Hollydale 911

With the law on my side, you might think I am always a sure fire winner, but danger lurks around each and every corner.


Deputy Travis Junior: Doctor Shoal ... can you save Speedcat from the bullet wound? (panic look)

Doctor Shoal: Well let me see here, sit still Speedy .... Uh, you are not required you to disrobe. I'm not sure why you're sitting here in your underwear.

Deputy S. Jones: Sheriff Speedcat was in his underwear when we all got here!

Deputy Travis Junior: Yeah, what's the deal, Speedcat?

Sheriff Speedcat Hollydale: I don't feel the need to explain myself ... why are you idiots not concerned with the gaping hole in my leg from the gunshot (dammit!)

Deputy Trudy Wiegel: I think you will live ... "Hollystreak". [as she eats from a Taco Bell bag]

Deputy S. Jones: Officers, there are still two armed men inside.

Deputy James Garcia: Don't we ALL have TWO ARMS ??? Man, what a dope.

Sheriff Speedcat Hollydale: Pass me some of those nachos, will ya??

Doctor Shoal: I'm Afraid NOT ... the Trans-fat will mess up your clotting. [hits Sheriff Hollydale in the gut]

Tongue Texting for Safe Driving?

Facebook Brown Rihanna Afghanistan goes to the Mardi Gras

Sometimes what we internet junkies do becomes big news. A blog wrote about the new Facebook policy of keeping all records from users even after they QUIT Facebook, and the news media goes mad. I saw the story on the local and national news. Check out "Facebook's Privacy Flap: What Really Went Down" , and "Facebook reverses course on privacy policy". Here is the thing, if you use your real identity EVER anywhere on the net, you are crazy. Just don't do it. We could go on all day about copy writes, personal privacy issues, and how we all "OWN" what we write on our blogs and other media sources, but truth is once you hit enter, your content is everywhere and recorded by much more than Google or Facebook. Think you have a private blog that is not searched by bots?? Think again. I could publish something, erase or alter it, but feeds and readers will have already captured every word. FOREVER. There is not privacy on the net, and there never was. I will say again ..... do not use your real identity or true address anywhere - anytime.

That leads me to the next story perfectly! Chris Brown has the hot seat in the tabloids and news pages all over the world. A Martial Arts Expert has even challenged Chris Brown to a fight. This is both ridiculous and somehow interesting enough for others to join in. There is a list of MORE people that want to fight brown on Facebook. Sound like a made up story? Check this out !! ... " The Facebook Fight Challenge. " While Rihanna is 'torn' over helping police , the Chris Brown Beating of a pop star is still making waves. Did anyone else find it odd that many music celebs support Chris Brown?? Does he really deserve to be wrapped in a baby blanket of compassion? What if Rihanna was their sister?? Would that change the acceptance level?


Of course the biggest news is all Obama all the time. The Stimulus bill was packed with goodies that most people are completely unaware of. I have been to many blogs where the reader believes that they will be getting big checks in the mail! The president seems to have so much support that the public is willing to turn a blind eye on what is actually happening. ACORN will be a direct recipient of government stimulus funds. Does anyone care about that? We have reached a point in our nation’s history where, sooner than we may believe, other nations are going to seriously question whether they want to buy the Treasury notes we want to sell in order to borrow more and more trillions. Where did you think this money was coming from? Who will pay it back?
A spokesperson for the Chinese government put it quite succinctly, “We hate you.” The U.S. dollar will shortly begin to resemble Zimbabwean money which is utterly worthless. Big government has killed off free enterprise, and we are attempting to fix this with BIGGER government. WOW is all I have to say about that. You can tell me that you hate Bush and we need to give Obama a chance all you want, but the car is aimed at a cliff and the accelerator is now floored. The total U.S. obligations, including Social Security and Medicare benefits to be paid in the future, effectively has placed the U.S. government in bankruptcy. These obligations exceed four times the annual U.S. gross domestic product (GDP), and the amount is more than the entire GDP of the world. Golly ... good luck with that.

