Christmas Trees, Dates and Women

• A Christmas tree is ready when you go to pick it up.
• A Christmas tree won't retaliate if you dump it after a month.
• You don't need a clever line to pick up a Christmas tree.
• You can fondle a tree before you take it home.
• A Christmas tree doesn't mind you looking under it.
• A Christmas tree doesn't become envious around bigger trees. This would be known as treeness envy.
• A Christmas tree doesn't go completely to pieces if you mishandle its balls.
• You don't have to worry about who else has had your tree.
• A Christmas tree doesn't worry about how many others you've had.
• A Christmas tree doesn't object to exotic electrical appliances.
• A Christmas tree doesn't think your a whacko if it finds an artificial tree in your closet.
• The tree doesn't get upset when you tie it up and put it in the trunk to take it home.

Why Christmas Trees are better than women:

• Your Christmas Tree never makes fun of you for having another fake one in the closet.
• You never have to sit there and wait 20-minutes while you Christmas Tree finishes getting ready for the big company Christmas Party!
• You pick out your Christmas Trees by groping them all over and feeling around the base.
• How may times have you heard a Christmas Tree complain that all you do on Sunday is lie-around all day, watching football, and drinking beer.
• When you've had enough of your Christmas Tree, all you have to do is drag it out in to the woods, or toss it on the curb to have it hauled away.
• Your Christmas Tree never orders the lobster brisk and champaign. All it wants is water!
• It doesn't matter what a Christmas Tree wears, they always look fat in it! (So the hell cares?)
• Your Christmas tree doesn't care how many other Christmas Trees you've had in the pat. (Big added bonus)
• Unlike women -- Christmas Trees cannot run away when they first spot my face.

Cheech & Chong

I am selling my Cheech & Chong Light Up America tickets. The reason: my mom e-mailed one day saying that she would like to see them. I thought this would be her Christmas gift this year...but I found out she also e-mailed my brother earlier in the day as well. So we both bought tickets. I am selling mine for $85, original price was $105.

LET THERE BE ROCK!!!

Sit down children as I tell you the start of Rock and Roll:

In the beginning
Back in nineteen fifty-five
Man didnt know about a rock n roll show
And all that jive
The white man had the smoltz
The black man had the blues
No one knew what they was gonna do
But Tchaikovsky had the news
He said -

Let there be light, and there was light
Let there be sound, and there was sound
Let there be drums, and there was drums
Let there be guitar, and there was guitar
Let there be rock

And it came to pass
That rock n roll was born
All across the land every rockin band
Was blowing up a storm
The guitarman got famous
The businessman got rich
And in every bar there was a super star
With a seven year itch
There were fifteen million fingers
Learning how to play
And you could hear the fingers picking
And this is what they had to say

Let there be light
Sound
Drums
Guitar
Let there be rock

One night in a club called `the shaking hand
There was a ninety-two decibel rocking band
The music was good and the music was loud
And the singer turned and he said to the crowd -

Let there be ROCK!

-AC/DC-

Last night was one of the best nights of my life. AC/DC at the TC. What a show, words can't express the energy in the air and the adrenaline through my veins. Here are some pics and vids.

With the auto crisis hitting America, did you ever think that it might have an effect on an Autobot? What would an Autobot look like if he was laid off? Probably something like this....

Lucky for us there is no such thing as an Autobot...or is there? Any who this piece was created by Michael A. Salter, and his work is currently on display at the Rice Art Gallery at Rice University. Art and robots...what more can you ask from a guy. But hurry, the exhibit leaves December 14!!! So hurry and "Roll Out!"" ...that's a lil Autobot humor for ya.

THEY'RE HERE! THEY'RE HERE! (Artists of the month)

THEY'RE HERE! THEY'RE HERE!
My AC/DC tickets came in the mail!!!! I will get to be part of ROCK history! Formed by brothers Malcolm and Angus Young, the Australian rock band will be making its way in 2 weeks at the TC to promote their new CD "Black Ice" 8 years in the making. During the 70's rock music was considered to be the music of the Devil, and it was thought that AC/DC stood for Anti-Christ Devil Child. Cool, but not true. The name actually came from the Youngs brother's sister sewing machine. AC/DC was printed on it an abbreviation for alternating current/direct current. By this, the brothers felt that this symbolized the bands raw energy and the powerful electric current that came from their music.

Here is Rock and Roll Train, their first single since 2000.

Wait....you still don't know who AC/DC is.....

HIGH WAY TO HELL, you gotta know that!!!!

