Too Long Away
11.18.04 (9:21 am)   [edit]

Wow, I have been really busy...Well Sick....Well, Just plain damn lazy I guess to blog lately, But I sort of feel like it today I guess. Here goes


     Things around here have been a little weird to say the least (I'm talking about work, my home life is always a little weird, I live with three female if you count MY WIFE'S dog)  I don't know if any of you work in an Archarc Union environment, But I do, I swear these little boys haven't matured any further that grade 7!  They fight-Backstab-Lie-gossip more that 12 year old girls.  We are supposed to be on a united front against the EVIL EMPIRE that is our managment group, but they seem to fall prey to every conjured up rumour our bosses throw at them. Rumours either designed to extract information from the bretheren or to tear our unity apart, and you know what, IT'S WORKING!!!  We had a three hour bitch session last night at our union hall, and all the shit was layed out for all to see and boy did some of the boys have egg on their faces.  I guess everyone is a little on edge with the immanent sale of our company and the information void that has accompanied the sale.   If guys would just take the time to ask a few questions of each other, I GUARANTEE, this shit would not fester and the truth would be extracted like the rotten tooth in the back of my mouth and we could focus on some constructive attacks like winning the north pole back from Denmark.  For those of you who don't know, Those Crazy Danes have put in a land claim on the Arctic circle from Canada, those silly bastards walked in and planted a flag claiming that because they put their flag up, it is now under the direct rule of Denmark!!!  Hey, I realize we don't as Canadians, have the Military prowess to attack even say... Jamaica, but I have faith we could muster up enough good ole boys to over throw the royal danish army. 


    I guess I'm sick of being pushed around in all the fronts of my life right now..Between Aldolf Bush, My Union Bretheren, Don "THE DON" Osterman, and those crazy Danes, I wish we could all have a Mamosa and Chill out for a few thousand years.

What a freakin Day
10.29.04 (3:09 pm)   [edit]

Woke up, Got outta bed, dragged a comb across my head.  Made my way down stairs and drank a cup... looking up I noticed I was late, grabbed my coat and grabbed my hat, out the door in seconds flat..


     Well, my day sorta started like that, except for the late part, I can honestly say I have NEVER been late for work,  It might have something to do with my Anal fixation with setting my alarm clock and making sure it is turned on a thousand times before I can fall asleep (ask my wife, she thinks I'm a FREAK!)  Well I got out near my car and realized I had left my interior light on...Shit!, and My drivers door open...Shit! Shit! and my passenger door open Shit! Shit! Shit!...fuck some snotty asshole broke into my car and stole NOTHING except my NEW Snowboard!!!!!!! No CD's, No Stereo, No Cash from the Ashtrap...Nothing else.  Little Assfaced sack of monkey shit. I bet if I would have look out the window or left 1/2 hour earlier, I would have caught them in the act, the light in the car hadn't even started to dim, the Battery in the car was still FULLY charged, IT HAPENED IN THE MORNING.  What kind of crackhead thief is up at 5:00 am, well probably a crackhead thief hey.


     The funny part is, that was probably the highlight of my day.  As soon as I get to work, we get a letter from our CEO, Fat Charlie in Dallas, Stating our Oil and Gas division just bought 2.1 Billion dollars worth of Oil Basins in the U.K. Woo Hoo right? my stock will be worth a fortune right? Uhh Uhh Nooo Way, the letter later says that to fund the purchase, the Company must look at all assets to see what they can "Liquidate" to help pay for their miraculous find.  That's where I fall into this story.  I don't work for the Oil and Gas Division, I work for the Chemicals Division, and as of this morning The Chemicals division just became a prime "liquid" slush fund available to the highest bidder with VERY deep pockets.  I'm not saying I'm going to loose my Job, but I might loose the $80k paycheck that goes with my job.  But the real funny part of the whole story is My Sister In-Law Jess, works for the Company that my Company now owes 2.1 Billion dollars, so now it has become a family affair. But I highly doubt she had anything to do with it so I guess I still love her.

Halloween is HERE!!!
10.23.04 (1:14 pm)   [edit]

:twisted:


It's the Most wonderful time of the year!!!


     Or how ever that song goes,  For those of you who don't know I LOVE Halloween! Even more than Christmas. I mean, I like halloween in the same way R. Kelly likes watersports or Michael Jackson likes Small Puerto Rican Boys, I don't know why, I just do.  It makes me happy. 


     I have been piecing together my costume for about a week or so,I'm still missing a few critical pieces, I have faith I can find what I want. I don't have to work on Halloween this year for the first time in a long while, So some friends of mine, (and my Girlie if she feel up to it or is not busy) are going out to a local bar called The Queens. No it's not a drag or Gay bar!! ...well maybe it is, I'm usually quite under the influence when I go there, I'm not so sure now, come to think of it, oh well.


anyway,


It is a great place to see live music in Nanaimo where I live, Check out their home page, it's kinda lame but you get the point www.queensitslive.com


Plus rumour has it it's the only place the "Irish Rovers" will record, and Shit, that has to account for sumpthin hey.


My other friends haven't really ponied to dressing up, so I hope I'm not the only asshole who does, but you know what, who cares.


