Brielle's Ramblings

As promised, daylight pictures of this year:

For those of you who missed last years pictures of the two whacked houses, here they are (in daylight):




As you can see, they were much more tame last year...


I'll have new daylight pics up by Monday.

And you thought you had weird neighbors?

The whackjobs that live next door and across the street from me do their yearly who's johnson is bigger contest for halloween and cause havoc and traffic jams in the street out in front of my house.

These were taken around 10 mins ago.







!@#$%

Someone is going to get hit by a car one of these nights if they aren't careful.

Ok, so I'm going to give my standard warning for anyone who wants to read this article:

If you are a highly religious individual who can not take criticism or accept the fact that you may be stepping over the line in your fight to destroy evolution in favor of your Intellegent Design theory (which by the way, as never been proven or backed in scientific facts), you should not read this post. Also, if you are a republican, reading my blog in general may piss you off.

Now, with the standard disclaimer out of the way, lets get to the meat of this article.

I woke up this morning and found that my blog ads had been infested with Intellegent Design (aka: creationism) advertisements - pewforum.org, 1cosmos.org, creationdesign.org, and others.

Now, for those of you who missed my previous post on Intellegent Design, or just don't know what it is in general, its considered junk science by most of the Scientific community. Basically, its a new spin on the old idea that God created everything and anything - but without actually using the word 'god'.

So, let me pose this question to the people who are putting up these ads:

Why, if your theory is so sound, solid, and unrefutable, why do you feel it necessary to boost your views by advertising on Google?

You don't see advertisements trying to shove evolution down people's throats (perhaps because evolution is an accepted theory that is based in fact rather then the bible...). Is this just more desperation? Rather then trying to prove Intellegent Design with actual facts, use a crow bar to ram it down on people while completely dancing around the truth?

No offense to the people who read this and believe in Intellegent Design or Creationisim - but come on. Can we please grow up?

Just when you thought the far right had finally gotten over the purple teletubby, superman wearing tights, and Spongebob, they now have their new poster child of the evil gays - American Girl.

You know, that doll thats really popular with girls these days?

Wel, according to the far right, the doll is designed to make girls lesbians. This is because of the company's support for Girls Inc.

Read one of the many articles on this subject here.

So, its been raining all week so far - with today being the worst so far. In the course of 4 hours, I got soaked bad, really really badly.

Of course, I also found a new hatred for human beings as well - never EVER tell/wish your gas station attendant 'stay dry' when he's standing out in the pouring rain and cold trying to pump your gas while your sitting inside your warm and dry BMW.

Had to resist the urge to take the crowbar to his front windshield...

So, I walked into work today at the station, to find out that they are replacing our Wayne Plus with a Ruby Verifone system, which is supposed to be vastly superior and more stable then the piece of shit we have right now.

The new system gets installed Thursday, and should only take a few hours. However, learning it should be... interesting... to say the least.
