We'd all like to think that the days of Jim Crow are long gone. We'd all like to think that we're past the point of discriminating against people based on their skin color. Today's segregationists are using a much more subtle method with the same result however.<br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />Don't believe me? <a href="http://coloradoindependent.com/12872/voting-rights-group-sue-colorado-secretary-of-state-over-purges">Look at what is going on in Colorado this week</a>. S<a href="http://www.sos.state.co.us/pubs/info_center/biography.htm">ecretary of State Mike Coffman</a> is purging voters from the rosters this close to the election. He's doing this in clear violation of the National Voting Rights Act (NVRA) which prohibits purging a voter within 90 days of a federal election. Naturally, Coffman is a Republican who is trying to purge the rolls of those folks who might not vote for the GOP. You know, minorities and the poor.<br /><br />Guess what Coffman's defense to this is? It's absolutely absurd, however, Coffman's defense is that state law allows him to violate the NVRA. Now, I know that with my Juris Doctorate, I might have a leg up on some people. However, we all had civics in grade school sometime and the point of that lesson is that FEDERAL LAW TRUMPS STATE LAW!!!<br /><br />What is particularly disturbing is that the Jim Crow laws in the South were often defended on this state's right claim. All Coffman and several other GOP election officials are doing is creating a new more subtle form of Jim Crow laws. There is currently a federal lawsuit over this and let's all hope that the Courts can see right through this bullshit.<br /></div>Cincysundevilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14213545857413956977noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697922.post-33644534064828974772008-10-28T16:46:00.012-05:002008-10-29T00:07:02.998-05:00Let's Try This Again : Top Five Tuesday<div style="text-align: justify;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/SQfvKEg_gFI/AAAAAAAAAT8/LquswhcX3yU/s1600-h/Antichrist.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/SQfvKEg_gFI/AAAAAAAAAT8/LquswhcX3yU/s320/Antichrist.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5262437645895565394" border="0" /></a>I used to love this posting every week. I used to giggle with glee in the past when I would start thinking of topics. I would rack my brains for the week leading up to Tuesday. So why not do something I enjoy with my blog .... after all, it is my blog. So, without further delay, here we go with my relaunching of Top 5 Tuesday:<br /></div><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Top 5 Disappointments of 2008 (So far ..... )</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">5. Rush Limbaugh hasn't OD'ed on hillbilly herion, Bill O'Reilly hasn't contracted Hepatitis C, nor has Anne Coulter gotten her ass kicked by a lesbian :</span> <span style="font-style: italic;">The good Lord hasn't seen fit to let us witness his vengance, but trust me, it will be sweet when it happens.</span><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">4. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull :</span> <span style="font-style: italic;">Seriously, almost 20 years to make this movie? It felt like Speilberg and Lucas threw a script together in a few hours. Oh yeah, any time you bring in the kid of one of the characters for more than a "by the way" character, you've <a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=jump+the+shark">jumped the shark</a>.</span><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">3<span style="font-weight: bold;">. Arizona State Football :</span> <span style="font-style: italic;">Pre-season Top 20 team and for the 1st 2 games, it looked like they might actually live up to it. However, a loss to UNLV at home and my team dropped quicker than a drunk sorority girl's bra at a "Girls Gone Wild" bar event. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">2. The current music scene : </span><span style="font-style: italic;">Seriously, there is no one band that has gotten me fired up. Hell, even Hinder somehow managed to drag their useless chach rock carcasses off of the county fair circuit and back onto MTV. Everything being played is so promoted by the industry, there is absolutely no chance for anything different and exciting to come along. How many more "straight from the street" hip-hop acts can come along,make it big, and then they're never heard from again? Heard anything from Young Joc or Webstar lately? Didn't think so ......</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">1. The Death of LeRoi Moore :</span> <span style="font-style: italic;">This isn't really a disappointment per say in that it's not something he did or didn't do. Rather, I'm more disappointed in myself for not realizing how fleeting life can be. My friends CV, MC and I went to the Dave Matthews Band concert at Piedmont Park in Atlanta. It was an amazing show and you don't stop to think that it could be the last time you see someone. I guess whether Dave and the Band stay together or split up is whatever they think LeRoi would've wanted. </span><br /></div>Cincysundevilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14213545857413956977noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697922.post-91602962783467037682008-10-27T15:44:00.001-05:002008-10-29T00:07:33.437-05:00Monday's Piece of Meat<div style="text-align: justify;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/SQd-0sdGauI/AAAAAAAAAT0/zqxoYIRkKpQ/s1600-h/KW.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 131px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/SQd-0sdGauI/AAAAAAAAAT0/zqxoYIRkKpQ/s320/KW.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5262314133357226722" border="0" /></a>I can usually sympathize with most people. A single mother with 2 kids who is working and going to school I'll give big ups to. A blue collar father working 3rd shift at the factory to make that extra bit of money so that his home doesn't go into repossession and his kids have what they need gets all the respect possible from me. The student going to school and working 2 jobs to pay tuition is due all the praise possible. These are the people who represent the backbone of America.<br /><br />But let's turn to another group of people who deserve neither praise nor respect: the spoiled prima-donnas of sports and entertainment.<br /><br />See, this was brought on with a crybaby claim this weekend. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kellen_Winslow_II">Kellen Winslow</a> of the Cleveland Browns has recently had a staph infection stemming from prior injuries. The team has had 6 of them this year. Shouldn't a team paying a player $40 million for 6 years take better care of him? Absolutely. Doesn't a player deserve to get his injuries treated as best as possible? Well, no more than you or I but yes, we all deserve health care.