If I can get my wife to show me how to post pictures, I'll show you all the debauchery that goes down.  Have fun Don't drink and drive and get lots of candy


-i will light the match this mornin'/so i won't be alone
watch as she lies silent/for soon light will be gone
i will stand arms outstretched/pretend i'm free to roam
i will make my way through/one more day in hell

Painting and the Boston Red Sox
10.21.04 (6:20 pm)   [edit]

Wow, what an Anti-Climactic finish to a great series hey?  I loved seeing A-Rod on the bench with his 250 Million Dollar Contract, That's right, He gets One Quarter of a billion Dollars to Play Baseball for 10 years!!! I mean holy Shit, that is the Gross Domestic Product for some small 3rd world countries like Venezuela or DollyWood!!  But boy was it nice to see them suck the hind teat for once!!  Now only if The New York Rangers would continue their slide for another say 15 or 60 years the world would be a better place for us all.


    & nbsp; Anyhow, I'm at work today, a dayshift, and we are training a new guy to do my job on an opposite shift from me. So I don't have anything to do. I decided to take some innitiative and Paint the Control Room where I work ....Whoops, there was a miss step for the ages, not because of the Job, It is kinda relaxing to shut your brain off for a while, and crank up the tunes and Giver. 


     The trouble lies in the fact that EVERY FLIPPIN' MARTHA STEWART who works here comes through the room and tells me how they would have done it to make it better.  SHUT YOUR ASS FACES!! OR PICK UP A BRUSH AND SHOW ME!!! 


     What they don't realize is, I'm more than willing to let them help out, but when I suggest this, they seem to think my job is suddenly fine, Strange eh? 


    & nbsp; Oh well, back to painting, I think my Paint Fume Buzz is starting to wear off, and I really need to get it back.


Cheers

Work out is Workin Out - GO SOX
10.20.04 (1:22 am)   [edit]

I must be a sucker for Punishment...I turned 30 this year and realized that I have become somewhat of a slob since I quit playing Hockey, and started to watch it.  I decided about 8 weeks ago to start to go to the gym again. 


     So when the wife and I got back from a trip to Vegas, with our pockets a little lighter, (Although I did manage to win about $400 bucks playing BlackJack)  I started to go to the Gym.


      I was Flabberghasted when I stepped on the scale at the gym and saw what I really weighed compared to what the scale in our bathroom read!!! 


I played junior Hockey in Alberta until I was 21, my Playing weight was between 180 and 190lbs, I played at a fairly high level, but now I am 30, and you know how they say after a man will start to put on about 2 lbs a year after 25 years old, well I put on a little more, I topped the scale at a svelt 233lbs!!!.


Anyway I started to run everyday and push weights on a circuit. I am really starting to see results. I have only dropped about 6-7 lbs, but I can reeally see my body changing.


I have tried to stick with the "workout" thing before, but I always got bored.  But I have found a way to keep my workout to under 45 min and it seem to stave off the bordom.  anyhow I shall keep on truckin'...I wanna play hockey again next year, and It's just about SNOWBOARD season woohoo!!


GO BOSOX!

First time at Bat
10.16.04 (7:09 am)   [edit]

By the year of my 15th summer, I thought I had it all figured out......


 


 


 So what do you think?  That is the first line of the Novel that I always start in my head.  It seems like such a great line everytime I hear it I can't seem to bring myself to write anymore, for the simple reason, I'm a horrible writer, and I know it's only downhill from there.  So I just leave it where it is at, knowing I perfected at least one thing in my life!!


My name is Les Vegas, it obviously has been changed to protect the not so innocent.  Join me if you will in my latest quest at quieting down my A.D.D.,and three or four other voices in my head.


In the next few days,months,years, I hope to dazzel you with Bullshit and try to steal a few precious minutes of your life (which won't be refundable upon death) So you had better enjoy your time here.


Ever wonder what would have changed in your life had you made that one decision differently.  You know the one, the one that still plays in the back of your mind, Rolls around the pit of your Guts, and balls up in your throat whenever you think of it.  It may have played out your whole life differently!!


 


Mine did.   About 6 or 7 years ago, I was living with this broad, she was nice enough, and not all that hard to look at either (in the right light),  anyhow, this chick would not Stop.  Talk Talk Talk Talk Yap Yap Yap,  and ALL Bullshit, I mean I talk alot of shit most of the time, but this was unreal.


She would just about tell you she was a dude 5 years ago if you were having a conversation about your prostate just to get into the conversation!!!,


Anyhow, me being the assface I am, Proposed marrage to this girl, cause I sort of felt sorry for her. (she should have felt sorry for me)  As time with her dragged on, and my Mother Theresa asspirations of saving just one Lepper from the colony wained, I caught myself hating her more and more.  Waking up next to her and realizing "it ain't going to get any prettier there Batman."    I MADE MY DECISION.


I woke her up, rolled her over and told her to her face, I don't love you, I want you to leave.  And you know what?  After 2 weeks of her lying on my floor an emotional wreck, I got home and all my furniture and food was gone, ......But so was she!!!!!!


About a year later, I met a wonderful woman, She and I just had our 4th wedding anniversary and are about to have baby #2.


My Decision worked, I got lucky...what about you, think about it


-That's great it starts with an Earthquake, Birds, Snakes, and Airplanes, Lenny Bruce it not afraid.
