Give Me a Fucking Break.

Apparently they thought that first video was so awesome that they had to make a fucking nother one. I think this one is worse, if that is even possible.

PHINALLY!


PHILLIES ARE THE 2008 WORLD SERIES CHAMPS!!!!!!1!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I was seriously hyperventilating during those last three outs. And how cute was Ruiz running to Lidge when they got that last out? Ryan Howard tackling them to the ground? Awesome! Doggy pile? Even more awesome! I have to say, the most nerve wracking three innings of my life!  The win was so epic that Akita actually called me on the phone.....I know.

Proposal Without Sound.

With sound:



Without sound:




I much prefer without sound.

Kaki King and Mountain Goats

Allegra wanted to go to the Mountain Goats concert at the Fillmore, and since she agreed to go with me to the She & Him concert next week and because why not, I went along with her. It was a good time. The opening band, whose name I honestly can't remember, was really shitty. They had a sitar player, and were trying to jam out, but no one was really feeling it, except the guy next to Allegra, and the guy next to me. Somehow we were bookended by the two guys who maybe enjoyed it. After the band was done with their set, a guy behind us was like, 'that really sucked.'

Then like a half an hour later Kaki King came one and performed. I had not hear of her before this, but she was like AMAZING. Her guitar skills were really like, I don't even know how to describe it. So I found a video of her unique talents.



this one is from the concert we saw:




Seriously so amazing. And the one guitarist was like really getting into playing his guitar. It was adorable. The one thing that really sucked is that there was this like super drunk slash drunk guy behind slash next to us who was like falling over himself. I guess it was his birthday since his one friend said 'happy birthday, man' to him like 50 times. Oh, and thy totally toked up during the show, which then prompted other people around us to do the same. Eventually his friends took him out of the middle of the floor, of course it was after a couple [I'm assuming they were a couple] behind us was like, 'you might want to take that out of here before he collapses, I don't want to deal with that'. Amen.

Oh, and Allegra and I had this moment where we thought we saw Andrew D'Ambrosi, of Top Chef fame, at the concert. There was this guy who totally looked like him. We seriously had a debate about it for like five minutes. At certain angles we were like, 'oh my god, it's totally him'. But then there was this one angle that like made it definetly not him. But then we see another angel and be like, 'maybe'. In the end we decided it was not him. This guy seemed too short, and if memory, and after looking at clips on youtube, serves me right, Andrew was kind of tall. This guy was not. Which brings me to this question: Does anyone know how tall he is? You would not believe how many places and how long I looked to see how tall he was. I could not find this information anywhere. It was really annoying. If you have this information, do not keep it to yourself. Oh, and we also decided it wasn't him, since he, you know, works and, I would assume, lives in New York, which is on the other side of the country. This story is almost as good as my story about how I almost saw Snoop Dog.

Anyway, then like 45 minutes later the Mountain Goats came on. They were really good. When the lead guy came out, Allegra was like, 'he totally kinda looks like Colbert.' I said, 'kinda' only because he ran out like Colbert wil do before an interview. But then it hit me who he really looked like: Michael Showalter. Like they could be twins. Then of course, the whole night while I was watching him, all I could think about is how much he looked like Michael Showalter. And his voice is kind of how I would imagine Michael Showalter to sing, nasely and geeky. Don't get me wrong, I actually really enjoyed the music and everything, just I could not get over HOW MUCH they looked alike.

In case you don't know who Michael Showalter is, ergo don't know what he looks like, here is an episode of his web series The Michael Showalter Showalter:



Ok back to the concert, you know those drunken douche bags who scream nonsensical shit at concerts? That guy was totally standing next to me. He happened into our area right before the Mountain Goats were about to go on. Trying to get closer and closer by edging his way forward. Allegra would not let him pass, even though he said, 'excuse me'. As Allegra, rightly, pointed out, saying 'excuse me' while butting ahead of someone does not make it more polite, nor does it sheild the fact that you are being a selfish prick by trying to butt ahead so that you can see better, all the while standing right in front of the people you just surpassed. Anyway, this guy mananged to get by Allegra, all the while being a total douche bag. Then the Mountain Goats started playing, and he started shouting out random shit, that really made no sense. And while they were playing he shouted random shit too. Like when Kaki King came back out to sing a song with the band, he shouted, 'Drill baby, Drill'. WTF. Thankfully this guy was not there the whole time. He had a tiff with his girlfriend, who kept fucking bumping into me, and they stormed off. THANK GOD.

