I found this......I'm a little scared

Yes, that's Nash.

The cackle of a man who's ankle should be broken.

Nash and BellThey are not supposed to look like this!!!!!!!!!! They are supposed to be on the floor in a heap of misery crying like babies to their mamas!

"I don't know what the HELL happened with the MAVS. It may be a combination of me not watching the entire game and Jenny physically being in the city where the game took place. I can only hope that total humiliation will rev our engines like never before and we will demoralize the Suns for two straight games. Sheesh. The game tomorrow night shal be redemption!"
-K-town

Amen K, amen.

I Heart Devin

Devin Harris
Last night was a rough night, but it's gotta be said, Devin Harris played an amazing game. Sometimes he's on and sometimes he's off, but last night he was ON FIRE! Congrats Devin, I salute you.

Here's my take on Game 1. Remember Game 1 of the Spurs/Mavs series. We were off our game, maybe even a little too used to playing Memphis, a series devoid of true entertainment value. The rhythm was off the speed was messed up, things didn't go well. BUT we bounced back.

Give us another practice and Avery yelling some sweet nothings in everyone's ears and we're right back in the game.

One more thing. I heard the Dallas Morning News told fans to boo Nash, but he's Steve Nash a class act former Mav, big momba jomba, quick foot, long haired, MVP basketball playin' man. You can't boo Nash! After hearing about how sad Finley was when the Mavs fans booed him I can't bare to think that we are inflicting that kind of pain on dear little Nashy.

KeaneIf anyone is interested there is a new Keane single on iTunes "Is It Any Wonder" from their upcoming album Under The Iron Sea. It has a very different sound from their debut, more electric than usual, but it's good.

Interesting bit of useless trivia.

Daniel Powter
I've been wanting the Daniel Powter cd for a while and have been slowly buying the songs one by one on iTunes. I am now the owner of the entire album and decided to do a little research about the man.

In reality my only goal was to find a single picture of him without some sort of hat on. When I started looking I found picture after picture with hat head. This got me thinking...what's wrong with his head? Why is he covering this up? Is he balding? Is he already bald? Does he have one of those Mikhail Gorbachev red splat marks on his melon?

The answer to all these questions is no. According to Wikipedia, when Daniel Powter was little he was hit by a car and left with a large scar on his head. He wears a hat to cover the scar, and has over 40 beanies in his wardrobe.

I'm sure all of you already knew this but I had to crack the code and inform everyone of my new found bit of useless trivia.

Enjoy.

Brady's and Toe Nails

Brady Bunch
Ok, this is post number two for today, but I have two stories I need to divulge to you.

Story 1: This weekend there was a 48 hour Brady Bunch marathon. I know what you're thinking and it is a lot of crazy Brady-ness. I was never a huge fan of the Brady’s and only watched when the other choice was MASH or other low caliber shows, however Katy turned it on Saturday morning and we kept coming back to it again and again. I spent a great deal of my weekend watching the Brady's going to the Grand Canyon, having a see-saw record breaking contest, building boys and girls club houses, getting stuck in a freezer, and having family photos taken, you name it I pretty much saw it.

The highlight of all the Brady’s would have to be when Katy described the Brady Bunch Reunion (which her family watches every Easter and she doesn't know why) to me where you find out what happened to all of them. To my dismay none of them went on to become drug addicts, alcoholics, or porn stars, but according to Katy one of them almost got a divorce...which was conveniently resolved by the end of the storyline.

toe tagStory 2: I decided to go get a pedicure this weekend since I wear flip flops most days now and people have to see my feet. Well the lady doing the pedicure told me that I cut my toe nails too short...something I don't have a problem with. Better too short than too long if you ask me.

Well, according to her cutting your toe nails too short is bad for your heart and can cause you to die. I know what you’re thinking this lady is crazy...and that is totally true. However, if I do die in the next couple weeks I want you all to make sure to tell the doctor that I cut my toe nails too short and not to bother with an autopsy.

How can anyone not love the NBA?

