Another game, Liar's Club
It is a real thing you can buy. Paula, Cerpicio's wife, found something like this, at the Johnny Appleseed Festival this year. The proprietor didn't know what it was, but was selling it anyway. Paula knew, so she explained what it was and people around, grabbed one, hence -- they now have it.
When you give up trying to guess, the answer is at the bottom.
Dave saw this show and found out, for this person was using one.

Coke, mentos Domino
Way too much time on their hands. Good thing for them they have a large area to do the display. Notice the large log pile in the background?
Dave asked if any of us had seen this one ... I had not before tonight.

dead dish
Cerpicio got this "free", like he wants it, when he bought the house. This weekend was the housewarming with many guests arriving. I understand that Cerpicio plans on eBaying this item. Are there any takers on a Super Dish Network satelite dish?

What came up -- "cornhole"
You set the ramp down and get 1 point for cornbags (beanbags) resting on the ramp after a round, or 3 points for sinking it. At the end of the round, you call all points team A minus team B score. Any positive points go to the correct team. Like table tennis, 21 is the final score, 7 to 0 is a skunk (instant quick win). Otherwise, it is similar to horseshoes, without the pain of being hit with anything solid metal.
Cerpicio's Mom had the misfortune of misplacing the game instructions for this family game. Cerpicio's sister had compiled the instructions from the net and so, his mother thought she could easily find it. For shame that "cornhole" brought up a lot of site alright. She later asked her daughter again for the instructions.
Cornhole. It's a family yard game.
Thanks Cerpicio for introducing the "corn" game. Here are the rules.

You can imagine the looks Cerpicio got for calling attention to this game, without proper explanation of it.

Disturbing
I have seen this ad many times for avatars and others that are "more dimensional", but look like Bratz (TM). There is always a little girl featured in skimpy clothing, a sick trend. While the company isn't really promoting anything bad, as a viewer, I see evil there through willful ignorance or intent.

I had to keep it in the one place they wouldn't find it
So, there I was carrying this uncomfortable hunk of metal in the one place that they wouldn't find it -- my ***. So, let me get this straight. You're out on parole, found naked, masturbating in public with a metal awl shoved up your rectum?
Yes.
Book him or shoot him. We're done with this guy. He could never handle being in society again.

record keeper
Restaurant reviwer is a simple job, but really, how does one get it? This reviewer had to use the newspaper database to check to see if she had already written a review on it. Uh ... she doesn't us a computer? You would think some one writing for a newspaper might, just maybe, keep a record of work written -- perhaps all inclusively. This should be especially true if there is ever a chance that you could erroneously write conflictual statements regarding indentical places. There are changes in anything, so, an analysis or review one time may not be valid another time. Still, you'd keep it on hand, right?
This smacks of a none-too-bright person.

Hunters move up a rank
Donating meat to charity -- now that's a great work! Some hunt for sport, but thankfully these folk donate some of the meat. "Tip your hat to the new revolution!" +

Here's how I feel
Thanks to Speed Bump creator Dave Coverly to find my disppointment with my situation.

Put away that gun, Mister!
Sheriff, Mongo's back, and ...
You are the marshall out to find and shoot the men on the wanted posters. You are alone in town and the men pop out left and right. Click, click, boom!

More selective viewing
I have been intersted in why, with some degree of talent, movies just reek like 6-month litter. Using IMDb.com, I have found directors have amazing ability to get actors together for really bad movies. Moreover, the writers have jaded histories as well.
I saw Titan, A.E. listed in an unrelated search and wanted to know a bit more about it.
Don Bluth directed it -- it stank! I liked American Tail 2, but that ends it for my liking of his work.
The two main writers put together such great movies as Anaconda and Speed 2. I think, much like parent advisory on movies, they should put, viewer advisory, like who made the thing! If you knew that, would you watch it, proabably not.
I liken this to Christmas with the Kranks from the director of Bi-Centennial Man+, Monkeybone, Jingle All the Way.++
I guess I just want to be better informed, a more informed consumer.
+ very long-winded, high-tech story of Little Mermaid, which generally nobody watched twice.
++ while parts of this movie are entertaining, it is not a good movie.
