Side note: this blog has improved the quality of my life considerably.
Side note 2: going to a bachelor party in Tampa this afternoon and we have 10 moustached men playing a TPC course tomorrow morning. Hat tip to Faust for the bachelor party moustache phenomenon.

Wale, a big Seinfeld fan, mixes classic lines from the show that flow well with his lyrics. He also has a newer album based on Back to the Future. If nothing else, the guy is doing something different, and his music is inspired.

Did anyone else truly enjoy watching "King" Lames shoot 3/14 in a 32-point Game 5 loss at home? Me too.
I think "King" Lames is the most over-hyped athlete in sports. He wasn't even close to hitting his shots Tuesday. They were off-the-side-of-the-rim bricks. It was ugly. Lubahn-esque, if I dare. And I do.
I don't know what commercials look like these days in the Untied (intentional) States, but I assume LeBrenda is everyone: Vitamin water, Powerbars, Tonka Trucks, Noxema. Why? In his career, he has had one important game in the playoffs, when he scored like 27 points in a row against the Pistons in the Eastern Conference Finals 2007. He was then swept in the finals.
That's a pretty weak resume for a King.
Oh, and as for his 32-point drubbing at home on Tuesday, I indeed was "A Witness".

"Of San Antonio, Texas," Castro said evenly.
Obama grinned. "I'm messing with you," he said. "I know who you are."
(The rest of the article goes on the french kiss your new mayor's culo. It's a little too complimentary if you ask me, but, seems like SA's got a pretty solid hombre in the mayor's office)
Yeah for Politics!

- Bear- Beating me in tennis, building something at his house he is being really mysterious about.
- Weiss- Getting his email hacked and sending me quasi aggressive text messages.
- Chambers- Has a baby and a stressful job. Wants to hang out but I have been a flake.
- Mazur- Left his good job for a better job. Good job is still paying him. Having a girl.
- Williams- In excellent relationship with native girl. Wrote a book. Still poor.
- Lubahn- Moved to Apple Valley, Minnesota. Jack is overjoyed about having a basement.
- Miller- Working hard at TCU. Watches a lot of internet videos. Has a sweet beard.
- Portillo- I will be seeing him this summer. Thank God b/c I have no idea what he's been up to.
- Brown- In Austin. I think.
I am doing well. Working a good amount. I like my big black dog. Piper and I ride bikes to bars and ride back drunk. That's pretty fun.
I look forward to seeing all of you again.

This is crazy, how is it that a manager of a professional sports team can simply apologize for cocaine use, COCAINE use. Tiger cheats with 38 women, Charlie Sheen puts a knife to his wife's throat, but they apologized and will get counseling and it will all be better.....
We may need to press the reset button soon and start the human race over.

For those that don't know my house has been for sale for a little over a month and we will be moving back to the Land of 10,000 lakes. As of today we have a closing date of 4/15 with a departure date of 4/18.
Both Melissa and I would like to see everyone before we depart if at all possible. She is planning a gathering the night of 3/27, but I wanted to get some discussion going within the IC to see if we could get together.
Thoughts?

adub-- are these guys from your chigacocacarican improv group? i love the 3rd world, or is it 3rd ward? either way, do what the president does and hope.
FACTS: don't worry i am jaques clouseau.
culprit: tom. possible alias.
last observed: leaving city-transit after taking part in municipal assault of native negro americanoid.
possible/known aliases and-or call-sign: slicknamtom.
that's really all i can think of this fellow, as far as partially witty nicknames go. his beard is way cooler than mine.
he's likely a jarhead, or stinted san quentin (go where you want with those)--the recently shut down bay area joint.
mind you this all occurred in oakland.
i'd love to hear comments about tom's little episode at the end, about mama.
there will likely be a rematch for money, televised. and then orgies and cocaine for nam-tom.
tom-tom to endorse amid overnight stardom--in other news.
tangent to this nonsense: if you can pull off bitch-slapping someone today, and, i mean, they really gotta deserve it, try not to think twice. it is thursday after all. but seriously, it can't just be any arbitrary beating of the chest and monkey peacockery. and she better be able to take a smackin' to too.
toodles... kisses,
marcus aurelius
p.s. my life life is cooler than y'alls... neener neener neener. don't worry, bad karma will strike any moment now.

