...I noticed something.
These screen captures are from the first episode at about the 8:30 mark.
That looks like a METRO bus... the thing is, that METRO is in Houston, not L.A. (at least I don't think)
Wonder how they pulled that off...

24: The Game
Platform: PS2
Players: 1
One-word description: Addicting
I mean like the GTA Series addicting. Most of my free time goes to playing the game. It's a challenge to the point that it can get VERY frustrating at times. There's a good mix of easy and hard levels and they tend to get progressively harder overall.
I haven't gone all the way through the game, but from what I have done of it, I'd give it a 9.5 so far. A definate buy, although people who don't watch 24 may not get it.
And if you don't watch the show, go get the first two seasons on DVD and watch them before you play the game, as it's set between seasons two and three, so you'll know all the backstories of characters before you play.
And there's no Nekkid Mandy. Yet.
No, she's not nekkid in that pic.
Favorite Bands/Artists
OK, maybe this'll kick up a little conversation... Maybe even a comment from the oh-so-shy Layla ;)
No, these aren't in order, just as they come to mind.
- Toby Keith - If you hadn't figured it out already...
- 3 Doors Down - Awesome band, and just as good live.
- Green Day - I've always liked them, but they didn't crack this list until I finally went out and bought American Idiot.
- Big & Rich - I just love their unique style.
- Nickelback - I'll admit it, Photograph made me cry. Not when I first heard it, but when I went back to Beaumont for the first time after Rita just to pick some stuff up and head back to Fort Worth. I was just close enough to Houston to start getting The Buzz and that song came on. Didn't realize until that moment just how much I missed being home.
- Norah Jones - Yea, I know. A shocker. The girl can sing though and her CD's are really relaxing, something I need a lot of sometimes.
- Trapt - Very underappreciated. I worked one of their concerts and was forced to hold the lead singer's butt during Headstrong so he didn't bust his head wide open standing on the barricade in front of the mosh pit.
I need to go pick up a few CD's sometime soon. I don't have any Hoobastank, but I like a lot of their songs. It's just me getting off my butt and going to FYE.
Any suggestions for me???

One more week...
...until Toby Keith plays Reliant Stadium during RodeoHouston.
You wouldn't believe how much I'm looking forward to that show.
So... uh... blogging will be light next wednesday. Well, lighter than usual anyways.
Yes, I listen to country. Don't like it? Tough.
Extreme Makeover: Sabine Pass
NOTE: I was going to post this yesterday, but decided to hold on to it for a little while.
No, I'm not making more changes to the template.
The Beaumont Enterprise - Extreme Makeover: Sabine Pass edition
SABINE PASS - At home, they lost clothes, mementoes and a place to lay their heads at night. When Hurricane Rita blew through five months ago, Sabine Pass students, the entire community really, lost something at school, too.
The school's theater had been home-base for a well-loved drama department and the site of Thanksgiving dinners, graduations and nearly any other large gathering in this small community at the southern tip of Jefferson County. By the end of the week, it will be a community hub again.
On Sunday, the cast and crew of ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" descended on the school for 240 students in kindergarten through 12th grade to start a project to revamp the theater interior. The new look will be unveiled at 2 p.m. Thursday.
I went down there about a month after we got back from the evacuation to drop a few boxes of books off to the school that Pineland I.S.D.'s librarian (who's family) wanted to give to a school down here that needed 'em. I was just amazed when I saw how bad that little town was torn up, but five feet of storm surge can do that. The school, which is less than ten years old, seemed to be the only building in town that came out with relatively little damage.

24: 4 P.M.-5 P.M. - Mutiny on the CTU Floor
Coming to you like random thoughts, as written on my notepad... in order:
This week, the pre-24 faire is back to Skating with Celebrities, this being the final... or at least the start of it.
My death count estimate this week is 7. I'm posting it here since B4B hasn't put the post up yet... and won't since 24 is on in like five minutes.
Sweet, the graphic violence warning... a great indication of a good episode :)
Logan's totally clueless about what to do since Martha's in the limo.
Wow... Martha totally pWN3D her hubby in that phone call.
Audrey... I may not like her, but at least he's doing the right thing trying to work around Lynn.
Yes Edgar, cover for Chloe. We'll get ya some donuts later.
4:12:49 - 4:17:02
Can I kill Lynn? He's really pissing me off. I promise to make it as slow and painful as possible.
Good work getting him in the office, Audrey.
So 11 mall rats died in the mall... just what I thought.
I have to admit, I'm a little surprised that that dude's cooperating.
4:24:50 - 4:29:12
Go figure Lynn ignores the motorcade threat. He must have scored a 6 on the Wonderlic Test too, just like Vince Young. For those that don't know, the average person would score roughly a 20.
Section 112, sounds dangerous. But if it gets Lynn out the pic, I'm all for it.
Honestly, I feel bad for Logan right now. Really bad.
YES!!! SECTION 112!!! GO CURTIS!!!
Awww... Lynn's feelings are hurt. Let me play him the world's smallest violin *rubs two fingers together*
4:40:44 (and no kills yet) - 4:45:12
Nice to see Bill back, my bet is that he scored in the 40's on the Wonderlic (out of 50).
Well, it's outta Logan's hands now.
O.M.G. This has gotta be one of the most intense scenes I've seen in a while.
Aaron saves the day!!! Did I ever mention that he kicks ass??? I'll say it. I heart Aaron.
No idea what the kill count is... I need a TiVo. Bad.
4:50:16 - 4:54:43
Jack... you seem to be fucked, my man.
Nice work, he came out unscaved.
5:00:00
LOOSE ENDS:
Well, B4B will be happy to see Kim back... but will the Cougar come with her???
THE USUAL CHLOE THOUGHT: My girl totally kicked ass tonight.
Two episodes next week... SWEETNESS!!!
Aight, that's all folks. Until next week, this is Justin saying "Don't be a meanie, wrap your weanie." Don't ask.
A change of pace
Next weekend (3/12), we'll be hosting the Carnival of the Cats, edition #103.
Consider this Bruiser's way of extending a paw in friendship.
I may even share my toys with you.
Aint he a sweetie???

