Hooch ride

Well, i've now seen my old car TWICE in the last 3 days...once taking up two lanes in a right hand turn lane cause the 17 year old hoochie that drives it missed the right lane the first time. Second time, driving home from golf last nite with three other pussycat dolls riding with her. I'm sorry car. Really, truly sorry. It's been soooo highschool girl'd out i can't even describe it anymore...stickers on it that say 'superbitch' pink sunglasses hanging from the rearview mirror...beads and necklaces everywhere..i can see these things clearly DRIVING BY...so they ain't exactly unnoticeable.

At least her mom paid with a cashier's check. no car deserves that fate tho.

How could i forget??!!

The most telling thing about dancing with the stars and the one that has struck me as the oddest is that Laila Ali..muhammed Ali's daughter is a dude. Seriously. She's enormous and has a deeper voice then me. I think i saw the faint signs of an adam's apple too, but that's uncomfirmed...

Sorry for the delay...

But i've been putting off my thoughts on dancing with the stars. Basically, i'm afraid they are shoving it down our throats. This is the third season of the show in a little over a year...that's too much...even for me.

It's becoming a bit contrite and monotonous. I need a break from the formula of the show and am almost feeling like i HAVE to watch it instead of looking forward to it.

SAme time, i still love the lady dancers. Edyta is the best. But that's really it. I Dvr the show, then fast forward it to get the gist of what happens and basically stop to watch her, the two blonde dancers and the miss america chick. That's it.

It is a victim of higher ratings and abc desperate to compete with the other channels on monday and tuesday nites.

They even have the same type of celebrities..the washed up music singer (billy ray cyrus), the b-list actor (ian ziering) the beauty queen (shandi something) the athletes (clyde drexler and apollo anton ohno) the old guy whos is there for comic relief but shouldn't be there at all (john ratzenberger), etc, etc.

Alright, that's enuff, i'm even growing tired of writing about it. GIVE US SOME TIME BETWEEN SERIES ABC!

A List

1) While walking through my subdivision this afternoon i realized i'm in kind of a mixing pot. I have a wide variety of neighbors with a wide variety of characteristics..different races, genders, sexual preferences and lifestyles. I've seen em' all, however there also is a an element of trashiness in some of the houses.

One for instance still has the Christmas tree in THEIR FRONT YARD. Others still not only have their Christmas lights up, but they still regularly turn them on as well. Another house has what appears to be corn growing in their front yard.

Sigh...i'm glad they aren't my neighbors.

2) BBQ Bettermade potato chips freakin' rule. Locally made and freakin' scrumptious. Plus, you can get $5 off your next trip to tour the Ford Rouge River Plant!! Stickers right on the bag!! (no joke)

3) I've decided while I enjoy my job and very thankful for it, that is all it is, a job.

4) I'm painting soon.

5) I'm nervous i'm gonna F it up.

6) The chair i'm sitting on is breaking

7) I REALLY enjoyed spending literally, all day, last thursday and friday at the bar watching basketball instead of working. In all my life i'd never done that. Shame on me for waiting that long.

8) Dancing with the Stars debut's in 25 minutes!!

9) I'm not as excited for it as i was last season...it gets good ratings and they are really cramming it down our throats now to compete with Idol i'm guessing. Same time, i love the chick dancers...hot.

10) Shelly asked me yesterday if Spiders poop.

11) It's her birthday soon, i'm getting her a nintendo hand held gaming thing she wants. Pink, of course.

12) Her dance class is going really well, but am afraid she'll turtle when she realizes what a "recital" really is.

13) Carly is getting better on the potty....

14) I still had to deal with her taking a dump in her pants 2 weeks ago at the library.

15) I've been workin' out pretty regularly now for a few months and am getting stronger

16) I'm eating like crap and geting fatter too

End List

Megatron a Tank??

This Post is gonna really out me, but i'm cool with it. I had an unhealthy mancrush on transformers when i was boy. Loved the cartoon, loved the toys..i think i may have written on it before, but something i saw the other nite made me feel all funny inside..and not good funny...angry funny.

While watching cartoons with shelly and carly the other nite i saw a commercial for new transformers toys. Optimus Prime and Megatron..the two main characters. Optimus (yes, we are on a first name basis) is still a semi-truck, but megatron is no longer his deadly luger type handgun, he's a tank.

WTF?

Megatron is a tank? Seriously..he's a freakin' gun!!! Not a tank!! I want to see the bad ass mo'fo from the picture above!! Not some girly tank!! Anywho, my brother made the note that perhaps it's his logical evolution as a character as he started off transorming into a hangun, then into a three legged laser rifle and now a tank..and that argument does make sense...but that also would be like saying the logical evolution of Soundwave would be to turn into a toaster oven. ugh.

Same time....i watched the old transformers movie on dvd the other nite. And ya know what? Besides the older animation, horrible soundtrack and outdated dialogue, the movie still sucked me in big time. This movie i saw in the theater and still am not over the shock i experienced when I heard Spike utter "Shit!" or Ultra Magnus said "Damn it!" those things just didn't happen in cartoons back then. There was an audible gasp from the audience when that happened! (turns out the reason was they wanted the movie to be pg to get a larger audience, so they included some heavier language and multiple deaths of main characters of the franchise).

Bottom line, i miss that show...the nostalgia, the time my brother and I got Jetscream for Christmas and the other time my brother got a transformer and i got a Gobot. Which was like asking for a Coke and getting an RC Cola at the time. Thanks dad, that still sticks with me.

Anywho, i'm 33. That's enuff of this talk.
