The excitement in the voices on the boat…..can you imagine the shock and awe?!?!

Enjoy.

Put your coffee down before popping the video….some of these are so pathetically predictable, but the stupidity of humans is boundless.  Enjoy!

That’s a FAT Wake Boarder!

I’ve seen porpoises surf the bow waves of boats many times, but I’ve never seen anything like this!  Ah….the wonder of nature in her never ending glory.  Enjoy.

This Was Me, on Friday

Well…..after five weeks of the flu, and maybe a hack….or then again, maybe not, I’m ready to re-engage.  My site crashed….and a friend at MOTUS informed me that during the time my site was down, she was “redirected” to a blonde porn site.  *sigh*

Anyhoo….all’s well that ends well, and as my friend Caj knows….once January is gone, it all gets better, every day, in every way.

Ciao, babies!

Moochie Contemplates the Coming Year

It’s been two years since this beautiful guy showed up on our doorstep.  Time flies when you’re having fun.

Wishing you and yours a prosperous and healthy 2013!

Jackson, the man at the counter, looked at us and smiled sadly.  He said “normally I don’t tell people this, but my mother, she is in a coma in the Bahamas, and has been since before Mother’s Day.  So I haven’t had my mother for Mother’s Day, and not for Thanksgiving, and I won’t for Christmas either.”  He looked at Blonde Mom and said “So you can be my mother this year, and as a gift to you I give you this plant.”  Then he looked at me, “you are so lucky to have your mother”.  (Amen!)  The three of us stood there with tears in our eyes.  A most amazing moment which brings home what the true spirit of Christmas is all about.

On our way home, Mom and I were talking and laughing as I made a joke about something goofy she said….we “get” each other to the point that sometimes we crack ourselves up to absolute silliness.  Which is where we were as we stopped at a big intersection.  A young guy in a truck next to us saw us laughing and smiled and waved.  We waved back.  He then picked up something off the seat next to him, and raised it to to his window to show us.  It was a beautiful carved wooden sign, about 18 x 24 inches, that said “Laugh, Live, Love”.

Thumbs up!!  So then he put his finger up like “wait one” and grabbed another sign, about the same size, that was also beautifully carved.  It had martini glasses and whatnot indicating it was a PARTY sign.  Two thumbs up!!!  We both laughed and waved as the light turned green.  (Did I mention that it is hot today, and we both had our air on, so this whole scenario was done via sign language?).

All of this occurred in a span of about ten minutes.   Ten minutes I’ll remember forever.  Something to think about.  You can find the true spirit of Christmas in the most amazing places.

Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas.

IT CAN BE HARD KEEPING A STRAIGHT FACE AS A COURT REPORTER.
These are from a book called Disorder in the American Courts and are things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and published by court reporters that had the torment of staying calm while the exchanges were taking place:

ATTORNEY:  What was the first thing your husband said to you that morning?
WITNESS:      He said, ‘Where am I, Cathy?’
ATTORNEY:  And why did that upset you?
WITNESS:      My name is Susan!

ATTORNEY:  What gear were you in at the moment of the impact?
WITNESS:      Gucci sweats and Reeboks.

ATTORNEY:  Are you sexually active?
WITNESS:      No, I just lie there.

ATTORNEY:  What is your date of birth?
WITNESS:      July 18th.
ATTORNEY:  What year?
WITNESS:      Every year.

ATTORNEY:   How old is your son, the one living with you?
WITNESS:       Thirty-eight or thirty-five, I can’t remember which.
ATTORNEY:   How long has he lived with you?
WITNESS:       Forty-two years.

ATTORNEY:   This myasthenia gravis, does it affect your memory at all? WITNESS:      Yes.
ATTORNEY:  And in what ways does it affect your memory?
WITNESS:      I forget..
ATTORNEY:  You forget? Can you give us an example of something you forgot?

ATTORNEY:   Now doctor, isn’t it true that when a person dies in his sleep, he doesn’t know about it until the next morning?
WITNESS:      Did you actually pass the bar exam?