<br /><br />But .... then again, shouldn't a candyass getting that much money read his contract first? In 2006 Winslow was hurt in the 2nd game of the year so he was out the rest of the season. Before the 2007 season, Winslow was hurt again only this time it was his fault. He was riding a motorcycle in a community center parking lot. Not his fault? Maybe .... but his contract stipulates that he was not to be riding a motorcycle. So for $40 million dollars, he couldn't pay for someone to summarize his contract in easy to read language? For $40 million dollars you couldn't chill out at home playing X-Box or PS3? I think for that much money you could afford a system and a few games.<br /><br />Now he's claiming that he's being treated as a "piece of meat" because of his current staph infection. Now I've had some great cuts of meat, but never a $40 million piece of meat. Unfortunately, this cut is spoiled rotten and smells to holy hell.</div>Cincysundevilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14213545857413956977noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697922.post-45007530862782604062008-10-26T20:23:00.010-05:002008-10-29T00:08:18.991-05:00How College Football Is Like An Abusive Relationship<div style="text-align: justify;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/SQUxHxUlnJI/AAAAAAAAATs/QMnFRHRtA1I/s1600-h/Rudy+sux.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 197px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/SQUxHxUlnJI/AAAAAAAAATs/QMnFRHRtA1I/s320/Rudy+sux.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5261665749220826258" border="0" /></a>My relationship with my favorite teams is abusive. It really is. Imagine if you will an episode of Cheaters with me as the spurned husband and my beloved ASU football team as the low-down cheating spouse:<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Cue the intro music ... Show Joey Greco's cheesy goatee, etc......</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Joey: Hi, I'm Joey Greco and meet the Devil. A fragile, older fan who suspects that his ASU football team is flirting with complete and utter failure this season. In our interview, the Devil explains his suspicisions.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Devil: I don't know what's going on. I mean, like last season. They were winning and then towards the end of the season, they started letting me down. They beat Arizona but couldn't come through when it really mattered. Maybe it was the euphoria of being undefeated for so long. But I love them and decided to give them one more season. After all, I have a degree from ASU, you know? I have my suspicions that they're being unfaithful to their promises from last season.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Joey: As the Devil's suspicions grow, our private investigators trail ASU to confirm their infidelity.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Voiceover: Game 1 and Game 2 seem uneventful. ASU does what it needs to do to against Northern Arizona and Stanford. In Game 3, a new mistress appears. Cheater's PI's have identified this mistress as LOSING appears. In Games 4, 5, 6 and 7 yet another mistresss identified as GETTING YOUR ASS HANDED TO YOU appears and never leaves.</span><br /><br />Yeah, this is about how badly things have went this season. It's like an abusive relationship with that friend we all know. No matter how you put it, he or she won't leave their abusive partner. They always somehow rationalize it as I would. The friend might tell you "BUT you don't understand him/her. You don't get to see the nice things that go on." Or in my case ... "You didn't see last season. They were so good."<br /><br />I guess I'll have to catch ASU in the bed we share on top of <span style="font-style: italic;">COMPLETELY PATHETIC </span>before I'll consider leaving.<br /></div>Cincysundevilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14213545857413956977noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697922.post-8699375295116239102008-10-25T10:51:00.015-05:002008-10-29T00:08:56.375-05:00Dear Axl ....<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/SQNJhwx8DmI/AAAAAAAAATk/qpf6_zdsZBc/s1600-h/Axl.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 239px; height: 319px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/SQNJhwx8DmI/AAAAAAAAATk/qpf6_zdsZBc/s320/Axl.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5261129634077740642" border="0" /></a>Dear Axl,<br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Like everyone else, I've been waiting for well over a decade for this "masterpiece" that you've been working on. Sure, I know you've been busy. After all, cornrows need tons of daily maintenance and you still have to wash those bicycle shorts everyday. You must spend hours still searching for Jerry Rice Oakland Raiders #80 jerseys. Hell, surfing eBay all day for those things is exhausting.<br /><br />But please do us fans a couple of favors prior to "releasing" Chinese Democracy next month. 1st, get into shape. During your <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STc30hsUCoY">2002 VMA appearance</a>, you sounded out of breath. I sound like that when I do a 2-mile run so I know that feeling. I know, I know; it's tough when you're over 30 to just start running and exercising. Plus, personal trainers are expensive and $12 million dollars just doesn't go as far as it once did. We all have to watch our spending these days.<br /><br />Another thing, please quit cancelling shows. See, what you do is you create ill will. Some of your old fans from back in the day might actually want to see you in concert. These poor guys are willing to shell out a couple of hundred hard earned dollars from their jobs as <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJW642sTyT9pIKy_dfPQdR_9TvCQNZInzOeYQkYRrvL4SEqj0UovuNbM0z9OKc8qfoqqjtiux1FT2KPFyf9oGZdop6WPGjXxfNvvfnuxn0NzecYNZc-wjgt4Kz8XsXurZx-NZ6/s1600-h/Carny+2.jpg">carnys</a>, <a href="http://www.theonion.com/content/files/images/onion_news1812.jpg">working at Taco Bell</a>, <a href="http://www.tonepros.com/DWeiderman_files/DWeiderman.jfif">picking up a few extra hours at Guitar Center</a>, or at Big Ed's Quik-E Oil Change for a pair of those nose bleed seats at the Value City arena in the heartland of O-Hi-O. These guys are getting older and they might eventually lose patience for seeing you live. Heaven forbid they actually find something that might be more important or more dependable live such as an Ohio State football game, another Saw movie or a UFC fight.<br /><br />Oh yeah, please quit firing every other member of the patchwork band you'll manage to assemble for this album. Just because one of the <a href="http://www.turnituporturnitoff.com/Stuff/Allshows/Pics2002/20020716/Roadie.jpg">roadies</a> from the last Meatloaf tour is way down on the list of your choices for guitarists, he might actually be able to pull it off. You can't be pissed off because he's actually relishing his 30 seconds in the spotlight during his guitar solo, so cut him slack.<br /><br />Lastly, quit talking shit about other bands. Sure, the Eagles of Death Metal maybe aren't the most impressive band. Maybe they're not on par with Nirvana or the Misfits. But let's get one thing straight here: you're old, bro.

