What Am I Up To? and other random musings ![]() 40% of Haiti's national annual budget comes from foreign aid (The U.S. of course being the largest donor) and it's external debt of $1.3 billion was forgiven by the World Bank in 2005. But they still need $58 million raised for hurricane relief? Have they been handing out executive bonuses like AIG over there or what? Watching the Colts beat the Ravens at Gordon Biersch's surrounded by Ravens fans was fun. I was the only true Indy fan there, but no one really talked any smack. I guess because the Ravens never threatened to win the game. I'm sure it would have been different had they at least come close to winning. I'm looking forward to watching the Jets go down next week even though I don't think I'll be hanging with any Jets fans. I could see some people rooting for them just to piss me off though. ;) I had a nice trip back to Michigan for the holidays. I got to see a lot of people and really got to relax. Nothing super exciting happened, but that's kind of the beauty of going back home and hanging out with old friends. You don't need anything exciting happening. It's great just to be in the old 'hood with the friends you grew up with, doing some of the same stuff you did way back when. I wish I could spend more time back there. There are 3 things I don't miss about the Detroit area though. The shitty COLD weather, the shitty roads & the shitty radio stations! It's always been cold and the roads have always been suspect, but what the hell has happened to radio there? Detroit radio used to kick ass! There isn't one good station there anymore. Very disappointing for a city that's always been music conscious.
This Week's Gameball Goes To: Didier Drogba ![]() All week I figured on having the Colts in this spot, but they screwed it up by losing. :( So, I turn to my man Drogba whose awesome 2 goal performance against dreaded Arsenal gave Chelsea the win and put them back on top of the Premier League table. I was getting fed up with Drogba's lack of finishing last year, but he's back and better than ever this year. He's frigging awesome and seems to be finishing everything off this year with cannon like shots. In my book, it's a two man race for player of the year between Drogba and Wayne Rooney. Although I'd bet on Rooney, my heart is definitely with Drogba. If he keeps this up and Chelsea can win the league, maybe he can do it. The Chris Brown Douchebag of the Week Award Goes To: NFL Hall of Fame Voters ![]() Rickey Jackson is a Hall of Famer and Cris Carter isn't?!!!! What the hell is wrong with you people? Cris Carter had possibly the best hands ever! He's obviously one of the best wide receivers in history. Rickey Jackson was good, but he ain't coming close to being a top 10 linebacker of all time. I guess I should expect a decision like this from the same douchebags that took so long to vote in Art Monk. I know receiver numbers have been skewed in the last 20 years, but Cris Carter has got to be a no brainer. This is ri-goddamn-diculous! Hot Chick of the Week: Melita Toniolo ![]()

REVIEWS Check out what I've been watching, listening to, and reading lately... MOVIES Big Fan - 3 out of 5 stars I was pretty disappointed in this one. I figured it was right up my alley, but it turned out to be borderline boring. Patton Oswalt plays a Giants fan whose life pretty much revolves around the team. One night he runs into his favorite player and ends up getting the shit kicked out of him. Oswalt's character then has to decide whether justice is more important than the playoffs. If he pursues charges against the player then he'll be suspended and the Giants will surely tank. And then there is his arch enemy, Philadelphia Phil, to deal with too. There isn't anything I can pick out about this movie that is really good, but it managed to just barely keep my attention and the subject matter is particularly interesting to me. So that's why I had to give it 3 stars. I wouldn't recommend anyone going out of their way to see this though. MUSIC Wilco (The Album) by Wilco - 2 out of 5 stars Basically, this is just a couple good, but not great, songs surrounded by filler. I think I might like it better if I had the chance to really sit and listen to it, but 99% of the time you're listening to music you don't have the time to fully concentrate on just the music. This CD reminds me of their second one, Being There, which is not one of their stronger efforts either. Being There is a double CD which should have been just one CD. Like Being There, Wilco (The Album) is very mellow and could easily put you to sleep, then suddenly wake you up for a minute. If you're a huge Wilco fan you're going to buy this one no matter what anyone says, but if you have any hesitation about getting it, don't. 5 Songs To Download: The Cave by Mumford & Sons Generator 1st Floor by Freelance Whales Life Is 4 Living by Every Boy How I Got Over by The Roots Now We Can See by The Thermals BOOKS I Drink For A Reason by David Cross - 3 and a half out of 5 stars It's pretty simple. If you're familiar with comedian David Cross's stand up and you think it's funny than you'll like this book. If not, you won't. He's a sarcastic enemy of the Right and as he explains in one chapter, if you like Larry The Cable Guy you're not going to like him. The book basically consists of rants on an array of random topics. Chapters include Don't Abandon Your Baby, Scrapbooking in Michigan & Beef with Jim Belushi. There were times I laughed out loud reading this and there were times when it got too convoluted and "high horsey" (did I just make up a term?) to follow or care about. In the end I came away thinking it was pretty funny and worth the read though. TV WATCH: The Office on NBC at 9:00 PM Thursdays The funniest show on TV is back.
