Jobs Jobs and more Jobs

I have officially gone from being jobless for a few months to actually having a choice to which job I want to take. God I love America.

Choice #1 Paradise Mall

Paradise Mall is one of those antique stores which basically rents booth space to people that want to get rid of junk. I would work as a cashier getting 6 an hour. Not alot fo money but a very easy job.


Choice #2 Rockin K

Waiter. 'Nuff said.

Of course I could do both, as long as I can work out some kind of schedule. I am just glad to finally have a job.

The Simpsons are officially over

The first season of the Simpsons was set up to be an animated family show. With episodes that touched on preteen, teen, and family issues, they quickly became the cornerstone of millions of tv viewers. Over the next, oh 10 seasons, they quickly left the family issues and went just for laughs, which was ok. After the 18th season though, they have almost completely abandoned everything they had going for them, relying on secondary characters and totally unbelievable scripts.

There were episodes in the beginning that most people in America could identify with, like when Bart was trying to fit in and stole the town statues head, had trouble in school, and strained family/sibling relationships. Now, for the first episode of the 18th season, the gangsters son has trouble fitting in, becomes the head of the Springfield mafia, and kills three people.

So it's official, the Simpsons are absolutely and totally irrelevant and circling the drain.

THEY ARE MAKING A FREAKING ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT MOVIE?!?!?

Wow this was one of my favorite tv shows ever, and with an all star (in my perspective) cast, its a win-win.

The weekend

Well I was sick on friday so we will skip that because I didn't do anything. Saturday was like most, drunken fun. I went to a "sorting" which I had never seen before. For the uninitiated, a sorting is a practice run for horse riders and team ropers. Basically a team of two on horseback tries to get 10 calves from on arena circle to the another in a very specific order. I know that it sounds extremely simple, but calves have a group mentality and you basically have to scare them away from the pack with your horse, and it can be very challenging. After that I went to a coming home party for a friend of mine who now lives in Lawrence. 2 kegs and jungle juice got me really liquored up. After that I went to Mark Smiths house, which was really not my scene, lots of jocks and pretty boys. So I left, and walked half a mile in the wrong frigging direction before I walked the mile home. And sunday I studied for a test. So that was really it.

They have democrats in Texas?

As the showdown between Clinton and Obama reaches a head, It seems Texas will be the deciding state. With 228 delegates, a win for Obama will pretty much put the nail in the coffin. But if Clinton pulls through, she will have the lead and be one step closer to the white house.

Satellite Shoot Down: How It Will Work

A new computer model shows a missile fired at an errant U.S. spy satellite will intercept its target with much of the rubble falling out and burning up upon re-entering the Earth's atmosphere. All I give a damn about is will I be able to see the explosion and the burning debris.

Oh for the love of...

Apparently the Bible isn't surreal enough. Now they want to make some manga-bible in which the stories are animated. Kill me now God.
