Apparently I was at the Circus (4 of 26)

The SaintMay 30th, 2006Posted by The Saint on

So I’m walking on Mass Ave. on my way back to work after lunch. I’m about to get to the extent if this block when this guy turns the corner very fast, rushing past me.
The thing is that he wasn’t running. This guy was on an apparatus with wheels. But there were not two wheels. No there were not three or four. There was one wheel. WHO USES A UNICYCLE AS A MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION?

Now wait, it gets better. Let’s assume the normal unicycle has a wheel that is 2 feet across the whole wheel with a seat at about 3.5 feet. This unicycle was not a normal unicycle. The wheel was at least 4 feet across. This man was barreling through pathway 6 feet off the pavement.

He was wearing his helmet.

NOT MY D POST

Texas Holdem Poker

I have registered to play in the PokerStars World Blogger Championship of Online Poker!

This Online Poker Tournament is a No Limit Texas Holdem event exclusive to Bloggers.

Registration code: 1243372

That’s right, I’m different, Bitch!
For anyone that cares, There is an extra </p> after “Bloggers.” that can get deleted because it’s not actually closing anything, thus showing up in the entry. Also, if you delete the “div style=”height:140px;width:520px;”” (including the surrounding <>) and the </div> at the end, it won’t write over the rest of the page.

I can’t let this be D cause then I’d be on E and I’m so not ready for that yet. Plus I’ll probably have something for D later tonight.

Snakes (not) on Planes (2 of 26)

The SaintMay 29th, 2006Posted by The Saint on

First off, I’m sorry the last entry was so awkward. I will most likely only have 7 or so more that end up as very difficult. I have taken on the challenge and intend to finish.

Now on to the the important things. Now if you all think to later times, you might recall our friends from Florida. The Snake and the Alligator. They had a disagreement that escalated, however, in the end the two of them lost. ( Link for those that forgot.) At the time I thought a snake versus an alligator was the end of crazy shit snakes would think of.

I was wrong. Trivia time: What African animals kills more humans than any other per year?
Lion, standard guess, though not correct.
Elephant, they are quite large however leave most of their rein of terror to circus acts and destroying childhood dreams.
The answer you are looking for is Hippo. They are large and vicious. I saw a National Geographic that mentioned the fact that crocodiles would not mess with young hippo’s if the mother was around, even if the young was right there drinking. Everyone has seen a shot of a croc owning an antelope at a watering hole, so we can see that this is a important point.

Returning to how I started. Snakes. While the following hippo is not full grown, it definitely starts out completely inside this snake. Linked in case you’d rather not see it. Though it’s not really graphic. With this piece of evidence, I would now have small tremors if I got on a plane and saw a snake.

I tried this once before, I didn’t get through much of it. I’ll most likely bitch out on 5 since it will be pretty impossible or it will just be something short. I will do my best to do the 26 of them.

I viewed Pi tonight. It is the second time through, though the I didn’t remember much. Turns out the Jews were still cuckoo. Numbers. Every were in my opinion.

He does lots of repetition of shots. I only noticed slight reworkings when the movie ended. Some of the pill shots were very like those in Requiem. They fit more into Mr. Cohen’s emotions, thus working on more levels beyond film technique. Self-destruction is in both movies, Requiem would be the more potent of the two in my opinion. Requiem’s is simpler to connect to, despite being more over the top.

Let’s stop here, for this is getting very difficult. The review is coming out not good since I need to word things differently. Not sure yet if I will comment in for the entries following the rule. I’ll go with no so better discussion will be produced.

PS I still suck with poker.

Business Decisions

The SaintMay 27th, 2006Posted by The Saint on

I’m going to start a business. This business will be called Burgers, Buns, & Dogs. We will buy large quantities of Burgers, Buns, & Hot Dogs, unpack them and then sell them in new packaging so that each package of buns will have the same number of buns as the packages of Burgers/Hot Dogs.

They guy that came up with the idea to do contest for consumer products, but them make people check a code on a website to see if they won something is a genius.

An Interesting Story About Me, the Internet and Weather

The SaintMay 26th, 2006Posted by The Saint on

Before I left for work today I went to Weather.com and looked what the forecast was for today. There was a Partly Cloudy picture and it said 75 degrees. I head to work. When I get there and start-up internet explorer, Google’s weather image is lightning. WHAT THE FUCK?!? I know weather can change but the days forecast can’t change from Partly Cloudy to FUCKING LIGHTNING in 30 minutes.

In disbelief I go to my office’s homepage to see what their weather box say. Lightning. Now, I’ve been using Weather.com for yours. Does this mean for years I’ve been fooled into using a inferior service by a simple web address? As I contemplate, I turn in my chair and look out the large window and look at the partly cloudy sky. I decide to prod further.

My office’s homepage has a link to AccuWeather.com, so I click it to get more information. AccuWeather.com’s current forecast was partly cloudy. I scroll down to the days forecast. The day is broken into Today and Tonight. BOTH ARE LIGHTNING! Now this is getting ridiculous. It’s time to bust out the hourly forecast.

4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
Rain Rain Partly Cloudy Partly Cloudy Partly Cloudy Partly Cloudy Partly Cloudy Partly Cloudy

Ok, well that explains the lack of lightning now. But still no reason for today’s forecast to be Lightning. What’s the afternoon look like? I click the link for the afternoon.

12 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Partly Cloudy Partly Cloudy Partly Cloudy Partly Cloudy Lightning Partly Cloudy Partly Cloudy Partly Cloudy

Umm … are you telling me an hour of rain that will probably be a thunderstorm is enough to call the whole day Thunderstorm with Lightning? I’m not sure about that one.

By the way, at about 4:30 it started pouring. It’s still raining now and I have to leave. I have no umbrella.

A good day

About to leave from a week in Dallas. Back from the bar a few hours ago. And the 98 World Series is on ESPN Classic.

So I’m at Walston’s today buying my usual sandwich and powerade before practice today. When the cashier is getting out the change, she asks me if I wanted my two pennies. I said sure. Then to myself, “Wait, who the fuck do you think you are that you can rob me of my two cents. They are my pennies, if I don’t want them I’ll put them in the Take-a-Pennie tray.”

Then I thought about it some more. “Hold on here, the sandwich and drink comes out to something like 6.37. You had to go to the coin section of the drawer anyways!”
