first united bank of asskickery

at the united prairie bank on highway 22 in mankato, mn they fly four flags.

the american flag, the minnesota state flag, and a POW/MIA flag all make sense. those flags belong in front of a bank.

however, the fourth flag doesn't make any sense at all.

can you spot it?

































did you see it?


that, my friends, is a harley davidson flag. OH HELL YEAH!!! YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW!!















why in the hell is there a harley davidson flag flying in front of the bank?

does that make sense to anyone?

is the president of the bank just that kick ass?

stamps

i needed stamps the other day so i had to go all the way to the freaking post office.............

see, that is a joke.......i live on top of the post office in mapleton, mn. anyway.......

i usually just buy the forever stamps because i don't keep up with how much stamps are and when the prices will go up again. however, i saw a specialty stamp that i had to have. it is the sunday funnies collection and part of them are calvin and hobbes stamps!






i love calvin and hobbes! i am going to save these stamps for something really, really important........

the internet is for porn

we all know that the internet is for porn. in fact, the top 3 reasons that people use the internet are: music, travel and porn.

i am not telling you anything new. and, i am sure that you know that there are lots of different kinds of porn out there. however, there is a type of porn that is new to me.

youtube porn.

it isn't real porn. it doesn't show sex or nudity or anything like that, but it is kinda like porn.

youtube porn is mainly "booty shakin". girls in shorts or panties shaking their asses.

like this:

or like this:

however, some of it is rather creepy. like this one:

the real question is, what would be worse.........getting caught watching real, hardcore porn or getting caught knocking one out to youtube?

football time

when the football team at my old high school comes out on to the field, they do it to an intro that i make.

i only played football my freshman and sophomore years of high school and i wasn't very good. in fact, i only played two (2) plays of varsity football. i was pretty much a tackling dummy at practice.

however, when i make the intro for the football team, i get fired up. something about it takes me back to putting on those pads and running out on the field on a friday night.

here is what one of them sounds like: Download

i know it isn't something spectacular, but it always gets me pumped up.......

fun at the freeborn county fair

my wife and i went down to albert lea, mn for the freeborn county fair. they had some really good shows coming to the grandstands and the shows weren't any extra. we were only charged the $9 admission to the fair and the shows were included. we went friday night to see the legendary george jones.







george is 78 years old and moves around and talks like a 78 year old man. he has trouble keeping up with his faster songs and he really can't belt them out anymore, but he can still sing. it was great to see a legend. and for 9 bucks, you can't beat it.

it was packed on friday. we got to the fair at about 6pm and there was a huge line to get into the grandstands. blue hair as far as the eye could see. i think my wife and i might have been the youngest people there that weren't accompanying an old person. it was a great show though.

the next night, saturday, we went back to see hinder. we had our good friends' 17 year old daughter and her boyfriend with us.........i don't know why our friends think i am a positive role model, but whatever.............

9 bucks to see hinder is a great price. they are fun and put on a good show.

when we got there, we noticed that the crowd was about the same size as it was for george and that was expected. what was not expected was the number of old people there. there were tons of old people in the grandstands for hinder.






some were wearing their george jones shirt that they had bought the night before.

the show was loud and relatively heavy and these old people were sitting there like champs. then, slowly, couple by couple the old people started to leave. it was rather funny to watch as they decided that they had enough of the loud music and made their way down the stairs.

i imagine that the freeborn county fair board will get lots of complaints from these people. the only explanation that i can come up with is that the entire week the fair had country acts that the old people enjoyed so when they saw hinder, even though they didn't recognize the name, they assumed that they would enjoy the show.

recommended pages

if you are one of the 12 people who don't have a facebook page, you might not understand this......


facebook will recommend pages and friends on your profile. it uses data from your page and friends pages to systematically determine what you might be interested in.

here are a few of facebook's recommendations on my personal page.






facebook recommended that i 'like' the page of the radio station that fired me










here, facebook assumes that because i have black friends, that i must also be black...........and proud








finally though, facebook recommends something worth a damn:

library commercial

there is a commercial running on the local tv station for the blue earth county library.

it says that they have "the latest in fiction and non-fiction".

really??? are there people out there that don't understand the concept of a library? what the hell is happening??


i don't understand who this commercial is targeting or why these people have never heard of a library
