Damn, it's hot out there...

Yeah, I said hot. Hot as in, hotter than Georgia asphalt, that's how hot it is today. I made the mistake this morning of coming home from the SO's joint, and eating a light breakfast, and then laying down to take a little nap before going off to ride the bike. I say this was a mistake mostly due to the fact that I slept in a little longer than I should have, meaning, it's now 2:37 in the afternoon on Saturday, and I didn't ride, and now have no plans to do such a thing, as you can see from the title of this entry, it's amazingly hot outside. I did have a good dream though whilst I was sleeping, which I wrote down, because it would make a good action/adventure movie. I don't want to disclose it here, because then someone will lift it, and put it out before I get a chance to do it, and then, I'll be ripped off, and broke. Oh wait, I'm already mostly broke, so I guess there really wouldn't be much else to lose on that front of things. Maybe I'll share it with the general public someday, but right now, it just sounds stupid, but it was a cool dream to be sure. I was, of course, the center character, and it didn't end happily. Action? Adventure? A Jedi craves not these things. Yeah, well, the general public does. Maybe I should write a query letter, and at the very least, that guy who has a blog with the funny query letters could put mine on there and make fun of it. I would provide the link to this blog, but I can't remember what it is, hold on, let me look for it. Found it. If you want a good chuckle for yourself, check out the trash on this blog: http://queryletters.blogspot.com/ I guess I should not make fun, as mine should get up there sometime soon. I did a search for my own blog on Google, but alas, it doesn't show up anywhere out there. I guess that guy's blog is pretty popular, unlike mine which serves as a place for me to dump random thoughts of mine, political misgivings, and who reads it? I think my sister and the SO, and that's about it. If someone else is reading this, leave me a comment. It'll make me think I have at least one fan out there who I don't really know. And if you're family and reading this, you don't count. So comments from you. I wonder if the ex-SO reads this still? I sent her the link once, and she didn't like it I don't think. I honestly thought she would enjoy reading it, but alas, I don't think she did at all, and that's OK. When I sent her the link to it, I had forgotten that I had written things about the SO, and she didn't like reading that. Oh well. The SO kicks ass (plug for her here, as I know she'll read this at some point in time)! As a matter of fact, we're going to Costco this afternoon at some point in time. I love that place. Large bulk items are so cool. I wonder what I'm going to come away with when I leave that place this afternoon. Anything is possible I'm going to have to believe. I hear that they have some kick ass stuff. In other news though, I've got to get my ass back on the bike on a more consistent basis, that's all I'm going to say about that for now.

My roommate just got back from visiting Trek this past week, and he brought back this one brochure for Nike watches, and I've got to say, they look kick ass. I mean, I'd buy one right now, although I'm pretty sure they are going to be out of the price range I'm going to want to pay for a watch that is going to get jacked up at some point in time I'm sure. I already have one nice watch that I don't wear a lot now, why would I want another one that I wouldn't wear on a normal basis? For normal everyday wear, I've got the always reliable Fossil watch, which might get replaced this afternoon at Costco if I can find one that I like at a price that I like. But this thing is going on 3 years old with no issues, and it's beat down like an old dog as well. It's faded, smelly, scratched, been crashed, dropped, and smashed into walls and the roads around the Southeastern US, and it's still going. It's like a damn Timex, only better. As the last Timex I had, first time I knocked it around a bit, it failed on me, crapping out after only being on the wrist for like 3 or 4 months, and in my terms, that's complete unacceptable. I mean I should be able to trash a watch for days, months, and years without it complaining and dying on me. If it does, I never buy another one of those again. Timex is out. Completely out. The best watch for punishment I've ever had of course was the Casio G-Shock watch. That thing was a monster, and it didn't ever die, it just disappeared. I lost it somewhere, or someone stole it, needless to say, that thing was the bomb. Bulletproof it was, and word on the street is that the British SAS use them, so they can't be all bad if those badasses are wearing them into combat.

I know that this might be kind of old, but if you don't have the Red Light District by Ludacris, do yourself an immense favor, and get that record. I'm listening to it again right now for about the millionth time, and it's still awesome. I mean, any rapper who gives a direct diss to Bill O'Reilly is a favorite of mine forever. Basically he says, check me out Bill, I'm making a lot more money than you'll ever get, you're a creepy old man, and I'm bigger than the world. I guess they had some words when he tried to "boycott" Luda from being a spokesperson for Pepsi. That guy and his "boycotts". What a jackass. No spin zone my ass, he's a bitter old guy who shouts down his guests, and never makes hardly a valid point ever. I mean, that's the ultimate sign of me of someone who has no control over his own show when he has to start shouting people down when they start to make a good point, or if his guests are correct, and they have an opinion or a viewpoint that is different than his narrow definition of what's right in the world. He tells them to shut up, and shuts off their microphone. He does really deserve a good ass kicking I think. Seriously. Someone needs to knock his ass out. I'd love to be on his show, just to show him I can yell really loud when I need to. I mean, what reason would I have NOT to do that? I can't really think of one. Fair and balanced my ass... The no spin zone? The guy is a joke who sticks right to the RNC talking points for the day or the week. He's a tool of the Republican party, and of the Fox network, and even more so of Rupert Murdoch. Do I begrudge him this though? Hell no. He's making big money doing this and his radio show, and his books (as thinly referenced and researched as they are). He's making big bank, and I can't begrudge him that at all. Do I have to like it? Of course not, but hey, everyone has got to make a living, and he's making one hell of a living, and if he can look at himself in the mirror, which I'm sure he can, he's all good. I'd still love to get on his show though, damn that would be hot. I wonder if there is a way I can apply to get on there, and start my career as a professional pundit? That would be all good. I mean that would be a career I could embrace. I could spout off my opinions and get paid for doing it. That would be nice, ah very nice.

Anyway, I think I've had enough for today. Time to kick this out the box, and get some lunch. I mean, I'm damn hungry over here for some reason, even though I haven't done anything, and the SO is here so we can roll over to Costco ASAP.
