The Jap Knows...

.

Hey y'all!  Hugs, kisses, yada yada yada...


Y'all long time visitors to Andy's Place know that Black History Month African American History Month (formerly known as February) is an especially exciting time around Andy's Place.  

(Editorial note:  I did not know until yesterday that the name of Black History Month had been changed to African American History Month.  I heard Congressclown Sheila Jackson Lee call it that while she was bitching about some Super Bowl ad.  Jeepers, HOUSTON, YOU HAVE A PROBLEM!  But, I digress).


Yep!  This year has been a little bit different for a couple of reasons.  Reason numero uno is that I have been WAY busy, and have not really had time to give y'all our regular Black History Month African American History Month Updates.


Reason dos is that mean ol' Mr. Psoriasis decided to pass me by this year, thank you Jesus!  So, our regular "Psoriasis Updates" have not been necessary (BTW, web traffic has gone through the floor, due to the fact that I'm NOT posting pictures of my lovely Psoriasis-laden hand this African American History Month.  But, I'll take a drop in traffic gladly.  Again, I digress).  Also, for much of the month my fingers have been frozen, and typing is a cumbersome task.


I also forgot to ask y'all this year what I ought to get The Mrs. for St. Valentine's Day.  As y'all know, we normally go with some piece of cookware to replace the ones she has worn out over the past year.  But, I'm thinking something frivolous this year.  Maybe some socks.  We'll see.


Anyway, one of our most popular updates is our Japanese Magnolia Update.  If you have not seen my Japanese Magnolia, then go look at it.  Please be sure and note the date on the post, as there will be a test later.  I'll wait...


Okay, you're back.


Now, The Mrs. is quite the student, and observer of nature, and plants, trees, and junk like that.  And, for the last several years she has been verifying my suspicion that the planet Earth is getting colder and colder.  She has told me time and again that this, that, or the other is blooming later and later over the last 10 or so years.  


And, she has noted the fact that our fabulous Jap Mag is evidence.  I actually got into a discussion with a guy at work the other day about the retarded concept of global warming, and used our Jap Mag as an example.  He was all like, "Well, it may be true that we have had a later Spring here recently, but the overwhelming scientific evidence shows that the planet is indeed warming up."  And, he was like, "Your evidence is just anecdotal."


So, I was like, "Dude, anecdotal evidence is still evidence!  These flat-Earthers like you that deny just how dang cold it is can bite me.  The lying Brit "scientists," the money-hungry Al Gore, and the once great General Friggin' Electric can tell me all day that the sky is green, and the earth is flat.  But, I know better from my "anecdotal" experience.


And y'all always need to remember the words of the great Brit Pastor, Leonard Ravenhill.  "A man with an experience is never at the mercy of a man with an argument."


Okay, so where was I?  Oh yeah...


This here is our glorious Japanese Magnolia tree today, Black History Month African American History Month/12/2011.

Gorgeous, ain't it?

Here's you a little closer look at the buds that just a few years ago were bursted open with glorious magenta and pink blooms by now.

So THERE!

Obviously, the Earth is not getting warmer...and if you still swallow the swill that Doctor Al is selling for a billion dollars a bottle...well...I pity you.  


The Jap knows!


Let's see what else we got.  Oh, here's a good "People of WalMart" picture.  Actually, "pictures."

And another...

I think Dude on the left is queer.  And, the shoes the chef is wearing are Crocs, I think.


Gay.


And, another...

I'll tell y'all, some of the ugliest folks on this ever-cooling Earth show up at The WalMart.  I mean, I know it ain't Christian to pick on folks due to their appearance...but look at them toofers!  And, I think that gal is wearing a Barney The Dinosaur three dollar watch, too.


Well, now that we've settled any questions about the global warming ruse, and destroyed any doubt that Michelle is just plain classless, and ugly, we have some VERY good news.


It is supposed to be close to 70 degrees here in NW Louisiana tomorrow.  I plan to take my shoes off when I get home from work tomorrow afternoon, and let those pasty white peds see the light of day for the first time since African American History Month rolled around on the calendar...actually even longer than that.


I shall be sure to take photographs so that y'all can enjoy the glory of it all with me.


Don't bother to thank me.
