imperial at-at stroller

if you don’t know what an at-at is, don’t bother reading further. i promise it’s a waste of your time.

in some social circles, this stroller would get your kid some serious props. in other circles, he would get stuffed in a garbage or get an indian burn.

long weekend links

i took a couple days off next week so i don’t have to work till next thursday. i hope to not accomplish much since it’s been hectic the last couple weeks.

also, i use google analytics to review stats on the website – it helps me count the 3 visitors who actually come here to read the stories. one of the sections shows what keywords people searched for in google that ended up at my site. here’s the top 10 phrases as measured by google:

  1. evan o’dorney
  2. elliot yamin
  3. evan o’dorney pitch
  4. bruce bowen dirty player
  5. jatbar
  6. kate beckinsale’s feet
  7. “white girls and gang signs”
  8. make your own southpark character
  9. how to sell crystal meth
  10. make a southpark character

item 6 & item 9 are my favorites – item 9 especially. if you go to google and search for “how to sell crystal meth”, my site comes in at #3 [click here to do this in google]. it’s purely by mistake/chance but i know some people pay big money to be right at the top of a google search. i just like the fact that 3 people actually searched for how to sell devil’s dust on google. what’s next a wikipedia article?

solution for slow police response

unless someone has a gun, you’re not likely to see any city cops racing to your house when you have a disturbance outside or someone growing huge amounts of pot across the street. the guy in the article could have very well been my dad, considering how his logic works:

finally…a nice relaxing weekend

was on call for the first part of the weekend but got out of the house enough to enjoy the excellent weather. went up to ed levin park with marcos and hiked around till he got tired and wanted me to hold him.

and, of course, trying to pick up rocks to throw in the water:

and after 100 practice jumps a day, his vertical leap is now about the same as mine these days:

this week there’s not much coming up but might get a chance to hit the padres-giants game on tuesday night.

playground links

remember “at the playground” by another bad creation? what a disaster that turned out to be, considering they were produced by bell biv devoe. i wouldn’t be surprised to see them on an upcoming “dancing with the stars” episode. here’s some stuff to get you lubed up for the weekend.

i’ve gained 50 lbs since high school

so has phammy, so i don’t feel so bad. i still don’t mind walking around with my shirt off in public. i could stand to lose 10-20 pounds but i’m not stressin just yet. a couple of the guys below have no business having their shirts off:

look at that guy on the right. he would get beat up and/or fondled in almost every locker room arond the country flaunting those b-cups. who needs a girlfriend with a set like those.

monday nights suck

mostly from the altered sleep hours that i accumulate over the weekend. i was invited to play basketball in mountain view tonight as a guest of jon foster from work. we all arrived at the designated time and i guess the court was not open because they were getting it ready for an upcoming graduation ceremony. the unsettled question of who is the best basketball player at atempo will remain for one additional week. i met a couple of the guys and i think it’s going to be a good weekly run.

i am colorblind

if alyssa said she wanted to go out with a black guy, or red guy, or yellow guy, then i’m all for it, as long as he treats her well. it would be neat to hang out with some interesting people of other cultures to hear their sides of stories. my only requirement for skin color is that he does not mess up the exposure of our group pictures. in some cases, it just doesn’t work out well.

top 10 picture of all time

i was going to try and avoid the entire paris hilton thing altogether since the entire country seems to be consumed with this trashy whore, but this picture of her being escorted back to jail is just too good to pass up.

high school dances suck

so ozzie decided he would dig up our senior prom pictures, being the nice guy that he is. i don’t think anyone was particularly thrilled that night, maybe except for vince because it was the beginning of his night rather than the end. someday i’ll post that pic here. in the meantime, feast your eyes on this picture from some midwestern town’s winter dance. giddyap!

if only chetty grew up in the midwest instead of the big city, he might be in a picture like this. instead, he takes pictures with movie stars in hollywood while wearing surplus military clothes.

wow…friday already

as you may have noticed, i’ve been busy at home and work so not much going on in blogsville. i felt guilty that my three readers keep visiting the site looking some new posts and instead they get to stare at nothing. the following sites should buy me a little bit of time till i find the energy to write again:
