Just a Blip or Two

We had a bit of a seasonal blip in the weather the past few days, a bit of winter not wanting to let go. Wednesday we had to jack up the heat, and we all wore winter coats and gloves to go to the hockey game over in Allentown. Last one of the season for us; I think that made it 6 games that we got to. And I found her a MeLVin stuffed animal, so SCORE!!!  Anyway, we had a few days of cold wet and mean, and it was quite chill this morning, so we turned the heat on and then went back under the covers for another hour or so. My tulips are coming up - about a month late, but they’re on the way finally - and we used the grill yesterday. So it’s time for winter to go, and to stay gone.

Tax time, tax time, happy happy tax time. What an annual waste of manpower. I hear the proto-candidates making noises about Use Tax or Fair Tax or Flat Tax or whatever name it goes by now. 11.5% across the boards on everything you buy, but no income tax and no corporate taxes. So in theory goods ought to be 30% less expensive real fast, so even with the new Use Tax they’ll be less expensive. It’s all a load of corn dogs. This is all just empty posturing, no different that the Left’s infinite refrain of how every time the right wants to cut taxes or rework Medicare it means leaving the poor to starve and pushing granny out to sea on an iceberg. Get real ... do you know how few icebergs there really are? We’d have to topload them with so many grannies that they’d turn over and sink, just like the island of Guam.

Off to do my weekend work, and maybe a bit of shopping. Back to blog later, maybe.

Oh, we got skunked in bowling. Not that we care. We’re stuck in the middle with 4 weeks to go. Whatever. So we got drunk and had fun with the guys on the other team. And teammate J wouldn’t even have a glass, or hardly talk to us. The boy is really strange. Asocial. Forever mourning his lost love. And now that he’s shaving his head and doing this little goatee thing ... holy crap, it’s Walter White. We need to get him the little flat hat. Course, he has no idea who WW is. We even prepped him, as goof on the folks around the table ... so I guess we did get a few words out of him; he isn’t cranky, he just doesn’t have anything to say ever ... so we coached him and then we were all like check this out, and he turns to the table and growls “Say my name” and we go “Heisenberg” and he’s “You’re goddamn right” everyone at the table is like holy shit, it’s HiM!!

OMG, must remember to get my coffee. All out, and having to use “donut shop” blend k-cups. Eww. Even using 2 to make a full mug’s worth is still weak, with a thin woody taste on the finish. I want my beans. Although I’d take some 8 o’clock if I could find it, or some genuine REAL Kona if I could afford it.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
