If Hitler were out to conquer the world, why did he not build a great fleet? Why did he not demand the French fleet when France surrendered?
Who knows? Hitler did a lot of wacky and dumb stuff for God knows what reasons.
Also, Hitler told his navy they had to build up a fleet to fight the British navy, but that war would not come until 1945. So of course when war came in 1939, the German navy was not ready.
Also, when France surrendered, the British navy sank numerous French warships to prevent them from falling into German hands. Many French sailors died, causing much bitterness between England and France.
When my mom makes po-boys, she uses ground flank steak, pressed together with a bunch of butter and garlic (like, two heads worth) and pan-fried. The rolls get brushed with the garlic butter, too. It's tasty, but one should not be in polite company for the next, oh, two days. On the plus side, we can eat those on her deck and the mosquitos leave us alone.
I am ignoring the disturbing enema talk until I have finished my lunch. And maybe even after that.
ION, I love the smell of Summer thunderstorms....
My brother makes awesome po-boys with fried oysters. He is an excellent chef when it comes to things that can make you gain 5 pounds by looking at them.
Okay, this is where I am right now:
Human beings were not meant to sit in little cubicles staring at computer screens all day, filling out useless forms and listening to eight different bosses drone on about about mission statements.
Except this job is too weird for the banality of Office Space. Except! Except I work with several Miltons. The guy in the cube next to me is a blander, less greasy Milton. And his supervisor rolls by and says stupid shit about twice a morning, just like Gary Cole. The guy who failed to train me in any useful fashion is a more hunched, nicotine emitting Milton.
I think Miltronry has replaced Babbitry in the modern world.
Truly a paradise lost.
It leaves me in agonistes.
As Friday pick-up, may I offer this culture mash-up gem, combining theme parks, So You Think You Can Dance, Star Wars and The '80s.

too many crappy people stories.
YAY duck boats and lip-synching dancing Disney "cast members".
