Oh the dilemma…

(seen just as I logged in to Aetna to check some stuff about my medical benefits)

RPA’s own BBQJunkie (aka Big Lu, aka Lu, aka Luis Emilio Ramirez) has a Honda Pilot DIY video up on YouTube. Checkit! It’s ok for the ending to be a bit confusing.

I’m flying to Denver and back for some work next week. This appeared on my booking (highlight is mine):

Please welcome Matt to the blogosphere with his blog “Is America Ready?”

As he summarized, it’s “A quick, funny and cynical Yahoo! keyword search analysis that takes a look at what is really on the American’s mind.” All yakking and describing and getting meta aside, his posts are plain hilarious. You gotta check out the first post where he digs into what people are searching for on search engined (you know, Google, Yahoo!, etc) given the whole excitement around the presidential race.

At the end of the day, the stuff he seems to be blogging about really captures what I’ve always believed to be true about Americcuuuh- most of this country is so obsessed with stupid nonsense (TV shows, celebrities, and other garbage) that its brains are being eroded and the whole “superpower” thing is soon to be part of the “glorious old days”.

So, stop wasting your time reading my nonsense, go read his blog, and, more importantly, buy some Britney and Paris Hilton CDs. America needs to be saved!

eCards. NEVER EVER FUCKING SEND ME ONE!

I don’t open them because I don’t want to see some cheesy cheap-ass clipart dancing to some annoying MIDI music. Write me a note and email it. It’s more personal. Or just don’t do anything.

A friend used the most priceless words over IM to describe someone:

Fucking Skeletor.

I’m dying!

East India Company is a company that, according to their profile, is in the business of “serving up market designer stores as well as distributors and resellers of repute around the world in the Home Textiles Industry.”

They’ve been around in 1971.

Someone forgot to tell them about the other East India Company. You know this one. The one that was “Based in London, the company presided over the creation of the British Raj.”

Seriously now… who was the genius who thought that name up? That person has to have grown up in a cave (or in Yankville- my new term for the US) to not know the history associated with the East India Company.

Wow, just wow!

As someone who lives, works, owns property, and pays taxes in the City of Santa Monica, tonight’s South Park Episode (Night of the Living Homeless) really hit the homeless nuisance issue dead on. I’m going to just quote the song that the boys sing at the end. To spare those who haven’t seen it yet, it’s after the jump.

About a week ago, here’s what Boston actually thought (click the still to play):

Apparently Anna Nicole Smith died- praise be to the Heavens (BTW, I don’t believe in god)! Now let’s hope that whatever killed her somehow hunts down the rest of the people like her. You know, the Tom Cruise, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears types.

I know for a fact that the world will be a much better place when the oxygen isn’t used up by idiots like these. Where the media has to report on real, consequential matters like two really fucked up wars that are causing hundreds of deaths per week. Where people look up to those who are intelligent, smart, and those who make a difference on the planet and not duffer scumbags like those named above.

All said, I am happy at Anna Nicole Smith’s death because some poor kid in Africa has one less person to compete with when fighting to breathe. I’m happy at Anna Nicole Smith’s death because we’ll get to see, once again, how the media is really a whole bunch of sensationalist nonsense that has lost sight of all that is real and important. I’m happy at Anna Nicole Smith’s death because it shows that these larger than life walking talking bags of trash can be wiped off the place of the planet. Finally, I’m happy at Anna Nicole Smith’s death because I think she had lived on way past her 15 seconds of fame and when it came down to it, she was really nothing more than a waste of precious space on this planet.

Praise be to the Heavens (again, I don’t believe in god, so this is really a different way of saying ‘Whoop dee fucking doo!!!’)
