What's new

Wow,
This is like not a weird one, but just an update on what's happened in the past month. I've lost contact with a few peeps, but here goes:

My brother Brady came down to visit for a weekend while my free-wheeling spending parents went to Aruba for the umpteenth time (at least they've bought a timeshare now so they're committed). We had a great time, playing some football with people and finishing up with a great dinner at Sweetwater Tavern.

While he was here I bought a Kawasaki KDX 200
Off of ebay. Pretty decent bike, but it'll take a little fixing up since it's a 2002.

Then the weekend after that, I bought a huge freakin' 1999 4x4 Dodge Ram 1500.

Man it's big. At least compared to my Tiburon. I kept that too though. I think I might sell the Honda VTX though, I don't really ride it and it's a $300/month drain on the personal economy.

Well, I know this one didn't take much thought. BUT SCREW YOU! ;)....later people have a good weekend.

Sizzle Frogs

One time when I was 12 I thought I'd be really sneaky and surprise the mail lady with 3 frogs jumping out at her from the mailbox as she delivered the mail.

I came out a day later to notice 3 coaster-like frog skin/skeletons crispy on the ground. I guess in my excitement of the prank I had forgotten that even in Michigan in the summer, it can get a little toasty inside of a metal mailbox.

I didn't mean to kill them I swear. I love frogs.

Chad and I used to catch them all the time at Columbia Creek park. We would swing from the tire swing and jump into the creek and swim, catching enormous bullfrogs and crayfish that were plentiful. It was a great time.

Screw money.

Well,

I think it's time for an explanation as to why I call this blog the Girl Scout Militia. When I was in high school / Going into college, I kept going to all of these websites which would ask me for my business's name, and of course I didn't have one.

So one time I was bored and I just started thinking of why the Girl Scout's need to fundraise all the time. With the selling of baked goods & popcorn or whatever the heck else they sell door-to-door or through their parents, I thought they must have a pretty nice stash of cash.

Couple that thought with the idea of uniforms and certain survival skills (while probably not nearly as vital as the Boy Scouts), I figured they had the logistics and training to make such an idea viable.

So here the Girl Scouts are, at your door smiling with your boxes of Samoa's (my favorite, you can talk about yours), in the mean time money is being laundered and through various funneling channels back to buy nuclear arms and pay for more training operations for whenever their skills are needed (and that day is coming).

So I started using the Girl Scout Militia as my personal company name, and my mom started getting scared that the government was going to start paying extra attention to mail and different things that would come to the door for my militia group (being in Michigan, we love our militias). I think it's a great idea, and I thought I'd claim the name before the Girl Scouts' become forthright about their activities, but I'm glad to have exposed them first.

Ok enough from me.