It was hard to get fired despite any degree of incompetence, especially in Atlanta. Don't believe me? <a href="http://www.ajc.com/metro/content/metro/atlanta/stories/2008/08/13/911_operator_history.html">Read this article</a> sometime about the work ethic of many of Atlanta's government employees. That's right; 911 operators sleeping on the job, getting tons of warnings, making life threatening errors and still keeping a job. All you get is a warning and you're back at work that same. Suspensions? Oh no, not in Atlanta. See, nearly everyone with any sense will appeal a suspension and they will be back on the job immediately with backpay for the missing days.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">But even yours truly has had his run in with the high standards of Atlanta government workers. Yes, I was a government worker in the Atlanta area but thank all that is holy I am no longer working there.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">One afternoon, my friend KG and I decided to hit Quizno's for lunch. Being payday, all the malcontents were out and about with your truly being no exception. Sure I was a malcontent, but let's get back to the story lest I digress. Anyhow, in the middle of my Quizno's classic, I notice what appears to be a <a href="http://corroboratory.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/ghetto-fabulous3.jpg">ghetto-ass broke down version of Lil' Kim</a>. <a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=ghettofabulous">Ghettofabulous</a> in all of her glory. Extensions, tatoo on the neck, gold tooth, corn chip finger nails and airbrushed toe nails. It gets worse though. She was wearing a half-shirt top that made her look as if she was trying to smuggle an inner-tube back into the office. To top it off, she was wearing a mini-skirt that was so short I determine her religion. The kicker, though, was a tatoo across her thigh in olde English font with someone's name.<br /><br />Plus, she was bemoaning the fact that one of her supervisors at work had told her the skirt was too short!! I mean, imagine the gall of a manager to tell his employee that she wasn't dressed appropriately for an office environment. Super short mini-skirts are the new Brooks Brothers look after all.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">However as disturbing as this was, KG summarily informed that this girl was the receptionist at the IT department in a nearby government building. So this woman was the face of her department. In other words, when you walk into the particular IT department's reception area, she is the one to greet you!!<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Guess what day this happened on? Yep, Friday. This girl definitely ruined casual Friday for her office.<br /></div>Cincysundevilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14213545857413956977noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697922.post-91790157782486533752008-10-23T18:51:00.007-05:002008-10-24T09:50:20.406-05:00A Simple Plea For Americans<div style="text-align: justify;">One of the many blogs I still peruse from time to time posted this video below. I had a hard time figuring out how to put into words the feelings that swell up inside of me when I see it. Right now, we're so divided into blue and red, rich and poor, liberal and conservative, black and white, us and them. I know I give in to those emotions too easily for that very reason: it's easy.<br /><br />But even the Devil has a heart and some sensitivity. See, in this time of increasing bitterness as the political season comes to an end, it's a shame that we don't focus on the things that unite us rather than divide us. This video drives home that point more than just about anything I've seen lately. Joy is universal. Laughter is human. Silliness is something we all enjoy.<br /><br />SO my simple plea for Americans is this. Go out and travel the world. The world is so much bigger than Ohio or Texas or New York. Meet people from different places in the world and <span style="font-style: italic;">listen to them</span>. I think what you'll find is that they love their children as much as we do. They want social justice and to help the poor as much as we do. They can laugh at a dick and fart joke every bit as hard as we do.<br /><br />Have a beer with a farmer from Mexico and ask him what he wants for his family. Ask that family from Syria or Palestine what they want for their children over a cup of coffee. Break bread with some young people from India or Kenya or Russia or Iran and ask what kind of world they want to see when they have children. Guess what? Fundamentally they'll want the same things. No, they may not necessarily be eyeballing that 47" HD TV, but they want clean water and food. Schools and education for their children would be near the top of their wish list. A safe place to call home. The ability for their children to walk home without worrying about mortars. We want the same damn things.<br /><br />But go out and travel the world; meet some people and share a beer. THEN develop your opinion. If it's the same as before, then great but at least you'll have some perspective. I'll guarantee you though ... you won't be the same and you will learn something.<br /></div><br /><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 15px ! important;" title="Click here to block this object with Adblock Plus" class="abp-objtab-05118457477621089 visible ontop" href="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=1211060&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1"></a><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 15px ! important;" title="Click here to block this object with Adblock Plus" class="abp-objtab-033323955102692693 visible ontop" href="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=1211060&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1"></a><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 15px ! important;" title="Click here to block this object with Adblock Plus" class="abp-objtab-033323955102692693 visible ontop" href="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=1211060&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1"></a><object width="400" height="225"> <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"> <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"> <param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=1211060&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1"> <embed src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=1211060&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="400" height="225"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://vimeo.com/1211060?pg=embed&sec=1211060">Where the Hell is Matt?

