SCOREBOARD TEXAS!!!

Okay, I'll admit it. I'm not the world's biggest football fan...nor do I jump on the bandwagon when a franchise is on the role...I don't really know why but I do have a short attention span when watching the tube, maybe that's a part of it. But I do know about cheerleaders and the number one cheerleading squad. Its non other than the world renowned Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders. Evey one who is any one is familiar with that royal blue tank top and white vest, the western cowgirl boots, and of course the white booty shorts that complements the uniform itself. This 50+ cheerleading franchise has been in moves, tv shows and even has major sponsors. And thats why they are number 1. Or so we thought. According to CNBC.com Dallas is not number and more...no not even number 2...try 3rd. The new tittle of Best Cheerleading Squad goes to Indianapolis Colts! The Colts do have similar uniform as Dallas except the colors are reveres, white dominates the blue. And if Dallas is #3 then who could possibly be #2... Why the Houston Texans Cheerleading Squad of course!

Here are the top 5 according to CNBC.com

1. Indianapolis Colts

2. Houston Texans

3. Dallas Cowboys

4.Miami Dolphins

5. Philadelphia Eagles

BOOBS REVEAL YOUR PERSONALITY

BOOBS REVEAL YOUR PERSONALITY

A sex researcher says he's discovered how a man can find a perfect mate - by the size and shape of her boobs. "A woman's breasts denote a woman's character, just like her star sign," sexologist Piero Lorenzoni said in published reports. And to demonstrate his premise, the scientist has developed a chart using a variety of fruits to represent breasts. From melons to cherries, Lorenzoni said a woman's temperament can be charted just by matching the correct fruit to her chest size.

• Melons-- Big-breasted gals whose bosoms resemble this fruit may appear to be the motherly type, but Lorenzoni says that assessment is way off base. "She likes eating and wants to be spoiled and admired," he said, "but seldom likes sex."
• Lemons -- Happy-go-lucky girls who have these size breasts are "women who are full of life and can laugh at themselves," claimed the expert. "They want a balanced life without surprises."
• Pineapples-- If you're looking for a brainy honey who'll stick with you through thick and thin, Lorenzoni suggest: "A woman with pineapple breasts is intelligent, often has a career but is still romantic. They are also faithful. Whoever wins their heart will not lose it quickly."
• Grapefruits-- Boobs this size could be giving off the wrong signal if a guy is looking for a sex goddess. "This woman may look erotic, but is reality she's bashful," Lorenzoni explained. "She spoils her partner but prefers tenderness over sex."
• Oranges -- Another lady who's all talk and no action is one with a bosom the shape of this fruit. "While she's self-confident, she has little interest in sex," said the researcher. "She likes conversation and friendship."
• Pears-- This shaped woman is a pure romantic. "She loves love in all its variations," Lorenzoni proclaimed. "They can be very religious, but nonetheless pear women are famous for their steamy affairs."
• Cherries-- Girls with petite breasts like this fruit are the most fun, according to Lorenzoni. "They're fun and very exciting," he said. If you want life to be a bowl of cherries, then this is defiantly your gal.

Countdown to U2

Rocktober! Kings of Leon and U2!!!

So after dying last week I have a greater appreciation for life. Especially for concerts. Last week was the Kings of Leon concert and man was it AWESOME! No pictures cause I'm still learning to work out my new phone cam settings, but I and my brother did take some videos. They played their top hits...Use Somebody, Sex On Fire, Molly's Chamber, Notion, The Bucket, Rodeo King...and my favorite of all..On Call.



But this week will be even better because I got tickets to U2! YES that's right U freak'n 2! They were here about 5 years ago at the Toyota Center...but this Wed they will be at Reliant Stadium!!! And I gots the floor seats!!! Honestly I really think their new stuff really sucks so I'm looking forward to the classics.

