More evidence to support my theory. It’s a lemonhead!

I’m alive, and thanks to everyone for the well wishes (especially Jason, the Hasslehoff image will forever be burned into my mind). I’m still sick to my stomach, but I am at least upright today.

Ok, it took me awhile, but I’ve put it together. Watch this video of David Thompson explaining to the Mayor and City Council of Charlotte NC, about the helicopter pilot that is terrorizing him and is a threat to National Security:

Now, David explains things about the shaking very clearly, but despite his best efforts to follow the helicopter, he either doesn’t get a good look at the pilot, or he left that detail out. Then later on, he goes on to call George Shinn a “lemonheaded coward” (not sure if lemonheaded is hyphenated or not). I don’t know who George Shinn is, unless he’s referring to the coach of the Hornets, and what Mr. Shinn has to do with the helicopter. Mr. Thompson is actually speaking to Mayor McCrory and the city council members, but he might have been a little confused. Now, bear with me, I think that the lemonheaded comment about Mr. Shinn was his subconscious way of remembering some small detail about the pilot. Now, assuming that’s true, think back to another lemonheaded individual. That’s right, I’m talking about the Mobile Leprechaun

Here’s my amateur sketch of what such a sight might look like:

And in case you can’t see him in that picture:

What do you think?

Great concert! We all had a good time. Andrea even got an autographed copy of 30 Seconds to Mars’s latest CD! She wouldn’t put it down all night!

So I wear my lucky shoes today, since it will probably be muddy tonight at the concert, and Stephanie makes fun of me. What a meanie.

Lucky shoe

It’s not like I’m the only person walking around in a pair of shoes with the pinky toe hanging out. Geeze.

SYDNEY (AFP) - A 176-year-old giant tortoise believed to have been studied by famed English naturalist Charles Darwin, has died in Australia after a short illness.

The extremely elderly tortoise, Harriet, was hatched on the
Galapagos Islands in 1830 but lived out her final years at Australia Zoo in southeast Queensland where she was the star attraction.

Senior veterinarian John Hangar said the 150-kilogram (330-pound) reptile died on Thursday night after a short illness.

“She had been sick yesterday with, in effect, heart failure,” Hangar told ABC radio.

“She had a fairly acute heart attack and thankfully passed away quietly overnight.”

Funny, and disturbing all at the same time. Right up my alley!

It’s a USB flash drive storage device, hidden in a little teddy bear! So you have to rip his head off to plug in the drive! Classic!

It’s been awhile since I’ve done a “hunk of the day” thing, so here’s a good one to make up for it.
