A Serious Maggotx Blog Post

For the last few years a Friend of ours, Alan Sweeton, had been suffering pains and headaches. After a Tournament last year he was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor. Below is a Video Produced by Kevin McGorry of Disc Golf Monthly and narrated by Cubby, a good friend and fellow Disc Golfer. Please watch this Video. In spite of all he went through Alan was determined to continue playing the sport he so loves. It helps to put life in perspective and shows how much we have to be thankful for......

Mixed Bag Blog Post

Several Items piqued my interest today.....The Most Important was the Product Warning below:

Hit toy Zhu Zhu hamsters called unsafe

The maker of the robotic hamsters, Zhu Zhu Pets, defended its product over the weekend against a study by the San Francisco-based group, GoodGuide, after it said it found higher-than-allowed levels of the chemical antimony in some toys.

Good Guide assigned low ratings to the Zhu Zhu Pets hamsters, one of the top-selling toys, after finding antimony, which can cause health problems, on the hair and nose of one of the toy hamsters, called Mr. Squiggles.



When first when I saw this I knew I had to post it immediately.....especially since I don't want eeeerrrraaahhhhMahhhkkkk...to get Antimony Poisoning .....Quick get some Bloodwork done Dude.....God only knows how many of these little Hamsters he's got around....Poor Mr. Squiggles...!!!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Second Post is this Video from the Florida State Game........One has to wonder what was going through this Lineman's Head...



And Lastly....how about some Tiger Woods Jokes...????


  • The police asked Tiger's wife how many times she hit him. "I can't remember," Elin said, "just put me down for a 5."
  • Ping has a new set of irons called Elins. They're clubs you can beat Tiger with.
  • What does Tiger Woods have in common with a baby seal? They've both been clubbed by a Norwegian.
  • I heard Tiger likes his Women like his golf balls, White and with Dimples
  • Did you hear Tiger changed his name to Cheetah?
  • Tiger's other women aren't misstresses. They're provisionals.
  • Did you hear Nike's new motto? Just do me.

OK.....More great news for the World .....Now Vodka can be made into a pill....

As a follow up to the Moscow Cannibals a few posts ago......The creative Ruskies are at it again...since they never seem to get enough to drink.....and since they can't bring their Vodka everywhere they go....why not make it into powder form.....and then why not Cognac, Rum....the possibilities are endless.....Fresh from Pravda......I bring you:


Now Vodka Can Be Consumed as Food

Yevgeny Moskalev, a resident of Saint Petersburg, invented a technique that allows turning alcohol into powder. The good news is that the new technique allows doing it to any kind of alcohol, including whisky, cognac, wine and beer.

Yevgeny Moskalev, professor of Saint Petersburg Technological University, had his own reasons for the invention. In Soviet times, the scientist used to work for the defense industry and during perestroika he had to start freelancing.

The technology was tested on 96% spirit, and the know-how was patented. Moskalev learned to “can” ethanol drops into capsules. He does it by adding alcohol into melted wax in the process of mixing. Then the solution is dissipated, drops of wax harden and retain spirit molecules inside. This is how the idea of the experiment with Russian favorite drink was born. The powder version of vodka became popular since it was easier to carry and harder to break. “Dry” vodka can be wrapped in paper and carried around in a pocket or a bag. Vodka in a form of a pill would come handy at partiers when “consumers” would be able to calculate their exact required dosage. Yet, no vodka pills should be expected in near future.

“Unfortunately, spirit can be only retained in capsules made of stearic acid, so powdered vodka tastes like a candle. Generally, an unpleasant taste could be easily removed with flavoring agents. To be honest, I did not like vodka in pills. It is much better to eat it with a dessert spoon, although you can’t eat more than three or four spoons and the effect is weak. So, vodka is best consumed the old way,” the scientist explained.

Moskalev himself prefers the classic scheme – a shot glass and a pickle to chase it with. Yet, he understands that powdered alcohol could be interesting for bakers who have to use it for baked goods and ice cream all the time. The method can be also favored by pharmacists because it allows getting the exact dosage.

Hey Wa....!! Another Reason to Be a Vegetarian...!!!!!

'Butchered man used for kebabs'



SUSPECTED cannibals killed a young man, ATE part of him and then sold other bits to a KEBAB house.

Cops also believe the 25-year-old victim's body parts may have been used to fill PIES too.

The trio of homeless men were arrested in Russia - accused of murdering the man with knives and a hammer.

Prosecutors revealed: "After carrying out the crime, the corpse was divided up - part of it was eaten and part of it was sold to a kiosk selling kebabs and pies."

