Gone Again

RevMortis — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 00:19:05 +0000

Won’t be posting for a few days - going to Put In Bay. Local authorities have been alerted.

C’ya back here Friday - if your lucky.

The Rev

Goodbye George. . .and Thanks!

Sad news about the passing of George Carlin on Sunday.
His was a unique and pioneering voice in the world of comedy. . . one that won’t be replaced.

I remember seeing him do the ‘Seven Words You Can’t Say on TV’ live in Dayton, only by this time in his career it had grown to a literal dictionary of profanity. He couldn’t even read the whole thing in concert anymore - only select excerpts. My fav - “Tits. Sounds like a snack. I know, I know - it is!”.

The man has more quotes circulating the internet than probably the Pope and the last 7 presidents combined. And most make more sense.

Thanks for the laughs George. We’ll miss you!

Cinco De Mayo!!

On the second anniversary of my DUI, I celebrated by. . .you know, drinking. And don’t blame me for this pic. . .it was taken on the wife’s phone. . by some random fucks. Aw, don’t she look cute?

Still, it was indeed kinda fun to see my favorite bartender look over to me three times this evening and mouth “shoot me. . .SHOOT ME!” as more and more virgin margeritas were ordered. He’s kinda an alcoholic zealot. That’s why he’s my boy.

Anyhow, enjoy everyone. Tomorrow’s another day.

Dethklok - Need I Say More?

RevMortis — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 02:06:52 +0000

Ok, I’ll admit it. I’m late to the ball on this one. . .very, very late. I’ve avoided watching Metalocalypse on Cartoon Network for over a year now because I thought it was another ‘Beavis & Butthead’ type piece of crap. Well, there are similarities - it’s totally tasteless, humor in the lowest vein & it rocks. So yeah, I’m a fan now.

Good thing each episode is like 15 minutes long, so I can catch up quick. Check out this video below - too cool eh? I know, I know - go ahead and say it. “Welcome to 2006, Rev!”

The After-effects of Shoveling 20 Inches of Snow

RevMortis — Mon, 10 Mar 2008 00:48:41 +0000

Well, that snow storm I mentioned in my last post ended up being a full blown, take me back to Kansas blizzard that deposited 20 inches of snow into my driveway. Ok, it was in EVERBODY’s driveways, but I only had to clear mine.

Roughly 5 hours later (over 2 days), I have all blacktop & sidewalks cleared - but can’t stand up straight ’cause my back muscles are on fire. Time to renew that gym membership eh?

The good news is I should have no trouble getting to work tomorrow. Wait - that’s the GOOD news!?

I hate winter. . . .

Merry Christmas!

Yeah, that’s right. Christmas. Not ‘Happy Holidays’ or ‘Seasons Greetings’. No sissy-fied attempt at being PC. Just a simple ‘Merry Christmas’. In that spirit, check out the long, sexy Santa gloves from www.buycostumes.com. That’ll make you set out more than just milk and cookies, eh?

If you don’t celebrate Christmas, enjoy the peace and quiet. It’ll be back to same ole’ crazy again tomorrow.

Sorry to have been out of pocket so long - real life intervened for a bit. Big stuff happening around here in the new year. . .like a cool t-shirt design. We’ll see.

Until then, I wish you and yours the best over the holiday. Peace.

Happy Thanksgiving, Turkeys!

Now turn off your damn computer and go be with your family. If you don’t have any family to be with, go donate your time at a homeless shelter so you won’t have to be alone (and neither will they). Thanksgiving is meant to be shared. ENJOY!

Happy Halloween!

For some reason, this picture makes me feel all tingly. Why doesn’t SHE come trick or treating at my door?

You can order this costume, and tons more at Summitfashions.com

For God’s sake, at least browse the pictures!

X-files: I ordered it!

RevMortis — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 00:31:30 +0000

A few weeks ago I posted how I was going to use the knowledge from the book “The Secret” to gain a shiny new ‘X-files: The Ultimate Collection’ boxed set from Amazon.com. Of course, I don’t actually own “The Secret”, nor have I read it . . . or ever intend to, for that matter - but hey, I was gonna try anyhow! That’s why they make Product Reviews, right? Just read the highlights and off we go!

Well, friends - I’m here to tell you IT WORKED! I placed the order today. And you know what “The Secret” was? I’ll bet you do. And I’m gonna tell ya’. . .

I EARNED the damn money. No one gave me a dime (unless you count my wife saying “Ok, Ok - buy the thing already, ya’ geek”), I saved up the cash over a 2 month period of time. 2 months, you say? Well, hey I wanted it pretty bad but not enough to give up BEER. That’s just crazy talk.

Anyhow, the point is. . .unlike the “The Secret” which preaches you can sit on your ass and wish for things to come to you, I used positive visualization to get motivated, made some sacrifices, and bought the thing. With cash, thank you very much.

Now, would I have loved a fat million dollar check to come to me in the mail, and solve all of my financial worries? Sure, but I’m realistic enough to know that ain’t gonna happen. And really, I don’t want it to happen as much as I’d like to earn the money myself - but that’s just so I can be a pompous know-it-all. Or maybe so I can waste it all on lapdances and beer. (”Sorry kids, you can’t go to college. Dad blew all the money on strippers. BTW, meet your new stepmom Fontaine”)

Hey, a guy’s gotta have dreams, right?

Goodbye Spam! Hello new users!!

RevMortis — Tue, 25 Sep 2007 17:42:47 +0000

I wrote a blog article a few weeks ago announcing the removal of banner ads and the fact that my RSS feeds were now fixed. Apparently, somewhere in that brief monologue I accidently spelled out the ancient, forbidden rite invoking the SPAM demons, because I’ve had a bit of an infestation ever since then. Always attracted to that one article.

So, like any good Blog-God, I turned off open access to comments bla. . .bla. . ., you’ve probably heard all of this already. Well, the good news is we’re now infestation free. The bad news is we’re also pretty much discussion free. Not that I blame anyone, I don’t like to sign-up for anything unless it promises a free Xbox or something.

But fear not, loyal readers! Signing up is free, and easy (kind of like me. . .just kidding honey!) and I promise not to sell your email address to roving bands of cyber-gypsies who wish to use it for soliciting investments opportunities in Seychelles. And no, you don’t have to agree with anything I say - vocal critics are just as much fun as those that agree with me. Just stupider.

Anyhow, enough begging. I just wanted to set the record straight as my last post seemed a bit over-the-top. Ok, not as over-the-top as I’d wish, but it did force me to use some. . . gasp. . . foul language.

And I don’t usually cuss. . . goddammit.
