This guy Bryce on Chuck sort of looks like Cole. Less godlike, though.

Have to get more done before Thanksgiving morning so I can check it out.


I DVR'd the Macy's parade on not 1 but 2 channels this year... IN HD NO LESS!!! my brother in law and his wife were handlers for one of the balloons and they asked me to record it for them to see if they could find themselves. They were almost on TV, but Al Roker's massive cranium obscured them.


You tell a story like that and don't even tell what balloon? I didn't even see the parade and I've got to know which balloon!

Al Gore was among the 2007 Nobel Prize winners who were invited in for a photo and some chatter with President Bush yesterday; Gore got the recognition for his work on global warming.

Al Gore is also a best-selling author and Academy Award winner. He will next star in his own TV show called "Three and a Half Men."

Whenever I hear someone say a name ending in "Baker," I always think in my head, "The touchdown maker." For example, I had to go to the airport today (there were hot women everywhere!) and the announcer said over the PA "Michael Baker," which made me say in my head "The touchdown maker." Fortunately, I rarely say it out loud.

On a similar note, whenever I hear someone say Mentos I think, "The Fresh Maker". Especially their whimsical commercials and remember the Foo Fighters spoof music video, lol, so cutting edge

Here is an odd one:

I called out yesterday, and I'm sitting in my skivvies playing Xbox, when I hear someone trying to use a key on my door. I get up, run to the door, and open it. It's a guy who lived in my last building, with 100 keys in his hand. I have the same landlord at the place I live in now that I did as that last building.

Anyway, he says "I'm helping the landlord out. He wants to see what spare keys he has. I'm going to Africa next week". Really odd choice of words, and he wasn't acting like himself. So, he just said that he's trying to help out my landlord who got a new assistant recently.

Anyway, that seems shady, but even if it isn't, it seems weird he can just come over without telling me and walk in the door. WHAT THE FRIG

You'll probably want to kill that guy, just to be safe.

This guy is odd as hell. Not necesarily odd in a "I'm shady and take things way", but odd in a "I'm shady as hell, but it usually turns out I'm just weird" way.

He came over once b/c a weed transaction went wrong, and he got punched in the face and couldn't get into his apartment

My day started by watching a crushed cat wail and die in the street. Good omen!

Sometimes when I walk to work, but this was on Fitzwater. The cat had just gotten hit and for like two minutes just flailed its one arm around and shrieked until it gave up. It was really awful; hope it was a stray.

Based on your post, I guess it was an all-around bad day for cats?
