Sorry to disappoint you

For the individual that found my blog using the search term "junkie heroin prostitute," I'm sorry you didn't find what you were looking for at wilsonblog. It might be presumptuous of me, but perhaps you're dwelling too much on the darker side of life. Might I suggest some happier, fluffier reading, just as a change of pace. Maybe you want to check out my post on the biggest hit single of the 1970s? Or how about a song about puppies? Who doesn't love puppies? I'll bet even junkie heroin prostitutes love puppies.

It's 9/10/11 - I have to post something

How about this little fella who might be a contender for the ugliest dog ever. Heard that old saying, "a face only a mother could love." Here it is.

The King is dead!

I'm talking about that plastic face goon that has been haunting television sets (and my nightmares) for several years now. Burger King has finally decided to give their creepy laminated spokesman the pink slip. About time. I don't know what marketing genius came up with the idea to begin with, whoever he was he should be flipping burgers now instead of selling them. I rarely eat at BK and their mascot with his lifeless eyes and unnerving smile sure didn't inspire me to go more often. Mostly he just freaked me out. Spent most his time just silently skulking about, frightening adults and especially kids. So long, scary disturbing whopper man!

Norman, is that you?

After checking with my blogger stats I find that one reader stumbled upon my site while searching through the internetz with the phrase "human war trophies." I don't want to offend you, sir or madam. I just want to say that you maybe, possibly, might want to seek out some professional help. I'm also going to ask with all sincerity that you please not use my hide to make a fine poncho... No seriously, please don't.

That day is here

National Buy A Gun Day is finally here and now I can proudly show the new addition to the wilsonarmory®. It's inexpensive to buy, inexpensive to shoot and a whole lot of fun, it's my "new" Ruger MKII Government Model .22! If you made a purchase this year let's hear from you, Jay G wants to hear from you too. For those of you that didn't have the money to participate, in this economy that's understandable. But if you forgot to make a purchase this year or you just couldn't be bothered please click

EDIT

A regular reader e-mailed to tell me that I should put a disclaimer on that link I posted. It seemed to him too cruel and perhaps he has a point. Let me also restate that said link was intended for those that willingly chose not to be a part of Buy A Gun Day this year, not anyone that wanted to but couldn't for whatever reason...

SO YOU WANT A DISCLAIMER - HERE IT ISHERE and think ahead to 2012.

I wake up screaming...

Saw THIS over at Jay G's (he got it from The Feral Irishman)

This is why I refuse to go fishing, not without my M1 Garand, a spare oxygen tank and fire, plenty of fire. I don't think I'll be sleeping tonight, thanks guys!

Double Down!

Yesterday I tried a KFC Double Down "sandwich" - one word - delicious! This last Labor Day I spent most of the afternoon laying around, doing nothing and watching the Star Wars movies on cable and found myself bombarded by commercials for this unique culinary (or is that coronary) treat. By the time Return of the Jedi was over I knew that I had to get one! That's the power of advertising! Since yesterday was also my last day of jury duty that was more than enough excuse for me to stop and buy it. Even though it blew my diet completely! In case you're one of the few that haven't heard KFC's Double Down is made using 2 fried chicken fillets, a slice each of Monterey Jack and pepper jack cheese, two slices of bacon and a special sauce. Some brilliant KFC sandwich engineer got rid of that pesky bread that was just taking up room that could be filled with more meat! They should get a Nobel prize for this (if there was any justice in the world). If you should want a (slightly) healthier Double Down they also make a version using grilled chicken fillets but I really don't see the point of it. The Double Down is a purely American invention and I can't see them selling this in Europe or anywhere else for that matter. Basically this is for American Men, who are the only ones (in large numbers) that I could see buying and enjoying this. I do have some suggestions - 1) they need to put some red meat on this, at least 1 beef patty is definitely called for and would make this perfect. 2) I know that KFC's schtick is chicken so the beef probably isn't going to happen. In that case I would suggest that the Double Down be re-wrapped in bacon and then the entire thing refried (in batter) making one large fried doughy ball of chicken/cheesy/bacon goodness! Since I'm the one that suggested it I would expect that it be named after me, the wilson-memorial-coronary-heart-disease-special does have a certain ring to it, doesn't it?

On Tuesday September 16th, Pingping, the world's shortest man (at 2 Feet - 5.37 Inches) met with Russian born Svetlana Pankratova, who holds the record as the lady with the longest legs (at 51.96 Inches). They met at London's Trafalgar Square to help promote the release of the newest edition of the Guinness World Records.
