Lastings we hardly knew ye.(or how I learned to love the worst trade of the year)

WTF? The Mets have traded Lasting Milledge. What are these guys going to do now? BMF is not pleased and at first glance I tend to agree. They had to get pitching for someone of 'Stings value. The Mets seem to be having a front office meltdown of epic proportions.

Old Man Favre Is gonna need some vicodin!

The Cowboys are going to crush the Packers. Write it down. Have a good night.

Nablopomo goes up in smoke

Thanksgiving is my favorite day of the year, and I was distracted, so there has been no blogging. Also this game has taken over my life. Nothing of any interest ever happens to me, but other people they have stuff happen so go read their blogs, just kidding I will be back blogging normally(abnormally?)

Happy Thanksgiving (free association)

Go Cowboys. Turkey. PBR. stuffing vs. dressing--The Great Debate, I'm hungry. Thats All.



Update: Speaking of Wild Turkey, here is what sounds like a great dressing recipe.

The Dark Side continues its dominance

The N.E. Patriots are 23 1/2 point favorites against Philly. This threatens my Patriots cover the spread for 16 games bet. But I think they'll win by at least 30.

I'm a Fuckin Genius...the intertubes say so!

UPDATE: I just checked a very random sampling of blogs. Only 31 and KJ were also rated as genius (geniui?) I find this strange and slightly disturbing. Should I doubt this websites authenticity or just accept what is simply obvious. I choose to accept the wisdom of the 'tubes.

Go Cowboys! The Eagles were grounded the Giants fell and the Maryland Savages are next!

I know my blogs have all been videos and lack the usual level of insight and pithyness. Big things going on. Ya'll be the first to know.

The Playmaker-Remember the Name

Let us all take a moment to remember the greatest Wide Receiver Ever!

Let the World respect America again.


Update: In case that didn't convince you. Here is Obama at The Jefferson/Jackson Dinner.



Good Stuff.

Is this your first fuckin day on the job?

Funny.

T.O. supermans Giants

This isn't from yesterday but after a touchdown Owens and Sam Hurd did the Soulja Boy and supermaned dat ho. As predicted by HCIC, this dance will surely sweep the NFL.

I'm Bad and I'm Worldwide*

I recently added sitemeter to my page(I know, I'm a noob). Now I can stalk my readers, and thanks to google there are actually more than three people who read(ok, look at anyway) my blog and I have had some visits as far away as Argentina, Spain, Indonesia, and of course Canadia. How fucking awesome is that? I welcome immigrants legal and otherwise.

Day four of interminable closing of 7eo. Things are not good folks. I went to a local watering hole last night that I used to frequent but no longer do because it scores extremly high on the Douchey scale.(Someone should actually come up with a douchey scale to rate bars, it could be like Wikipedia or something...Hmmmm) Lets call this place uh... Port o' Call, since thats its name. It basically sucked, except some crazy motherfucker bought the bar drinks, no shit. Being the WPE I took full advantage and ordered a double. But still mostly it sucked, which it shouldn't seeing as how its motto is "Because everywhere else just sucks." Even there motto is douchey, and why does a bar need a motto?

As long as I'm rambling on I went to this bar with someone who is moving. You might remember that my bff, BBA just moved recently and I am having some abandonment issues. In order to avoid this problem I am issuing a decree.( I know this is like four posts but its my world and my pony so fuck off.)

NEW RULE-- Directed by WPE.
fade in:
Chancelot on a balcony.

"Henceforth and always no one shall be allowed to move ever! That is, move from Salt Lake, feel free to return to SLC if you formerly resided here, but remember this decree will be effective immediately upon your return. Also, this only applies to people I know. The rest a yous can do whatever the fuck you want. Thank you and good night. I almost forgot, everyone gets a pony. Peace out, bitches!"

Chancelot retires from balcony to the cheering slobbering sound of a crowd madly passionate about ponies.


*What song and band am I paraphrasing? Homework is awesome.

Utah, not such a red state after all?

Bush approval ratings are finally below 50%. And to update my voucher post, Prop. 1 was destroyed in the voting booth.

This seems strange to me, in a state that has a U.N Free Zone, and overwhelmingly supports any law that bans same-sex marriage, somehow defeats a pet project of the right wing's continuing disenfranchisement of the poor campaigne.

Maybe it was because the the SLC mayoral race brought out Democrats and Republicans just couldn't get excited about anything not involving sex?

Oh noes, it was the stupid Utah voters who crazily question the powers of the free market to save us all.

Voucher supporter Overstock.com chief executive Patrick Byrne - who bankrolled the voucher effort - called the referendum a "statewide IQ test" that Utahns failed. "They don't care enough about their kids. They care an awful lot about this system, this bureaucracy, but they don't care enough about their kids to think outside the box," Byrne said.

I know that I spend most of my time masturbating to the wondrousness of bureaucracy, that is when I am not involved in cabalic Stalinist meetings planning the overthrow all that baby jesus loves. But wait... It might not be my fault this guy says...

