Beat the Crap Out of Me, Just Don't Take Anything

Porkchop was telling me about a story he'd read about on his Motorcycle Forum. Apparently there was a big motorcycle event over on PEI this weekend and a guy from NB who is a medic, volunteered to come over and work at the event. He loaded up his medic's bag on the motorcycle and off he went. He stopped somewhere for gas and as he went in to pay for it, some scumbag made off with his very expensive medic bag. He lost his bag and the event lost their medic because some little pissant decided to steal his equipment.

This shit burns my ass - I've said it once, I'll say it a hundred times, "there's nothing worse than a thief." I would much rather you come up to me and beat the living tar out of me than steal something from me. There's just something so sneaky and slimy about stealing; I can't STAND a thief, they are scum. At least everything is out in the open with a good old fashioned shit-kicking.

I think this is one of those RARE instances when I agree with crazy-assed bastards who have punishments like chopping off digits for stealing. Stealing because you're starving is a different story mind you, but stealing because you're a little punk or you need your next fix? - NO MERCY - someone get a butcher's knife and an apron, little Joe's about to lose his pinkie. I bet after little Joe loses "that little piggy", little Joe would be less likely to be thievin' again.

What do YOU think?

Whatchootalkingabout, Willis?

Did you ever get to that point where you've just read the same line five times and everything is blurred and your head is bobbing and snapping? Well, that was me this afternoon. I decided that I needed a break from the books before Dolly came home on the bus. That little break lasted an hour because TBS was showing re-runs of Diff'rent Strokes. Boy, did that bring back memories. I remember watching that show when I was about Dolly's age and I just loved it; Arnold cracked me up. They played 2 or 3 episodes in a row today...next thing you know, they'll start playing the spinoff, which I also loved (even before Clooney arrived):

Your Score: Katharine Hepburn

You are the fabulously quirky and independent woman of character. You go your own way, follow your own drummer, take your own lead. You stand head and shoulders next to your partner, but you are perfectly willing and able to stand alone. Others might be more classically beautiful or conventionally woman-like, but you possess a more fundamental common sense and off-kilter charm, making interesting men fall at your feet. You can pick them up or leave them there as you see fit. You share the screen with the likes of Spencer Tracy and Cary Grant, thinking men who like strong women.

Good Friday Morning

Things are looking up; I've finished a major paper and a huge Stats assignment. I now just have to study for two exams and finish a novel - by the end of the weekend. I can do this, I can do this...

Not Dead...Stay Tuned

Just incredibly busy with school work at the moment - right after this ten page paper and two finals next Thursday, I should be back to some semblance of regularity here at the ol' bloggy.

Also, sorry for my neglect of your blogs - hope I'm not missing any huge news.
