Father of the Year with David Spade



Image result for father of the year movie


When two buddies' drunken debate about whose father would win in a fight is taken seriously by one of their fathers, things go bad. Jobs are lost, relationships ruined, futures destroyed, ...

Now for my opinion...it is a watchable feel good movie with not a lick of memorable or redeeming value. Turn it on to have something to watch but done' t expect much more than that. The Spade character was almost worth watching, but its a New Jersey version of Joe Dirt. I like Joe Dirt plenty. Watch that instead.

Pulled the chrome book aka Chromie, out of the briefcase I no longer carry. Carry it was all I di. I didn’t us anything I’d packed. So, the briefcase is rtired and th Chromie needs a new function. I’m writing in bed, using teh art box as a desk….One thing I cam eaway with from carrying the Chromie to work was adding a bluetooth woreless mouse. This Chromie has  atouch pad and it sends the cursonr into a random location if I drag my thrmb over the touch pad. It can fuck up a streaqm of consiousness, believer me.
If the Chromie is now a homie, best bring the power cord back home. I’d thought it would sit on maintain some privacy at work. It turned out to be un nccessary. I have plenty ot occuy my time       the lab without journaling or watchng videos...or scrolling through tIMGUR or TUMBLr..my desk, at work, my personal tool to


There it went, it jumped up a few lines….’Damn these perhensil thumbs of mine!”


I’ve read form the book aof Disquite Although I do not completely identify8 with the author, I do enjoy the wy he thinks, his observations, while his alone, do get me thinking from another point of view. I feel this is the spirit of the hauthor himself. He was an obsercer, doomed to think, to dream, as he liked to p;it it. He said it best when he said he as no will to have a will at all. Forever watching...trying to understand.


Man, I haven’t blogged in a long time. I guess I stipped seing the point. I should do it for myself, so I can have soe semieditted form of my musings availiable online, whenever I wanted to access them. To build a great reepository , make my park on the www.

I could use a toke and coffee in theat order.



James Powell (born 1932) is a Canadian author of mystery and humorous short stories. Many of his 130 stories have been published in Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine. He has been nominated twice for the Crime Writers of Canada Award for the Best Short Story and, in 1989, won the Ellery Queen Readers' Award for the story "A Dirge for Clowntown" featuring Inspector Bozo of the Clowntown Police. Powell's occasionally dark sense of humor and developed irony has led to him being noted by Marvin Lachman as "The S.J. Perelman of the mystery story...outrageous, hilarious satires, international crime and surprise endings."[1]

Powell's most loved characters include Acting Sergeant Maynard Bullock of the RCMP and the four generation family of San Sebastiano detectives, The Ganelons.

Okay...enough of looking around for obscure authors mentioned in the Ellery Queen Mystery magazine....I had a few from my pirating days...my hoarding days...digital hoarding....
A couple were not in my impromptu collection, so I saved one to a wish list on AMAZON and put others on my TO READ list on GOODREADS.

Its a way to keep track of things for later. One of the authors, believe it or not , was Issac Asimov...I had lots of his work in my collection but then, he wrote a butt load. More fiction writer than biochemist but definitely both. Smart too. One of those high IQ people...Looking forward to getting some of these gems on an electronic device, my Kindle or NOOK, and see for myself. So many books, so little time.

Time is what I'm putting n today, to get some blogs up...Feeling a scoonch guilty but mostly motivated by wanting to do something with all of the information I am consuming...constantly consuming....

I have a formula for pumping out  relevant BLOGS....this is one of them.

 Okay...this was a gift from some friends in South Dallas...it's a PLANTARIA, they make Hawaiian Lays out of them.



 Plesant memor, actually two. The first was reading one of my Mom's favorite authors...the second was seeing something from our time in Devine.



 We had a stay-over with some friend's children, and this really surprised me. It is really nice, great use of colors.



 The Lab...

















 The cleaning woman's truck...







 My TACK SACK for work....and lunch bag...



 This is a decrepit, strip center near my house. We go there for the come cooking at the CAFE, definitely the centerpiece of the shopping center. But it caught my eye, what a haven the place was, beneath the dull exterior. It has a place for anger management and counseling.
 ...a church, resale shop, organic butcher, A piano shop in it's own building.















 Fixing the front entry, pouring cement...

Know whay there were 10,000 Mexicans at teh Alamo?
They heard they were pouring concrete.