Here are the songs I really want to hear:
Pride (In the Name of Love)
Sunday Bloody Sunday
One
Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
New Year's Day
With or With Out You

(not a classic but good)
Vertigo
Beautiful Day
All Because of You
Bullet the Blue Sky


And my personal favorite and the best song U2 had ever made:
Where the Streets Have No Name!!!
The guitar intro riff is f'n awesome and it plays out again at the end of the song.
This is the original video of the song:



This video is right after 9/11 and U2 did the half time show for the 2002 Super Bowl:






And here is a preview of what the stage will look like at the concert this Wed

Alive....

Never felt more Alive than now. Hard to imagine that a few weeks ago I was almost dead. Yep, the flu hit me...no not swine, the normal flu. I went to the doctor on Sept 24...they gave me some pills, after that night...4 days of nonstop vomiting. I didn't eat or drink anything for those for days so I got severely dehydrated and to add my potassium levels were in the negatives. That was the worse part because your muscles need potassium to move, and I had none in my entire body. That The next day I checked myself in the E.R with a temperature of 105. Apparently I had lost so much weight from vomiting that the doctor asked me if I had Aids. Did I really look that sick? I can't remember I was in and out of it. They took so much blood from me my arms are still sore today. I spent about 2 days in the ICU cause they thought my body was going to give out, then I finally got out and in my own room. I was released that Thursday, they kept me there until my potassium level was normal...that was a bitch cause I kept vomiting. They gave me liquids via I.V. line...man I never wanted my mom so bad. I really thank God that she was there by my side the entire week. I'm 25 yrs old, and I thought I never needed my mom like I needed her then. I never really wanted to carry on, I did think about just letting go. I never want to ever go through that again...never. It was hard when I got home, I actually had to learn how to walk again, and I would get these cramps in my legs. But I am doing much better...my throat still hurts a bit from all that acid that came up, but it's getting better.

This is the bruise from when I passed out trying to go to the restroom. I hit my arm on the guard rail on the bed.


At least I was fed well. Hospital food has come a long ways now!!! It's just too bad I kept vomiting all up. LOL!

And this is how I was fed the first few days, through my veins. You can see the bed pan across the way, I fill that up at least 4 times a day with vomit.

WOMEN'S SECRETS ARE IN THEIR PURSES

MEN THEIR SECRET IS OUT!!!

Dr. Sheldon Zigelbaum says guys can learn a lot about the secret world of women by the type of purses they carry. She says if a woman carries a:

• Cluttered purse -- She's warm, generous and an outgoing person. She was a relaxed attitude toward life and is an easy-to-be-with person.
• Well-organized purse -- A no-nonsense person with high self-esteem. She finds it easy to perform beyond her capabilities.
• Cover-girl purse -- Lot's of cosmetics reveal a dramatic person. She has a flair for the unusual, an active imagination and will sometimes laugh or cry at the drop of a hat.
• Photo-album purse -- A conservative person with down-to-earth ideals. She's nostalgic and relishes her past.
• Office-supplies purse -- This woman likes for every minute to count. She is a list-maker and will never forget a birthday.
• Snack-filled purse -- She is a born hostess and loves celebrations and parties. She is happiest when unexpected things happen including surprise visits from unannounced friends.

National Underwear Day

TODAY IS..... (by the way.... if you don't wear any... I guess you miss out today... hahahaha! - DJ)

National Underwear Day -- Who knew your underwear could be so revealing? Handbag.com, TheSite.org and the Arizona State University have it all figured out:

Women

• High-cut briefs -- Ladies who wear "granny panties" tend to be perfectionists, except when it comes to style. They care most about comfort and function. They are practical people who don't dress to impress.
• Boy shorts or thong -- Women who don these are confident go-getters who enjoy a challenge. They like to show off their curves, are outgoing, and open to new things. They also enjoy not having a panty line when they wear pants. They like the thong because it makes them feel sexy even when they wear jeans, while boy shorts are cute and feminine -- without baring it all.
• The need to match -- Some women must have a matching bra and panty set. These confident women are quite fashion-conscious and enjoy pampering themselves. Some might even call them spoiled or high-maintenance.

