Have you learned lessons only of those who admired you, and were tender with you, and stood aside for you?

Have you not learned great lessons from those who braced themselves against you, and disputed the passage with you?

Opportunity Knocks

Meg and I went bowling last night for an Mpact event. It was fun and I have to say we kicked some ass. There were some cute guys there but they all brought dates! I did get a couple of compliments on my form though ;) Of course, I stuck out like sore thumb cause I wasn't drinking a Bud Light. Speaking of Bud light, you know what's really funny? Their new ad campaign. "All light beers are low in carbs... choose on taste."

Are they kidding? Bud light tastes like watered down urine. No offense to all my beer drinking brothers and sisters out there, but come on! Talk about propaganda!

Anyway, Meg bailed on me early and so I went to the Blue Monkey and talked life with Harry. We talked about relationships and motorcycles and being honest and what we think is important. It was a good conversation. We decided that we really need to go to the Stax Museum. There's a bunch of stuff that I have never done in Memphis that I need to do. I need to get to know the city better.

For Liberals Only

When the Supreme Court appointed George W. Bush president, five biased justices overruled the people of the United States and trampled on our principles of democracy. Now, an illegitimate president runs rampant, turning this country upside down.

Crunk

So, in case you are keeping score, I still haven't found my remote, which means I pretty much have only watched VH1 for the past month or so. I go to sleep with my television on and wake up to actual videos every morning. Of course, it's the same 10 videos everyday, but it is actually very educational. The one that has taught me the most is Usher's Yeah Video. The video has taught me all about Crunk. See, as I understand it Lil' Jon is the king of Crunk and he produced Ushers new joint. Crunk is a very important term in hip-hop culture and I like to be down with the homies. You have to be down with mofo's like Ludacris, who raps on the song, cause they are always philosophizin' with thought provoking ideas like "We want a lady on the street and a freak in the bed."

I agree! Peace up, M-Town...Take that and rewind it back.

Bush Haiku

This is a short poem made up entirely of actual quotations from George W. Bush. These have been arranged, only for aesthetic purposes, by Washington Post writer, Richard Thompson.

MAKE THE PIE HIGHER

I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.
It's a world of madmen and uncertainty
And potential mental losses.

Rarely is the question asked
Is our children learning?
Will the highways of the Internet
Become more few?

How many hands have I shaked?
They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.

I know that the human being
And the fish can coexist.
Families is where our nation finds hope,
Where our wings take dream.

Put food on your family!
Knock down the tollbooth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher!
Make the pie higher!

Heaven on a plate

Can I just take a moment to commend Ihop and their new fabulous concoction Stuffed French Toast. They might as well call it heaven on a plate! It's like having breakfast and dessert!

Warm cinnamon-raisin French toast stuffed with sweetened cream cheese and crowned with whipped topping, powdered sugar and your favorite fruit. Available ala carte or as part of a complete breakfast Stuffed French Toast is sure to satisfy.

Go quickly children, this lovely dish is only on the menu until April 25th. May I suggest a night of debachery as an appetizer, it makes the taste so much sweeter.

Body Art

So, for those who haven't seen it yet, and I know there are very few...here's the tattoo on my back. So many people regret tatoos, but all of mine mean something very personal and I don't regret any of them. I know my mother is still holding her breath for me to say that I wish I didn't have them, but it's been 10 years and I am still not sorry.

It's funny because people are always surprised that I have any tattoos at all. Never judge a book by it's cover.
Oh, and here's your cleavage shot. You're Welcome. It's an arrow through my heart, not pointing to my breasts. Bo Bradley said he thought it was there to say, "Hey! Mr Bartender!" Alas, although a brilliant idea, that was not it's intent.

Anyway, don't ever say I didn't do anything for you. Happy Birthday, Mr President...

More News on Lollapalooza

YEAH! The '90's rule, dude!

The confirmed line-up is a straight up wet dream from my senior year in high school, but to tell you the truth, unless you add The Cure and some NIN, I'll be staying home.

When all else fails, blame prince

Here's a funny artcle about why people, or should I say, mostly kids shorthand while on the internet. I have to admit, it does get on my nerves, just a little. I can't stand it when someone IM's me and they write stuff like "LOL" or "ROTFLMAO" - not because I don't like abbreviated communication, but because I just don't believe them. It's like a golf clap, and it's a LIE.

