Z Z Top Irony

Z Z Top's drummer is named Frank Beard, and he's the only member of the band who doesn't have a beard. 

Best Thing on TV

The best show going on TV right now (unless they've cancelled it) hands down is My Name is Earl. Just watch one.

ATM Humor

Sally and I drove through an ATM earlier this evening. "Have you ever noticed the Braille on the ATM keys?" she asked. "Uh-huh" I replied. "What are blind people doing driving through an ATM?" she inquired. Good question.

Chinese Cow

My dog Bert has been staying at the Sally Cox School of Beagle Obedience. She has a Beagle named Chipper, who happens to be a good friend of mine, and she's helping to train (actually doing most of the work herself) Bert to be a proper dog like Chipper. I brought over a bunch of Bert's toys and Sally brought out a bunch of Chipper's old toys, and the two dogs had a bit of a toy swap. Chipper ended up with a new bone and Bert selected this cow. It's made in China of course. To save on costs the Chinese company decided to give him only two legs. I wonder if they passed the savings on to the consumer. I guess the Chinese figure that the dog won't care, and neither will the Americans as long as they look at it from the side, but it's a bit of an insult to cows everywhere. It won't stand up for shit, and it's totally meant to be viewed in profile, lying on the floor. It's true...Bert doesn't care one way or another, and I don't think Chipper had a problem with it either, but it's lame. Crazy Chinese.
