Are you kidding me?

Attention all would be terrorists: please wait on your sofa, do not tax your brain planning the hows and wheres. Just wait for MSN to tell you what and where and how to hurt us:

Study weighs impact of California nuclear blast

Report: Blast at Port of Long Beach could kill 60,000, dwarf cost of 9/11.

I don't dispute that we need tightening of our containers Wal-Mart brings in to our country, we know this is a gap in policy. But the article, found here tells, in great detail just how much damage it would cause, and how much more damage than 9/11. To paraphrase the article, simply smuggle a 10 kiloton nuke in a container and whammo, and you just did 10 times better than Bin Ladin did, way to go!

Why would MSNBC run such a story? I'll let you know when I get an answer...

Just seems illogical. I don't put out stories like, how to break into the Melon Compound do I? no. Or say, How to put the Melon out of work by forwarding this blog address to my superiors (on paper at least)? Heck no. Maybe MSNBC has outsourced their editors to India or someplace that doesn't feel threatened by providing roadmaps on how to take us down a notch or two.

Baffling.

todays survey

Since you all have done so well with the past two surveys I've taken ( another shirt slogan for Dad and do you get full eating salad or just bored ), here is another: If you eat, say, a bag full of fortune cookies - and I am not saying I have - do they all come true or just a first/last rule? Do they all negate if you eat more than one? Anyone? Bueller?

And now we are One!!!!

Who would have thought: you would keep reading after day 3? I would keep writing after day 2? (see http://robertwmason.blogspot.com/ for reference) that you would get anything out of this? that I would get anything out of this? that I would make 250 posts into this thing..? And "get" I did. Last month, I signed my first contract for a writing position (in my free time) with a Rhode Island magazine. I used many excerpts from my blog as samples and they dug it, enough to want to pay me. I am very excited about that. A big thank you to all of you that keep reading that misadventures of my family, friends and I. The journey thus far has been fun and giving you a bird-eye view into our lives is weirdly fun. At first it was like walking around naked, now I am a full fledged nudist; so to speak. In looking back over the first year, I live like a king. Sometimes all it takes is a bit of reflection to see how good you've got it. Usually this hits me on business trips and ...

How I'll probably die

My new thing has gotten me running, yes running, the past week without complaint and without watching the clock. Unfortunately, the high-risk fringe sport will probably have Ian find me at the end of the treadmill runway, twisted, with a guitar slung from my neck. What is it you ask? Some kind of Mariachi Marathon? Close. Running while playing Guitar Hero is the greatest thing since running with my buddy Jeff. Come to think of it, that really was just running with someone calling you, "fatty" the whole time, but I digress. Running while jamming on guitar trying desperately to keep up with great hits like "American Women" and the surprisingly fitting, "Band on the run". See what I did there? Anyhow, it is freaking amazing. No longer are my eyes glued to the maddening clock. No longer am looking at data (which I seem to hate when it is counting my exercise), I am playing a game. I am a Rock God when I run. Now, I know what you are thinking. Being a...
