Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not some farcical aquatic ceremony. You can't expect to weild supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tot threw a sword at you! I mean, if I went 'round saying I was Emporer just 'cause some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

Pain In My Ass
An old friend once said that he had the Midas touch...everything he touched turned into a muffler. I know exactly what he meant.
I am a pretty good guy. I usually do the right thing. I am pretty smart, analytical, and dilligent. So why is it that every time I try to do something...anything...it is always more complicated than it should be, cost more that it was supposed to, or lead to another problem that will be a pain in my ass?
Every trip to a store - especially Home Depot - usually requires a 2nd trip or a trip to another store. Most sales people are idiots. Traffic sucks. People can't drive. And if I get another Diet Coke when I order a Coke at a Mexican restaurant, I am going to start throwing guacamole around like those monkeys that throw their own poop! Are they trying to say I'm fat or something?
You know, I have been looking for some plain white t-shirts ever since I moved up here. How hard is it to find these things? No, not the cheap Hanes or FTL things in the plastic packs. Those are too thin, shrink, and just look sloppy. The good news...today, in between two seperate trips to a bike shop (that inspired this Pain In My Ass) I hit a Target and finally found some. Phew! That only took five months.
