Thatisabsurdity.com - Humorous Observations

Nov. 30th/Dec. 1st, 2014 - So, as many of you regular readers already know, I am a huge fan of British news websites. The reason why is because the British seem to really love their news! Yeah, so there are about 1,382 Daily Newspapers here in The United States and many of them have websites. The problem is, however, that

Thatisabsurdity.com - Humorous Observations

Nov. 29th/30th, 2014 - So, have you ever purchased anything off of eBay? I personally have never used eBay to buy or sell anything, but a whole lot of other people do every day. In fact, the founder of eBay, Pierre Omidyar, is apparently worth 8.7 Billion Dollars! So anyway, in my never ending search to find weird and wacky things to write about for you, I stumbled upon...

Thatisabsurdity.com - Humorous Observations

Nov. 28th/29th, 2014 - So, did you have anything that your were particularly grateful for during this past Thanksgiving? As you know, being "thankful" is the proverbial reason for the season as they say. Well, I suppose I have quite a bit to be thankful to God for. I and my Wife and kids are all healthy. We got to spend our day together here at home instead of hanging out in an airport or worse yet, in a ...

Thatisabsurdity.com - Humorous Observations

Nov. 27th/28th, 2014 - So, did you get stuffed for Thanksgiving? Did you eat so much that it put you into a Turkey Coma? Well, of course that’s just an expression and nobody actually goes into a coma after eating a large meal. But the reason I bring it up is because my Wife and I were watching a T.V. show the other night and one of the characters wound up...

Thatisabsurdity.com - Humorous Observations

Nov. 26th/27th, 2014 - So, one of the things that has been all over the news lately (aside from Ferguson) of course, is “immigration”. Well folks, I’m sorry to report that liberals have been pushing the boundaries on this front for a long time. In fact, I wrote about an absurd lawsuit way back on August 27th, 2007 for my original Blog “That’s Absurd” which used to appear on HamptonRoads.com Since I (like most of you I presume) am trying to get ready for T-Day, I thought...

Thatisabsurdity.com - Humorous Observations

Nov. 25th/26th, 2014 - So, rather than focus on all of the recent unpleasantness occurring in Ferguson, I thought I would you give you Dear Readers something completely different to worry about. Isn’t that nice of me? Yeah, now this problem has nothing to do with race or politics. It has nothing to do with police procedures or high crime communities. In fact, this problem occurs all over the world and is an equal opportunity offender. Yup, it’s doesn’t matter if...

Thatisabsurdity.com - Humorous Observations

Nov. 24th/25th, 2014 - So, I have found throughout the course of my life that in just about all endeavors, there is generally a “right way” and “wrong way” to go about things. All too often, however, we see folks engaging in the “wrong way”, and it sure does make a huge mess for everyone else. Take for example the protesters in Ferguson, MO. History teaches us time and time again that...

Thatisabsurdity.com - Humorous Observations

Nov. 23rd/24th, 2014 - So, one of the things that comes with the proverbial territory of “parenthood” is the worry and fear factor. Not for yourself, of course. I’m referring to the worry and fear you have for your children and their future. Now obviously, some things are completely beyond your control. You can tell your child a thousand times to look both ways before they cross the street, but you can’t block off the streets and roads to traffic. If I had a nickel for every time I told one of...

Thatisabsurdity.com - Humorous Observations

Nov. 22nd/23rd, 2014 - So, my wife is a fan of those “Hollywood Gossip” shows on T.V. You know, like Entertainment Tonight or Access Hollywood and such. Now I personally can’t stand those types of shows, mainly because I just don’t care about which “star” is dating which, but also because I’m getting to an age where I just don’t know who most of these supposed “celebrities” are! But occasionally when I happen to walk through the room where my Wife is...

