No More Funny!
My Blog updates have become too infrequent, and they don’t seem to actually include many details about myself. I think that’s because I’ve been putting too much pressure on myself to try to make a humorous entry. If I can’t think of something I think will be funny, I don’t post.
The obvious downside to that kind of thinking is that if I can’t think of anything humorous, then I don’t update the blog for a month+ at a time. I’ve decided that kind of aggression will not stand, man!
So I’m gonna mix in some regular ‘ole "what did I do today/this week/this month/who died/was born/mutated/got married/etc" blogs. I hope you’re ready because it’s starting TO-day.
First up on the stream of consciousness: I was watching the TV here at work with the sound off and I saw a funny "lower 3rd" on the screen. Those are those graphics that pop-up during newscasts that give you some information about the person speaking. They say: "Joe Schmoe: local hero", for example.
Well, this must have been a story about a court case involving some women, because there was (apparently) a lawyer on the screen, and his lower 3rd said (I’m making up his name because I don’t remember it):
"Joe Lawyerman: Attorney for the women"
I thought that was absolutely awesome. I think he should make up business cards that say exactly that: "Joe Lawyerman: Attorney for the women (as seen on Channel 4 News)".
.
.
Besides that, the only other thing that I have to mention was this week’s episode of "24". If you haven’t seen this episode yet, for the love of god don’t read any further.
I’m.
Serious.
Don’t.
Read.
Any.
More.
Okay, now that we got the lazy Tivo junkies out of here, I just want to tip my forty over for my poor man Edgar Styles. First his mom was killed by Terrorists and now the big guy suffers the same fate all before getting the chance to hook it up with his dream girl, Chloe.
Sometimes TV can be so cruel. . .
My opinion on this season of "24" has gone up and down more than a Paris Hilton home movie (ba, da, bump. . .ding!), but I can safely say that the last couple of episodes have got me pretty riveted.
From Jack Bauer shooting Robocop’s wife in the leg, to the glorious return of the lovely Kim Bauer I can safely say that I HAVE BEEN ENTERTAINED.
And at the end of the day, that’s all you can really ask from the ‘ole idiot box.
Talk to you soon.

I think that’s a pretty entertaining blog entry. I like the change. -S

First of all, why aren’t people trying to be funny? I am saying you aren’t but it’s interesting enough to see you look back at your life. A little humor is just the icing. I much rather hear your life experiences or what not more frequently than once a quarter humor stories.
Second, that was gota be one of my favorite Jack Moment when he shot Murphy’s(Robocop)
wife. That was awsome. And wouldn’t be cool to think that Robocop is so good that he knows Jack so well. He just “pretended” he didn’t care about his wife and call Jack’s bluff. But he could easily be just a selfish prick.
