Under a week until my neighborhood looks like this...again.

Cause we gonna wreck shit.

I hope this place holder will do.

While I search for bigger and better, please enjoy this shot of Ben Ryan burying one of five unanswered goals behind Michigan's tender.

Michigan still sucks.  Hail to those....

You remember the tune.

It's that time of year again...

Time to plan for the Blue-Gold extravaganza!


Now I don't know if any of you were even considering it this year, but I'm throwing a new wrinkle into the festivities... shopping for the official clubhouse of the Unlimited Juice Party.

That's right folks. I found out today that I have the opportunity to make a two year victory lap back at Bond Hall, and my living arrangements will double as your part time residence whenever you wish. So who's up for:

Drinking some beer
Watching some football
Looking at some houses
Being Awesome

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

new picture!

lets put up a new picture. i say we have a vote as to what we put up.

everyone suggest something and then well vote.

my suggestion is something involving a foreigner(s) making a funny face(s).

this should be fun!

Seen Phil Lately?

Now you have.

The Wonders of Wikipedia

If you're bored right now, I have four letters that can help fix that: xkcd. I'm not sure any of you have heard of this site before, but I got lost on Wikipedia for a few hours a couple weeks ago and stumbled across it. It's a webcomic apparently written by an ex-NASA worker. So essentially super genius gets bored, scribbles in notebooks, posts said scribbles, creates following, proceeds to scribble for a living. I'm in the wrong business.

Some of the jokes are above my head since I'm not too great at theoretical math and computer programming languages, but a good number of the comics are funny regardless of intelligence level. Considering the way I found out about the site, I thought this particular strip was really good.


Enjoy the website and kiss that boredom goodbye!

Congratulations Brian

Brian,
A hearty congratulations to you and Jenn-en-en-en on your engagement. To show off your love to the world, I'd say forget about the ring and pick up one of these:

This way everyone will know how much you like eachother. Just be careful about doors and stuff, you may have to take them on sideways....

Here's the link to the website that makes this sweatshirt: http://www.pantalaine.com/index.html

Check out the offerings. For my money it's all about the "All-for-one Lefty" shirt, or the "Couch Dress". An added perk, the place is located in South Bend! Could it get any better? Nope.

Seriously though, congrats Brian. Hearts are breaking wide open all over the country tonight because one of the Jonas Brothers is off the market.

A one scene play...

...based on recent, true events.


CURTAIN OPENS

Four twenty-somethings are standing outside a nondescript pizza restaurant in the Florida panhandle. They are generally at ease, and currently chuckling about how one of them heard a passer by proclaim "This restaurant has the best ice on 30-a".

Enter CRAZY GUY

CRAZY GUY exits restaurant, points at BRAD. BRAD is leaning nonchalantly against a column with his arms crossed, still laughing at the dumb thing the girl said. He looks at man with a confused expression, wondering if this man is someone he should know.

CRAZY GUY points again. BRAD changes expression as if to say "Oh shit, something bad is about to happen"

CRAZY GUY (still pointing) to anyone who will listen: "Look how mad this guy is!"

BRAD (hesitant): "Me?"

CRAZY GUY: "This guy is just mad all the time. I know this type of guy!"

BRAD: "Dude, I'm not mad, what are you talking about?"

CRAZY GUY: "You're totally mad"

BRAD: "I'm leaning against this column, I don't real..."

CRAZY GUY (interrupting): "You're about to snap and kill somebody aren't you?"

BRAD (hesitates, then sarcastically): "Yeah I've been known to do that. This one time some lunatic came up and started accusing me of all kinds of shit and I just stabbed him right there. It was wild"

CRAZY GUY (not taking the hint): "I knew it... I know you're type, just sitting there all James Bond like... waiting for the opportune moment to assassinate somebody."

BRAD is dumbfounded. Other members of the crowd giggle. BRAD straightens up and takes his hands out of his pockets in case CRAZY GUY decides to make a move. CRAZY GUY interprets this as confirmation that BRAD is indeed an undercover member of an intelligence agency.

CRAZY GUY: "I bet you're in MI-6 or something, yeah... you are"

BRAD: "Yup, we keep a pretty strong presence here in Seaside... you know... ever since that whole bay of pigs thing. Cuba is definitely still up to someth..."

CRAZY GUY (interrupting): "Oh you totally blew it! You're not supposed to talk about being a spy!"

BRAD: "Actually, the CIA has a much more progressive stance on cover identities now... especially when you're playing the spy card to get laid. They're totally cool with that... David Webb does it all the time."

CRAZY GUY (ironically not picking up on the Jason Bourne reference): "You just compromised another agent too... they're totally going to put a hit squad out on you! Just like Jason Bourne."

CRAZY GUY (to passer-by): "Hey watch this guy... hes a damned spy"

CRAZY GUY points to his eyes and after a moment whispers: "Watch him!"

CRAZY GUY begins to back away, staring at BRAD, and whispers again: "Watch him!"

CRAZY GUY then turns to leave as BRAD watches.

Exit CRAZY GUY

BRAD turns to his companions: "Holy... Fucking... Shit. What just happened?"
