When my mind roams it makes me wonder if I am in need of medication.


---I truly do not understand how the Internet works. Computer geeks across the world shun me as i walk down the street. I believe I once had a hard drive thrown at my head in an attempt to upgrade my tech know-how. I just don't get it! How was it invented? Who owns it? How did it pick up steam? Where does all this shit go after I type it?

I'm sure I can find the answer to all these questions.....right on the Internet.

---So money is worth something because it is backed by gold. I don't even know if that's right! How can a person have two college degrees and not know why a dollar is worth...well a dollar. This is one of the reasons I would be the moron dad at the PTA. I just don't get it! Why the Hell is Gold worth anything? It's just a hunk of shiny metal. This makes as much sense to me as basing the worth of a dollar on how many four leaf clovers the government has. What can you do with a brick of gold? Money should be based on something that is more beneficial than helping you identify the Guido that stole your cheese balls.

---What did people do before the Q-Tip? Is it just me or do you ever look at a Q-Tip and think....this guy took a straw, glued some cotton to the ends and got paid! There are generations built on Q-Tip money. I dare you to come up with a simpler yet equally successful invention. This thing has made-for-TV movie written all over it.
