I've been working non-stop for the last month. and before that it was 6-day weeks. This weekend I'm getting Sunday and Monday off. What a concept. It caps off what has been a shitty week. Right now, I'm physically at work, and that's about it. The Little League college world series is on, and I'm more interested in that than work. This, despite the fact that I like neither baseball nor little league sports. So without further ado, here are those things y'all keep asking for.
1. What is the most unlucky thing that has happened to you all week? I asked a bank for money.
2. Do bad things happen more often to good people or bad people? Bad things happen to bad people. While what makes them bad is always subject to argument, everything happens for a reason. That's not to say bad things don't always happen to good people, just not as often, and we pay more attention to it. And often times we think the people are good and righteous, then it comes out that they did bad stuff to deserve their fate. That's right, I'm looking at you Mr. Vick.
3. How much do you believe that you can improve your outlook in life (from a “fate” perspective) by doing good deeds and correcting past wrongs? Your outlook on life has very little to do with your past deeds. This is a stupid question. I believe you can have the appearance of righting past wrongs, but they're there no matter what. What if OJ cured cancer? What if Hitler brokered peace in the middle east?
4. Take the quiz: What will happen to you in the future? This quiz is as stupid as the last question, I won't even acknowledge it.
5. Do you believe in fate, coincidence, or both? Both. They happen independently of each other. You can change your fate, but coincidences happen without anyone doing anything to cause them. If me and some crackhead whore both bought a pack of Big Red gum at the same Citgo station in lovely Southwest Atlanta at the same time, its a coincidence. If I were to beat her up and steal that aforementioned Big Red pack, it would be her fate not to have that gum. Not that I advocate beating women, or selling crack, or prostitution, or even chewing gum. I'm just saying... you can change fate, not a coincidence.
6. Overall, when “bad things” happen, how often do you believe the victim generally “had it coming?” Most of the time.
Just remember... there are two kinds of people in the world... and you're one of them.
1. Quiet evening at home or Out on the town?: Home, its closer to the bed and TV.
2. Watch a movie or Reading a good book?: Is Hemingway dead?
3. Order a meal or Cooking one yourself?: Order it... I can't make special sauce or french fries... And I don't have a Henny Penny to make KFC Original Recipe Chicken.4. Going for a walk or Taking a ride in the car?: The car. Walking is soooo last year.
1. You are driving down a lonely road at night when in front of you, you see __________?: Don Rickles
2. You stop the car and get out to __________?: Insult him.
3. In the background you hear __________?: The Godfather theme
4. You return to your car and __________?: Eat the Cannolis.
I waited a week to give my views on the Sopranos ending. Let me first say that my interpretation is no better than anyone else's. Even that guy at work who thinks he know FOR SURE what happened. He don't, you don't and neither do I. That's the genius of this ending. At first I thought it was horrible. We've been taught through years of watching movies and TV to expect a nice tidy ending. 
Don Imus. The only thing I ever hear about him is when Howard Stern makes fun of him. And over the years that's been a lot. Anyway, about his comment. He handled it all wrong. He should've said, "I said something stupid, and I'm sorry I said it." Then he should have gone on with his life, and take his lumps. Don't go on Al Sharpton, don't act like a cowboy... because it is obvious you ain't (Despite your stupid hat)! That made the situation even worse. It was the equivalent of saying, "some of my best friends are black!" He even slipped in the "you people..." during his apology. He apologized to the women he offended, and now he's going off into the sunset like the cowboy he wishes he could be. The bottom line, to me, is he should not have been taken off the air for saying something stupid... he should have been taken off the air for being a horrible DJ. A 77-year-old man trying to stay hip by using slang comes off as pathetic. Now he's a pathetic old white guy who has raised the ire of both women and blacks. Good riddance, enjoy the rest of your days with your creepy wife changing your diaper.
Will Ferrell is gonna do a movie about figure skating with Napoleon Dynamite. It looks to be the typical Ferrell fare, but still funny as hell. I'm sure Chazz Michael Michaels will be honored alongside such larger than life luminaries as Ron Burgundy and Ricky Bobby. It made my day to hear that Willie would be playing a character named Chazz. Too bad he spelled it wrong!
Yesterday I completed 34 revolutions around the sun. They always ask, "Do you feel older?" and for the first time ever, I said yes. I have gray hairs, everything hurts, I worry about bills and retirement, I worry about my kid's future, and a bunch of other stuff I don't 
Britney's New Hairdo. Who gives a shit. I feel kinda sorry for her. We all have our meltdowns, but we have the privilege of having them in private. On the same token, she knew the price of celebrity. My main objection is to the intense coverage of it. Who gives 2 shits that she's bald. It'll grow back. "Has she hit rock bottom?" Maybe she has, now what does it say about we (i.e. the media) who choose to publicize it to death? I'm sure the 24 year old mother of two in Peoria who isn't a pop star who shaved her head in the middle of a tattoo parlor wouldn't get a second look. I'm guilty of it too... I watched the video of her shaving her head over and over... and I looked at the pictures of her giving the paparazzi a gynecological view of herself numerous times as well. But then again, I'm a scumbag, obviously with a lot of company.
Anna Nicole Smith passes. I feel sorry for her as well. This woman had the best and worst luck all at once. But I totally understand how losing a child could take your soul. The woman was an idiot and surrounded herself with wolves in sheep's clothing. If the people around her had any respect for her, they wouldn't turn her death into a media circus. But of course that's like asking a leopard to take off his spots. My only hope is that her little baby lives the rest of her life in anonymity and normality. I hope she's not the Lindsey Hilton of the next generation. That would turn this tragedy into something much worse.
Crazy Diaper Astronaut. I got no sympathy for this crazy bitch. You're smart enough and have the drive to make it into space... yet you still got psycho hose beast sitting on the mental launch pad ready to blast off as soon as Johnny Spaceman gives you a glance. I hope this woman joins the Pop Culture Hall of Shame alongside Lorena Bobbitt, Amy Fisher, and OJ Simpson. People like that have no concern for the outcome of their actions. The families of all those involved are forever tarnished, countless hours of needless bullshit must be undertaken by police and NASA, etc.
All along the watchtower
