Christmas Will Be Tight

My dear friends,

Somewhat embarrassing to admit, Christmas is tight this year. I will be making bedroom slippers for you as gifts. Please let me know your sizes. You'll most likely agree that it's a splendid idea, and should you wish to do the same, I've included instructions below.

How to make bedroom slippers out of maxi pads:

You need four maxi pads to make a pair.
Two of them get laid out flat, for t he foot part.
The other two wrap around the toe area to form the top.
Tape or glue each side of the top pieces to the bottom of the foot part.
Decorate the tops with whatever you desire, silk flowers (this is most aesthetically appealing), etc.

These slippers are:
* Soft and Hygienic
* Non-slip grip strips on the soles
* Built in deodorant feature keeps feet smelling fresh
* No more bending ove r t o mop up spills
* Disposable and biodegradable
* Environmentally safe
* Three convenient sizes: (1.) Regular, (2.) Light and (3.) Get out the Sand Bags.

I've attached a photo of the first pair I made so that you can see the nifty slippers for yourself....

Awaiting your response. It's crucial that I get the right size for each one of you.





Oh come on! LAUGH out loud with me! This is too good!

Thursday Tidbits



Oh to be so lucky...but alas I am at work today.

Went to the Disney Holiday on Ice last night. More on that when I feel better.

Auto Industry Bailout...what about the airline industry?

Xmas is upon us...I've not even started shopping yet.

I really need to figure out why my car heater isn't working.

That is all for now...move along people, nothing to see here.

Unique Identity



It's snowing daintily here at Dazd Central. Beautiful, serene and mesmerizing as it soothes the soul. I am reminded of a poem I wrote some years ago and posted here a couple of times.

Snowy Daydream

So beautiful yet so concise
Always unique and never two alike
Free to travel with the wind
Finding one another in the end
Swirls of wind give them flight
Well into the day and through the night
Continually they fall from the heaven above
Gently floating as if on wings of a dove
Sunlight through the clouds at last
Radiant perceptions the sun has cast
Creating a wonderland from the barren and cold
A beautiful scene before my eyes does unfold
Millions have arrived covertly with the night
Seemingly nonchalant with their impending plight
The sun warms the surrounding air
Forthwith delivering destiny without a care
Memories of this morning will appease my fears
Wondrous joys the snow yields each year.

Wildlife Epic Fail and Other Odd Schtuff

MARKLE, Ind. -- Five deer that wandered onto a highway overpass jumped to their deaths onto Interstate 69, one of them crashing through a tractor-trailer's windshield, police said.

After the animals' fatal plunge, their mangled carcasses littered the expressway to the horror of motorists who approached Friday's scene in the northbound lanes of I-69.

The 20- to 30-foot fall killed all five deer about 12:30 p.m. Friday, said Brian Jenks, a dispatcher with the Huntington County Sheriff's Department.

The last of the five deer went through the windshield of a tractor-trailer rig, but the driver was not injured, police said.


BBQ anyone? I wonder if this is related to the epidemic seen at the Christmas Place recently with wild hogs.

Its not clear whether the INDOT will be installing one of these at every interchange.


I'll admit I was a leg man myself....
