Identity theft and the leftist spin

These idiots at CNN think that stealing and illegally using some one else's social security number should not be called identity theft, as long as your don't drain their checking accounts. Are they serious?

Hockey

Hockey season is off to a great start for both the Gladiators and the Thrashers. Both clubs won again last night. Thrashers lead their division, are tied in their conference and 2nd in the league in points. Gladiators, lead the division, their conference and are tied for first in the league in points. What a great way to start.

Are you white and nerdy?

Hockey Fight!!

Way to GO Guillaume!!

Hockey and stuff

Hockey is back. Tonight is the second home game of the gladiators season and they are off to a really good start. The Thrashers have also started better than they have ever before as well, so it has been a good month. Tonight's game the kids get to wear their costumes, so that should be interesting. Below is a hilarious toyota commercial.

11 months....and stuff

Its been over 11 months without a cigarette. I have saved over $2000, and not smoked more than 13,500 cigaretts. I know I have said it before, but those numbers are staggering. It hasn't always been easy...but it has been worth it. Anyway, the new job is going well, the kids are healthyish, Kelly got a cool job now, there is a beer tasting friday, and its HOCKEY TIME!!! So, I guess things are generally pretty good. Thats it for now.

Funny unaired copier commercial

Buy your stuff back...again

The Governor signed a new law allowing the state to operate a "thrift store" to sell us the stuff they stole from us at the airport. While we should be shocked, Ga is following the lead of numerous other states who have been selling your stuff on EBAY or through various other auctions or public sales.

UPDATE: I went there, so you don't have to, and what a waste. There were bins of pocket knives and corkscrews as reported, and they were a dollar like we were told, however, there were no "bargins" no real steals, except for the fact the government is now profiting off the stuff they stole from us. But don't waste your time driving down there. There were 5-6 bins of knives, corkscrews, and scissors, all of which you can get in better condition and brand new from your local dollar store.

Gas Prices

Well, it looks like I was wromg again. About a year ago, with gas prices over $3 a gallon, and idiots buying it up saying the world was going to run out of fuel...whatever. Still, I made the statement that we would never see gas prices under $2 again. Today however, I paid $1.99, and I have seen a couple of prices for less than that. So woohoo for us.

Atlantagasprices.com shows you where the lowest, and highest prices in the area are. They had reports today of $1.93!!

MOVING Sucks!!

This is the latest installment of my things that suck collumn. I know its been a while since the last one so here goes.

I hate moving. I hate packing. I hate rental trucks, driving rental trucks, packing rental truck, and unloading rental trucks. Returning the rental truck was ok...this time, but only because I got money back!! But I still hate moving.

We are pretty well situated now. Most of the boxes are unpacked. Most of the pictures are on the walls, and most of the stuff has a place...most of it. That is the tricky part, finding spots for all our crap.

Anyway, I was smart enough to make a chiropractor appointment for Monday. I made it after lifting the third box, I think. We were also smart enough to get some good friends and family members to come help pack, load, unload, watch kids, unpack, sort, and clean. Without them, we would still be, well who knows, but it wouldn't be good.

So thanks to everyone, for making moving a little less sucky.

Bush....saving our lives everyday!

This clip explains how Bush has saved us from all those dangers just waiting for the right opportunity to strike us dead. It goes indepth on the lessons Bush learned post 8-29 (Katrina), and the "War on Hurricanes" that followed. Thanks to Bush's unprecedented leadership, we have not been struck by a hurricane since.

PETA Kills Animals!!

Hypocrisy is the mother of all credibility problems, and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has it in spades. While loudly complaining about the "unethical" treatment of animals by restaurant owners, grocers, farmers, scientists, anglers, and countless other Americans, the group has its own dirty little secret.

PETA kills animals. By the thousands.

Pluto gets booted...Cafe Press gets boosted!!

