Insane Random Ramblings

I got my homework done yesterday so I wouldn’t have to worry about it today. I’ll wait until tomorrow to wash clothes. That way I can watch sports all day long. I probably won’t watch the early football game. But I’ll watch the Steelers vs the Eagles at 4:15. Then I’ll watch the Yankees vs the Orioles at 8pm. I guess you know who I’ll be rooting for right?

The only thing I may do early in the day before the games come on is clean the bathroom. My sink, especially the Kohler faucets are kind of spotty. I’ll also mop the floor and clean the mirror. That shouldn’t take long at all.

Then I’ll od on sports for the rest of the day.

I didn’t delete it but I have posted it onto my blog yet. I figure if it’s spam, the person will come back and post a bunch of comments. I felt that if I waited a week or two before publishing it, the person may forget about it and not come back with any comments. As long as they’re not trying to get me to buy diet pills, p0rn or drugs, the comment can stay.

But if they come back and leave any crazy comments, I’ll delete them so fast it will make their head spin.

The top 5 things I plan on doing for school this weekend:

1. Read 5 chapters in my book. This will be hard because the subject matter is pretty dry and boring.
2. Analyze and create a summary for 1 chapter for review in class. Every student has 1 chapter in the book. There are 2 students for each chapter. We create a word document and send it to the prof. who then puts it online.
3. Figure out my budget to pay for next semester. Right now it looks like I’ll be about $600-700 short. At least a budget will bring it closer into focus for me.
4. Check the schedule of classes to see which 2 classes I’ll take next semester.
5. Comment on a online article that the prof. posted to the school bulletin board. It’s kinda required but not really. I need all of the points I can get.

Have a great weekend everyone!

 Elevator Fun  

1. Make race car noises when anyone gets on or off.  

2. Blow your nose and offer to show the contents of your  
   kleenex to other passengers.  

3. Grimace painfully while smacking your forehead and  
   muttering: Shut up, dammit, all of you just shut UP!  

4. Whistle the first seven notes of It’s a Small World  
   incessantly.  

5. Sell Girl Scout cookies.  

6. On a long ride, sway side to side at the natural  
   frequency of the elevator.  

7. Shave.  

8. Crack open your briefcase or purse, and while peering  
   inside ask: Got enough air in there?  

9. Offer name tags to everyone getting on the elevator.  
   Wear yours upside-down.  

10. Stand silent and motionless in the corner, facing the  
    wall, without getting off.  

11. When arriving at your floor, grunt and strain to yank  
    the doors open, then act embarrassed when they open by  
    themselves.  

12. Lean over to another passenger and whisper:  
    Noogie patrol coming!  

13. Greet everyone getting on the elevator with a warm  
    handshake and ask them to call you Admiral.  

14. On the highest floor, hold the door open and demand  
    that it stay open until you hear the penny you dropped  
    down the shaft go plink at the bottom.  

15. Do Tai Chi exercises.  

16. Stare, grinning, at another passenger for a while, and  
    then announce: I’ve got new socks on!  

17. When at least 8 people have boarded, moan from the back:  
    Oh, not now, damn motion sickness!  

18. Give religious tracts to each passenger.  

19. Meow occasionally.  

It’s not for another couple of weeks but I need to start shopping now. I wanted to go in with a couple of people and get a big present like one of those neat strollers that I’ve seen. I saw one for $80.00. No one wants to do that though. I don’t know why, it’s a nice stroller. I love the color and it will hold the baby until he’s over a year. The baby will get a ton of use from it. I don’t know if they want to go cheaper or what. I don’t think that’s too much money split before 3 or 4 people. But that’s just me. I don’t tend to skimp on gifts.

Since I can’t find anyone to do that with me, I’ll just look around and see if they have brand of clothes that she wants. I’ll have to ask her again which one she wants. I think she said Halo but I’m not sure. I’ll confuse her though by asking her about the bedding set that she wants and then switch it to clothes. She’ll be so confused that she’ll just start blurting out answers.

I really want her to be surprised and like her gifts.

Sometimes it’s easy to tell if something is spam. It’s just obvious links to drug sites, p0rn or stuff like that. Other times it’s not so easy to tell though.

I have a innocuous looking comment on my other blog. It has a helpful suggestion as well. The suggestion was something that I’ve been thinking about (but hadn’t verbalized on my blog) for a while. But upon closer inspection, the link was to a email address and the ip address led to domain registrar.

I think the person wants their first comment approved so that they can come back and spam me later. Those subsequent comments would be auto approved on my blog. Unless I’m extra vigilant about looking at my dashboard (which I usually am), the comments would get through.

What do you think? How do you decide which comments to let through and which ones to keep an eye on?

Well at least for me anyway. I used to do taebo a long time ago. Billy has this 21 day challenge where you do the program for 21 days straight. The thing is though, if you miss a day you have to start over. Even if you miss day 20, you begin again.

Now I’m doing walk away the pounds and that’s what my challenge will center around. The bad thing is that I was on day 6 and my cable went out because of storms. Now I have to start over. I’ll probably begin again either tomorrow or Thursday.

I hope to lose the weight through exercise. Instead of looking out for the best diet pills around, I can lose the weight naturally. It will more than likely stay off that way. At least I hope so. Wish me luck!

This no-no was history making for several reasons. It was the first Cubs no-hitter in 36 years. But the big deal was that it was the first no-hitter thrown at a neutral location. Click here to go to ESPN and read the article.

Man I wish I could have seen this game. But I can always go back and watch the highlights. And it might even show up on Sports Classics soon enough.

I don’t get a chance to see many Yankees games. If I still lived in NJ where my mom lives, I would see their games all of the time because she gets a NY channel with her cable company. Here in Pittsburgh, we don’t get any special channels. The only way I get to see the Yankees is if they come on ESPN.

Well yesterday a game was supposed to come on but rain ruined everything. The game was postponed until today when they played a double header. Unfortunately neither game came on tv. The best I can do is watch the highlights on Sports Center tonight.

I haven’t really written about sports lately so today’s topic is: 5 random sports items

1. I wrote a post about Shawne Merriman a week ago. I’m glad to see that he’s having the surgery he needs. I hate to see the Charger’s lose him for the season but that’s better than him having a potentially career-endind injury.
2. I can’t believe the Browns are still talking smack after getting crushed by the Cowboys last week. Sunday night is the Steelers turn to hand them a butt whooping!
3. Tom Brady is lost for the season! He tore his MCL and his ACL. The team will wait for his MCL to heal then he’ll have surgery on the ACL. His expected recovery time is 9 months. Training camp starts in 10 months so he should be good to go for next year.
4. Forbes magazines estimates that the 3 pro football teams worth the most money are: Dallas Cowboys, Washington Redskins, and New England Patriots.
5. You know the Yankees are having a rough go of it when they haven’t shown one of their games on regular tv in almost 3 weeks. Now, I have to turn to my electronics media to see them. Usually there’s a game on once a week. I miss drooling over A-Rod.

Have a great weekend!
