I am CuTRis

This just in...  

Asteroid to Pass by Earth UnAssociated Press May 31, 2013 Not to worry, asteroids rarely crash into and destroy the Earth. Last time the Earth was destroyed, was this past Tuesday in an amature Youtube video created by an anti-social, overweight North Korean kid who had nothing better to do except pretend to blow up the world.

CuTRis Returns from Alternate Universe UnAssociated Press May 31, 2013 Cutris has returned from his vacation in an alternate universe with apparently no ill effects.

CuTRis Reportedly Vacationing in Alternate Universe UnAssociated Press May 30, 2013 The lack of news about CuTRis this week--along with this picture that was found on a space alien 's cell phone clearly shows that CuTRis is (probably) in an alternate universe .

I'm jammin' with the band!

An Idea Hatches! Deep inside of CuTRis' brain , an idea was beginning to hatch ...

My condolences to those hit by the tornado in Oklahoma . Also yesterday a horrible accident during a St. Louis Park school field trip killed one student, injured two and left one missing. It's going to be a tough summer for some of these kids. I remember at age 13 when my best friend died three days after school was out for the summer. I don't think I smiled for a whole year.

Super Coke Deal I heard a rumor that this convenience store/gas station was recently purchased by a drug cartel ... but I don't know that I believe it...

Mail theft has hit my neighborhood!

I started a social media site for a neighborhood watch. It's encouraging that I have some responses this morning! If we band together we can put criminals on notice!

This Scarlet Tanager  decided to hangout in our front yard yesterday afternoon!

To the person or people who stole the wooden bench in front of our house--Whatever you do/did with it, I know you will sit/have sat on it at least once. I hope your butt is cursed from that moment of contact. I hope it itches, then bleeds, then develops into some kind of terminal illness that crawls out of your butt and spreads all over your entire body.

Then something happened... Mr. Brown can moo and he saw one fish two fish. He can sound like a hand on a door knock knock! Rabbit's plane flew right through the door and over miss Lizzy's garden! Three buzzing bees chased Pooh to the zoo where Elmo likes the elephant whose trunk swings left and right. Some are long and some are strong! A Jed is in bed and the bed of a Jed is the softest of beds, it is said. He makes it with pom poms he grows on his head. I can be quiet when daddy asks me to. He asked the kitten, but the kitten just looked and looked. You're not my mother! You are a scary snort! Good dog Sparky! ................................................................................................ ...................... ..........................error.........error..........reset.................$#^&%.*.......... ...........bing...hmmm......zip....zip....... welcome!.............login please..................

Today, I saw two of these little turtles heading to water after just hatching. I gave them a little help getting there. Yes, that's a USA Quarter

Since the trend is to tax cigarettes and alcohol to support the failing government budget --especially here in Minnesota, I would like to offer my sincere thanks to everyone who smokes and drinks. We couldn't do it without you!

CuTRis Wins American Idol! UnAssociated Press May 17, 2013 Apparently CuTRis won the title of " American Idol ," until he told the producers to "piss off!" Then the title was stripped from him and given to someone who had actually been on the show.

Not only was I was unaware that  lions are apparently roaming around in Central Park, I was also unaware that they had built a shelter there!

In the realm of big oil crooks, they have now seen fit to artificially raise gas prices by shutting down two refineries at the same time --for "maintenance."

My mom still buys me Oreo s on occasion. I think it is because when I was a small child, I concocted a story for her that I needed to have Oreos to keep my eyes (color) brown. I think mom must have liked that story--or maybe she noticed my eyes are turning more green as I get older.

When you refuse to change your actions, even when it is harming those who you love, what does that say about you? If out of tradition and convenience, you jeopardize someone else's health what does it tell you about your traditions? If you believe the way to handle hard situations is by "killing the messenger," how will you ever be happy?

CuTRis Voted Off Island UnAssociated Press May 12, 2013 Though CuTRis does not even watch the TV show, Survivor , he was apparently voted off the show. "I've never been on that island , and there are few things I could care less about than that show," said CuTRis , "But it really hurts to talk about it right now--after all I never went through. No doubt had I actually been on the island, with nothing but those weird people, that giant TV crew, and that food truck to rely on for survival, it would have been much worse." We at the UnAssociated Press understand how you feel CuTRis . Out of all of the bad things that could happen, this has got to be one of the least of them.

