I'm using this for our Fantasy Football trophies

2010 NBA Draft

I like Wall and Al-Farouq Aminu... Wall 21-10 ast guy. Farouq can be an animal.
Don't like Cousens, Favors or Wesley Johnson.
Turner will be the best player on a bad team.
No use for Ed Davis or Cole Aldrich.
Like Udoh

Dont' care for anyone else.

Notes from Today

2 Notes from today.


I'm going to see the movie "kick-ass".


Mandi, a contestant on Real World Fresh Meat II, is the hottest Real World Challenge woman of all time.

3rd Note: Paula is the female version of a deusche bag.

Drinking at American Idol

Do they sell beer at these concerts or do you have to get plowed before hand and wear a floppy?

Trust

I saw a report on MSN.com and the headline read "Study shows successful people are better liars". I'd like to ask "by what standard, then, are they measuring success?"

I would like a more honest headline for something like this; a headline such as "Liars make more money".

I don't believe that making money in a dishonest manner is in any way successful. In fact, I would consider a person who does this a complete failure.

Getting What You Want

Figuring out the meaning of life never was that difficult for me or important to me. As animals, we're simply looking for anything at any given time that can satisfy us. As humans, we've learned to dominate obtaining things, so we're looking for something else. The human race has become bored and, over time, has begun to indulge itself in things with which we don't need to be concerning ourselves. We have begun to recomplicate things by striving for more.

I found out today that I personally will never have what I want because I'm not willing to do the things required to get what I want. I'll settle for that. I'll die as a sad case of woulda coulda shoulda. At least I'm not a has-been. I'm already a should have been. Soon I'll be a could have been, and by the time I die I'll be a would have been. A lot of 'ifs' will surround my life.

However, I'd recommend not measuring my life by all the things I didn't do but should have done. I'd focus more on the things I wouldn't do. There's nothing in life I can't accomplish. I've tested this out. I've proven myself capable of everything I've ever attempted. At this point, I don't make attempts. I make decisions. I can't recall the last time I've failed at something I've tried.

I hope nobody mourns these facts. Nobody should sacrifice who they are to satisfy expectations. If you don't understand what I'm talking about, then don't worry about it.

Signs of the Apocolypse (not really)

1. This Avatar phenomenon. To me, there are three aspects of a movie that would make someone want to see it.

An appealing story line or plot:

"In the future, Jake, a paraplegic war veteran, is brought to another planet, Pandora, which is inhabited by the Na'vi, a humanoid race with their own language and culture. Those from Earth find themselves at odds with each other and the local culture" from IMDB.com user Girgio_C.

 And dialogue/audio (also from IMDB):
Neytiri: To become "taronyu", hunter, you must choose your own Ikran and he must also choose you.
Jake Sully: When?
Neytiri: When you are ready

I'm sorry. I just don't get it. I understand why you have done what you have done, James Cameron, and I don't blame you. But please stop now.

2. This pre-uproar concerning the Tim Tebow commercial at the Super Bowl.

3.  Damnit. Look at this fucking picture.

 

4.The Saints won the Super Bowl.

5. The fact that I'm somewhat worried about getting some sort of sanction or fine for posting that picture twice.

6. Huessein.

7. My mom sent me a text message today.

8. I downloaded a Lil Wayne song on iTunes today.

9. Oh wait, what? That a-hole came up with his own language??? OH THEN BY ALL MEANS... GREAT MOVIE! Listen people, I came up with my own language in STAR class in 7th grade. Let's not get carried away.

10. Yes, I came up with my own language. Sort of. It was like two pages long. Enough to throw into a movie and pretend I came up with my own language. To break it down, this is to say some guy came up with his own language (something that takes years for a human to learn) and not only learned this language he made up but had learned and documented it so well that actors or robots or whatever the crap those blue things are could learn it. And they all had plenty of time to do all of this. You can't just throw in a few words that are all similar to

Orvi	Ilhlu	Itwa	Arfo	Essi	Uyze	Uwji	Igye	Owde
Opde	Ulru	Axqo	Efdi	Edca	Othnu	Awso	Esxe	Axgha
Uvzhu	Ujdu	Alhmi	Ucche	Echche	Osvi	Iyze	Oghsi	Ahma
Ophlhi	Uphzhi	Iphna	Enba	Ujti	Iffi	Ufqi	Ughdi	Icghu
Ibbi	Uzhpha	Osqe	Ipge	Ilhbo	Icle	Ecwi	Othpho	Ifbe
Oghshu	Izhwo	Ofka	Astu	Iqte	Iggha	Uhzha	Itxi	Efgu
Orva	Oshti	Edgu	Omko	Ivfo	Ihwu	Enthi

and then just say you made up a language because an actor read them out loud. (list taken from some web site I Googled. I just typed in "alien names" and it randomly generates this crap. http://www.abooks.com/alien/#Cvc).

11. There is a website online that randomly generates alien names for "us to use".

12. I visited and "used" an alien-name-generating website.

13. Carseat confessions.

14. My 2007 New Year's resolution

Alright enough of this, I'm thirsty. Can we all just please get our crap together?
