“Tim Tebow’s Fire” by John Parr

If there is anything awesomer than this in 2012, I can’t imagine what it would be…

Failing as the Man of the House

My mom has always filled the role of the “man of the house.” That’s just who she was…instead of having a “honey do” list, she’d just do. The other week, while I was kibitzing to some of you fine folks on Twitter, there was a ruckus in the kitchen. My mom was sawing off the top of a metal wine rack just to make it fit in the cabinet better.

What my dad’s role was, which I’m finding out now, is that he would know who to call when something went wrong.

Boots to Asses: The Rock is My 2012 Life Coach

“All gas, fuck the brakes in 2012.” - The Rock

The Rock (I refuse to call him Dwayne Johnson), over the past year, has been using his social media network to share inspirational quotes and messages. Whether or not he’s coming up with them himself or stealing them from a calendar or fortune cookie generator…because I’d rather the smack not be layed down on my candy ass, we’ll just say they’re all The Rock originals.

All joking aside, they are really good, and as people look to the new year as a “clean slate” to make the changes you need to make in your life, I thought a few of these were worth sharing…

Chemtrails?
