Band Websites
Being an avid fan of Radiohead and Beck... I think that their websites suck. They're full of riddles and bullshit, and ZERO information. Beck I get the feeling just has nothing to say... Radiohead as usual are just being a bunch of fucks. Again, I love their music... but don't put up a website if it offers nothing. Fan sites offer so much more. The Smashing Pumpkins, and Nine Inch Nails have fantastic websites. Full of information, photos, videos, audio, downloads... The band members themselves update the sites... talking to the fans directly. To get an idea of what I'm talking about check em' out for yourself...

I Found A Bad Ass Frog...
I was out the other day putting up door hangers for our business and saw this bad ass frog... I wanted it... but I settled for a picture.
The Dream Has Become A Reality!!!
For YEARS I have been saying that when I get married I want my wedding ring to have the faceplate of the WWE Championship... Today I found the motherfucker!!! It exists! AND it's only $60! Now I just gotta get hitched so I can start wearin' it!

Cell Phone Ringtones
I fucking hate them...
I try my damndest to keep my phone on vibrate at all times. I hardly even feel the thing vibrate either. Now... I don't know what it is... but I have yet to hear a single ringtone that didn't make me want to take the phone and throw it out the fucking window. If it must ring, I like the ones that sound like a traditional phone ring. Girls tend to have the more annoying ringtones. I mean some of this stuff sounds like voices from hell...
I really liked the world better before cell phones...

Tommy Else: "Italian Hot Dogs"
So I tried something different... it was well documented.
I wanted to mix things up with my hot dogs... So I started with McCormick Italian Seasoning... I did so because I have yet to find a food on this planet that does NOT taste better for having McCormick's Italian Seasoning.
So, I start by microwaving 4 hot dogs for 3 minutes... and then warming the buns for 25 sec.
Then they are covered with your traditional Heinz Ketchup, and French's Mustard...
Mozzarella chese is then sprinkled over the top... the heat of the dogs will melt the cheese to just the right consistency...
Here is the finished product...
Mmmmm....

Phone Etiquette...
Let me just get this off my chest...
First off, I'm not a big phone guy. I have a hard time talking on the phone. This has only developed as I've gotten older. I don't remember always having this problem, but I do now.
Part of it's that I can't see the person I'm talking to, and have a hard time reading the person. So if they're being sarcastic or something I may not pick up on it. I don't know... maybe I'm just a pain in the ass.
Anyway...
What I really can't stand is when somebody calls YOU... you answer the phone and they're talking to someone else or not paying attention to you at all. It drives me nuts, I want to just hang up. OR if you're in the middle of talking to them, and they just start talking to someone else... it makes you feel so incredibly unimportant and like they were never paying attention or were interested in anything you were saying in the first place.
I don't know... just venting.

Yes It's True... I Can Really Eat 2 Triple Whoppers...
I went through the drive thru at Burger King ordering my usual 2 Triple Whoppers and a large fries. The girl at the window asked me if I was single handedly eating all of this food. I told her yeah! I've had a few people ask me if it's true... I then heard her inside telling the other employees that the guy in the drive thru was actually eating all of that food!!!
She handed me my bag and told me not to have a heart attack.
I looked up the nutritional information on 1 of them...

HIT_ME.Y2J
So Chris Jericho hit a fan...
Jericho is one of my absolute favorite wrestler's in the world. He's a huge reason why I got into watching in the first place. While the video footage is distressing, and isn't how I would expect Jericho to react... I can to some end see why he was getting frustrated. Still no need to strike anyone male or female. The security crew should have been keeping the crowd off of him in the first place. But minor mob scenes like that are also part of the gig when you're in the wrestling business and are as big of a star as Y2J Chris Jericho.
I'm disheartened by his actions. But it could have been worse. Everybody makes mistakes, and I still proudly support Y2J Chris Jericho.
This was the official press release regarding the incident:
CHRIS JERICHO ASSAULTED!!!
After leaving a live event in Victoria, British Columbia on Saturday evening, Chris Jericho's car was attacked by a mob when he was stopped at a stop sign. Unable to proceed, Jericho exited his car to ask the crowd to clear a path so he could continue through the intersection. A man and a woman physically and verbally assaulted Jericho.
Arena and WWE security arrived to establish enough order to allow Jericho to re-enter his vehicle and depart. The local police arrived minutes later.
Jericho was unharmed in the incident. The man and woman who assaulted Jericho were arrested.