Suspicions were raised when dismembered parts of a human body were found near a bus stop in the outskirts of the Russian city of Perm - which is 720 miles east of Moscow.

Chopped up

The three men all have criminal records, said Russian cops.

They have been arrested on suspicion of killing their victim - who has not been named - before chopping up his corpse to eat.

Jeanette Anne Dimech.....Sweet Voice ..Awesome sounds ...back in the 70"s- 80"s

Our avid Blog Reader Jose M.... brought back to our memories Jeanette....here is some of her Bio and older Vids.....I know Pete and eeeerrrahhhMahhhk ....and maybe Vinnman will dig this....Let me Know...Hey Pete Before Ivy......there was Janette ...Listen to the videos...,....what do you think......Give them Credit....some of the modern day Lounge/Trip Hop Music originators.....This Music Rocks....




Dimech is the daughter of a Belgian-Congolese father and a Spanish mother. Her mother is originally from the Canary Islands.

Because of her grandparents' import-export business, she lived with her parents first in London, where she was born; and later in Chicago and La Habra, California, where she grew up. After her parents' separation at age 12, she moved to Barcelona with her mother and younger brother and sister. Having grown up in the United States, Dimech initially spoke only English when she first moved to Spain. She was placed in an American school at first, but later befriended some local Spanish children who helped teach her Spanish.

During the 1960s she learned to play guitar and began to write her own songs. She styled her music after American folk music, and her idols included Bob Dylan, Donovan, and the Byrds. Later she joined the student band Pic-Nic as a singer, who in 1969 had a measure of success with a folk version of the Spanish children's song "Cállate niña". Other notable songs of theirs included "Amanecer" and "No digas nada".



After the band split up at the end of the 1960s, she moved to Vienna with her husband, a Hungarian football player named Laszlo Kristof. At the start of the 1970s, she began her solo career with her hit first single, "Soy rebelde" (I am a rebel). On the single, the record label misspelled her name as "Jeanette" (the correct spelling is Janette without the first E.) Ever since then, her stage name has been spelled with the additional E. The single first enjoyed success in Spanish-speaking countries, and later broadened its influence with French and English versions. This song and others penned by Manuel Alejandro, such as "El muchacho de los ojos tristes" and "Estoy triste" established her as an artist in Spain.

In 1981 she recorded another record: "Corazón de Poeta" which was composed, arranged and conducted by Manuel Alejandro, that gave her three hit singles: "Corazón de Poeta", "Frente a frente" & "Un día es un día".

OMG...Only The TRENTONIAN...could be...... so.......so .....Colorful...?????


THIS IS THEIR HEADLINE....TRUE STORY...........

.....ME....I THINK HE SHOULD BE "YANKED OF THE STREET".....



FALLS TOWNSHIP, Pa. — The arrest of a Morrisville man on Oct. 16 for allegedly exposing himself to two women and masturbating caused police here to stop and think and remember other similar incidents.

And yesterday, Falls police announced that Michael A. Parziale, 33, is being charged as the apparent serial masturbator who has accosted women in cars four times this month — three times at the Oxford Valley Shopping Center and once outside Giant Cleaners on West Trenton Avenue in Morrisville.

In addition, police said Parziale was also arrested on similar charges this week in Hamilton Township, N.J., where he once lived, and was released on bail. Details of that arrest were not available last night.

Falls police first arrested Parziale, 33, on Oct. 16 after he allegedly “parked his silver 1998 Saturn with N.J. registration next to two female victims” at the Petsmart store at the Court of Oxford Valley Shopping Center “and began putting his hands down his pants, exposed his genitals and masturbated,” Lt. Ron MacPherson reported.

The victims later identified him after he was detained by police. Parziale was booked into Bucks County Prison, but was released on $10,000 bail.

Investigators then learned that similar indecent exposure cases had been occurring with the same vehicle and subject descriptions, all between 8 and 10:20 p.m., MacPherson reported.

On Oct. 13, a man driving a silver Saturn pulled up alongside a woman at Giant Cleaners on West Trenton Avenue in Morrisville and exposed himself and masturbated.

“The victim called police, and the male fled in his vehicle,” MacPherson said.

The next day, back at Court of Oxford Valley, a woman parked at the Old Navy store “when a male in a silver Saturn began staring at her. She moved her vehicle to another parking spot, and the male moved his vehicle right next to her,” MacPherson said.

“The male then began exposing his genitals and masturbating. He drove away when he saw the female on her cell phone.”

A half-hour later, the silver Saturn was back at Old Navy for another incident. This time the female victim walked back into the store and the male left.

