has heard about, and a bunch of things that no one really cares about.
I recently allowed my housemates to use my netflix account, and I think they will be the first people in history to watch every program offered. They are older, retired people, and I have a strange suspicion they are even watching the kid's movies. you know, because they can.
Next topic:
Verbal Bondage, or Fifty Shades of Dave
There was a guy I worked with, passed away recently, gonna miss him. he was a funny guy, in his own way, Died of a heart attack, quite young, He had a thing, though. he would suck you into a conversation, seemingly innocuous, but before you knew it, CLICK< CLICK! verbal handcuffs were applied, Your mouth was covered in sound proof duct tape, and your were instantly adhered to the spot with no chance of escape. These conversations would go on for minutes, but seemed like hours, not entirely unpleasurable, but enough to make you uncomfortable, and wish for an end.
usually some topic of a bygone era like the 1970's or medical conditions that have been cured in the last century or so.
Although it was unpleasant to endure, I realize now that there is a lot worse things to do than to listen to what someone wants to tell you.
My favorite quote from him was "That is about as useful as a box of condoms in a whorehouse" I still don't know what that means, but I go with it anyways.
Rest In Peace, Dave. enjoy the never-ending, inappropriate conversations with anyone and everyone in the great beyond.
I have an idea for a business. I don't know how legal it is, or how ethical, but it came to me in light of certain political ideas being batted around. Two specifically.
Legalization of marijuana and building a wall.
If you could walk into a head shop (as we used to call them) without judgement, would you? of course you would. you could go in, buy two things, both perfectly legal and useful, only one is not socially acceptable, yet. the other thing is something almost everybody needs at least once in their life, and no one bats an eye when they see you carrying one. In fact, some people may even want to help you use it. Well, maybe that's true of both things.
Stay with me here, I'm getting to it.
If a wall gets built to stop traffic of marijuana across our borders, so be it. But what if marijuana is no longer illegal? but there's a wall stopping you.
You need a ladder.
And a bong.
Hence, Paul's Ladders and Bongs is born!
Homemakers and working guys could walk in without prejudice, purchase both or just one, and be on their way. A business like this could easily slip under the radar until full legalization. They are doing it with the stupid Vape craze right now, why not get ready for the inevitable?
Paul's Ladders and Bongs, "We'll get ya high"
I only have to find a venture capitalist, and I'm ready to go.
Olivia Newtown John was right. lets get physical.
As mentioned above,I recently had a partial knee replacement, When you think about it, its pretty freaking amazeballs. You get your flesh cut open, part of your bone ground down and drilled into, pieces of iron attached to your bone via a peg and hole fitting, some plastic pieces to allow flexibility, and you are good to go. Its that simple. Only thing is it hurts like a million times worse than the last time you stepped on a lego in the dark.
The physical therapist told me to do some excercises, I did them, and I am healed! Sweet Mother of Doilies, I am Healed! It was a series of repettive motions that I thought were useless and banal, but I guess that shit works. whoda thunk it? Albeit, not 100% but better than I was!
I thought I would never know the joy of running through a field of yellow spring flowers, unhampered by life's worries and complications again, my silky summer dress flowing in the light wind, with the sun shining down on me, my every sense tingling in unison with the universe.......ummm...never mind.
Im gonna stop here, in lieu of the awkward factor,
Im off for a few days for some much needed R and R, spend some time with my bride, and just pretty much screw around. I'll probably come back with a fresh bunch of topics in a week or two, so sign up on the right there for the updates, you'll get 'em, (I hope)
For now, Pistolgrip Out.
