HAPPY SOMETHING I SUPPOSE.
|
|
Jesus, it's been a tough week and a half since Christmas. First, Beth's
grandmother died so Beth has been back and forth to Lovely Lynchburg for
the past week or so. My poor Bethy. And condolences to the family, too.
Then, my pop had what they call a "mini-stroke" and ended up
in the hospital. He's out and he's fine, but they're keeping an eye on
him. A little scary, to say the least. Plus, the horrors from the tsunamis
in Asia has pretty much permeated everything since it happened. Not the best start to the new fucking year, but I'm sure it will get better.

Tip
Of The Day: Try to avoid having a coughing fit when you're taking a
dump. Bad, bad, and more bad.
|
I know someone I talked to
yesterday is waiting for me to make a comment about his lack of compassion
and his lack of donation skills, but I'm giving him a pass. It's his
choice not to donate to the tsunami relief funds and I respect that. I still wish he
would, but that's fine.
|
I
need
a new tagline. "Beliefs, Controls, and the Occasional Bologna
Sandwich" just isn't doing it for me anymore. Any suggestions?

|
STAY OFF OF MY TV.
|
|
I
don't usually slag off my favorite band (and I don't usually use the
phrase "slag off" either), but I'm getting a little tired of
all of U2's TV appearances. Their halftime gig at the Super Bowl a
couple of years back was very cool, but recently they've sorta crossed a
line with me. I didn't mind them hawking their U2 I-Pod (since much of
it is going to charity), but then they "debuted" their new
video for "All Because Of You" during the Orange Bowl on
Tuesday. And "debuted" is in quotes because it wasn't really
their full video. The goddamn thing was interspersed with clips of the
USC-Oklahoma game. It was embarrassing. Plus, I've been hearing some of
their tunes in other TV shows lately (see last night's episode of
"Alias"). I dunno, it's not sitting well with me at all. Then
again, maybe I'm just old school-y and pine for the days when bands
weren't selling Cadillacs and whatnot.

| Speaking
of the tsunamis, I saw one of the most horrific picture I've ever seen, in terms of scale.
At first, I thought the picture wasn't so bad. Then I scrolled down. And
scrolled down some more. And then scrolled to the right. Very very
disturbing and sad. I'm posting the picture not out of some sick
fascination, but because it really shows the scale of the disaster.
Warning:
Do not click on it if you're squeamish about dead bodies or can't handle death on a large
scale. The picture is here.

Wedding Update: We're still mulling over the reception/ceremony site. We
thought we had a place picked out, but after tallying up all the charges
and fees, we came to the conclusion that it may be a bit out of our
price range (maybe I should sell all of my stocks--heh). But we haven't
ruled it out yet. However, time is ticking by. We gotta get a place so we
can get started on all the other crap stuff.
