Right now I’m using ice with dangerously high arsenic levels.  I live on the edge!  Well what else was I supposed to do with my non-carbonated, sugar-free, Strawberry Kiwi flavored beverage?  Drink it warm?  I don’t think so.

I also gonna say something else that proved I lived on the edge, but ummm, I forgot it.

Wanna see how my first test batch of beef jerky came out?


A lil over dry and crunchy, however still better than any store bought jerky.  It said to pat dry and I think I was a lil over zealous in that department.

I’m making it in the oven, using this lil kebob thing below and settin the temperature at 150.

As birthday tradition demands; whenever anyone asked how old I was I'd always say, "Guess!" 

Did they say 21?

Did they say 18?

NO!  16 and let me tell you they were completely flabbergasted when I announced I was 29.

See?  I told ya I could never buy a cigarette or lottery ticket (if I wanted to) without an ID.

Tomorrow I shall post the secret to my hotness.

I'll tell ya all about my birthday later when my brain is working, but the following I just had to post.


Yes that's good ol' Ruth Toots trying to surf my site anonymously; really sad.  Anyways I threw this in hidden because I find it much more humorous that she truly believes she's gettin away with something and is smarter than me.

So laugh amongst yourselves.

I regret the day I ever agreed to upgrade to this worthless piece of shit.  Thank God for Firefox, otherwise I’d take a hammer to the DSL and end it all.

Every time you highlight something this lil window pops up right in your damn way asking useless questions, and it won’t fuck off until you unhighlight your text.  That’s right: there’s no bloody backspacing or deleting your way out of this bastard.  I suppose all I need to do is update my options and uncheck the box that suggests you use this incessant popup, but it shouldn’t even be in existence in the first place.  I blame AOL.

It’s big into security; too damn much security.  Every once in awhile it warns me that my ID isn’t fully protected and someone could steal it.  What, some guy with an empty shopping cart is out to become Brooke Lee?  Christ if you’re really that hard up I’ll happily hand it over to ya.  I can take it as a deduction off my taxes anyway.

But you all suck.

I got an Ecard from Webshots and a 20% coupon, bitches!

I’m going to spend it with cats and various restaurants.  

Please send online gift certificates to narf@networksplus.net.  Or I'll accept cash my paypal account is narf@networksplus.net 

If ya wanna do something really cool you could sponsor a cat for me.  I like Miss Kitty and Thomas and Smudge; Thomas is an FIV+ kitty. Tortellini and Pesto; Tortellini is blind but gets around great with the help of of her sister Pesto.  And Cesar who is also an FIV+ kitty.

Or you could make this just another miserable birthday to add to the records.  The choice, is yours.

Sometimes people end up on my site from the weirdest searches such as:

where can i read gates, david. the mail lady?

agent owen Douglas

masturbating calories blood sugar

love ya too anonymous writer

grandmother takes nude photos of children

butt glued murrysville o'toole

Ok, the Grandmother thing was a lil disturbing but the following is just not right: This search led to my critique on Maury’s show about overweight adolescents wearing practically nothing.

As many of you are aware Amy Williams recognizable from a segment on MTV’s True Life episode: I am Obese is attempting to sue The Dag for harassment and also attempt to get a post pulled from Dagny’s own website because in Amy’s opinion, “it wasn’t nice.”  She also mentioned three links from my site in this letter.  One link included her many, many visitations to my site.  Another included some emails from her to me.  This in her mind is harassment.

This long drawn out self-inflicted drama has ceased to be annoying and has just become sad.  I made the following comment on Dag’s site but it was so fucking brilliant I felt it needed repeating:


Without further ado, the stalking continues:

A couple days ago I had a dream; one of those annoying lucid types.  The dream as follows:

DAD:  Do you think this surgery will work?

ME:  No

DAD:  Then why are you having it?

Everyone including the doctor and surgeon says I’m not a failure, but it’s purty hard not to hold a gun in your mouth when this person lost over 350 pounds.

You blow it; that’s your own misfortune.

You should hear the asinine and retarded stories Russ tells me.  I love Russ even when he believes a deranged stranger over me because he is a kind, caring and unbelievably patient man.  I saw many a different father throughout my childhood and always found myself saying, “I’m very grateful for Russ.”

But back to the tards:  

TARD:  Oh the Lord did this for me; oh the Lord did that for me; oh the Lord smited the hell outta my neighbor cuz I told him to.  The Lord talked to me in my soup bowl today; the Lord gave me a vision of a great catastrophe.

ME:  Sounds fun.  

TARD:  The Lord saved me from this and the Lord saved me from that.  The Lord thinks South Park is evil and that the ho-mo-sex-u-als will burn in hell.  

ME:  He sounds like a great guy, tell me more.  

TARD:  Oh but the Lord is all loving and kind; when you sin it makes him cry.  

ME:  Sounds like a pussy to me.  Does he have a ponytail?  

TARD:  And when we die we will get to live in the kingdom of heaven for ever and ever.  

ME:  How big is this heaven you’re talking about?  There’s how many of us on Earth plus how many have died since the dawn of man…  Does the Lord like the guy who invented Febreeze?

