Plane Crossing

I'm almost at a loss for words, here . . . (almost, that is.)

1.  Is that really the best place for a runway?

2.  Is that really the best place for a road?

3.  My favorite part is the cross statue (near the bottom of the picture).  That way you remember to pray before you drive across a freaking runway, lol!  

I don't care how careful or secure that crossing is, it's crazy.  Too many "what ifs" . . .

Short Ride

1.  This path is clearly only for levitating cyclists.

2.  It's kind of difficult to see, but the bicycle path ends just on the other side of that alley, lol.  

Beat the Heat

Hockey season started back up last night with our first practice of the fall season.  And THANK GOODNESS!!!  I've got to beat this heat somehow:

I mean, it's not just hot outside, it's WTF-Hot outside.  We're on like our 60th some odd day of over 100 degree weather this summer . . .  Blah!

That's where the hockey comes in:

Notice in that first picture which way I'm going and which way the other guy is going?  Wonder how that ended?  Let's just say I woke up this morning still feeling like a brick wall hit me.  Ha!

East

This is one of the signs around our apartment complex:

I know for a fact that those streets go in opposite directions.  I really want to know how they can both be "E" for "East" . . .  Maybe our complex is like the North Pole, where every direction from there is South.  Except, you know, we're like the West Pole.  :)

Recommendation

I recently bought the Fox and the Hound combo release from Disney's coveted vault.  It's cute.  It's pretty much exactly what I remember from watching it when I was a little kid.  The new release also includes the under-the-radar sequel, aptly named, The Fox and the Hound 2.  It actually wasn't as bad as some Disney shouldn't-haves.  The voice talent was good.

The singing was decent, too.  So I hopped over to IMDb to see who did all of the singing.  I knew Reba McEntire sang all of her own songs, but I wasn't sure if Patrick Swayze did.  Turns out he didn't.  But that's beside the point.  What I found funny in this endeavor was IMDb's recommendations for other movies I might be interested in:

Let's see:
-The original Fox and the Hound
-3 other sub-par sequels
-and . . . Venom?

Someone please connect the dots here.  What in the world do the 13 evil souls of Mr. Jangles have to do with cute, furry, talking animals and little red riding hood?  I think IMDb needs to rethink this recommendation algorithm a little.  :)

No Trash

That's fine, but where do I take my waste . . . 

( . . . and my debris . . . and my junk, and my rubbish . . .)

Butter Special

No wonder it's on sale, lol!

Fragile Like Eggs

Broken Cookies = Broken Dreams.   I couldn't have said it better myself.

I kept this lid of a box of biscotti.  If you've been reading for long, you know I like a good bit of corporate humor.  I appreciate it when suppliers have a sense of humor (especially dry humor.)  :)

Troubled

I was looking for a card the other day and saw this one mixed in them:

Nothing says you're sorry like someone else's words . . .

Come on, guys (because I'm assuming mostly men are buying these cards) stop screwing up in the first place.  Being in a relationship isn't that hard.  (And no, I wasn't looking for a card like this when I saw it.)

"Meat"balls

I understand the desire to be vegetarian.  I do.  It's generally healthy.  It saves our furry farm friends from the slaughter (supposedly).  And, hey, someone's got to be on that end of the American-Obesity-Bell-Curve.

But I'm thoroughly confused by things like this, which I saw at the grocery store earlier today:

What is America's obsession with meat?  Even vegetarians apparently seek meat-like products (otherwise, companies wouldn't be making them).  Why not just call them "Veggie Balls"?  Or Meatball substitutes?  Oh, I know . . . "Vegeta-balls"!  Because "Meatless" meatballs sounds silly...

Have you seen any odd products at the store lately?

Elderly

I wonder if elderly people think it's funny too . . .