Just 2 days after Pluto gets nixed as an official planet, CafePress.Com has 390 designs on over 4000 products! Now, I don't really care at all if Pluto is a planet or a cold rock orbiting the sun really slowly, but 74 years of planethood should grandfather it in...in my opinion. I just wonder how much money we spend to decide if we should call it a dwarf. I wonder when the ACLU will sue so we can call it the dimensionally challenged planet instead.

Rubik's Cube

I thought I was smart being able to do the cube. But there are videos of people doing it one handed in 20 seconds. The 2 hand world record is just under 10 seconds. I only got under 2 minutes once...They have 4 year old kids doing it in under 1 minute. Thats nuts. Here you can see a guy do it in 2:18, BLINDFOLDED!!

Project 2

I started a new project in another really cool building called One Atlantic Center. It used to be known world wide as the IBM Tower and was the tallest building in Atlanta until 1992, when it was surpassed by the Bank of America Plaza. Anyway, I am working on the 36th floor which has stunning views of the rest of Atlanta's architecture.
This is a night shot of the top 15 floors (give or take) and the spire.

Hurricanes...

Well it seems Max Mayfield is getting bored, or maybe he is missing his spot on the evening news, or maybe he just wants to say "I told you so!!", again. Whatever the case is, he is making even more ridiculous claims than he made last year and CNN was there to report it.

COTD: President Bush covers a favorite U2 song.

Rainy days, make me feel like...

But on the bright side, there have been no hurricanes, or even close calls. Natural gas is a pre-katrina levels. The ocean water temps are cooler than last year, prompting meteorologist to lower their preivious doom and gloom worst ever hurricane predictions to just gloomy almost as bad a last year predictions. So much for global warming and everything getting exponentially worse every year huh. In 1974 Time magazine wrote an article called "Another Ice Age" with remarkably similar tone to this year's frantic and dire report on the horrible effects and imminent deaths caused by "Global Warming". My thought is this will blow over and in a few years it will be "Aliens are coming to kill us all", maybe I will start preparing now for that one.

No Comment!!

Ok, I am shocked by the lack of intrest or initiative in the general blogging and blog reading crowd. I am very disappointed that the post of the last few weeks have gone largely un-commented. But maybe that's just the way our lazy and apathetic world has gone, you can die and as long as the posts keep coming no-one will even notice!

BTW...A link or shoutout on your blog or website is way better than a comment, so take no offense if that applies to you.

This is the craze du jour. Kids, Teens, and even adults everywhere are blowing 2 liter bottles over houses, and across their work parking lots. Looks like fun doesn't it.

The Truth

This may be the real reason you can no longer take your cologne with you on a plane.

Or maybe not, but is it right that they get to keep our stuff and then sell it? We aren't talking about dangerous stuff here, fingernail clippers, give me a break. "Fly this plane into the White House or I'll give you a manicure?" Get real.

And check out this little tid bit the senate has passed to further restrict our rights as U.S. citizens.

Unbelievable

This is one of the most unbelievable things I have ever seen. How the Enron or World Com people get indicted but these Bayer people don't I just don't understand. If there was ever just cause for a government investigation it would be now. I am really in shock over the incredible allegations you will see in this video. The "good news" if you can call it that, is Bayer has already settled $600M in lawsuits, prior to this enormous class action filed earlier this month. Baxter Healthcare is also named in the suit. Maybe a record breaking verdict will bankrupt this murderous corporation and show the rest of these white collar criminals you will get caught. I hope the people responsible for these decisions spend the rest of their lives in jail...that's better than their victims recieved.


I found this video on Sharpening Iron

A New York Times article about Bayer

This article on the American Disaster Machine was also found there

Yummy!!

Where can I get this!!

And check out what Lew Rockwell has to say about the foiled terror plots.

World Trade Center

I got to go see the movie World Trade Center this morning. I thought it was very well done, and as advertised it was emotional. Kelly cried through most of the movie. The movie focuses on the entrapment of two Port Authority Police Officers and their struggle to survive after the towers collapse on them. It is definately worth checking out, and btw, if you go to AMC before noon, tickets are $4.

Check out this very sad 9/11 video if you haven't already.