The Velform Sauna Belt
If you are like me and find yourself watching infomercials all night long, might I reccomend the one for the Velform "Sauna Belt"...
If you'd really like to laugh your ass off this is the infomercial for you. It is one of the biggest pieces of bullshit I've ever seen in my life, and their claims are so fucking outrageous, it boggles the mind. You'll see them show some haggard woman whose 200lbs, and then show her morph into this fine ass 125lbs model. It's so much bullshit, I just can't believe that they're serious. That someone is actually paying for the television time for this piece of shit, and even worse that there's probably a whole mess of poor saps out there buying this thing that will soon be taking up space in their basement somewhere.
The infomercial is supposedly set in some sort of tropical island setting. The hosts of this comedic masterpiece are such amazing idiots you can't stand it, and then in the background they actually have belly dancers wearing the sauna belt. They persistently show you the unpleasant looking sweaty stomachs of everyone as they take this belt off. Amazingly however, guys who had guts when they put it on, take it off to reveal chiseled 6 pack abs. It truly is an amazing product... sigh. They also conveniently give you a book on their "never fail" diet plan. Which I think is funny, because if their belt worked the way they claim it does, you wouldn't need to diet. Oh! and don't forget the FREE measuring tape included in the package, so that you can track the inches as they sweat right off of you all over whatever you're sitting in.
Their claim is that just by wearing this belt you'll sweat the fat right off of your stomach, hips, and ass. Well, first of all it's not fat you're sweating off, it's water. Water which is easily replenished with the next drink you have. If in fact it does allow you to sweat inches off as they claim it does, this would be useful if you are trying to make weight for your next wrestling meet, or bodybuilding competition... even then you would expect that weight to have returned by the end of the evening. You most certainly aren't going to put it on, only to take it off an hour later and be dazzled with that 6 pack you never even knew you had. I guess bodybuilders and athletes of all kinds have been wasting their time perfecting methods on working and strengthening their abs all these years. What a shame. If only we had known about this belt sooner!
I've seen this a few times now... It was on one time as I was in the locker room in the gym getting ready to leave. It was amazing, every single guy who entered the locker room and heard even 2 seconds of this infomercial were stopped dead in their tracks, and had to watch this. We were all just dumbfounded that this could even exist. Within 5 minutes there had to be 10 guys entranced by this infomercial, just ripping it to shreds.
For a mere 2 payments of 39.99, you too can own this dieting miracle PLUS you can get a second sauna belt for half off if you order right now... or at all.

Like I said, if you need a good laugh... stay up one night, and look for it. It's one of the most hysterical 1/2 hours on television today.
Tommy Else... Virgo Goat
Virgo goats are perfectionists in their drive to help. Sometimes too critical, they are nevertheless basically well-meaning. They are usually more intellectual than other goats and need a job that demands intelligence to prevent their own boredom. The combination of the purity and crackle of Virgo with Goat dependency and love of luxury make for a rather uncertain personality type. This person's sturdy Virgo side wants to come across as a serious and efficacious worker. He bolsters his image so as to better believe in himself. But the languor-loving Goat invariably comes gamboling along and tips Virgo's rigidity right over. What we get then is a person with very strong opinions who is easily influenced and prey to those more crafty and less gullible than himself. The love and sex patterns in this oddball's life are unusually checkered. It's difficult for the Virgo born Goat to decide what it is he or she precisely wants in a sex partner. So they try many different ones, sample each for a while and then move on. This method of finding an ideal couple in which to thrive and grow, is, of course, hellishly unreliable. If you get yourself intimately involved with this character, you will be amazed the variety of techniques he or she has picked up along the way.
Virgo likes to attack back when confronted. Virgos need to receive a lot attention, adoration and gratitude. Virgos are accurate, competent and effective. They like rationality. Virgos like to help and solve problems quickly. They do not do it for compliments. Virgos are not wasteful. Being perfectionists, they like order and cleanness in their home. Virgos change friends often. They have only a few real friends because they give very special values to friendship to which other people cannot commit. Virgo is ruled by Mercury. Virgos are very bright and educated. They are good scientists, teachers, analysts and planners.
Virgo is the only zodiacal sign represented by a female. It is sometimes thought of as a potentially creative girl, delicately lovely; sometimes as a somewhat older woman, intelligent but rather pedantic and spinsterish. The latter impression is sometimes confirmed by the Virgoan preciseness, refinement, fastidious love of cleanliness, hygiene and good order, conventionality and aristocratic attitude of reserve. They are usually observant, shrewd, critically inclined, judicious, patient, practical supporters of the status quo, and tend toward conservatism in all departments of life. On the surface they are emotionally cold, and sometimes this goes deeper, for their habit of suppressing their natural kindness may in the end cause it to atrophy, with the result that they shrink from committing themselves to friendship, make few relationships, and those they do make they are careful to keep superficial.
But the outward lack of feeling may, in some individuals born under this sign, conceal too much emotion, to which they are afraid of giving way because they do not trust others, nor do they have confidence in themselves and their judgments. This is because they are conscious of certain shortcomings in themselves of worldliness, of practicality, of sophistication and of outgoingness. So they bring the art of self concealment to a high pitch, hiding their apprehensiveness about themselves and their often considerable sympathy with other people under a mantle of matter-of-factness and undemonstrative, quiet reserve. They are still waters that run deep. Yet in their unassuming, outwardly cheerful and agreeable fashion, they can be sensible, discreet, well spoken, wise and witty, with a good understanding of other people's problems which they can tackle with a practicality not always evident in their own personal relationships.
Both sexes have considerable charm and dignity, which make some male Virgoans appear effeminate when they are not. In marriage they can be genuinely affectionate, making good spouses and parents, but their love making is a perfection of technique rather than the expression of desire, and they must be careful not to mate with a partner whose sex drive requires a passion they cannot match.
They are intellectually enquiring, methodical and logical, studious and teachable. They combine mental ingenuity with the ability to produce a clear analysis of the most complicated problems. They have an excellent eye for detail but they may be so meticulous that they neglect larger issues. Also, although they are realists, they may slow down projects by being too exact. They are practical with their hands, good technicians and have genuine inventive talents, Thoroughness, hard work and conscientiousness are their hallmarks, and they are such perfectionists that, if things go wrong, they are easily discouraged. Because of their ability to see every angle of a many-sided question, they are unhappy with abstract theorizing. Appreciating the many different points of view as they do, they find philosophical concepts difficult, and they vacillate and have no confidence in any conclusions at which they arrive.

My Folding Chair Dillema
At my desk I sit at your standard run of the mill steel folding chair.
This is my 4th one. I don't know what it is I do to them, but I have crushed 3 already, and now this one is starting to fall apart... I'll wait till in completely implodes... and then go out and get another one... but it's just amazing how easily these fall apart.
