Winter's Back?

Check out my local weather forecast . . . and don't forget about the winter storm watch. This is seven shades of bullshit if you ask me . . . but you didn't did you. But come on feel my pain, I just pulled my Camaro out of storage and I've got my bike sitting there begging to be ridden. Oh well it can't last . . . can it?

But enough of the weather, how about something that might be of interest to business travellers? You'd best hope that your company doesn't follow the Deutsche Bank's suit as according to this article (as an added bonus it taught me a new phrase) they've told their executives that they can't claim trips to whore houses and hotel room porno on company expense accounts. All I can say is that I hope that my boss doesn't get any ideas from that article.

It seems that I've got a few more weddings on the horizon, and here I thought I was done with that. I guess I must've made some new friends or something? No matter, I'm just concerned that the receptions just won't be the same now that I've learned none other than Mr. Bob Kames, the creator of the Chicken Dance, has died. He was 82 and I have to say he must've had a good life, or at least made an important and long lasting impact on the world, even if it does usually end up with someone's drunk aunt ending up on her ass with dress all up around her face.

Ahhh good times.

Now this is pretty cool, it's a video that someone cobbled together of Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire" with all of the references in the song illustrated. I'm no fan of the Piano Man, but I've always liked this song, and if you're anything like me you love being able to identify pop culture references in anything, so maybe you'll learn a thing or two watching that vid.

I've got time for one last bit, so I'd like you to meet the Superhero of Singapore, none other than Mr. Batman Bin Suparman. And no I didn't meet him when I was there.

Well that's all we have time for today, so we'll see you next time and help control the unwanted pet population, have your pet spayed or neutered.
