Been working a lot and playing around on Facebook. Plus nothing has made me want to rant until now. Actually this is more like ribbing than ranting. The victim is Gary Ambrose aka Coincutter. Dude ya gotta quit hitting on my wife and all my female cousins. Dude they are all married (except Anjy and she's a little too much woman for you to handle...I mean a lot of woman.) Hell I think you may have hit on my sister too. Dude you have Roxann and she's a good woman. Plus t ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/coincutter_2.html#comments Sun, 18 Apr 2010 21:35:09 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/george_2.html Our cat George has been having problems with his colon for the past ten months. We've been trying to treat that problem with a combination of a new food and laxatives with him not getting better. Now he's really taken a turn for the worse. I won't go into graphic details but we had to make the tough decision to have him put down. Sadly he'll have to suffer until Monday afternoon but that leaves us a few days extra to say our good-byes. He started out as the runt of the litter. Grew to be a ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/george_2.html#comments Thu, 18 Feb 2010 17:30:49 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/forgetful.html I forgot to mention in my last post that we added a new family member. No not a human one but another pooch. Her name is Sophie and she's a pug. Yep now we have two pugs. Matilda(our border collie mix)is still around and they kind of have a love/hate relationship. Anyway here's how she came to live with us. When PD was at work back in November, this guy brought Sophie into the police station because animal control doesn't work on weekends and this was a Sunday. He was dressed in his church ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/forgetful.html#comments Thu, 21 Jan 2010 18:12:11 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/long_absense.html For those of you that missed me...I'm sorry. I've been just lazy about posting on here. First of all, I've been playing around on Facebook catching up with old friends. That, work, and hanging around with the wife takes up my time. Plus I've been brain farting on things to write about. I can tell you the most recent thing I did was a blunder. I was trying to back out of the driveway and knocked the bumper of wifey's CRV into the entrance of the garage. It looks terrible. Now I have to call ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/long_absense.html#comments Thu, 21 Jan 2010 17:58:13 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/thanks_coincutter.html Thank you for talking me into Facebook. You are right...my wife is hot. People I've forgotten about have found me. PD is even on Facebook. She's reconnected with old friends. I chatted with my best friend since Kindergarten. I haven't done anything with him in over 12 years. Kind of cool. Nothing wrong with Greasy. I can vent my thoughts here and no one knows me. Facebook doesn't offer that kind of anonimity. Thanks Eddie for that. Yes my real name is Draco. I only use that for blogging pu ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/thanks_coincutter.html#comments Mon, 19 Oct 2009 20:52:07 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/digging_ivy.html I spent some of the morning digging up the annoying ivy and weeds growing where PD wants to plant some tulips, daffodils, and other pretty plant life. It took me a few hours because not only was there that annoying ivy, but there was a very elaborate root system growing entangled with the ivy as well as this plastic mesh looking stuff underneath all that growth. By the time I got a good clearing, there was sand and rock underground. WTF was that all about? I'm taking a shower. I stink. 'nu ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/digging_ivy.html#comments Mon, 28 Sep 2009 20:22:39 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/roman_polanski_arrested.html Yes it only took thirty years to arrest him. Roman Polanski was arrested in Switzerland. As many of you know, Roman Polanski plead guilty to unlawful sex with a (at the time) 13-year-old girl. Instead of doing the time, he fled to France to live in exile. To me that is wrong. He is a brilliant director but needs to be punished. I know the girl is now in her 40s but when he had sex with her, she was still a kid. I'm one of those people that believe that execution should be extended to those ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/roman_polanski_arrested.html#comments Mon, 28 Sep 2009 03:37:46 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/weekend_2.html Well I survived another houseguest. It was only my cousin Dilligan. He was over for the Surf City Car Show at Chinook Winds Casino Resort here in Lincoln City. Too bad Paul didn't have that trailer for you to travel here this weekend, Gary. Hand Cut Coins are something you would make a killing selling here. Back to the post. Dilligan actually caravaned with his parents, my grandfather(it's his grandfather too), our two aunts, an uncle, and our cousin, her husband, and baby. Only he, his pa ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/weekend_2.html#comments Tue, 22 Sep 2009 18:30:31 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/gone_great_road_house_sky.html Sad news. In case you didn't know, Patrick Swayze lost his battle with Pancreatic Cancer. He was known for many roles including his most famous one...Road House(I know people liked him in Dirty Dancing but please humor me.) He started out acting in small roles in the late 70s and early 80s before getting a break as Darrel Curtis in the adaptation of S.E. Hinton's book The Outsiders. He went on to star in blockbusters like Red Dawn and the mini-series North and South Book 2. He did gain sta ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/gone_great_road_house_sky.html#comments Tue, 15 Sep 2009 13:54:16 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/1252943444.html This is my way of saying that all humans are equal in every way, shape, and/or form. Not all blacks are in gangs. Not all Asians are geniuses. Not all Mexicans are illegal. Not all Middle Easterners are terrorists. Not all whites are Rednecks. Not all Jews are greedy.

