Can You Legally Eat Your Own Cat?

Apparently in some states there are no laws barring you from eating your own pets, but this guy lives in one of those that does have a law on the book and he was arrested after a traffic stop lead to the discovery of his plan. In the trunk the officers found a cat marinating in a mixture of crushed red peppers, chili peppers, salt and oil.

I'm a huge fan of animals, mainly dogs [not so much cats], but either way this article had me in tears when I was reading it. Seriously, the cat was mean to the guy so he decided he was going to eat him... I think this guy is ALF in disguise...

(NewsCore) - A Buffalo man allegedly marinated his live cat in a mixture of crushed red peppers and chili -- but was arrested before he could eat the pet, the Buffalo News reported Tuesday.

Police rescued the cat after finding it in the Cheektowaga man's car trunk when he was pulled over for allegedly passing a stop sign on Sunday night.

Ferry-Fillmore District officers said they heard the cat crying from inside the trunk and found it in a cage “marinating” in a mixture of crushed red peppers, chili pepper, salt and oil.

Gary L. Korkuc, 51, told police his black and white cat named Navarro had been "mean" to him and he was planning to make a meal out of the animal because it was ill-tempered.

He was arrested on one count of cruelty to animals and was also charged with passing a stop sign and failure to signal.

Navarro, a four-year-old male, was taken to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, where he is being put up for adoption.

Don’t Put All Your Eggs in One Basket – Affiliate Marketing

After all the research and reading I've done regarding affiliate marketing and making money on the internet, one thing that I've always read is that you should never put all of your eggs in one basket, meaning that you should not rely on one site or one affiliate program for all of your income. I always knew that this was good advice, but I never knew how good it was until a couple weeks ago.

When I first got into affiliate marketing I really had no idea what sort of site I wanted to start or how I would get people to that site, I just knew I wanted to make money on the internet. Eventually I figured out an idea, presale passwords for concerts and events. I knew that I was always searching the internet for passwords for different concerts that my friends and I wanted to go to, so why not make 1 site that aggregates all the passwords for people. After I came up with the idea I had wondered if I could even get into a Ticketmaster affiliate program. If there was no money to be made there was no point, as that's what I wanted to do.

My Colonoscopy Experience

I bet a lot of you are wondering why the hell I'm writing about this here since most of the time I write about movies, video games and TV. Well, when I wrote about my upper endoscopy experience a couple months ago it actually got a good amount of attention from google searches so I figured people may be interested in how it feels to get a camera shoved up your ass instead of down your throat. And I'll tell you right now, the procedure itself was no different to me because they gave me the same medicine that they gave me with the endoscopy and I don't remember anything. It's essentially like getting roofied at a party with a bunch of frat guys and waking up not knowing what happened, but having an idea of what may have happened...

This post is kind of graphic as I'm not going to hold anything back as that would be unfair to those that are trying to see what they will experience if they have to go through this. I'm not trying to gross you out, but I did not use proper terms for anything here because I'm not a doctor and I don't care to refer to shit as stool or shitting as defecating, sorry. So if you're sensitive to that kind of language you may want to hit up webMD or somewhere else to read about what you may experience. Most people are embarrassed to talk about this kind of stuff, but I don't really care. It's no secret to anyone I know that I have digestive problems and there are only a few ways to figure out what those problems are and everyone pretty much knows what a colonoscopy is so why not talk about it.

So like I said, the actual procedure was no different than the upper endoscopy except for the fact that I didn't have a sore throat after the colonoscopy and I did after the endoscopy (and no I did not have a sore ass either). The worst part, and anyone who's had one will tell you the same thing, is the night before. With the endoscopy all I had to do was not eat after midnight, no big deal, but with the colonoscopy you need to completely clear your colon and that means you have to pass everything out of you. And that doesn't just mean you can't eat, it means you can't eat and you have to drink this nasty laxative. For the entire day before the procedure I was only allowed to drink clear liquids so I survived on water and Sprite, but I was damn hungry by the time I left work for the day.