Checking the sitemeter...
This is one of those things I added yesterday.
First off, anybody reading this, don't freak. I'm not going tp pay so SiteMeter can show me your full IP address. Even if I did, I don't know how to do anything more invasive than ping it.
I get more hits that I thought I did. Then again, I figured I was the only one ever looking at this place, so go figure. I've got people coming across here from the US, Mexico, and Austrailia so far.
None of those nasty, egotistical Mac users, everybody's got Windows so far. Surprisingly, someone's using 98. WHO STILL HAS 98 ON THEIR SYSTEM, REALLY??? It was a good OS BACK IN '98!!! Move up to XP, or at least 2000 for crying out loud. If you come back and see this, please feel free to explain yourself in the comments. I'd be interested to hear why.
I'm hoping to keep this on for a while and be able to gather some stats for possible improvements down the road.

MORE Renovations
I've made more changes to the sidebar. I've been busy.
And bored.
But I think I'm done for a while... at least the rest of the weekend
I gotta find better things to do with my time...
Saturday Dogblogging 2.25.05
This week, Bruiser joins us.
"Is that food I see???"
That's just a beagle for ya.
Tune in next week when I post another pic and some stuff with it. It'll be better, I promise.

babysitting
We've got guests... two of them.
We're watching two of my mom's dogs overnight... with our three, that's a handfull.
This would be great dogblogging material if I felt like getting out my camera.

More 24 Stuff: Chloe Naked???
Blogs4Bauer: Chloe Interviewed on Fox
Not a big deal... they try to insinuate that she might be a mole, but not so successfully.
And then she says "I'll tell you one thing that's happening: nudity. I have to strip to get a terrorist to talk. I challenge a terrorist to strip craps and lose."
But then she says some weird stuff and it sounds like she's making the whole thing up.
It's probably a joke, Mary Lynn Rajskub, the actress who plays Chloe, is a comedian by trade after all, but if it's true... well, I dunno what I'll do...
24: 3 P.M.-4 P.M. - DAMMIT!!!
Coming to you like random thoughts, as written on my notepad... in order:
This week, it's House before 24. I've never seen the show, but I've heard a lot of good things about it, so I'm excited :)
OMG I've fallen in love with House (the show, not the doc)!!! It's amazing!!! But the doc's cool too, kinda reminds me of myself.
2:00:00
First two kills right off the bat, some guy who trusted the government guys and a guy who doesnt know where Nathanson is. Wow, my guess on B4B is gone in the first segment.
Lynn, don't they teach you to keep stuff like your keycard somewhere other than your wallet??? Sheesh, I woulda known that. This situation will turn into something later on, I guarantee it.
Lynn doesn't need to go on an egotrip, he needs to go away, preferably at the hands of Jack.
The guy that called will certainly tell us something... too bad... wait... a blood choke on Curtis. He's out for the count.
3:13:16 - 3:18:24
Is it just me, or is Lynn not happy about Jack getting away?
Yes, Chloe, delete those phone logs. I <3 U!!!
3:24:15 - 3:28:25
Lynn's starting to piss me off on his egotrip...
YES!!! A FIREFIGHT!!! One more body by my notes, a guy in the building. that makes three.
Guy is on the roof and is being chased. He's cornered, so he's SOL, right? Right???
No, Jack takes out two more guys, making the count five and forces a heli to land by shooting it full of lead.
Jack gets the data from Nathanson, and he's dead. Make that six.
3:38:18 - 3:42:32
Martha knows about the call Logan got, she doesn't like it.
I hope Lynn dies. At Jack's hands. Bad. I hate him.
3:48:40 - 3:52:52
Chloe's doing her thing and gets the info.
The guy calls Logan at a bad moment and Novick (Who looks like Cheney, so don't go hunting with him) tells 'em the route. The terrorists deploy.
Uh-oh. Martha's gonna go with them. This aint good.
3:00:00
LOOSE ENDS:
THE USUAL CHLOE THOUGHT: Not too much of her, but she played a pretty signifigant role, so I'll take it. She's welcome on my couch anytime (Only one person will get that, so don't worry hehe)
Looks like the minions at CTU are gonna get some balls with Lynn. I look forward to the red shirts totally f****** something up.
That's all. Until next week, this is Justin screaming DAMMIT!!!

Piss-poor writing 101
Hometown News: President`s Day Closures
Huh???
Monday is a holiday. President`s day.
A majority of services will be taking the day off.
Most banks are closed, including most State and Local government offices are closed. No mail delivery.
Trash pick-ups maybe delay, checked your holiday schedule for your next pick-up day.
I hate this time of year
But not because it's cold, even if it is 39 right now...
It's Girl Scout Cookie season... we got four boxes of them.
They had to tell me about it too, didn't they???
If nobody had told me, I'd never known and wouldn't have eaten any of them.
I swear they're trying to make me gain back the weight I lost since I started working with Wes...

Saturday Dogblogging 2.18.05
Yes, it's another new feature here, loosely based on Friday Catblogging, which Laurence Simon oh so elaquently explains here.
"Bear's too big for me to beat up, so I'm gonna take out my frustrations on this toy," said Bruiser.
"He's smarter than I thought. Guess he realizes there's no way he'd ever catch me, much less beat me up!!!" Bear replied.Petey is a little camera-shy. He'll learn.
That's all for now.
P.S. My brother Jason took the pic of Bear, but since he used my camera I'm stealing it :)
Our newest addition
Everybody say hi to the "I must be losing my mind!!!" box that I just added to the sidebar.
"Hi box!!!"
Justin's Random Thoughts: Always looking for a way to make fun of myself.
Pissing People Off
I'm not the only one that occasionally takes great joy in pissing off people that piss me off, am I???
Anyone???

