'Cause I really like you as a friend
But there are things I can't pretend
Know I would love you 'til the end
But there is just one problem (problem, problem)

I would never have sex with you
Believe me, you'd know it if I wanted to
I already would have shown my boobs to you
But that will never happen

Favorite TV Game Shows of All Time

2011-01-06T08:43:00.075-07:00

Jeopardy! - No, not just because I was on it, but because it's consistently the smartest and most competitive show on TV
Cash Cab - Wildly uneven because the contestants have no idea they're going to be on a Game Show - but that's 90% of the fun
High Rollers - The basic game design, trying to eliminate the numbers from 2 through 12 by rolling two dice was elegant, rewarding strategy, quick odds calculation and guts
Win Ben Stein's Money - Ben defended his money well, making this a tough game on the contestants
Card Sharks - A simple game of guessing if the next card would be higher or lower than the previous one, it was another game that encouraged and rewarded guts
The Price is Right - "One dollar, Bob!" "Have your pets spayed or neutered"
Password - You had to be quick witted giving and receiving clues in this game
Remote Control - A great parody of the Game Show format, we all loved to "Sing Along With Colin"
Beat the Geeks - A show I wouldn't have done well on - unless that Simpsons Geek was on, who I would have cleaned the floor with!
Let's Make a Deal - Free Form Fun! The host could basically do anything to keep the show exciting, and, in the show's best moments, did just that!

Best NFL Football Game Telecasts

2010-12-30T08:34:00.000-07:00

NBC Sunday Night Football - Best announce crew, highest production values, best halftime show. This is the best telecast in every conceivable way.
ESPN Monday Night Football - With a good three-man booth (when they're not walking all over each other), this is a strong second.
The NFL on Fox - While not on par with the two once-a-week telecasts, Fox has some underrated announce teams, and adding former NFL Vice President of Officiating Mike Pereira has given a meaningful insight to replay calls
The NFL on CBS - Touchdown! [2 minute commercial break] Kickoff and return. [2 minute commercial break] In a 10 to 15 minute period, we're seeing two plays run. Break it up some...
Thursday Night Football on the NFL Network - I like Matt Millen as an announcer more than most viewers, bit Theisman is horrible and, for a network promoting its own product, this telecast is a disgrace.

Nicknames for Women I've Been Involved With*

Mostly from the "old days" of this blog when I wrote a lot more. No identities will be revealed, but, use your brain, you'll figure out most of them...

X-C'mon, this one is easy
2C-From a song I wrote about her
5-55-Remember thinking how you'd never use Roman Numerals in your everyday life? Me too...
FYA-The last three words I ever spoke to her, or ever will
TLO-Far too sad to ever reveal

Things/People That Have Delayed Me

2010-11-11T09:25:00.103-07:00

The 14th Dalai Lama - After a speech at the Performing Arts Center in Long Beach, California, the Dalai Lama made an unscheduled stop-off at a Buddhist Monastery in my neighborhood. This made me late for work.

President Bill Clinton - Late one night while living in Iowa, I was delayed by a passing motorcade containing President Bill Clinton. After the motorcade passed, I continued on to my destination, a strip bar. I did not run into the President later that night.

Ally McBeal TV Shoot - Long Beach, CA, trying to get to work. I'd never even watched a whole episode of Ally McBeal.

President Gerald Ford - I just wanted to see my dad at the hospital, but Ford's people picked the Air Force Base we were living at to refuel Air Force One. He spoke for a bit, all of Rapid City, SD showed up to listen. Now they were all leaving at the same time.

Some Large Piece of an Oil Refinery - The joys of living in a refinery town! Of all of my delays, this was the furthest, as, being new to town and not knowing my way around, I drove over 20 miles out of my way to get to work that day.

President George W. Bush - Trying to leave a job interview in Denver, CO, I saw that my freeway entrance was blocked by Police. Being up on the news, I knew the President was in town, not knowing my way around Denver, I probably took the stupidest route possible back to Cheyenne.

A Nuclear Warhead - Growing up near lots of nuclear missiles, this one actually happened more than once. Funny thing about security around warhead convoys, they take it pretty seriously...

Honda Commercial Shoot - I just wanted to go get some groceries, but trucks and cables and people in the street forced me to drive blocks out of my way. Since this crap happened a lot in Long Beach, the novelty wore off quickly.

Take a point called Z in the complex plane
Let Z1 be Z squared plus C
And Z2 is Z1 squared plus C
And Z3 is Z2 squared plus C and so on
If the series of Z's should always stay
Close to Z and never trend away
That point is in the Mandelbrot Set

This might be strange to tell you
And I swear I'm not a whore
But there are 206 bones in my body
And I'd really like
One more, one more, one more (one more)

The goal is 2,500 so I am going to stick to that. I feel like it is very realistic. People didn't think 2,000 was realistic when I set the goal last year and I made a lot of people believers, so I am going to stick to that.

Then it turns midnight, the shitty old year spent
Another Mom gives her some sparkling wine
And she nearly gives in to the moment
But he'll still be sick in 2009

You know what hope is?
Hope is a bastard
Hope is a liar
A cheat and a tease
Hope comes near you?
Kick it's backside
Got no place in days like these
