Dumali

My sons first birthday is at the end of next month, and I dont know what to get him. I want to get him soemthing he will use regularly, and have fun with playing while also developing his skills.

I am thinking about one of those plush rocking horses, fun, fuzzy, and if he hit his head he wouldn’t be too hurt.  Not sure what he wants. I suppose he isnt too aware of what he wants either, I mean what do you get soemone who is only 12 months and drools?

He has a walker chair. He has enough stuffed animals.

OH! What about on of those baby books that have texturized things like fuzzy, scratchy, and so on, this would inspire his sense of touch and if the have ones that make sounds as well, that would be great. I still think he needs a big gift.

He has alot of movies, or I would think some Pixar films would be nice. If I could find a comfort toy he could take to the sitter’s that would be good.

Well thats my thought for the moment, I will post once I decide on what I will get him.

The damn Japanese invented karaoke as a way to make us suffer because we dropped a atomic bomb on them

But I somehow think  they got the softer deal.

Karaoke sucks, and as I write this my brother and 5 of his friends are squealing along to Madonna. I want to kill them all. Its horrid, they sound like a half frozen cat being cut with a table saw.

Look, some people can sing (not you Ozzie) and most cant, its why most of you dont have a recording contract and instead go to your crummy jobs everyday. Dont think becasue you somehow managaed to pull together enough money for the crappy electronics to make seom digital noise you can grind your crusty voice along, that somehow you are some sort of rockstar.

So do me a favor, save the planet by letting the ones that can sing remain doing so and just politely nod your head to the beat when a good song comes on the radio, but please stop attempting to sing.

As a kid I loved Legos, I wish that simple toys were still cool. Now its all high end electronics and cell phones. Internet and video games.

But I would make trucks and aircraft and little buildings.

Then I would spend time driving my little creations. If there was an accident, i could alter the vehicle to reflect the damage.

Simpler times, I think better ones too. Certainly cheaper.

On a related topic, int he Minnesota Mall of America they have lego creations on display, when I was last there I remember this huge White House made of legos.

I am still laughing at the Aussie comedians who dressed one guy up as Osama Bin Laden and drove a 3 car motorcade past multiple checkpoints without being stopped and right into an APEC compound. I mean , wheres the security??

Amusing, and obviously the police and security forces are greatly embarrassed. They werent even stopped until they got within a few meters of the building that Bush himself was in.

They were frisked and the fake beard was taken away. Two of the cast and several of the support crew were detained. The local police chief was furious and did not find the joke funny.

Ever wonder why God hung out with Adam and Eve, like walked around chatting with them, and I cant even get an email?

I am pretty ticked off about the whole thing. Its like, I cant get any respect because I took the time to put clothes on? And what gets me more is like you can kick it and chat with God and then like blow off his ideas. God says Yeah don’t eat from that tree, cause if you do I will get all pissy and kick you out my cool place with the trees.

I wonder if they made jokes when he wasn’t around…

I mean, why make a tree that you don’t want touched?! God whispers to Jesus, “LOL Watch me screw with these two!” Why make the tree you don’t want them to have?! Why be all selfish like that?!

Theres just too many problems with that story to be acceptable.

How do you got a God of love who plays serious practical jokes on people like that?
