I just now ate, in its entirety, an Arbys Bacon Beef 'n Cheddar sandwich. I emptied a packet of BBQ sauce and a packet of Horsey sauce onto the gooey cheese inside. I am having second thoughts about declining the take-home angioplasty kit as I am now phlegmy and coughing like the Playboy editors after reading the "I'm ready to show my tits for money now that my career is washed up. Have you seen Dana Plato around?" letter from Britney Spears. I expect a massive coronary within the hour. But damn, that thing was good. You're just one step away, Britney....

I get a lot of emails from my grandfather that deal with forwarded stories, most are the "Soup for the Soul" stuff and things I have to reply back to him that didn't really happen or that is an urban legend etc. But today I got something from him that was really cool, and unfortunately, you will never see on television.

I've resorted to pulling out the electronics resumes, although I swore I would never pursue it since I didn't particularly enjoy it while I was in the Navy. But, when you are squeezing the toothpaste tube with vice grips, digging for loose change for gas money, and shopping at the 99 cent store out of necessity then you gotta do what you gotta do. I don't know how you damn civilians do it. It is amazing how much I relied and took for granted my military paycheck, no matter how meager it was at times, to arrive on the 1st and 15th of every month. Ahh, the good old days! I can honestly say that I have never prayed harder and longer in my life and to give credit where it's due- things...
