Million Dollar Baby Drop

Were watching this fancy new Money Drop show. Ever since Who Wants to be a Millionaire, TV execs have been trying to find the next best way to dangle $1,000,000 in front of contestants on brightly lit plexiglass stages, while "clever" hosts make them wait for the the correct answers. While several of these have been exciting for a couple episodes, non of them have been that great. (I did like those Deal or no Deals.) This one, I predict, will be no different. At the most they get through seven questions in one episodes. Thats seven questions in one hour of show. WTF?! Give me half an hour of Trebek and sixty one questions any day. Perhaps they could add some booby girls to the Jeopardy but thats about it.

2010 Predictions week 10

OK, so now that all the teams have had their bye weeks and have played the same number of games and were a couple weeks further along in the season Ive got some revised picks. Im keeping the AFC almost the same except I think the Chargers will win their division and I think the Ravens are going to get a wild card and I think the Chiefs are out. Sorry Ravens, I hate to ruin everything for you but thats the way its going to have to be.

AFC
East: Jets
North: Steelers
South: Colts
West: Chargers
Wildcard: Patriots
Wildcard: Ravens

First Id like to say sorry to all the NFC bird teams. I was wrong about all of you. A Vick lead Eagles team should be feared any day. The Falcons are probably the best team in the league. The Seahawks will win their division simply because every other team in the west sucks. And the Cardinals, well, you suck. It doesnt matter how easy the rest of your schedule is.

East: Eagles
North: Packers
South: Falcons
West: Seahawks
Wildcard: Saints
Wildcard: Bucs

NFC
East: Giants

West: Cardinals
Wildcard: Rams
Wildcard: Bucs

No Eagles, no Bears and no Falcons. Thats right, the Rams.

Immigration Policy

After Senior Obama has completed his 8 years in 2016 Ill be old enough to run for President. I wont be a Democrat or Republican. I plan to run for president under the newly formed "Beard" party. Most likely youll have to right me in but nobody said change was easy.

Second on my agenda (second only to the abolition of apostrophes) will be addressing this whole immigration problem that seems to be so popular right now. The first thing Ill do is take all our troops and boats and guns and other things that kill people that are scattered all around the world and bring them home. They will then protect our borders. By borders I dont just mean an imaginary line across a piece of land. I mean the ports, the harbors, the airports and anywhere that a foreigner can get into the country.

Anyone who wants to enter (or leave for that matter) must have some general biometric info on file and if they do and are considered a good guy they may enter and exit freely. If theyre a terrorist they have to leave.

I also intend to make our imaginary line borders a lot easier to protect. All told we have over 12,000 kilometers (#3 on the agenda is getting on with the metric system.) of land borders, nearly 3/4 of which is with those Hockey lovers to the North. I intend for us to only have one land border and its only going to be about 80 kilometers long. You may already know it as the Panama Canal. In other words, were uniting with everything from the big ditch north.

So, if you live in Mexico now and would like to be in the same country as Arizona, California or Texas, do your part to elect me president in 2016. I promise a new nation that I will call North America and there you will be free to walk through the desert as you see fit.

Happy Birthday America

Well the terrorists definitely did not win. We went to the parade in EGR and Jack gots him some serious candy. More candy then would fit in his pockets anyway. Afterwards we stopped at Blimpie and filled our faces with delicious deli goodness. We took a little nap and then headed to the Postemas for some grilled meat and settin stuff on fire.

TiVoed

Ive been watching the World Cup a lot these last couple of weeks. The group round is pretty slow but now its starting to get interesting now that there to the round of 16. I love that the game has suppressed technology for years but I think they need to at least do something with goal line technology. A goal is a goal is a goal is a goal. I know it starts you down a slippery slope but hopefully FIFA can learn from the NFL and others who let the game get ruined with instant replay.

If I had Just One Wish

Ive lost 6.4 pounds in the last 2 weeks. Ive been counting calories. 2,000 a day. Hopefully by next week Ill be back down to 190 pounds. At that point Im going to up my count to 2,500. I think this week Im going to start exercising again.

Unpublished draft from April 20th:
TV on Tuesday night from 8-9 sucks. NCIS, Biggest Loser, American Idol and Dancing with the Stars results show. BARF. I wish ABC would go back to playing enhanced episodes of LOST.

Happy Mothers Day to my wife and all the other moms out there.

I used to think I was creative. Perhaps I was, but I dont know. I wrote a bunch of poetry. Sometimes Id like to get the band back together. Most of the time I dont feel like I have time.

I like putting commas in numbers. I refuse to put apostrophes in words. Its like the yin and yang. (' ,)

It always smells like an Asian restaurant outside my apartment. I wish my neighbors would invite me over for eating.

Michigan has gone smoke free. You can no longer smoke in restaurants and bars and its awesome. I loved it when we went out in Phoenix and its going to make going out here better.

Ill Buy that for a Dollar

Yesterday at work a bunch of middle schoolers were on a field trip doing karaoke before we opened. As they were standing in line to get on the bus to leave one of the girls pulled a dollar out of her pocket. A boy then got down on his knees and put his face in the snow for what seemed like 64 seconds. He then stood up and the girl gave him the dollar. Awesome! If this is the next generation then we have nothing to fear.

Its Like Beating a Unicorn to Death with a Bag of Rainbows

We took Jackie B to the doctor for his 15 month the other day. We were a little worried because we dont have insurance anymore. That wasnt going to stop us from getting our little man taken care of though. So, without insurance a routine Drs apt with vaccinations, costs out of pocket about half of what it cost us when we did have insurance. All that time, when I was doing things right, had the "good" job with the health care which was eating up nearly 25% of my take home, only to have to pay about a bazillion more in copays and then by the time my deductible was met for the year the year ends. FUCK YOU!

Are We Still Talking About Trucks?

More then two years ago I got it in my head that I was going to buy a big old F-250 and run it on used fryer grease. Well I got the truck a year and a half ago and didnt drive it much while we were in Phoenix. Now back in MI and delivering pizzas full time again, I drive the shit out of that bad boy. I still havent installed the Golden Fuel System in it but I am happy to say that Ive put 400 miles on the truck in the last 10 days and one third of the fuel was used fryer grease.  For a little over a week now Ive been running a 1 part grease 2 parts diesel fuel mix and its working out splendidly. I cant run straight veg yet but its a start.

180 Here I Come

A year ago I weighed 205.5 pounds. Today I weigh 196.9 pounds. So I lost 8.4 pounds last year. Not bad I guess. Its just sad knowing I was in the 170s for a while. Oh well. Time to look on the bright side and get things moving again. This time next year hopefully I can say Ive lost and kept off 16.8 pounds.