The New Man-i-festo of Dude Talk

For those who are new to Brovember, it is a month-long celebration of male comradery and all things bromantic. It takes place during the 30 days of what was formerly known as November. "Bromance" is defined as a sentiment of platonic love and compassion between men. Although not necessarily meant in a homoerotic sense, it absolutely can be. During this month, men celebrate the love they have for one another by congregating and usually embibing alcohol. The pursuit of the opposite sex loses all importance as men freely express the pride they have for their gender and the importance with which they hold their close male companions. At the pinnacle of the month, regularly celebrated on the day immediately following Thanksgiving, the annual Men Eating Animals Together, or, M.E.A.T. Feast is held. At this event, all men who are well enough and down enough gather at a given location, cook a surplus of meat, drink jug upon jug of red wine and case upon case of Pabst Blue Ribbon. There are no utensils, no plates, no napkins, no shirts, no girls, and no white wine allowed. This night is the most important night of the year.

Masturdate: (noun)
Mass-ter-date
-A self pleasure session planned in advance, like a date.

All You Need is Love

- No really, it is all you need for a headache. Love, or sex, fucking, knocking boots, hammer time, nookie, num num, getting some byrid, bumpin' ugglies, whoopie, riding the bologna pony, booty call, dipping the wick, a nooner, hide'n the snake, boinking, sheet tag, kanoodling, frolic (LOL thats for Kara), checking the oil level, or shagging; what ever it is, it can cure.

Sex is one of life’s most enjoyable physical pleasures, but did you know that it’s also great for your overall health? That’s right-sex has been found to help with conditions ranging from the common cold to high blood pressure. And although you’re not likely to come home from your next doctor’s appointment with a scribbled prescription for sex, it can be highly effective as a preventative measure and complementary treatment. Read on to find out what conditions you’re protecting yourself from every time you enjoy a roll in the hay.

1. Depression: Without the help of researchers, just about anyone can agree that sex will make you feel good about yourself and just a bit more confident. But one researcher has said there’s a scientific explanation that goes a bit farther. Professor Gordon Gallop says that there’s an unknown chemical in semen that has an antidepressant effect on women.
2. Pregnancy: Sex is both the cause and the cure for pregnancy. Women who are ready to induce labor often have sex to speed up the process, and research backs up this method. Semen contains prostaglandins, which help the cervix prepare to open, and orgasms produce oxytocin, which will help cause contractions.
3. Headaches: Although sex can sometimes bring on a headache, it can cure them too. The tension release your body experiences during and after sex can ease restricted blood vessels in the brain.
4. Menstrual cramps: Sex acts as an analgetic to relieve menstrual pain, primarily because of the relaxation and endorphins sex brings.
5. Arthritis: In his book, “How to Treat Arthritis with Sex and Alcohol,” rheumatologist Carter V. Multz asserts that sex, as well as alcohol and other complementary treatments, can reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation associated with arthritis.
6. Common cold: Manfred Schedlovski, a Swiss researcher from Zurich, asserts that sex has a positive effect on phagocytes, which are a part of the immune system that goes after alien bodies, like cold germs, and kills them. Phagocytes are increased signficantly during sex, and will often double after orgasm.
7. Stress: Orgasms offer a great way to relax, and even nonorgasmic sex offers some relief. Dr. Joshua Golden asserts sex’s relaxation properties, as well as emotional benefits.
8. Tooth decay: Kissing, as well as oral sex, encourages saliva production. This increase in saliva helps to wash food particles from your teeth, prevents plaque build-up, and helps lower decay-causing acid. Additionaly, seminal plasma has been shown to help prevent tooth decay.
9. Erectile dysfunction: By exercising your Kegel muscles with frequent sex and delaying ejaculation, men can help strengthen muscles enough to help with minor erection problems.
10. High blood pressure: Semen has been found to lower blood pressure in women. Specifically, swallowing semen can help ward off preeclampsia, which is a dangerously high blood pressure that sometimes occurs during pregnancy.
11. Insomnia: Many people find that the relaxation they experience after sex helps them go to sleep.
12. Prostate cancer: Men who ejaculate more frequently have been found to be at a lower risk of developing prostate cancer.
13. Hangovers: Sex may not save your liver, but it will help you shake off a funk. Having sex will help boost your endorphins and oxytocins, which stimulate muscle contraction and help you avoid aggressiveness.
14. Toxic system: Sex gets your blood pumping faster, which helps to rid the body of waste.
15. Heart disease: Studies have shown that if men have sex twice a week or more, they tend to have a lower risk of heart attack. For women, increased levels of estrogen caused by sex help to protect against heart disease.
16. Stubborn wounds: Studies have found that oxytocin, which is released during sex, can help wounds heal faster.
17. Low energy: Sex increases energy through exercise and emotional well-being.
18. Minor cognitive problems: Whenever you become sexually excited or have an orgasm, the hormone DHEA is released. DHEA has been found to improve cognition.
19. Skin irritations: The sweat released during sex will cleanse your pores, helping to relieve rashes, blemishes, and other skin problems.
20. Pain: Orgasm releases endorphins, which will alleviate pain for just about everything.
21. Obesity: Although few doctors are likely to prescribe a sex diet, the fact is that sex is a form of exercise. Performing the act of sex requires physical activity that will burn calories and strengthen your heart. It’s an especially great exercise for those who have little motivation to get to the gym.
22. Incontinence: Every time you have sex, you’re exercising your Kegel muscles, which are the same ones you use to stem the flow of urine.
23. Weak bones and muscles: Sex brings on a boost of testosterone, which helps to make your bones and muscles strong.
24. Semen allergy: Unfortunately, some women are allergic to their partner’s semen. However, along with other treatments, frequent sex has been found to work as an effective desensitization therapy for this allergy.
25. Death: That’s right, sex can help ward off death for men. Professor Stuart Brody reports that men who orgasm twice a week are half as likely to die as those who only orgasm once a month.