Clutch This image was on their homepage today and I thought of Jenny. It is beyond me why anyone would subject themselves to NOT being a part of this game. With players like Dirk, Jason Terry, LeBron, Kobe, Duncan, Nash, good old Sam Cassell, Chauncey Billups KG, Shaq,Tony Parker, and Dwayne Wade pulling triple doubles, flagrant fouls, blocks, 3 pointers, and sweet dunks game after game. Everyone should invest their time in at least one of the Mavs v Spurs series. This is a knock down drag out fighting tooth and nail series that will have you yelling "suckas!" at your TV one minute and praying to the basketball gods the next.

As far as I'm concerned any game that combines smooth moves, sweet kicks, monster jams, and the occasional Ron Artest moment to keep you on your toes is as good as it gets.

Thanks James Naismith for reading up on international games in 1891 and coming up with your own version called basketball. The only purely American sport.

ps. Is it just me or does this look like Dirk and Nash if they were playing in the 70's?

Conversation from a dinner party with Voldemort:

Voldemort: This is interesting, what kind of mushrooms are these?
Kristi: Shitoki
Voldemort: Interesting
Kristi: So what have you been up to lately?
Voldemort: Oh same old same old. Trying return to my celebrity status, but as usual getting crapped on all the way.
Kristi: Sorry man.
Voldemort: No worries, I'm working on a new plan to update my image. Maybe I should hook up with Lindsay Lohan or I could break up Britney Spears marriage and father her child.
Kristi: She's already pregnant again.
Voldemort: Damnit.

Happy Birthday Bono!

I Heart Bono I would like to wish Bono a Happy 46th Birthday. I like to believe he is pointing to me in this picture and saying something like "you're even better than the real thing" or "Apple loves me, how many iPods do you want?” May you never stop making music, or annoying my mom with your political schemes.

T-shirt Contest

Several weekends ago I decided that I was going to take my camera everywhere I went just in case I came upon something picture worthy. Much to my surprise I came in contact with several things that caught my eye. Some of them being a dragon fly (something I see very rarely), a man on a giant tricycle, and a gas station with gas prices that boggled my mind.

One other photo was this one:dressed up car
I parked next to this car at Target and couldn't get over the state the inside was in. First of all every seat in the car is wearing a t-shirt. If a person was wearing a t-shirt with that kind of low smiley face neckline you would either be witnessing a peep show or a hairy chest exhibition.

It also appears as though the person that owns the car lives on a steady diet of Wendy's. Only a small portion of the trash can be seen from this angle, but you can see at least three cups and two bags of trash from the Old Fashioned hamburger joint.

I'll admit this blog has literally no point whatsoever. And considering I failed to blog yesterday you would think this would be a stellar entry, but I feel as though I have failed to reach even the sub-genius level. To fill the void I will now post the picture of the dude on the huge tricycle.

Churros, Chimichangas, Guacamole, and a Donkey

Cinco de Mayo, the the 5th of May. I really have no idea what Cinco de Mayo is celebrating, but I do know that it is not Mexican Independence day as many believe. I actually read a whole article about the day on Friday and have retained nothing but the fact that it is not Mexican Independence Day. Regardless we celebrated the day of non-independence and it was a very memorable experience.

Jackie was kind enough to purchase a lovely donkey piƱata from the Mexican store. Keep in mind this store does not sell actual Mexicans. Sadly the donkey was red, white and blue…not the red, white and green you would think it would be, but it still did the job. We couldn’t find a hole to put the candy inside so Jackie took the liberty of creating her own hole, an ass hole if you will. Here she is filling said donkey through said hole.

puBecause we didn’t have a tree to hang it from or a bat to swat at it we decided to play baseball with donkey and use a golf club as the bat. It doesn’t get more ghetto (or amazing) than this.

Here’s Katy at the bat.

donkey baseball
It only took one hit to do the thing in and this is how I decided to use the legs.

Good Cinco de Mayo.

