In Heaven There is no Beer (Lyrics) (Inc. Alt. Chorus)

In heaven there is no beer.
That's why we drink it here.
And when we're gone from here,
Our friends will be drinkin' all the beer.

La, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

In heaven there is no beer.
That's why we drink it here.
And when we're gone from here,
Our friends will be drinkin' all the beer.

La, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

What I've been up to lately

Yup yup yup.

The Obama Antidote

I heard this guy this morning on the Laura Ingraham show. I was bowled over. This man is articulate, eloquent, and plain-spoken. He doesn't hem, haw, mince or parse. Contrast his syle with that of our oily president. No teleprompter here. No faux intellectualism. On the LI show he was calm and straightforward. I can't link the clip from the interview because it requires a subscription. There is more on him here. And a Hannity interview here.

There is hope.

I have a really Bad Feeling...

...that this a**hole will show up at Luke's graduation.

What not to do

When stringing lights on the Christmas tree, don't climb cheerfully onto a stepladder without carefully checking it first to make sure those little metal things on the sides are pushed down securely. Doing so is likely to result in a collapsed stepladder, a tumble onto the family room floor, bruises, an increasingly sore and wobbly knee, an evening trip to the emergency room, a nice visit for Dad with his former colleagues, x-rays, the discovery that nothing's broken but a ligament might be torn, some painkiller prescriptions, and a whole new lease on life for Luke's old crutches and knee immobilizer.

I'm just sayin'.

If you Need to Vomit

Watch or listen to some of Barack and Michelle on Oprah. I've heard bits and pieces. These people have absolutely no class or humility.

Sometime Soon

I am going to reach the tipping point on eco-madness and explode.