Men (I'm in red...lol)

• Boxers -- Wearing boxers is all about comfort, but men who prefer boxers are generally laidback, not too flashy, and light-hearted. Boxers are the #1 choice in underwear for men.
• Briefs -- Nicknamed tightie-whities even if they are red or blue or some other color, briefs are worn by men who are inhibited and like the restricted feel of this kind of underwear. Hey guys, it's not uncommon for women to think of you as their little brother when they find out you wear briefs.
• Boxer-briefs -- Can you say the best of both worlds? Men who opt for boxer-briefs are very good at committing in relationships. Hey, they already know how to compromise since they've done it with their underwear!
• Thong -- Men who wear thongs are tremendously outgoing and some are exhibitionists. Check a male thong-wearer's high school yearbook, and you'll no doubt find "Class Clown" under his name.
• No underwear -- Either someone forgot to do the laundry or he is very down-to-earth and embraces a natural way of life.

A Cosmopolitan Web poll ask: "What type of underwear do women like best on men?"

• 45% said boxer briefs
• 40% said boxers
• 11% said low-rise styles
• 4% said briefs

Underwear: A Brief History (from Cosmopolitan):

• 2500 B.C. -- The ancient Egyptians sported what was probably the first ever version of underwear the loincloth.
• 1200s -- During the Middle Ages, the first pull-on underpants were invented. These loose fitting drawers, called braise, tied at the waist and midcalf.
• 1500s -- Codpieces became popular. Shaped to show off a man's goods, these enhancers were often filled out with padding.
• 1800s -- Cotton companies were massed-producing undies like the union suit, a full body style with ranging sleeve lengths.
• 1930s -- Companies began selling what were the first boxers shorts. And in 1934, Jockey debuted Y-vent briefs.
• 1960s -- With the invention of materials like nylon and Lycra, underwear got more comfortable and more colorful.
• 1982 -- Calvin Klein posted a billboard in Times Square of a hot guy in briefs, and it got a lot of people buzzing.
• Today - Men's underwear has really evolved. It now comes in high-tech materials and daring styles, like the man thong.

Houston Art Car Parade

The Annual Houston Art Car Parade is this weekend, and tomorrow is the Main Street Drag. It's just a preview of what's to be shown. If you never been to the parade then you really need to go. Here is a link of the past one that I went to. I'm trying to get Taneisha to come out..but she is being a butt head about it. I've helped built 2 cars, one in middle school, and the other in high school. It's a really cool thing to go to. The cars start lining up at 9am - come early and get a view that's up close and personal. Vendors and refreshments on site. Parade rolls at 1pm Allen Parkway between Taft and Downtown.FREE

Why do people make things difficult?

Just a venting issue....

A while ago I put up shift coverage card at work so I can take the day off and do some school stuff. At the bottom of the card I put "Will work your Saturday shift." Some one signed it so I got the day off. I told this person to give me a fair advance time of notice so I can make some preparations on my schedule. That person agreed. Well, this person decides to let me know at the very last minute...very late on Friday via text...by the way in which it was in my locker due to work related rules. I didn't check my messages later that night, so it was too late. Now this person is asking for me to cover her shift again, but I have a final on that day. I clearly explained it to this person what went wrong the first time, and the complications for this time. For some reason she just can not get this in their head. I have even told this person that I will work for them during the week and a Saturday.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine C+

