We Have a Problem

Some people enjoy being angry.

Not me.

Valentine's Day is rapidly approaching. If you plan on giving the perfect gift, you might want to shop early for chocolates--that way you can test out chocolate assortments from several manufacturers before making your selection. It's tough work, I know, but here, from Nielsen, is an example to get you started on your arduous, chocolate-tasting task.

Yesterday, we discussed the first step in building your house, which is purchasing an excavator and constructing a hole into which you can fit your domain. Planning, of course, is important, but some people prefer to plan their house after they've built it.

Excavators get lonely all by themselves, so you might want to think about adding some machinery to keep your new pet company. A pile driver would be a good investment, especially if you've decided to build your house in your neighbor's yard, or in a swamp.

Here's a nice pile driver from Hammer & Steel.

You can also use your new pile driver to teach your computer a lesson when it misbehaves. Simply place your naughty computer directly beneath the hammer, climb into the cab, and let the hammer drop. Your computer won't give you any more trouble.

By the way, if you decide to build your house in your neighbor's yard, you'll be forced to do a bit of demolition work, so don't sell off the shears and crushers you got for Christmas.

I'll bet you never realized building a house could be so much fun!

No worries.

Stop That UFO!

Aliens have been getting away with murder lately--abducting people at all hours of the night, making crop circles, stealing one sock from each pair of socks--who knows what evil lurks in their hearts!

Elvis knows. But he can't help us because he's incognito.

Here's a picture of, and a recipe for, Mexican chocolate ice cream from simplyrecipes.com. You won't get this on a UFO, so try not to be abducted by aliens before you sample it.

And for those of you who feel like building a large office tower or apartment building this afternoon, here, from Wikipedia, is a pile driver, which should get you started on the foundation work. You'll need to dig a large hole, of course, but that's a minor thing. Golfers do it all the time.

Finally, here's a nice looking chocolate cake from sugarcups.blogspot.com. This would help you pass the time while you're waiting for the aliens to abduct you. A cake I shall never see, unfortunately.

Oh ye'll take the high road....
