Diane: What are you going to do?
Steve: I'm gonna give him directions.

A View Of Things To Come
Family gatherings are typically not my forte. More specifically, gatherings of my family are not my forte. Any reason to have a party and off we go. Tonight was a baby shower combined with a costume party.
I have no idea where they got the idea from, but my cousin, Janey, and her husband Ri (as in Rye) are expecting their first baby in a couple of months. So everyone in the family was invited as well as their church. Thats usually not a bad thing except I always fall into the Giggle Loop whenever one of their pastors or deacons decide to talk. Its gotten to the point where I will stand outside to avoid the blessing of the food (aka the 30 minute speech).
Then, of course, there are the party games my family comes up with. Can you tell me what the frack this is?!
Of course, its chocolate that has been squished in a diaper. There were eight different diapers with different kinds of chocolate. The one that guessed the most won the game. Tasting was recommended.

I know this gives unnecessary attention to the stupidity that is PETA, but its funny how PETA is upset about a baseball player's love for SPAM. Not the email type; the pork shoulder kind.
The food stuff that has been around for generations. The kind that was given to soldiers during WWII. The kind that was given to me as a child growing up. And quite frankly I still like it.
So here are some kind words to PETA: Shut the fuck up.
