Connor Is Awesome

Hot chicks greatly affect my opinions.  A hot teacher once asked if I knew where an aquafina vending machine was because she didn’t like Dasani bottled water.  Ever since that day, I don’t like Dasani either.

Hoobastank just released a greatest hits cd.  I shit you not.  Hoobastank…released…a greatest hits cd.   It has 12 songs.  And to my astonishment it wasn’t just “The Reason” 12 times.

Truth be told, crawling in the dark and running away weren’t horrible songs.  But still, what the hell are these 9 other songs they apparently have.  I assume they called it “Hoobstank’s Greatest Hits” because “Every Song by Hoobastank and Nine Songs By Bands That Sound Like Hoobastank” doesn’t have the same ring to it.

I love dancing.  I’ve been trained in jazz, tap, classical, break, and cotton eye joe. So, basically, I could serve you, no problem.  So i respect people who dance in movies.

In all seriousness, here’s a video I thought would suck, but turned out to not hate.  It’s a bunch of movie dance routines set to Footloose.  Can’t argue with that. Worst comes to worst, you get to listen to Footloose.

You ever take a shower after taking a wicked dump?  And you’re washing yourself but all you can smell is the odor from the mess you made in the toilet? Anyways, hope your evening is better than mine.

Well really its the 1154th post.  But its the 700th since the infamous deletion day of august 2008.  I don’t have much to say because 700 isn’t a huge milestone.  So i’ll just give you all an audio present.  Its the best way I’ve found to spend 2 minutes and 10 seconds in quite some time.

Never Shout Never – First Dance

I don’t like to brag about my charity work.  Mostly because I’m usually too busy bragging amount my numerous sexual conquests, fantasy football championships, and hilarious jokes.  But when I hear a kid named Connor has cancer, I can’t just sit back and not post a link to the funds website.

Connor’s Fund – Please, join me and say “no” to cancer.

It took 3 months for me to find the song of the summer.  Surprisingly it’s not Flo Rida, or Katy Perry, or Enrique.  Nope it’s Cee lo.

Enjoy the best song you’re going to hear all summer (and maybe ever).

Comcast is so different.  Why can’t we just make every channel universally the same across all cable providers.  It takes me 20 minutes to figure out where to go to watch the jersey shore.  2oos and 800s for hd? jesus christ.  hbo is like in the middle of the 200s..i think.  at least i get nfl network, mlb network, and red zone finally.  life is good, or will be once i remember where all my channels are.  also, the dvr is much more complicated than it needs to be.

This has already been a great summer.  But this 5 day weekend pushed it over the edge to “super-great. To paraphrase the lyrics to the song we listened to almost constantly during the week, “it felt like a teenage dream.”

Wednesday

Because of prior commitments, I wasn’t able to get down the shore till about 4pm.  But 2 bottles of coke and a bottle of captain more than made up for that.  I arrived to find Ant and Dunn in the middle of a round of shots mario golf.  Diemedio was killin’ it and Dunn was paying the price.  Almost an entire bottle of smirnoff melon was gone.  They finished their round, we grabbed the rest of the smirnoff and a bottle of root beer vodka.  We got out the always enjoyable xbox 360, and started an internation tournament of shots nhl.  Arguably, it was the greatest thing to happen all summer.  As Slovakia surprised people and Peter Budaj became a household name, shot after shot was going through our systems.

After one round, it was time for a man-feast.  What better choice of food than Sean’s popcorn chicken Anytizers.  Dunn heated us all up a plate, and we munched away on the delectable little bites.  As fast as they were put down, they were devoured.  Dunn grabbed the sticks and the Czech’s put on an old fashioned butt whipping on him.  Needless to say, the shots of root beer vodka caught up to him and this was the result:

I find, now that I am a full time employee and no longer a student the biggest change in my life is my opinion of September.  For the better part of 17 years, September meant nothing but the end of freedom and the beginning of school. No longer!  Now September is arguably the month I look forward to most. Everything good in my life happens in September.  To name a few things, Phillies home stretch, football starts, new tv season starts, starts to get a little bit cooler in the air.  There’s probably more reasons September is gonna be sweet.  Labor Day is in September, so there’s one.

Does anyone know if Justin Timberlake is working on a new album yet?

Tonight will be my last nite using RCN cable and internet.  I become a comcast man tomorrow.  I’m excited, but nervous about the new path my life is taking.  I’m nervous about the guy coming to switch out my cable box though. I won’t be here when he is.  I feel like I should take pictures of my room to make sure he doesn’t steal shit.  Like if he steals my dvd copy of Yellowcard: Live in Concert, I probably won’t notice…until it’s too late.

So….new Nelly song? New Nelly song.