I say coke, you say soda, they say pop
Under the News: I say pop, you say soda
Well, that's interesting...
UPDATE: St. Louis leans toward soda, Beaumont Coke. I thought I'd be nice and not make you look it up yourself :)
Blogs I frequent
There are other blogs I read, these are just the ones I look at the most.
Blogs4Bauer: a very good "24" blog, and the inspiration for my "24 Report," which somehow draws a comment every week...
IMAO: Unfair. Unbalanced. Unmedicated. And good for a laugh with a conservative twist.
MeMo: I'm really not even sure why I read her. But I do.
mountaineer musings: SarahK does a good 24 recap too. There's also the fake sarahk site (or is it the real one?) by Cadet Happy.
TechBlog: Keeps me fairly up-to-date on tech stuff.
This Blog Is Full Of Crap: The only crap here is the stuff Laurence rants about... and his apparent inability to proofread. He recently started Catcall, a blog about cats on Chron.com and I'm a member of his Dead Pool.

A good reminder of why I'm moving...
I just had a talk with an ex of mine...
I won't mention what she told me, but for some reason no matter how bad something she says bothers me (tonight was REALLY BAD), I'm still attracted to her for some reason.
Welcome to my SERIOUSLY F***** UP life.
It's stuff like this that reminds me why I need a major change of scenery. BAD.
And why Houston won't cut it.
So, uh... St. Louis, here I come I guess...

24: 2 P.M.-3 P.M. - Let the Bodies hit the Floor
Coming to you like random thoughts, as written on my notepad... in order:
I wonder if this'll be another Audrey-free writing. I can't stand her at all.
Great, an Emergency Alert System test just before the start. This bodes well. Oh, good, it's over in time :)
Sweet, the graphic violence warning. A strong indication of a good episode. Or is it always there? I don't remember.
2:00:00
Wow... The dude never noticed it was someone else's voice.
Wait, how'd they find the chip? and get it programmed??? I'm sooooo lost.
Watch Martha's aide leak what happened to the press. Watch. It.
THAT WASN'T THE DEAL!!! THEY CAN'T TAKE JACK!!! Then again, this would be boring if they didn't.
2:13:54 - 2:18:13
They should go public with what happened. But they won't.
I'm starting to like Martha, she stands by her convictions. Maybe she's had the PResident's pair all along...
Is this a Saturday? If it is, the terrorists could take out a bunch of mall rats. "Like, OMG, those guys have gas masks." "The one on the left is like soooooo hott!!!"
For some reason, I think Bll wants to beat the crud out of Lynn. That'd be the guy's second time in an hour, after all.
2:24:57 - 2:29:22
First body hits the floor. Security guard.
I'd hate to be Logan right now, having to make that decision. I have no idea what I'd do, but I think he settled on the right decision.
Uh-oh, Jack's in trouble. This should be interesting.
2:37:24 - 2:41:45
Jack's waking up... good.
Kick-pinkytoe (shout-out to sarahk), Jack's doing what he does best, killing a guy when he's in a bad position. Second body hits the floor.
I don't have a hard body count on the people that were down because of the gas. Logan was told between ten and twenty, but Jack mentioned eleven before he walked out, so I'm sticking with that. That makes thirteen bodies on the floor. Way higher than my guess on Blogs4Bauer of five.
Wow. Jack gave that little girl his mask, awesome.
Jack and the girl are both OK.
I've never tried, but isn't it suppossed to be harder to hot-wire a car?
2:49:29 - 2:53:52
Yes, terrorist man, go back. Take us to your leader hehe.
Wow, I can't believe Martha chickened out. Wow. Maybe she doesn't have Logan's pair after all.
Poo, terrorist guy kills himself. That's the fourteenth body hitting the floor there.
3:00:00
LOOSE ENDS:
Another Chloe-light episode. I'm upset. Then again, Spencer's out of the picture now, maybe I can move in :-p
Waah, waah
Reuters: Flap brews over delay of Cheney shooting news
WASHINGTON -- President Bush knew hours after Vice President Dick Cheney accidentally shot a fellow quail hunter but the White House came under fire today for not making the information public until the next day.Why all this commotion about
Remember
You don't touch another man's meat.
Ever.
That's gonna be a good show, but probably underappreciated. Just like Arrested Development.
Remember, 24 is tonight.
I almost forgot...

Confessions
I killed a hippie in the 60's.
I also beat the crap out of a muslim rioter in the 70's
Oh, wait... I wasn't born until '85.
Guess it wasn't me after all.
Sorry.

My new toy
Magellan RoadMate 760 North America
I get lost. Very easily.
I figure this is worth the money to keep me from taking a wrong turn in St. Louis and never being heard from again.

24: 1 P.M.-2 P.M.
Sorry for the delay, but Blogger was down when I normally write this. Here ya go :)
Did I ever mention that Skating with Celebrities sucks??? I think I did... although I must admit that the show is starting to grow on me. They're actually pretty good... I think. I know very little about this figure skating stuff.
Spencer is a tool.
1:00:00
Cummings spills his guts with the background info. Prez Logan's screaming at him and stuff, he may be growing a pair after all...
Did I eever mention that Aaron is da man? Because he is, ya know...
Lynn's sister is pretty f***ed up.
Oooh, Sean Connery is gonna reprogram the remote for the canisters... What? That's not Sean Connery? I know, but he looks like him, so there! I WIN!!! *happy dance*
Spencer's coming back. Sweet. I wish I was him. Did I ever mention that I <3 Chloe???
Kim. Is. Coming. Back. This aint good.
1:13:35
That PayPass thing looks like a rip-off of Speedpass. I love my Speedpass.
1:17:53
Oooh, Martha slapped her idiot hubby, he deserved it. Jack should cut HIS eyes out.
And she's right about the Cummings issue, they should be honest.
Chloe's really pissed at Spencer... I guess I should be too. NOBODY messes with my girl Chloe.
Sweet, they got Sean Connery. I had a feeling they'd f*** this one up.
Go fig, the person behind the bed is nobody we know.
1:27:56 - 1:32:22
Doesn't the bike shop guy know better than to trust the terrorists??? What. An. Idiot.
Oooh, Sean Connery's not gonna get any pain meds... we all know what this means...
I can't believe that pussy Lynn, making Jack accept the deal. This is bull poo.
1:38:59 - 1:43:02
Sean may prove to be useful after all...
Oh F***!!! The girl's 15??? What a perv...
Letting Spencer go is the right move... clears the way for Edgar... or Jack... Just think, Jack and Chloe together. It would work.
Cummings? Suicide? Pussy.
1:48:18 - 1:52:42
<Millhouse voice>Ha ha</Millhouse voice> Lynn got his butt kicked. Sweet.
Bike shop guy. Didn't I tell you to not trust them? Are you st00pid???
Sooooo typical of 24, get someone to shoot and kill the important guy. It's always women too. You can't trust 'em.
2:00:00
LOOSE ENDS:
Overall, a good episode. And there was plenty of Chloe time, so it's all good :)
Monday, February 06, 2006
24: delayed
Blogger will be taken down for maintenance just after 24, so I won't get my post up until tomorrow afternoon probably, with work and all.
Petey
He's our newest member of the family. He's a Sheltie, about 6 months old that we "adopted" so to speak from my mom because he's not good breeding material with just one dropping.
He's a real character, fits in well with our other two.

