hey folks. i'm updating early today because i've got a shitload of meetings (2 to 4:30) planned, and i am getting a massage at 5:30.
so kevin covais is out of american idol. that doesn't surprise me, because there was no fucking way that he would win the whole thing. i don't particularly like the way he sings (his vibrato is sort of annoying), and speaking of vibratos, i also don't like the way elliott yamin does his, either. oh well. maybe it's just me.
so the sweet sixteen of the men's NCAA tournament is set for today. i wish i had tickets to the oakland region. UCLA vs. gonzaga is a good matchup, and i plan on watching that game tonight. i'm rooting for UCLA, of course; even though i hate them when they play stanford, they're a pac-10 team, and i root for all of them when they're in the tourney.
so there's news that the stanford tree (our mascot) is banned for the rest of the postseason. the old tree of this year (a girl) was kicked out due to being totally drunk at the cal game. her blood alcohol level was about twice the legal limit. geez, silly tree.
oh, and my cowboys signed mike vanderjagt. i hope that solves our kicking problems. i think the cowboys usually sign some no-name kicker for a minimum wage salary, and they've sucked in the recent past. vanderjagt is one of the best kickers out there, although he's probably most remembered for missing the 46-or-so-yarder at the end of the game in the indianapolis game vs. the steelers this past season.
i wiped my ass three times during today's dump, and i think there was still some shit left. i just got lazy, i guess. i could have wiped more. i'm not fond of wet, sticky shits. i'd rather launch a dry log.
so what's the advance word on the movie _inside man_? it looks interesting. it's got a good cast (denzel, jodie foster, clive owen), and it'd directed by spike lee. i like crime thrillers, so i'm interested in seeing the movie. maybe i'll call up alan and see if he wants to watch it.
i have fantasies these days about joining a masturbation club. i saw a bit on these clubs years ago on hbo's _real sex_ series. it seemed pretty cool, and kind of intimate. although, realistically speaking, i don't know if i can get off by a foreign handjob. i would start sorrying that their hands/forearms would cramp up from taking so damn long to blow my wad. in all things related to sex, i usually get myself off by doing the work myself. if other people do the work, i find it very hard to spunk.
so i'm pretty cross with my company these days. we're supposed to be done with coding, but suddenly, the architect decides that we need to add in this new feature that involves my block. *RAAR* i thought i was done already! and now i have to rush to code up this new thing and make it work? phooey. *pukes*
so while waiting for sportscenter to start, last night i checked out fox's new reality gameshow, _unanimous_. it looked kind of lame, but i was curious to see how it worked. basically, 9 people are sent into an underground bunker, sequestered from society, and they have to unanimously vote to give 1.5 million dollars to someone.
like one of the contestants thought, wouldn't the best way to do this would be to vote for someone and make them promise to split the money evenly? that way everybody wins, and everybody gets to go home. otherwise, why the hell would you vote to give one person the money and get zilch for yourself? seems simple to me.
ok, time to do work. take it easy, folks!