Nov. 21st/22nd, 2014 - So, do you like going on boat rides or cruises? If you grow up in an area like where I live, it is inevitable that at some point in time you will find yourself out on the water. Hell, we’re surrounded by the stuff here! In my hometown of Va. Beach, Virginia we have all kinds of Charter Boat operations to take people out into the Atlantic Ocean for sightseeing or deep sea fishing. In our neighboring city of Norfolk there is...

Nov. 20th/21st, 2014 - So, unless you have been hiding in a cave for the past couple of weeks, then you already know all about the recent scandals regarding BILL COSBY. Now what I find to be most interesting about this whole situation is the fact that people are so shocked and surprised. I mean, yes if the accusations and allegations are true then the man is indeed a...

Thatisabsurdity.com - Humorous Observations

Nov. 19th/20th, 2014 - So, it seems to be an unfortunate fact of life that when two or more cultures come into contact with each other, bad things tend to happen. It has apparently been this way since the beginning of time. In fact, just about the entire Old Testament of The Bible is a narrative describing war and conflict between neighboring cultures. And just think about...

Nov. 18th/19th, 2014 - So, unless you are a fan of reading British News websites like I am, you probably missed THIS STORY. But, it could just as easily have been written here in America. Yeah, there’s just no denying it folks, we’re a Nation of “fatties”. And the really strange part is that we didn’t used to be! I mean, there has always been a certain segment of our population who have been overweight. Everybody in my age group can remember that one “Aunt” (for example) who...

Nov. 17th/18th, 2014 - So, have you ever gone down the rabbit hole? I did last night. Yeah, I believe I have written about this before, but nothing puts me to sleep faster than a good old cheesy horror film on T.V.; preferably in black and white and with the volume set on low. Now while I do maintain a rather formidable collection on DVD, I occasionally just hop on to the ROKU and browse through some of the “spooky” channels...

Nov. 15th/16th, 2014 - So, did you see THIS STORY in the news? Apparently, it’s not all that uncommon for folks to be mistaken for the dead. WHAT?!?! Yeah, I know it sounds bizarre, but such is the world we live in. Even after all of this time of living and dying on Planet Earth, we humans still seem to have a hard time figuring out when a person is actually deceased. I guess we need to...

Nov. 14th/15th, 2014 - So, it seems the biggest crisis in America these days is "immigration". Yeah, we've got illegal immigrants streaming over the borders, we've got Joe Biden wanting to just fly them in on planes, and we've got a President who says "Constitution? We don't need no stinking Constitution!" Well, believe it or not folks, this battle over immigration has been going on for a very long time in...

Well, even though you probably have at least a picture or two hanging in your home, have you ever given much thought as to...

Moving right along, for those of you who have kids, what I am about to explain will not be “news” to you at all.

Nov. 10th/11th, 2014 - So, as November 11th marks the annual celebration of Veterans Day, I thought I would honor the brave men and women of our nation’s Armed Forces both past and present by presenting the tale of the strangest battle our country has ever fought in its history. Many people probably don’t even know about this battle, but everything I am about to relay to you is true. It’s going to...

But the...

Nov. 7th/8th, 2014 - So, I was perusing around the “interwebs” today and I found THIS STORY about a new invention that will soon be coming to market. Now, what fascinates me about this particular invention is the simple fact that I should have thought of this first! Yup! In fact, I wrote about this very activity before. For those of you who have been regular visitors, you might recall that back in mySept. 6th/7th Edition, I wrote of...

So basically a guy goes to a restaurant in Atlantic City, NJ and asks his waitress for a “wine recommendation”. The waitress suggests a selection for the dude, and when he inquires as to the price for said bottle, she explains that it is “thirty seven fifty”. Now, I ask you...

Nov. 4th/5th, 2014 - So, I was listening to the radio in the car the other morning, and the host used that old expression “it warms the cockles of my heart”. I suddenly realized that after nearly half a century on this planet, I had no earthly idea what a “cockle” was or what (if anything) it might have to do with a person’s heart. I mean, I know what the expression is attempting to convey, but...