In X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Huge Jackman reprises his role that jump started his career as a new form of the human evolution process. Born as James Howlet (also goes by Logan) is a mutant in which is characterized by one human having the X-Gene; a genetic trait that causes a DNA mutation and causes the human to have abilities. Wolverine’s possesses the abilities of cell regeneration (wounds that heal by itself), heighten senses (super smell and hearing) and retractable bone claws that come out of his fist. Yes bones. This is one thing I liked about the movie. We have always seen Wolverine with his metal claws but we were never really introduced on these claws in his earlier years. It was always implied that he had claws but was only left to the imagination. Later on he agrees to go under a medical procedure that actually turns his bones in to a type of metal, the strongest known to man. His reason for doing this is to seek out revenge against Sabertooth who “killed” Logan’s love interest in the move. What Logan didn’t know what that this was a set up, and the death of his love was acted out. Right after the medical process, Logan uses his super hearing and over hears that his memory will be erased and he will become a humanoid weapon for the U.S. Government. He breaks free and the movie is set up from here, trying to catch him and bring him back to the facility.
Once again we are hit with a complicated and drown out storyline along with poorly defined characters. Just as the last X-MEN movie…it’s too much story for one movie. If the movie is entitled X-Men Origins: Wolverine, then why not actually show is origins. We are only given about 10 minutes of his childhood, learning that he and Sabertooth/Victor are actually brothers….mistake #1. This takes a whole lot from the characters, and this is not in the comics. In the comics Logan actually runs away from home to live among nature, a local Native American tribe….and wolves. Yes the exact same animal he is based on is not even brought up in the movie. We do get a montage of all the wars he as fought in from the American Revolution to the World Wars. I did like that though.
Mistake #2. He is part of a special force tactical unit called Weapon X. It would have been nice if they made some kind of reference to Captain America…second thought no…look what they did to Ghost Rider, Dare Devil and Spiderman 3.
Mistake #3 Sabertooth….hmmm, lets just give him some canines and glue some Frito corn chips to his finger nails. Yeah WTF, that reseble nothing like Sabertooth. Sabertooth in X-MEN 1 was better. Gambit…I expect more that just throwing cards and jumping around. He can charge things and make them explode, why was this not used in the movie…oh because he was only in it for about 5 minutes…just like every other mutants.
The biggest mistake…Ryan Reynolds!!! WTF were they thinking!!! I guess they didn’t see Blade 3. Dry comedy in a action movie does not ever work.
This is paint by numbers movie; you basically know what’s going to happen, animal roars, fight scenes, and graphics.
The worst thing is that I saw this movie online for free….and I still want some money back.

Unfortunately X-Men (Mislead)Origins: Wolverine, there is a sequel in the works…

Foxy.....

MMMMM.....Transformers.

How to shuss your lady in a nice way.

Tired of your lady's complaints? She'd have it much worse overseas. The next time your woman busts out the following common relationship complaints, whip out this handy guide and remind her exactly how good she has it! Good Luck!!!

1. You never do any housework. -- In rural Albania, men are forbidden from doing household chores because lifting a finger is seen as a sign of weakness. An Albanian lady's "chores" can include strenuous labor, such as lugging enormous bales of hay from one paddock to another while her man stands around and smokes.
   
2. You don't understand my cycle.-- Women toiling in Mexico's export-driven maquiladora factories can be subject to spot pregnancy checks, with some employers going as far as to inspect ladies' sanitary napkins for evidence. Despite lawsuits from human-rights watchdogs, Mexican authorities have claimed that the practice is legal.
   
3. You're scared of commitment. -- Thanks to a cunning interpretation of an Islamic law, Syrian men can divorce their wives by muttering "I divorce you" three times. By contrast, a woman has to go to court, a process that can take up to five years. In that time, her husband may have already bagged several more wives.
   
4. You're obsessed with my past. -- In Turkey, unmarried women are pressured to take virginity tests at the behest of their meddlesome parents. A woman who fails may find herself abandoned by her family and the invasive exam can even be ordered after death. The nation's men, meanwhile, wield their beef kabobs with impunity.
   
5. You don't support my career. -- A 1996 Russian law restricts women from entering 400 professions "inconsistent with femininity." Those industries include building, crane operation and working in tunnels. Women who had labored loyally without complaint during Soviet times found themselves jobless overnight.
   
6. You never let me drive. -- Before 1990, it was merely socially unacceptable for women to drive in Saudi Arabia. Then, after 50 women protested the custom by taking a spin through the capital Riyadh, the Grand Mufti outlawed lady driving altogether. The protesters were detained and many of them lost their jobs.
   
7. You stifle my ambitions. -- Acting "in the interests of the household," Cameroon passed a law in June 1998 requiring women to obtain their husband's permission before seeking a job in a trade other than his. Sexist nonsense? Ask J.Lo what happens when you're more successful than your man.
