Is your kid too stupid for training wheels?

Is your kid too stupid for training wheels? Do you have to duct tape their hands to the handle bars and feet to the peddles? If so the new MY KID CAN RIDE A BIKE TOO STICK is the product for you. Its a stick that attaches to your kids bike so they think that they are riding like the smart kids. Little do they know that you are in full control of their entire life. There for them every step of the way: stupid-kid-cant-ride-bike-stick

Pay no attention to the 2 children in the unattended stroller in the background.

Idiots on Southwest flight care more about their documents than other people

Take a look at these idiots on the this Southwest Flight that caught on fire today.  There are a disturbing number of people that would rather save their paperwork at the expense of other people:

Stay out of Wisconsin- Police can track you by GPS for fun court upholds

wisconsin_police_track_youDo you want to visit Wisconsin?  You may want to think twice.  If you decide to you should be aware that their cops can track you.  For fun.  They don’t need a reason or probable cause.  Just- the motivation to do it.  So you go to Wisconsin, get tagged with their GPS then leave.  They can still track you.  How much fun is that?  Not only do you have to worry about your OWN stalkers, but you can add the Wisconsin police to the list.  But its okay, they are allowed to.  ACLU, please save us.

Update: Nobody knows why Buckingham Fountain isn’t on.

2:24 PM I just called the Chicago Park District.  I was transferred to the central division.  They stated that they do not control the fountain and that I should contact the Parkways Foundation.

2:27 PM I called Parkways and they have no idea-  They only deal with fund raising.

2:33 PM On my third call Janice, the operator for Chicago Park District transferred me again to the Central Park District.   Patrick Levar is in charge of the fountain. He may or may not be in the building.  Janice will have him call me.  His assistant is out of the office.  I was able to leave a voice mail for her.

I will post any further updates!

Kiefer Sutherland Head-Butts

sutherland-owns-mccolloughI just laughed when I saw this.  Why use your fist when you can use your head? Gawker reports:

Kiefer Sutherland is trying to explain why he head-butted designer Jack McCollough at a Met Costume Institute gala after-party Tuesday night, possibly violating his probation. He says he was defending the honor of Brooke Shields, who was knocked over by McCollough, according to Sutherland. Alternate theory: serial drunk driver Sutherland was just completely wasted, which is why he was running around a hotel bar earlier in the evening “wearing a giant feather boa and acting totally crazy.”

Gery J Chico does not care about the park district

gery-j-chico-failure

I posted a few days ago about how the Chicago Park District blatantly lied to me.  I contacted Gery J. Chico, of Chico & Nunes, P.C., who is the President of the Chicago Park District Board of Commissioners.  Gery didn’t feel the need to take the time to reply to my message.

Gery J. Chico do your job, or step down.  If you wish to tell him what you think about his inaction you can call him at 312-884-5666.  His office address is 333 West Wacker Drive, Suite 1800, Chicago, IL 60606.

All I want to know is why Buckingham Fountain is not in operation, contradictory to what is stated in this press release.   I also requested an apology for the park district flat out lying to me.  Guess you cant always get what you want.

When does this kool aid expire?

Hi Kraft.

I had a few days that I paid attention in school. I can read numbers. I can put some things together. I cannot figure out when this crap expires tho: kool_aid_expires_when

Is it Feb 1, 2011 or Feb 11, 2002? Or is it Feb 11, 2001? Why can’t Kraft just put a normal date on it? Like one without a ton of extra random numbers?

Calvin Borel is my hero

Seeing Calvin win today was amazing.  His story is amazing.  His race was amazing.  His horse, Mine That Bird, a $9,500 horse, was amazing.  calvin_borel

Chicago Park District Flat out lies

After visiting Buckingham Fountain on 4/30/2009 at 9PM and it not operating as outlined (here) I wrote them a nice email asking about the status. All I got back was a big lie. Read More »
