myOtaku.com: Mamma Vash


Tuesday, December 13, 2005

If it is Tuesday, this must be...?Dude- land.
The coastline is a small part of California, but surfer-speak seems to dominate the language. The word "dude" in particular. It kind of makes me laugh though, it is a funny sounding word. I guess I am in a giggler mood this morning ( Uh, oh-- the Peanut Gallery approaches:"Truth is, Mamma Vash, you stayed up too late again watching anime!") Guilty as charged! I was watching Cowboy Bebop-- if you are a Bebop fan, do you have a favorite episode? I love "Stray Dog Strut", the story of how Ein joins the crew! As we say in So Cal: Cool, dude! (or dudette, I think Dude is gender neutral).

As I am in such a silly mood, I found these little true vignettes about dumb things people do (my fave is from Chico, Ca!)

True stupid stories 01
Really Stupid People

Police in Wichita, Kansas, arrested a 22-year-old man at an airport hotel after he tried to pass two (counterfeit) $16 bills.

The Chico, California, City Council enacted a ban on nuclear weapons, setting a $500 fine for anyone detonating one within city limits.


Swedish business consultant Ulf af Trolle labored 13 years on a book about Swedish economic solutions. He took the 250-page manuscript to be copied, only to have it reduced to 50,000 strips of paper in seconds when a worker confused the copier with the shredder.
. .

When two service station attendants in Ionia, Michigan, refused to hand over the cash to an intoxicated robber, the man threatened to call the police. They still refused, so the robber called the police and was arrested.

A Los Angeles man who later said he was "tired of walking," stole a steamroller and led police on a 5 mph chase until an officer stepped aboard and brought the vehicle to a stop

What is the funniest thing you have in your office (if you work), your home, or locker (if you go to school)-- I have a little plastic parrot that sits under the monitor-- will have to take a picture, because the little guy looks like he is saluting. Sorry this post is so long, but I guess I get talkative with the "sillies".
Well, I wish a pacific sunrise to you all... enjoy warmth of the heart even if the weather is cold!
