Flip Flops and Gun Drops

So I finally caught up on some zzzz's and some TIVO last night. After gorging my self on some spicy crunchy salmon and rainbow rolls, T and I settled into last week's episodes of Six Feet Under and Hell's Kitchen.

I can't believe we got sucked into a FOX reality series, but I think this one is pretty entertaining. Instead of Real World's "Who's Boofing Who", HK is all about the cooking. It is a mix of the Iron Chef and your drunk uncle with Tourette's. My only gripe is that there were only a couple chefs that really had the chops, and of course they landed in the final spots. I guess it makes for good television to see helpless FOOD Network geeks flounder in the kitchen.

Six Feet has reeled me back in as a viewer. It is not happy television by any stretch, but is a strong affirmation that family's can be the most junked up things on earth.

The weekend is again upon us, and will be catching some more Zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Freakonomics

I just finished reading Freakonomics. It raises some interesting issues, but none more so that the crime drop of the 1990s was due largely in part to the legalization of abortions via Roe v. Wade.
It claims that by legalizing abortions, there were far fewer "potential" criminals on the streets. I find that to be a believable argument, but when I was discussing it with folks in my office, I was greeted with looks of horror and disgust. I guess not everyone shares my views.

It is FRIDAY!! The weekend is upon me and I can't wait to get out of the office.

London Calling....911

There has been a terrorist attack in London. The underground commuter trains and a double-decker bus were targeted. This is yet another tragedy in the "war on terror". As terrible as it sounds, I find myself becoming desensitized to these attacks. I think I am a compassionate person, but why don't I feel more when these things happen?

In other news... Katie Holmes isn't quite ready to wed.. WTF?!? Who Cares!

Kun James Prophecy

So... We have just ended a glorious visit with Kun James. He is a guru of sorts and a father to all. His teachings fall into the rhelm of beer, cigars, parenting and zen buddhism. We miss him and his wonderful sidekick, RUNG! Wherever they are, what ever they are doing, I hope all is well!

Spare Change or Change for a Fifty?

Anyone out there got my back? Does anyone have some cheeze to float?

Well this will be another attempt at writing a proactive undecipherable blog. I will place some kinder thoughts on polo-tics and rescue pups. I will suspend my disbelief in all things pulp and pop, in order to blabber about it incessantly.
