He had been a horrible man his entire life and has been sent to HELL.

The devil puts him to work breaking up rocks with a sledgehammer. To make it
worse he cranks up the temperature and the humidity.

After a couple of days, the devil checks in on his victim to see if he is
suffering adequately. The devil is aghast as the Chicagoan is happily
swinging his hammer and whistling a happy tune.

The devil walks up to him and says, “I don’t understand this. I’ve turned
the heat way up, it’s humid, you’re crushing rocks; why are you so
happy?”

The Chicagoan, with a big smile, looks at the devil and replies, “This is
great! It reminds me of August in Chicago . Hot, humid, a good place to
work. It reminds me of home. This is fantastic!”

The devil, extremely perplexed, walks away to ponder the Chicagoan’s
remarks.  Then he decides to drop the temperature, send down a driving rain and
torrential wind.

Soon, Hell is a wet, muddy mess. Walking in mud up to his knees with dust
blowing into his eyes, the Chicagoan is happily slogging through the mud
pushing a wheelbarrow full of crushed rocks.

Again, the devil asks how he can be happy in such conditions. The Chicagoan
replies, “This is great! Just like April in Chicago . It reminds me of
working out in the yard with spring planting!”

The devil is now completely baffled but more determined to make the
Chicagoan suffer. He makes the temperature plummet. Suddenly Hell is
blanketed in snow and ice.

Confident that this will surely make the Chicagoan unhappy, the devil checks
in on the Chicagoan. He is again aghast at what he sees.

The Chicagoan
is dancing, singing, and twirling his sledgehammer as he
cavorts in glee.

“How can you be so happy?  Don’t you know its 40 below zero!?” screams the
devil.

Jumping up and down the Chicagoan throws a snowball at the devil and yells, Hell’s frozen over!! This means the Cubs won the world series!!

Anyone want an iPod or an iPod Touch! I have been wanting one forever so I can a) listen to Cubs Suck clips all day. b) surf Cubs Suck Club from my wifi. c) watch great Cubs sucking video clips at my leisure. Ok, so maybe not exactly for those reasons – but I WANT ONE! I have been considering buying one, asking for one for Christmas, etc.. Then I just recently read a post that talked about how I can get a FREE iPOD TOUCH! No way right? Well, we are going to see.

You see these things all the time. “Free this” or “Free that”. Are they real? I typically just think no way, not a chance. I saw a news video about this offer and they sure seem legit. I decided this time to TRY IT and see for myself.

All you do is:

1) Register – easy…

2) Sign up for one of their offers. Well, there are a number of offers to choose from. Some free. Some not. I have been wanting Blockbuster Online now FOR AWHILE. So I signed up for their monthly trial for $9.99! I’m getting movies all winter and probably will just keep this for 2 months. So $20 investment – BUT – I’m getting movies all winter

3) Refer 5 friends to the site and they have to sign up for an offer too. So, are you on board? Think about it. There are even free offers out there that you can just cancel after a month! What if this IS legit? It takes like 10 minutes. For $0-$10-$20 and 30 minutes of my time – I can get a free iPod Touch for Christmas.

We will see soon enough. I will report back all my findings on this. But don’t be mad at me if I get my FREE iPOD TOUCH and you DID NOT try this. I think it’s worth the gamble.

Start the process today and there is a chance to have this new iPod by Christmas If not – a late Christmas bonus!!! Please comment or send me an email if you are trying this as well. I would love to post pictures of my new iPod Touch along with yours when we get them!

It’s kind of old news already.  And it’s actually pretty small news.  But Craig Monroe has been traded by the Cubs, to the Twins, for a player to be named later.  Anyone think that player will be Johan Santana?  Doubtful    So why in the world did the Cubs even acquire Monroe at the end of last year?  Did he really do anything – at all?

Thank God! The rumors from yesterday came true. The Cubs did something right and got rid of Joke, errr, Jacque Jones today. They shipped him to Detroit for Omar Infante. Poor guy. He seems to be a decent guy and good player. Why let the Cubbies ruin him?

A lot of Cub blogs are questioning this move a bit. Do they really need another utility player? It doesn’t matter. At least we don’t have to watch Jones play through the 100 years of suckiness year!

The Surgeon General and various medical agencies around the world have been seriously considering adopting a new universal logo for the Heimlich Maneuver:

These two were closely considered but they have decided on one that represents a more universal sign for choking:
