Imagine picking up the telephone fifteen times a day and there’s no one on the other side; that’s what I do on an every day occurrence and it isn’t funny anymore. I’m a member of IMDB and I recommend that if you’re in the industry that you join. However that’s not what I’m writing about today in today’s blog.
I’ve had a few and another hypothesis of why my ears ring is that when I had all my teeth pulled out, about five years so much as I can remember, but I have had molars pulled every year for years; isn’t it possible that the jarring of the scull can effect this in some way and that because I have numbed the jaw with alcohol and the sound goes away instead of a shot of Novocain into the eardrum which only lasts for as long as the drug (not a cure) that alcohol can be used as a form of stimuli to the brain and the ringing in the ears will go away if used in the correct way; maybe a patch under the denchers with a high amount of the stuff so it soaks in but the person doesn't get drunk.
I think that I am onto something here and want to write to the American Journal of Medicine but how can one explain to them that you should treat an ailment with booze. For one, I do not recommend that anyone take up drinking the alcohol. I personally would spit it out since I don’t drink, EVER. I stopped drinking several years ago after becoming an alcoholic. Its dangerous stuff and for adults only, however if it’s a cure for tinnitus then I’m all for it.
Next, how would you deal with kids? You certainly wouldn’t want them to say that they hear ringing and therefore give them a bottle of Jack and say “don’t swallow”. That would give them a foul stool, a bad case of the blues; not to mention a really bad law suit for mom and dad.
Seriously, I haven’t even talked to my Doctor about this but intend to do just that. I actually have two to three doctors right now, depending on how you look at things, so I am trying to decide which one to talk to. I could talk to my spine doctor and I’m sure he’ll take a look. I can talk to my family doctor too. Finally I can talk to the hearing specialist who is the one who catches my ear, so to speak, since he’s an ears-noses and throat doctor but they all would make an enormous bill making it impossible for me to hear what’s coming out of any of their mouths for the rest of my life.
I could talk to any one of them and run up a bill but instead I think I will just sit home and dream; dream of a head that doesn’t ring, doesn’t ring to the sound of so many songs.

Dion Cole

Wally Mart
One of my greatest times of the month is going to the store in which you can find just about everything that one might need for your home, your garage or your yard. I talking about Wal-Mart and we have one about twenty minutes away. Our’s is in Van Wert next to Pet Co. and a really bitchen Chinese place so after spending a shitload of money that we didn’t have in the first place we can always go visit the puppies and then sit down for some really good food.
The reason for going to Wally Mart is simple; low low prices and quantity shopping. I mean it’s not like we’re going to a bargain basement or anything but you always manage to find a pretty good deal on just about anything that you’re looking for at a pretty good price and the people that work there are pretty cool too.
Don’t even get me started on Lowe’s because the people that work there are idiots. They couldn’t find a one inch nail if you drew them a picture and gave them the scu number. Now the ladies that work the registers are ok so I wont rag on them but the rest of the staff are about as smart as dirt clods. I digress
My wife and I go to Wal-Mart probably twice a month, sometimes less, to pick up supplies for the house and when I say supplies I mean SUPPLIES! Everything from water to toilet paper and paper towels, we buy allot of stuff when we go to Wally Mart. We also have our secret recipe things that we pick up while we’re there and while I can’t tell you what they or it is, I can tell you that I can now make….. oh shit my wife is hitting me in the arm right now telling me that she’ll cut off my right one if I give out the secret.
(Taco-Bell Tacos “For Real”)
The corporation is ran by Lee Scott, CEO and probably other titles that I’m unaware of but this guy really knows how to run the show and since coming aboard has transformed Wal-Mart into a prosperous company that gives millions to the needy and billions to his employees in the way of compensation. He doesn’t have to but he just does. That’s what has made this company so successful in today’s market and the boneheads that don’t understand it are just plain stupid.
It’s quite simple; take an impoverished area and build a Wally mart. Employ about 1500 people at around $12.50 an hour (not including benefits) now while the take home pay is a little higher than let say McDonalds the person that works there can go our and buy their own health insurance IF they want to OR they can use the insurance of their spouse which some people have. For the young people, like 18yrlds, most of them live at home and need to learn what health insurance is anyway.
Then there are other employees that are full timer’s and they do have benefits. Although their bring home pay is much lower than the part-timer’s it’s because they are hired in at a lower rate of pay. There’s no way to pay someone 12.50 an hour AND give them benefits and make a profit in today’s market; there’s just no way. Watch Lee’s interview today on Neil Cavuto on Fox News to get the real inside scoop on this.
I am just telling you the way it is in the real world and it’s the plain truth. Kids today have to learn how to grow up. They need to learn how to choose which insurance company is best for them, not what company the company they work for should choose for them. Insurance is a gratuity not a right.
My wife works for a huge bank here in Ohio and without insurance we would be screwed. However, her employer offers the employees insurance “IN LIEU OF” pay. That means they have to forfeit part of their paychecks to receive this benefit, it’s not free. People always think that insurance is something that companies give you for free but they don’t; it costs you part of your paycheck.
I owned my company Corwin Electric for fourteen years and I didn’t offer insurance to anyone. What I did offer however was $12 to $25 an hour to the people that worked for me because not only wee they worth it but because if they wanted health insurance they could go out and buy it with that high of wages. It’s that simple. And even if I was paying minimum wages, and I never did, I would have only done so for a ditch digger for a day laborer and that’s it, just a one day guy. However I paid those guys $12 an hour too; digging a ditch is hard frigging work.
For all he’s doing I’ll continue to shop there. One of the things that I bought that I’m getting ready to use right now that I bought at Wal-Mart is my Shop-Vac. This baby could suck the hair off of a bald headed toupee salesman that isn’t wearing one. It cleans everything that I put it to test to and even things that I don’t ask it to. I’m not sure what that means but it works great.

