20 questions

05-19-2006 008 (Custom).jpg
Alright, there is really nothing going on in the news that’s interesting or stupid, so I’m going to do something ridiculously self indulgent, even for me: I’m going to, for the first time ever, fill out one of those Myspace surveys. This one is about booze (I stole it from Smackdown). Here goes:
1. When was the last time you drank?
last night had a beer after work

2. Where did u drink at?
the Bards

3. Have you ever been kicked out of a bar?
yes, I was unjustifiably kicked out of McGillan’s, and I’m still pissed about it

4. Have you ever had an interaction with police while under the influence?
got an underage ticket when I was 20

5. How many drinks does it take you to get drunk?
I dunno, maybe 5 or 6.

Shakespeare game

A’ight, I’m posting pictures of winners. Finally. So I’m gonna post a Shakespeare line, and you post in the comments section which play it’s from. One guess per person. No cheating!

Live from the Eastern Shore of Virginia!

Hey gang, I know I haven’t posted the winners from last week yet. Well, I’m on a phone line here in the boondocks, so I’m gonna post winners when I get back to the big city this afternoon.

Ah, kickin’ it at home. And you know what that means. No showering or changing clothes all weekend. This is the life! All of my friends now have babies. I honestly hung out with like 7 children 2 or younger this weekend. It was weird.

My brother in law has direct ticket, so I saw the latest disaster on the gridiron yesterday. I can’t wait to hear the idiots on sports talk this week who think that Jeff Garcia should be our starting QB and that we need to fire Andy. Anyways, there’s no Movie Monday tonight, but we’ll be back in action manana.

This baseball poll pisses me off

Now, I know that polls are totally worthless and stupid, but I still want to take a minute to be pissed off at this one. The number one problem people had with baseball was the player’s salaries. What? I still have no idea why people hate to see athletes make what the market can bear. I really can’t. It would be different if anybody could hit a 98 mph fastball and these guys got picked out of a hat. It’s not. These are some of the most amazing human specimens on earth and thousands of people are happy to pay to watch them every night. Hey, if 35,000 people played quizzo every night, I’d expect to make $3 million a year too. Why doesn’t anyone think the owners make too much? Apparently it’s OK for old white guys to make a fortune off of baseball, but not OK for young people from a variety of backgrounds to make money off of it? I think that people are just jealous of young people with money, and they’re easy to lash out against. It’s just good old fashioned playa-hating, pure and simple.

North Korea’s creepy hotel

So I came across some info yesterday about the Ryugyong Hotel, which is located in North Korea and is one of the tallest buidngs in the world. Pretty impressive for North Korea, having one of the tallest buildings in the world, right? But here’s the catch: no-one has ever spent a night there and no-one ever will. Construction began on the building in 1987 and ended in 1992 when funds dried up and a famine began. No windows were ever installed. So now there is just a giant shell of a building looming over Pyongyang’s skyline, which has to be depressing, like when you have a dead plant in your room that you just never get around to throwing away b/c you don’t want to admit to yourself that you killed a piece of nature.

Break Up the Champs Week!

Yeah, things have gotten a little too predictable as of late, so drastic times call for drastic measures. Therefore, I will be breaking up the top four teams this week to make way for some new winners. The Kingdom, the Jams, the Minions, and MAGMA will all have their teams divided in half this week, with no division allowed to have more than 3 players. (Come on, you guys can handle it for a week.) It’s the first ever quizzo handicap, and will make it all the more impressive if those teams still win.

Cruel World

Yeah, so the haikus have disappeared. Unbelievable, but true. The hosts of this site are the Arizona Cardinals of hosting, so failure seems to be a weekly inevitability. Hopefully they will be finding everything that disappeared at some point. Maybe on an island somewhere or something.

Was that game absolutely incredible last night? I mean, I still think our choke against the Giants was bigger, but last night was still amazing. And the Edge had 36 carries for 55 yards. I’ve never seen a stat line like that before. Bet he wishes he stayed in Indy. And I’ve never heard of a single player have 6 turnovers and his team still win. Honestly, the Bears best offense was the Cardinals offense.

Most Definitely Megan Wins RPS Crown

64 competitors and dozens of their fans filled Whiskey Dix to participate in the 2nd annual PBR Keystone Classic on Saturday night, and they weren’t disappointed. Well, they were a little disappointed at first, when Johnny screwed up his opening rap. “I think this is a sign that I’m too old for the rap game,” said a distraught Goodtimes afterwards. “I’m hanging it up.” It would be the 2nd retirement of the year for Goodtimes, who retired from American RPS play after winning the city title in June.
