Osama bin Laden Dead After Eating E.coli Tainted Spinach

Osama.jpegU.S. military sources report that Osama Bin Laden has been killed. Bin Laden apparently died after eating E.coli tainted spinach that had been given to him as part of a cunning assassination plot spearheaded by the CIA. While the CIA won’t publicly take credit for Bin Laden’s death there has apparently been much celebration in Langley. The secret plan to kill Bin Laden with tainted spinach was hatched by a midlevel CIA operative two weeks ago as the first cases of E.coli poisoning from tainted spinach became public. The CIA operative saw an opportunity as he knew Osama Bin Laden was a big fan of spinach salads and fresh spinach is hard to get in the tribal areas of Pakistan along the border of Afghanistan. The plan was simple, air drop spinach into the area and wait for success.

BON This and That

  • For some reason I’m having formatting issues and I can fix the problem.  In case you haven’t noticed, the sidebar is empty and is placed at the bottom of the page.  Sorry for the inconvenience.
  • I’m going to adopt a practice I learned from some fellow bloggers and no longer post my own comments.  Y’all can post as many comments as you want, but I think I’m just going to keep my thoughts to myself.  If I feel the need to answer a question or respond to a post, I’ll email you using the email address you provided when making a comment.  So if you want to hear from me, give me a valid email address.
  • What was that ‘test’ posting all about last week?  Well, I just learned how to blog using my cell phone.  Speaking of which, I’m going to try a BON experiement this weekend.

    One of my buddies is nice enough to take me and some friends to Vegas this weekend.  I’m extremely thankful for his generosity.  He says I got too much going on right now, and I need to get away.  I’m also thankful wifeGeeding is letting me go with no questions asked.  Why am I telling you this?

    I plan on taking pictures in Vegas with the camera in my phone and making random posts this weekend.  Should be fun.  Back in Nov 2004 I kept a running diary of the Vegas trip on my old blog.  I’m not sure if I’m going to do that again, but who knows.

    Anyone have Vegas suggestions?

It’s that time of year again

I escorted wifeGeeding into Michael’s over the weekend, and this is what I saw:

I’m not sure if this is only a Texas thing or not, but for those of you that don’t know what’s in this picture, its called a homecoming mum.

When highschools have their homecoming football game, for some reason boyfriends or parents buy girls mums to wear to school the day and night of homecoming.  I always hated the existence of these things for several reasons.  Not only are they big and ugly, and cost a lot of cash, but most of them have small cowbells on them.  That’s right, cowbells, and that is all you would hear all friggin’ day at school.  It still gives me a headache.

How much do they cost?  I’m not really sure since I never bought one, but I think the average price is around $75 to $100.  But as you can see in the picture posted below, you can even pay $299 for one.