No, really it is. The Cincinnati Bengals are 0-7. Read that again please. ZERO wins and SEVEN losses. It's great how the Cincinnati media is always fed up with this happening again and again and again. In fact, the Bengals have had the most most 0 - 6 starts in NFL history; 8 to be exact. That's twice as many as the Arizona Cardinals ... the fucking Cardinals!! They haven't been to a Superbowl but they have exactly 1/2 the 0 - 6 starts as the Bengals.<br /><br />While heads must roll in this situation, the calls are for wrong head to roll. Just like GOP supporters are condemning Obama for an association with Ayers whose crime was committed when Barack's age was in single digits, Bungles fans are calling for the head of coach Marvin Lewis. This is akin to the whole "liberal" media argument that pinheads always scream about. While the majority of newscasters themselves might be liberal, the majority of editors who decide the actual content are overwhelmingly conservative.<br /><br />Don't get me wrong; I've seen this team play. There is plenty of blame to go around. But blaming it all solely on Lewis is like blaming that damn Katie Couric for making Palin look unintelligent. You can only work with what you're given (in Palin's case ... that isn't much). Blaming Lewis for this team is like blaming Obama for passing the bailout bill. He's just one small cog in the whole wheel in a series of gears.<br /><br />No folks; the real blame here actually lies at the top. It's the team owner, Mike Brown. See, he's never hired a real General Manager and refuses to pay for one. He thinks because his father was the late, great Paul Brown that he's somehow genetically inclined to be some sort of football guru. Nothing could be further from the truth. Under his watch, this team has fallen apart even though it wasn't much of a team to begin with. No Bengals fans, the sad truth is one thing. Until Mike Brown either sells the team or relinquishes control, 0-7 starts will be the rule rather than the exception.Cincysundevilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14213545857413956977noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697922.post-56806252565742948512008-10-19T11:55:00.008-05:002008-10-21T16:50:15.003-05:00Holy Shit It's Christmas ...

I was at an unnamed drugstore the other day and they've already got the Christmas shit up. What the fuck? It's not even Halloween. So along with candy corn, go ahead and pick up a can of that toxic fake-snow shit that pollutes windows in the deep South where there is no snow.<br /><br />Whose fault is this? Whose grand idea is it to start making poor parents feel like shit for not being able to provide ungrateful demon spawn with that new sportscar just like that cunt from some bullshit staged "reality" show on MTV? Whose fault is it anytime we're glutted with cheap shit from China or repeated violations of worker's rights? Yep, it's the fucking evil empire .... <a href="http://www.twice.com/index.asp?layout=blog&blog_id=170000217&blog_post_id=40034204">Wal-Mart</a>.<br /><br />Apparently what I saw is in response to the hordes of cheaply made shit the evil empire is flooding the American market with. After all, what encompasses the spirit of Christmas more than spending money you don't have at a retailer whose labor violations record is longer than the list of excuses the GOP has been giving why Palin is qualified to be VP.<br /><br />Truly Christmas is in the heart of that "labor" force in China working 14 hour days, 6 days a week. God bless us all, each and every one of us ... except those of you who don't subscribe to the right religion or political bent .... you un-American heathen!!Cincysundevilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14213545857413956977noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697922.post-56743164274766587482008-10-18T16:33:00.006-05:002008-10-18T17:33:33.107-05:00Just Die With Some Fucking Dignity<a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 15px ! important;" title="Click here to block this object with Adblock Plus" class="abp-objtab-07881862944965272 visible" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/TPpCqe340fw&hl=en&fs=1"></a><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 15px ! important;" title="Click here to block this object with Adblock Plus" class="abp-objtab-07881862944965272 visible" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/TPpCqe340fw&hl=en&fs=1"></a><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/TPpCqe340fw&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/TPpCqe340fw&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>There's something to be said about acting your age. We all know some relative or close acquaintance that is convinced he or she is still in their 20's. To paraphrase George Lopez, at one time they may have been hot. That was then, this is now.<br /><br />So why in God's name are we trying to convince the baby boomers that they can still act cool? Seriously, so you're going to have Social Security and get to live on golf courses while my generation will be saddled with so much debt we'll be giving prison blowjobs for some ramen. So you'll have Medicare and Medicaid for your Viagra while I'll be forced to take trips south of the border hoping that Spanish fly is still for sale. Please quit trying to convince this generation that they're still cool and vibrant.<br /><br />OK, I get it that you were hippies. Sure, I understand that your saw the Stones back in '69. Yeah, I get it that you once owned a Harley and drank Canadian Club whiskey.<br /><br />But you also brought the leisure suit. You also gave us Brut cologne. And of course, you gave us the <a href="http://images.teamsugar.com/files/upl0/0/88/12_2008/ob.jpg">porn stache</a>. But advertisers in the quest to always hock something have created a niche catering to this generation.