This is the least amount of effort that I have ever put into these Thursday Jokes.
Charlie was fixing a door and found that he needed a new hinge, so he sent his wife Mary to Home Depot. At Home Depot, Mary saw a beautiful Bathroom faucet while she was waiting for Walt, the manager, to finish waiting on a customer.
When Walt was finished, Mary asked "How much for that faucet?"
Walt replied, "That's pewter and it costs $300."
"My goodness that sure is a lot of money!" Mary exclaimed. Then she proceeded to describe the hinge that Charlie had sent her to buy, and Walt went to the back room to find it.
From the back room Walt yelled, "Mary, you wanna screw for that hinge?" Mary replied, "No, but I will for the faucet."

I have a rule on snow days. If the majority of the schools that I attended, while growing up in K.C.K, are closed then I’m calling sick to work.
I forgot to check the news before I left for work. I usually check 5-10 min of local news just to see if there are any accidents on my route to the office.
So, now I’m at work and I just checked the list of over 150 school closings in the Kansas City Metropolitan Area (a.k.a. KC metro, or “The Metro, if you will). Imagine my surprise when I see not one, but ALL of the schools that I attended, Wyandotte County Catholic Schools, (Christ the King, and Bishop Ward) KCKCC, and JCCC, are all canceled today.
What is up with that? When I was in grade school, at Christ the King, we never and I mean NEVER, EVER had school canceled. (We did one day in grade school but that was because the boiler busted and there wasn’t any heat.) Even in the blizzard of ’78 we still had school.
We didn’t take the bus our parents drove us and some other kids from the ‘hood. My mother is a terrible driver. I won’t let her drive when we go somewhere together, which I avoid at all cost. She is so bad… (this is where you say… “How bad is she?”) My mother is such a bad driver that my younger brother C-boy once fell out of the car WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING. (Which is a hilarious story, I’ll have to tell you some time.)
But, if we did have a snow day I can guaran-fuckin’-tee you Dad would have had us out shoveling the driveway. And while we were shoveling he would have been calling the neighbors asking if they wanted us to shovel their driveway. Which have been ok, if he wouldn’t have taken a 45% sales commission.
But The SIS got to say inside and do laundry.
Anyway, my point is kids these days are soft, squishy, and taste like chicken.
Wimps!
(*there was no blizzard in ’78 that I can remember, I just made that up for dramatic purposes)

Why would someone bring in left over Superbowl food to your office? Hot wings, chips, cold nacho cheese, some (kind of crappy) salsa, and half a crock pot of chili? Don't even get me started on the stench.
Is it just me or did the majority of the Superbowl commercials suck balls?
Tonight is the Boarder War, MU vs. KU at Allen Field house in Lawrence KS. 8 pm on ESPN. Then stay tuned for Sportscenter.

Last night was the premiere of the greatest show on earth. If you missed it or did not DVR it then I’m sorry about your luck.
Lonnie came over just before 8 PM with Minskys pizza we watched the pregame which started at 7 and fast forwarded thought the commercials. Watching a TV any show or sporting event is really the only way to do it these days. It keeps the show moving and you spend less time in front of the TV while watching more shows or games.
As we started watching the season premiere she stood up and announced that “All talking should cease and desist immediately or there would be consequences”. Of course it was just the 2 of us. So, I really don’t think it was necessary to make such a rude announcement. But whatev.
Here are my questions, my own answers are italicized: (These are just my thoughts so I wouldn’t consider them spoilers. If you want spoilers you’ll have to find then on your own.)
Still with me?
This weeks Lost wrap up was brought to you by the letter “P” cause that is what I gotta do now.
Agree? Disagree? What are your thoughts? Lets discuss!
This might become a weekly Friday feature, I don't know, it all depends on time.
Y'all have a nice weekend.

Congrats to KSU for beating KU for the first time EVER in Bramlage Coliseum. You're 1-19 vs KU in YOUR OWN HOUSE!
And Congrats to Erin for seeing KSU beating KU at home for the first time, in her life it truly must be a a wonderful feeling.
KU would never let a streak like that happen.
And congrats to the rest of you KSU bloggers, Chimpo, Emawkc, and Nightmare. (I'm clearly out numbered here.)