ATTORNEY:  The youngest son, the 20-year-old, how old is he?
WITNESS:      He’s 20, much like your IQ.

ATTORNEY:  Were you present when your picture was taken?
WITNESS:      Are you shitting me?

ATTORNEY:  So the date of conception (of the baby) was August 8th?
WITNESS:      Yes.
ATTORNEY:  And what were you doing at that time?
WITNESS:      Getting laid.

ATTORNEY:  She had three children , right?
WITNESS:      Yes.
ATTORNEY:  How many were boys?
WITNESS:      None.
ATTORNEY: Were there any girls?
WITNESS:      Your Honor, I think I need a different attorney. Can I get a new attorney?

ATTORNEY:  How was your first marriage terminated?
WITNESS:      By death..
ATTORNEY:  And by whose death was it terminated?
WITNESS:      Take a guess.

ATTORNEY:   Can you describe the individual?
WITNESS:      He was about medium height and had a beard.
ATTORNEY:  Was this a male or a female?
WITNESS:      Unless the Circus was in town I’m going with male.

ATTORNEY:   Is your appearance here this morning pursuant to a deposition notice which I sent to your attorney?
WITNESS:      No, this is how I dress when I go to work.

ATTORNEY:   Doctor , how many of your autopsies have you performed on dead people?
WITNESS:      All of them. The live ones put up too much of a fight.

ATTORNEY:  ALL your responses MUST be oral, OK? What school did you go to?
WITNESS:      Oral…

ATTORNEY:  Do you recall the time that you examined the body?
WITNESS:      The autopsy started around 8:30 PM

ATTORNEY: And Mr. Denton was dead at the time?
WITNESS:      If not, he was by the time I finished.

ATTORNEY:   Are you qualified to give a urine sample?
WITNESS:      Are you qualified to ask that question?

ATTORNEY:   Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?
WITNESS:      No.
ATTORNEY:  Did you check for blood pressure?
WITNESS:      No.
ATTORNEY:  Did you check for breathing?
WITNESS:      No..
ATTORNEY:  So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?
WITNESS:      No.
ATTORNEY:  How can you be so sure, Doctor?
WITNESS:      Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar.  ATTORNEY:   I see, but could the patient have still been alive, nevertheless?
WITNESS:      Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law… or he could have been a democrat…

Will Muschamp does the Gator Chomp at Game’s End

Matt Elam’s Snow Angel Celebration

Needless to say, the fans at Clown School were none too pleased.  And in case there are any non-Gators reading…..here’s why we call them Clown College:

Does she NOT have any friends?

Finally….the officiating.  “Sucked” doesn’t begin to cover it.  I can’t really think of a word that captures such a shocking display.  So, for the ACC and their notoriously inept officials…..OVERCOME ADVERSITY ON THE FIELD!

Hey ACC and Your Crooked Refs, Too!

GO GATORS!!!!!!!!

~ Blonde Gator

Bonus:  An EXCELLENT review of the game.  Plus….the icing on the cake ~ highlights of the 2012 season, up to an including our victory over FSU:

Lee Corso Picks The Gators, Scaring Kirk to Death in the Process

The Gators proceeded to play one of the most bizarre first halves of ball I’ve ever seen….21 points on takeaways, while gaining only 29 yards during the half.  And the officiating!!!!   Suffice it to say that I’m not the only one who thought “SUCKED” is a mild term for the officiating.  Here’s Coach Boom at the half-time interview (with a friendly reporter):

That’s going to be a t-shirt, for sure, and a Will Muschamp signature.  Forever.

The team played lights out during the 3rd quarter, and by the end of the game, had once again put up more points in the second half (23) than they had during the first half (21).  44 – 11, good guys.  Sorry Steve, you got owned.

Video highlights of the game, here.

It’s 24 hours after kick-off, and I’m still amped up by the game, and this season.  It’s been a hell of a ride.  And next Saturday, well….

Please, someone, give me a “JORTS” comment

Love it…..we are already in the Leg Humpers’ heads (check out the comments).

GO GATORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
