There’s something new for SchadeBLOG that I’d like to draw your attention to for a small moment. But before I do that, I would like to take an opportunity to thank Shelli for her suggestion of a tagline for SchadeBLOG. Her idea is now what appears under the title of this blog, and I am very grateful to her for coming up with it. I’ve had a couple of comments on it so far, including one from a guy who said he didn’t understand it. He suggested I put a degree symbol after the 75, to more clearly indicate I’m refering to temperature. I don’t know if that’s necessary, to be honest. Can I get a vote on that?
Anyway, thanks again to Shelli for coming up with the idea. I really think it was just what the doctor ordered.
And now on to the announcement. I’m not sure if many of you noticed the new graphic in my sidebar, but SchadeBLOG now has a store. It’s been my lifelong dream for a few months now to have some merchandise, particularly t-shirts, with the SchadeBLOG logo available for sale. Thanks to Cafe Press, that dream can be realized. And so I started up a store. Right now, all that’s out there are items with the generic SchadeBLOG logo (what you see above, without the background). I hope eventually to load up some items that have various versions of the logo with the different backgrounds I’ve been using. I also hope to put up some items with some of my more popular HNT images, as well as some other photographs I’ve been taking. Eventually, I’d like to make so much money from this store, that I can quit my day job and devote all of my time to my family and this site and writing and stuff. Wouldn’t that just be total coolness, or something?
So get over there and buy stuff. Or not.

Well, as your wife, I think it might be nice to have the degree symbol. It isn’t too hard to add is it? I know how to add a copyright symbol and that is saying a lot LOL
Love ya!

The Phantom Blogger has tagged you…
This really weird guy asked me, “Johnny, do you play Baseball?”
Then he just walked away. Funny thing is that may name is not Johnny, and no, I do NOT play baseball. Terrance Mann may think that baseball is life, and the we all need to more like Moonlight Graham and “go the distance”. However, I cannot throw a ball to save my life. Does this make me retarded? I just don’t think so. So playing baseball is not that important to me. My passion is for cooking. The thrill that comes from someone longfully injesting your creation is orgasmic. I can get enough of it. I don’t mean eating–I mean feeding. Feeding feeds my soul like nothing else. I feed all day long. It is the generousity of yourself. If only the world would feed a bit more, rather than eat or play baseball. Think of the possibilities!

I like it better with the degree symbol. It is easier to read. Thanks for the mention.
I totally get your humor and you make me laugh.

Oh yeah, I want to do that, too…quit my day job and write and blog and stuff. If it works out for you, let me know.

I was drunk. Atleast that was my excuse. She wasn’t half bad looking, more like 60/40. So slightly under half bad looking I guess. She also smelled like soup, so that made it worse. But that is the league I play in–not being so good looking myself. The night had started slow. I downed a couple of cold ones at the local slop chute. Having liquid courage in me, I decided to go on the prowl. I didn’t know if I was after a good woman for the night, or one that could be considered a prank on myself. Sometimes the ladder is a bit more fun. I went for the prank. I spotted her at the food court she had a quadruple, triple half latte in her left hand and nachos in her right. She was reading Schadeblog on her IMAC while listening to her IPOD. I wouldn’t call it hoggin, since she made hogs look small. The was more like whaling. I had my boom box and my Mr. Microphone. I set the radio in the chair next to hers. I did an impromptu karaoke and serenaded her. She couldn’t here a word of what I was saying but she knew I performing for her. Thankfully, She had her headphones on. I had been quoting Dori’s whale speak from finding Nemo. I kinda turned it into a musical. She took her headphones off. I asked her what she was listening to. she said, “they might be giants”.
I said “you are one to talk”.
She said, “hun?”
I said “forget it, you want to go and get some ice cream or something?”
She said “would I?”
I said “hair lip”. She didn’t get it.
So we went for Ice Cream…To Be Continued
