HEEHEE

From an email I received:

The next time you are bored and have nothing better to do, get out your cell phone, don't turn it on, but speak into it like the guy in this video.

Heehee

Funny of the day.

H/T: Atrios

After being away from work...

...I've decided that it really sucks sitting in my office. Time to be a free agent and find something else to do (yeah, yeah I picked a great economy to do that, huh?).

Somewhere over the past week Tyler Durden dropped into my brain.

I don't get it either?

Really, it's best to not ever catch up with most people from your past.

Is it me, or, unless you’re networking for professional reasons or you really want to get in touch with that chick that blew you off in high school (to remind her that you’re still a dork, apparently) does anyone else find Facebook a supreme waste of time?

And since I let Icepick speak for me about Facebook, here I'll let John Cole be my voice for Twitter.

Final 4 Picks

I'll put myself on record by offering my picks to go to this year's NCAA basketball Final Four. I probably watch about 10 hours of college hoops each week, but please do not mistake this as a testament that I'll do well in the office pool.

As follows......

West Virginia University
Missouri
Univ of Pittsburgh
UNC - Chapel Hill

In the championship game I have Pitt defeating UNC.

Random Thought

Just figured out the reason I no longer feel young: I didn't go out for St. Patty's day to go drink, fight, puke on the saw-dust floor of an Irish bar and I don't feel like I'm missing out. Had I felt the need to go out I'd still be young.

My less than fantastic voyage

thru the intertubes.

With a Maker's Mark and cola leaving water rings on my computer table, here's the sites I hit when I got home for work.

Another goddamn bad day with the market, let's see what Calculated Risk says: "Wek, it's a good thing you have low debt cuz your employer of 9 years has layoffs-a-comin'." Oh well, I guess I'll check my investments anyhow. Holy Jesus, I could barely buy a used Ford Focus with what's left. Well, I know it's absolutely retarded to buy one of the motorcycles I was looking at on Ebay, but let's see what they're going for today. I won't have a jobie-job, but I'll have a sweet bike. Over to YouTube to see a lunatic on a motorcycle that's on my wish list. Jeebus, this dude is going so fast it looks like the surroundings just threw itself in reverse. Since I'm on YouTube I'm feeling a bit musically nostalgic. Ned's Atomic Dustbin will do.

Okay, enough of this nonsense, these times are very serious so I need to get an update on what happened in today's political landscape. Greenwald? No. Captains Quarters? Nah. How about the wise asses at Sadly, No!. Hell yeah. Atrios, too? Sure. While I'm at it, wonder how the wingnuts are doing? Okay, I'll be serious for real this time. Counterinsurgency sparks an interest in me, as well as Military insight on the goings on of our fucked up country. Good enough for now, everyone agrees that everything still sucks. I'd hate to see unicorns and rainbows any time soon.

Man, if my girlfriend wasn't so hot (and unbelievably sweet) I'd be hoisting a few more bourbons and looking for a fattie here. For the record I don't know anyone that's ever met a hookup on Craigs List, but I'm sure it happens for the truly persistent.

Shit, my ice cubes are watering down my drink. That's what I get for putting it in a 40 ounce container.

Out!
