Random Amusings

I like to write stuff. This is where I put some of it.

More things I think I think

1. Festivus was great. I had the Airing of Grievances by myself. I covered everyone that wasn't here. My fear is that now my neighbors have added me to their list for next year.
2. Jewish groups everywhere are holding Christmas Eve get togethers this year called "Matzoh Balls." This further explains why every good writers' room has at least one Jew in it.
3. Today, MSNBC had an article on its front page titled "Sex does the body good." You know what else does a body good? Me.
4. I think it is almost Christmas Day and I don't have a Chinese takeout place picked out. This indicates very poor planning on my part.
5. In addition to #4, I only have one movie from Netflix for Christmas Day - and it isn't "The Hebrew Hammer." My poor planning has ruined Christmas.
6. I don't get people who don't like coffee. It's so wonderful that a day can't really begin until I have it. My brain has a built in reminder system, where if I don't have my morning coffee, I get a vicious headache. It's great.

Did you write that?

I find it funny that I frequently check this blog to see if I wrote anything when I wasn't looking. I always feel disappointed when there is nothing new when I know damn well that I didn't write squat.

10 More things I think I think

1. Microsoft should just give up. OpenOffice is making them obsolete and Google is kicking their ass all over the internet. As soon as Google buys Sun Micro and pushes their OS, Microsoft is toast.
2. Have you ever actually met someone from Montana? Neither have I. I don't think Montana really exists.
3. I was voted "Most Likely to Succeed" in my senior yearbook. I feel like if I don't succeed, a really big jock will cockpunch me at our 10 year reunion. Since the football team went 0-12 that year, it will be the hardest that jock ever hit anything.
4. The older I get, the more I agree with the statement "You don't see things until you are ready for them."
5. If our government was really serious about reducing our oil dependence, Congress would pass an additional $2.00/gallon tax on non-commercial gasoline to be phased in over 10 years, with special exemptions for people who actually need a truck (contractors, painters, etc.). Make us pay $4.50-$5/gallon for gas and then we'll see how fucking fast we see have electric cars and alternative fuels. Right now the technology race is for pride. We need to make it for money.
6. I just watched an episode of Arrested Development for probably the 10th time and just got a new joke. I will never, ever, ever say that about Two and a Half Men.
7. I think everybody who complains about their childhood (which includes... well... everybody) should have to read "Running With Scissors." Tomorrow, I'm calling my dad just to tell him how much I love him. I am considering driving to Dayton just to hug him. If you ever hear me complain about my childhood, grab a copy of Running with Scissors and beat me with it.
8. 15% of the Bengals have been arrested in 2006.
9. Why do the Pussycat Dolls have a CD?
10. I have no idea when Hannukah starts. Frankly, I have no desire to go look it up, because at this point I can pick a random day over the rest of December and have a 40% chance of having it be a night of Hannukah.