Today the Kansas Sampler Foundation announced its 8 “Wonders of Kansas”. The winners are:
I challenge the validity of this list for one simple reason! I’m not on the frakin thing!!! WTF? Dudes!! Srlsy? This is at travesty BEYOND BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS!! Call your congressman (or woman) and demand a recount!!
************************************
KU plays KSU tonight in the Sunflower Showdown, 7 pm on channel 38 on Direct TV. (I have no idea what channel it is on for Time Warner and Dish Networks cause those systems suck donkey balls.) KSU has not beaten KU in Bramlage Coliseum since 1983, that’s 25 years. (Bramlage opened in ‘88). Beasley is the highest scoring player in the big 12 this season to date. If KU shuts him down KU wins easy by 20. KSU is a one man band. Without Beasley we’d be talking 0’fers for KSU. I'll be watching with my crew at Tanners on 87th.
************************************
I’m so effin’ busy with work and a project at home I literally don’t have time to shit. But I had a huge break though with the project at home so hope fully things run smoothly from here on out.
************************************
My best pal Lonnie is pissed off at me becaue I haven’t blogged about her new daughter yet. (even thought I set up my space and Facebook pages for her. I'm her first Friend!!!!) If I had the time of some photos maybe I will.

The Kansas City Star, my hometown paper of record, (whatever the fuck that means) is doing a contest to see who can come up with "extraordinary captions" for some pictures from the greatest Television show in the history of television shows EVER!
I think that paper is shit so I'm not going to enter the contest. The only thing you get for winning is your name in the paper. My name has already been in the paper enough lately. Over the weekend I was arrested for... wait for it... wait for it... being too fuckin, Awesome! So I thought I'd skip the formalities and just do the contest here.
What show is it, you ask? Well, it's Lost of course you stupid, dirtbag! How could you not know that? Srsly, what planet are you from? Well, you should go back to it because we don't let Dicks on this planet. And yea, your a Dick if you don't watch Lost.
The first season it was out I would spend every waking moment searching the internets for clues as to what the fuck was going on on the Island. I had about 50 different web sites I would check HOURLY at work and once again when I would get home. Then I was transfered to our home office and lost all of them and didn't have time to get them back for the second season. It nearly drove me crazy.
I'm commonly referred to as "That Lost Dude" at work. Which is a title that I have grown to accept. But I don't always think they're referring to the show when someone calls me that. But whatever.
(FYI if you haven't been watching the "missing pieces" webisodes then your totally fucked for this coming season. They're less than 5 min long so go watch them when you can. You can get caught up during your lunch. Or you can get a full update to the series in 8:15 (!!!!!!!!!) here.)
The season 4 premiers this Thursday at 7 pm. I really dont' know why you don't already have your DVR set for the season pass. Coincidentally, I spent my weekend watching all 23 episodes of season 3, that equals to about 18 hours of television that I watched this weekend. Yea that is a lot of TV. But it was totes worth it, I pretty much know every thing that has happened last season. If I were to be on a game show about Lost right now I would totes win!
Anyway, add your own captions in the comments if you like. This is not a contest. But if you want to send me nude pics of yourself I would not reject them. (No fatties, No dudes.)
1. Ben a.k.a Henry: "Hey, How you doooin'? Come here often?"

For today's Thursday Joke I thought I give you some one-liners from one of my favorite comics, Steven Wright.
And my favorite line from Steven Wright: I once bought some powdered water... I didn't know what to add to it.

The good news is that I did not wake up dead this morning.
Last night I was wishing someone would whack me upside my head with a 2x4 accompanied by a rusty nail sticking out of it. It would have helped my head drain of all the nasty snot rockets. It was one of those kinds of head colds where you can only breathe out of your mouth and one side of your nose. But when you lay down on, say your right side, you can feel every thing shift to the right side of your head. And for a few glorious minuets you can breathe out of both nostrils. But after your back to the hell of halving a cork stuck up one side of your nose. Then you roll back over to your left side and it all shifts with you again. It’s like a fun game of teeter-totter only its not fun it's some kind of sick fucking torture . I was doing so much tossing and turning last night that I made myself nauseous and almost threw-up.
It’s one of those head colds that no matter how hard you blow your nose, that shit just won’t come out. You want to stick a 12 foot Q-tip up there so you can punch a hole in the blockage and just stand over the sink or toilet and let it drain out like an open fire hydrant. But instead you just keep blowing your nose so hard that you almost shart while doing it. Not a good feeling, let me tells ya, yo!
Then as the day worn on the symptoms have changed and NOT for the better. I no longer have all of the head/face/nasal cavity issues. But now I have lower abdominal craps, (THEY’RE NOT MENSTRAL!!), and VERY explosive, I'm talking atom bomb explosive Hershey Squirts, you know, the green apple splatters, swamp ass, a case of the mud butt. (Is that enough? Cause I have more.)
I hate having diarrhea, but I hate pickles more. If I had to chose between eating a pickle or having echoing, explosive H-bomb type shits for the rest of my life. I would take the shits everyday of the week and twice on Sunday.
Note to self: It would be a good idea to move the TV in to the bathroom tonight.
I hope there isn't much traffic on the drive home of I might not make it. I wonder is any one has a cork I could barrow?
What makes this even worse is I have off-site training tomorrow! But hey, it's a free lunch!