I sent forwarded this out from my iphone to a handful of IC members last night, but I think it deserves blog. This just happened 2 days ago. Notice the 67 year old's shirt.
Here's the article regarding the fight: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2010/02/17/national/main6217265.shtml

they come back from their 6 day trip tomorrow night, and so far the house is still intact dogs and all. but, dont think i couldnt figure out a way to screw something up.
dfw was hammered for 20 hours yesterday with snow, and most tree branches have taken quite a pounding. a foreign exchange student(read immigrant day laborer) showed up earlier and offered to remove all fallen branches in exchange for pesos or tamales. i politely refused his services, thinking to myself i'll just move the branches.
this incoherent conversation-his english, my spanish- turned interesting when sam, the lab, decided to dart down the street. dead sprint. adios.
my twisted gray matter's first thought is "fuck, if this dog is dead, im gonna have to give mazur back that 100 bucks."
it's a dog, he'll find his way back, right?
yes, all's well. 45 minutes later, a neighborhood missing dog advocate, and collar reader, managed to corral the curious canine.
funny sidenote-- neighbor says sam immediately started humping his dogs.
mazurs are gone for 24 more hours, what could possibly go wrong?

I'd like to think I have the dignity not to mock something for a physical defect, but I think I have reason here. Last weekend as I walked to my hotel room, a cleft lipped monkey crawled on an overhanging branch and hissed and sort of screamed at me, my roommate and the hotel guide. We all started running.
Five minutes later, he appeared again at the end of the following video.

B) I volunteered at the MLK museum (where he was murdered) in Memphis for about 6 months. It was pretty cool and made you pretty disappointed to be white. Truth. It was tough. His Dream speech is the most well known, but I always thought Mountaintop was the most powerful.
Food for thought:
"What has violence ever accomplished? What has it ever created? No martyr's cause has ever been stifled by an assassin's bullet. No wrongs have ever been righted by riots and civil disorders. A sniper is only a coward, not a hero, and an uncontrolled or uncontrollable mob is only the voice of madness - not the voice of the people."
- RFK, after MLK was slain
I don't necessarily agree with it, but thought it was Blog worthy.
Also, if you worked on MLK and got off work for President's Day, I think something's wrong with that. If you worked both, man, bummer. If you worked neither, your name is probably Kevin Raldymple.

After arriving at the Dalrymples on Tuesday night- in a scene straight out of Perfect Strangers- Kevin Dalrymple and Brian Weiss were in the backyard with a metal detector trying to find Kevin's wedding ring. He lost said ring while tossing the football with Brian the night before. Brian, who has great experience at losing important things, found the ring minutes after we arrived.
In other news, Two members of the IC are moving out of Texas. Can you name them?

This is a challenging vote. Feel free to alter your passion to what better represents you but kids and wives are not allowed. Too obvious.

What if a 12th grade education was all you mustered?
Where would you be?
Pick somebody and tell their story. It can be a sentence (Chambers) or a sonnet (Williams)... I guess I will pick Lubahn because of the above picture.
Never leaves Minnesota. But still managed to snake his educated Darling back to Minnesota and marry up. He leaves Winona for the bright lights of LaCrosse, Wisconsin. There his wife supports his hopes of becoming a minor league hockey player as he battles in the semi-pro adult circuit.
Sadly, his youngest of 9 children chokes on a tater tot, and though Brent was successful in reviving the youngster, his jean shorts (he never met me so his wardrobe never evolved) got caught fire on the space heater. His legs were burned and his hockey career was over. He moves back to Winona. Alex, his youngest brother, got him a job driving the Zamboni before the 3rd period of the Winona Pirates' Pee-Wee hockey games.
In the words of Richard Mazur,"get your education."
