Warning Nerd Alert

Thursday is coming!!! Do you all know what Thursday is? Warning Nerd Alert, World of Warcraft, Wrath of the Lich King! It is upon us and I personally can't wait. I was unlucky enough not to get into the beta so the itch is strong with this one. The days of actually leveling are upon me again. Some of you that have been following this blog from the beginning will remember one of my first blogs was about how I had quit playing WoW. You may call me out if you wish, but know that I do not care. World of Warcraft is far too good of a game to ever have truly given up. Shortly after posting that blog I took up the keyboard again and immediately fell back into the grind, don't judge. I know I have kept it from you, but I don't care, I'm not hurting anyone. So call off the intervention, I wont be there I'll be questing in Northrend.

Peace Out

It's the Great Pumpkin Jon

So this weekend I went home to see the family and we decided to carve some pumpkins. Now I have never carved a pumpkin before. How can this be you say? Well, when I was younger, my mother believed that Halloween was the embodiment of Satan and all that is evil in the world. And so we didn't celebrate All Hollows Eve in our house, that included trick or treating and yes carving pumpkins. She let up once I got a bit older but by then I was only interested in the candy and could give to shakes of witches broom about carving a stupid face into a gourd. I should have tried my hand at it earlier because this weekend I found that I am a pumpkin master. Seriously I'm going to start selling these things, Kira isn't that shabby at it either. Below you will find a picture of mine and Kira's pumpkins, mine is obviously Mario and her's is the ghosts. Oh and and my mother, although she is more relaxed than she use to be, still sat in the corner with a crucifix, praying as we carved our unholy demons into the flesh of a helpless gourd. Just kidding mom ;)

Peace Out

Blog Fodder

OK, so I haven't been posting as frequently as I'd like and this is due to a few reasons. I hate writing about my personal life, and I don't think any of you want to hear about it. I'd rather write a blog about topics that people are interested in. I hate blogs that update people just for the sake of updating people. "So this morning I totally woke up and took a shower and used new shampoo. It smells good but left my scalp itchy." No, I won't do that. So my conundrum is coming up with interesting things to fill your eager little brains with. Politics would be the obvious answer during this election season. I would be at no shortage of laughable material, I mean have you scene Biden's teeth, yikes. But then again video games are my forte so to speak, so shouldn't my blog focus on that. But I also watch a lot of movies so there is plenty of opportunity for review. So I've decided that my blog lacks focus and this also causes a problem in that I think it needs a focus but I can't deiced on one. So because of my indecisiveness I have not been posting like I should. Perhaps I should just let it all lose and post about everything or maybe make a new blog for each different subject. I don't know, but I'll figure it out soon. In the meantime know that I have not forsaken the blog, I just want to do right by it... Ahhh screw it I'm too lazy to make different blogs for each topic, you all are getting a mish mash of propaganda spewed by me. Enjoy!

Peace Out

We Don't Need No Motivation

This week another challenge was handed down from the supreme chancellor of office challenges. It was simple and straight forward, make a motivational poster. So that is what ensued, the creation of many irreverent, funny, motivational posters. there isn't much else I can say so ill let the posters speak for themselves. This is my Blog so my Posters will be featured first followed by our Supreme Chancellor's (Frank) and then last but not least Jeff's. Enjoy.

Peace out
Jon

ps. I'll try and get a real blog posted soon, eg. one that has more literary content :)

Batmansaywhat?

So here in the office of Skill Technology we were offered a challenge, a challenge of wit and humor. The rules were simple, take the above four stills from Batman and add your own dialog. The ensuing creativity that flowed from our eager minds was at time ridiculous but between the mundane and sometimes the all out wrong we came up with some comedic gems. Below are some of my own and a few of my favorites from my coworkers, enjoy. (The last four are from others in my office the first two from Frank and the last two are from Zack and Jeff respectively.

Cool babies use BUTT PASTE

Being a Dad is tiring very tiring, I am very tired, and find myself at a loss of time to post blogs, hence the lack of blogage since February. To my loyal fans, both of you, I am sorry. The up side of being very tired is that I get to play with the coolest little person in the world on a daily basis. Jace is just about 3 months old now and getting cooler every day. So watch out Brad Pit, Justin Timberlake, Walter Cronkite and all you other pseudo cool guys, there is a New Kid on the Block, and yes he is cooler than them as well. Did you here that they are touring again, whats up with that? How do they get off calling themselves kids still? Anyway... Since this is my first blog back from a long reprieve. I'm going to ease back into this and talk about the eventual decline of our economical monopoly and its degenerating effect on the worlds governmental statutes...

Nah, lets talk about BUTT PASTE. Thats right I said BUTT PASTE. BUTT PASTE is an actual product, believe it, we use it in my household to calm the screaming of a child whose hind quarters have turned a not so pleasant rose color. BUTT PASTE by far has the best name of any normal consumer product on the market. When Kira first brought it home from the baby shower I believed it to be a gag gift. However after using the BUTT PASTE I have found it to be an invaluable necessity for anyone with an infant. So there ya go my first post back I talk about BUTT PASTE. Now that Jace has started to sleep better at night I promise to try and be more consistent with my blog posting.

This blog sponsored in part by the letter J, and by...

And Just remember kids, I'm a lover not a fighter... but I'm also a fighter so don't get any ideas.

Peace Out
Jon

PS. for extra credit count how many times the word BUTT PASTE appears in this blog.

Say No To Hamsters

So I have shaved my head in protest of hamsters because lets face it they are hideous, mean little buggers with a hunger for human flesh. No not really, hamsters aren’t that bad, but I did find out tonight that my wife has no clue of how to cut hair. It started with me needing a hair cut but not having time to go and get it done. So I asked Kira to give me a trim with the clippers. Well she decided she could get fancy with it and tried layering the hair. Needless to say that didn't work and it was never straight, and it continued to get shorter and shorter as she tried to straighten it out. Eventually we had to just shave it all and now I'm left looking like a cue ball. One good thing though I now know how I’m going to look in 30 years when I lose all my hair.

On another note, the Gimme Golf Beta Sign up is under way. So If you haven’t yet, go to www.gimmegolf.com and sign up. And tell all your friends as well. Come on all the cool kids are doing it.

Peace Out
