Yo Oklahoma. How about this? YO-Klahoma. That’s a good one. Maybe I could open a breakfast only restaurant and call it Yolk-lahoma. Here’s another idea. Maybe I should stop being stupid and get on with being a dork again. Yippie!

Comicfest is coming along perfectly. We are shooting the picture for the poster this weekend. It is amazing how smoothly everything is going this year. I think it is because the most negative element of last year is not a problem this year. It is truly a great thing. What negative element you ask? Let’s just refer to him as he whose name shall not be spoken. That’s right. Star of Renegade, Lorenzo Llamas. That loser.

So someone left a comment about how I would probably not find ‘the one’ at a bar. I need to make sure that people understand I’m not a bar guy. I’ve never been under the impression I would find a girlfriend at a bar. I’m not saying it couldn’t happen but I just don’t think it’s likely.
Let’s take that one step further. The likelihood of me finding a girl patient enough to tolerate the hilarity that is dating me, is not good. I’m just saying is all.

This is just something I had to put out there in the event this person I saw walking around downtown today might stumble upon this festival de humor. If you are a straight man over forty and not a thirteen year old girl or a gay man, please don’t wear a t-shirt with Britney Spears on it. Please. You might not know it but you’ve crossed that invisible line that lies between guy in a t-shirt and guy people are afraid to let their children near. For the good of society please don’t wear that shirt again.

I promised pictures and I’ll give you pictures. I also promised to give all my money to an organization that charged me eight bucks for a bumper sticker that says ‘I Love My Wife’. I don’t even have a wife. Those Promise Keepers sure are crafty. On with the visuals!

I like this picture a lot. I also like reruns of Save by the Bell and “CHiPs”. That’s right. I’m smooth.


Just a note about this picture. Not but two minutes before I took this there was some woman making her thirteen year old granddaughter smile while she posed for a picture. Ok. I get taking a picture of the memorial. I get taking a picture of your granddaughter. I don’t get taking a picture of your granddaughter at the memorial for the worst tragedy this state has ever seen. Exercising decorum isn’t such a bad thing.


Here is a picture of the building next to the one I work in. That’s all. No funny quips or witty sayings. It’s a building. That’s it. You don’t have to laugh ALL the time y’know. Ok. Sure you do. I feel bad so here is what no one has been waiting for. A picture of me. Now all the person that reads this can put a face with a blog. Here you go.

What lady could pass up a smoove looking dude like that? Ok. So it’s not me. I’m nowhere near as cool as that dude. Someday I’ll be brave enough to stop hiding behind my words and quips. Someday.

RIGHT NOW

SONG - Cry Me A River by Justin Timberlake. What? We can’t all have good taste in all things all the time. Ok. Here’s one to redeem me. Better Together by Jack Johnson. I will meet a girl someday and I will put that song on a mix CD for her and whenever she hears it she’ll smile because there is someone out there who has a better life because of her. Until that happens, Timberlake it is.

MOVIE - Airplane. One of the greatest comedies of all time.
“Do you like movies with gladiators?”

STUPIDEST MANAGEMENT THING I HEARD TODAY - “I need you to step up to the plate because I need all hands on deck.” Moron.

So that’s it for now people. Have a wonderful day or night or whatever. If you’re reading this at work remember that you are more than likely better than what you do and deserve to be treated better. Don’t stay where you are. If you aren’t better than where you work just be glad you have that sweet president job.

Happy Birthday A-Rod.