Artist of the Month

So after Blink 182 broke up in 2005 due to band differences, Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker formed Plus 44 (+44) and Tom Delonge formed Angles And Airwaves (AVA). He deliberately reverse the "A" in the "and" to a "V" to spell out his dauther's name, Ava. Cool, huh.

Any ways thier first single was called "The Adventure", but my favorite single is called "Do it for me now". I really like the lyrics.

Do it for me now




Angels and Airwaves Lyrics
Do It For Me Now Lyrics

WTF and some Science.

Saw this on TMZ the other night, The Beyonce Battle.


You might have see a kid do this, or you've might of done it yourself. "How tall are you?" and then the kid says "I'm this tall", showing stretching out arms. Well it's true. You are just as tall as your arm span. Go ahead do it. Have a friend with you, lie on the floor. Now stretch your arms out like a letter "T". Have your friend mark the start of your arm span to the other...so mark where you right hand starts, it should be the middle finger cause it's the longest, now do the same for the left hand. Stand up and look at it. Now lie back down next to it so that you are parallel. Which is bigger, your arm span, or your height?.....Your arm span should be just a little bit longer than you. Where did I get this information? Why, I got it from work, The Houston Museum of Natural Science and Body Worlds 2: The Brain, our 3 pound gem.

Trying to find a woman whos never been born

-Going to California-

Spent my days with a woman unkind,
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
Made up my mind to make a new start,
Going to California with an aching in my heart.
Someone told me theres a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.
Took my chances on a big jet plane,
Never let them tell you that theyre all the same.
The sea was red and the sky was grey,
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
As the children of the sun began to awake.
Seems that the wrath of the gods
Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
I think I might be sinking.
Throw me a line if I reach it in time
Ill meet you up there where the path
Runs straight and high.
To find a queen without a king;
They say she plays guitar and cries and sings.
La la la la
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
Tryin to find a woman whos never, never, never been born.
Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
Telling myself its not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.

A good girl is hard to find.

I'm not asking for much ya know...



These past few days I've been working extra over time, working 10-12 hrs. In the end the check is juicy. Some shit heads keep calling out at work and so there's no one to work. I'll do it, no life right now. Just saving up to hurry up and leave, get out of this place that I'm in. For once school is not on my top list. Leave and say Fuck You. The people at work are pretty cool. Hanging with them is even better. But the funny part is that every one is at least a roommate with each other. The Halloween mixer was fun...even though some jerk called in and I had to work after 5 till 9. I didn't get to go home and put my costume on. So I just stayed till 10, had a few drinks and fried grasshoppers. Danced a little with strangers to a 80's rock band. Man they played some good music. I went home tired from working 8am-9pm. Today was almost the same. 9am - 7pm.

Mom came over. All we did was watch TV. I missed those kid days.

Still no date for the O-Team Banquet. I don't think I wanna go anymore.

Halloween Edition

1. Jack O'Lanterns originated in Ireland where people placed candles in hollowed-out turnips to keep away spirits and ghosts on the Samhain holiday.

Drum Line

Well may be she isn't misunderstood. Damn she got on my nerves today, contradicting every thing I said.  5 across the eyes! Is what I felt like giving her, but I can't slap her...not at work. A lot of us got off early cause it rained off and on, so there was not a high ticket sell and let us off early. As we were walking in the cars we heard this giant thud, then another, and another. Shit, I really thought there was a fucking T-Rex from the museum behind me. Nope, the U Theater of Taiwan was practicing for the weekend. So we stayed and watch them rehearsed. It was cool. We got to sit right up front and hear them play the giant drums. They even joked with us. Check them out!

