Best Spam Ever
And I don’t mean the canned kind, though I admit to liking it. No, I mean the interwebtubenets Spam that we get in our blog. This has to be the best one yet:
We have theft, liquor, Mafia, and balls. That right there beats Engrish anyday.
Forget Ruby Slippers
Stilettos are IN!!!!
A woman allegedly beat her boyfriend to death with the spiked heel of a stiletto shoe.
Thelma Carter, 46, struck her live-in boyfriend Robert Higdon, 58, with the shoe at their trailer park home in Augusta, Georgia, police said.
Never underestimate the weaponry at our disposal, gentlemen.
Deadly in more ways than one ![]()

Sunday Funnies: Patriots Edition
I am running on low sleep and low caffeine, but need a pick-me-up. And what better way to get happy than to showcase true patriots?? No better way, I tell you!!!
No, this is NOT turning into a cat blog. This is about patriotism, dammit, and incidental hookers FTW!!
Hope y’all have a great Sunday!!
Saturday Groove
Once again, I got nuthin’. But it’s Saturday, and since I’m cleaning, I will have some music playing. So, I thought I would share my awesome taste in music with y’all ![]()
Now, for something with more pep:
And finally, winding down after a long day of laundry and scrubbing toilets:
And yes, I’m drinking coffee in a cup with a saucer, and my pinky is out!!
Have a great Saturday ![]()
Bite Me!!!
You appeared from nowhere and shamelessly, without any reservations, you laid on my naked body…you sensed my indifference, so you applied your hungry mouth to me without any guilt or humiliation, and you drove me near crazy while you drained me.
Finally, I drifted off to sleep.
Today when I awoke, you were gone, I searched for you but to no avail, only the sheets bore witness to last night’s events. My body still bears faint marks of your enthusiastic ravishing, making it all the more difficult to forget you.
Tonight, I will remain awake, waiting for you…….
F**king mosquito!!!!!

Sunday Funnies
Because we can always do with a laugh, after dealing with teens and paint.
I wonder if the whales get valet parking?
I do hope it’s not a cactus. Or a Venus Flytrap…
There is absolutely nothing to add here.
Aren’t they all??
Have a great Sunday ![]()
It’s Hot
It’s quite hot. Very hot. Africa hot.
The humidity doesn’t help either. Here in my corner of Hades, it’s a cool 86* degrees overcast, with 84% relative humidity. It’s also 8:30 AM.By noon, it will be about 97*, and the heat index will make it feel like 105*. And then in the afternoon, it will get hot…
I have a feeling I will be jumping the sprinklers today as I get the patio ready for Eldest’s party tomorrow.
Why couldn’t she have been born in springtime??

Capes and Tights
Everyone has had the dream of being a superhero. When I was little, I would tie a kitchen towel around my neck, and pretend to be any hero, out to save the world from my mother’s liver dish. My sister and I would take our second-hand Barbies and bend them in half, to be used as rayguns against the evil guinea fowl horde. Sometimes, if we had access, we would get a couple of pairs of my mom’s pantyhose to complete the look. Pantyhose, swimsuit, kitchen or bath towel, and we were INVINCIBLE!!
At least until my mother would go to get a pair of hose for church, and find it ripped to shreds.
When she did, we both hoped we were Invisible Man.
My liking for superheroes dwindled as I grew up, but I still have my favorites. Batman, because he has no superpowers, just those wonderful toys. Wonder Woman, no explanations necessary. But Superman is a bit too hoity-toity for me. Seriously, a pair of glasses for a disguise??
So, what kind of cape did y’all sport? ![]()
Slow Sunday Funnies
I’ve been tired of late and with all the government crap going on right now I’m feeling burned out. But it’s Sunday, and since Draco hasn’t sent his military post, I figured I would fill the void with some laughs.
That last one is a public service announcement ![]()
Y’all have a great Sunday!!
If I Write It, They Will Comment…
Ok, that’s a weak shot at one of the most memorable sports movies of all time, Field of Dreams. Personally, there was a time when I thought Kevin Costner was fun to watch in a movie. I even forgave his walking role in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, but that was only because Alan Rickman redeemed that movie (and hello??? SEAN CONNERY!!!). Then he had to go all serious and shit, and do Waterworld, or as I prefer to call it, Fishtar, thinking he could ride his Wyatt Earp Dances with Wolves coattails, and when THAT didn’t go over well, compound that with The Postman. Ok, that one I actually kinda enjoyed. But I was sick with viral meningitis when I saw it.
But this isn’t a “Bash Kevin Costner” thread. Unless y’all want it to be.
Still, Field of Dreams is one of my favorite sports movies. Not my favorite, mind you, but still inspiring to this day. There is one movie, however, that brings out the fanatic in me.
Slap Shot, the greatest tribute to hockey, EVAH!!! Who can ever forget the Hanson Brothers, bringing their toys?? And with eye candy galore such as Paul Newman and Michael Ontkean, it served to recruit more women to the hockey fan base. I should know. I was one of them. ![]()
Feel free to share your favorite sports films with H&B. Nothing like talking about movies and sports, and drinking!
And not necessarily in that order ![]()