Doug Holmes, a key voucher advocate and contributor, said, "We started hugely in the hole and it's always been the case. The unions have done this in four different states, where they take the strategy of confusion to the people."

Yes, I knew it was the unions, ever since we got that eight hour work day, confusion has been rampant. Seriously, how can I focus when I am grinding for the man only eight hours a day. Imagine if I had health care insurance, then I would be really confused. So confused, that I might think that I should unite with the freedom loving black people of South Carilina... Oh no that's the voucher wingnut again.

Byrne said the referendum defeat may have killed vouchers in Utah, but "There are other freedom oriented groups in other states - African-Americans in South Carolina are interested in it."

Is this guy fuckin serious? Don't shop at overstock.com. ever. please.

Haterade for the Day: $60 and a goodie bag

For most of this 2007 NFL season the heartless and hilarious folks at KSK have been offering a bounty on Tom Brady's knees. Here is the whole series. (scroll down) Now the bounty is fuckin serious. Imagine the glory and fame you can achieve... If you can just do this...

Just picture it: one minute, our friend is delighting at the sweet treats in the window of Jacques Torres Chocolate Haven. The next minute, BOOM! A fucking Lincoln Navigator pins him right against the glass, rupturing vital arteries and teaching him an important lesson in humility. Do you have the steely determination to carry this out? I don’t like what you’ve shown me so far.

And all this can be yours!

My inner European is... Dutch?

Your Inner European is Dutch!

Open minded and tolerant. You're up for just about anything.

Who's Your Inner European?

I don't think I buy this... but whatever.

Guy Fawkes Day

Like Andrew Sullivan, I did not know this. Now I know why election day is in November.

7 things

Okay, the 7eo is closed for the next 15 days. I'm not sure how I will survive. First they closed the patio on Friday and now they closed entirely, WTF?

Otterbutt hit me with this 7 things meme. Apparently, I must know 7 facts about myself. So here goes.

1. I did not vote until I was 32.
2. I was baptized in the LDS Church. (In my defense I went to church three times as a child, NFL plays on Sunday, DUH!)
3. I never wear a seat belt.
4. I have all of John Mellencamps albums
5. I am the worst person ever.
6. I am known as Ronin(my NTN screen name) to some.
7. Because Otterbutt all ready hit all the people I know or would feel comfortable hitting up with this meme. I don't have seven people to send this to. So if any of you are not among Otterbutt's victims read this, feel as tho you have been hit.

Update: Seriously unhappy with the closing of 7eo. As my friend Alice says, "What is up with the ludicrousity!"

Once it was the 80s(and I WAS THERE)

The radio has been playing some oddly sentimental (read cheesy)songs for me the last couple of days. First I heard Your Love by The Outfield.

THE OUTFIELD lyrics

This song reminds me of ex-married girlfriend who was the first person to mention The Outfield to me in fifteen years.
BEST LINE: "Josie's on a vacation far away."
Immediately followed by the classic Rick Springfield joint Jessie's Girl.

SPRINGFIELD RICK lyrics

This song came out when I was like seven or eight and I remember jammin out to it in like the third grade. This is not for story telling purposes, I used wait around to hear that song on the radio for hours. Embarrassing but true. More on this later...
BEST LINE:" wanna tell her that I love her, but the point is probably moot."
Then this morning I heard Crosby Stills and Nash's Southern Cross.

CROSBY STILLS AND NASH lyrics

This song reminds me ... well of me. And the Galapagos Islands because that is the only place I have seen the Southern Cross. Also doesn't fit with the eighties theme but whatever.
BEST LINE:"We never failed to fail it was the easiest thing to do."

I have to say that I think that Jessie's Girl is probably the most embarrassing song that I LIKE. I mean I can't admit this to anyone. I my defense it does ask the immortal question, "Where can I find a woman like that?" What about you, fearless readers(all three of you), what is the most embarassing song you like? Go crazy in comments.

Day one: Ninjas on parade

Ninja Parade Slips Through Town Unnoticed Once Again

This is pretty lame but the pressure of daily blogging is starting to get to me;)

30 Days of Blog

I guess November is National blog posting month or something... and at NaBloPoMo they say we should blog everyday of the month so I'm gonna join the forces of whatever and give it a shot. Anyway DrunkBrunch is going to be doing it which should be vastly entertaining.


HEAR ME NOW PEOPLE BLOG EVERYDAY OR...DIE!!!1!!

So let it be written let it be done.

Those of you who pick nits will say "Chancelot you didn't blog yesterday, your dreamis dead." To which I respond, "Fuck you I'll go to December 1 to make up the difference."

I will try to achieve a lighter tone than this post. Probably excessive 7eo stories, and Cowboys stories because the NFL is heating up folks. Also this does not count as my post but is only serves to warn the unsuspecting of the upcoming.