“On Oct. 19, Parziale responded to Falls Township Police headquarters” and “admitted to the previous incident exposures on Oct. 13 and the two on Oct. 14,” MacPherson said.

The Lost Symbol......


For Maggotx's Birthday, Mrs. X gave him a copy of Dan Brown's new Book "The Lost Symbol". The book is excellent, moves real fast, easy read and since it deals with Washington DC and the Freemasons...(rather than Paris or Rome from previous books) it is a bit more familiar. Here is a Link to the National Geographic page showing pics from the locations mentioned in the Book. definitely a Fun book to read... recommended by Maggotx.....

WHAT.....ARE YOU KIDDING ME !!....DID THE MAYANS CHANGE THEIR MIND......REAL STORY....

World Won't End in 2012, Mayans Insist


For the Mayans, Dec. 21, 2012 marks what one scholar calls "a special anniversary of creation." New Age pundits have taken this to mean the end of the world. But most Mayans, including tribal elder Apolinario Chile Pixtun, above, dismiss the idea as nonsense.

Definitely not, the Mayan Indian elder insists. "I came back from England last year and, man, they had me fed up with this stuff."

It can only get worse for him. Next month Hollywood's "2012" opens in cinemas, featuring earthquakes, meteor showers and a tsunami dumping an aircraft carrier on the White House.
At Cornell University, Ann Martin, who runs the "Curious? Ask an Astronomer" Web site, says people are scared.

"It's too bad that we're getting e-mails from fourth-graders who are saying that they're too young to die," Martin said. "We had a mother of two young children who was afraid she wouldn't live to see them grow up."

Chile Pixtun, a Guatemalan, says the doomsday theories spring from Western, not Mayan ideas.
A significant time period for the Mayas does end on the date, and enthusiasts have found a series of astronomical alignments they say coincide in 2012, including one that happens roughly only once every 25,800 years.

But most archaeologists, astronomers and Maya say the only thing likely to hit Earth is a meteor shower of New Age philosophy, pop astronomy, Internet doomsday rumors and TV specials such as one on the History Channel which mixes "predictions" from Nostradamus and the Mayas and asks: "Is 2012 the year the cosmic clock finally winds down to zero days, zero hope?"
It may sound all too much like other doomsday scenarios of recent decades — the 1987 Harmonic Convergence, the Jupiter Effect or "Planet X." But this one has some grains of archaeological basis.

One of them is Monument Six.

Found at an obscure ruin in southern Mexico during highway construction in the 1960s, the stone tablet almost didn't survive; the site was largely paved over and parts of the tablet were looted.

It's unique in that the remaining parts contain the equivalent of the date 2012. The inscription describes something that is supposed to occur in 2012 involving Bolon Yokte, a mysterious Mayan god associated with both war and creation.

However — shades of Indiana Jones — erosion and a crack in the stone make the end of the passage almost illegible.

Archaeologist Guillermo Bernal of Mexico's National Autonomous University interprets the last eroded glyphs as maybe saying, "He will descend from the sky." Spooky, perhaps, but Bernal notes there are other inscriptions at Mayan sites for dates far beyond 2012.

"If I went to some Mayan-speaking communities and asked people what is going to happen in 2012, they wouldn't have any idea," said Jose Huchim, a Yucatan Mayan archaeologist. "That the world is going to end? They wouldn't believe you. We have real concerns these days, like rain."

OK...We've all heard every Lame Excuse....such as...

Hey...I'm Sorry But The Dog Ate My Homework....

I'm Sorry BUT I failed to turn in an assignment via e-mail because my neighbors, from whom I was stealing a wi-fi signal, moved out.



BUT THE STUPIDEST THING I EVER HEARD.......................MY CAT DOWNLOADED MY PORN...!!!!!

Of all the ridiculous alibis we've ever written about on Dumb as a Blog, the one used by Keith R. Griffin (pictured) is by far and away the most preposterous.


Sheriff's Deputies in Martin County, FL, say they found over 1,000 images of child pornography on Griffin's home computer. Griffin's excuse? His cat downloaded the images while Griffin was out of the house.

If true, Griffin, 48, owns the cleverest yet most disturbed tabby in the world.

Griffin allegedly admitted that he "enjoyed" looking at a variety of pornographic images. So his cat knew its master.In his defense, Mr. Griffin told detectives "he would leave his computer on and his cat would jump on the keyboard. And when he returned there will be strange material downloaded."

He is jail, with bail set at a quarter million dollars. His cat roams free.

______________________________________________________________

What I don't Understand is This.....

Why would a cat look at child pornography?

Why not cat pornography? ...
Kitty-Porn...That's what my cat looks at.

