Dumb Ass Awards
5th Place goes to the Warehouse workers. Innovative, but stupid.
4th Place goes to the guy we all know is patting himself on the back thinking "I don't know WHY I never thought of this before!"
3rd goes to the make-shift linemen who were ON THE LADDER when it was raised.
2nd Place for the guy that God is keeping around to see what else he'll do.
But first place is reserved for this guy. At first glance, you might think he's dumb. Oh, no. It's much worse than that. He's on a metal ladder, in a pool, without shoes on, soaked from getting on, and USING AN ELECTRIC DRILL WITH THE POWER CORD IN THE WATER.

DA VINCI CODE
Written across the wall of the cave were the following symbols:
It was considered a unique find and the writings were said to be at least three thousand years old!The piece of stone was removed, brought to the museum, and archaeologists from around the world came to study the ancient symbols.
They held a huge meeting after months of conferences to discuss the meaning of the markings.The President of the society pointed to first drawing and said:
"This is a woman. We can see these people held women in high esteem.
You can also tell they were intelligent, as the next symbol is a donkey, so they were smart enough to have animals help them till the soil.
The next drawing is a shovel, which means they had tools to help them.
"Even further proof of their high intelligence is the fish which means that if a famine hit the earth and food didn't grow, they seek food from the sea.
The last symbol appears to be the Star of David which means they were evidently Hebrews. The audience applauded enthusiastically.
Then a little old Jewish man stood up in the back of the room and said, "Idiots, Hebrew is read from right to left......It says: 'Holy Mackerel, Dig The Ass On That Chick!!"

If you can't beat 'em. . . piss 'em off!
MAN PAINTS HOUSE LIME GREEN WITH PURPLE POLKA DOTS IN DISPUTE
HOW DO YOU LIKE IT NOW?
Angry homeowner paints a colorful protest By KAREN HILL When the Avondale Estates Historic Preservation Commission wouldn't approve plans for a rounded stoop on a house Stan Pike owns on Kensington Road, he had it painted this way in protest.
Stan Pike believes that if you can't beat City Hall, you can at least go down swinging -- and in his case, that means with a paint brush.
The Avondale Estates man lost his bid Monday night to get that city's Historic Preservation Commission to approve his plan to add a rounded front stoop to a house he's renovating on Kensington Road.
Pike said it was the second time in two months that he had wrangled with the board over changes to the house.The commission didn't like the proposed designs for the house, Pike said. No member of the commission could be reached for comment. City Manager Warren Hutmacher said commission meeting minutes don't show why the commission rejected Pike's request.
Pike stewed about it Tuesday, then went to work Wednesday morning.
He called two painters. By day's end they had painted the front of the house lime green, then added large, purple polka dots. It's quite a sight in the quiet, small town known for its tasteful residential neighborhoods. "It's certainly making a point," said resident Karen Horace, as she lingered in her car Wednesday at the four-way stop in front of the house. Horace added that the six-person Historic Preservation Commission, which must approve renovation plans submitted to City Hall, "does have a reputation for being a little difficult sometimes." She recalled another neighbor who got a letter from the commission scolding him for tacky yard decorations.
Pike seems to enjoy being a little difficult himself. With a large smile, he told gawkers at the lime-green house that he's amended his list of chores to next include scattering old toilets, filled with geraniums, around the front yard.
The uproar left Hutmacher, just three months on the job, scrambling to find out if he can make Pike repaint the house its original white color. So far no luck. The city attorney was out of town Wednesday and Hutmacher's staff was continuing to comb through the law books.
Horace, who lives nearby, said she would vote for the more dignified white. "I support the man's protest, but please, that's gotta go," she said.Pike isn't budging. He actually lives in another house in Avondale and bought this one for $180,000 to renovate and resell.
"I'm fighting them and I'm not through," he said. "I might leave it this way forever. I might just live in it."

Pumpkin Carving

This may be for kids, but I really enjoyed it.
It even plays Monster Mash while your 'carving'. . . now try not to think of me dancing around the house, yielding a carving knife while dancing to 'The Mash'
