Passing notions & gas


So Apple has voided warranties on their Macs due to "health risks of second hand smoke"
It appears the computer was contaminated with cigarette smoke which Apple considers a bio-hazard. Forget that the warranty makes no specific mention of cigarette smoke voiding said warranty.
Taking it a bit further, I say that the warranties should also be voided due to exposure to methane gas. Methane gas is a greenhouse gas which contributes to the warming of the atmosphere. Although not toxic, it is an asphyxiant, flammable & explosive.
Have you ever been in an elevator or some other enclosed space when methane gas is released. Talk about a bio-hazard. SBD.
Pity Le Pétomane. If he, as a professional flatulist & subject of an award winning musical were alive today, he would not be the vaunted entertainer that he was, but rather the bane of the high tech world.
As the world spirals into the unique brand of insanity known as mankind, I hope that my level of bemusement can keep up.
Oops, excuse me I farted.

Historicaly Hilarious

The other evening the daughter & hubby came over for dinner. The after dinner chat evolved into her speculation of the local team's possible appearance in the Super Bowl. "1st time ever." Being reminded that the team had been to the SB four previous times, she said,"Well that was before I was born. Anything that happened before I was born is not important." Her level of sarcasm was off the meter.
That got me wondering if that was the thought process of her generation. We certainly have enough people on the planet who already ignore the past.
Edmund Burke (1729-1797) said "Those who don't know history are destined
to repeat it. "
Look at the politicos. Is it arrogance that makes them believe it will be different on their watch? Are they short sighted, or is it they just don't care.
Republicans - the party of corrupt obstructionists
Democrats - the party of spineless incompetents.
Pay attention morons. Afghanistan, climate change, health care, energy, corporate America. Changes need to be made. Get it right, or as a species we will be history.

I don't get

Why Eddie Murphy, Nick Cage, Jim Carrey or Tom Cruise are allowed to keep making movies
Why Bill Gates isn't in the Graybar Hotel for marketing any version of Windows
Reality Shows (really)
Politician's ethics (this could be an oxymoron)
Cable News ( maybe, it should be Cable Opinions, that I get)
Why Pushing Daisies got canceled.
Why Firefly got canceled.
Infomercials ( When bored one night, I counted all the infomercials broadcast overnight per week. I stopped counting at 200 hours.
Cable TV, the future is now. My ass)
Why The Who isn't considered the greatest rock band ( Listening to you I hear the music)
The Twilight frenzy
Oprah, Judge Judy or Dr. Phil
The lack of civility in the world
Rutabagas,asparagus or broccoli

Ramblings

Am I the only one when Netflexing says " Hey, I could have done this" No I couldn't. I am just not that smart.

raison d'etre

The purpose of this blog is to explore,exploit and explode the mythos of my life before my mind (such as it is) begins to follow other of my body parts and function in a less then acceptable manner. Please remember this Blog is by and large based on satire.