New terror plot foiled....yeah right

How do you know its election time? The terror propaganda machine fires back up. Interesting how except for those few inept dorks in Miami, there has been almost no talk of attempted terrorism since the last election, but now with the pressure republicans are facing to hold control of congress its time for the scary terror alerts again. Over the next few months we will hear all about how they have done so much to keep us safe, but if we don't re-elect them we will all die horrible chemical weapon induced deaths. So watch out for all those scary terrorist and beware of rapidly changing color coded warning labels all over the bottom of your tv. It seems imminent that we will have a brief spike in the terror warning level just to remind us all how dangerous life is, and how unsafe we really are. Maybe they got that part right?

Traffic!!

Yeah...so I left work at like 3 in the morning and got slammed in traffic on 85 North. They were pacing traffic for 30 minute intervals overnight to allow the construction crew to set the new beams over 85 @ Old Norcross. So I exited and parked on Old Norcross, and hung out on the bridge for about an hour waiting for the next paced traffic break and the subsequential setting of a beam. I guess this makes me a pretty big dork, but I had to see what it was like to set these beams. I have to admit, it was kind of a let down...but at the same time, I guess it was a bit interesting. They had these big cranes on tracks so the truck drove up with the beams, it was attached to 2 cranes who then drove the beams into place. Anyway, I stayed up until after 4 am to see this, so I will try to remember it for a while.

My First Project!

I got to go see my first project today. It is a really small job on the 12th floor of the Hurt Building in downtown Atlanta. So after a week in training, I have been thrown into the fire. I guess we will see if I know anything now. It looks like it will be a fun little job. I get to be a trim carpenter for a minute because we have some 4 piece crown to remove and replace, and a few cabinets and a door to install as well. So, tomorrow night I will be jumping in with both feet. And yeah, I said night...I will be working night shifts in this building, which as far as I am concerned, is a good thing.

9 months

Nine months smoke free. Woohoo. Nearly 11,000 cigarettes not smoked. Nearly $1600 saved. That is sweet. So tell any smokers that you know that they stink and to quit. They will be better for it, although you will never be able to convince them.

More about Cork-Howard

Ok. I guess I haven't given all the details yet, so here goes. I am going to be a commercial superintendent. I believe that I will be working in the interiors side of the company, which basically means that I will not actually build the structures, but I will be finishing the interiors. We would do any necessary demolition to remove interior walls etc..., then build new walls or otherwise re-arrange and refinish the layout of the buildings interiors. Our company also does ground up construction, where the supers actually build the structures and do the interior build out as well. As a super, I will be responsible for maintaining timeline, scheduling, and oversight of the subs and our own employees who are onsite, and be available as well as capable to answer questions about the construction from the subs, owner reps, etc...Obviously this is a very basic outline, but I hope it gives you a little understanding.

Right now I am training, so I am working beside another super on his project. It is a nearly total interior renovation of a two floor building for GA Power. It is scheduled to be a 6 week project. I will basically be bouncing for several weeks working with different supers to get a feel for what they do and how they do it, then thrown to the wolves to get started on my own project.

My new Job, again!

Well, I got a new job. This one should be a real challenge and an interesting change of pace. The link above will take you to the company website, check it out. They really do some awesome work. And, I get a truck!! That is too cool!! Paid vacations, company cars, holidays, insurance...I could get used to this corporate sell out thing. Anyway, the days of HomeLife have gone, so hopefully I will be a bit more available these days. I got home at 3:30 today. That is sweet, but we start at 6am, that means I have to leave at 5. That really sucks, but what can you do? At least I get home early.

30 Days, continued

The hit TV show, "30 Days", aired the first episode of its new season Wednesday. On this episode, a "minute man" who himself was an immigrant from Cuba, went to live with a family of illegal aliens to see what it was like. The minute man, had legally come to America as a child with his parents. He took a hard line stand against people who entered illegally from Mexico, saying they should all go back and do it legitimately. After spending 30 days living with this family and traveling to Mexico to see where they came from, it is interesting to see what the minute man had to say. If you want to see it for yourself, let me know...

