Lizards do not live forever

Edit… I forgot the photo of Sparky hanging outside.
Our bearded dragon, Sparky, passed away sometime yesterday. She has been behaving oddly, and wouldn’t eat. Carrie had her for about 7 + years which is a good long life for a bearded dragon in captivity. I will miss her in an odd way. Being that she stayed in her tank all most all of the time, it’s not like she was cuddly. But she would stare at me, and give me her I AM MAD face. Plus she was fun to feed crickets, and Ryan enjoyed picking her dandelion flowers. This should be a hard blow for Ryan, being so young, if he asks we can say she left. The odd part was Carrie taking her from the tank and putting her in a plastic bag, luckily it was trash day. I check the City of Seattle gov site to find out what to do, and she fit the under 15 lbs throw away specs.
Well, that leaves 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 2 snakes. Oh and the boy.
Did Frank Sinatra sing a song about losing ones pet lizard? Or was that Tom Jones.
Good night Sparky, enjoy eating crickets and doing what ever Lizards do in Lizard heaven.

Louisiana Man Charged, wears skirts while Mowing
April 9th, 2008 by Kilted Eric
From keyetv.com
We may not know what a Scotsman wears under his kilt, but the town officials of Clinton, Louisiana, say what they see is too much.
Jay Herrod mows lawns in a skirt.
He says he wears the garment because he gets heat rash and “it allows that area to breathe and, uh, wearing a skirt on the mower allows the sweat to evaporate.”
Herrod’s landscaping customers aren’t complaining.
“He cuts the yard in a hurry. He does a good job,” Carline Kimbro says. “I don’t have any problems. That’s what I was interested in. I don’t pay attention to what he wears.”
But the town alderman in this northern Louisiana town do.
The municipal authorities have cited Herrod for indecency in violation of a “no sagging pants” ordinance. He says the rule shouldn’t apply to him because of his medical condition and has a doctor’s note to prove it.
“I’ve had some women say I have nice looking legs, “Herrod says with a laugh.”For a man, I know, I’m the only guy in East Feliciana Parish that wears a skirt. That’s a known fact.”
if you want to see the story on their site heres the link (there’s even a short movie!) CLICK
WHAT? No Saggy Pants? Hey Clinton, Louisiana Officials, get a clue! If your going to charge this man with anything charge him with public indecency not this bull crap of a charge!
Ok, I am a bit calmer now. Here’s the deal, whether I like it or not, a man in a skirt is fighting the battle against a society that says men should only wear pants. I feel this guy should be able to wear what he wants. Now, if he is being indecent, that’s one thing. But for them to use this silly law about no sagging pants (um fashion comes and goes people! And Gang members with just wear something else next week, deal with the bigger issues, schools, jobs, racism than some stupid reactionary Sagging Pants law)
If I wore underwear, they would be in a bind right now. Holy crap, this annoys me to no end.
HEY ANY MODERN KILT MAKERS FIND THIS GUY AND SEND HIM A KILT ON THE HOUSE!
The charge should fit the crime. This charge does not fit the crime.

I am in shape, roundish
April 9th, 2008 by Kilted Eric
I need to better my diet, but mostly I need to exercise more. I am getting thicker around the middle. Soon I will have to buy the Beergut cut Utilikilt.
What else can I say about that? Not much, just need to do it.

Ben over at Kiltme.com has been hard at work making kilts for himself. He’s up to 2 now, and I just love what he has done with the second kilt.
A box pleat kilt, but he worked in a tartan fabric on the inside pleats. Very sharp looking. You can see for your self here

I heart kilts. You all know this. I am a huge supporter of kilts in all forms. I support the traditional, and the modern kilt wearers alike. I almost never have anything bad to say about kilts. Until tonight.
Simply put, HEY MODERN KILT MAKERS WHY DO YOU MAKE EVERY G@% D@&$ KILT OUT OF COTTON FABRICS? Why? I love my Utilikilts. But my biggest gripe is the cotton. It rains in Seattle, and when cotton gets wet, you get cold. Simple math. 1 + 1 = Cold walk home.
I only have one wool tartan, I don’t wear it to work because it cost me $400 some odd bucks. Today would have been the best day to wear it. Rainy and cold. While walking home from school, I got soaked.
Super Soaked. Yuck. I need to either make my own “modern” kilt out of something NOT COTTON (but still warmish) or make a slip that is non cotton.
In closeing, We often complain about things we love, fatty foods, the goverment, my wife. I don;t love them any less. I just need to convince somebody of this.
Give me non-cotton or Give me….. well not death, thats pushing it, but how about a bad cold in the nose.
