a chance of snow today!

There’s a chance of snow today!  Here in central Arkansas, this is big news.  We get very little snow each year — sometimes no accumulation, sometimes a few inches.  I suspect the grocery stores are already out of bread and milk, even though it’s still a few hours until the precipitation is supposed to start.  (That’s just how things work here; people stock up like we’re having a blizzard that’ll keep us home for weeks.)  The forecast is mostly for a “wintry mix” with some potential snow.

Anyway, on to the randomness related to this event.  I asked our resident randomness expert, Turtle Dundee, for his forecast on the upcoming inclement weather situation, and he had a very original response :

My forecast, perhaps a bit on the optimistic side, is for an enormous blizzard with 27 and a half feet of snow.  This blizzard will be so intense that it will create small glaciers and miniature wooly mammoths, which will taste like chicken.

Then our other writer continued that flow of randomness even further :

Ooh yeah… and on top of that the small glaciers will carve a small to medium crevice in my back yard which I will proclaim as the “diminutive canyon”.  People will come from far and wide to pay admission for the chance to see and/or pee in it. We can serve lemonade and wooly mammoth on a stick!

I don’t think I care too much about peeing in a canyon, but the idea of wooly mammoth on a stick does sound interesting…

random thought

I was lying in bed last night and the thought came to me.  i’m totally in favor of ‘capital punishment’… uppercase letters annoy me…

Mr. T vs. Chuck Norris

It’s too bad they never made an episode of the A-Team where Chuck Norris was the bad guy. He and Mr. T would have to fight (obviously), but they’d have to use stunt doubles or the world might end.  They could use special effects to try to recreate what an actual fight between them might look like.

Here’s a fan-made story where Mr. T and Chuck Norris actually do fight, and they even encounter some zombie ninja crocodiles with lasers.  (Yeah, it’s definitely random; and there’s a slew of bad puns; you’ve been forewarned.)  I won’t tell you who wins.

(BTW, I pity the fool who doesn’t know who is.)

Mr. T on CNN

Last night my Pastor said something along the lines of, “I don’t have time for nonsense”, and it reminded me of this picture of Mr. T which I had looked at earlier that afternoon while preparing the next post.  I almost bust out laughing, but managed to refrain.

Enjoy…  This is classic.
