On my Mind...Part Deux

Speed Stick 24/7 is the strongest anti perspirant I've ever used. It's crazy. I can get in the shower, run my armpits
under the water, and they still stay dry. Crazy.

I have this co-worker who's rather flamboyant (annoying). He's always doing things that scream out "Hey look at me, I'm
different". When people ask him about his quirky behavior, he practically salivates at the chance, then behind their backs he
talks about how close minded they are. Geesh. His latest attention grabber is replacing his desk chair with a large red pilattes
ball. They were nice enough to buy everyone a nice $400 Herman Miller chair, and he chooses to sit on a red ball that cost $10!
Everytime I walk past him and see him sitting on that damn thing, I want to kick it out from under him. But I know if I do
he will swing at me, and I will powerless against a man with such a strong core, hamstrings and glutes! Oh and did I mention
he wears capri pants? He calls them cabana shorts, but come on, they're ladies capri pants.

Played golf last night after work. The weather was crazy here yesterday. 30 mph wind gusts and seasonable cool. So it was quite
an adventure out there. The co-worker I play with (who sits in a desk chair), is a much better golfer than me, and he struggled
pretty badly as well. It was just tough keeping the ball on line. There was this particular par 3 (hole #8 I believe), which is
positioned around a lake. The wind was particularly strong there. So I aimed at the bunker about 10 yards to the right of the
green and booyah, my ball landed right in the middle of the green. Now if I only I had figured that out after 2 or 3 holes
instead of 8.

Why is it that when you're a kid, 24 hours seems like an eternity, but as an adult, 24 hours seems to go by in the blink of
an eye?

The new Mike O'Meara show really sucked the first two weeks, but it's really picked up the last few days and is turning out to
be very entertaining. I guess after Don's "dick move" of retiring 2 months early, Mike and the gang didn't have much time to
get things ironed out and situated for the show. They seem to be a little better prepared now, and the show seems to flow a lot
better. The first couple weeks, it was like they were looking at the clock to see how much longer they had to speak. Now it
seems a lot more natural. And we're getting to hear sides of Buzz and Robb that we never knew about before. The one thing I miss
from the old show is how Don would play an audio clip from a movie or tv show to setup the next segment of the show.
The full show is available via podcast through iTunes and was ranked #10 last week.

The new season of Big Break is pretty good so far. But there's this one woman who's pretty annoying (isnt there always). She
plays golf without shoes. Her excuse was "my golf shoes and I haven't been getting along real well lately". What!?

Judah Friedlander is hysterical. It's no wonder he's been the world champ for 14 years straight!

TomGreen.com is awesome! He's taken the whole Kosmo Kramer route and put a full talk show set in his house. Then he invites
people like Steve O over to his house, video tapes it, then posts it on his site. He now has some kind of mobile command center
that allows him to do his show while on the road, literally while the bus is rolling down the highway, he can interview someone.
I think the Madden cruiser needs to be setup like this, so we can have a John Madden reality/talk show. "Hi, I'm John Madden and
this week, BOOM, I'm eating short ribs with Brett Favre!!!" Are you listening Fox Sportsnet or Frank Caliendo :-).

That's all I got...