Overall the concert was really fun, and made me a fan of at least two new bands (seriously, that first band sucked major ass).

Stupid School.

Saturday, I was sitting around watching the game, it's the 6th inning, and Chase Utley and Ryan Howard hit back-to-back home runs when, suddenly, my cable cuts out. The school was planning on cutting out internet/cable/phones at 10pm until 8am the next day. It was only 9:15, they were a full 45 minutes early. This particularly sucked, since it turns out the Phils won in dramatic fashion, with Ruiz scoring Bruntlett on an infield single, and I missed it. I had to watch it on the internet this morning, not nearly as exciting, since I already knew the outcome.

Stupid school.

Drill Baby, Drill!

Sarah Palin porn as read by Ricky Gervais and Thandie Newton. Results, hilarious.


John McCain Ads Redone.

What if John McCain hired famous directors to make his political ads?



Here are my thoughts.

John Woo-Not really sure what to say here, I don't know if I have ever seen any John Woo movies. A quick look on imdb says I have actually seen two Woo movies, Face/Off and Mission: Impossible II, both of which I really enjoyed. Face/Off a total guilty pleasure, I mean the plot is so convoluted, I mean a good guy [John Travolta] getting a face transplant from a bad guy [Nicolas Cage] in order to pose as the bad guy, but then the bad guy wakes up or something, and then gets the good guy's face put on his. So ridiculous, but so entertaining. I totally remember renting this movie when I got my wisdom teeth removed, along with I think The Cell and something else. Good times. And M:I II? That was back while Tom Cruise was still cool, and not crazy. Anway, way off point. The Woo portion of the video was ok, I guess. Don't really know John Woo style, besides slow mo action scenes.

Kevin Smith-They decided to go old school Kevin Smith and did the segment à la Clerks. Meh. The dialogue was not near fast enough to even be in the relm of a Kevin Smith flick. And while Kevin Smith has a penchant for the Star Wars dialogue, it was not near witty enough to BE Kevin Smith dialogue. Also, he only has ever made one black and white film, with that sort of style, so not really applicable.

Wes Anderson-I would say pitch perfect. The long one take, moving in slight slow motion with a Bowie song playing over it. Perfection. The only decent one in the bunch.

This Makes Me Smile.

Today I was reading ewwww.com, as per usual, when I read this article, which made me very happy.  It's an interview with Dominic Monaghan where is talks about making a guest appearance on one of my favorite shows Chuck.  EEEK.  So exciting.  I love me some Zach Levi, and I love me some Dom Monaghan, so the combination of the two should be legendary.  I really miss Dom on Lost, he was really the reason I started watching that show,  I mean he was epic in the LOTR series. I can't wait for this episode, too bad it's not going to air until February 2.  Sad face.  Oh well, I guess I will always have my first three seasons of Lost, I don't know if I have ever rewatched Charlie's last scene.  It was so sad, and will always be remembered with the song, 'How to Save a Life,' since my roommate was listening to her music really loud, and happened to listening to that song when Charlie's death scene was happening.  So fitting, yet so annoying at the same time.

Wanted.

This book:
I really like me some photography books sometimes.  This one seems really cool, this guy has been traveling around and taking actor's photographs in the half, which is the half hour before a show starts and when the actors are at their most vulnerable.  This book seems really nifty, too bad it's so expensive, like $60.  Why are photography books so expensive?  And why do they have to be so cool.  Here are some pictures from the book:

Daniel Day Lewis

Tilda Swinton

Cate Blanchett

Lia Williams

Does this book not look awesome, or what?

Phall Classic.

WOOOOOOOO!  Phillies win the first game of the world series.  I never thought I would be typing these words.  Ever. Yet, here I sit, typing these words.  This is a very exciting time to be a phillie phan, as I'm sure you're all aware.  

There are some things that have been bugging me:

like the instance of the commentators to only talk about the rays, and talk about how awesome they are.  

Every time Chase Utley comes up to bat, Allegra always, without question, says, 'ugly?' because when we were watching the first game against the Brewers, she thought the commentator was saying 'ugly' instead of 'Utley', because the guy cannot enunciate.

Cow bells.

Joe Madden's glasses.

Phall-I know I like to make f's into ph's, but whenever I see 'Phall' it makes me think of phallic.

But why am I bitching?  This is such an awesome time to be a phillie's phan.  I found this picture while reading the blog, the good phight, and it just made me giggle:


Too soon?  Maybe.  But awesome nonetheless.

You Stupid Boneheads!

