10.27.08 - blumpkin patch


fun with photoshop!

so it's a shitty san diego sports year... padres, who HAD an awesome bullpen the year before, had an absolutely terrible season this year... now the chargers, with one of the best passing defenses, are playing like shit (editor's note: i had a really horrible comment about the padres/chargers playing like sarah palin's retarded son... but i decided not to keep it... or did i?)

will the chargers make the playoffs this year? i dunno... the broncos would REALLY need to choke for that to happen... cutler's a bitch

what's the deal here?... i am royally fucked in my two yahoo! fantasy sports leagues... but in espn fantasy... i'm rockin (probably because no one really cares about espn leagues and i'm totally taking advantage of that) -- n/m... i just answered my own question

the nba and the lakers start the season tomorrow... tnt... boom


yay... i mailed my absentee ballot today. i have a voice!

so i bought rockband 2 from circuit city over the weekend (don't get me started with deepdiscount) and then as i got home, i got a coupon in the mail from them for $20 off $150 -- awesome deal... i check online and the coupon works for the game. gameplan was to go to the store and have them credit me $20 back to my card

i couldn't stop thinking about that old commercial they had -- with the kid who walked across town to a CC, says to the guy, "last week i bought this, and today i saw this... just opened up the paper and there it was!"

and without flinching, the CC employee gives him some change and the kid says, "that's it? cool!"

well.. i actually had a competent employee help me and i got my $20 back -- i didn't have to grovel... didn't have to buy it online and then return it with my old receipt... i love when things work out

gotta love youtube for this shit

damn... the employees back then wore suits and look like... dammit.. i can't put a name to his face... he was a "big" star in the 80's... anyone remember?

10.19.08 - sunday, bloody sunday

friggin' san diego sports...

damn... my true form shows when people take photos of me -- nice work, chaunce

it's always sunny in philadelphia

so another thing i'm reaaaallly behind on is "it's always sunny in philadelphia" -- you can watch it on hulu! i just got seasons 1 and 2 from netflix (season 4 on hulu)... the topics of each episode are pretty funny -- things like the glory hole and who pooped the bed...

i think hulu has a huge influence in me giving this show a chance...

call me a sucker, but i'm gonna try to get season tix again next year -- hey, it gives me something to do during spring - summer (better than joining a gang, i guess)... this is good news too

rockband 2 is out -- but thanks to the folks at deepdiscount, i probably won't get it delivered for 1-2 weeks.... check out the drum trainer image [ awesomeness ] -- yes, freestyle mode... that is soooo sick..

gorirra's back in business... well we weren't ever down, but we have a new client! when finished, it'll be a business site for four different branches: real estate, insurance, business services, and taxes... can't wait to dive into this one

the string quartet is pretty cool to listen to... they basically take popular (mainly modern) songs and turn them into classical renditions..

queens of the stone age - no one knows:

radiohead - karma police:

linkin park - somewhere i belong:

yea i know there's some code to make one stop while the other plays... i thought i did it, but whatever.. i'm lazy

10.14.08 - we keep on waiting...

so playstation released a new firmware update (v2.50) [ link ] --

i got some games comin' to me pretty soon (damn ye, tim... damn ye): fifa 09, nhl 09, and rockband 2. i was going to partake in the "TRU b2g1 sale", but couldn't think of a third game to get... so i decided to do the "live.com/ebay 30% deal"

nhl 09 should be good -- ign [ link ] apparently likes it... it's been a while since i've played an ea sports nhl game -- but that one was fun

10.10.08 - i didn't even have to use my a.k.

today was a good day -- photoshopped some friend's faces onto david hasselhoff's body, revamped my work site, and even had enough time to fix a fucked up ie6 error with it...

so i hear that my site's blocked by websense at work b/c of the language on my site AND i could possibly get it unblocked if i clean up the language a bit

....

meh... fuck it... it give my site an edge that it's blocked! fuck y'all

thursday night live was pretty damn funny -- the presidential debate skit was awesome. i'm not really a fan of fred armisen's obama voice (he has the look down), but darrell hammond's mccain is pretty damn good

btw... watch cartoon network's star wars: the clone wars -- yea yea they did it before with the cartoon, but this is in the same style as the movie (which i haven't seen) [ link ]

when is it? oh it's at a perfect time for star wars nerds -- friday @9p -- what else do they have to do on a friday night? pfft

10.08.08 - i <3 pandora

i guess that symbol doesn't work for serif fonts...

oh and i gotta say -- i made fun of sarmad during the podcast a while back for his idea of emailing himself ideas or thoughts... i find myself doing that a lot now to save post ideas -- good one, sarmad...

so i get a lot of random things from friends at work... a lot of 'em funny -- ch-ch-check it

i'm the juggernaut, BITCH -- fuckin' awesome audio dub of the old x-men cartoon

awesome website builder -- what a crazy idea... i get jealous at how "easy" this looks... it's riddick

and then a joke:

A Polish man moved to the USA and married an American girl.

Although his English was far from perfect, they got along very well until one day he rushed into a lawyer's office and asked him if he could arrange a divorce for him.

The lawyer said that getting a divorce would depend on the circumstances, and asked him the following questions:

L: Have you any grounds?
P: Yes, an acre and half and nice little home.

L: No, I mean what is the foundation of this case?
P: It made of concrete.

L: I don't think you understand. Does either of you have a real grudge?
P: No, we have carport, and not need one.

L: I mean. What are your relations like?
P: All my relations still in Poland.

L: Is there any infidelity in your marriage?
P: We have hi-fidelity stereo and good DVD player.

L: Does your wife beat you up?
P: No, I always up before her.

L: Is your wife a nagger?
P: No, she white.

L: Why do you want this divorce?
P: She going to kill me.

L: What makes you think that?
P: I got proof.

L: What kind of proof?
P: She going to poison me. She buy a bottle at drugstore and put on shelf in bathroom. I can read, and it say: Polish Remover".

bah zing... (thanks to andy, chaunce, and nick)

10.07.08 - another quasi idea

so i had this idea, but mark pretty much shot it down... you know how sports teams will put their logo on anything and practically any fan will buy that shit? how about a toaster that toasts the team logo onto the bread? i know i'd love me some charger bread... eh?

but i think it's already been done... well not for sports teams at least -- and if it was, it wasn't officially sanctioned by the leagues

that's a goldmine right there...

and i think i'm the last person to join this bandwagon (no, tim... not the dodgers bandwagon), but hulu is pretty damn slick -- it's kinda like going to each of the station's web sites and streaming it there, but it's all in one site. BIG PLUS: it has three sheets on it -- boom.

the palin/biden debate spoof on snl was friggin hilarious -- i'm sure snl is kinda wanting mccain/palin to win the erec... election... tina fey's bringing in the ratings
