Imbicility Afoot!

Finally, someone has done something worthy of this picture.

Last week I was in our local Secretary of State, aka the D.M.V. for most Americans. This guy at the counter, I'd say, in his mid 50's is on his cell phone directly in front of a sign that clearly stated that one should refrain form any and all conversations on a cellular device while being helped by the person behind the counter. Strike One. He was in the midst of arguing with the nice lady behind the counter on why he was required to have proof of insurance in order to get a license plate for a new vehicle purchase. Strike Two. Every time the nice lady told him what needs to happen in order to get things done in a proper manor, he apparently knew best because he kept saying, " no, you can't do that!" Further on in this fiasco, She asked him what kind of vehicle was it again. Answer, "A Winnebago." Next Question: "What model?" Response: "Uh, a chef-tine, chef something,.." "can you spell that sir?" "Uh, C, H, I, uh no, C, H,E...." Strike Three. (Worse yet he was trying to get help from the dummy on the other end of the phone who obviously didn't know either!)
He couldn't spell nor even say the word Chieftain! I wanted to punch him! Or at least get up and say, Man, Winnebago is a tribe, who runs a tribe a fucking Chieftain!!! Idiot! I was appalled that this guy was in the world breathing our air! Now I myself may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but, fuckin' a. That was just the beginning of a wonderful day dealing with people who ran into the cloud of stupid that day that must have decended upon the tri-county area.
Some wise advice when you are having a day such as that- Never go to a big box store or a Kroger to purchase a Green Dot Money Pack card. The clerk will only stare at you and stutter in confused tones.
Avoid driving. People will try to turn in front of you improperly by not using the turn lane and will cause a back up.
Better yet, if you encounter something real idiotic, just turn around and go home. Whatever it is can wait until the next day.

Star Trekkin!

In response to Benny's Shatner video post I was compelled to post this picture of The Shat. Let it be known that in no way am I trying to Spock Block my friend Benny. That would be......highly illogical.

In my long years of Geek-dom, I've had the privilege of meeting more than one actor from Star Trek. Such as "Oh My!" George Takei, and Spock's father Ambassador Sarek a.k.a Mark Leonard. I was in the same room while both William Shatner and Leonard Nemoy were on stage (together in fact!), albeit toward the back of the venue so they looked kinda small. Others include from TOS, Scotty-James Doohan, Checkov-Walter Koenig, and most recently, Sean Kenny who played Captain Pike (disfigured) in the episode, The Menagerie. From TNG, I sat in the first row while Patrick Stewart was on stage preforming and impromptu Shakespeare moment. Lt. Worf-Michale Dorn ( very nice guy, great singer!) Commander Riker-Johnathan Frakes, and Troy-Marina Sirtis. From Voyager, (most recently) Ensign Kim-Garrett Wang (Very, very, cool guy) The Doctor-Robert Picardo ( left salad leavins at the lunch table at Motor City Comic Con 2006), Ensign Torres-Roxanne Dawson, and Lt. Paris-Robert Duncan McNeil. From Enterprise- ( Oh God there's more?! yes.) Ensign Mayweather-Anthony Montgomery( I have pictures to prove that one. Very cool guy) and last but not least, two that I didn't actually meet but it was surreal watching them head to lunch, Malcolm and Trip- Dominic Keating and Conner Trinneer. I'll never forget the joke Mark Leonard told us in attendance at a Star Trek Convention back in '91 I think, " How many Klingons does it take to screw in a light bulb? ( confused crowd sits silent) "Two. But they have to be very small." ( Some in the crowd got it right away and guffawed, to others it was a joke grenade that went off in a short amount of time. I am sure that to this day there are those that still don't get it and never will.
That is of course just a few celebs I've hobb nobbed with over the years, a list too long to get into and being that many are from Star Wars and a few other things, I would be here forever. I will say that I was in the same room as The Maker, George Lucas at Celebration III, Indianapolis IN 2005. I can also die happy knowing that just this past May at the after party for Motor City Comic Con, I offered Bo Duke- John Schnider, a Jello-shot. Just to be inviting and hospitable. Although he declined, ( probably thinking there was rufies in it or some shit) it was still pretty cool. Of course I was in a properly Dude-ified state of mind. Comfortable, with a Caucasian in my hand. The Dude abides. Next stop this year- Labowski Fest in Kentucky. Fuckin' A.

Evening fodder

Had some musings tonight I thought I would share-

The parliament of Owls observed a murder of Crows unheard, circling where an unkindness of Ravens mocked and otherwise interfered with the business of Ferrets.
Where the Nightingales kept watch as a storytelling of Rooks made a building while the Larks sang in an exaltation warning of a leash of Fox, leading to a scurry of Squirrels.
Yet high they fly, cast and kettle the Hawks dive down on a warren of Rabbit.
But back in the jungle, there is always a bungle when the shrewdness of Apes hold debate with he congress of Baboons.
Tribe and Colony, sleuth and sloth. Badgers, Beavers and Bears! (oh my!)
Vally and siege of Bitterns and Birds are far from a swarm of Bees.
Come to your senses o Mammals pretentious, the collective must stay alive.

Some one knows me too well for not knowing me.

You got problems

Tell me something I don't know!

For the record, it wasn't me.

I found this on my yahoo news just now. I don't know if I will get in trouble for posting this but as long as the sources are identified, I ought to be ok.

Man in ape costume tries to steal banana displays

From the Associated Press

Thu May 21, 3:27 pm ET

FOND DU LAC, Wis. – Police continue a fruitless search for a man wearing an ape costume who has attempted to steal foam banana displays from inside local gas stations. Capt. Steve Klein said Thursday someone donning an ape costume entered two gas stations Wednesday trying to steal the displays and police have received several calls about the suspect hanging around town.

While Klein acknowledges that the action may seem funny, they want to talk to the person behind the ape suit because they aren't sure what the suspect's motives are.

Bastard stole my idea!!!!!!!!