Second Annual Super Bowl Predictions
Last year I got all my predictions right, let's see how it goes this year... probably not as good, it's gonna be a crapshoot.
For the Game:
Pittsburgh
The Spread:
PIT by 4½
This is a tough one. Really tough. My gut is it's gonna be a field goal though, so I have to go with Seattle here.
Over/Under:
47
Only a half-point off from last year, but these offenses seem to me to be better than last years, so I'm taking the over.
UPDATE: OK, so I got 1 of 3 this year :(. Admittedly, I wasn't very confident in my picks.

Note to self
Lone Star Times » Florida has no clothes
Note to self: NEVER go to Florida... and make sure the hooker isn't a guy.
Not that I've ever hired one. Or will for that matter. There are easier ways to get laid.
Unless you're my brother, who tried to beg me to let him borrow my Visa Check Card so he could buy his girl something that he thinks MIGHT help him finally get in her pants after A YEAR AND A HALF!!!

What sports car are you?
I'm a Chevrolet Corvette!
You're a classic - powerful, athletic, and competitive. You're all about winning the race and getting the job done. While you have a practical everyday side, you get wild when anyone pushes your pedal. You hate to lose, but you hardly ever do.
Take the Which Sports Car Are You? quiz.
24: Noon-1 P.M.
Coming to you like random thoughts, as written on my notepad... in order:
Why does Fox insist on putting the crappiest show on their run-down, Skating with Celebrities, on before 24??? It's total crap.
And am I the only one that can't help but say "on the day of the California Presidential Primary" after "The following takes place between...?"
I swear that Chloe is just like my friend Whitney.
Now, let's get to the Cummings and goings... :-p
Attacking Moscow??? Oh. Kay. We'll see how that goes.
I still can't get over that fight scene last week, it was so sweet.
PART 1 12:00:00-12:10:17
Jack's working with Pile o' Coathangers (MeMo's name for Audrey, attributed to her amazingly low BMI)..... can you say awkkkkkkk-weeeeerd
Jack's gonna leave Diane??? WHY??? She's 10x hotter than Pile o' Coathangers!!!
PART 2 12:14:32-12:25:34
Unlock Code Verified??? WTF does that mean? Something aint right...
Diane's got a point... if Pile o' Coathangers aint still got feelings for Jack, she needs to tell him. Apparently Jack still does.
I HATE LOGAN!!! WHY COULDN'T HE HAVE DIED LAST SEASON???
WTF? Cummings is coming clean??? You can't be serious.
All this to set up a military presence in Asia to get oil??? Riiiiiiiiiight...
PART 3 12:29:44-12:38:24
Bauer and Novak's meeting got broke up by the Secret Service. I don't like this...
I HATE CUMMINGS!!!
Jack might have a chance after all, Aaron's on the case.
PART 4 12:42:55-12:49:16
Jack's loose, thanks Aaron!!!
YES!!! Kick Cummings ASS!!! GO JACK!!! CUT HIS EYE OUT!!!
Crap. Cummings squealed and told him where the gas was...
Cummings is taken away, and Jack shares a moment with Pussy in Chief Logan. Jack *claims* he'll disappear again... probably in a little over 18 hours. I dunno why I think that...
PART 5 12:53:42-1:00:00
Logan tries to make up to his wife for wanting to ship her off to the nuthouse for thinking she was crazy, she has every right to be a bitch towards him. Yay Martha!!!
Edgar did some digging and found which crate the nerve gas SHOULD be in... give the man a twinkie!!!
They break into the container and find... a dead guy. No gas. Should have known, this is 24, not 6.
The terrorists found out about the detonators being changed out and are now gonna attack the U.S., shoulda known.
LOOSE ENDS:
This was a very Chloe-light episode. That's disappointing. I <3 Chloe!!!
What happened to Spencer? I have to admit, I was dissappointed to not see the little weasel that was boinking Chloe.
New feature coming to JRT today
Starting this week, I'll begin blogging on the episode of 24 this week.
One post a week. About the episode. Maybe more.
Until then, check out Blogs4Bauer.

Fading into Bolivion
As teased on Laurence Simon's Dead Pool | Dead Pool tease
You're right Laurence, my pick of Mike Tyson does suck.
But not for your reasons.
Yes, the man's a nut. Bigtime. He's even admitted it. "I'm on the Zoloft to keep from killing y'all," he once said
He also said "I can sell out Madison Square Garden masturbating." I dunno about you, but I'm not buying tickets to see that.
His craziness is the reason I picked him. I'm looking for him to do something really stupid that will get him killed, like a big barfight or something.
The pick sucks because now that he's retired, there's not really any news out there on him.
In the meantime, enjoy some Mike Tyson quotes.
Friday, January 27, 2006
Uh, there's something I need to do. What was it? *looks at wrist* Oh yeah!!!

I'm tempted...
I like cold weather.
I always have.
Cold weather this winter has been even harder to come by than normal.
I'm tempted to move to St. Louis right now just to experience some. I hear it's been warmer than normal there too, but it's still cooler than a normal winter here.
Seriously, I don't think we've had a freeze yet.