Ok, maybe not, maybe they are ROLLING ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING (THEIR) ASS OFF - but they sure do get back to the keyboard to type their next message quickly.

Cool State of the Week

Quote of the Day

All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence; then success is sure.
Mark Twain (1835 - 1910), Letter to Mrs Foote, Dec. 2, 1887

I'm As Cold As Ice

So, here's a funny little story for you. A couple of weeks ago I was at Ed's birthday party and he introduced me to a man. The guy seemed perfectly nice and we chatted for a bit. As all conversations do, we came to the point where we asked each other what we did for a living. I have heard from Europeans that this is a very American thing to do. It is not polite in say, France, to ask someone what there profession is, it's tacky. But not here. I can't imagine meeting someone and not asking what they do for a living. In other countries, maybe one's job is a total separate entity when it comes to developing a sense of who one is, but here, I pretty much think that you are what you do.

Anyway, this particular man asked me what I did and I told him and then I asked him what he did. He told me that he worked for Memorial Funeral Home, to which I joked, "Oh, so you play with dead people all day?" To which, of course, he relpied, "Yep."

Now, I guess that's a perfectly respectable job. Someone has to do it, right? Either way, it was a total turn off. Maybe I'm being judgemental - fine. Anyway, I excused myself to get another drink and didn't bother going back.

So, Friday night I got together with Patrik for dinner and ended up going to a block party at the Royal Arms where I got to finally meet Dane and some other friends of Patrik's. It seemed like a really fun group. So I'm chatting with this guy I met and we come to the part of the conversation where it just seems natural to say, "So, what do you do?"

The guy, also named Patrick, says, "Oh, you don't want to know."

To which I replied, 'Don't tell me...you're an embalmer."

Of course, he says, "yeah, how did you know?"

"Are you kidding me? If you didn't enjoy playing with dead people you wouldn't be talking to me."

And now you know why I can't find a date...

Well, Well, Well

So, my new design is unveiled...Yay! Much love goes to Patrik for helping me with the redesign. Please let me know what ya think. I still have a little bit of tweaking to do, but I really love it!

Bye Bye Blogger! Hello Moveable Type! I'm legit!

You Wanted More SEX

Straight out of London, a new sex craze called toothing. Is this the fruits of technology? Random sex with strangers? I thought we were supposed to get all the cool stuff first?

And don't forget to take the Dirty Sex Puns Quiz!

Just Do It

Well, as long as we are using religion as a basis for a constitutional amendment that will specifically ban gay marriage, let's not be half ass, let's go all the way...

A. Marriage (in the United States) shall consist of a union between
one man and one or more women. (Gen 29:17-28; II Sam 3:2-5)

B. Marriage shall not impede a man's right to take concubines in
addition to his wife or wives. (II Sam 5:13; I Kings 11:3; II Chron
11:21)

C. A marriage shall be considered valid only if the wife is a
virgin. If the wife is not a virgin, she shall be executed. (Deut
22:13-21)

D. Marriage of a believer and a non-believer shall be
forbidden. (Gen 24:3; Num 25:1-9; Ezra 9:12; Neh 10:30)

E. Since marriage is for life, neither this Constitution nor the
constitution of any State, nor any state or federal law, shall be
construed to permit divorce. (Deut 22:19; Mark 10:9)

F. If a married man dies without children, his brother shall marry
the widow. If he refuses to marry his brother's widow or
deliberately does not give her children, he shall pay a fine of one
shoe and be otherwise punished in a manner to be determined by law.
(Gen. 38:6-10; Deut 25:5-10)

G. In lieu of marriage, if there are no acceptable men in your
town, it is required that you get your dad drunk and have sex with
him (even if he had previously offered you up as a sex toy to men
young and old), tag-teaming with any sisters you may have. Of
course, this rule applies only if you are female. (Gen 19:31-36)

Things I Learned Friday Night

So Friday night Daniel, Jeremy, Donna D. and I headed downtown to Earnestine & Hazel's for Nora's birthday. It was fun. Daniel and I had been bar hopping since 7 and had already been to Huey's to meet Laurie and Amber and then we ran into Kristen Eve and Patrick at The Bayou. So by the time we made it downtown to Nora's party we were quite ripe. For some reason I decided that this would be the appropriate time to learn how to do the "hustle." I saw myself in my mind getting on the dance floor and tearing it up, however, things did not quite work out the way I envisioned it. Funny how that happens sometimes...

