Wednesday Snippets: The Weak that Wuz...

I think this is only the second time I've managed to ACTUALLY get a proper "Wednesday Snippet" post up since starting them... and after yesterday's rant, gosh knows a little lightness needs to be injected into the proceedings!

That said...

Space! The Final Frontier!
Space! The Final Frontier!

The Deceased

Now, here's a groom that didn't complain about the wedding in any way... Now, this HAD to have made for a rotten honeymoon. Many women complain that their husbands are lay-abouts and do-nothings... well... at least there was no "mystery" as to what he'd be like after they got hitched.

Space! The Final Frontier!
Space! The Final Frontier!

Best Stuff Man!

You know they have the BEST stuff in their evidence lockers. What's more disturbing is to MAKE the connection, she was using her son's cellphone... think about that... Good parenting AND smart! A winner is YOU!

Space! The Final Frontier!
Space! The Final Frontier!

HALEN!

The headline on the main CNN page was "Van Halen still in disarray at Hall of Fame induction". This was assuming they were ever IN array... which seems highly unlikely.

Space! The Final Frontier!
Space! The Final Frontier!

Sly

Sly Stallone is ON THE GAS!?! NO! NEVER! NO WAY! Boy, the next thing they'll say is Arnold has done things he shouldn't have too!

Well He Is Living California

No, no! Not that...

...nevermind...

Ripped

All I'm sayin' is I could sworn it was wholly natural for sixty-year-old men to look like ripped body-builders just by sayin' their prayers and eatin' their vitamins... Honest!

Space! The Final Frontier!
Space! The Final Frontier!

YouTuber

Somewhere, in Vancouver, two extremely wealthy young men are laughing their butts off... Chad Hurley and Steve Chen are mere empoyees... and already have their $1.65 billion to split...

Space! The Final Frontier!

NO RED NOSES

Rudolph will be most upset.

Space! The Final Frontier!

Black Hole

...and oddly enough, most are in Los Angeles working in the "creative deparments" of television production centres.

Nikki!

"You must give to that nice family that are trying to make their busly dreams come true... it's all about karma..."

Space! The Final Frontier!
Space! The Final Frontier!

Burnin up!

I do still believe in green house gasses and that WE are contributing to global warming and must do something... but here's a DUMB headline... NO WAY! Next thing they'll tell us is Fridge blamed for cold beer or Large weights blamed for crushing people.

Space! The Final Frontier!

Naked Man

Have you ever had one of those days, you're just SO tired that you need to take a nap au natural... and some darn people obviously just DON'T appreciate that fact... I mean, c'mon... there was a house, a couch, a blanket...

Space! The Final Frontier!

Horse Face

You know she's a Libertarian plant, right? I mean, she's so UNBELIEVABLY offensive that she has to be. I know MANY "hard-core-right-wing" Republicans who loath this woman... even the only hope for the Republican party in the next election, Rudy Giuliani and current post-Bush candidate John McCain want her to shut the hell up and crawl back into obscurity... Seriously, when the leaders of the party you support are saying "BUG OFF", your day is done. Ann, you're not helping your cause... you are hurting it... badly...

...unless, like I said, you're a Libertarian plant...

...and I ain't sure you ain't.

Granted, I'm still a little bitter about...

Thoughts and Wisdom From Ann Coulter...

To a disabled Vietnam vet: "People like you caused us to lose that war."

"Liberals love America like O.J. loved Nicole."

"I think we ought to nuke North Korea right now just to give the rest of the world a warning. ... They’re a major threat. I just think it would be fun to nuke them and have it be a warning to the rest of the world."

"I take the Biblical idea. God gave us the earth. We have dominion over the plants, the animals, the trees God says, 'Earth is yours. Take it. Rape it. It's yours.'"

"My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times Building."

Canadians "...better hope the United States doesn't roll over one night and crush them. They are lucky we allow them to exist on the same continent."

"Conservatives, as a general matter, take the position that you should not punish your friends and reward your enemies. And Canada has become trouble recently. It's -- I suppose it's always, I might add, the worst Americans who end up going there. The Tories after the Revolutionary War, the Vietnam draft dodgers after Vietnam. And now after this election, you have the blue-state people moving up there."

"Canada used to be one of our most loyal friends and vice-versa. I mean Canada sent troops to Vietnam - was Vietnam less containable and more of a threat than Saddam Hussein?" - Canada did not send combat troops to Vietnam.

Liberals "...are always accusing us of repressing their speech. I say let's do it. Let's repress them. ... Frankly, I'm not a big fan of the First Amendment."

About the 911 Widows "These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzis. These self-obsessed women seemed genuinely unaware that 9/11 was an attack on our nation and acted as if the terrorist attacks happened only to them... I've never seen people enjoying their husbands' deaths so much... the Democrat ratpack gals endorsed John Kerry for president... cutting campaign commercials... how do we know their husbands weren't planning to divorce these harpies? Now that their shelf life is dwindling, they'd better hurry up and appear in Playboy."

"A central component of liberal hate speech is to make paranoid accusations based on their own neurotic impulses, such as calling Republicans angry, hate-filled, and mean."

...and that's just a sampling of Ann's great intellect... there's other stuff too.

This blog is called One Old Green Bus. Yup, the bus is green. What colour is the bus?

One Old Green Bus

Allow me to start with we do not own nor are we selling a bus. Just had to get that out...

This blog was started in April of 2006... during a very bad time for me and my family when money was very tight and life was very hard.

We maintained a happier outlook on life by fantasizing... talking about what we would do when times were better... and as Sue and myself are Anglophiles, England factored greatly into our "plans".

During these bad times, while looking at news items which, at the time included items about London removing their venerable old Routemasters, I came across one photo of an old green bus... and somehow, my whole family adopted it. It became very much "our bus". (Details about "our bus" are available by clicking here.)

Like most of you, I'd heard about the fellow who'd made a million dollars selling tiny ads online... and the fellow who did trades and turned a paper clip into a house... so I thought, since we couldn't make our bus actually into "our bus" (well beyond our means,) I'd try an "online" appeal... to make the focused item of our hopes into a tangible thing in our lives...

More specifically, in a burst of adult/juvenile optimism, I had hoped to show the youngest member of the family, who at the time was still very youthful and impressionable, that dreams really could become reality if you hope and, more importantly, try.

Well, I'm pretty sure you figured it out... we had limited succes in this venture... and the youngest has now reached an age where she is more traditionally "teenaged" cynical than much else about the world, which isn't a dreadful thing... but there's a "good news" portion to this... our personal situation with money is better, life has improved, and some people really liked my rambling here... so, I decided to keep things going... Yes, I will "give up" on asking for help on a bus... and have to give up on even trying as hard to get the bus through online means... and yes, be far more realistic... but I don't mind this "turn" of things as I actually enjoy venting, trying my hand at humour, and generally keeping on online presence outside my usual things.

Thanks to those who were/are "Busly Dream" enthusiasts... I suppose that our buses for now will be single-deck with the letters "TTC" emblazoned on them... but this blog will live as does our dream! (It's just a little quieter on that latter bit...)
