I Want Wednesdays...

When I first started these Wednesday installments, they were called “Make a Wish Wednesdays”, but wishes are just a politically correct way of saying “I want”, so I’ve decided to be truthful to myself, cut through the niceness and say what I really mean – I want this stuff:

Sirius Satellite Radio – I would love to have Sirius Satellite Radio installed in my car. Common FM Radio just doesn’t cut it any more and because my commute is so long, I tend to hear the same songs each way, every day and I’m afraid that if I hear Jordin Sparks or Kelly Clarkson again, I will intentionally run my car off the road, just for the distraction.

Tailgator Gas-Powered Blender – How cool would this be? I would be the envy of all of my male friends with this little gadget.

The product description from the website states: “Whip up drinks wherever you are with this portable gas-powered blender. The powerful 24cc two-stroke 2-1/4 hp engine generates enough torque to perfectly blend a pitcher of drinks (without lumps) in just 15 seconds. A simple pull of the cord is all it takes to fire up the motor. The rpm's are infinitely adjustable, allowing you to enjoy just the right blend. The 48-oz. lightweight plastic pitcher detaches for easy pouring and clean-up. All controls (primer, choke and kill switch) are front-mounted for easy access.”

I don’t know what half the stuff actually means, but 15 seconds to mix a drink! Need I say more?

Tailgator Blender Carry Case – Don’t forget, a woman needs to accessorize and besides I need something to carry my blender around town, without it looking obvious or do you think the bag of ice might be what gives me away?

I know what you mean about the radio. Thats why I've started listening to so much talk radio. But that gets pretty redundant too!!

Awesome Tailgator!! Thats so neat!! I wonder if the drinks smell a little like gas though.

I wanted Sirius radio for a long time, but since I was working from home @ the time I just couldn't justify getting it, except for the detachable unit that I could take into my house and listen to my Detroit Tiger games...well, I never got it and now I can't afford it. Boo!!!

Go buy it!!

I got satelite radio when I bought my car last year, FOR a whole year. It was grand...
...but then I thought, why should I pay for radio. And it would cost me about $200+ for the year...so I didn't continue the service.

They came back and kept offering a month free, then 2, then 3, then 4. I finally signed back up when they offered me another year free.

Life is grand again.
Until I found out about that blender.

Thanks.

I Was Feeling Pretty Good Until...

I had my annual “physical” yesterday.   I’ve been attending the same clinic for well over 20 years and am overall happy with the service I receive.  The clinic is part of a state-of-the-art teaching hospital, so with that I typically have relatively quick access to a network of specialists should the need arise.  With that being said, I’m usually treated by residents and have rarely had the same resident in all my 20 years. I felt pretty good going into the appointment and then not so much by the time I left.   Why do you ask? Well, first of all I was treated by Miss Doogie Howser.   I swear she wasn’t even legal drinking age.  That in itself made me feel old, because when I first started going to that clinic – I WAS her age. As she was running down the standard list of questions (i.e. do you smoke, how much do you drink, is there any history of heart problems in your family), she asked me “How is your sex life?  Any concerns?

Snot Bubbles and Wedgies...

Scuba diving can be the most relaxing, peaceful experience of your life – no cell phones, no boss and no noise, except for your own bubbles; however it can be a sport that is not for the faint of heart – rough waters, sharks and crushing depths. If you are self-conscious, shy or weak of stomach, scuba diving may not be for you. Let me explain… Warning: The following may be overly descriptive. Read on at your own risk… The scuba wetsuit. There is nothing glamorous about squeezing a size 8, 10, 12 body into a size 8 neoprene wetsuit, while sweating under the Caribbean sun. It’s sort of like trying to put a sock on while your foot is still wet. Scuba diving professionals may tell you, that neoprene doesn’t shrink, but those people are liars. What they are really trying to do is make you feel good about yourself – selfish bastards. I am living proof that my wetsuit has shrunk on numerous occasions – usually over the winter months. Coincidence? I think not. The wedgie. This un