30 Days

The critically acclaimed tv show 30 Days is back!! Wednesday nights on FX at 10 pm Morgan Spurlock, (Supersize Me), will again unleash his brand of hard hitting facts that look uniquely into the predjudices of America. This is truly a series not to miss. Set up a season pass!!

War Videos

Ok, I have been incredibly hard on the president for his project in the middle east, but our troops deserve our support. They are fighting a war, and although I don't like it, these boys deserve the best we can offer. Obviously, I have been perusing the archives of YouTube. There are many, many more videos shot by our guys that have been posted. Some are extremely graphic, but all give a view of the war not shown on your local news. Below is a video shot by a soldier in Iraq, soundtrack by Evenescence.


Here is a tribute video to all vets

War on TERRORable Diseases!

Ok, this is a little crass and over the top but well worth the time. The points are all valid and just continue to prove the hypocracy of our presidential idiot. However, if you find political humor, especially that which may demean embryos, offensive, save yourself the frustration and dont push play. You have been warned.


More from Jon Stewart on stem cell research

Really funny, not political, corporate spoof thingy.

Check this out, this guy is good, and the music is a trip too!!

Idiot!

Well, our fearless leader, and bumbling idiot, President Bush has finally done it. He used his veto power to stop a bill for the first time since taking office 5 1/2 years ago. But was it to cut spending, to remove pork, or to end wars? Nope, this moron used it to stop stem cell research which scientists say could be a renewable source of replacement cells and tissues to treat Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases, spinal cord injuries, diabetes, strokes, burns and more. So, way to go moron, you just continue to ruin lives at every turn.

10,000. Ten Thousand. That is a huge number. Think of it in dollars, $10,000...or maybe in hotdogs, (ok not in hotdogs, too gross) think of 10,000 ice cream bars! 10,000 is a lot no matter how you look at it. I have now not smoked 10,000 cigarettes. That rocks!!

I know, I said a few days ago i was not going to post much on here for a few days, then, I posted more than I had in months, sorry. But don't worry, you will be caught up in no time!

A taste of hockey

Atlanta Thrashers prospect developement camp started last week. I have had the opportunity to go to a couple of sessions and see our first round pick Bryan Little and a few other teenage hotshots. It was pretty fun. On a more serious note, Abby's asthma has been acting up this week and she has been pretty close to taking a trip downtown, but fortunately we have been able to manage her with the rescue and quick relief meds. Hopefully hockey's return will motivate her to recover quickly!

New website format

Hey, be sure to check out the new format at NateQuit.

8 months!!

I haven't smoked for just over 8 months. That is way too cool. At this time last year I couldn't imagine going to the movies for 2 hours without a cigarette. Now, wow, 8 moths without. I love it. I have saved over $1400 and not smoked over 9600 cigarettes. Anyway...I am working to update my website, so I won't be posting much here for a few days, but I guess that is no surprise.

Nada

Sé su sido un rato ya que he escrito algo así que decidí que ya que no tengo nada para decir, yo lo diría en el español. Tal vez ahora usted entenderá exactamente que aburrido soy. Usted siempre podría tratar de escuchar al fútbol de la radio en el español, esto es bastante gracioso, sobre todo cuando usted no puede entender hasta que países ellos mandan a porque sus nombres son diferentes como en Inglaterra y Alemania.

No more hockey

Gwinnett lost in Game 5 last night to end their 05-06 season. It was a great year and we finished with an amazing record, as the American Conference Champs. Unfortunately Alaska won the Kelly Cup, but who cares, who likes Alaska. So we now have to spend the next 4 1/2 months without hockey. This could possibly be harder than not smoking.

GAME 5!!!

After going down 3-0 in the series, Gwinnett played like champions tonight to win 6-1 over the Alaska Aces. It was an absolutely beautiful game with well executed offense, as usual for Gwinnett, and a defense that was unbreakable, unlike the defense we have seen in recent games. It was a game to remember and keeps our hopes alive for another night.

