Steve's Blog Part To the Point

Today's blog is short and sweet. To those cowardly anonymous commenters out there who want me to change the style of my blog, I say, no way! I change for no one! Well, except maybe my wife, but that's another story.

So keep your nasty comments to yourself! Well, really, it's your choice, of course, but that is what I suggest.

Steve's Blog Part Back From Vacay

Okay, blog fans. It's been a week since the last blog. But doesn't it feel a lot longer? I think so. I think it was a long week, even though the family and I went on a little vacay to Wildwood Crest, NJ this weekend. Of course it was nice and all, but I have two vacation issues that need to be addressed by the next President.

1. The sun. It's too darn hot.

2. The ocean. It was a lot colder than the real temperature.

I think the next President needs to form a task force to consider forming a sub-committee to consider the possbility of addressing these issues. While it is true that these issues may not be directly related to the so-called "National Security" that everyone always seems to be talking about, they are important nonetheless. And as a registered voter, I'm sure there are lots of other people who feel the same way I do. Do, you, feel like I do?

So if Obama or McCaim reads this blog, (or at least if someone can pretend to be them) I would like them to respond to this blog with a full proposal ASAP (as soon as possible, for those of you who don't know that abbreviation).

Yes, I know there is not a lot of humor in this week's blog, but sometimes a serious issue comes along that needs to be addressed in a forum such as Steve's blog.

So until next week, God Bless America, and all that.

Steve's Blog Part Musings

Lots of people think that today is "Juillet Quatorze", or some French holiday. But in reality, (well, my reality anyway), today is actually Jewy Cat Oars, a holiday celebrating a Jewish Cat who road a canoe down a river to freedom in the late 18 or 19 somethings.

Other people think that there is another French phrase "Je ne sais quoi", when in fact it is actually "Jenny say Kwah", a phrase named after Jenny's friends who used to goad her into making funny sounds.

Aren't languages funny. And names in differenet languages are funny, too. We actually had a friend in elementary school whose name was Manoj (with no trois), and his brother's name was Ragu (not Francesco Rinaldi). That is really true.

And what about nicknames, huh? How about that football player "The refrigerator" Perry. Do you think he could make his own ice cubes?

And how about the fact that there are two rapper/actor guys, one is named Ice Cube and one is names Ice-T. I mean, Luke Skywalker didn't call himself Luke Warm. See what I mean?!

And what's the deal with the DMV? Why does it take so long to get your license renewed? I have to go there soon. I hope it doesn't take too long for me, because I also have to go the bank that day and the dentist, and we have to get ready to go down the shore the next day. Wow, sometimes life just gets busy, huh?!

Wow, I'm sure I have overloaded all of you readers with too much to think about in this blog.

Until next time. Stay cool.

Steve's Blog Part Before or After

Well, as I start to write this blog, I don't yet have a title. I guess that's the way life works sometimes. Sometimes you start out with a title and then fill in the details, and sometimes we fill in the details first and then give it a title after the fact.

Like when I was four years old, and our family was going to Disney World. Undoubtedly, you could have given out trip a clever title beforehand like "Our trip to Disney World" because we knew where we were going.

On the other hand, there was the time after an art event we went to in New Hope, PA that I though I knew a short cut back to the road I wanted to be on, and we ended up lost in Bucks County farmland for 45 minutes at 1:30 in the morning. After the fact, you could have given that story a title like "Hellish time being lost in the middle of nowhere" or something equally as clever.

So, have I made my point. Let's bring on Helen VonTitleburg of the Titles Beforehand Institute in Titleburg, Germany. Let's see what she has to say about this topic: "I prefer titles beforehand." Hmm, telling words indeed.

And not to be outdone, we bring on Professor Louis After-de-fact of the Apres-Title Institute in Apres-Ski, France. Let's see what he has to say: "After the fact title is better, no?" Hmm again.

Well, there you have it. Which do you prefer?

Later,

Steve