Anyway, I made a bit of a fool of myself, and Daniel has the pictures to prove it. So, it was fun to finally get to meet Nora. Jeremy talks about her all of the time and I know that she reads my blog sometimes. She reminded me a lot of Margaret Cho. When I told Daniel that he said that that sounded racist to him. "What, cause she's Asian and a chick she automatically has to remind you of Margaret Cho?" It's not like I said, "I bet she's hardworking and quiet" or "I have a hunch she excels at math and science." I love Maraget Cho, so maybe what I should have said is, "I like Nora, I hope she acts like Margaret Cho. I wish all Asian American girls
acted like Margaret Cho. The world would be a much better place!" She is actually much prettier than Margaret Cho. Now, she's probably going to read this and say, "Damnit! Why does every American wide-eye have to compare me to fucking Margaret Cho! Freaking gaijin!"
After we left Nora's party Daniel, Jeremy and I went to Side Street and had a shot party. Here's a hint for all of you aspiring lushes out there. Never tell a bartender that his drinks are weak. He or she will proceed to make you pay dearly by making your next round so strong that they are almost undrinkable. Is that a word? Un-drinkable?

So here's what I learned Friday Night:

Laurie is not comfortable talking about sex toys
Don't try to trade insults with Ed, you will lose everytime
Kristen Eve does not work for MIFA
Daniel can fit quite a few people in his apartment
I can not do "The Hustle"
My life is turning into a V. C. Andrews novel
You never know who might slip you the tongue at the end of the night
The saying "Who pissed in her cheerios?" has now been replaced with "Who pissed on her mudflaps?"

Too. Much. Crazy.

So. I made it out for St Paddy's Day afterall. I went to Sidestreet with a few people and had a few drinks. It was quite funny the next day the number of people who suddenly were too sick to come to work. If you're gonna party like a big dawg, you gotta be able to take the pain the next day...come on people!

BTW, there are two stories out this week that have me going, "WTF?"

The first is that in Rhea County, an area in East Tennessee, there was a vote taken this week to ban homosexuals from living witin the county. The commissioners unanimously passed a motion on Monday asking it's state representatives to introduce legislation that would allow the county to charge homosexuals with crimes against nature. Uh, what?

There was such an uproar that a special meeting had to be scheduled last night for a revote. With three hundred protestors at the meeting, the commissioners came in and revoted. They overturned their previous vote in a meeting that took three minutes and then they vamoosed.

The second story is that the Mississippi Supreme Court yesterday upheld a state law that bans the sale of sex toys. The justices also said the advertising of the sexual devices is not protected by the right to free speech. Presiding Justice Bill Waller Junior, writing yesterday for the Supreme Court, says there is no fundamental right of access to buy sexual devices. Another example of crochety old men trying to tell people what they can and can't do with their body. GEEZUS!

Rules for Being a Liberal

You want anyone making over $ 75,000 to turn over 50% of their income to the government for redistribution to those making less than $75,000.

Fetuses are fair game for "termination" but stray dogs and those convicted of first degree murder should be provided a comfortable, government funded life.

The poor should receive additional "tax cuts" that increase the amount of money they receive from the Earned Income Tax Credit.

You believe that a gay marriage ban is good under Clinton, but evil under Bush.

You believe that bombing aspirin factories and criminal trials deter terrorism.

You believe healthcare is a right and the ability to sue those awful, healthcare providing doctors out of business using a upstanding trial attorney is also a right.

You believe companies should continue to pay more to Americans for work that can be done cheaper overseas but you should also pay for job training for illegal immigrants who only take the jobs Americans won't do because they can get free money from the government.

You believe that the government should subsidize the price of gas for the poor, tax it more for the rich and deny access to oil reserves to save tundra.

Because I'm an equal opportunity hater...

Rap is Whack!

So by now any self respecting hipster has heard about The Gray Album which is the morphing of Jay-Z's The Black Album and the Beatle's The White Album, mixed by DJ Danger Mouse.

The Grey Album is an art project/experiment that uses the full vocal
content of Jay-Z's Black Album recorded over new beats and production
made using the Beatles White Album as the sole source material.
Danger Mouse insists he can explain and prove that all the music
on the Grey Album can be traced back to the White Album and its
musical content via sampling. Every kick, snare, and chord is taken
from the Beatles White Album and is in their original recording somwhere.