<br /><br />The worst is this Touch of Gray commercial with the old geezers surfing and "rocking out" on stage like they're in a bizarro world version of an A&F commercial. They show an old guy and his equally old wife on stage at a "club". His wife kisses him and he's one moment away from his dentures falling out. One geezer takes it to the rim against some younger guys with the coordination of a sorority girl at a fraternity kegger.<br /><br />But to quote Grandpa Simpson, I'm tired of seeing commercials with these active seniors. Let's see a real commercial. Show me the old woman at Kroger who can't figure out how a self-scanning checkout works. Show me the old man who still can't figure out how to make a call on a cell phone. Show me the old couple who are watching 4 channels on their TV because they can't fathom the idea of using their cable box. Show me the old man walking during the summer with black dress socks in sandals.<br /><br />Look, we're all going to get older. Hell, I'm old as dirt now. But that doesn't mean that I have to wear socks and sandals. I won't be tucking in t-shirts into my shorts. I'm not going to wear those suspenders that hold up socks. I'll just act dignified and quit trying to act like I'm in Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. In fact, I'll be like the old man in this clip!! <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wkhBfgrMfMM&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/wkhBfgrMfMM&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>Cincysundevilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14213545857413956977noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697922.post-55089172092175261672008-10-17T10:01:00.010-05:002008-10-17T11:30:03.752-05:00It's All Joe Six Pack's Fault!!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/SPi47NDVJbI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/nUbXViNxBdM/s1600-h/Joe6Pack.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/SPi47NDVJbI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/nUbXViNxBdM/s320/Joe6Pack.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5258155892210476466" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">I know, I haven't blogged in years.

The guy who actually enjoys watching Antique Roadshow (shudder). The Devil is even in a great relationship with an amazing woman who is way too hot for him.

I just can't even begin to put this into words!</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Let me say this up front. I'm a blue collar sort of guy. Seriously, I am. I grew up with parents who worked blue collar jobs for a living. Neither of them went to college but they understood the value of hard work. They had to stretch every red cent to get the most of it. They enjoy a cold beer on the back patio as much as anyone. So if anyone understands blue collar, it is none other than the Devil, my friends.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">With that being said, please spare me this Joe Six Pack bullshit of "I want a president who can sit down and have a beer with me". Really?? So let me get this straight ... you (being the proverbial Joe Six Pack - Palin bonehead supporter) want the leader of the free world to stop in at the double-wide and drink a Miller Hi-Life with you?? So because Jasper knows how to skin a buck in the field means he's able to cope with the complexities of the world's economic markets? That is your criteria for a president???</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">I'll be the asshole once again and say it: I want a president whose intelligence makes me look like W. I want someone who might be more concerned about the situation in Myanmar rather than whether the mountains turned blue on a can of Coors Light. Give me a president who understands the subleties of international diplomacy rather than the intricacies of flip cup. Regional corn-hole champ does not a good president make!!</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Frankly, this is why America is in the mess it's in. We keep up this bullshit that we want someone just like us. We have this complex when someone is more intelligent. We can't stand it when someone grasps a better command of the English language beyond what Cooter speaks down at the "guh-rage".</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">So when that family down the street saves their money wisely and buys a larger home or even a new LCD TV, we sign onto a shady loan so that we can have something a little bit bigger:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Joe Six Pack: "What?

They even saved enough to buy one of them there Blue Rays too!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Joe Six Pack: "Well honey, we need to pull some money out of the house so we can buy a 87" LCD the size of a wall with surrond sound because we "deserve" it.

Growing up, we had the Mavericks, the Lakers, the Rockets, and the Spurs (the Nuggets didn't count). The Mavericks flat out sucked and that coupled with my hate of the Dallas Cowboys rendered them useless. The Rockets were just there. And the Lakers, well, I've blogged about my distaste for them.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">The Spurs had the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Gervin">Iceman, George Gervin</a>. I loved David Robinson. The Twin Towers. They are very blue collar. They're just quiet and play. They're not flashy. They just win and act like they've been there a million times before so that it's no big deal. </span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">With that, congrats San Antonio.

