So the world is going to end... figures

I'm just saying if all those occurances of strange noises all over the world (see videos below or all over the freakin place) are not hoaxes, then don't they sound freakishly like those things on 'war of the worlds'? ... so that would not be good. Any day now big machines are going to errupt from the ground and start vapourizing us. Granted it would be easy to fake one of these, but some of them... like the ones where there are a baseball stadium or city full of witnesses, not so much, so wtf? So, yep, that is classic end of the world material really. Or mother earth is groaning because of all the shit we are pulling. One theory that the earth plates are all shifting deep down and that is end of the world worthy. Seriously, it would be interesting to have someone come up with a reasonable explination for those sounds, and their occurance in difference areas. From the ground or the atmosphere?

In all liklihood if the world is ending (and if the Myans are right we have till the end of the year anyway) we all know from various movies and, well, common sense, that the goverment would be the last ones to tell us it is happening because a) panic amoungst the masses which is really in human nature. When the going gets tough, we go ape shit, break crap and break all rules of society and common sense. b) because all the rich people need time to pay for their tickets to the uber secret boat/spaceship/bunker where the rest of the government will be hunkering down and the rest of us peons would just get in the way. So if it is an unexplained phenomena, it will be unexplained for awhile, until some scientist actually investigates it. If it is the end of the world, then it has already been investigated over the last year and we are all shit out of luck and just don't know it yet. Either way, no point worrying about it. Still, color me intrigued about the cause.


And a little more recent and close to home... athough this one is likely a fake one, because really what better things do we have to do in Alberta? Except freeze our asses off that is. Now the one recently on the news here was in Manatoba but I did not find a clip for it.

Not this winter!

Wow found awesome ticket site ever


A friend of mine's spouse likes his collage football in the states and there going in a trip around a few of them and she wanted me to google around a bit to find a place, cause they don't have interact in the country, or at least not dependable interact.  I found this huge ticket site.  Massive.  "Ticketamerica.com has college sports and game tickets UTEP MinersValparaiso Crusaders and the Vanderbilt Commodores basketball and football seating." utep miners tickets ,valparaiso crusaders tickets ,vanderbilt commodores tickets and more, which should work perfectly for what they are looking for.

But after checking this site out, that is http://www.ticketamerica.com/ I realized they have theatre and concert tickets as well... what an awesome way to plan a vacation around a theatre event I want to see or a concert.... and drag poor Martin along with me!  It is crazy how much they have on there... bet I could even find him some good blues or country if I had to.

Black Sabbath - Awesome!

The Fray

Mama Mia - I so want to see that.

Anyway, if I ever take a vecation I'll have to check this out again.

RETIRED/BORED HUSBAND JOKE


After I retired, my wife insisted that I accompany her on  her trips to Target.
Unfortunately, like most men, I found shopping  boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally unfortunate, my wife is  like most women - she loves to browse.
Yesterday my dear wife received the following letter from the local Target:
Dear Mrs. Harris,
  Over the past six months, your husband has caused quite a commotion in  our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and have been forced to ban both of you from the store. Our complaints against your husband, Mr. Harris, are listed below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras:
1. June 15: He took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in other people's carts when they weren't looking.
2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in House wares to go off at 5-minute intervals.
3. July 7: He made  a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom.
4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official  voice, 'Code 3 in House wares. Get on it right away'. This caused the employee to leave her assigned station and receive a reprimand from her Supervisor that in turn resulted with a union grievance, causing management to lose time and costing the company money.
5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&Ms on layaway
6. August 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.
7. August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told the children shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department to which twenty children obliged.
8. August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began  crying and screamed, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?' EMTs were called.
9.. September 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose.
10. September 10: While  handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were.
11. October 3: Darted around the Store  suspiciously while loudly humming the ' Mission Impossible' theme.
12. October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his 'Madonna look' by using different sizes of funnels on his chest.
13. October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, he yelled 'PICK ME! PICK ME!'
14. October  22: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a
fetal position and screamed 'OHNO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!'

15. Took a box of condoms to the check out clerk and asked where the fitting room was?

And last, but not least:
16. October 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile, and then yelled very loudly, 'Hey! There's no toilet paper in here.'
One of the clerks passed out.

'Yeah, I'm your present. Deal with it.' Ah, Charlie, the gift that just keeps giving.
