Email humor 12/17/2007
A little boy wanted $100.00 very badly and prayed for weeks, but nothing happened.
Then he decided to write God a letter requesting the $100.00.
When The postal authorities received the letter to God, USA, they decided to send it to the President.
The president was so amused that he instructed his secretary to send the little boy a $5.00 bill.
The president thought this would appear to be a lot of money to a little boy.
The little boy was delighted with the $5.00 bill and sat down to write a thank-you note to God, which read:
Dear God: Thank you very much for sending the money. However, I noticed that for some reason you sent it through Washington, DC., and those assholes deducted $95.00 in taxes.

What did I say?
So, I know you people are checking what the weather is like in Dallas, Texas. Just to put my two cents in...it F-ing sucks. If I miss another Saturday of tennis, I'm gonna be pissed.
So pissed that I just called the wife to say,
"Mother nature needs a good anal raping to get her ass straight and stop messing up my weekends!"
The wife says, "That was just wrong."
I say, "What? I was just saying..."
Okay, that's it. Go back to whatever you were doing.

Update: You know, I like using ScribeFire to blog sometimes. It's discreet for work when you want to blog and people around you not see the whole Blogger web page and colors. Anyway, what I hate is when they add this dame label above. I don't think they have an option to not add it so I have to log into my blog, edit the blog entry and the publish. What a pain in the ass!Thursday, December 13, 2007

What the human mind, body and spirit can do
I often am amazed at what the human mind, body and spirit can do in the face of adversity....amazed by the positive reactions as well as the negative.
This just happens to be one of the VERY positive...and yes, I got a little teary-eyed like the woman in the audience.

Finals
One more day and I will be done with the Fall 2008 semester. Accounting 2312 - Managerial Accounting will be in the books and checked off as "DONE!"
I think I'll pull a B- or B but not the A that the business school was looking for. No worries. I think I'm going to be in no matter what - well, as long as I make in the B- range or above.
My final is from 3-6 p.m. tomorrow, Tuesday the 11th. So, I have tonight to study and a few sporadic moments tomorrow morning. I need to study as I am pretty blank on what we covered in class at this time. That damn Thanksgiving holiday break screwed me up. It gave me even more time to forget stuff!
Oh well, back to work...or looking like I'm working at work but not doing anything at all.

Natalie Portman
I picked the two best picks (IMHO) from the blog, Egotastic to post here. I made one of them my desktop background on my laptop.
Other than the fact that I saw Natalie Portman's name, it also caught my eye with the funny heading of "Natalie Portman Keeps Getting Perfecter".
I couldn't agree more with that statement! So, without further adieu...

LCD HDTV
Well, I broke down last Friday and purchased an LCD HDTV. Best Buy had a pretty good deal that ended after 12/1/07.
They had no interest until January 2011 on TV purchases of $999 and up.
I researched and researched for months and months and did a little bit more when I decided on the brand and size I was going to buy. I just didn't know how much of a necessity it is. It's kind of like me buying an LCD monitor (19" or higher) for my computer. It's a really nice purchase but it's not a necessity as I have a 17" or a fully working 19" CRT.
Anyway, I purchased one Friday afternoon. It is a Philips 42" 1080p LCD HDTV...check the info here on the Best Buy web site. Out of 31 reviews and a 5 star scale, it rated 4.9. I think that's pretty darn good.
The price was $1,699 but I got it for $1,399 which is $40 cheaper than the current price right at this moment. Anyway, with a 4-year protection plan and 3-year interest-free financing...I think I'm golden!
I had to run my satellite feed from the back of the house over to the side of the house, drill a hole in the wall from outside to inside to get the feeds into the house and do all this other shit just to get the television installed. I installed the mount by myself and put the TV on it with the assistance of the wife and I'm still golden!
It's nice to watch. I don't have an HD feed from DirecTV yet but it still looks pretty rockin' with a regular satellite signal and the DVDs are pretty sweet. I'm even more golden.
So, here's a couple of shots of the TV...

Heroes season finale
I must say that TV shows and movies tend to end up disappointing me in some form or fashion...usually for bullshit happenings.
After watching the season finale of Heroes this evening, I must say it has once again fallen into the disappointment category.
Now granted, I am not some dumb ass that believes all shit that happens in shows/movies is real BUT there is a certain continuity that you must keep with the "fantasy."
Take for instance tonight with Heroes. Near the end, Kristen Bell's character (I forget her name) comes in just in time to save Suresh and gang from Sylar. He starts to dart out of Suresh's lab when Kristen's character shoots him with a bolt of energy. Sylar is thrown through the glass door but is able to...not a run or a walk but maybe...scamper away. Bullshit!
Let's flash back a few episodes to when Peter is walking down a hospital corridor after saving Nathan from falling from the sky after he (Peter) "blew up." He is struck by Kristen's character which renders him unconscious.
Flash back to the season finale....why didn't this same thing happen to Sylar? I mean Sylar is a little wimpier looking than Peter plus Peter can heal himself so the effects of the energy bolt should have been less than Sylars.
Also, I don't know how many Mexicans you have ever run into but how many do you know that are as trust worthy as the ones in the show...especially real Mexicans that were on the run in Mexico and run into this gringo and all of a sudden the sister is in "love"???
WTF ever!
But just like every other shit stick out there, I will return to see next season because I guess, yes, I really am a dumb ass!

COWBOYS
Brett Favre, after living a full life, died. When he got to heaven, God was showing him around. They came to a modest little house with a faded Packers' flag in the window.
"This house is yours for eternity, Brett," said God. "This is very special, not everyone gets a house up here."
Brett felt special, indeed, and walked up to his house.
On his way up the porch, he noticed another house just around the corner. It was a 3-story mansion with a blue and silver sidewalk, a 50 foot tall flagpole with an enormous Dallas Cowboys' flag, and in every window a Cowboys silver star.
Brett looked at God and said, "God, I'm not trying to be ungrateful, but I have a question. I was an all-pro QB, I won 2 Super Bowls, and I even went to the Hall of Fame."
God said, "So what do you want to know, Brett?"
"Well, why does Tony Romo get a better house than me?"
God chuckled and said, "Brett, that's not Tony Romo's house; it's mine."