Of course Obama was praised as he said the troops in Iraq must come home. Peace in the valley! Many believe that the threat of radical terrorism is just a made up ploy. More blindness? What will the peace activists say when Obama sends 17000 more troops to Afghanistan ? A US General sees new US troops in Afghan war by summer . Is this country the new focul point? For now the answer is YES. Is this change? War follows corruption. Afghanistan produces two-thirds of the world's heroin from poppies. More than 90 percent of it comes out of Helmand province where the Marines are headed. Am I condemning this action? Not really. I would like to hear the liberal viewpoint though. Is this war "OK" because Obama is at the helm? Will everything Obama does be OK with his followers, no matter what? Here is the best one ... "DID Afghanistan have weapons of mass destruction"? hmmmmmm
I am sure this portion of my MEGA post will be very unpopular, but I have read all of your "I love Obama" posts, and wanted to stab a fork in my eyes. You will survive this, just as I did. It is ok to write about my concerns too, right??

On to lighter subjects .... the Grand Mardi Gras Parade is here, and the troubles of the world seem to dissappear for a while as loonatics and the temporarily insane go for broke. This sounds like something where a Speedcat like me could stand out as normal. I will not be attending this year, but my friend Doctor Shoal has a new and fresh report here: "Doctor Shoal Takes a Vacation at Mardi Gras" Be forewarned that the Doctor Shoal Blog does not have the strict "wholesome" guidlines like the Speedcat Hollydale Page. Make sure no one under 18 is in the room!
Hanging With The Veet In Mobile, Alabama is also a great live footage Mardi Gras post from Olga the Traveling Bra. OYE OYE !!!!

Guest Blogger Saturdays: "Doctor Shoal"

This post was written for the Speedcat Hollydale Page by
Doctor SHOAL .

After getting my PHD'ed Genius Doctoring Degree, I was ready for adventure, and wanted to give something to those with nothing. Instead of working at some fancy clinic with electricity and medicines, I excepted work in Malayshiana, and soon opened the very first Hollydale Clinic. We practiced with care, and did surgery with steak knives and whisky. The only charges made for our labors were fruit and chickens. It was a very happy and fulfilling time in my life, but I was dipping into the whisky a little too often.


Before I knew what hit me, I found myself on skid row in TiePay. Every day was a test of how to make enough money for my booze and a pack of camels. Usually, I found myself making out with a toothless and fowl woman from the poultry canning plant down the road. My one rule? .... "NO FRENCHING". Yes, my scruples were at an all time low.

To purge myself, and become one with my Che`, I took a sabbatical on the island of serenity ... owned by Miss Moneypenny CPU . Yes, this is the Shoal Lighthouse on the Detroit river. My daily duties kept me busy .... and soon I was sober. Days there were lonely without a doubt, but at least I was not a drunken street gigolo any more. With my new found inner strength, I paddled to shore, and ventured back into Doctoring work.

The first person to give me another chance was Doctor Pepper, an old friend from college. I owe him a lot, and regard him as my Caliente` mentor. Medical faith in me quickly improved, and soon I was right there in the swing of things at the golf course. Monday and Tuesday were "on duty" at the Hospital, even though I hate working two days in a row. It seemed a small price to pay for my life back.

There was only one stymie in the mix. The head nurse there , (Veronica Croutons) was a succubus ... and MEAN! She made me miserable. I hate to say this, but I had evil thoughts sometimes, and even made a few false allegations against her. She was fired after my claim that she put corn dogs up patient's urethras.

The nurses station was fine after that, but it needed something .... someone with a flair and talent for healing. Someone who was kind, witty, and - well, you know.



That's when I met Amanda Hugankiss, the finest head "transplant"... nurse in the business. She was a pure joy to work with, and rather than loose her to Doctor Pepper, we started our own clinic together back in Hollydale. That was 5 years ago ...
Today, the Doctor Shoal / Hugankiss Hospital has grown to a full service, state of the art facility. We are regarded as a world wide leader and authority on new procedures, expert patient care, and outstanding recovery rates. Honestly, without the help of Nurse Huggans, the dream I am living now may have never happened. We decided to open our "medical doors" to the public, and both have blogs about our life and adventures at the clinic.

"Ho Ho Hoooo" is a post sending me the award you see to the right. I realize that most awards are link driven, and are passed around like post it notes. This one was different. When I read about "my own blog" through anothers eyes, it affected me in a very positive way. You can check it out HERE at the "I Ponder" blog.
