SEPTEMBER is CHICKocide month!
Holy Chickpeas, Batman! September is National Chicken Month! Show your clucking pride in this staple American food by devouring one of the juicy little bastards EACH AND EVERY DAY!

THOR’S DAY RANT: It’s Effin BAD Science!
There’s this new show on the G4 channel, and I’m going to have to go all Phil Plait on it’s ass for a moment. The show is called “It’s Effin Science” and it’s been advertised very widely on my satellite service provider, Dish Network. They try and give it a Mythbusters look, with “cool”, “hip” [...]
Representation without Taxation?
Ay, carumba. What was that Court thinking? Let me begin by saying, this isn’t a brown-white thing. I don’t hate Mexicans. Unless they’re being stupid. Or not paying their taxes. Or committing crimes. Why, just this morning, I say a van broke down in the middle of the street. The young man driving it was [...]
THOR’S DAY RANT: Stolen Valor, or Infringed Speech?
Let me preface this rant by declaring I am a veteran of the USAF (1990-1994) but that I have no combat awards, medals, etc other than the Nat’l Defense Medal given just for being on Active Duty during a conflict. So I was watching Fox News this morning and they have this schmuck on TV [...]
Sorry, but I AM better than you…
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,”-Declaration of Independance, Contental Congress, July 4, 1776 ” The legs of the lame are not equal: so is a parable in the mouth of fools.” -Proverbs 26:7 So which is it? Are we all equals, or aren’t we? On the one hand, [...]
THOR’S DAY RANT: Wait 4 Independance Day, you jerks!
All you idiots out there with fireworks, itching to make some noise- wait until Saturday. Some of us have work tomorrow morning. I mean, cmon! It’s Thursday night, I’m sound asleep by 10:30 PM, and BOOM! I get woke up by frickin’ cannon fire next door. What the hell?! First off, things like roman candles [...]
Walking Your Dog- Good ownership, or Animal Cruelty?
I recently got into an argument over the issue of walking my dog. I have a “border-aussie”, a Border collie-australian shepherd mix we bought from a shelter. I don’t use the term “rescue” because I wasn’t out to save any dog, I was saving money by getting an unwanted dog, instead of one with “papers”. [...]
TANKS A LOT, DAD
This Father’s Day, I received a wonderful gift from my wife and kids. A radio controlled tank. This gift was no doubt prompted by one of my childhood tales of how awful my father was. Maybe I’ve told the story too much, but I think it perfectly illustrates how a father should not behave. One [...]
Father’s Day is for Fathers!
It’s that time of year again, when Dad’s get a special holiday all their own. I used to complain that Father’s Day was a joke compared to Mother’s Day- hidden on the back pages of newspapers, instead of plastered all over every piece of media known to man. But we dads have progressed a little. [...]
THOR’S DAY RANT: Land of the Free?
Freedom is what they say so many soldiers died for. Freedom, or Liberty, is what the Founding Fathers wanted so desperately to obtain from England. But is this really a free country? I read a very disturbing article today that sounded like something right out of a communist nation: it’s illegal to videorecord police officers [...]
