Random Notes on the Day Before Turkey Day
A quick apology to my two or three readers, my posts have been a bit sporadic lately. Mostly, I'm trying to avoid bitching about stuff online, so I haven't had much to write about. Things will pick back up in December. Unless our computer crashes like it did last year...
The XBox 360 came out yesterday. A lotta people got all excited, but my responce to this whole thing is "Um, so?" Back in my day, a new video game system was a humongous evolutionary leap from its predecessor. The difference between the Nintendo and the Super Nintendo was staggering. Now, it's like "Buy our new game system, it's a little bit better than the old one!" Bah, I say.
Also, it's worth mentioning that, if my usual pattern holds true, it'll be about three years after the release that I'll be able to get an XBox 360 or a Playstation 3, so that may just be bitterness talking. Can't wait till 2009/10...
Welp, as usual, the only show on TV that I can get that's worth watching gets canceled. From what I can tell, Arrested Development, the funniest show since Sienfeld, has been cancelled. Now, with the exception of most of Fox Sunday Night and House, Fox is officially a TV wasteland.
On the bright side, King of the Hill finally returned on Sunday. To quote Hank Hill, "If the Class of 2000 really did rule, they wouldn't need to spray paint it on the side of a rock".
Hopefully, this is my last day of work for the week. There's still no reports from my Dad/Employer as to whether we're working Friday, but I'm hoping we won't. Just 8 hours of Freezing Manual Labor in a Harsh Landscape and I'm free. I think Boolah and Fitch should be wrapping up their work week as I am typing this. Dunno when Shafe gets freed from Cubicle Hell.
So, as I've mentioned before, I don't drink alcohol for my own bizarre reasons. My friends, on the other hand, like to occassionally indulge in a fermented drink or two. The other day, we were discussing shots, and what I would do if we were all trying to drink shots at the same time. So, we (mostly Boolah) invented my personal shot drink, the SPLATTERED BRAINS. To make a Splattered Brains, take one part Orange Juice, one part Cranberry Juice, one part Mt. Dew, and several drops of Tabasco Sauce, and mix em up. Drink. Think to yourself, "What the hell was I thinking?" The impact of this drink relies heavily on how much Tabasco you put in it, so if you really wanna knock yourself on your ass, dump in plenty of the hot stuff.