One of the saddest things in day-to-day life is seeing roadkill . One minute whatever it was, is bounding happily across the Interstate , and the next minute it is smashed! Sometimes you can tell what it used to be, and sometimes it gets hit again and the species is no longer distinguishable. So, though I don't normally take pictures of roadkill, I came across this the other day. It was sad. A dead sock most likely... or perhaps a long lost mitten. It doesn't matter much at this point. Decayed, lifeless and laying on the roadway waiting to rot or be removed. One minute the sock was enjoying its life, and then suddenly it was without a foot. No one knows what happened to its mate. Just the crash and death--and all that remains are the remains. At least the sock is no longer in pain. .. stuck there in the last position of death. I turn my head and walk on. Dead Sock

Are you sick of "pansies" on TV telling you how to "get rid of unwanted hair ?" Well I know I am! That's why I use Yes-Yes to add hair to my back, ears and other hard to reach places! Yes-Yes uses a patented revolutionary system that looks like a tiny (reverse) lawn mower--that digs little holes and plants course, thick, luxurious hair all over your body! No more pansy-assed smooth look for me! Get Yes-Yes today!

Well said Bill. I know a lot of people were upset to hear the truth. California Indian Education Version From American Rhetoric--Speech to NAACP

I see this fairly often when I go shopping for food--that some of it is past the expiration date and still for sale. Recently for convenience sake I stopped at a Holiday Station Store to get milk for our baby. The gallon of milk priced at $4.59 was three days past the expiration date. So I told someone at the front counter as I walked out and drove to Aldi , where a fresh gallon of milk cost me $2.69. I sent an email yesterday to Holiday Customer Service who referred me twice until some guy who said he is the district manager said he stopped over there the next day and the milk was dated May 20 (not May 2) and it was hard to read as it wasn't printed very well. He also said there was nothing written on the markdown sheet for when they dispose of old product. Actually, it sounds pretty plausible--but I don't really believe it. I check dates on food every time I go shopping. If somehow it is true, then somebody better fix the zero printer!

Of course! Why didn't I think of it? Err... wait a minute... I did think of it! I'll finish my latest (mini) novel by creating two alternate endings! That way the reader can decide which version of the future he/she would rather live in!

My son enjoyed the Minnesota Science Museum on Saturday. He really liked the miniature tornado exhibit.

SUV in Compact Parking Are Suv 's considered to be compact car s now??? Maybe the driver is dumb or more likely feels entitled to the space.

CuTRis Escapes From Giant Spider UnAssociated Press May 3, 2013 CuTRis has told a remarkable tale this morning about his daring escape from a giant spider! This transcript is of CuTRis' story as he told it to reporters.      "I knew the beast was ready to eat me as it came up behind me as if it were smelling a yummy hotdish ! That's when I remembered how Bugs Bunny got away when he told that bull to "stop steamin' up" his tail ! I yelled at the giant arachnid and punched it in the mandibles. Then I grabbed onto it's mouth parts and twisted until I pulled a piece loose! The spider ran away and I took the piece of mandible and went home." CuTRis Holds Mandible Piece  

CuTRis Kidnapped by Giant Arachnid UnAssociated Press May 3, 2013 Apparently CuTRis was abducted by a giant arachnid yesterday. CuTRis is thought to be in a cave in an undisclosed location, like in the Mountains of Brazil ; but that isn't known for sure--but it is where he probably is. CuTRis is thought to be fine, but likely to have his "juices" sucked out of him leaving only his exoskeleton . CuTRis has been in many dangerous situations before, but whether he can survive this time is doubtful at best. Photo by UnAssociated Press

My wife and I have been married for five years as of today.

CuTRis Grabbed By Giant Insect UnAssociated Press May 2, 2013 CuTRis (in photo) was apparently grabbed by a large insect this morning. The giant mandibles are clearly visible in this photo which just happened to be taken an instant before the gruesome scene occurred. No further information about CuTRis or the giant insect were available at the time this story was printed.

Yesterday after we walked in the woods for a short time, Larry found a Wood Tick ! That's not uncommon in May in Minnesota--except that it was snowing/sleeting at the time! Well this morning, after showering and putting on clean clothes, I found a Wood Tick on the bathroom floor! They must be young ones because they are small. I suppose the "new crop" just emerged when temperatures were warm a few days ago.

We're getting snow.

Sometimes life gets all flakey.
