I just had someone cancel on a sales demo this afternoon because his wife just went into labor. That's either the best excuse or most epic lie ever.
The first time I saw the Aurora in full effect was in Sudbury ten years ago. I was shocked by it.... I was expecting the Northern Lights to change the colour of night, but these things dance all over the sky like a solar system-sized nightclub. They are absolutely hypnotic to watch, a true phenomenon. At my level, you may get to see them once every couple years or more. Sucks.
I'd love to see an Aurora, but I'm probably too far south. Apparently the Great Lakes states may be able to see it tonight, so I'll have to step out and at least look. In breaking, earth-shattering news: Pat Robertson says something intelligent.
The Floridian version of the Aurora Borealis is when drunk Mexicans set off fireworks on a random day in November. They usually follow it up with gunfire into the air, which then lands in a pensioner's window. Seeing the lights is on my to-do list. Bonus points if I can dogsled to a remote location to view them with only an Inuit guide, some guns, and a large Bowie knife to do savage combat with a polar bear.
What's the old saying? Pics or it didn't happen? So much KONY conversation going on, way too busy reading about NFL free agency to look at it yet. Anyone have a Tweet length explanation?
I really hate full moons. All of the craziest of the crazies decide to show their faces. I just had a guy come in my office declaring that: his family owns the Ringling Brothers' Circus and they own their own bank, he sleeps in his car, he used to work in Africa, his family is going to make the government give him a Florida driver's license, and that his brother is the largest oil driller in Texas. Yee fucking haw.
He wanted me to tell him what it took to get a Florida driver's license; and he wanted me to write a renter's policy for him, even though he is sleeping in his car, and his belongings are in a storage unit.
Well, shit, DA, just write him whatever the hell he wants. It's not like insurance companies pay claims anyway.
Seriously. The guy is trying to find jobs for unemployed African children, and now he's a bad guy? I guess you can't please everyone.
I'm going to have to produce a video featuring a sad 5 year old and young, pretty, white girls about this very thing. KungFu Mike is killing it though with his Kony movement: I will take the low hanging fruit myself:
My German bar bothers me greatly. There is this lovely beverage there called Optimator. A 7% Bavarian Dopplebock that tastes like rye bread. The grumpy procuress puts it on $4 a bottle tonight. That is not the distressing part. On Optimator Night she also has fucking karaoke night. I'm going to go in there and ruin David Hasselhof songs like no tomorrow. See how she fucking likes that.
