Put A Little Love in Your Step

Once again, I find myself in the Adam Carolla camp and finding myself becoming severely pissed and obsessed with something that probably doesn't matter. He refers to it as hyper vigilance and he is correct.

Have you been in an intersection or a parking lot somewhere and you have pedestrians sauntering across your path and not picking up the pace? Okay, it doesn’t seem to be much, but what the hell ever happened to the courtesy jog? You see a car waiting for you as you cross the street, you move a little faster and then they can move onto their merry way. I do this all the time and I get the thank you smiles from the drivers.

I was in the car with my mom and this happened and I asked her why people look directly at you and don't move faster. She told me because we're in the air conditioned car and they're in the heat, they can move how they want. My response was then if it's so damn hot, move your ass! Let’s bring back the courtesy jog people! Or just move a little faster.

You may be asking why the thoughts on non-entertainment issues and the answer is it's freaking hot and entertainment sucks. Also, I'm working on the Steig Larsson novels. Slowly, but surely, I will get through these. It's not as funny as his brother Gary's work, but still good so far.

Ode to My Father

I'm staring to get very irritated that You Tube is not letting embed the videos that I want to share. But in any case, this is a small clip from one of the classic movies from my childhood to honor my papa in honor of Father's Day (Click here). Which by the way is a fake holiday, but a celebration for my Dad is not a fake cause.