Tonight the Lord has one last shot from becoming the biggest douche in the universe.  You may say I was a lil belligerent with my demands to the Lawd, but what about that jerk in India who claims he was gonna throw himself in front of a train if the Lord didn’t show himself?  Sounds purty fucking manipulative if ya ask me.  That asshole when on to write a book about how gosh darn hard it was to be a Christian in India, and that Buddhist Monks beat him up and threw him down a well.  Because everyone knows Buddhist Monks are real badasses.

So by tomorrow we’ll find out if I was conversing with the Lord or myself; which really doesn’t bother me as I converse with myself quite often and the dead and sometimes Death himself.  Now he’s real.  I can prove it.   

A wonderful guy named Mark just had surgery a couple days ago.  Thanks to evil Amy Williams and the etiquette queen Ruth A. Lamb; noone is allowed to link to his website so’s they can wish him well.  So why dontcha run on over there and throw a few comments on his blog.

 Here was my reply:

Dear Mr. Douglas Owen;

I was totally psyched when I learned that I out of millions of people had been
chosen to win the Universal Lottery.  Unfortunately my giddiness ceased when I
learned this program was sponsored by soccer, and so regrettably I must decline
this offer as soccer is a totally gay sport.

I’m suddenly finding it more annoying than February or August, and if you ever lived in the Midwest you understand why August is so annoying; folks who live in tourist crowded cities also feel your pain.  February is just annoying with that whole, “I only have 28 days, but sometimes I have 29”, gig.  And I will never forgive it for Valentine’s Day.

First of all April is tax month.  That’s bad.  The 17th is Grandpa’s birthday; it’s poignant yet incessantly persistent at reminding you there will be no happy birthday calls or funny cards in the future.  I wish instead of being six feet under inna tiny lil town by the name of Vassar and in an even tinier cemetery that Grandpa’s ashes were with me.  But that’s purty selfish.  It would have been nice if we each received a lil box with a lil bit of Grandpa inside, but I’m more than sure that would appall the hell outta Grandma.

April 20th marks the first year anniversary of Allie’s death.  Yes, I’ve come a long way baby.  Helping Patches and gaining his trust healed me on more levels than I thought possible, and I know longer feel guilty if I accidentally call him Allie.  But damn, I still miss Al and it would seem these types of anniversaries inflate the emotions and void to the levels you experienced in the beginning.  Maybe it just has to do with the whole first anniversary thing.  I think once a year you should be given the privilege of just holding your loved one for a moment; just one lil brief squeeze or hug while understand they can never return.  When I become the undisputed ruler of the world I promise ya, I’m gonna make this happen.

So by the time the 24th rolls around it’s purty difficult to get all psyched up about your birthday.

*deadpan voice* Hurray

 If you’ll recall; last year I just ignored my birthday as there was just too little time and so bloody much to do.  I had planned on partying like it was 1999 this year, but even the thought of this makes me tired.  I think I’ll just have a mild Sephora shopping spree and leave it at that.

I'm afraid I've been spreading myself a lil bit too thin these days.  Dontcha hate it when you've got places to go, people to do and things to see?

After relating a truly weird ass dream to Mother:

Mother: You're stressed.

Me: I don't feel stressed.

Weird ass dream included the following:  Producing a children's Sunday School play with no script, ideas or rehearsals.  For some reason there was a nest of rats next to the stage.  The gal who was in charge of this auditorium assured me that the rats wouldn't be a problem, but then one of the lil buggers bit me.  Rat bite made me sick but fortunately a really cute janitor caught me when I began to stumble.  They moved the rats outside but for some reason it became a nest of rats and bats.  While waiting for another kids' play to end I noticed a mama kitty and her kitten outside being harassed by the rats and bats.  I ended up annoying people greatly by walking out in the middle of the play to bring the cats inside.  Then someone told me I couldn't keep the cats because someone was allergic.  Then the place turned into a department store and we had to move all the merchandise so's people would have a place to sit and watch the play.  But of course you couldn't move the jackets to a rack with spring clothing, nor could you set the 40% off purses on the same display with the Buy One Get One Free purse selection.

Then suddenly I'm inna hotel.  Mother and I have separate rooms; it's two in the morning and I wanna go see if she's awake also.  While my room number is 314 and hers is 317, for some reason I have to take the elevator to get to her room.  While out in the hallway I realize I forgot my key, then I realize I forgot my pants; which happened to be harboring the key in its pocket.  So I scurried back in the room as I forgot to even close the door; grabbed a towel to hide my bottom half nudeness and shut the door.  Not only was I once again without room key, the bloody towel would not wrap around my fat ass so I had to hold it either in front or back depending on where another person was coming from.  Then I noticed there were suddenly all these bathtubs in the lobby and all the faucets were turned on, so I had to run around and turn all those off.

Well after all that it dawned on me that perhaps I am a wee bit stressed and should probably have a lie down.

Could it be?

Is it truly...  The sun?

Seriously I think there's been a tear in the space-time continuum and California is now Oregon.  *shudder*