Maggotx Returns to NJ from Kansas City Disc Golf

After a week at the PDGA Worlds Disc Golf Championships I returned to scenic NJ and it's traffic and odors....anyway; here is a summary of my last week in KC.

Day 1 .....see previous post....

Day2 After the storm on Monday, the weather only got worse....it poured ALL DAY LONG for the entire first round at Rosedale Park in Kansas..I was not able to appreciate a Nice DG Course

Rosedale park

I shot a very poor 72 in the rain....the second round scheduled for Rosedale Down Under, an adjacent course was postponed until Wednesday due to treacherous conditions.....

Day 3- Now I see why they postponed the second round the previous day... You risk life and limb to play this course....It is downhill from Rosedale and in deep woods, there are steep slopes with large rocks that the rain had made extremely slippery and tons of wety clay.tight fairways, tons of trees...rumor has it there were several injuries and some players dropped out....This course was an embarrassment for the PDGA to put in a World Championship....on several holes you actually had to use ropes to pull yourself up the hill to the basket..!!!!...Shot a 63 and a 57.......Playing 2 rounds in this mess was GRUELING to say the least...here is a typical hole....


After Dicg Golf Mrs X and I went to the Fly Mart for some disc and equipment purchases and signatures by the notable Pro's .......here is a copy of the signatures on a Special Edition 20th Year Commemorative Roc...


Day 4 - Gorgeous Day....1 Round scheduled for Cliff Drive......Nice Course....good mix of woods and open holes....some really neat cliff shots....played fairly well...until the end when I fell apart on one hole with 2 OB's and scored a 7....ended up shooting a 72 to match my first day ...I also lost my Quarter K II....not a good day....had Vietnamese Food for Dinner....

Cliff Drive...After Cliff Drive went to dinner at the Legendary Fiorella's Jack Stack Barbecue....Since 1957 the Fiorella family has been serving up gourmet hickory wood cookery. Highest rated Kansas City BBQ according to the Zagat Survey Fiorella's Jack Stack BBQ has become a Kansas City tradition.
Maggotx's Mixed Sampler....BBQ Chicken, Ribs, Beef Burnt Ends, BBQ Kielbasi Baked Beans and Cheesy Corn Casserole.... a Jack Stack specialty....Awesome....

Day 5 - Played 2 Rounds at Pleasant Hills a beautiful open type DG course. A par 3 course...this one played to my strengths on approaches and putt accuracy vs long drives... I shot a nice 56 followed by a great 55 bringing me up a ton of spots on the board. I ended up placing #50 out of 72.....not as good as I had hoped.....but not too shabby....It was nice ending on a good note with good scores....

Pleasant Hills Disc Golf Course.....sweet...

The Crew from the Last Round..Lucky 13..Mark, Craig, Steve and Maggotx

On Saturday Mrs X and I spent a day to ourselves checking out KC stopping at City Market and the Westwood District....A really nice scenic town...

Mrs X and a Pet Iguana....YUK....

KC at Night.....

On Sunday we drove to a Redneck town in Eastern Ohio at the West Virginia Border...The next day we travelled to NJ.....all in all we had a Great time....played with some really nice people (mostly) and played at some challenging courses......A trip to remember.....

Kansas City Disc Golf World's Trip & Day 1

Mrs X and Maggotx left NJ on Sat before dawn.... we drove 13 hours straight and spent the night in Effinham, Illinois.....nestled between Teutopolis and Funkhouser.....If you think I'm joking check out the link below....

We woke up early,, and after several more hours passed through beautiful St. Louis Mo.


After driving through a never ending landscape of Cows, Corn and Clouds... after a total of 1,200 miles we finally arrived in Kansas City, Mo.

We checked in at the Awesome Embassy Suites and secured our reservation....here is a view of the Atrium from our Hotel Room front door.......

After checking in we were driven by the hotel courtesy van to the Westin Crown Plaza, site of the Disc Golf World's events...I registered and received a Fantastic player's package....

Picture of the logo from the HD Hotel monitor....

Maggotx after registration

PDGA Worlds 2009 Players Package...!!!!

After a Bar Lounge Dinner and a Crazy Cool....LEGO Art Display....(see Below)

we attended the player's meeting .....all the Big Name Open Players and Am's were present....over 900 players.....when we left the meeting, a HUGE storm ripped through Kansas City......with rain in the forecast the fields are expected to be a mess for the start date tomorrow...I have 2 games tomorrow, one at 11:00 am and one at 3:00 pm.

..will keep you posted of Maggotx's Excellent Disc Golf Adventure......
