Is it so wrong to just want to take my dog to a fucking off leash park and NOT encounter dogs off leash? Based on every walk today (4) it is a pipe dream. From some fucktard letting her 2 dogs loose at 7 Am to tards on the run every other time I went out with Grizzly. It is fucked up.

What the ... booking stupidity?
Justin Bieber was booed at during the Grey Cup half time show. Actually, the boos would erupt whenever his picture was shown on the screens according to the article. Of course he was booed. Most football fans aren't teen aged girls who love bieber.
The game was sold out before the half time line up was announced. Which means the tickets were not bought with the half time show acts being a concern. Did they really think the bulk of the adult male fans who were going would be Bieber fans? If they did they are fucking morons.Know your target audience and book accordingly.
I have to give Bieber credit for not letting the crowd get to him. It couldn't have been a pleasant experience but he didn't walk away from the challenge. I am not a fan of his music but you have to admire his perseverance.

Mook of the Week
You just can't escape mooks. Just when it looks like none are around one will rear their ugly head and fuck you around in some way. This morning is a good example.
When you get up at 3 or 5 AM for work 6 AM is sleeping in. What better way to start your weekend, Monday is my Friday, than a sunrise walk in the park with your dog? Grizz and I got there at 7 Am and there was NO ONE there. It was beautiful. The sunrise, walk, and the fact no one was there.
Of course, I should have known that wouldn't last. As we started down the main hill what happens? 2 Golden Retrievers start charging out of the brush. No human in sight. They weren't coming our way, yet, and were about 50 feet away. I made Grizzly sit and waited hoping the dogs would keep going.
No such luck. When the mook who brought them appeared she thought it was funny. One of the dogs noticed her looking our way and laughing. So it decided to start charging our way. That set Grizzly off. I told the mook to get her dog under control.
What did she reply? One of the standard dog mook comments. "Its ok. My dog is friendly."
I gave my standard reply to that. "Mine isn't. Get yours under control."
The bitch laughed and said she didn't have a leash. She did start calling the dog, which ignored her. At this point Grizzly was ready to throw down. Her dog stopped about 10 feet away then ran off. Smart dog. Stupid fucking owner.
I yelled at her "You loopy fucking cunt. You bring two dogs out to an ON LEASH park and don't even bring a leash. Fuck you are a moron." She muttered something and went off after the dogs. The dogs were almost out of sight at that point.
Her SUV was parked beside my car. I suppose she had no choice to park there considering how full the lot was with only my car there.
If you see a red Highlander with the plate DSW 424 beware it is being driven by a cunning stunt and mook of the Nth degree.

Foot in Motormouth Diease
Sarge saw Skyfall the weekend it opened. On the Monday he talked about it on the drop. As we talked about the Bond franchise Motormouth said "I have every Bond movie."
The topic turned to the various Bonds. Who was your favourite? As soon as someone mentioned Connery MM blurted out "He isn't British!"
I smirked, as did everyone else, and thought "Ha. Got you, you ignorant little prick. You are going to say he is English. Not British. He is Scottish AND British." That is pretty much what the others thought. None of us were ready for the direction Motormouth went in.
MM went on "Connery is American!".
There was a collective silence for a few seconds. We all tried wrapping our minds around what the moron had just said.
"No, he is not America." Several of us said at the same time.
"He is an American. I read it somewhere. It is a fact."
Sarge lost it "You fucking moron. Connery is British. Every Bond has been British.How fucking stupid are you?"
Motormouth went into defend the indefensible mode. "No. Connery is American. Bond doesn't have to be British."
A lot of things were said at that point about the stupidity that is Motormouth. I said "Motormouth, Connery is Scottish. And British. How teh fuck could you think he is a Yank?"
His reply was "Well, I never watched the early Bond movies." This from a person that had started off by bragging he had every Bond movie. Nor could he say just where he got this nugget of "fact" about Connery being American. Sarge summed it up best when he said "MM, you just have to talk even when you don't know what you are talking about. You make stuff up. This is why people think you are a fucking idiot."
Motormouth actually compunded his folly later. One of the guys, Mike, will sometimes sing Opera while working. Opera is not my favourite genre of music but Mike does have a good voice for it. I just zone it out. As we are finishing up Mike is joking around and singing Justin Bieber's song "boyfriend" badly. (Can Bieber be sung any other way?) After a bit I jokingly tell him he should stick to Opera.
Motormouth had to chime in. "Yeah Mike. Stick to The Tenors and Mussolini."
I looked at him and said "Mussolini?"
"Yeah, isn't he an Opera singer?" replied MM. Once again, it is hard to believe, but that is what MM believed.
"Mussolini was an Italian dictator and fascist who sided with the Nazis in WW2. You did go to school didn't you?"
"Oh, I must have mixed him up with someone else."
"Or you are just an idiot taht can't shut up when he doesn't know he is talking about." said Sarge.
At times I think of what Duffman said. Motormouth is either a comedic genious doing this deliberately for laughs and getting away with it. Or he is a moron. I believe it is the latter. He just wants to be in every conversation, even when it isn't his business, and just says whatever comes to mind to be part of it.