Me. Behaving
Yea, that's right.
I was at the bowling alley earlier tonight for league and the good-lookin new gal behind the counter at the kitchen asked me "what do you want?" because she apparently forgot I'd asked for a Dr. Pepper, so I said "Dr. Pepper."
Someone else that works there was at the counter with me and said that he thought that was rude, so she said "What do you want, sir? What would you like, sir?"
My response?
"If I told you I'd get slapped"
And that was behaving... for me.

All I want to know about her is weither or not she should be captured by the government as a danger to society. The girl has to be walking around with every STD known to man, and probably one or two that we don't know about. They're bound to kill her. That, my readers, is why she's on my roster.
Of course, knowing my luck, all those STD's are probably busy fighting over who's the best that they don't have any time to focus on what they're suppossed to do.
And before you ask, no I wouldn't hit it. Not even with a stolen dick, as George Carlin would say.

2006: New Beginnings
It's finally here.
2006 is gonna kick ass.
I've got some goals (I refuse to call them resolutions)
- Get in shape
- Move to a different part of the country
- Get into, and pass, the police academy wherever I move to
- Win Laurence Simon's Dead Pool
Well, maybe not the dead pool one, but the others :)
Speaking of the dead pool, I wrote about T.O. yesterday since he's on my roster. In it, I prophecy how he will meet his demise. Don't let me down Eagles fans, I know you can do it.
And happy new year to all three of my readers.

It should not be like this...
It's Christmas freakin Eve... and 70. About this time last year we were getting snow.
I guess it's better that we're not getting snow... people here can't drive in it for anything.

Not feeling too Christmas-y
It's been a rough year. REALLY rough.
Between losing three friends (yes, THREE), Rita, my usual problems with members of the opposite sex and all the other boring crap that goes on in my seriously fucked-up existence it's been a really tough time.
I'm just looking forward to 2006. It can't be any worse I don't think... unless my moving to a different part of the country turns out to be a total bust... which it won't. *crosses fingers*
I leave you with a gift straight from Belvedere on the West end of town:

Random thoughts
Strap in, kiddos, this is going to be a long one.
According to this, the Palestinians have expanded their "parliament" to 132 seats so they can say that they're "more democratic" than the 120-seat Israeli equivalent. What a joke.
Casey and Chaggy, the Penguins suck.
The Stars and Flames, however, are kicking butt and taking names.
The Texans o-line sucks so bad that I'm putting David Carr in my death pool for next year.
The Texans choke-job yesterday is the worst thing I've ever seen.
Harvard may be a big deal, but C students from public universities run the world.
A court hearing I was suppossed to attend this week got pushed back, so I'm pissed. I was looking forward to getting it over with :(
But that really isn't pissing me off too bad, my now-ex did a good enough job of that yesterday.
Isn't CIFOC awesome? And Isn't Billy-Bob the Elf the greatest?
That's all I got for today, kiddos. l8r.

Rita Pictures
Two pictures, both were taken on October 5.
Our front yard post-Rita. If you look behind the tree trunk in the front, you'll see the roots of the other tree in our yard that came down... much, much bigger tree. Maybe I'll go out later with my digital camera and take a picture of it... that one hasn't been moved yet.
Click for full size.
If you look to the right, you'll see an SUV that was OWNED by the Jack in The Box sign.
Maybe I'll get more up later.

Justin's not-so-excellent adventure
Rita's a b****
And so is spending 25 hours in a car to get out of her way.
I'm in Fort Worth. Our house didn't suffer any major damage, but the lights are out so there's no point in going back yet.<.p>
When we can, we will, and I'll post pictures... or something... whenever our internet is back up. That may be a while.

The return of Cindy Sheehan
Really? Last I checked a huge hurricane flooded a major U.S. city.
It has been one month and one week since I sat in a ditch in Crawford, Tx. I can hardly believe it when I think of it myself. So much has happened in that time, and really, so little.
Really? You should explore this just a little bit. Do you really know a thing about hurricanes???
When I reflect on how the mother of the imbecile who is running our country said that the people who are in the Astrodome are happy to be there, it angers me beyond comparison. The people in LA who were displaced have nice, if modest homes that are perfectly fine. I wonder why the government made them leave at great expense and uproot families who have been living in their communities for generations.
It's called an evacuation, hun. They do them all the time.
Even though Algiers [Louisiana] came through Katrina relatively unscathed, our federal government tried to force (mostly successfully) the people out of the community.
Yes, because the government has nothing better to do than be waiters for the morons who stayed behind. Oh, wait, the LA governor and mayor were pointing fingers the whole time. And we all know that expecting people to take care of themselves is insanely unrealistic.
They didn’t want to go to the Superdome, because their homes were pretty intact: they wanted to stay and have food and water brought to them.
Yea, because we all know that Bush warmed up the gulf to insanely warm tempratures and steered it to New Orleans. Riiiiiiight.
When I think of how many other poor neighborhoods are being decimated and made so desperate and hopeless by the failed policies of the Bush administration, it makes me so angry.
You should have told them who you were. That might have been enough.
One thing that truly troubled me about my visit to Louisiana was the level of the military presence there.But what I saw was a city that is occupied. I saw soldiers walking around in patrols of 7 with their weapons slung on their backs. I wanted to ask one of them what it would take for one of them to shoot me. Sand bags were removed from private property to make machine gun nests.
Yes, because that DVD player's going to get you out of town.
The vast majority of people who were looting in New Orleans were doing so to feed their families or to get resources to get their families out of there.
Maybe that imaginary one in your head.
America stepped up to the plate to hold George accountable for the abomination in Iraq.
I consider that an insult to my faith.
If George Bush truly listened to God and read the words of the Christ, Iraq and the devastation in New Orleans would have never happened.
Maybe when you shut up.
George Bush needs to stop talking, admit the mistakes of his all around failed administration, pull our troops out of occupied New Orleans and Iraq, and excuse his self from power. The only way America will become more secure is if we have a new administration that cares about Americans even if they don't fall into the top two percent of the wealthiest.

cindy sheehan commercialls
I've been watching a lot of CNN, FOX News, and the like this week... I'm a news junkie, what can i say?
<rant>
Anyways, today I started seeing these Cindy Sheehan commercialls on TV. They make me want to throw my TV out the window into one of the humongous vats at the ExxonMobil refinery near my house. Don't get me wrong, I feel bad for her losing her son and all, but I'm getting sick and tired of hearing about the b****. I'm not saying that the war was the right thing, I honestly do not know anymore. But pulling everybody out right now is the biggest mistake we could make. We made the mess, we need to clean it up. We need to make sure that the Iraqis are self-sufficient and then handle the pullout delicately.
It's either that or nuke the f***ing place and let God sort 'em out, and I don't like the latter idea.
So, Cindy Sheehan, SHUT UP!!!

