The Most Interesting Man in the World
June 30th, 2010Who is the real Most Interesting Man in the World? Could it possibly be Mr. Bump? He has been known to have negotiated multi-billion dollar deals on Park Place and Boardwalk. Some people refer to him as the "doer", he just doesn't say he is going to do something, he actually does it. He has been seen dining with some of the most beautiful women in the world like his daughter. When confronted with a crisis he immediately takes charge unlike our president. He will always "keep you posted". He can cook a hamburger and make sun tea all by himself. He can even make fart noises with his right hand under his arm pit. He never shops at Walmart even though he owns Walmart stock. When he was a child he learned how to swim in the family backyard sprinkler. Even as a young adult he was able to master the art of negotiating his way down a busy sidewalk. Mr. Bump does not claim to be a doctor or lawyer, neither does he play one on TV. Mr. Bump is truly the Most Interesting Man in the World.

2010 High Gas Prices? Where is the Media Outrage?
April 15th, 2010Once again gas prices are climbing near or above the $3 mark. Where is all the outrage? Water cooler, no outrage... check, pumping gas, no outrage... check, newspapers, media, congress-critters, no outrage... check. Hum, I wonder why... the silence???
If I recall when George W Bush was our president and prices were about the same, there was non-stop media coverage about the high gas prices. You couldn't pump gas without noticing others shaking their heads at the pump. You couldn't even tap the water cooler at the office without the subject of high gas prices coming up in conversation. Even our congress-critters where shown non-stop on TV demanding lower prices. So what is different this time?
The difference now is that the media is covering for our dear leader Obama. You see, dear leader gets a pass on everything from the liberal media including... yes high gas prices. That is the difference IMO.
Mr Bump Snowboarding at Seven Springs Ski Resort, PA
March 1st, 2010My daughter and I just got back from our annual snowboarding trip to Seven Springs Ski Resort, in Seven Springs, PA and let me tell you we had a really good time. The snow was incredible with over 2 feet of snow in a 3 day period.
The picture of above is my daughter making snow angles while resting from the awesome down hill boarding.
I made a few videos that you can watch if you want to which I uploaded to youtube. I will post the links below. These videos are fun to watch if you like the snow life. All videos are on youtube and open in a new window.

Baltimore Blizzard 2010 February 9th & 10th
February 10th, 2010Our second blizzard and snowiest winter this year breaks our record snow fall in Baltimore, MD which was previously 62.5 inches in Baltimore in 1995-96, and 54.4 inches in Washington in 1898-99. As of Wednesday afternoon, Baltimore had 72.3 inches so far this winter which beaks the all time snowiest winter record. Blizzard video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VcPEjdLZtM
Snowmans NOT, we are talking Igloos, we have so much snow you can tunnel your way all around your yard how cool is that? The only problem is shoveling out your vehicles, we have had back to back blizzards with over 2 feet each within one week and let me tell you shoveling isn't just shovel and throw, it's more like shovel and carry, then throw, because there is nowhere to throw it, so you have to carrry it to a new pile. Pretty crazy weather but hey, love driving in it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCbM9Ov6oQ8
Snow on the Ground, Snow on the Ground
February 5th, 2010Baltimore is bracing for another big snowstorm with 1 to 2 feet of snow expected. Could be a history making snowstorm which should rank in the top 5 all time snowstorms to hit the baltimore area.
Here are the lyrics to my snow version of hit song "Pants on the ground" by Larry Platt on American Idol.
Snow on the ground
Snow on the ground
Lookin' like a fool drivin' sideways through the town
Drivin' real fast
Car spinning round
Snow on the ground
Call yourself a cool cat
Lookin' like a fool
Drivin' sideways with the snow on the ground
Car in a ditch, hey!
Get the snow off the ground
Looking like a fool
Drivin' sideways with the snow on the ground
Car in a ditch, hey!
Get the snow off the ground
Lookin' like a fool
Drivin' sideways with the snow on the ground
