About Me

Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a daily basis. If you find it entertaining, informative, and controversial, then I have done my job properly. Thank goodness too, because Karma has been on my case of late. I'm supposed to bring fifty people into the fold or I'll have to give back the part of Einstein's brain I inherited. No, I'm not one of the Scientists who got a piece of his brain when he died. Karma said, "Eat this knowledge. It'll make you smarter!" The bargain I made with Karma was, if I could change fifty people into Politiores Populos, I would be rewarded with my very own Lamborghini. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Like what you're reading, then read on. P.S. Populo is Latin for people. Politiores is Latin for educated. Troglodytes is English for troglodytes. And Einstein's brain was stolen by Thomas Stoltz Harvey after his death in 1955 and eventually divvied up into 240 pieces. If you just read that last sentence, then you have just learned something and I'm just that much closer to fulfilling my commitment to Karma!

A Dynamic Father

Being the dynamic Father that I am,
I will ask,
one of my daughters,
who owns a car,
while living at home,
if it's alright to use it once in awhile.
Yes,
I do have my own car.
The reason I ask is,
I want to fill her car up with gas,
check the fluids,
and I make sure the tire pressure is correct.
See,
I told you I was dynamic.
The other day,
I drove up to the local gas station,
to go inside the convenient store
and buy a couple of energy drinks.
When I stepped out of my daughter's car,
I saw this lady laughing,
not hysterically,
but laughing nonetheless.
Back in my younger days I might have gotten angry,
thinking she was laughing at me for some reason.
In my Punk Rocker days I would have spouted out profanity,
thinking that was the way to save my dignity.
I'm much wiser than that now.
So I stared at her.
After telling an employee at the convenient store something,
which made him turn around and smile at me,
the lady noticed that I was staring at her a little too long.
So she said to me,
"I love your bumper sticker."
Instead of owning up to it,
I got a little embarrassed,
a little anxious,
and quickly spouted out,
"It's my daughter's car!"
The bumper sticker read,
CUTE BUT PSYCHO!

This is the extremely normal Jim Hauenstein,

That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

  1. I knew exactly what she was laughing at way before you said anything about the bumper sticker .... But that does put you in the dynamic category for dads that's for sure !!!its almost like asking your dad to buy some tampons...which father would say "no that's embarrassing!!"
