The Colorado Springs Airport on Wednesday installed amnesty boxes for people who didn’t realize that it’s illegal to possess marijuana on a plane or even at the airport.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\nNo only did I miss the story, I feel as though I’ve missed a real opportunity to install my own alternative amnesty boxes. The article doesn’t say what they do with the collected material, but let’s just say I wouldn’t mind an invite to the Colorado Springs Airport maintenance department’s Christmas party next year.<\/p>\n
I’m really starting to tire of this whole “Polar Express” crapola. For one thing, the name sounds like it should be a 64 oz beverage at a non-NYC 7\/11 (either that or the train that takes you to visit Santa). Mostly, though, it’s ‘cuz I’m getting too old for this shit. My stuff hurts enough when it’s nice out. What I really need is to spend about 12 hours a day in a nice warm pool. Or maybe I should buy a hot tub. Nah, if I had that kind of money, I’d get a plow truck (imagine that – plowing snow from inside a vehicle with the heater cranked and the radio on, drinking a beer :nod: ).<\/p>\n
Sunny this morning though, so no plowing required, thank goodness. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

At some point (while I wasn’t paying attention) it seems that the Rooskie Olympics started. I guess this means that I won’t be seeing the stuff I usually record on NBC for a couple of weeks (for last night, that means no Grimm or Dracula – bummer). I will mostly be ignoring the Olympics as much as is possible (not an easy feat), but I did hear that the Russian team marched into the opening ceremony to a Russian knockoff band’s rendition of Queen’s “We are the Champions” as Vladimir Putin grooved to the music. <\/p>\n