Cloodle cloodle cloodle cloodle cloodle cloodle


Hoopla! Last night was yet another amazing night! First we played a round of Jeopardy and Andy kicked some serious butt as usual. Next the real fun began with a little game called Hoopla. There are four possible ways to play each card:

Tongue-Tied: "Funky. Footwear. Fashionable. Fad." … "It's platform shoes!" Brainstorm words that all start with the same letter to describe the card you're holding.

Soundstage: Why does your friend look like he's trying to hail a rescue plane while humming your school's fight song? He's acting out "cheerleader"! This activity encourages you to act out fun clues -- with sound effects!

Tweener: "It's bigger than a gladiator, but smaller than Rome." … "That's the Colosseum!" Craft a pair of clever clues to help teammates zero in on the answer.

Cloodle: Is that a drawing of a safari or animal crackers? Hey, it's the zoo! Get in touch with your inner artist as you sketch fun clues about the cards in your hand.

This may sound like another game of Cranium and frankly it is quite close but after recrafting the rules and throwing the timer out the window we were able to create some choice memories.

Here are my top five:

1. Katy crowd surfing on the couch while trying to act out "mosh pit"

2. Andy flexing, not flashing us, and pretending to be a boozer while trying to act out Marti Gras.

3. Me using the phrase "muppet flip top head" to help them get to Pez

4. Kristin's clue, "it's bigger than a biscuit
and smaller than the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man" Priceless!

5. Katy playing the pretend piano and saying "whooooo whoooo" in an effort to be Elton John.

Needless to say it was an AMAZING night that can not truly be described in words. Thank you Hoopla!

All hail Michael! You're one crazy ass mo fo, but at least Anna Lucia is dead. Props to Adam for calling that right before it happened, genius.

Last night was a ridiculous night of television. ANTM, Alias, Lost, Idol (which I don't really follow but now know that that one girl got kicked off), that's roughly 2 1/2 hours of my life that are gone and would never ask to get back. All in all an amazing night.

Congratulations you're white!


Katy and I had our first session yesterday. I use the word session loosly beacuse she is neither a psychiatrist or a mental health professional of any kind. She IS however, the owner of an interesting book called The Color Code. I've taken these color tests several times but it is always fun to take them again. Turns out I am mostly white and blue...a true Mavs fan to the core as you can see. Some noted celebrities that also have these color personalities are Michael Jackson (scary), Jimmy Carter, Abraham Lincoln, Einstein, Princess Diana and Walt Disney. I gotta say that is quite the array of people.

According to the website whites are motivated by PEACE. They seek independence and require kindness. They resist confrontation at all costs. To them, feeling good is more important than being good. (how did they know that?) They are typically quiet by nature, process things very deeply and objectively with great clarity. Of all the colors, WHITES are the best listeners. They respect people who are direct but recoil from perceived hostility or verbal battle. (this is getting freaky)

WHITES need their "alone time" and refuse to be controlled by others. (couldn't be more true) WHITES want to do things their own way and in their own time. They ask little of others and resent others demanding much of them. WHITES are much stronger than people think, but are not often seen for their strength because they don't easily reveal their feelings. WHITES are even-tempered, diplomatic, and the voice of reason; but can also be indecisive, unexpressive, and silently stubborn. (wow, these color people are freaking amazing!) When others interact with you, as a WHITE you respond to them best if they are kind, accepting and supporting of your individuality, and if they look for non-verbal clues to understand your feelings.

I miss you old Apple logo


Go here watch good stuff.

Do it again but bop better!

Thanks to a little online store called areyougame.com, amazing name by the way, I am now the owner of Bop It Extreme 2! A souped up version of the original Bop It Extreme that now has new features, including volume control. Everyone should go ahead and thank Hasbro for this new feature because without it you would get to hear the racecar steering wheel shout "spin it!, flick it!, twist it!,"do it again but bop better! and many other lovely yet ridiculously loud commands and insults.

Let me apologize in advance to Katy as she will have to hear the brunt of this shouting. BUT, if you're nice I might let you play too and we could even play against one another. Does anyone else smell good times, because I do.