I got home the night before the procedure around 4pm and was instructed to take an anti nausea pill that they had prescribed as well as mix up the 1st liter of the MoviPrep liquid laxative stuff they prescribed. So I mixed up the full liter of liquid and put it in the fridge, I didn't have to start drinking it until 5pm. So at 5pm my alarm went off and I grabbed the jug out of the fridge. I was instructed to drink 8 oz. of the liquid every 15 minutes for an hour until the whole liter was gone. So I poured 8 oz. out of the supplied jug and into another cup, set my alarm for 5:15 and started to chug. Now I know there are different liquid laxatives that different doctors prescribe cause my mom recently had to go through the same thing and she said her's tasted like cherry due to a flavor packet they gave you... I most definitely did not have a flavor packet, it was disgusting. It was almost like the sourest, most nasty tasting lemonade I've ever had in my life. If you are prescribed MoviPrep I would ask to be switched to another one that has flavor packets, seriously.

Some Things Just Lose Their Appeal

Whenever there is a new fad or technology or whatever, I usually jump on board and give it a shot to see how I feel about it. I'm not really one of those people that likes to base my experience on other people's opinions. So with that being said, I thought I'd put together a short list of things that I was really into in the past couple years that are either, just now gaining popularity or have been pretty popular within the last 2-3 years, that I'm now official sick of.

After writing a few of these I realize that I come off as a complete jackass if you're still into any of these things.. so just note that these are my opinions and you shouldn't let them deter you from any of these things if you enjoy them... (now I sound like a vag).  I'll update the post as things lose their appeal or as I realize there are more things that I'm sick of...

1. Twitter - I'll admit, I was one of those people that jumped on Twitter before any of my friends did. I had no friends on the service, but for some reason I thought that other people wanted to read that I was taking a shit or hanging out with friends that no one else on Twitter would know... Eventually more and more of my friends and celebrities joined the service and it became a little more interesting for me, but as of late I've become very bored with it. I used to post about everything I did, but I've begun to realize that nobody gives a shit... And you know how I realized this? Because every time I fire up TweetDeck and read what the people I'm following are doing... I DON'T GIVE A SHIT. Now I'm not talking about the celebrities, although most of the time I don't give a shit what they are doing either, but at least they lead a more interesting life than most of my friends (Kevin Smith's tweets are always entertaining), I'm talking about people I know in real life. Now not all my friends are retarded when it comes to Twitter, but some of the ones that post every day that think they "get" the service... really aren't using it how I feel it should be used. And that makes what they post absolutely pointless to me, and I'm friends with these people, seriously if you want to have a full conversation with someone there are much better ways to do it than Twitter. I have no idea how anyone could follow a random person and find their shit interesting. It would be like me watching two donkey's trying to have sex in a zoo, the donkey's are limited to what they can do because everyone is watching them and they are confined to a certain amount of space, and after a while nobody gives a shit that the donkey's are having sex because it's boring as hell. Maybe then one of the donkey's does something interesting like takes a huge shit as he's mounting the other donkey, but that's only interesting once. If the donkey continues to shit while having sex it just becomes dumb and uninteresting. And then maybe the male donkey decides it wants to appear "special" to the people watching it so it decides to try and fuck the zebra in the next pen... but that's the problem, the zebra is in the next pen separated by a fence so as much as the donkey tries to fuck the zebra, all it's really doing is fucking a chain link fence. And while that's fun for us watching to make fun of, it's actually kind of sad for the donkey. But eventually a new person is going to come by and show the donkey the attention it craves and once again he'll feel that people want to see him fuck the other donkey... and the cycle continues.

Don't get me wrong, I still feel there are some good uses for Twitter, but for the every day person who leads a (sorry) uninteresting life, there's no reason to post every thing you're doing because as I said before, NOBODY GIVES A SHIT!