Troops have support of JRT
President Bush's speech:
In this time of testing, our troops can know: The American people are behind you.
Next week, our nation has an opportunity to make sure that support is felt by every soldier, sailor, airman, Coast Guardsman, and Marine at every outpost across the world.
This Fourth of July, I ask you to find a way to thank the men and women defending our freedom – by flying the flag, sending a letter to our troops in the field, or helping the military family down the street.
The Department of Defense has set up a website – AmericaSupportsYou.mil. You can go there to learn about private efforts in your own community. At this time when we celebrate our freedom, let us stand with the men and women who defend us all.
To the soldiers in this hall, and our servicemen and women across the globe: I thank you for your courage under fire and your service to our nation.
I thank our military families – the burden of war falls especially hard on you.
In this war, we have lost good men and women who left our shores to defend freedom and did not live to make the journey home. I’ve met with families grieving the loss of loved ones who were taken from us too soon. I’ve been inspired by their strength in the face of such great loss. We pray for the families. And the best way to honor the lives that have been given in this struggle is to complete the mission.
I thank those of you who have re-enlisted in an hour when your country needs you. And to those watching tonight who are considering a military career, there is no higher calling than service in our Armed Forces. We live in freedom because every generation has produced patriots willing to serve a cause greater than themselves. Those who serve today are taking their rightful place among the greatest generations that have worn our nation’s uniform.
When the history of this period is written, the liberation of Afghanistan and the liberation of Iraq will be remembered as great turning points in the story of freedom. After September the 11th, 2001, I told the American people that the road ahead would be difficult, and that we would prevail.
Well, it has been difficult – and we are prevailing.
Our enemies are brutal, but they are no match for the United States of America, and they are no match for the men and women of the United States military.
May God bless you all."

Bad American
I couldn't agree with this more.
Written by Ted Nugent, the rock singer and hunter/naturalist, upon hearing that California Senators Barbara Boxer and Diane Feinstein denounced him for being a "gun owner" and a "rock star". This was his response, after telling the Senators about his past contributions to children's charities and scholarship foundations, which have totaled more than $13.7 million in the last 5 years:
"I'm a Bad American - this pretty much sums it up for me. I like big trucks, big boats, big houses, and naturally, pretty women. I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family - not some mid-level governmental functionary with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to crack addicts squirting out babies. I don't care about appearing compassionate.
I think playing with toy guns doesn't make you a killer. I believe ignoring your kids and giving them Prozac might. I think I'm doing better than the homeless.
I don't think being a minority makes you noble or victimized. I have the right not to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird or make me mad. This is my life to live, and not necessarily up to others expectations. I know what sex is and there are not varying degrees of it. I don't celebrate Kwanzaa, but if you want to that's fine - I just don't feel like everyone else should have to.
I believe that if you are selling me a Dairy Queen shake, a pack of cigarettes or a hotel room, you do it in English. As a matter of fact, if you are an American citizen you should speak English. My uncles and forefathers shouldn't have had to die in vain so you can leave the countries you were born in to come disrespect ours, and make us bend to your will. Get over it.
I think the cops have every right to shoot your sorry butt if you're running from them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word 'freeze' or 'stop' in English, see the previous line.
I don't use the excuse 'it's for the children' as a shield for unpopular opinions or actions.
I know how to count votes and I feel much safer letting a machine with no political affiliation do a recount when needed.
I don't think that just because you were not born in this country, you qualify for any special loan programs, government sponsored bank loans, etc., so you can open a hotel, 7-Eleven, trinket shop, or any thing else, while the indigenous people can't get past a high school education because they can't afford it.
I didn't take the initiative in inventing the Internet. I thought the Taco Bell dog was funny. I want them to bring back safe and sane fireworks.
I believe no one ever died because of something Ozzy Osbourne, Ice-T or Marilyn Manson sang, but that doesn't mean I want to listen to that from someone else's car when I'm stopped at a red light. But I respect your right to.
I think that being a student doesn't give you any more enlightenment than working at Blockbuster or Jack in the Box. I don't want to eat or drink anything with the words light, lite or fat-free on the package.
Our soldiers did not go to some foreign country and risk their lives in vain and defend our Constitution so that decades later you can tell me it's a living document ever changing and is open to interpretations. The guys who wrote it were light years ahead of anyone today, and they meant what they said. Now leave the document alone, or there's going to be trouble.
I don't hate the rich. I help the poor. I know wrestling is fake. I've never owned, or was a slave, and a large percentage of our forefathers weren't wealthy enough to own one either. Please stop blaming me because some prior white people were idiots - and remember, tons of white, Indian, Chinese and other races have been enslaved too. It was wrong for every one of them.
I believe a self-righteous liberal Democrat with a cause is more dangerous than a Hell's Angel with an attitude.
I want to know exactly which church is it where the "Reverend" Jessie Jackson preaches; and, what exactly is his job function.
I own a gun, you can own a gun, and any red blooded American should be allowed to own a gun, but if you use it in a crime, then you will serve the time.
I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If it makes you mad, then invent the next operating system that's better and put your name on the building. Ask your buddy that invented the Internet to help you.
I don't believe in hate crime legislation. Even suggesting it makes me mad. You're telling me that someone who is a minority, gay, disabled, another nationality, or otherwise different from the mainstream of this country has more value as a human being than I do as a white male. If someone kills anyone, I'd say that it's a hate crime. We don't need more laws! Let's enforce the ones we already have.
I think turkey bacon, turkey beef, turkey fake anything stinks.
I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child - it takes a parent with the guts to stand up to the kid and spank his butt and say 'No!' when it's necessary to do so.
I'll admit that the only movie that ever made me cry was Ole Yeller.
I didn't realize Dr. Seuss was a genius until I had a kid.
I will not be frowned upon, or be looked down upon, or be made to keep silent because I have these beliefs and opinions. I thought this country allowed me that right. I will not conform or compromise just to keep from hurting somebody's feelings. I'm neither angry nor disenfranchised - no matter how desperately the mainstream media would like the world to believe otherwise.
Yes, I guess by some people's definition, I may be a bad American. But that's tough.
Ted Nugent"