I was a young 22 year old in the Army who somehow didn't fit the Army mold. In my off-duty hours, I wore Doc Martens, plaid flat caps, listened to reggae and ska. I was engaged and together we were that young activist couple. We helped out in the Tampa AIDS Network</span><span style="text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">;</span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"> we were involved in the </span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://www.antiracistaction.us/pn/">Anti-Racist Action</a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"> group; we got out to help push the vote for Clinton.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">As it is now, music was a huge part of my life. We'd spend Saturdays at independent used CD stores eschewing the corporate label stores that insisted on selling like 20 artists and then jacking up the prices for any artist on a label that wasn't mainstream. To this day, I feel sorta like one of those old hippies that laments about when music meant something ... but I'm just as full of shit as now as they were then (are you telling me there was some deep philosophical message in "Purple Haze" that was lost somehow when "Smells Like Teen Spirit" was released?)</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">However, the death of Curt Cobain was one of those moments when you realized that an entire genre of music had just died. A part of your life was gone never to come back except as nostalgia. </span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Now, his crazy wife is selling off all of his shit in order to cover her drug debts and jeopardizing what's left of Curt on this earth: Frances Bean. Look at this kid!! Who can't see Curt in those eyes. Freaky, right?? It's as if one last little piece of my younger, crazier days is all grown up and staring right back at me. </span>Cincysundevilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14213545857413956977noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697922.post-31369746773257835972007-05-03T19:52:00.000-05:002007-05-03T19:59:44.454-05:00I'm a Nationally Published Author!!!<a href="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/stewart_mandel/05/02/cfb.mailbag/index.html"></a><!--endclickprintexclude--><table align="right" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="300"><tbody><tr><td width="10"><img src="http://i.cnn.net/si/images/1.gif" alt="" border="0" height="1" hspace="0" vspace="0" width="10" /></td><td class="cnnImgAdPad" width="100%"><div> <div><img src="http://i.a.cnn.net/si/2007/writers/stewart_mandel/05/02/cfb.mailbag/t1_erickson.jpg" alt="New Arizona State coach Dennis Erickson inherits a talented group of players led by quarterback Rudy Carpenter (12)." border="0" height="384" hspace="0" vspace="0" width="300" /> </div><div class="cnnStoryImage"><div class="cnnImgCaption">New Arizona State coach Dennis Erickson inherits a talented group of players led by quarterback Rudy Carpenter (12).</div><div class="cnnImgCredit">Mike Moore/WireImage.com</div></div></div></td></tr><tr><td width="10"><img src="http://i.cnn.net/si/images/1.gif" alt="" border="0" height="1" hspace="0" vspace="0" width="10" /></td><td width="100%"><!--startclickprintexclude--><table class="cnnIEbox" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr valign="middle"><td class="cnnIEtitleSq" width="22"><img src="http://i.cnn.net/si/images/1.gif" alt="" border="0" height="22" hspace="0" vspace="0" width="22" /></td><td class="cnnIEtitle" width="99%"><strong>MAILBAG</strong></td></tr><tr><td colspan="2" class="cnnIEcontent"><table class="cnnMailbag" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tbody><tr valign="top"> <td class="cnnLeft"> <div><img src="http://i.a.cnn.net/si/.element/img/2.0/story/ie/mailbag_graphic.gif" alt="" style="margin-bottom: 4px;" border="0" height="50" hspace="0" vspace="0" width="79" /></div> <div><b>Submit a question or an opinion to Stewart.</b></div> </td> <td class="cnnRight" width="100%"> <form class="cnnMailbag" action="http://dynamic.si.cnn.com/feedback/stewart_mandel.jsp" method="post"> <input name="mailsubject" value="Mailbag: Stewart Mandel" type="hidden"> <input name="redirect" value="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/email/mailbagthanks.html" type="hidden"> <div>Your name:<br /><input class="cnnField" name="name" type="text"></div> <div>Your e-mail address:<br /><input class="cnnField" name="from" type="text"></div> <div>Your home town:<br /><input name="subject1" value="Hometown" type="hidden"><input class="cnnField" name="response1" type="text"></div> <div>Enter your question:<br /><input name="subject2" value="Question" type="hidden"><textarea rows="3" name="response2" wrap="physical"></textarea></div> <div style="padding-bottom: 0px;" align="center"><input value="SEND" class="cnnFormButton" type="submit"></div> </form> </td> </tr> </tbody></table> </td></tr></tbody></table><!