Laziness has taken a giant leap forward. Two Dutch companies have put their heads together to come  up with a gas pump that fills your tank while you sit comforably in your car, filing your nails or gabbing on your cell phone. “TankPitstop” is a robotic gas pump that recognizes your car’s make and model and chooses  the most appropriate fuel for your wheels. Then it dispenses the gas right into your tank and you don’t have to touch a thing…it also debits your bank account to pay the bill.

How about creating more jobs and hire “people” to pump gas like right here in Oregon and New Jersey, the only states to have such a service.

There’s a guy named Stephen Lightfoot, who says that he knows the truth about who killed John Lennon.  He says that Stephen King was the person who pulled the trigger.  He bases it on the fact that Stephen King looked like Mark David Chapman at the time.  This story is even weirder than the guy who says Jim Morrison is alive and living in the Northwest.  Click here to get the full story and a video of this guy .
If I didn’t know any better, I’d say that it was a horror story penned by Mr. King himself.

It’s a will know fact that animals, cats in particular, can perceive things we humans can’t. Some, maybe your own cat, have extra-sensory perception. although it can be difficult toknow what your cat is truly thinking, with practice, you can learn if she has psychic gifts by paying close attention to  her behavior. Here’s how:

If your kitty climbs onto your chest and stares into your eyes when you’re lying down or reclining in a chair,  she’s looking deeply into your soul. If she blinks often, it means she sees your inner turmoil or an important decision you have yet to make.

If your cat runs and hides before a thunderstorm erupts, she senses  electricity in nature. Cats who have developed this ability to its highest level are often able to warn of emotionally tense situations before they happen.

If your cat suddenly leaps into the air and tears  around the house, she’s sensing “energy” from the universe. This can often be a good sign for luck, creativity or beginning a new business venture.

If your cat stares and purrs at an empty space, she senses the spirit of a dead person. This is often a sign that someone from the “other side” wishes to communicate with you, or has some unfinished business in the area where the ghost is most often seen.

If your cat suddenly switches affections between owners – if she used to be  a “daddy’s girl” and is now a “mommy’s girl”,
for example – she’s sensing a profound change in her new object of attention, either physical, mental or emotional. If you’re unaware of any changes, talk to your partner. You might be suprised at what you discover.

If you’re not a cat person and think this is all a crock of s… you could be right too.  No one has ever really got feedback  from one. Stupid cat!

I was sort of stunned when I first learned that Fresno, California would have a franchise of the legendary Cabo Wabo…Sammy’s bar in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.  The Tahoe branch made sense because it’s a resort, but Fresno?  Well, the honeymoon didn’t last long.  Three months in fact.  Sammy’s taking them to court.  Click here for the link to the story.

But on another front, he’s opening one in St. Louis, the city that gave him the name The Red Rocker, with the proceeds going to children’s charities in the area.

This little blog seems to be making it’s way around the internet…because it’s just so darned funny.  I got a copy from my family in L.A. this morning, and then Lady April sent it my way as well.  Click Here for the link to the blog and get ready to laugh at the past.

You know how these things are.  There’s a poll and people give their opinions.  If you don’t agree that means that you should start a blog or magazine and tell us your own opinion.  I agree somewhat with this list, and of course there’s some glaring omissions too….but enjoy.

The Golf Gods are not fair!! I’ve came close to getting a hole in one (6 inches or less) about 5 or 6 times in 30 years of playing golf. Key word “close”. Now along comes a kindergarteener dropping an ace.

5-year old Drew Gray of Bellville, Illinois has got game. I’m not really complaining and I think it’s great the little tyke scored a one on the 75-yard fifth hole at Yorktown Golf Club.  That made him the youngest player to ace a hole at the course and he had
plenty of witnesses. Several family members were with him and it was verified by owner John Bethard.

Drew has been playing for two years and played this summer in the club’s golf camp for 4-8 year olds. Way to go kid!