Motormouth motors on.
One day on the drop we (Sarge, Donny, and myself) started talking about a shooting that took place the night before. Sarge mentioned he lived just outside 'The Hood', which he does, and heard of a few that happened there.
I mentioned that I had heard a street was renamed because of a shooting. Sarge told me about what happened. A drive by shooting on Churchill Drive left a little girl, Roleika, dead. The street was renamed after her.
Motormouth felt he had to chime in. He started going on about the shooting and how it happened on Montebello Road. Sarge corrected him. It happened on Churchill.
No no no. Motormouth knows all or at least thinks he does. Most people when faced with reality would admit defeat. Not Motormouth. He just keeps digging. (Reminds me of some internet fucktards.)
Sarge ened up saying "You really know nothing MM. It happened on CHURCHILL drive. CHURCHILL was renamed ROLEIKA to honour the dead girl. If it happened on Montebello why the fuck would they rename Churchill?"
Motormouth still hemmed and hawed a bit. Tried some backpedaling. Then one of the deaf guys told him to shut the fuck up and work.

Mook of the Week
One of the reasons why Mook of the Week hasn't been around much is because I usually encounter them while driving and I don't take pictures while driving. Which brings me to my latest entry.
Stig was visiting for five days. We had a great time sadly it had to end and a Mook had to rear his ugly head.
We were driving to the airport. It was a very clear morning. 5:30 Am. No precipitation on the ground or in the air. Light cloud. The speed limit is 100 KPH. The mook in the lead is going between 65 and 75 KPH. What the hell?!?!?
The guy behind him, we were the 2nd car behind the mook, was frustrated. You could see him using his high beams. The only passing area available until you joined with the highway to the airport was short and of course traffic was coming in that lane so there was no window of opportunity to use it. A line of traffic was forming behind us.
Maybe the driver has problems driving at night. Whether a medical condition (night vision problems) or just plain nervousness. Regardless the solution is simple. DON'T FUCKING DRIVE AT NIGHT! You wonder why people lose their nut and do stupid things while driving? Assholes like this mook.
If I had been in a hurry I would have been more pissed off than I was. Suffice it to say that when the opportunity arose to pass the idiot I took it, held the position beside him, laid on the horn, then Stig and I both let the fucktard know we thought he was #1.
As we reached the speed limit, now 110 KPH, the fucktard quickly vanished. A long stream of cars were pointing back to his location like a giant glowing fuck finger. There must have been 12-15 cars that were stuck behind this mook.
I can only hope he goes to the LA freeways and drives like this. Or gets enough sense to stay the fuck off the roads.

What the ... gouging?!?!
According to the media oil prices will rise ... including gas and diesel prices ... because of hurricane Sandy. As far as I know New York and New Jersey are not, and have never been, oil producing states. So just how the hell are prices going up because Sandy hit them? It sounds like gouging as normal by the oil companies with the tacit approval of our Government.