--endclickprintexclude--></td></tr><tr><td width="10"><br /></td><td class="cnnImgAdPad"><br /></td></tr> <tr><td width="10"><img src="http://i.cnn.net/si/images/1.gif" alt="" border="0" height="1" hspace="0" vspace="0" width="10" /></td><td class="cnnStoryCLpad"><script>if(cnnEnableCL){if(!(location.hostname.indexOf('cnn.com')>-1)) {cnnAddCSI('contextualLinks','/.element/ssi/misc/2.0/contextual/story.html','');}else{ cnnAddCSI('contextualLinks','http://cl.cnn.com/ctxtlink/jsp/si/cl/2.0/si-story.jsp','category=sihome&url=http:/\/robots.cnnsi.com/2007/writers/stewart_mandel/05/02/cfb.mailbag/index.html&desccharcnt=80&site=cnn_si_dyn_ctxt&origin=si');}}</script><iframe src="http://cl.cnn.com/ctxtlink/jsp/si/cl/2.0/si-story.jsp?domId=contextualLinks&time=1178239973625&category=sihome&url=http://robots.cnnsi.com/2007/writers/stewart_mandel/05/02/cfb.mailbag/index.html&desccharcnt=80&site=cnn_si_dyn_ctxt&origin=si" name="iframecontextualLinks" id="iframecontextualLinks" style="position: absolute; visibility: hidden; display: none;" align="right" height="0" width="0"></iframe><br /></td></tr></tbody></table> <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Well, sorta .... I had my first question answered in a national publication ... well, not really published ... well, published on the web ... well anyways ... here is my first question ever answered on the national stage!! Journalism school here I come!!!</span><br /><br /><p><b>As an Arizona State alum, I was one of those calling for the head of Dirk Koetter. Stewart, you even called him <a href="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/writers/stewart_mandel/10/11/oct11.cfb.mailbag/index.html">one of the worst coaches in college football</a>. So Arizona State goes out and hires a proven coach in Dennis Erickson. What is it about his hiring that has left Sun Devils fans with a sense of apprehension?<br /></b><i>--D. Padilla, Atlanta</i></p> <p>I have to admit, I did not realize there was apprehension there. If so, I can only assume it's apprehension over the fact ASU's program is about to be overrun with a band of jucos, and that there's a 50-50 chance the school will wind up on probation. From a football standpoint, however, Sun Devils fans should be thrilled. Erickson may not be big on "character guys," but he's big on winning, and he's going to do a lot of it there in a short amount of time. The cupboard in Tempe is not exactly bare. Any coach would be lucky to walk into a program with a quarterback like <b>Rudy Carpenter</b> (whose confidence should be restored by Erickson), a running back like <b>Ryan Torain</b>, three all-conference offensive linemen and some decent defensive linemen.</p> <p>While Erickson, like Koetter, is known as an offensive mind, the difference is, he actually knows what he's doing. Koetter had never been a head coach at a BCS-level school and it showed, as he constantly botched key decisions (like last year's Carpenter-<b>Sam Keller</b> debacle) and stubbornly stuck to a WAC-style offense in a league that actually plays some defense. Erickson comes in with far more experience, a proven track record both with Miami and in the Pac-10 with Washington State and Oregon State. He'll have ASU competing at a high level in no time -- and leading the league in personal-foul penalties.</p>Cincysundevilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14213545857413956977noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697922.post-82300786185194620072007-04-29T11:53:00.000-05:002007-04-29T12:00:28.813-05:00My Newest Addiction<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">I found this program while looking around MySpace ......

I mean, we're only like 16 games into the baseball season which seems to go on and on and on and on. Hell, it might be snowing by the time the Series starts. Look at these Reds fans in the pic ... I swear, it's as if the dead are the only baseball fans.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Football season is an ungodly amount of time away from starting.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Hockey season is winding down. The Lightning are down 3 to 1 in the second period in an elimination game with Martin Brodeur absolutely on fire.

It doesn't translate well.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">As a kid, I used to look forward to summer. It meant no school and playing all day. As an adult, it means getting dressed up for work, sweating like a virgin on prom night, and no sports.

