Care Bear Stare

Friday and last night. There were a gang of care bears running the streets of downtown. Was I apart of it? Heck yes I was. Who wouldn't want to have a gang of "drunk" care bears running around the downtown area. Stating the obvious, girls loved it, guys thought it was gay. Here's my theory on that, all the people that thought it was gay, wished they had friends that could pull it off, and take pictures with random people. Yes, I have no idea how many pictures I took with randoms… and that could be a bad thing, who knows where those pictures could end up in 20 years. or that is just me trying to convince myself that being part of a care bear gang was le-git.
Another thing I noticed, Halloween is just a time for girls to dress slutty, now I'm not complaining, because some of them can really pull it off. Props to them! But on the other hand, there are somethings that I and probably half the bar do not want to see. So next season, let's try to spread the word that just because the cover model on the halloween costume makes it look hot, doesn't mean it can turn anyone "hot".

Until Next Year Kiddies,

P.S. - Why can't we have a Halloween party when it's nice out, and not during the coldest weekend ever?

A Haunting

As I'm waiting for my strawberries to thaw out so I can make a morning shake, I turn on the TV and this crazy ghost show is on. They do this re-enactment of this ghost story with good looking actors (well better looking than the "real" people) and crazy paranormal activity goes on inside their house while the girl is home alone. She ends up freaking out on her husband because he doesn't take her serious when she tells him, "she had saw a ghost." Next day, the husband sees the ghost and chases it in their bathroom, and whips open the shower to find… (commercial break)… to find NOTHING! oh shit this is getting crazy!

So after another commercial break, they are playing cards on the floor and the girl sees the ghost behind her husband and starts to freak out hardcore. He turns and follows the ghost into the bathroom yet again, turns on the lights to see nothing, and the as he turns around to leave, (the good old mirror trick) He catches a glimpse of the ghost in the mirror and can hear the ghost scream, "Don't Kill Me!"
Skipping to better parts of this show, they end up seeing a new ghost, and this one attacks the husband. The dude says, "it was like a cigarette was burned on my chest." WTF… and then I missed everything because I went to make breakfast.

But with all these things about ghosts and spirits, doesn't this make you think this kind of dethrones the Catholic Religion? Aren't spirits supposed to go straight to Heaven or Hell? and if so, why are some still crawling around upon the "living" world. Crazy thing to think about.

Cherrio and be on the look out for those "spirits"

First EVER Recorded Cell Phone?!

I was going to check my Yahoo email account because that is my Business Professional E-mail. Front page Yahoo, has an article where FIRST TIME TRAVELER… so I check it out, thinking this can either be really dumb/hoax or REALLY awesome. So watch this before you read the rest.
ps. it's only like the first part of this video, and no, I did not watch it all. Here's the link:

{http://tv.yahoo.com/daytime/video/early-show-ellen-regis-and-kelly/22208433/ }




Alright, so isn't that crazy!? Let's look at this at a positive way. It's easy to denounce it being a hoax, a fake, blah blah blah. Let's leave emotion and first thoughts of this being non-realistic. So as we are looking at this... this person is obviously holding something up to their ear, and as it looks like they are talking. Also, No one made a big deal about this… People around him/her acted as if it was normal to be on a phone/device…CRAZY!

My first thoughts, is time traveling even possible? Thus, bringing up an epic conversation with my roommate about the theory of time traveling and the consequences of it. (should of recorded it…  epic conversation, I'll have to start a podcast soon)

So now, I'm going to use my logic to denounce this video. Maybe this is from a scene in a movie, and even at that thought.. how crazy is it that people from the 1928, could think of a cell phone.. I mean let's look back to our lives? Did you ever think that we could call/talk to our friends away from our parents' house phones? I remember calling my best friend's house asking, "Hi Ms. Hesch, Can Billy come our and play?"

Anyways hope you enjoyed this little clip and viewed it with an open mind.

Brillant Man, Almost Forgotten

So I banned myself of Facebook and Xbox Live during the hours of 8am - 10pm for a week, so all I do is visit Youtube, which I might have to add to the ban as I spend way too much time on the interweb. Anyways, this morning as I was cooking breakfast, Youtube's recommended videos popped up good ole' George Carlin. So to all that know him, and to all those that don't… let me remind you or introduce you to his brilliance.

"Staying Positive is the only way to go"

American Elections and Voting

Today I just saw a new story about, American Voters that went to vote for their Republican Representative and the voting machines switched their vote to the Democratic Representative when they submitted their vote. That really sounds bad especially since we are in the age of being quite tech savvy. Also I noticed today a certain news article, (located at bottom of paragraph), where Arizona has made it that illegal immigrants can now vote and their is NO NEED to check for citizenship. Is it just me, or is that just unbelievable. What has the American Government come to. I guess we will all have to sit back and watch how this plays out.

Cherrio,
