&%$& Low Flow Toilets are full of crap!!!!!

January 30th, 2008 by Howard | 14 Comments | Filed in Main

Please. Just fill in this space here ________________ with the worse cursing you can conjure up.

Thank you.

That is how I feel about our “Low Freaking Flow” Toto toilet. The ass rats who sold us this expensive toilet kept telling me over and over that “You could stuff golf balls down that thing and it would still flush!”

Apparently, that was their secret way of informing me that other materials, like toilet paper for instance, would clog the sucker up faster than an orangutan would kick you in the nuts after you blow hot pepper up his nose with a straw!

No, I don’t know what that means either. I’m pissed. You know that saying “blind rage”? Well, I know it extremely well. I get so pissed at such things that I lose part of my vision and my bladder starts making pop-a-pop-a-pop sounds.

OK, let me start from the evil beginning. We had a toilet from the 1960′s. When you flushed, water the volume of a small lake charged down and you could stuff not just golf balls, but golfers down the damn thing with ease!

Our new “Toto” like what the hell kind of name is that for a crapper anyway, is a communistic government mandated “low flow” piece of shit! And when that sucker clogs, holy mackerel, you would think a fully grown mackerel was stuck down there! And plunging? Normal toilets you can give it five or seven plunges and whoosh, the blockage is cleared. Toto??? Nooooo. Not this evil porcelain demon. First off, you can’t use just any old Wal-Mart plunger. You need the sort of plunger they would use to empty Lake Erie. And then you need to plunge the freaking crap out of it! I mean 30 to 45 minutes of plunging! Holy crap, that’s longer than sex for God’s sake!!

Low flow toilets are mandated to save water. Ha!!! After I just got finished with our Toto toilet and 45 minutes of plungering my guts out, our cats were snorkeling in the living room!!! Not much water saving there!

My old 1960′s toilet I flushed once. Maybe twice on rare occasions. This Toto Total Piece of Crap Toilet I flush four times during a library moment! How the F%#&$ is THAT saving water????

This is why we need less government. About 99% less. A man can’t even go the bathroom without some freaking government regulations ruining the evening. Just another example of bureaucrats, government and politicians taking away our personal freedom.

As for me, I am in search of a method to reverse the low flow feature. I think I can do it. But if any freedom loving patriots out there has accomplished this, please pass on the plans.

That’s it. I can almost see now.

Peace out people.

Heath Ledger

January 24th, 2008 by Howard | No Comments | Filed in Main

It is sad when anyone dies. But when an actor or actress dies, it becomes a three ring circus. I wish the family, friends and fans of Heath my sympathies.  But please, someone, take this off the front pages and the lead stories on FOX and CNN.

Two people died in an accident yesterday in Broward County when a tractor trailer jack knifed on I-95. I don’t even know their names. Maybe they weren’t actors. People talk about how it is such a waste when a young talented actor dies. But what about those two people yesterday? Their lives mean nothing? Who were they? Office workers? Doctors? And who knows what their futures may have been?

So, an actor can make more movies. Big deal. They are just movies folks. Pretty much anyone who isn’t an actor or actress will likely have more of a long term impact on things that really matter. I can’t count one single actor or actress on my “top 100 people who have had an impact on my life list”. I can count an office clerk at the old BellSouth. I can count a veterinarian. I can count teachers, and drivers and janitors and doctors and all kinds of people. I can count the men and women who serve in the military.

But an actor? No, I’m sorry, there isn’t one actor or actress that has impacted my life, other than providing entertainment. Wait a minute. I take that back. Bugs Bunny. He has had an impact. (Just ask my wife.)
I think as a culture and society we need to make a real effort to place things in their proper perspectives.

Just my cranky rant for the day.

He is convinced that Global Warming on Earth is the cause of the poor conditions on Mars.

The story (and cover up) is here.

Peace out people.

It’s almost Friday!

And A Goldfinch in a Christmas Tree!

January 21st, 2008 by Howard | No Comments | Filed in Main

Yep. Our Christmas Tree is still thriving out in our back yard as we approach the end of January 2008.

Yes, we are still using it as a bird feeder. First I soak it with water, then toss handfuls of various bird seed and peanuts into it.

This photo was this morning, of an American Goldfinch in winter drab clothing sitting in our Christmas Tree/Bird Feeder.

Peace out people.
