the World Baseball Classic (WBC) is falling apart before it even begins. cuba is finally allowed to play but none of their defectors are allowed to play, arod scratches his pussy about who to play for and now bonds calls it quits. the best international tournament i've seen is on
BaseballProspectus.comspeaking of falling apart, i've been having a hicup at work where i'm arguing with one of my bosses. he's the only non-family guy and i would put money on him having some kind of inappropriate realtationship with
My Hot Boss (soon to be a major motion picture). We've been arguing over this job him and this crazy genius guy who consults have been working on. i drove out to Utica, NY on friday to visit this customer. the guy i'm fighting with thought he was punishing me for screwing up this job. First of all, i covered my ass on this one, i got approvals more then once from everybody and bernie saw this shit twice before it was too late and no one said anything. but i'm proud of my self, i didn't mess up, i gave them exactly what they wanted and now they're changing stuff. not my fault. I'm proud because i'm handleing it well, I'm not getting upset at my boss, i'm simply taking more of it to avoid conflict. i'm doing a better job of handling the situation and covering my own ass at the same time. it simply doesn't help me in any way to pick a fight here. i'd rather not start something that could cost me my job and this really isn't worth fight over. i think i'm growing. it gets scary. i'm eating better and working out. i eat the salad bar at stop n' shop in north haven and i joinedthe YMCA on tuesday. i went three days in a row before i had to miss friday and the weekend. tino fed me some wings last night that made my day a little less enjoyable and caused me to just pass today. tino, that fucking glaze passed through me completely. it was messy and loud.
on another topic, one of the guys in the shop kind of noticed i was stressed out today and said something that was so inappropriate that i just lost track of whatever was one my mind at the time and smiled. turned my day around, but it never should have been said in anysort of professional environment. ever.
i'm missing one of the classic-gaming-super-fun-pack-christmas-present boxes i got off of ebay and i'm not sure what to do, the guy says he shipped it, i never got it. the post office can't do anything can they? what ever shipping company he claims he shipped it from should have a record, if he did send it there should be a paper trail. if someone just swipped it when it was left outside my door ( a real possibility) then what happens? is it hte shippers responsibility? did i just loose $11.00 for a
sega menecer light gun?the scotch bills just keep adding up. up and away, there's a new superman movie coming out, should be like the death of a thousand sons of the atom, up, it equals 7 plus the square root of glenliviet, thats tonights scotch of the week. i've been drinking nicer/fancy/older/smoother scotches lately as a treat to myself. Because i can. of tuna, tuna on rye whiskey, it all comes back to whiskey in the end, it doesn't even matter, i had to fall, to lose it all, the shrimp you can eat at red lobster baskets that we make from 600 club gets you into the hall of fame, goose gossage got robbed of a congestional medla of honor because during his 12 year career he helped fight t he nazi's in panama and emilinated the word "Rubes" from the english language some time in the late 20's during prohibition when the alcohol was expensive and the back room gambling was something to be proud of. thats how superman got published. i read the book about sup's creaters, very interesting about jewish settelers and how the fan letters really did make a difference and how all t hese guys came from the same circle of people and were all interconnected with the mob and bootleggers because it was a form of distribution. they had to, to get the paper during war time and to get an outlet for moving issues of thier comics. creative bastards.
i'd love to say the republican party if falling apart but i'm now going to hold off until we actually win the 2006 election. never under estimate he supidity of the american people. we could fuck this one up too.
On the surface the Republicans look like they are in trouble, but really...
In 2005 the Republican National Committee brought in over $100 million, to the DNC's $51 million. The RNC now enjoys the largest cash-on-hand lead over its counterpart in more then a decade.
So dont think their support is fading, plus what is the Democrats plan? Ya, i dont know either.
what hurts about the democrats is that this administration has given them so much ammunition and done so many bad things, yet they still can't take advantage of it. it was time to play dirty years ago and they still haven't. there needs to be somesort of big push to bring these guys down. not a bunch of pussy crap.
