Ok. I’m having a hard time digesting this one. I’m not saying it’s fake. But I can’t believe 100% what I’m seeing. And it’s not just because the elephant draws better than me. Any thoughts?

Since this has been dragging on and on, you knew this was bound to happen. And you know democrats would love to see a dream ticket of Clinton/Obama. Or is it Obama/Clinton? Who cares. All I can tell you is that the picture above is a Dems wet dream right about now.
Is it Barack with a bad haircut? Or a better looking Hillary? Your call, my fellow Americans.

Car washes across San Antonio are about to get busy.
Yesterday afternoon, it basically started raining dirt. The sky turned from a blue to a kind of yellowish tinted color, and then it drizzled. And that basically put mud everywhere. I’ve never seen anything like it before. As you can see, it left a nice layer of dirt on the surface of my Jeep after things dried up.
I guess I should be happy, considering the Jeep was a little dirty to begin with. Now no one can say crap to me, since pretty much everyone is going to have “wash me” written by finger on the back of their vehicles.
According to the local weather experts, the cause of the rain coming down like this was a combination of ash and dirt in the air from a big fire in central Mexico. Way to go, Mexico. You never stop impressing me.

BTW, I know the begining of the video sounds bad with all the wind blowing. But I blame Mexico for that weather phenomenon, too.
Just when you think you’ve seen everything, you haven’t
TruTV, which used to be Court TV, has announced that they will air a new series called ‘Man vs. Cartoon’, in which normal everyday morons people try to replicate in real life what they have seen in a cartoon. Yes, you read that right. I don’t blame you if you don’t believe me, but you can read about it here.
So basically my expectations go something like this. Joe Idiot puts on some roller blades and straps an ACME rocket onto his back, waits for a roadrunner (or something of comparable speed) to run by, lights his fuse on the rocket in an attempt to chase said Roadruner, and basically kills himself. That’s when the family of Joe Idiot show up with an attorney and sue TruTV, which eventually leads them to again change the name of the network. But this time they change the name to reflect the ownership, which is now the family of the victim. You guessed it. TruTV is now IdiotTV.
But all that being said, I will probably watch it. I just want to see if they are actually going to drop an anvil on someone’s head.

Just saw the new that Heath Ledger was found dead in his New York apartment. I don’t want to speculate, but from what I’ve read so far, looks like it was drugs.
Rest in peace, bro.

Penelope Cruz and her sister Monica came out in a music video for their brother, Eduardo. In the video, the sisters share a lesbian kiss. And apparently this was their brother’s idea.
I can only shake my head here. It’s pretty obvious that this guy Eduardo needs all the help he can get to promote his crappy music. And nothing says “I know I have no musical talent” than getting your famous sister to make out with your hotter sister in your music video. But the fact that he thought this up may be a sampling of deeper issues. Eduardo, those are your sisters! You really want to see your sisters make out? And dance around you half-naked?? They are your sisters!! What the hell is wrong with you?
So in the end, the only ones that benefit from Eduardo Cruz’s crappy music ability and his drive for incest, is any guy not related to the Cruz sisters. Monica Cruz should definitely look into getting into showbiz. Very nice to look at. More so than her sister.
As for you, Eduardo, I hope someone finds you a good therapist. Jeez.

I hate shopping. Absolutely hate it. So over the years I have simply laughed at all the people waiting in line in the cold at 4am for the “Black Friday” specials. I never understood what the hell was so important to sacrifice valuable time (and sleep) for. That is, until I saw the ads that came out on Thanksgiving.
There was one particular item that caught my eye. And of all places it was being sold at, it was the one place I despise. No, not Best Buy as you might have guessed, but Circuit City. I worked at Circuit City for a couple of years right after high school. I did sales. And to no ones surprise, I’m not a salesman. So I hated the job. Throw in the fact that I dated the hottest girl that worked there, and all these dork managers that were trying to get with her suddenly started handing me the crappiest schedules. To sum up, I really hated that job.
Anyway, I broke down and followed the Black Friday herd. I got to Circuit City at 4am. Stood in line for an hour and a half just to get into the store. Then stood in line for another hour and a half just to pay for the stuff.
Was it worth it? I can’t really say yet. I haven’t set up anything that I bought for myself yet. The stuff I bought to give as gifts seem to be good deals, so at least I got that out of the way. And since I hate shopping, getting that out of the way makes the holidays that much more bearable.
I can’t say I wouldn’t do it again. But I now know what I would do to prepare accordingly. So, you never know. But if there is a next time, I’m definitely taking pictures.

Ok. I had a great weekend, with a little bit of weirdness.
Chase and Yvette’s wedding went off without a hitch, but if you ask them they may disagree. In the eyes of a spectator, it went off without a hitch. How’s that? Anyway, the rehearsal dinner was prepared by a gentleman who has been on Food Network. How many couples can claim that about their rehearsal dinner? I wish I could remember his name. Wow, that dude could cook. I almost overdosed on jumbalaya it was so damn good.
The ceremony was perfect. It was in a beautiful church. I would try to describe it but I wouldn’t do it justice, so trust me when I say it was one of the nicest I’ve ever been in. The reception was held in a hall that was actually used in filming the movie “Ray” with Jamie Foxx. That was a pretty cool tidbit. Maybe now I will watch that movie if only to see if I can spot where I was in line for beer.
So here’s where things got odd for me, if not just a little unexpected. Saturday, September 1st was the day of the wedding. It is also Yvette’s birthday. What does this mean? Well, for starters it means I will have a funeral to attend if Chase ever forgets the mammoth significance, but it also means that it is Labor Day Weekend in New Orleans. And that means it’s time for Southern Decadence, one of the biggest homosexual festivals in the country. Think of it as a gay Mardis Gras. Anyway, I saw some stuff that I never wanted to see. I don’t want to get into details, but some of the stuff I saw was just freakin’ weird. Yikes. But those guys seemed to be having a great time. And that’s what counts, right?
Anyway, that was pretty much the weekend. But dig this: On the flight from San Antonio I saw Vernita, a girl that works at the same company I do. And then on the flight back from New Orleans, working as a flight attendant was Farah, a girl I graduated high school with! And then on Bourbon St. I saw another guy I work with named Ruben. Small world.
So I had fun, some some stuff that will require time in thereapy, and now I’m back. It’s good to be back. Except for the work part.
