Good bye and sleep well, Mr. Hussein

Thursday, December 28th, 2006

CNN reports: ”Hussein’s execution must be carried out before January 27 or within 30 days after the Iraqi High Tribunal upheld the death sentence, as required by Iraqi law. That timeline means Hussein’s death could occur any day.”

Do you know what that means?  It’s an end of era like the death of Superman or Jeffrey Dahmer.  Maybe even Gerald Ford, I guess.  Think about it, Saddam has haunted well over the last two decades with his crimes against humanity.

Some may think that justice has finally prevailed.  Some may think that the worse and wonder, what is waiting in the wings?  What are the new threats?  North Korea?  China?  Iceland?

Either way, the man known as Saddam Hussein will be led to rest by a good old-fashioned hanging.  That would be a heck of a Pay-Per-View event.  Right?  You know, get some family and friends together, throw some steaks on the grill, make some margaritas, and watch Saddam receive the death penalty.  Imagine the marketing approach for that event.

Consider this, will Saddam be alive to celebrate the upcoming New Year with a hang…I mean a bang?

Be kind rewind, until next time.

Miss USA and Miss Teen USA kissing in a tree

Thursday, December 21st, 2006

I want to comment on the recent behavior of a one Miss USA Tara Conner. I like to say her name with an accent. Kind of like when the Terminator says “Sara Conner?” Fortunately for the two people reading this post, you can’t hear my terrible impersonation of Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Anyway, if you didn’t know already Tara was almost dethroned due to her behavior and personal problems stemming from “partying too much” in New York City bars. The simple reason was underage drinking and kissing Miss Teen USA Katie Blair.

Seriously, I can agree with dethroning her for underage drinking but she has agreed to rehab in Berks County Pennsylvania. Simply put, underage drinking is against the law. However, kissing Miss Teen USA is not a bad thing. Maybe she was showing her peer some love and support for all her hard work. Maybe, they have a thing going. Maybe they are long lost sisters and just found out at the bar by a birthmark they each have on their left butt cheek. Or maybe, Miss USA needed chap stick and Miss Teen USA only had what was on her lips left so they shared the chap stick by kissing. My point is, how can showing affection for another person be disgraceful to the Miss USA crown or disgraceful in any arena?

You mean to tell me that Mr. Universe can’t kiss Mr. Olympia. Is that not acceptable in the world of Bodybuilding either? What!? It’s two dudes? It could be taken as two guys saying “good game” on the hiney. What is wrong with our world?

Why does two hot chicks kissing have to be seen as ill-mannered? Let’s focus on the real problem, I’m fat.

Will’s New Years Resolutions

Thursday, December 14th, 2006

I know it’s pre-emptive to be spouting my New Years Resolutions but I think it’s time. This is something I never take seriously but I always have something to share.  This year, it’s a whole new ball game.

I’m going back to my old ways of being more observant.  I’ve become so opinionated and that disgusts me.  I need to sit back, relax, and take it all in.  It’s part of growing. 

Speaking of growing, I’m growing in all the wrong areas.  I recently posted that I’m on a diet.  I do feel better about myself and the way I look.  Some may not notice that I’ve been dieting. The dieting is for me and not for those who may not notice.  It’s all about how I perceive myself.

I also want to become a bit more physically fit.  A very wise person once said:

We spend most of our life sacrificing our health for money then we spend the rest of our life sacrificing our money for health.

This is pretty profound statement.  I’m going to make the time to become more physically fit.  I’m focused. The human life expectancy has increased by modern medicine. It has brought an age where people will in fact live longer but their quality of life frankly is terrible.  What good is holding on that last gasp of life by some machine or some medication?  Most of the time those folks can’t crap and tell you about it. 

Ultimately, I have a lot on my plate for the New Year but I’m ready.

Happy Birthday Joel

Wednesday, December 13th, 2006

    
Edguardo bought Joel a birthday cake this past Saturday for a party.  He even added “Hap Jo” onto the already wonderfully decorated cake to express his birthday wishes to Joel. Edguardo, don’t quit your day job.  You would not make it in the highly competitive cake writing field.

Going to Bed Angry

Friday, December 8th, 2006

So, you and your significant other have a rough argument. Maybe words are exchanged or insults are slung back and forth. The quarrel could be something as simple as a disagreement over who didn’t empty the dishwasher. The tiff could have originated after a ridiculous comment over who’s turn it is to walk the dog. Regardless of the cause, it is extremely important to talk with that special person you share your bed with and work out the tension before you go to sleep that night. If you choose to go to bed without fixing the cause, there may be a chance you end with this effect:

Police: Sleeping Man’s Genitals Set On Fire By Girlfriend

A woman in Fulton County, GA., who was angry with her boyfriend when the pair went to bed over the weekend, poured gasoline on his genitals and ignited a fire, according to police. Fulton County police said Bobby Thompson and his girlfriend Cynthia Covington had a fight Saturday morning and Thompson went to bed. However, Covington was still upset, the report said. Covington then allegedly poured gasoline between Thompson’s legs and ignited a fire. Covington also caught fire, the report said. Both were transported to Grady Hospital’s burn unit. Covington was in critical condition Sunday night while Thompson was listed in stable condition. Covington faces aggravated assault and arson charges.

She was so upset that she had no other choice but to burn the man’s genitals? What kind of decision making was going on through this woman’s mind? At what point in the evening did this woman decide that the only answer to her rage would be to set fire to this man’s junk? You see people, the moral to this story is pretty apparent. When you go to bed at night with the one you care about, make sure you talk through your differences. Instead of staying angry, chat a bit, work things out, make a little “shibanga bang.” It’s much easier to wake up in your mate’s arms than finding yourself in a hospital bed suffering from third degree burns only to be shipped off to prison for 10-15 years.

I don’t like dieting

Wednesday, December 6th, 2006

 Many moons ago, I was in the best shape of my life.  Now, my body has proved the test of time as my protective shell becomes larger and larger like a turtle.  My protective shell is, of course, my gut.  If anyone ever asks about your gut just say it’s your protective shell.

Anyway. I’ve been dieting and it seems to be working so far but I hate the limitations.  I like eating a bowl of cereal before bed or eat a bag of salty chips.  I know losing some weight will make me feel better both physically and mentally but I hate the fact that can’t go out for lunch and get chili dogs.

Instead, I’m eating healthier and counting calories.  I’ve been good about it except when I had to eat Dijon Chicken and green beans for lunch.  There is something about mustard on chicken that is cooked.  It was not good at all.  I couldn’t eat it and I’ve eaten a dog breath freshener.

My goal is too lose twenty pounds before March.  I’m going to stay strong and update you with my progress.