I'd rather be in Baltimore
What's in Baltimore, you ask?
The Astros, of course.
They're hot right now. 5 in a row. I went last night and watched a nailbiter. Lidge blew the save in the top of the 9th, only for Morgan Ensberg to whack a three-run walkoff HR in the bottom. They're turning it around.
That's why.
There's also other reasons, but I don't want to bore you with the details.

The Astros suck
Yes, I'm finally convinced of it.
I've seen enough to believe it for sure now.
I feel like going on a rant, though
<rant>
CLEMENS IS GOING NOWHERE (for now)
Media.
Are you listening?
Good.
Rocer Clemens has not asked for a trade and the Astros are not looking to deal him, OK?
Stop speculating where you THINK he might go and reporting it like it's real news and someone out there gives a rat's ass.
Don't get me wrong, He doesn't deserve to go out this way if it is his last year, but there's no talks going on.
Let it go.

WIFE: "What would you do if I died? Would you get married again?"
HUSBAND: "Definitely not!"
WIFE: "Why not - don't you like being married?"
HUSBAND: "Of course I do."

HUSBAND: "Okay, I'd get married again."
WIFE: "You would?" (With a hurtful look on her face)
HUSBAND: (Makes loud groan)
WIFE: "Would you sleep in our bed?"
HUSBAND: "Where else would we sleep?"
WIFE: "Would you replace my pictures with hers?"
HUSBAND: "That would seem like the proper thing to do"
WIFE: "Would you play golf with her?"

ACLU causing problems
Am I shocked?
No.
The ACLU has always had an agenda. It would be fine if the ACLU actually protected civil liberties, but since when did people who try to enter this country illegally have the same rights that American citizens do? Simply put, the ACLU's job, as they see it, is to undermine the government in every way possible.
The reefer thing, now that sounds about right. Those definately aren't normal cigarettes.

Astros first ST game was today
Astros 3 - Indians 7
Box score
Well, all I can say is thank goodness this is Spring Training. Redding, Hernancez, and Munro, who are all considered to be in the running for the 5th starter spot, stunk it up, all giving up at least three hits and two runs a piece in two innings of work.
They meet again tomorrow, and Clemens is suppossed to take the mound, so maybe we'll see something better.
But, like I said, this is early Spring Training, it really doesn't mean much.

The triamphunt return of...
Yes... that's right my peeps... random thoughts...
My hockey team sucks. You know it's bad when they get taken behind the woodshed in an 8-0 loss.
Poor Casey, getting ditched by the girl that he was trying to set me up with at the last minute. What a shame.
Spring Training games start this week. Baseball's coming, I promise.
Why is Anna so obsessed with some words, like... um... BOINK?
Why do you get things when you're not looking for them and never get them when you want them?
Why does the above apply to women more than anything else?
My little brother and his girlfriend have been together for a year now. Good for them.
The NHL is dead. The AHL will take over the top spot.
Why do I update this thing?
Why do I find it funny when someone shocks themselves testing a power supply at school?
There are three things you can count on in life: Death, Taxes, and ECHL referee David Jones waiving off at least one good goal every game.
I should do something crazy during spring break this year, but I probably won't.
Note to self: Buy Astros tickets
That's all I got for now. I'd post more, but I gotta go out to lunch with the family. Catch y'all later.
Friday, February 25, 2005
Hey Anna...
BOINK!!!
As far as a real update, you'll get one probably Sunday... Either a return to random thoughts or talking about the gal that my best friend Casey is trying to dump off on me Saturday night. Poor guy, being chased around by all these gals he's not interested in. I WISH I had that problem.