The other day Allegra and I were watching the Rex Sox / Rays games, and we were talking about [or rather I was talking about] how the rays didn't really deserve the world series title, since they've only been a team for like not that long, so it's not they've been struggling all that long.  Then I said how the Phillies, for instance, have been a team for like 126 years [but really it's 125] and they've only ever won one world series title, almost 30 years ago, and that the city of Philadelphia hasn't won a title since the 76ers won it all 25 years ago.  In other words the city is due.  Anyway, I went on to wikapedia to see how long the rays have been a team, 10 years FYI.  10 years.  Oh please, it is not that great of a story.  Anyway, then I was looking at other teams, like giants, red sox, etc.

This is what the page looked like:
The game ended, red sox won btw, and then like a minute later I clicked back and it took me back to the red sox page.  But it was not quite the same:

2 Liters of Soda Really IS Too Much.

Allegra wanted to make this mosquito trap (for obvious reasons.....But in case you were wondering, it's to catch the mosquitoes that insist on attacking her at all hours of the night, forcing her to hunt them and kill them, that is if she could catch them. ).  So in order to make this mosquito trap, she needed a 2 liter bottle of soda:  That's where I come in.  Since Allegra doesn't drink soda, and being asian didn't want to just waste the money and toss the soda down the drain, and I do drink soda, it was my job to drink the thing.  And I totally thought I would be up to the challenge, until like about half a bottle later.  Man, my stomach was like, 'wtf?  WTF?!'  So we ended up tossing some of it out anyway, because my stomach could just not take anymore.   So now I have a tummy ache, due to excess of soda.  I don't think I will ever want soda again.  Or at least until the achy-ness wears off.

McCain after the debate:

it begs the question: What the fuck is he doing?




p.s. this has become like my favorite pic.

Dream Team















Being the huge West Wing fan that I am, I found this article to be very intersting, where Aaron Sorkin imagines a meeting between Barack Obama and Josiah Bartlet. For the uninformed, he's the fictional president on The West Wing, one of the greatest shows Aaron Sorkin ever made, and also in the history of TV. In all honesty, I know a lot about how the government works because of this show. Here is a sample of awesomeness:

Great. Moment.

Who's That Voicing the New Blackberry Commercial?




If you guessed John Krasinski, then you would be right on the money.

Small Political Blog.

I have been following this election since the beginning, a whole 20 or so odd months ago. And now it has gotten to this point, we have our two nominees and two debates have gone by with one more to come. This week, it seems, has really turned ugly for the republican party. They sense they might be on the verge of a landslide and will lose many seats in the house and the senate. The thing I find really disturbing is how much anger and violence has been popping up at the McCain/Palin rallies. Whenever they talk about Barack Obama, all sorts of scary negative things come out. They call him a 'terrorist' and one person shouted 'kill him'. These are scary things, that I hope people are watching out for.

The republicans are also trying to steer clear of the issues, since if this election were strictly about the issues, there is no question that they would lose. They've decided to attack Obama's character. Even here I think they lose. John McCain is like an angry old man, who would probably die in office. John McCain doesn't have the temperment to lead our country. He totally has a boner for war, and would probably start five more while he was in office. He has already talked about Iran as a threat, and he shows no signs of wanting to get out of these wars that we cannot win. This video further illustrates why McCain would not make a good president:



Now compare that with this video of Barack Obama:



These people seem super cool. I really hope they get elected. They are clearly the better choice.

Hahahaha.

That was the subject of an email my sister sent to me this morning. She had sent me an article from politico about how Sarah Palin had gotten booed at a hockey game. This is awesome on many levels. First, it shows just how tactful the fans of Philly are. They really don't give a shit about Sarah Palin, and they are going to show her what they think of her, and it wasn't pretty. I'm not sure she knew what to do in the situation. I guess the pageant girl in her just continued to smile and wave, as if nothing was happening. Second. SHE GOT BOOED! That is just so awesome in of itself.

Random Photo of the Week

Let's Get Ethical. Ethical.

This week's episode of The Office dealt with 'ethics' [embedded below] and really went back to the old, classic office. Jim finally tells the office that he is engaged to Pam. Apparently he had not told anyone in the office, for reasons unknown, and Pam gave him crap about it. The results were perfect. Oscar thought they were already engaged. Angela reminded him that was Roy. Kevin wondered if he still had to get a gift for them, since he had already gotten Pam and Roy one. Dwigt reminded Jim that Pam is not a virgin, and Michael tackled him to the ground. Perfection.

