Cavs Game Courtside

Awesome seats at Saturday's Cavs game! Trounced the raptors! 

My coworkers surprised me with a cake. Kurt and I share a birthday. Kurt wore his birthday hat!

 

The Gatorade Bomb

The guffaws and looks of exasperation I received when I mentioned I hadn't heard about the bomb plans were enough to tell me that I must really be out of the news loop. "It's all over the News!" Jim said with a hairy eyeball that made me feel slightly unamerican.

So I went to some news sites to find out more. I found out that people were having to pour out their shampoos and lotions before boarding planes. That has to be good for the shampoo/lotion economy. I read that the latest possible terrorist attack was going to be from a few people that planned to meet on the plane and mix their individual ingredients into a big bomb, and then kill themselves and drop the plane out of the sky, killing everybody.

The more news stories I watched, the more stories I heard. I heard that people were going to use a Gatorade bottle and fil it with other stuff. I heard that people were going to use a bottle of Gatorade and just add some other ingredients to the sugar/electrode mix. I heard that all of this information was freely available on the Internet and that these types of bombs are being made all the time.

I also heard that little voice in my head that says 'Be skeptical, your government lies.'

Were there people going to mix ingredients of bombs once they got on the same plane? Sure. I can accept that. There are people who do more than just believe in their religion and decide to share it with others with some really bad marketing choices. I can accept that. I can accept that they were ready to do some serious damage.

I am grateful that they were caught before anyone died.

But I don't want to ever watch the news again. It makes me feel like if I take my shampoo and mix it with my conditioner on my own, I am going to blow away my scalp, my shower, and my neighborhood.

After watching the news, I feel like if the checkout boy puts a can of raid in the same plastic bag as a snickers bar I will be carrying the equivalent of 40 M80's.

Please, keep the news away from me. They scare me more than a terrorist.

Savor Faire

is everywhere!

Sock Ray Blue!

Dress Ripped Off, Falls in Ditch

I'm from France and in France at the same time. Right now. Even from here.

Talented Guitarist

This is tough because I don't know who the guitarist is and want to hear more from him.

Talented Guitarist

The other part of this is whether this is just a neat trick that someone's got in the Ben Folds tradition of 'Not The Same.'

Millionaire Loser

Remember when the first American Millionaire Winner called his dad with his lifeline even though he knew the answer to the million dollar question?

This is the exact opposite of that.

Guy burns through all three lifelines on a 300 dollar question.

Brutal.

Ooompah

So this midget paints himself up and puts on green hair and has the whole Oompah Loompah costume going on. Then he skateboards all over town performing some awesome moves.

If I saw an Ooompah Looompah skate by me, I would probably be pretty freaked out.

Magic that makes you go 'Ooohhh'

Political Magic Cards. Really, let me teach you how to play this game.

Animate Dead is just wrong.

Fark Magic Thread

Let it load. Let it load.

Train Wreck Redefined

It just plain hurts towatch it.

Mike Tyson and Bobby Brown perform Monster Mash

Why?

Why would I buy Viagra from someone who can't spell it right?

Why would I take advice from someone who is finally happy about the size of their penis whose name is Alice?

Why would I want a lower rate on a home I sold a year ago?

Oh, and just so you know, I prefer Google over Yahoo, McDonalds over Burger King, and Boxer-Briefs over Boxers and Briefs.
