Hmm I think I could go fishing. I love to fish and I like to eat the fish I catch. I even know a few good places to fish. The sad part is the last time I went fishing I wasn't the only one fishing. There was a Heron fishing beside me. I didn't feel so bad though cause the heron that was fishing didn't catch and fish either. I really would have liked to catch a fish or 2 so I could make grilled fish. But alas there were no fish. Perhaps I need to change my fishing tactics. Or better yet my fishing location. Anyway that is my fishing story and by the time you have read this you will have read the word fish in some variation 17 times. Happy Fishing!

Next time, use dynamite. It's easier that way.

HAPPY VICTORIA DAY! :lol:

[Images 0]

A lady and a monarch the likes of which, the world will never be privileged to see again.

 

Victoria Regina

 

She did lead Britain into the 20th century with immense force and strength...but that whole 'still having her husband's clothes laid out every day for years after he died' thing is still a touch creepy.

 

Its about time Britain got a monarch with balls again. Because even though she lacked the physical kind, Victoria had an emotional pair made of iron.

 

More importantly...

 

Fanta or Tango?

[Cptn Corizon 0]

Fanta...it comes in orange.

 

Mmmm Santana on the Radio.

[will_marx 0]

Diet Pepsi.

Too funny:

 

I was driving home, windows down, sunroof open, IPod blaring through speakers, the bass on. Limp Bizkits "Rollin" (Air Raid Vehicle - clean version) was thumping along the airwaves. I'm parking, a kid (about 16-17, if that) walks by. He turns, looks, keeps walking, turns again, looks, keeps looking as he walks....

 

...I guess I don't look like the "Rollin" type? Gods help the neighborhood if I play Linkin Parks "One Step Closer"....ooooo...hey, there's an idea!

 

Word. :-P

Right now I am in a production of “The Miracle Worker”. We open on Friday so people are starting to wear costumes and makeup. Last night I was doing a scene with one of the men and I felt like I was staring at McCoy from the first season of TOS. This guy had so much blue eye shadow on and bright pink lipstick. Needless to say he was told to tone it down. Also I keep feeling like LaForge because I wear glasses the whole show and no one can really see my eyes. It’s like my own personal visor.

 

So what have I learned from all this

Star Trek = Miracle Worker

Kansas' Story reminded me of my own.

 

I own a 94 Pontiac Firebird with T-Tops. I was driving along one day without said T-Tops in. It was a pretty day and it was rather relaxing...until from out of nowhere came this huge flood of water. There was not a cloud in the sky....turns out the guy/gal that lives in the brick house down the road (who happen to own a garden hose...go figure) thought it was rather amusing.....

Why is it that people that refuse to work for something consider someone that DID work for it to only be "Lucky"?

[Images 0]

I know scientists say luck doesn't exist but my god it does. Some people just have that specific chance so often to be in the right place all the time by pure fluke.

I will cite an incident that occurred to my cousin at his bachelor party, held at the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City. He sat down at one of the $10 slot machines, plunked in two tokens and pulled the lever. A few moments later, the alarms went off, lights started flashing, and he was richer by 42 hundred dollars. Now some people will chalk it up to probability and statistics; that the machine was ready to pay out. However, as Images pointed out, he was in the right place at the right time.

 

I will cite another example as well. CPR has a 20% success rate. With early AED intervention, that rate doubles. With early advanced cardiac life support care (paramedics) it increases to 60%. Even with those percentages, CPR can and will still fail. Several years ago, I was credited with a CPR save, while riding for my local volunteer ambulance squad. I will also point out that this was in the days before the availability of automatic external defibrillators (AEDs). A call came in for a man down, CPR in progress, around 1 or 2 in the afternoon. We managed to roll a three-man basic life support ambulance (no paramedics) within 8 minutes. Our local police had a cruiser around the corner when the 911 call came in, and were on scene in a matter of seconds, limiting the patient's anoxic state (The brain dies in 8 minutes without oxygen). An available medic unit was on scene minutes after we were. CPR continued, as the medics pushed drugs and defibrillated the patient. After the third shock, delivered while backing into the hospital, the medics got a rhythm back. The patient walked out of the hospital several days later. Again, probability and statistics could be cited. However, it was luck that played a large part of it.

 

I was on another CPR call to a nursing home in town, several months ago. Conditions were almost identical, medics got a rhythm wheeling the patient out to the rig. The patient died a couple of days later.

 

That indefinable force known as "Luck" plays a large part into everything we do.

Anyone happen to catch "Pirate Master", the summer fill in from producer Mark Burnett of "Survivor" fame? I was surprised - I enjoyed it!

 

....Pirates are way cooler then Ninjas....

D'oh!

 

I meant to watch it but I completely forgot last night.

 

I did catch "On the Lot", which I was kind of interested in (I haven't been interested in a reality show in forever, two is unheard of), but I didn't really like it. It had promise, but it wasn't as good as I hoped. But Pirate Master looks entertaining.
