pretty sweet...

wanna ride?

The great new Jack Links commercial in the Messin' With Sasquatch series. I definitely laughed at this one. I love the look on sasquatch's face when they come back for him the second time... so great

the seductive image

While cleaning up the apartment, I found my roommate's huge stacks of magazines (aka softcore porn), which I am sure he graciously left for me to enjoy (how could someone leave behind such a robust collection?). His selection swung both ways too, which is really nice. It did seem that his stack of magazines featuring naked men posing with their huge muscles dwarfed the ones with half nude ladies. But don't take my word for it, see for yourself.




I'm not judging his choices in magazine subscriptions, just commenting... Personally, I think having stacks and stacks of these kinds of magazines around is very unhealthy for anyone's self image and perception of others.

And that's all I have to say about that...

wear sunscreen

Don't worry about the future.
Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum.
The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that blindside you at 4 p.m. on some idle Tuesday.


Keep your old love letters. Throw away your old bank statements.

Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don't.

Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll divorce at 40, maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary.
Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much, or berate yourself either. Your choices are half chance.
So are everybody else's.

Trust me on the sunscreen...

All men dream but not equally.
Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible.

be the change you wish to see in the world.

No more flippin' burgers puttin' on my silly hat
You know I don't want that no more,
I didn't ask when we'd get paid,
I quit my day job anyway,
I guess it doesn't matter, I guess it doesn't matter anymore

You're gonna go to the record store,
You're gonna give'em all your money,
Radio plays what they want you to hear,
They tell me it's cool, but i just don't believe it
Sell out, with me oh yea,
Sell out with me tonight,
The record company's gonna give me lots of money and everything's gonna be.....

I don't think it'll be so bad
And I know it won't be so bad
'Cause the man said "that's the way it is"
And the man said "it don't get better than this" no no no

So I signed on to the record company,
They say they're gonna give me lots of money
If I play what they want you to hear
They tell me it's cool, and I sure believe it...

gross

a blood vessel burst in the corner of my right eye (sub-conjunctival hemorrhage) from the force of a sneeze (pollen / allergies). It has been like this for a couple days now and hasn't really gotten any better. So I thought I would record it and share...

Time to say goodbye...

It is the end of an era.
I have lived the dream.
I have my own arcade game and can play it whenever I want.
It has been quite a ride.

But now, as life and times are changing, I need to let go and pass on this joy to someone else. That and I don't really want to transport it to wherever I am going to be living next. So if you or someone you know are interested in owning an Area 51 arcade game (fully operational, great condition) follow this link.
It is worth the time and effort and money... without a doubt.
