Our feet point out the door. We’re all gonna die!
I passed on several social opportunities with friends to stay home tonight and enjoy some peace and quiet and get a vision for my furniture rearranging efforts.Â
Not really. I had nothing else to do. Â
So, when reading about rearranging, I ran across a Feng Shui site. WT! I have relatives who live by this, but now, I’m afraid not to! Should this be a part of the political platforms with which we’re presented?  Here. Look!
“Whatever you do, make sure your feet don’t point out the door while in bed. In traditional Chinese culture, this is called the “Death Position” because the deceased are carried out feet first. Practitioners believe sleeping this way can drain your life force. If you can’t avoid it, use a footboard or a substantial trunk or other piece of furniture at the foot of your bed to act as a buffer (this is the one exception to feng shui’s normal “no footboard” rule). Finally, leave enough room around the bed for energy to flow freely, and for each partner to get up with ease. ”
Where does Sarah Palin position her bed? If I’m in danger and I’m just a citizen, I want my potential government leaders to be well positioned to lead this country. Can Sarah Palin see Russia from her bed, even if it’s in the wrong Feng Shui position? C’mon, Charlie Gibson!  Ask the right questions.Â

good grief….get a grip on life…… (tommy attacks)….upon first reading this i assumed you were on lortab and scotch. at the least a low blood sugar incident and you needed a candy bar. feng shui, magic crystals, dream catchers, guardian angels, and herbal enemas are just about as effective as 4 leaf clovers and lucky horse shoes. rant , spit, rant …..the only good thing to come outta china in the last 1000 years is lucy liu. (born in queens, new york) smokin hot semi crosseyed chick that i would totally do if i were younger , rich, and better looking…..but i digress….
it’s the 21st century and bullcrap comes in more clever and sophisticated packages but it’s still bullcrap !!
put your bed, sofa, chair, sexy painting, where ever you want to. aint no life force gonna drain out unless you catch a bullet during a broadmoor drive-by.
and dont ask questions about sara palins bed. another smokin hot chick….u no the rest….
and charlie gibson needs to get that big crease on his forehead fixed !! really now….whats up with that??
wow….i need a candy bar and a nap…….

I have always wanted wanted Charlie Gibson to botox that giant wrinkle on his head but now I think it will require plastic surgery.
I think if you do something to your rooms that you think will make you feel better, you will feel better no matter what you do.

I would say that the bedroom is where the magic happens, but ain’t no magic happenin in my bedroom!

So, Tommy…I’m right there with ya’ on the whole “crap is crap” thing. And I couldn’t agree more on the Lucy Liu, Sarah Palin and Chuck Gibson front. But what, exactly, is wrong with Lortab and Scotch?

my great aunt prissyemae lived in duckbutter, arkansas. in a shack in the dark ole spooky woods. she was a tall woman and had to sleep with her feet hanging out the window of the bedroom. prissymae would soak her feet in kerosene at night, before bedtime, to combat a bad toejam problem she had picked up during WWI. (navy veteran..another story)
everyone in the fambly tole her dat her feng shui wuz all backasswards and she wuz headin for trouble. would she listen???…..noooooo!!!….one night a local drug addict snuk up and lit her foots on fire to heat up a spoonfull of arkansas heroin. (potent mixture of geritol and stanback powders)
hilarity ensued as prissymae, howling like a panther, ran around the shack, down the road and thru the local cresote plant and set fire to hundreds of phone poles. she was screaming an obsenity but due to her WWI mouth injury, it soundled like she was yelling “foulke me runnin.” the mayor of the town (mayor alamo) was intrigued by this and had the name of the town changed from duckbutter to foulke.
bad feng shui……ya think???

theD1……….aint nuthin wrong with a lil lortab and scotch…..just not to excess and not for beginners.
i once had a girlfriend who drank run&coke and took lortab…her hair fell out in patches (somewhat erotic…my bad)

Um, not that I’m a tattlin’ or nothun but I think Tommy done stole that dark ole spooky woods story from one uh them epeeesodas of HBO’s True Blood.
V-juice rocks! or just makes your thingy reeeely big…
So I won’t be totally off post… I suffered an on the job work injury last year (drunk people should not be allowed to drive big heavy casino chairs into your leg…) and now I have to sleep with my legs hanging off the end of the bed, swinging way low to the floor from my rice bed, right down to where that thing lives under your bed. Got a Feng Shui cure for that?

No, you’re not in trouble, tommy! Was feeling bad today and laughed so hard after reading your second post, I think I’m well.

I’m sorry… did somebody say something about Scotch… ? ?? ???
October 1st, 2008 at 9:42 am
If Lortab and scotch doesn’t work there’s always zanex and wine. Not that I’ve ever tried that.