New website

My website containing my rants, pics, and junk was lost, stolen or otherwise missing in action, so I had to get a new host and republish it all so I am terribly sorry if any of the previously posted links don't work. I will try to repair them all ASAP. However, here is the link to the new site. It contains all the same crap as before, plus, MY NEW RANT!! Check it out.

Here's your crap!

Ok, as requested here is the definition of "here's your crap" as it is inteded to be used by me, the creater and owner of the phrase.

9/11 movies

My personal opinion is that it is not too soon, and it is quite possible that these movies should have been released sooner. It seems people have forgotten how they felt that day, but to read what I think about that, you will need to view my new rant. However, I went and saw United 93 this weekend and thought it was a pretty good movie. It was probably a good representation of how a lot of things happened, but I don't see this film every being critically acclaimed or winning any major awards. Also coming soon, August 9, to be exact, is the Oliver Stone movie, "World Trade Center" starring Nicholas Cage. I am reserving judgement, but am afraid it will be more sappy and less accurate than the first 9/11 movie. Based strictly on a story telling, fictional account, and entertainment scale, this will probably be a much larger hit.


(btw...I had to use Internet Explorer to view this site, and yes i know how bad it sucks, but firefox wouldn't open it for me.)

6 month anniversary

I haven't smoked for over 6 months. That is pretty freakin cool. I have virtually no cravings anymore, but occosionally I will smell one and think it smells good!? How twisted is that? But who cares, I have been proven completely nuts before now, so a little more evidence doesn't really change things does it. We are still waiting to hear if Gwinnett will be playing Alaska or Fresno, they are going to game 7 Monday. At this rate it may be June before hockey is over, and that is fine with me.

Conference Champs!!!

Gwinnett Gladiators are the American Conference Champions and will be playing either Alaska or Fresno in the ECHL Championship series, the Kelly Cup, next week. That is so awesome. This is Gwinnett's first ever trip to the finals, so it is very exciting. Anyway, work is going well but the hours are quite long and I am tired, so I'm off to bed.

Hockey, of course!

The Glads won the first away game of the American Conference Championship Series in Toledo Friday night, to take the lead in the series 2-1 and ensuring they will have at least one more home game!!! It was a very ugly contest with some of the worst officiating ever, and even more obscene fans than those in Augusta (always considered to be the worst, until now). In the end however, it was Gwinnett who came out on top. Tonite, we play game 4, also in Toledo, where we hope to extend or current playoff record of winning every game we have played on the road. What an amazing feat. It is also Sunday, Mother's Day, so I need to get moving. More to come later.

A little bit of everything

I spent last week working in a new neighborhood. That was cool, the last one kinda sucked a little. This one is pretty sweet, but it is in south Fulton County, yuck. Anyway, thats going well. The Gladiators won game one of the American Conference Championship series against the Toledo Storm. It was a stressful game, but in the end we cam out on top. And finally, a big WELCOME HOME, to our friends the Groovers, who have been in Ethiopia for the past 2 weeks, training doctors and nurses in hopsice care, Aids stuff, and generally doing God's work in Africa. Much love and keep up the good work.

More Hockey!!

Gwinnett Gladiators won their first road game of this series to ensure at least one more home game this season. With the series tied at 1, Gwinnett faced a tough team in Florida and had to play 2 games in their arena. However, Gwinnett stepped up and and took the first game. With another win in Florida they will Be the division champs and have home games in the next series, the conference semi-finals. If Gwinnett loses in Florida monday they come back home for game 5 on Wednesday.

Hockey

Ugggg....Just when things were going so well we got killed by Florida, 7-3. It was horrible. But that's a bad place to start. The Gwinnett Gladiators crushed their division in the regular season leaving all the other teams well behind and clinching in February. They got a bye in the first round of playoffs and skipped directly to the semifinals where they soundly spanked South Carolina. Now we are in the division finals against Florida, with the best of 5 series tied at one, and heading to Florida for 2 games. Hopefully, we win steal them both down there, but if we split we come back here for game 5. Anyway, Its almost May and we are still talking hockey, that makes it a great season inmy book.

