The Learning Curve

LARadio.com is not usually known as a funny site. Informative, yes, but funny? Maybe not.

Lately, though, they’ve been asking readers for their favorite jokes, and have had a couple of great ones. Here’s another:

When I was 14, I hoped that one day I would have a girlfriend.

When I was 16 I got a girlfriend, but there was no passion, so I decided I needed a passionate girl with a zest for life.

In college I dated a passionate girl, but she was too emotional. Everything was an emergency; she was a drama queen, cried all the time and threatened suicide. So I decided I needed a girl with stability.

When I was 25 I found a very stable girl but she was boring. She was totally predictable and never got excited about anything. Life became so dull that I decided that I needed a girl with some excitement.

When I was 28 I found an exciting girl, but I couldn’t keep up with her. She rushed from one thing to another, never settling on anything. She did mad impetuous things and made me miserable as often as happy. She was great fun initially and very energetic, but directionless. So I decided to find a girl with some real ambition.

When I turned 31, I found a smart ambitious girl with her feet planted firmly on the ground and married her. She was so ambitious that she divorced me and took everything I owned.

I am now older and wiser, and am looking for a girl with big tits.

Steve Westly and Phil Angelides are Not Friends

Remember when Steve Westly and Phil Angelides, the two main Democratic candidates for governor here in California, pledged to run clean, positive, campaigns? Seems like a long time ago, doesn’t it. Lately, you can’t tune into any form of media without one or the other slinging the slime. Westly is in the pocket of big business. Angelides is in the pocket of developers. Westly won’t stand up to Arnold. Angelides will tax you into the poor house. They even trade ads about who launched the negative ads first. And did you watch the two of them this weekend at the same service in the same South Central church? They couldn’t have looked any more out of place – or uncomfortable – than if they were wearing Klan hoods.

The whole time, current governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, a man whose own political missteps brought him down to Bush-like poll numbers, just sits back, lights one of his trademark stogies, and smiles …

Welcome to the MarlinBlog – Round Two

OK, if you’re reading this and wondering, “hey – why’s he writing another welcome message,” then I thank you for being an MNAC member who took the time to check out the MB during its first two weeks of existance. As I said in the original welcome, this is a relatively new technology that continues the mission of providing opportunities for the community to interact. Problem is, the feedback we received was lukewarm at best, with the inaccessability of being in the Member’s Section being at the head of the line. So we’re taking a mulligan and relaunching the MarlinBlog as part of the main site, visible to all.

For those of you making your first visit, I encourage you to read and participate. Even though you missed two weeks of scintillating commentary by yours truly, you can quickly catch up by using the “Archives” link to your right. We’ll talk more in the future about what this is and how it works, but for now, welcome to the MarlinBlog! :)