This episode began with Holly giving everyone an ethics meeting, and her first major meeting in the office. Michael gave her a hand, even though he's not sleeping with her. How kind. How did he help? By singing and dancing a song parody to 'Physical'. Awesome. Then the meeting went to hell, as it's always bound to do, and Michael offered people 'immunity' to dish on unethical things that they had been doing. Meredith dished that she was having sex with a paper rep for a discount on paper, along with coupons to Outback Steakhouse. TMI [I used to say 'don't go there' but that's so last year]. Meredith has always been a bit of a head scratcher. I don't really get her character, and frankly could do without her. I got hopeful that this was going to be the writers way of getting rid of her. But no, as it turns out the company HR doesn't really care. He would rather get the discount, especially in these hard finacial times.

The other thing this episode really demonstrated is some road blocks that may come up in the Holly-Michael relationship. Michael truely believes that his coworkers are his family, and I think genuinely cares about them, and would break the rules to keep them around. Holly, on the other hand, is a sane person, and ethical person. She firmly believed that Meredith should be fired. She made her point clear that Meredith was not her family. It was almost heartbreaking to Michael so heartbroken that she would do such a thing. His reaction was to steal the coffee pot and to cut in front of Holly to make a copy, of the plaque hanging on the wall, just to spite her. And when it turned out that Michael got what he wanted, how awesome was that speech at the end? 'How do you tell somebody, that you care about deeply, I told you so? Gently, with a rose? In a funny way? Like it's a hilarious joke. Or do you just let it go? Because saying it would just make things worse. Probably the funny way.' Awesome. Of course, Michael forgave Holly, after she got yelled at by the corporate HR rep, and let her give the boring meeting, that she probably had planned to begin with.

The other awesome part of this episode was some good old fashion Jim-Dwight-ness. In the first ethics meeting, Dwight claimed that he did not steal time away from the company with personal time. Of course, Jim being Jim couldn't let this slide, and started timing Dwight doing anything personal. Whether that be yawning or personal coversation or you know secret rendez-vous with a special lady from accounting who is engaged to be married to somebody else from sales. Which also brings me back to ethics meeting, when Oscar [who I seriously can't get enough of] was asking why they were talking about stupid company anti-shoplifting and not actual ethics about 'a real discussion of competing conceptions of the good'. Andy dopped an 'ethics bomb' and asked, 'would you steal bread for your family?' Did you hear the asside of, 'I took intro to philosphy twice. No big deal'. So Andy. Of course, Dwight being Dwight had to one up him and tell him that the bread was poisoned and it wasn't his real family since he had been cuckolded. This leaves me wondering how long Angela and Dwight can keep their little tryst a secret? You figure Andy has got to find out eventually, right? Angela wouldn't go through with marrying a man she can hardly stand, can she? Well, CAN SHE? I am all for Dwangela. Clearly the woman has got a soft side for the man.

Back to the prank. Jim starts timing all of Dwights personal time. It's starts off with yawning and personal conversation. Dwight, who wants to beat Jim at all costs, literally does not stop working. He even started peeing in a soda bottle, while doing expense reports, just to prove he is superior. He doesn't even give in, although you could tell he really wanted to, when Jim was falsely talking about Battlestar Gallactica, throwing in Dumbledore Calrissian. The only time Dwight relented was to get his freak on with Angela for 19 minutes and 48 seconds. Oh Dwight.

So that about does it, next week's episode will probably be just as awesome as this one. I only hope it features more Pam Beesly!

Awesome.

While perusing the internets, I found this awesome video. You just have to watch it.

In Case You Missed It...

...the VP debate, in one minute.

One Week Later.

Since there was no new Office episode this week because of the VP debates [Biden kicked Palin's ass, then handed it to her on a silver platter and forced fed it down her throat], I thought I would talk about last weeks opener. If you missed it, it is embeded, in its entirety, below.

Wow, what a way to start the show: With a Jim proposal. Awesome. The show was so fast paced though, I felt like I needed to watch it five or six times to get everything [and trust me, I have watched this episode, way too much]. One of the only bummers was the lack of the usual hilarious cold open. Next week, hopefully?

The one bummer of the episode, for me anyway, was that they got rid of the most awesome joke: Kevin being mentally challenged. That was my favorite joke from last year, and I was so excited that they brought it back this year, until Holly out and tells Angela off for yelling at Kevin because he's mentally handicapped. Couldn't they have saved that for like three or four episodes from now? That would have been awesome.