Misconception

She's not so bad after all. 

Artist/Band of the Month

If Summer ever needed a make over, Autumn is the answer. Yes it is that "Time of the Season" where the green is now desguised by the ember shades of red, orange and yellow. The wind will start the chilled season.  The one season that will fullfill the yearly mission.  As the song says "It's the time of the season where love runs high." Yes, it is the "time of the season for loving."

So here is a tune from one of my fave 60's Brit mellow rock band.  The Zombies - "Time of the Season."   For this video just close your eyes, and listen to its mellow flow. 

Favorite line : "What's your name? Who's your daddy? Is he rich like me? Has he taken, any time to show you what you need?"  HA!!!

A Block Party

I highly doubt that there will be any normal chick that I'm looking for, but hey, I wouldn't hurt to try.

They always leave

(While I am waiting to buy my AC/DC tickets)

Damn it, she's leaving. Just whenwe started to get to know each other. The only real person I talk to at work. The other night we stayed late, watching an I-Max movie. She's going to work at the Papasitos at 290.

The funny things is that, I thought she and this other girl were the same person, they look so much alike. 

Sick Season

Fall is here and that means one thing, SICKNESS. Here are some tips to avoid getting sick. 

• Become a clean freak. Wash your hands or slap on some sanitizer as often as you can.
  
• Restrict your air space. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta says thedroplets in sneezes and coughs can travel 3 to 6 feet. 
• Step away from hackers so you don't inhale their bugs.
• Bundle up. You can't catch a cold from cold weather, but feeling chilly may dampen your immunity.
  
• Get vaccinated. You'll reduce your risk of infection as much as 80%.
  
• Don't touch your face. Most viruses gain entry to your body through your nose, eyes and mouth.
  
• Bring your own pen. Avoid using any pen handed to you at a store.
  
• Put on your sneakers. That quick walk in the park will increase circulation of your immune cells, improving their ability to detect and fight infection.
  

And get this -- your desk is probably dirtier than the office bathroom, says Charles Gerba, Ph.D., professor of environmental microbiology at the University of Arizonaat Tucson. Toilet seats are usually the cleanest objects in an office because they get cleaned nightly.

The worst offenders:

• Telephone
  
• Desktop
  
• Computer mouse
  
• Keyboard
  
• Copy machine
  
• Fax machine
  
• Water fountain
  
• Kitchenette sponge
  

No class?

I've been waiting at the door since 8 this morning, 8:30, no one is here? Where is my class, it is Thursday...right? Well.. So Ike has really fucked up Body Worlds, no one is coming to the museum, we extended our hours till 9pm, and only 20 people have showed up this week. Yeah I know, easy money, but I need some stimulus. For 5 hours I sat and waited for people to take their tickets. I found out that I weigh 188.5 lbs. There's this scale that is prompt across my station. I went to check it out, put a quarter in and it weighs you, then tells your weight on the other planets and the moon. On Jupiter I would weigh 400 lbs, and the Moon I think was 27lbs. Wow, 188.5 lbs. Thats 21.5 pounds I have lost since last year...but doing what? I guess all the running/walking at Memorial paid off, but I feel any different. Compare that to high school...almost 300 lbs! Yeah I know, jaw dropper, so thats what, a retail difference of... 111.5 lbs... Bob Barker! Tell me what I've won!

Little by little I've been talking to Clair, she's going to ACL, damn her. She's the mini punk rocker chick that I orientated when she came to UHD for Freshmen Orientation. Whoa speaking of Clair, now i can watch Heroes, since work made me miss it this Monday.

Courtship

There is a girl you like so you tell her
your penis is big, but that you cannot get yourself
to use it. Its demands are ridiculous, you say,
even self-defeating, but to be honored, somehow,
briefly, inconspicuously in the dark.

When she closes her eyes in horror,
you take it all back. You tell her you're almost
a girl yourself and can understand why she is shocked.
When she is about to walk away, you tell her
you have no penis, that you don't

know what got into you. You get on your knees.
She suddenly bends down to kiss your shoulder and you know
you're on the right track. You tell her you want
to bear children and that is why you seem confused.
You wrinkle your brow and curse the day you were born.

She tries to calm you, but you lose control.
You reach for her panties and beg forgiveness as you do.
She squirms and you howl like a wolf. Your craving
seems monumental. You know you will have her.
Taken by storm, she is the girl you will marry.
