Booyor's BLOGgh!

Things that disturbed me at today’s staff development:

• Eating a jar of green baby food – peas, perhaps
• Inflating a dissected frog’s lungs with a coffee straw
• Knowing that I have a college degree to do what I do

Things that did not disturb me today:

• Finding McDonald’s left for me by my beautiful wife
• Having a wife who made apple salad with Snickers in it
• Finding Asteroid’s Revenge in my Inbox
• Hearing that my daughter used the bathroom when she needed to today

Here’s the video.

We want to do the challenges in New York! (That and the Pirate is currently unemployed in real life.)

In a sarcastic tone – “Is this a scam?”

Here’s something from my college webmail:

Our criteria has changed, so if you are still interested in obtaining a real BA, BS, or MBA then let us know by Friday. We no longer require class time, and just need to verify your information via phone. Our Knowledge Based (D)egree Program (KBDP) is a legitimate program administered by our University. Since we require no class time you must call our educational consolers to verify your knowledge of the (d)egree of interest.

Our counselors are available 24 hours daily, so just leave a message and they will call you back shortly.

Yes, they did spell “counselors” as people who console. But please don’t call that phone number. Why did I go through this whole masters thing when I could have just proven my knowle(D)ge.

Something that is not a scheme is this whole thing with the post offices. If you still live in a neighborhood where the postal worker comes to the door, you can just leave your outgoing package on the doorstep and they will take it to the distribution center. This should hopefully relieve some post office stress this Christmas.

How much would you pay for a 30 minute concert? Places like Philadelphia, Atlanta, and Washington, D.C. might pay a little bit of money for a sitcom’s-worth of Jay-Z during his “Kingdom Come” tour. (I didn’t know that Jay-Z was a king. I could have sworn that he ran a duchy, but I could be wrong. The boy’s out of retirement.) Jay-Z will be hitting seven cities today while bringing along an entourage of private jets and expensive cars. Contest winners are also being brought along to experience what some inside analysts call I’mTooRichToKnowWhatToDoWithMyself

Concerts will be held in Atlanta, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Las Vegas today. All within a 17 hour timespan. Usually I’m not quite hip-hop (more hop, less hip) but this is just crazy. That and Cingular (which I don’t have) is providing concert coverage on their phones.
So, how much would you be willing to pay for a 30 minute concert?

Maybe not all big-time stars are lazy, but Nickelback is. I’m not a fan of too much new entertainment (Kirby Puckett is still playing for the Twins, right?), but this is funny. Check out this person’s scientific comparison of two Nickelback songs. My mom was right. Rock singers just sing the same thing over and over again. Click here for more details.

This thing is crazy. It is not animated, but it will make you dizzy.
Dare you brave it?

“I can teach Japanese to anyone.”

That’s a skill.

“I’m sweet!”

Amidst all of the awesomeness of Hiro and the bubbling water of Ted, there’s the shadowy guy in the diner and the equals sign on the cop’s neck. (Love Heroes.)

Who do y’all think is Sylar?

NAU beat ASU at basketball:

The young Devils struggled against an experienced Lumberjack team that started three seniors and a junior. NAU is the defending Big Sky Conference regular-season champions.

There was much talking of trash on campus today. It was described as a crushing defeat. You can tell we don’t focus on sports when we describe four points as “crushing”.

I guess that sophisticated people (like the guys from Korn and Incubus and Corn Incubus) enjoy Guitar Hero and the Wall Street Journal.

Michael Einziger, the 30-year-old guitarist for the hard-rock band Incubus, says he was “shocked at how hard it was” to play the videogame’s version of his song “Stellar.” He admits he was handily beaten by his then-14-year-old sister, Ruby Aldridge, when the two of them squared off earlier this year.

That’s funny.

I thought I could get by without y’all having to do math, but then I had 19 spam comments – in one day.
I didn’t understand why the comment said “Brrrghhh yeah”. What, were they from Finland?