Then there is the whole Dwigt-Angela-Andy love triangle. If you can even call it that. It seems that Angela is getting her freak on with Dwigt, while leaving Andy out in the cold. It's like, I honestly can't believe they are going through with this wedding. I hope it does not come to fruition or else I will be bummed. Dwangela forever! Just for funsies, check out this website for an updated on the wedding plans of Andy and Angela.

Then, you have Michael and Holly. They are seriously the same person. Just the way Holly dodged Oscar after making a joke that she was gay, a very Michael thing to do. Make a terrible joke, that enevitably offends the person, then mumble and get the hell out of the room. These two were made for each other. I used to think that Jan was the perfect woman for Michael, but then I realized something. Jan is, as Oscar put it, 'clinically insane'. And Michael seems harmless enough that he should be with someone less crazy.

Then there is poor Jim, left in the office with no one to joke around with. Pam is off in art school, making new friends [and possibly a new Jim?] without Jim. I am kind of digging the separation thing though. The two of them were too perfect last season. Time to shake things up a bit, and create some new drama. That doesn't mean that I want them to break up. That would not be acceptable in any stretch of the imagination. That proposal was too awesome to get fucked up by 'distance' or 'other people'. I just like them having real problems.

I am seriously excited for next week, and an episode called Buisness Ethics. Should be awesome.

I Feel LIke I'm Taking Crazy Pills!

Week after week, Tina Fey goes on SNL. And week after week, people keep saying how hilarious it is. And week after week I am left scratching my head, looking blankly at my computer screen, while I try to figure out what was funny about it. Seriously. What is funny about those snl sketches with Tina Fey as Palin? I don't get it. Nothing is remotely funny about the sketches. AT ALL. I especially hate how they have people react to Tina Fey's Palin, with that retarded look, which by the way neither Katie Couric or Gwen Ifill reacted in such a manner [the worst was Amy Poeler's, who I normally like, Katie Couric. Such a bad impression! Queen Latifah, not that bad.] Here is what I will say, Tina Fey does a good Palin impression: she looks and sounds just like her. That does not, I repeat, that does not translate into the sketch being funny. It just doesn't. If that were the case, than Frank Caliendo [he of Frank TV] would be fucking hilarious [which he isn't. See below]. In fact, I find it to be the laziest of comedy, 'hey she looks like Palin, comedy gold!' Sorry, just doesn't do it for me.

Not Funny! Get the fuck over it people!

Pedometers Make My Day Feel Epic.

I recently bought a box of Rice Crispies [snap, crackle, and pop bitches], and with it came a pedometer. Clearly it is for a child, for it has Toucan Sam on it and is very brightly colored. Why they though a pedometer would be an awesome child's gift, is pretty obvious: it's an awesome toy. Don't all child love counting all the steps they take? I totally wish I had one as a child, that would have made it that much more awesome. Now that I have one, I have been taking my pedometer with me everywhere I go, and the results are shocking. Why just today I took 3,277 steps [stps for short, because why should I take the time to put in the e?]. Facinating. And on thursday I took 4,955 stps. Think about that, I took 4,955 stps.

Awesome.

A Ghost Closed My Door Just Now.

I was sitting in the living room, when my door shut for no apparent reason. I am convinced it was a ghost that is haunting my room. Maybe it was a student who used to live in my room, and like died, and is now revisiting the past. Maybe it's the person who put five nails together in a bunch, for no apparent reason. Maybe it's the person who killed several bugs, but did not wipe away the dead carcasses, whose smudges in history are still on my walls and ceiling. I am convinced it must be a ghost. What else could it be?

Can Someone Explain to Me...

....why people applaud at the end of movies?

This is something I have never understood. It doesn't make any sense. It's not like a play or a concert, where the people are there and you are acknowledging the fine work that they have just done in front of you. No. It's a fucking movie. Those actors cannot hear you, or appreciate that you enjoyed their performance. Neither can the director, or any of the other hundreds of people who worked on the film. I've seriously never understood why people clap at the end. Even when I was a little girl, I would be like, 'why are people clapping, there is no fucking point?' It almost like embarrasses me when people do. I am embarrassed for them, for making fools out of themselves, for applauding at nothing. So if you have an explanation, I am curious as to why people do such a retarded thing.



P.S. The only time it is acceptable, is when the filmmaker is there, and can hear your appreciation. Case-in-point, I have a contemporary filmmakers class this weekend, and all of the films we watched in the class had the filmmakers on had to explain their movie or their thoughts. So it would make sense to applaud and show your love for the film, or else it would be kind of crappy not to. In this case, it makes sense.