Hummm??? What to say?

The new job is going well, I guess. I haven't been fired. It is hard to go from being the boss to being the new guy, and lowest on the totem. I have learned a few things but for the most part I'm still just a grunt. Hopefully, I will learn what I need to be able to move up soon. That's all I really have to say right now. Here is a link to probably the saddest animated video I have ever seen. Check it out.

My New JOB!!

I started a new job this week. I am finished owning my own business, and have now gone to work for a builder. It is pretty cool so far, but I am really just starting to get into the mix. I made it through the whole no job, look for job, get and start job thing without really even thinking about smoking. I guess that is cool. I have saved over $900 and not smoked over 6000 cigarettes. Those are really insane numbers. I get a lot of exercise at work now. It seems like I am constantly walking. Maybe I will shed a few of these pounds I've been trying to get rid of. Who knows. Well, tomorrow is Easter, so I have to get ready for church and hockey playoffs. I will try to leave more infor about my job later.

Exercise Sucks

After gaining almost 30 LBS, since I quit smoking four months ago, I have decided it is time to start exercising. I started jogging yesterday, a short but hilly route, that nearly killed me. Just over halfway through, I felt like my lungs were going to explode and my legs were going to fall off. When we finally got back home, it was an hour before I could function again. Exersice sucks, but being a fat, out-of-shape, ex-smoker is worse. So I will give this exercise thing the effort I gave quitting, and maybe in four more months I will be a little skinnier, in better shape, and still and ex-smoker of course!

More Bush Bashing!!

Really, it's just to easy. Lets see a quote by our fearless leader: "People don't need to worry about security. This deal wouldn't go forward if we were concerned about the security for the United States of America." — on the deal to hand over U.S. port security to a company operated by the United Arab Emirates, Washington, D.C., Feb. 23, 2006 - maybe he got one right!!

Here a couple of funny jokes.
Q: What's George Bush's position on Roe v. Wade?

A: He really doesn't care how people get out of New Orleans.

Q. What's the difference between the Vietnam War and the Iraq War?

A. George W. Bush had a plan to get out of the Vietnam War.

Q: How many Bush Administration officials does it take to screw in a light bulb?

A: None. There is nothing wrong with the light bulb; it's conditions are improving every day. Any reports of its lack of incandescence are delusional spin from the liberal media. That light bulb has served honorably, and anything you say undermines the lighting effect. Why do you hate freedom?

3 months...3500 cigs, $500

That is just insane. I have not smoked for nearly 3 months. I have now saved $500 and not smoked 3500 cigarettes. Those numbers really just blow me away. I love not smoking. I still can't believe how gross it smells. Why didn't it smell that bas when I was smoking? It never bothered me then. By the way, check out the rest of my rants if you haven't before.

Insane war...insane spending...insane president

This is insanity...
Why in the world are we wasting this kind of money when the best result we can hope for is civil war when we leave. With this money we could have FULLY FUNDED worldwide aids programs for 23 YEARS...We could have FULLY FUNDED Global anti hunger efforts for 9 YEARS. How is this war reasonable in light of those stats...What is more important...What Would JESUS DO??? Lets ask our President!!

I think I'm done here....for now

I really dont have anything new to say...I am still not smoking, never see myself smoking again, and have beat that, and several other dead horses for a while. So For the immediate future, I will not be posting anything new...at least not of any consequence. Thanks for supporting me while I was quitting. Later.

NateQuit...Signing off, for now.

New Years and 8 weeks

WOOOHOOOO, New Years Eve has come and gone. No smoking and no hangover. Tomorrow will be eight weeks without a cigarette. I have successfully quit. There is definately no going back now. I dont really see how people start back after quitting for substantial periods of time. I wont be. Happy New Year, and good luck with those resolutions. Why dont you stop smoking this year?
