There are BILLIONS of barrels of oil right in the middle of the good ol U.S. of A. Billions I tell you! Shale Oil is the next big thing!!!!!111!1one

Talking about lying did you hear that congress doesn’t pay taxes, gets paid for the rest of their life even if they only serve one term, and that they feast on the dead but still warm bodies of puppies and kittens?! It’s true my uncle Sam’s friends cousins bosses gardener forwarded it to me, which means it must be true. I once read that the brand new (if 10 years ago is new) gold $1 coins don’t have “In God We Trust” on them. Wait I have one right here, nope there is no In God We Trust on the coin… Oh wait there it is on the fucking edge of the coin. See this is the problem with a large percentage of the general, they don’t really know what they are forwarding.

The unfortunate part is that many of the people who send these things are actually intelligent people, and I know they meant well when they forwarded along the message, but every person that reads this cutting edge information is another possible fish that might fall for the lies.

My real issue here is who is the idiot that first creates these false sensationalistic stories that tug on our heart-strings, hit on our religious beliefs, or social awareness. Was it really some smart person that thought they could pull a fast one on the me? Or is it some stupid bastard that thinks they can get the pitchforks and torches pulled on the targets of their deceit?

With great power comes great responsibility, and with the Internet it appears as though responsibility has got thrown out with the baby and bathwater.

Please think before you link, or forward.

Here is a list of websites that you can confirm facts on before forwarding along stories that could be deceiving or have misinformation.

Factcheck.Org
Snopes
Truth or Fiction
PolitiFact

By the way, Obama is a US citizen, Congress is held to the same laws as all citizens, the DreamAct would offer amnesty for illegals that join the military or has at least 2 years of college under their belt, AND if we all don’t buy gas one day it won’t do anything since we will buy gas another day… moron.

If you have a friend or family member that sends along emails or Facebook links to lies like those listed above, send them this email next time and maybe they will check their facts before they spread the lies.

So not much going on, I saw my friend Brian last week that I used to play Ultima Online with and we used to run the Pacific Roleplaying Community.  We hadn’t seen each other since I visited him 7 years ago, unfortunately it was only for a couple hours but it was great being able to hang out and talk, I missed that.  By the way he needs up update his blog, he’s a slacker.  I X-Men First Class a couple days ago and have officially declared it the best X-Men movie ever, it wasn’t perfect but it was a very solid 9, the two main actors were perfect for their roles and I really liked the story.  Last weekend we saw Super 8 and it was great as well, I have said this before and I will continue to say this, J.J. Abrams can do no wrong, he is the best in the business.  Other than that I am still working on finished a new smoker that I’m hoping to use for our 4th of July party,  I should have it finished tonight.  Our tomatoes are starting to ripen, and the peppers are starting to look great.  Not much else new here but I know some people appreciate it when share more than links.  Looking forward to Green Lantern but I don’t think it will be able to live up the how good XMFC was.

And now onto the cool stuff.

These are the cool things I found around the web for June 1st through June 14th:

Here are the upcoming 2011-2012 Network Season shows I’m planning on checking out.

Upcoming shows on NBC, I’m planning to check out.

Up All Night
Looks like it could be a winner, and with Lorne Micheals involved I’m sure it will be well taken care of by NBC.

Whitney
Don’t really know who Whitney Cummings is, but the preview looks promising has some really funny moments and lines, just hope those aren’t the only ones. Totally obvious laugh tracks scare me today though…

Grimm
Cool freaky stuff always gets me interested. Sort of like a Buffy/Angel show with fairy tales. No wonder the executive producers were from those shows…

Awake
Guy lives in two worlds after an accident, one where his wife died and kid lived, and one where his kid died, and his wife lived. Could be interesting, but I’m sure it will be canceled because it will be to difficult for people to follow.

Upcoming Shows on ABC
First a couple takes on shows I’m not planning on watching. But honestly most of their new stuff looks pretty bleh.

Work It…
This was done in the early 80s and was called Bosom Buddies, we don’t need it again.

Pan Am
I see that all the networks are trying to find a show equal to Mad Men, I might watch this since it sounds interesting, but really seems like a copy cat.

What I will be checking out on ABC, with much skepticism…

Apartment 23
I’ll check it out because of James Van Der Beek is playing himself and I want to see how that turns out.

Once Upon a Time
Producers from Lost involved, I’ll take a look. But we will see…

CBS Upcoming Shows

Person of Interest
Michael Emerson… Need I really say more? But it’s not my typical show to watch.

2 Broke Girls
Kat Dennings… Other than that eh, we will see.

The CW Upcoming Shows.
Um, nope, sorry, there is nothing worth watching on the CW anymore.

Here is a list of what I’m looking forward to returning next season.

Community
Big Bang Theory
The Middle
Modern Family
How I Met Your Mother
The Office
Happy Endings
Fringe
Glee
Chuck
Raising Hope
Burn Notice and Eureka, but they are Summer shows that should be starting back up very soon.

RIP to these shows that died too soon.

Traffic Light
Perfect Couples
Mad Love

Matt Kemp Kills Baseballs!

Hey!  It’s Dan of the Garion clan.  How about that Matt Kemp?  He’s been killing the ball.  So my wife Kelly said my blog has been boring since all I post nowadays are links…  Is that true?  Are my links boring, would you rather hear me talk about the Next Great Dancing Crew?  I mean I know I can be funny when I don’t try at all, but can I be entertaining, especially in a world where people watch crap like Pregnant in Heels, Glamour Bells, and Playdates (yes these are all really TV shows, on REAL TV).  WHO THE HELL WATCHES THIS STUFF.  I mean it’s one thing to make fun of it, which is why I religiously watch The Soup (well and that Joel McHale is awesome), but really who watches this type of shit? This will be the only blog that someone says the word shit and then starts talking about Easter.

It’s Easter this Sunday, and I for one welcome our Zombie Jesus overlords.  I’m happy I can get back to swigging soda and chowing down on chocolate now that Kelly no longer has the obligation to give up something she likes for Lent.  Other than that there really isn’t much going on.  The onions in the back yard are just about ready to get cured, we got a citrus tree that seems to be doing well, I fixed the grout in the master bathroom and Kelly is just about done with painting the shelf that our awesome neighbor made for us in the spare bedroom.  Next up we are getting the HUGE birds of paradise plants in the front yard removed and we might be getting sprinklers installed in the front yard as well.

Lastly for those that really know us, be on the lookout for information about our 3rd Annual Fourth of July Party!  Now it’s time for! DUN DUN DUN!