It's Frank TV!

The playoffs are shown on TBS. And on TBS they have this show called Frank TV. Since I am watching the playoff, I am subjected to countless hours of commercials for Frank TV. If you have not heard of this show, then you are blessed. At the very least you have probably been subjected to the worst TV commercials imaginable for Direct TV. In the ads, Frank does many of his mediocre impressions. Granted the dude sounds a lot like the people he is impersonating, but he look nothing like any of them. He barely even gets the hair right. It's like this. Think of George Bush. Ok. Now think of him shorter, fatter, and with really bad hair. That is what Frank looks like. The thing I don't get about this show, is why the network is shoving it down everyone's throats. WE GET IT. That guy can do run-of-the-mill impersonations of people that have been done many, many times before. Clinton, for instance, which, by the way, just sounds like Bush, so that makes it a doubly awful impersonation. But, the worst commercial is the one where he does his Jerry Seinfeld:





What makes this commercial so bad is that he looks nothing like Jerry. Nothing at all. The funny thing is, he actually looks a lot like George, except he sounds nothing like him. The one time he could almost pass for the person, and he doesn't get the voice down. What. A. Shame.

Random Things Heard From My Window.

'I used to be into mosaics...a lot.'

More P.C. Bullshit.

People are so damn sensitive these days.

First there were those people protesting Tropic Thunder because they use the word 'retarded in the movie.' No offense but that is retarded. In the movie, they didn't even mean it in a way that puts down retarded people, but rather to make fun of those serious actors who would only play a retarded person to get award recognition. That is seriously the most retarded thing I think I've heard. I don't think retarded means what it used to mean. Nowadays, it's more of like a put down, not like making fun of retarded people. I think Michael Scott said it best when he said, 'you don't call retarded people retards, it's bad taste, you call your friends retards when they're acting retarded.'

Now, this morning, I was reading huffingtonpost, and this article, and all I can say is: seriously? Blind people are going to protest the movie Blindness, because they feel that it is offensive to blind people. Are you serious. Apparently, they saw a screening of the movie and it just offended them so much. Come to think of it, how would they see a screening of the movie, if they're blind? How could they see what was on the screen? They're blind... These are just questions. Anyway, the movie is an allegory about what happens when communications break down, or something like that. Apparently what offends the blind is that, when this epidemic of blindness runs over people, they turn into savages, and are quarentined, and according to them, this reflects badly on blind people. Oh please. Give me a fucking break.

Patronizing the Vote.

Watch video:



Let me sum up the video for you:

don't vote
don't vote
ok maybe vote
maybe you should vote
no definitely vote
you have to vote
if you don't vote, I don't know what to say to you
if you don't vote I am going to murder you, you stupid piece of shit

I find this video very offensive, just the way they try and get the young people to vote. It's like, reverse psychology shit, but it is just so condescending and lame. 'You know you have to register, right?' No Jack Dawson, I had no idea that you had to register, I thought you just showed up and they let you vote. What the fuck do you think? Ugh. I feel like there has to be better ways to try to energize the youth into voting. This is not it.

Baseball

The playoff started today.  I know, most people do not care, and I have been posting a lot about baseball, but you all can suck it!  

Ok, that was a little hostile.  Sorry.

Today was actually a good day.  The Phillies won the first game of the series!  I had class during the game, so I had to keep track on my cell phone.  I didn't check it during class, that would have been rude to the professor, since I sit in the front, and he would probably notice me checking out my phone every five minutes.  But I did get to watch the nail-biter 9th inning, damn you, Brad Lidge, you always have to give me a heart attack.  But they won, first time since '93. That is huge, they kept rattling off some statistic about like 24 of 29 teams who win the first game, go on to win the series.  Let's hope that that is the case with the Phillies.  Fingers Crossed. 

Since there was nothing else on, I decided to watch the Cubs game as well.  They were not as lucky.  They lost.  While this is sad, all I can really say is...SUCK IT!!!  Yeah, my sister's team lost. Ha ha ha ha ha.

Sorry.  That was mean.  I apologize.


If I Wanted My Room To Reak Of Pot, I Would Smoke It Myself!

To the neighbors below me, who insist on smoking pot at all hours of the day, would you kindly smoke it else where! It totally smells my room up, and I don't smoke, ergo I'm not particularly fond of the smell of it. It attacks my nostrils. If you would smoke it somewhere else, that would be greatly appreciated, you stupid fuckers!
