Why Why Why??

As long as we're discussing the shit that collects under the seat of popular culture, let's talk about this dingleberry.

Reminds me of a quote by DL Hughely
"Those of you who saw 'Soul Plane', I just want to apologize about that piece of shit. I cashed my check wearing a mask"

damn. I wish I was....

I should be cleaning up the apartment.
I know.
Friends are coming over tomorrow, but I am only partway through laundry.
What has impeded my whirlwind of cleanliness?
Hit Me Baby 1 More Time. They have 80's bands singing one of their big hits (In some cases, their ONLY hit. Haddaway" What is Love"?) and a current hit. The first episode had Loverboy and Tiffany. Episode 2 had Tommy Tutone and the Knack. This episode features Howard Jones, Cameo (WORD UP!!), and Sophie B Hawkins. Singer of 'As I Lay Me Down' and 'Damn, I Wish I was Your Lover'. I thought she was great in her 'Heyday', but she is AMAZING now. Beautiful, great singer. If you aren't watching it, you're missing greatness.

MJ is innoce.....Not guil.... they say there's no proof!!!

Yes, folks, Michael Jackson is off the hook. Good for him. Perhaps he can keep his exceedingly pale hands to himself for a while.
One of the best lines I heard called him the "teflon pedophile".

and taking a page from Ali's Book:

- Allstate Insurance says that drivers in Dallas are the worst in Texas.
FUCKING DUH!!!
Wow. With research like that, they should have cancer licked by the end of the week.

- Family Guy was great this weekend. High weirdness,

- I may have borderline high blood pressure, if the machine at work is to be beliveved. Scratch that. I have Stage 1 hypertension. Oh, and I weight 265. Think the 2 are related? I know I need to get on top of my weight. I don't need to be back down to my high school weight, but I could stand to drop a few pounds. I am not sure where to start. I try to eat pretty healthy. good breakfast, not too heavy a lunch, and dinner is usually ok. Maybe a little exercise. We'll see.

- having a house built blows dog, man. It should be great when it's done, but for now, suckness.

Mi vida loca?

This weekend has been very busy for us.
We spent much of Friday evening at a young girl's Quinceanera party, which, as a, well, white guy, was incredibly confusing and amazing all at the same time.
For those who don't know, a Quinceanera is the traditional Hispanic coming of age celebration when a girl reached the age of 15. To me, it looked a lot like a wedding with no groom. But, beyond that, you see a family , both born and extended, gather around a young girl and make it one of the biggest days of her life. On my 15th birthday, I'm not sure, but I had cake and ice cream, and a few presents. Hell, our wedding wasn't even as huge a deal as this party was!
The other thing this weekend was going to the birthday of the 8 year old daughter of some of my wife's adult ESL students. again, a large family gathered for thr bithday of their daughter. This time, there were burgers, some pool playing and the feeling of being accepted in a family, even though I didn't speak thei language. some things were translated, some weren't, and it didn't matter. They were wonderful people who opened their home and their hearts to us.
