So my remote was dying so I did what any geek would do, I checked my parts box for AAA batteries. When I didn't find any I went out and bought a ten pack thinking I was in panic mode on batteries. So then I go to put them away and I notice a bag next to the parts box. Inside the bag is a 15 pack. So I now have more AAA batteries then anyone will need in like, a lifetime. Let me know if you want to stop by and grab any. You guys can have the blue and silver ones, I think I'm gonna keep the neon pink ones. Yes, I said neon pink batteries. (Fo shizzle)

10 Things I Hate About You Script at IMSDb.

I hate the way you're always right
I hate it when you lie

not even close, not even a little bit,
not even any at all.

Body movin, body movin,
A1 sound, sound so soothing
Body movin, body movin,
We be getting down and you know we're crush groovin

Let me get some action from the back section
We need body rocking not perfection
Let your back bone flip but don't slip a disc
Let your spine unwind just take a risk
I wanna do the freak until the break of dawn
Tell me party people is that so wrong
The ship is docking, inter-lockin
And up-rockin electro-shocking
We're getting down computer action
Do the robotic satisfaction
All of y'all get off the wall
Have a ball and get involved with

Body movin, body movin with the A-1 sound sound so soothing

Flame on, I'm gone
I'm so sweet like a nice bon bon
Came out rapping when I was born
Mom said rock it 'til the break of dawn
Puttin bodies in motion cause I got the notion
Like Roy Cormier with the coconut lotion
The sound of the music drivin you insane
You can't explain to people this type of mind frame
Like a bottle of Chateau Neuf Du Pap
I'm fine like wine when I start to rap
We need body rockin not perfection
Let me get some action from the back section

Body movin, body movin,
A1 sound, sound so soothing
Body movin, body movin,
We be getting down and you know we're crush groovin

Mike D with the master plan
Ooh my my and thank you ma'am
And when I grab the mic you scream Ooh god damn
The creme de la creme is who I am
MCA where have you been
Packed like sardines in the tin
So kick off your shoes and put on your swim fins
Cause when it comes to quarries I'm known to swim
Adrock light up the place
And if you pull my card you pull the ace
And if you ask me turn up the bass
And if you play defender I could be your hyper space

Body movin'

2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.
3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.
4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.
5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.
6. You go home after a long day at work you still answer the phone in a business manner.
7. You make phone calls from home, you accidentally dial "9" to get an outside line.
8. You've sat at the same desk for four years and worked for three different companies.
10. You learn about your redundancy on the 11 o'clock news.
11. Your boss doesn't have the ability to do your job..
12. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home.
13. Every commercial on television has a website at the bottom of the screen.
14. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your
life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.
15. You get up in the morning and go on-line before getting your coffee.
16. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. :)
17. You're reading this and nodding and laughing.
18. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to
forward this message.
19. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.
20. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list.

How to be an idiot

bigmerl.com is in no way affiliated with anyone or anything. I'm pretty sure one look at the low production values would tell you that. Or even bothering to read the garbage that I write. I mean, hello, I am the Big Merl. So why is it every single time I do even a reference to a celebraty, someone has to email me to get in touch with them, or thinks that I am that person. Like right now, I can say "Mila Kunis is a hottie" and I will have two marriage proposals in my inbox when I get home from work tomorrow. That isn't counting all the wise guys that will email me just to be funny.

In summary: Please turn on brain before logging into AOL. Thank you!

YOU ARE RULE 8(a)!

You are Rule 8, the most laid back of all the
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. While your
forefather in the Federal Rules may have been a
stickler for details and particularity, you
have clearly rebelled by being pleasant and
easy-going. Rule 8 only requires that a
plaintiff provide a short and plain statement
of a claim on which a court can grant relief.
While there is much to be lauded in your
approach, your good nature sometimes gets you
in trouble, and you often have to rely on your
good friend, Rule 56, to bail you out.

"Huskers" for Ohio

I love my Huskers. Everyone should know that by now. They are one of my reasons for existence. Some people however can't cope with the fact that the Solich era is over. Therefore, they have become Ohio fans. Ok, whatever. However, if you are going to do that, don't call your new booster club 'Huskers for Ohio'. When you jump off the ship, you give up all rights to the Big Red. You are no longer N, you are out. Huskers do not support Ohio. Huskers support the University of Nebraska. GO BIG RED!

Mark's misc rants . . .

So you may ask me "Big Merl, this blog has been around for a year and a half and has only had like ten posts on it, what gives? You always pick blogs to link better then this." And I will say "Look at his Blogger profile, he is the only other one listing TotalFark as an interest."

thismink(DOT)com

OK, if I can direct everyones attention to thismink(dot)com, she has a feature I am considering adding to bigmerl.com. It is called a Blogroll. Is there much interest from my readers in my adding this? Because there is football on and I'm too lazy to read up on this now.

Jerry Jeff Walker Home Page

Dear kids of the world,
His name is Jerry Jeff 'JJ' Walker. You might have heard of him. You may know him as the Caddilac Cowboy, the Gypsy Songman, Jacky Jack, The leader of the Lost Gonzos. You might not have heard of him. He writes the songs though. You know Mr. Bojangles? The song about the old wanderer that will dance for you so he can buy his booze? Walker wrote that song while he was in a drunk tank in New Orleans. You know my favorite party animal Jimmy Buffet? Him and Walker go back to their days in Key West when Jerry tought him how to party.
The man has a passion for the music. He writes songs that capture the life he has lead, which isn't your normal path to the top. He begged for pennies, he lived off the land, he bounced from town to town. He truly was a gypsy in the 60s and early 70s. Now he is living in Austin, with his own record label so he is free to record what and when he pleases so he can keep his music true to himself.

I didn't have a reason to write this other then wanting to share a legend with everyone.