Enjoy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- An old country preacher had a teenage son, and it was getting time the boy should give some thought to choosing a profession. Like many young men his age, the boy didn't really know what he wanted to do, and he didn't seem too concerned about it. One day, while the boy was away at school, his father decided to try an exper ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/friday_funny_wednesday.html#comments Thu, 10 Sep 2009 01:45:20 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/waited_long.html As you may or may not know... PD and I are in our late thirties and don't have kids. I have nothing against kids. I'm still hoping to become a parent. Right now we are having trouble. In the beginning of our marriage both of us weren't ready...financially and emotionally. We were happy being an aunt and uncle to other people's kids(siblings and friends.) Now reading Coincutter's blog about his dealings with his step-kids confirmed another reason we waited. I commented on his post titled "R ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/waited_long.html#comments Wed, 9 Sep 2009 02:07:57 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/please_accept_apology.html I'm very sorry I haven't written in a while. As I mentioned in my previous post, I've been suffering from an extreme case of writer's block. Some of you may have missed me and others could give a rat's ass but I'll try to keep you entertained. In case you were wondering though, I've been busy working my ass off for Coca Cola. The people have been buying like crazy and keeping me working long hours. PD has been doing the same for the Police Department. It seems the month of August all hell ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/please_accept_apology.html#comments Fri, 4 Sep 2009 00:24:39 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/writers_block.html OK...I'll admit it. I haven't written a post in a while because of writer's block. Nothing has come to mind. I haven't done anything exciting or nothing has pissed me off. I did buy a pick-up on Friday but nothing exciting about that. Just a pre-owned 2002 Toyota Tacoma 2WD. I didn't feel the need to write about that. Just needed another vehicle. I do enjoy reading other's blogs. Coincutter is very entertaining. I like all you others too but he's very edgy and has a "take no prisoners" fee ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/writers_block.html#comments Mon, 17 Aug 2009 21:36:57 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/1959_vs_2009.html This is some messed up shit. ----------------------------------------------------------- Scenario 1: Jack goes quail hunting before school and then pulls into the school parking lot with his shotgun in his truck's gun rack. 1959 - Vice Principal comes over, looks at Jack's shotgun, goes to his car and gets his shotgun to show Jack. 2009 - School goes into lock down, FBI called, Jack hauled off to jail and never sees his truck or gun again.

Just he and his granddaughter. One particular Sunday however, he had a bad cold and really didn't feel like being up to it.

When they returned, the little girl anxiously ran upstairs to see her g ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/sunday_drivers.html#comments Fri, 7 Aug 2009 01:20:49 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/kids_say_interesting_things.html This is an email I received.

I guess it was an O.K. visit. Not one of our better visits. First of all, I didn't get to see my side that much because they were having my nephew's 2nd birthday party and his carrier(aka my parents' adopted daughter, aka his "birth mother")was going to be in attendance so PD and I didn't go. My real sister back-peddled and went so she could help my mo ... http://my.greasy.com/draco/weekend.html#comments Tue, 4 Aug 2009 18:27:46 GMT http://my.greasy.com/draco/mowing_contagious.html Have you ever noticed that if you are the first one to start up your mower and start mowing the lawn that all of a sudden you hear ten mowers start up right after yours? I thought I'd bring that up because that just happened to me this morning. It's not the first time either. When I lived at my old house(this one too)it would be quiet until I started my mower. Then, simultaneously, you'd hear another mower, then another, etc. Who would have thought that mowing your lawn was contagious?