But, although I found that to be an interesting experiment, I am much more interested in The Dark Blue Album (AKA The Black and Blue Album) by Jay-Zeezer. This, of course is the cross pollenation of The Black Album and Weezer's classic debut The Blue Album. Now, if we can just find someone to put some flow on R.E.M.'s Green Album. Any Takers?

Kiss Me! I'm Irish!

So you know what sucks? The one night of the year I could go out and have a great time and not even think twice about looking like a drunk, I have to work late. I don't get off until 10:30 tonight and I have to be back tomorrow morning at 8! Shouldn't I get some kind of holiday for being Irish? I mean the jews get passover, the christians get christmas, vets get memorial day, the people who labor get labor day - I work in television, I get none of them. So, I think that I deserve one day a year to give thanks to what I value most, right? I guess I'll go write Ted Kennedy a letter. I bet he could make it happen. That guy gets away with murder!

Happy St Patrick's Day!

There was an Irishman, an Englishman and Claudia Schiffer sitting together in a carriage in a train going through Tasmania. Suddenly the train went through a tunnel and as it was an old style train, there were no lights in the carriages and it went completely dark. Then there was this kissing noise and the sound of a really loud slap. When the train came out of the tunnel, Claudia Schiffer and the Irishman were sitting as if nothing had happened and the Englishman had his hand against his face as he had been slapped there.
The Englishman was thinking: 'The Irish fella must have kissed Claudia Schiffer and she missed him and slapped me instead.'
Claudia Schiffer was thinking: 'The English fella must have tried to kiss me and actually kissed the Irishman and got slapped for it.'
And the Irishman was thinking: 'This is great. The next time the train goes through a tunnel I'll make another kissing noise and slap that English bastard again.

Rules For Being A Republican

Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you are millionaire conservative radio jock, which makes it an "illness" and needs our prayers for your "recovery".

You have to believe that those privileged from birth achieve success all on their own.

You have to believe that the US should get out of the UN, and that our highest national priority is enforcing UN resolutions against Iraq.

You have to believe that government should stay out of people's lives but it needs to punish anyone caught having private sex with the "wrong" gender.

You have to believe that pollution is ok, so long as it makes a profit.

You have to believe in prayer in schools, as long as you don't pray to Allah or Buddha.

"Standing Tall for America" means firing your workers and moving their jobs to India.

You have to believe that a woman cannot be trusted with decisions about her own body, but that large multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind with no regulation whatsoever.

You have to believe that you love Jesus and Jesus loves you, and that Jesus shares your hatred of AIDS victims, homosexuals, and Hillary Clinton.

You hate the ACLU for representing convicted felons, but they owed it to the country to bail out Oliver North.

You have to believe that the best way to encourage military morale is to praise the troops overseas whilecutting their VA benefits.

You believe that group sex and drug use are degenerate sins that can only be purged by running for governor of California as a Republican.

You have to believe it is wise to keep condoms out of schools, because we all know if teenagers don't have condoms they won't have sex.

You have to believe that the best way to fight terrorism is to alienate our allies and then demand their cooperation and money.

You have to believe that government medicine is wrong and that HMO's and insurance companies only have your best interests at heart.

You have to believe that providing health care to all Iraqis is sound government policy but providing health care to all Americans is socialism personified.

You believe that tobacco's link to cancer and global warming are "junk science", but Creationism should be taught in schools.

You have to believe that waging war with no exit strategy was wrong in Vietnam but right in Iraq.

You have to believe that Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney was doing business with him, and a bad guy when Bush needed a "we can't find Bin Laden" diversion.

You believe that government should restrict itself to just the powers named in the Constitution, which includes banning gay marriages and censoring the internet.

You have to believe that the public has a right to know about the adulterous affairs of Democrats, while those of Republicans are a "private matter".

You have to believe that the public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades but that Bush was right to censor those 28 pages from the Congressional 9/11 report because you just can't handle the truth.

You support state rights, which means Ashcroft telling states what locally passed voter initiatives he will allow them to have.

You have to believe that what Clinton did in the 1960's is of vital national interest but what Bush did decades later is "stale news" and "irrelevant".

You have to believe that trade with Cuba is wrong because it is communist, but trading with China and Vietnam is just dandy.

