Tasty Beer!

Yesterday evening I had some beers. I decided to splurge on the per diem and I purchased something I had never had before, from somewhere I had never been before. It just so happens that I had Orange Blossom Cream Ale. It was hella good. I wouldn't have figured that an orange flavored beer would be cool but it was. I suggest you all go out and buy some for me. I would like to drink more of it once I get back to VA!

California Dreamin'

I am in sunny Cali for a couple of weeks for work. No place I think I would rather be, except maybe Guam. I have been running a bit since I have been here too. These hills are killer. I did about 6-7 miles yesterday and I swear most of it must have been uphill. I also went to WholeFoods to eat dinner. Good food. Good sights. I look forward to the weekend. Game on!

The Best Book Ever!!

I have wondered about this for some time now. Why is it that every book that comes out is always on the NY Times bestseller list? I fail to understand how just about every book is on it. How many copies do you have to sell to make this list. Furthermore, I know for a fact that not that many people read books. They are for chumps and nothing smart ever came out of one.

Bumbaclot!, Lord have mercy, Irie! (in a Jamaican accent):A letter to Sean Paul

I like a little bit of reggae. Very little. Mostly I like the traditional sounds, such as Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, etc., and I like a little bit of the chant stuff, most recently Matisyahu. I can't stand dancehall. This means you Sean Paul. Please explain to me how you can speak perfect English sometimes and others you sounds like a deaf/mentally challenged child. Sure I will watch your video to see all of the crazy dances but I could live without your craptastic lyrics that I can only understand a few words of.

Sean Paul, I fail to realize how you can mumble through a whole verse of garbage and then find the time to put a few words in each verse that sound like perfect English. If you can speak in an audible fashion, why not do it all the time?

Case in point, this new song sounds like you are saying. "Da da da da da da, you are making me harney (supposed to be horny, I think), dada dada dad dang dang, fulfill my fantasy." What I don't understand is, you don't even pick just easy words to say in plain English. You even pick multi-syllabic words.

So Mister Paul, I implore you. Please please speak English or Jamaican not both or neither.

Live and direct!

Come in, come in!

The other day I went to Tropical Smoothie for a delicious wrap and a tasty smoothie. After procuring both, I got up to leave. This is when I was made a fool, for what I think is one too many times.

Why do these businesses insist on keeping the right door locked. First of all it is just stupid to have 2 doors in a place and always have one locked when there is going to be 2-way traffic, about, hmm, 100% of the time. I just don't get this and it is really starting to piss me off.

Another reason that I think this is so dumb is that about 80% of society is right handed. Meaning, we are, as a people, always going to lean towards entering places on the right and leaving places on the right. Hell, we even drive on the right side of the road. It is in our brains to stay to the right. Why then, do they insist on locking the right door? ARRRGHH!!!
