Thursday Random Thoughts 7/10/2008

Stuff I have been thinking about:

-Does anyone else think that history may be repeating itself? Madonna who has long tried to tie herself to Marilyn Monroe seems to be trying to position herself just as Marilyn did by being involved with the best baseball player of their generation. She is being creative in it by claiming that they are only "Kaballah buddies" Is that what they call it these days? (Oh yeah and where did that groin pull come from A-Rod?)

-Speaking of baseball, I can't wait until August 7th. Not only am I going with my whole family to see the Mets in their final season at Shea Stadium and taking my son to his first major league ball game but I am going to get a chance to hang out with the Mt. Cat for the first time in over a year. I am looking forward to seeing you Vin! Anyone else in the NY City area on August 7th is welcome to come and hang out with us for the 12:10 pm matinee game against the Padres.

-Odd or interesting search note of the week: This weeks government search of our blog came from the State Department in Washington DC. What were they searching? The name Jim James Astley. Not sure who that is but maybe they were a bit off on the first name and kept getting Rick Rolled at other sites.

-Hey Rev. Jesse Jackson... How about SHUT IT!... you aren't helping things - AND by the way you couldn't do it even if you tried, Sincerely Barack Obama. P.S. - That's not change we can believe in.

-Woo Hoo only two weeks until Carolina Panthers training camp starts !! I am already looking forward to the season. I no longer have season tickets but we usually go to several games each year. So far the only one I am scheduled to go to is against the hated Atlanta Falcons but I am sure as the season goes on I will end up going to more games. That's another great thing about the Panthers is there are always tickets to be had to games. I am so pumped up for this season!!

-I told anyone who would listen 12 freakin' years ago that the parents didn't murder JonBenet Ramsey. Now they finally get around to DNA testing. Now how about you go catch the real damn killer!!!

- I love ole Huey Lewis, but did anyone else see him drop the mic last week on the 4th during his performance on "A Capitol Fourth" while he was singing Power of Love? I thought it was hilarious. Well at least we know that he wasn't lip-syncing

-Speaking of "A Capitol Fourth" this show keeps going downhill every year. Taylor Hicks got second billing behind Huey Lewis and the News. Yeesh... and I thought Jason Alexander doing a cabaret version of "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy" a few years ago was rock bottom. Apparently not.

-On a final note those who know me are aware that I really struggle with change. Especially big life changes. I tend to get some serious anxiety and become distracted. I am in the middle of going through a serious life change right now that I am not able to fill you guys in on right now so bear with me if I seem distracted or something and I promise I will tell you all about it when I am able to.
