And now random thoughts...

You don't realize how much you miss diversity when it's gone, and all that's left is the same ole' same ole'. I feel like I'm living in the twilight zone...everyone looks like me!

Why am I so good at things I hate, yet so bad at things I love.

It pretty much rules that I can schedule all these blogger posts for a future date. It's like TIVO for bloggers. Oh TIVO... How I miss thee!

It's the first time I've ever used PIP (picture-in-picture) on my TV, and yep.. it basically sucks. Does this function still exist on newer TV's?

I was a little "homesick" watching the superbowl alone. The past two years, I've spent it with a good friend LYT at another friends house, eating ribs and watchin' the game on super-high def. I might have to save up for a weekend trip next year.

Obama EXPANDS GOVERNMENT! But, it's the kind of government that the right likes. Take a guess: either faith-based or military based. Expansion of government? How dare he! What's next, giving states more rights?

I have a ruler that's stamped, "Toys for Tots". I didn't know charities have advertising budgets. Oh wait, I just googled it and it's a Marine Corp thing. Weird.

I really like Elizabeth Banks. I can't remember anything I've seen her in though. I heard her Laura Bush was good. She seems like a really sweet, caring, fun person and has a great laugh. Hmmm... I smell a stalking!

Mattstradamus on the prowl again, I suggested in this post that some unregulated private businesses can care less about their customers as long as they continue to make profit and as it turns out, I was right. The peanut scare was due to some dumb ass greed corrupted business. Yes, it looks like they will get procecuted, but a little late, damage has been done. Hopefully we'll get the right laws in place to keep this from happening again.

Michael Phelphs will never live down this marijuana rap, especially since most comedians are hungry for a new patsy now that Bush has left. Leave the guy alone. Ridiculous. Would the same fallout come from a night of beer drinking?

If you say something to the effect of: "Well, of course I'd be lazy if the government paid for everything." Then, I'm more disappointed in you than the people that need welfare.
