Beware my wrath

0505 (Custom).jpg
Hey Phillies, would you mind just playing the rest of your games on the road? CB Park is so nice, it seems like such a waste to have a team like you playing in it when we could have like kickball games and picnics and stuff there.

To the dumb chick who spilled red wine on me last night at McGillan’s: after you bumped me with your elbow for the third time and excused yourself (this all before before the wine incident), don’t you think it might have a decent idea to quit swinging your elbow onto my table? Good work.

Quizzo Bowl winners Where’s Johnny took sole control of first place in the Doc Watson’s Big $$$ Bonanza with their second first place finish in three weeks. The team then dedicated the win to Phil Spector, who is currently on trial. In fact, team member Brando Calfission even got a perm done just like the famous record producer. Here’s the standings after three weeks:
1st-Where’s Johnny-13 points
2nd-The Holy Pontiffs-11 points
3rd-Johnny Makes Me Wanna-8 points
4th-Dropkick Finkelsteins-4 points
5th-The Wanderers-3 points
6th-Claire Huxtable-2 points
6th-Corner of the Bar-2 points
7th-There’s No Dana-1 point

Best Burger in Philly

Glenn Macnow of WIP recently tried to find the best burger in the Philly area. His number one place, though, was in Trenton. WTF? Monk’s and Standard Tap both made the top 10. But I think I know who has a better burger than Monk’s or the Tap. Snow White, on 19th and Chestnut, has a kick ass burger (with cheese and onions) that seems even better than it really is because every time I go in there it’s a completely surreal experience. The staff is all asian, except for one black guy they call “Chef”. They all heckle and tease each other and the regulars, and there is always at least one person in there who is at least mildly insane. The last time I was there this old man walked in and hollered, “Give me a cup of coffee, mama.” He then turned around and saw that a lady was looking at him. “Stare all you want, baby. I may be 87, but I know I’m still beautiful.” You just don’t get that at Monk’s. Besides, their buns are too damn big. Here’s the story on the world’s largest burger (15 pounds.)

Un-friggin-believable

I was really having a hard time deciding between the contestants, so I didn’t eliminate any over the weekend, and decided instead to have the crowd at Doc Watson’s help me eliminate them. So last night, each contestant did a round, and then I gave the rather sizable crowd two votes. I then gave two points for a first place vote and one point for a second place vote. And the verdict was…incredible. This is no lie. Moose got 28 points. Pedro Mays got 28 points. Jam Master Sean…got 28 points. Krystyna actaully did pretty well, finishing with 19 points. I had planned on cutting two people, but I just don’t feel like I can do it with everything being so close. Sadly, I will have to cut one. I thought Krystyna did a really nice job, and I will definitely keep her on my email list in case I head out of town, get sick, etc. But she is the fourth person eliminated from the “Be the Next johnny Goodtimes Contest.”

Johnny Likes Intercourse

I woke up Saturday morning with a terrible hangover. I don’t normally drink tequila, but it had flowed like the river the night before. So at 10:15 I staggered out of bed and into the shower, ready for the days adventure to begin. All I knew is that me and my buddy Ken were headed for a place called Intercourse, and that there were going to be a bunch of Amish at the end of this particular rainbow. But this was one of those trips where I wasn’t going to do any research. I was just gonna head out there and see what happened.

My First Love

Brian of The JGT All-Stars (See O’Neals story. He’s the guy in back with the beard) is a Star Wars fanatic, so when I found out that he was going to be seeing the 12:01 screening of Star Wars III, I asked him to write a review. Here are his thoughts.

For the first 336 days of 1977, I was five years old. It was during this time that I fell in love?..and I fell hard. Now for all of you who don?t believe at love at first sight, I assure you that you are wrong. For my first love is actually still with me to this day, as beautiful as ever. And after all this time, she still possesses the ability to put a smile on my face despite my mood and lift me out to a galaxy far, far away. I refer, of course, to Star Wars (or ?Star Wars, Episode IV: A New Hope? as it has come to be known). And now, on the morning of May 19, 2005 I hate to say I am heartbroken. Not by the film, Star Wars, Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (which I saw at 12:01 this morning and it totally f@&^ing rocked), but by the fellow fans who felt the same as I did that fateful day in ?77 when they too were seduced by the ways of the Force. Allow me to explain.
