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.

Robot Art

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!
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!!!!