Baseball better than football
Thirty reasons why baseball is way better than football
By RICHARD JUSTICE
Copyright 2005 Houston Chronicle
Baseball is not just better than football. It's way better. It's the only sport that captivates us every day of the year.
From the optimism of spring training to the ebb and flow of a regular season to the electricity of the playoffs, baseball draws us in, gets into our heads and compels us to keep coming back for more.
Even the hot stove league interests us. If we had a dominant starter. If they'll give that kid from Class AA a chance. If the stingy owner would just spend a little more.
On and on. Endless possibilities.
Some of you won't agree with this assessment that baseball is better than football. My friend, you've watched too much football.
Take a break and remember how you felt when Jeff Kent's homer soared out of the park in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series.
Has football ever given you a thrill like that? No, it hasn't.
As you savor that memory, I'm here with 30 others that'll get your head right for the start of spring training:
1. Parity — Baseball has it. Football doesn't. Baseball has had five champions the last five years. The New England Patriots have won something like 20 straight Super Bowls.
No cheerleaders allowed
2. Cheerleaders — Football has them. Baseball doesn't. Never has. Never will. Baseball doesn't need sex to sell its game.
3. Major League Players Association — Unlike football, baseball has a union that's strong and vibrant and watches out for the best interests of its players. There'll never be a salary cap in baseball.
4. Fenway Park — There's a magic there unlike any other place in sports. There's a stateliness that transcends even the special things that have happened there.
5. The Rocket — Every time he walks to the mound, it's an event. At 42, Roger Clemens has 328 victories, 4,317 strikeouts and seven Cy Young Awards. There has never been one like him.
6. Cooperstown, N.Y. — Baseball's Hall of Fame is so splendidly done, it would be special anyplace they put it. But having it in this lovely village enhances what's special. Football can't even come up with a legitimate selection process.
7. Instant replay — Let's stop a perfectly good game for 15 minutes while a guy looks at a television screen to find out what happened. Baseball understands the human element is part of the game.
8. Craig Biggio and Jeff Bagwell — They're beginning their 15th season together. They define professional and performance.
9. Quarterback ratings — Leave it to football to make one of its most important statistics one that almost no one understands.
10. All-Star Game — It's one of the showcase events in sports. It even counts for something. Does football still play the Pro Bowl?
11. Slogans — Football coaches paste them all over their locker rooms as if players have to be constantly reminded that playing hard and being unselfish is important. Most baseball players get it.
12. SBC Park — Stand on the walkway behind the right-field wall and take in the bay, emerald green field, San Francisco skyline and smell of garlic fries. There might not be a better place on earth.
Box scores rule
13. Box scores — One of the most important inventions of the last 100 or so years.
14. Overtime games — You mean a coin flip could decide it?
15. Bud Selig — He's the guy in your neighborhood who almost everyone likes. He's revered by players and owners alike for his integrity and toughness. His legacy will include labor peace, wild-card berths, interleague play and record-setting attendance. He'll be the commissioner all future ones will be measured against.
16. Paul Tagliabue — If we admired smugness, we'd make him king of the world.
17. Janet Jackson — You don't have to ask, do you?
18. Dodger Dogs — Research shows they're as close to the perfect food as now exists. And the setting at Dodger Stadium ain't too bad, either.
19. Quarterback school — Is it where you go to finish your degree? Why does the NFL have so many of them? There must be some really dumb quarterbacks.
20. 56 — Every baseball fan knows Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak is the single most unbreakable record in sports. Or maybe it's Ted Williams' .406 batting average in 1941. Or Nolan Ryan's 5,714 career strikeouts. Baseball's numbers are more than just numbers. They shake memories, provide reference points and are unlike those in any other sport.
21. Ticket prices — Take out a second mortgage if you want to see your favorite NFL team. Better yet, come to the ballpark, where there are still good seats for under $20.
22. Milo Hamilton — He's not the radio voice of the Astros as much as he's the background music of our summers. It's the same with Vin Scully in Los Angeles, Marty Brennaman in Cincinnati, Eric Nadel in Texas, Jon Miller in San Francisco and others. They're constant reminders why we love it.
23. Autographs — Baseball players sign 'em almost every day. Football players don't get close enough to the fans.
24. Bull Durham/Field of Dreams — Baseball has inspired wonderful movies. Football has North Dallas Forty.
25. Ballpark nachos — They remain Arlington Stadium's lasting contribution to the game. They have all the basic food groups. Napkins required.
Don't need T.O.
26. Terrell Owens — Baseball would consider him a bore. Football sees him as a cult hero.
27. Billy Wagner — He's 5-9 and throws 100 mph. Next.
28. September — There's nothing like the grinding, relentless pressure of a pennant race. The season rides on almost every pitch. The players are physically spent and mentally exhausted, and yet, they remember forever how great it was.
29. Coaches who sleep in their offices — Does it really help? What exactly are you trying to prove? Baseball managers go to dinner, not to the office, after games.
30. The World Series — Nine days. Seven games. Curt Schilling's stitched ankle. Priceless.

NFL Playoff Predictions for round 2
ATL
PHI
PIT
NE
A note about the Philly, Minnessota game: On the last play of the game, Eagles FS Brian Dawkins will, in a tackle of Vikings WR Randy Moss, manage to pull down Moss' pants and cause him to moon the Philly crowd, which will immediately rush the field and kick his a**.

Why showing off is a bad idea...
I was over at a friends house today in Houston before the Aeros game I went to... we were outside watching her six year old brother who is just sooooo cute... She decided to show off how she can kick and get her foot above her head... Me, in one of my dumber moments, decided to try it even though I KNOW I'm a klutz and will probably end up falling on my butt... well... I did it and fell, managing to scrape my ankle on the curb on the way down... I'm ok, just hurting a little bit from the fall...
I'll sure think twice before doing that again.
Wish I'd had a video camera though.

Finals are done
I did pretty good for the semester, got my grades on Friday.
I've got a 3.75 GPA, making A's in 3 of 4 classes.
Now I just gotta figure out why they have a hold on me tomorrow. ARGH!!!

Well... this is different...
Sponsor makes plea to Beltran
Houston company to run ads in San Juan Star
I gotta say... it's corny, but it can't hurt... I don't think...
Finals are coming
Yep.
Finals.
They start next week.
Yippie!!!
Can you feel the excitement?
Good.
You should.
Monday's the last class day.
Tuesday's dead day, which is suppossed to be for studying.
But really, who does study all of dead day?
Oh, you do???
Dang, you're a dedicated nerd, aren't you?
Thought so.
Unlike you, I decided to do important stuff that day.
Like taking Bear to get his shots...
And Christmas shopping.
And... stuff.
So maybe I will have some time to study.
Of course, my first final isn't until Thursday, so I guess I could study on Wednesday.
Studying isn't just for dedicated nerds, It comes in handy for people seeking to get a CCNA certification too.
As soon as I get one of those, I can make tons of money.
And not come back to school after the spring.
Maybe.
I dunno.
I'm a moron.

I haven't done this in a while...
Yep, you guessed it... random thoughts!!!
Why the heck does the Cisco curiculum include something I'll probably neverr do... router programming???
Hockey season is finally here, thank goodness
Can Steven A. Smith really be any more annoying
What's wrong with you???
Am I crazy, or is it just everybody else?
What's wrong with me???
22 days may be a short time, but it's amazing what can happen in that time
That's all I got for now, see y'all later

A little remodeling
I'm going to be doing a little work on the design of this place slowly over the next few weeks. I've already started by removing the Bush Banners since we really don't need them anymore, as the election has occoured and Kerry is due to concede in about an hour.