More on Idol Trouble
In further investigation I have found that there is a website that I am NOT going to post at my blog to perpetuate the on going problem of voting for the worst singer therefore messing up what used to be my wife’s program called American Idol.
So it seems a bunch of degenerates have gotten together to see if they can vote for the worst singer possible and therefore screw up the odds of the better singers just as they did last year and voted in the gray haired crooner called Taylor Hicks. This guy’s records sales are so bad that even William Hung has sold more CDs than him.
Speaking of Taylor Hicks; Hicks seems to think that his style of music is just what America want to hear and I’m sorry old bean but your style went out with Billy Joel and “The Boss” Personally I hated The Boss (Bruce Springsteen) and other crappy – sappy songs like Freebird too. Hicks was and still is nothing but a lounge singer and the judges tried only to save face for the people of the country to try and let other’s know that we’re all not stupid.
But this is an orchestrated plan to make everyone in the country look stupid and if this isn’t just clear evidence of one more time than I don’t know what is. Simon Cowell has said in plenty of forums that if a “certain someone wins”, and we all he’s talking about Senjyahya, that he will not be returning next season.
In my opinion he is the Executive Producer of the show and he change the rules if wants to. Why not come up with a new system that makes it that to vote you have to be a member of the American Idol website, you have to log on to vote and you have only one vote PER PERSON.
OR. Everyone can call on the telephone but a computer checks the number and/or IP address that it’s coming from and limits it to ONE VOTE per call. No more calling in over and over as many times as you want and we can let the best man or woman win, not some little dweeb with a planted crying girl in the audience. They may not be able to say that “Thirty Million People Called in to Vote” but who cares!!! It’s just a TV show and people will still watch. It still gets a 9 point rating in the ratings, that’s killer; that’s better than the President gets on most of his speeches.
(In layman’s terms: 9% of all TV’s on are watching American Idol rather than anything else when it’s on, I’d say that’s pretty good)
So the conclusion is simple, loose the automated programs that doing all of this bogus voting or we loose a pretty nice show that started out to give talented people a chance to make it in the world like Kelly Clarkston and a few others. Once it got to Ruben Studdard I even though to myself, being a guy that weighed in at 385 pounds, who the hell aspires to be that large no matter how good your voice is. And then we got into the Disney boy and little girls thinking he was so cute; HEY! The kid from Texas was far cuter and it was not America’s choice at all. Last it got to Hicks and that was the last straw. If it turns out that these people try this shit again then Simon and the other Producers have to so something and fast before the season is over or there won’t be a next season.
One more suggestion from my wife who’s right next to me and is an avid fan and would join in a flash: If necessary, make it so that only members of the Idol Website can vote and each vote costs $0,50 and also every vote is tied to the IP address from which voter from which it came from so that we know who is voting for who, TOTAL TRANSPARENCY.
My wife is a pretty smart woman and that’s why she keeps me around.