I don't understand why everyone if freaking out about Heath Ledgers death. It doesn't effect me or anyone that I know. He was a foreigner and probably here illegally, so who gives a shit if he's dead? It doesn't affect you in any way what-so-ever. So get over it already. You'll still get your Dark Knight movie this summer, so stop worrying your pretty little head.
The top story today wasn't even the Semler resignation from the parks board. I bet your thinking that because she resigned those conventions, that left, will all come back now? Keep dreaming, buckaroo, they won't!
The top story wasn't even the news, out of Jeff City, that Governor Blunt won't be running again in the next election. He said he isn't because he has reached all of his objectives. You you hear that Missouri, you're effing perfect according to Butt-face Blunt.
No, no, ladies and gents,
What you should really be talking about (besides me being very, very, sick and 10 times more irritable) is the announcement that the old Verison Wireless Amphitheater, that closed last year, is reopening this May and will be renamed Sandstone Amphitheater.
The good thing about this is that with the Sprint Center opening and us still having Sandstone we aren't losing one of the best outdoor venues to see some pretty good acts that will be coming to town this summer.
Chris Fritz, the president of New West Presents, who now manage the property, is going to lower ticket prices, plus beer and concessions. (Although I never could understand who would eat that swill at those kinds of places.) He is going to lower ticket, and beer prices by "going green". Which means that they will be "Collecting trash for recycling (glass, paper and plastic). Recycle old fryer oil for people with bio-fuel vehicles. Offer receptacles for recycling cell phones. Use recycled materials inside the venue, like office paper, paper napkins, paper plates and toilet paper. Make parking free for people who carpool or drive an alternative-fuel vehicle. Install bike racks at the gates for people who want to ride bicycles to shows. Which all you tree huggers should be happy about.
All that recycling is pretty good but if you fart a lot you'll get charged extra.
Now, I'm going to take some medicine (and by "medicine" I mean Mad Dog 20/20) and lay down. I still can't breath thought my nose. And the sickness is getting worse by the hour. If you don't hear from me in the morning please call an ambulance. Just make sure it's the kind with the sexy paramedics in it like the ones in a David Lee Roth video, thanks.
It would really ruin my day if I woke up dead.

With months of planning the banquet went off without a hitch. I had the perfect system all set up. But it took me almost all night to print over 120 name tags Friday night using my home printer. I also had to print 35 applications for the neophytes at 5 pages each is a lot of paper and ink.
Some history on this banquet that we throw every year. This was our 87th meeting. The club has had a lot of influential members though out the years most notably President Harry Truman was initiated in the 30's. The membership is now populated with upstanding citizens from Kansas City Kansas, my home town. We have doctors, lawyers, judges, business owners, politicians, insurance men, police officers, firemen. People from every walk of life. If I gave you some of their names you would be amazed at the quality of people. But I'm not going to give you any names.
I guess the best way to describe the club is to say that it's part Friar's club roast, part fraternity. It's really a good time.
One thing I can tell you that happened to me, which was completely amazing and totally random. I was talking to one of our photographers about how the day went and the other photographer came over and asked me if I had family in Jefferson City (we all wear name tags). I said yea both of my parents are from Jeff City, long story short he had grown up with my Dads brother (my uncle) and my mothers brother. I still have to call mom and tell her about it. She's probably flip out. It just goes to show you what a small world we all live in.
After the ceremony the group (which you already know as my crew, Mr. Awesome, Reggie, Scooter, The EYE-talian, and a few others) that planned the event went over to a bar in KCK and watched UNC lose to Maryland which was just enough to make the day pretty effin sweet. Then we headed to Danny's again had dinner and watched KU beat those slack jawed yolks from Mizzou.
There was really a lot of random, and amazing stuff that happened thought out the day. But I still have a lot of work to do as far as updating the roster with new members, and updating current members with new contact information. Which is going to take me a couple of nights to get though all of the new members. Overall we had 132 people attend which is a pretty good turnout but not our best.
