Random Thoughts…

(I have started 5 blogs in the last two days and after yesterdays clunker I didn’t really like any of them. So I decided to pull out what works… A little bit of random thoughts for you.)

- The British Medical association this week announced that doctors should stop wearing ties in order to fight super bugs such as MRSA Thank god. Maybe the idea of wearing a necktie is going to finally end. I don’t why men still wear them. They serve zero purpose and are now proven to be dangerous to people’s health. Yeah I know they are tradition and so were slavery, denying women the right to vote, hanging, and duels. I don’t see people hankering for any of those to make a comeback. Well except for the state of Alabama.

- So I sat down last night to check out what was hidden away in the tivo and update my tv show season passes because for some reason “The Shield” wasn’t recording. I noticed that someone in this household subscribed to “Emily’s Reasons Why Not”. I know the jokes have passed their expiration date like “Brokeback Mountain” jokes but screw it. I can think of five things that lasted longer than the entire run of that show.

1) Any sporting event not including boxing
2) An erection after a guy has taken Viagra
3) Me taking a shit the day after eating KFC
4) A box full of doughnuts at a police station
5) Me waiting in line at the DMV to finally get a California’s driver license

- Can I finally put the last nail in the coffin for all the “Chuck Norris” jokes? Please…

- Speaking of putting nails in the coffin. I guess Gun ‘n Roses are really going to release their cd this year. I think this is the 15th time I have heard this. At this point is any band less significant? Well besides the Bee-Gees. A couple of the tracks leaked and I stalked them down last night on the net, uh… not good… I can’t believe people continue to give this band any credence or respect. You have a lead singer that is 45 years old that has more botox in his face than Pam Anderson. The band has like 2 of the original members in it. I just want them to go away.

- I have EPMD’s song “Crossover” on my ipod and I am not ashamed to admit it.

- Wow Canada got bounced from Olympic hockey yesterday; I wonder how much Gretzky’s wife lost? ……I am such a fucking hack.

- In case you haven’t heard Lachey and Simpson are getting a divorce and Nick Lachey is filing for spousal support. I wrote my breakdown of their divorce back in November. And I can’t say I saw this move coming because I didn’t. I didn’t know if this was the ultimate bitch move or a reason to have this guy be my hero. She made like 30 million last year and if I have learned anything from watching Eddie Murphy’s Raw, he is entitled to half. If he gets this money and she continues to have to support him Nick Lachey can live every man’s dream. He will be able to run around Hollywood and nail hot chicks without ever having to step into a recording studio again. To me it is the most amazing development in this whole thing, well except for him asking for the jewelry he bought her back. Lachey can go into James Woods mode and just hang out at the Playboy mansion 24-7. You know his brother will be bailing on his wife soon because Nick will need a running buddy.

- I have said it before and I will say it again “Surviving the Game” is the most underrated movie in the last fifty years. Ice-T is a tour de force in that bad boy. I would even say he was better in that than he was in “New Jack City”.

- Is it wrong that when I am watching the women’s biathlon on the Olympics that I am hoping that one of the athletes snaps and starts firing their rifle at one of their competitors? Then it would turn into like a shootout at the ok corral but on skis. Wouldn’t you think if someone in last place that has worked their entire life to get to the Olympics would snap and pull out their rifle and start shooting the people ahead of them? I’m just saying… It would make for some great tv. Better than ice dancing.
