..to come up with entertaining material to write about.

Ha!  I just fooled you sensative suckers into this post.  You'll like the video at the end of this one though, I'll bet.  Maybe not.  You'll have to watch it to find out.

So, Kelsey and I are painting some of the interior of the ol' homestead.  Some walls remain white while others transmogrify into blue.  If you think "transmogrify" isn't a word, go read some Calvin & Hobbes.  It'll do you some good.

Anyhow, I'll let you know how the painting turns out.

Also, we're sanding and staining some of my ultra-macho homemade furniture.  I nailed together some boards and when two separate entities resulted, I dubbed one "book case" and the other "entertainment thingy".

Why all of the home projects? you may ask.  Because my parents are coming to town and Kelsey is worried about not looking like an accomplished and independent, successful family! I say.  Well, that's not entirely accurate.  It's all stuff we want to do, and company is a good motivator.  So there.

There's a bright blue BMX-style bike that's been chained to a pole outside my office building for about a week.  I'm a bit suspicious, but it's probably just a bike.

...or not.

So, a co-oworker of mine sent an email to everyone in the company advertising a FREE 27 inch tv.  Apparently many people responded, but I was the first.  Sweet!  It will become the monitor for the Nintendo.  Excellent.

Hopefully that funky smell problem will fix itself if I leave it out in the garage for a week or two.

Ok, so I'm pro-police.  I think a lot of young people like to be all cool via anti-establishment nonsense, but I don't fall for it.  Anyhow, the police are here to protect and serve, and if you were, say, a discheveled lady acting nonsensical to a male cop, he'd try and do his best.  Even if you suggested the nickname "doodoo" for an him, he'd try and help you out.  But if you try to bite him, you're going down.  Plain as day.

Is the above hypothetical?  No, my friends, it is actual.  And, lucky for you, footage of the above events exists.  Enjoy.

That's all for now.  Enjoy your weekends!