Happy Birthdqy Marcus and Ed

A bunch of peeps went out Friday night to P.F. Chang's to celebrate Marcus' birthday. He's 29 now, one year away from being old. The food was really good and I think everyone had fun. Brad showed up with The Gymnast just as I was heading out to another engagement. He started buying shots for everyone, I'm looking forward to hearing how that night turned out. Too bad I had someone else to meet, it would have been fun going one on one with Brad after he had had a few drinks. Bring it!

Last night Jeremy, Patrik and I met at the Glass Onion for dinner before picking up Anna Marie and heading to Ed's for his birthday party. I had no idea it was his birthday, I just thought he was having people over for the hell of it. I came empty handed and had a Larry David moment. Ed's house is beyond beautiful. I spent most of the night in Kevin's bed. OK, ok, I was just on Kevin's bed, but I'm trying to add some sex here. I was lying there while Patrik told me naughty secrets about his past love affairs. People kept opening the door and looking in and then seeing us and shutting it like they were catching us making out or something. We went outside to smoke and Patrik wandered off into the night to go to some guy's house that lived down the street. I sat on the front porch playing, "Who here is straight?"

The Government Gets One Right

I am no huge supporter of the legalization of drugs. In my experience, most poeple can't handle drugs. And when I say drugs, I mean the recreational ones. Folks just don't know when to say when. However, I am a huge supporter of the testing of drugs.

Eternal Sunshine

My friend Dave called me tonight from NYC. He saw a preview of the new Jim Carrey film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. He called me as soon as he left the film to tell me that he knew I was gonna love it and it made him think of me the entire time he was watching the film. Hmmmmmmmmm, what the hell does that mean? I guess it's kind of cool when something reminds someone of you. It at least means they have contemplated you a bit.

Anyway, the script for the film was written by Charlie Kaufman, the guy who wrote Adaptation and Being John Malkovich, two movies I love. So, it could be that this is one I am really gonna like, but I hate to even think about a film before I go into the theater and sit down and watch it. i want to know as little about it as possible because I hate the build up and then the let down. Anyway, it comes out on the 19th, so I'll probably go see it opening night. Until then, please don't mention it to me.

The Terrorist Attacks and Apathy

I called six travel agencies today to see if anyone was canceling their trips to Spain because of the terrorist attack. Not one place I called had had a cancellation. Actually, I guess Madrid is probably the safest place in the world for a while. I had a moment this morning when I read about what had happened when all the memories of watching people jump to their death from the WTC came flooding back. I remembered feeling the heat on my face from the flames as I leaned out my window to get a better look at the damage. I remembered seeing these images falling from the windows and wondering what they were. I squinted my eyes and realized it was people, often two holding hands, I remember what it sounded like when they hit the ground. I have avoided watching tv all day because I don't want to see the aftermath in Spain, the people running and screaming and holding dying people in their arms. It's just awful. I have no revelations.

For Kids of all ages

Does anyone else remember a couple of years ago when news spread that a muppet with AIDS was being created for Sesame Street in South Africa? It seems the disease is so rampant there the producer's on the show wanted to create a character dealing with the disease so that kids would learn about what it was and it would hamper discrimination. At the time, I thought it was kind of a weird idea, but hey, whatever. Today I came across this and it put it all in perspective. I'm still not saying that it was a bad idea, what the hell do I know?

Too Tired To Blog

I had a fantastic weekend. I saw Henry Rollins who was too hyterical for words, Dana Carvey who basically did his HBO special and topped it off today by going to Owen Brennan's for a fabulous brunch. I laughed my ass off for two hours, then I went with friends to get manicures and pedicures, then we went shopping, then I went home and napped, then Jeremy and I went to Daniel's for The Soprano's and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Other than one small little mishap, we had a great time. Now I am tired and must go to bed, but I will do a real update tomorrow...I promise!

You can make a difference

There are more than 1,000 federal protections and responsibilities denied to gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender families because they cannot legally marry in this country. Here are just a few:

*ability to make decisions on a partner's behalf in a medical emergency.
*petition for partner to immigrate.
*up to 12 weeks leave from work to care for a seriously ill partner or parent of a partner.
*parenting responsibilities of children brought into a family through birth, adoption, surrogacy or other means.
*ability to purchase continued health coverage for a domestic partner after the loss of a job.

All American families deserve the same protections.

No Doubt!

You're Catch-22!
by Joseph Heller
Incredibly witty and funny, you have a taste for irony in all that you see.
