I just figured out


the meaning of the song "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus!" I had no idea that "Santa Claus" was really the little kids father! How ironic! I thought that the "Mommy" was having a hot steamy affair with the fat jolly guy!!! And to think all these years I was so disturbed by the picture that song created in my mind. Oh the things we learn when we grow up!

Worst Album Covers...EVER!

He does look pretty REAListic on this album cover.

What is this insinuating? I don't get it... Someone fill me in.


I think the guy the fourth from the left went to my high school. Adam O anyone?



Look in the crystal ball... definitely don't see my future.





How cool is it to be in a band with your mom as the lead singer? I wonder if the keyboard player is hiding in her god awful hairdo...



Is that her dad? Her boyfriend? Is he trying to explain to her that it's no longer statutory rape now that she's sixteen? She looks pissed.






What a but-her-face! But oh my, does that strategically placed single rose make her look so innocent and demure. Totally draws the attention away from her hideous face!






Apparently "trees talk too" as well as the disturbing puppet and/or small child on her lap.








2 in the pink, one in the...








Love the porn star stash. He can borrow a feelin' anytime he wants from me. Perhaps creeped out could be the feelin' he borrows.










This is just wrong. Look at the girl in the middle. If she knew what she looked like she probably wouldn't have agreed to be on the album cover.

Only in Shelbyville...

While reading The Shelbyville News, I came across a few police reports that made me question the town I grew up in and so loved. I'm sure the police do a lot to stop actual crime from happening and I'm positive the tax payers aren't wasting their money, but come on...

1:14 a.m., Kroger's, 1601 E. Michigan Road - A man opened a box of doughnuts, ate one and was going to leave without paying until confronted. The man told the officer he "wanted to try one before he bought them." The officer advised him that was not how it works. He paid for the doughnuts and was warned not to come back.

8 p.m., GasAmerica, 1424 block of Harrison Street - A man reported that a customer had came in and presented a counterfeit half dollar.

6:08 a.m., 1000 block of Spring Way Drive - A man found a white substance all over his black truck.

10:14 a.m., 100 block of Colescott Street - A woman reported the theft of a Harley-Davidson sweatshirt

8:51 a.m., 800 block of Dagley Court - A man was accused by a neighbor of urinating between the trash bins. He denied it.

7:12 a.m., Indiana Live! Casino, 4196 N. 200W - A man reported that on Sunday morning he rode to the casino with a man he had just met at Lucky's bar in the man's blue Euro, and they were gambling next to each other when he said he "hit it big" and the stranger leaned over, hit the "cash-out" button, grabbed the ticket and ran away. The man reporting the incident said it happened so fast that he didn't even see how much he had won, but he estimated it was "in the thousands."

My new nose!

Okay, I'm caving and posting some awful pictures that your computers will probably all block because of the shear terror that they may produce. But, I'm doing it anyway. My surgery went well and thankfully I was prescribed some nice anti-anxiety drugs beforehand so I wasn't too nervous! Days two and three were, by far, the worst of all in the healing process (as you can tell in one of the pictures below. I was as miserable as I looked!) Enjoy!


The worst day, by far, of the entire healing process...


Getting better...





New, but really swollen profile!
