Out of the Blue

Wow the weather here has gotten pretty darn severe, which is intimidating considering how little of the hurricanes causing all this are actually making their way all the way up here. The wind isn't a factor, but we're getting some incredible downpours at the moment in spite of being nowhere near the brunt of this spent storm. Strangely, there's some commercial running on TV lately showing a mailman cheerfully delivering mail during a hurricane... an odd choice during a tropical storm season that's seen so many fatalities. Anyway, here's hoping you and yours are staying safe and dry during all this if your area is being impacted... some nasty stuff is going on.

Of course, my thoughts are with the whole Blue clan...but to change course a bit..(a lot).

One of the companies charged in the condom article was "TTB Productions". Not that I watch this stuff or anything, but I'm told that this might be a gent by the name of TT Boy.

If they want to legislate condom usage by this individual, the manufacturers of the prophylactics should be required to market XXXL versions of their product.

Otherwise he'll have to resort to gutting zoo animals to continue his career.