No parent should outlive their child; there are few tragedies in this world that are greater than that.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Next, NBC is being condemned for giving that ass nugget exactly what he wanted by airing the tape of his rant. I agree that this fucknut shouldn't have been given any more airtime. The fact that 32 college students died is more than enough publicity. Yes, he was bullied. What this moron failed to realize is that there are more who are bullied than bullies. In the long run, geeks take over the world.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">What is not being talked about in all of this Va Tech tragedy is the gun issue. Don't get me wrong: I love guns. I grew up shooting. At age 11, my old man and his friends took all of us kids out to a shooting range to teach us gun safety. I know that more people are killed every year by unloaded weapons that loaded guns. I know that you never put a loaded weapon in a car. I know that you keep the bullets in a separate location from the gun. I was a pretty damn good shot in the Army. Unfortunately, not everyone gets the same lessons.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Anti-Christ party candidate Mike Huckabee made comments that if people had been allowed to carry guns on campus, the tragedy might have been avoided. There was even a campus NRA group claiming the same thing.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">What is lost on these braindead Nazis is that blaming gun laws for not stopping the tragedy is like blaming ants in a dirty house with food left out. Let's turn to the ant analogy. If you let people carry fly swatters in a dirty house, they might be able to swat a few ants. Why not just clean the fucking house? In other words, why not just make getting a gun next to impossible and pretty much hang anyone who commits a crime with a gun?? Instead, the GOP logic is to say that if we allowed more people to carry guns, this tragedy would've been averted. Instead of cleaning the house to stop ants from coming into the house in the first place, we'll just give more people fly swatters to kill ants.</span><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/RiutexIcTWI/AAAAAAAAAOg/YLmyHQwpEuI/s1600-h/4_sep_HuntingDeer.gif"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/RiutexIcTWI/AAAAAAAAAOg/YLmyHQwpEuI/s320/4_sep_HuntingDeer.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5056325750749941090" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">And of course, there is always the 2nd Amendment. Yeah, I know it's a Constitutional right. But under the Anti-Christ's regime, the Constitution is just a "God-damned piece of paper." If you can limit Free Speech through Copyright and sedition laws (trust me, the White House is still trying to get these passed), then you can certainly limit the right to bear arms. Of course, politicians will cry and pass some more laws that provide no additional money to local law enforcement to enforce the new law and the old laws.<br /><br />Mark my words, what we'll see once the furor of this tragedy dies down are more news reports about little old ladies or convenience store clerks who fought off a would be robber with a gun. Of course, no one will ask where the robber got the gun in the first place ........<br /></span>Cincysundevilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14213545857413956977noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697922.post-24951069506056662892007-04-16T12:04:00.000-05:002007-04-18T10:38:05.046-05:00You Brits Have It Too Good<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/RiG3kNp0ZbI/AAAAAAAAAOA/dxohlHkm7h8/s1600-h/LIlly.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_qhlQioJMj6Q/RiG3kNp0ZbI/AAAAAAAAAOA/dxohlHkm7h8/s320/LIlly.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5053522089654642098" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Do know how I know you're gay?

But don't hold that against me. I recently got a lateral promotion at work: more exciting work but a higher workload.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">So here is my weekly Top 5!!</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"><br /><u>Top 5 Women Who Need the Devil</u></span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">5. </span><a style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004851/">Penelope Cruz</a><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">: </span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Sure, she's an all-time fave, but that doesn't mean her taste in men has gotten any better. How do you go from crazy (Tom Cruise) to smelly (Matthew McConaughey) to greasy (Josh Hartnett)? She needs a steady dull guy like yours truly!!!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">4. Liz Phair:</span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"> She is </span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://www.celebritycrunch.com/art/liz-phair.jpg">the hottest MILF</a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"> in the universe. She's close to my age and is single. Plus, how many women her age look </span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://www.stereogum.com/img/lizphair_nsfw2.jpg">this good</a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"> or</span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://www.stereogum.com/img/lizphair_nsfw1.jpg"> like this</a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">? Besides, if she can write songs like "Fuck and Run" or "HWC (Hot White Cum)", she is going to be Mrs. Devil.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">3. </span><a style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0159776/">Erika Christensen</a><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">:</span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"> Hot and curvy in all the right places. She needs a career boost. What better than for her to be seen with me on the beach. Can't you just see the Star headlines? "Hottie and Fattie on the beach" or "Beauty and the Beached ...as in Whale".</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">2. </span><a style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000213/">Winona Ryder</a><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">:</span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"> Cute and a huge rack to boot? I can die now ... but not 'til I pry her from the greasy fingers of every rock star she's dated. Much as I liked Soul Asylum, but Dave Pirner? He's like a Joe Dirt movie come to life!!! She was with Johnny Depp when he thought he was a rock star!! She digs the music boys.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">1. Scarlett Johansson:</span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"> Lately, she's been linked to Justin Timberlake. Some might think he brought sexy back, but let's face it. He's the next falsetto Corey Feldman wannabe. Need proof? </span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://www.celebritydetective.com/images/justin-hat.jpg">Look at this picture of the ass-clown: notice the hat</a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">. Now look at this pic of a </span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://film.onet.pl/_i/plotki/duze/c/corey_feldman_1.jpg">bloated, drug addicted child star</a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">. Do I need to say more?

If you ever want to know what is coming out that is going to be absolutely awesome, check in with him. He is the man with his finger on the pulse of new music. </span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Anyways, I come across a tune by Mickey Avalon called "Jane Fonda". The chorus is essentially "do the Jane Fonda". Being a product of the 80's, I'm thinking this is a reference to the aerobics workout tapes. Apparently not. A quick check of </span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=jane+fonda">Urban Dictionary reveals it is a reference to threesomes</a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">. The sad thing is I had no fucking idea!!!</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">I think I was ready to weep like a child when Old Yeller died. I just saw my last semblance of hipness die right in front of my eyes ... or in my earbuds, I should say! I'm ready for the suburbs I guess. I'll start shopping at Kohls for Dockers, I'll buy Nickelback and Black Eyed Peas CDs so I can act like I'm hip still, and I'll spend Saturdays at Home Depot buying lawn furniture. </span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Plus, I will win Lindsay's heart by wearing those sexy black socks with sandals. </span>Cincysundevilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14213545857413956977noreply@blogger.com13
