So, i’ve decided that it is my best interest not to read the news anymore. It’s always so darn negative. It puts my stomach in a knot. So in an effort to stop absorbing all the media’s negative energy, i made a simple google search for “Happy News.” Guess what it turned up? Happynews.com.  I have to admit that reading happy news is a bit weird.  Some how murder is more interesting.  But seriously, we need less negativity in our media.  I think it is partly responsible for the state of the economy.  They say you can bring illness onto yourself by dwelling on it.  Well, i think the same can be said for the mood of the country in general.  So spread the word, Happynews.com!

So it seems that everytime i eat at Jack in the Shit, i get sick.  Maybe it’s irony, or maybe it has something to do with this news story:

ST. CHARLES, Mo. (KMOV) — An Illinois woman said she ordered a BLT sandwich at a St. Charles Jack in the Box and got more than she bargained for upon discovering drops of blood on her order.

So was the moon landing really a hoax? We may never know. Well, actually, i know the guy that made the landing. We could just ask Matt…

So the next time i see Matt, I’ll ask him if it was real or just a Hollywood setup. And what’s with the Asian family having the picnic?

Silly Puddy is a silly name for puddy, wouldn’t you agree?  Anyway, that’s besides the point.

So i was reading today about how Obama has loosened the dress code in the White House.  They said that he frequently has meetings without his suit jacket.  Honestly, i was quite surprised that something like that made national news.  But it’s cool to see our generation getting closer to power.  A more laid back generation that still gets shit done, but without so much emphasis on image.  All that talk made me think back to the Bush presidency.

I was trying to remember the great moments of George W.  But i couldn’t think of any.    Well i could think of one.  Remember when Bush had the shoes thrown at him?  I think it’s important to point this situation out.  Why you ask?  Well, the guy who threw the shoes had time to throw the first shoe, bend down to pick up the second shoe, throw the second shoe, then start to run away.  All this happened before secret service entered the room.  Wow!

Imagine if those had been knives.  Bush could have been dead on the floor before the secret service even entered the room.  This says one of two things.  Either the secret service wasn’t doing their job, or they wanted to see Bush get hit in the face!    Here’s a pic from that day for those of you who never saw it.

Oh wait a second!  It’s our buddy Matt!  Well, no wonder the secret service didn’t jump out.  I wouldn’t protect that guy either!  It’s a good thing Matt isn’t our president.  This country would go up in flames!

Anyway, we are expecting a few new animals tomorrow.  In particular we are expecting Frilled Dragons and Green Tree Pythons.  I’ll post tomorrow when they arrive to confirm.  Until then, i need to find more funny pics of Matt.  I’m running low…

But we got a significant amount of snow last night.  It’s strange because they didn’t even forecast all the snow.  I was trying to figure out where it all came from.  Then i figured it out.  It’s punishment.  Punishment for what you ask?  Well, punishment for making fun of my buddy Matt.  Let me show you what i mean.

When you insult a yeti, they will bring about massive amounts of snow.  So i guess i should quit with the photoshopped images.  Or not…

Anyway, we had a demo at Mascoutah Elementary today.  But it seems that we will be rescheduling that for next week.  No biggie.  I’ve actually been pretty sick these past few days.  So it’s really in the best interest of the school that we don’t do the demo today.  They would be getting ripped off for sure.

Anyway, nothing really good happening today.  In fact, i’m not real sure what to expect from today.   I figured yesterday would be slow due to the weather, and it ended up being slammed.  Today, however, may be a different story.  We’ll just see what happens.

Anyway, this is a short post today.  I feel like crap.  I think i’m gonna sneak in a nap before noon…

What’s up planet?  Not much here.  All of us at the TDI are fighting the flu.  It’s pretty crappy.  When everyone else is sick, that leaves one person to run the shop, me.    Good times.  I’ve just been doping myself up on medication.  So we got like 3 inches of snow last night.  As expected all of the St. Louis area has shut down.  Schools are closed becuase of the snow on the grass.  I heard that in Colorado if there is less than 2ft of snow on the ground, they still have school.  Good old St. Louie.

Anyway, those of you who know me know that i’m a big Lord of the Rings dork.  I know it’s bad.  The nice thing is that my little boy digs it to.  So when i put Lord of the Rings on at home, my wife is out numbered.  Well, i was digging through some LOTR stuff last night, and guess what i found?  Our good friend Matt.  This dude is everywhere!  Check it out!

I really need to get this dudes autograph the next time i see him.  I can’t wait to see what i dig up for tomorrow! 

Anyway, i have to go shovel some snow.  I need to make sure the dogs can get to their pooping spot.  They don’t really like running through snow.  Especially when three inches of snow comes halfway up their bodies.  Until next time…

Sooo, upon posting that pic of our buddy Matt, i got to thinking about the famous “Where the hell is Matt?” videos.  Have you all seen them?  This guy travels the world and video tapes himself dancing in various places.  Check out his latest video.

So, that brings us back to our friend Matt.  His picture was so crazy, so i searched the net for him to see where he has been.  The pictures we retrieved were astonishing.  I figured i’d post one a day for you all until they are gone.  Here’s the first pic of our buddy Matt.

That dude is crazy.  I can’t wait to show you all the rest.  Stay tuned for all that…

Anyway, its Monday.  i hope you all had a good weekend.  We had a great one.  We are going to be moving more rodent racks into our rat room this week.  We may also be getting more animals this week.  We sold a ton of animals this weekend and we are a bit empty again.  I’ll post an update on that mid week.

Anyway, it’s time to take the dogs out for their mid-morning poop.    That’s always a good time, pooping in the grass.  Until next time…

So my buddy Matt is a real ladies man. In fact, he is such a ladies man, that i wanted to share one of his best pics with you all. What do you think?

I bet he’s single if any of you girls are looking. I think it’s safe to say that the beer in his hand in that pic wasn’t his first beer. LOL! Anyway, i’ll post a better entry later. I was just dying to share this pic with all you bloggers out there…
