Hilarious Museum...

October 13, 2010.....

I went to get a Smog Test today for my vehicle. As I was exiting my vehicle I noticed the mattress discount warehouse directly next to me. It caught my attention because of the multiple cardboard cut outs of Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, and I swore I saw Dean Martin. So I looked closely, it was a mattress discount warehouse/a museum dedicated to the assassination of JFK. So I dropped off my car and walked across the way to see if I could go inside and see what in Sam Hill was this all about. This older, white male was outside of the building with a cart and an army bag ruffling through his things. He speaks to me, "I got a museum inside dedicated to the assassination of JFK, and I got Marilyn Monroe in there, Michael Jackson, Deano, Tony Curtis, Elvis, and Oswald's casket. Go ahead and go inside."

I am now so curious it bothers me that I didn't run inside. What kind of wacko puts a mini museum inside of a mattress warehouse? Well the warehouse was filled with mattresses, there was hardly any leg room. And voila, check out the pictures. I wanted to giggle, but I didn't. He did have old newspaper clippings when JFK was killed and some clippings about Oswald but other than that it was card board cut out city with blown up clippings, real clippings, a fake gun that he claims was the real gun that killed JFK and a fake coffin with Oswald's picture all over it, along with his paperwork for his business. It was a cluster fest and it was creepy. His restroom was aligned with Dean Martin and Michael Jackson. Don't know if I want Michael Jackson looking at me while using the restroom.

While I was taking pictures the man approaches me with a bag full of fake drivers licenses with Elvis, Marilyn, and Michael Jackson's information on it. "$1.00 each, we ordered 35,000 of Michael Jackson's and took them to his arraignment but we were escorted away by the police. Don't know what else to do with them? So, you want 20 for $20.00?" I shook my head no but I did buy Marilyn and Elvis for a dollar each, they were good looking pictures. As I am exiting, I was looking at his newspaper clipping of the JFK assassination and I touched the outside of the clear cover. "Ma'am, that's an artifact, please don't." I replied, "No, this is not an artifact." The man then told me, "Yes it is an artifact." I said I was sorry and exited before he had the chance to shank me. Enjoy the pictures. CREEPY! The Smog Testing people told me that he is crazy and you know, I believe him.

Ever wonder if Facebook existed YEARS ago? LOL!

My friend Danielle turned me onto this and I laugh every time I read it. Good times... enjoy!

The Broken Yolk, San Marcos, California

So, my family and I went to this restaurant that we saw on the Travel Challenge... Man vs. Food. This place was pretty packed for being so late in the afternoon and closing at 3 p.m. We wanted to see what the hype was about. According to Adam Richmond from the Travel Chanel, he states that the Iron Man/Woman Challenge Omelet was delicious and worth it.

Well, we went. My son got the Stroganoff Omelet with a blueberry muffin. My daughter ordered the California Omelet with sourdough toast. My lovie ordered the Southwest Omelet with wheat toast and a blueberry muffin. And what the heck did I order? Something that didn't make ANY sense! Fish tacos... LOL! What was I thinking?! Everyone ordered an omelet that was so delicious, trust me I tried all of them before they even had a chance. They were so GOOD! It is not over rated, this place is the best breakfast place I have been to in awhile. However, we did not try the Ironman Challenge Omelet, we should have, it would have been cheaper and filled all of us up. That particular omelet was 12 eggs filled with all kinds of things, topped with chili hash browns and biscuits.

SO,.... try the Broken Yolk Cafe -- if you're in the San Diego area. They are all over the place. YUM!

Labor Day Weekend

What is the significance of Labor Day?

Per the unreliable source of Wikipedia... The first Labor Day in the United States was celebrated on September 5, 1882 in New York City. It became a federal holiday in 1894, when, following the deaths of a number of workers at the hands of the U.S. military and U.S. Marshals during the Pullman Strike, President Grover Cleveland put reconciliation with the labor movement as a top political priority. Fearing further conflict, legislation making Labor Day a national holiday was rushed through Congress unanimously and signed into law a mere six days after the end of the strike. The September date was chosen as Cleveland was concerned that aligning an American labor holiday with existing international May Day celebrations would stir up negative emotions linked to the Haymarket Affair. All 50 U.S. states have made Labor Day a state holiday.

With all that said I wonder why we don't celebrate occasions such as National Lamp Day? Is there such a day in which someone invented the halogen lamp to shed light into rooms for people to see? I think it makes more sense to have a national holiday for something that is practical and useful. Do not get me started on Christopher Columbus Day, I mean, really? Celebrate a murderous explorer who in FACT was not the first person to have found the America's. In fact, this guy helped spread murder, disease, plague, and terror to the America's. WAY TO GO! So, why celebrate Labor Day? I mean, it's another day to have off - PAID, but why not something else? There are thousands of things to REALLY celebrate. For example, I would celebrate the first day a computer was invented. I have no idea when that was, but heck, that's a national holiday if I ever heard of one. Or may be have a national holiday of when the first president of the United States was inaugurated? Sounds like a plan to me! Or every year let's celebrate the birthday of OUR CURRENT president! That's something to think about. Labor Day... I don't know... I understand Memorial Day and Christmas but Labor Day. I still am at a quandary as to why this is such a huge day. And by the by, Thanksgiving.... REALLY, the false pretenses and stories of this day is hilarious. The pilgrims and the Indians shared a dinner on this day, we should give thanks. I give thanks for my life and family, but this could easily be deemed something else, like FAMILY DAY or APPRECIATION DAY. And quit telling that ridiculous story of the Indians and the pilgrims.

Ranting over and out!

Talking Out of Your A$$.....

When people talk out of their asses do you really think any thought process goes behind it?

I enjoy saying things that are nonsensical. Fragmented. Unrelated to anything that the conversation is entailing.

Does it smell when you talk out of your ass? Metaphorically it should not, but quite literally it should. Or vice verse… LOL

So, I ask of you all, do you talk out of your ass? And if so, I want to hear the things that have came out of such region. Here is an example:

Conversationalists: “Yeah, that really is a bummer about BP and that oil spill. Now gas prices are going to escalate. I can’t afford to spend more money on gasoline - I may have to walk to work or take the bus.”

RF (me): “Hey does anyone know if potatoes with chili and sour cream are any good?”

Room Atmosphere: **Crickets**

Has this happened to you? I mean, there are other forms of a$$ talking but let's not get into all that.

So, I guess think before you speak. Or at least try.
