Jimmy....

Enough with the invites already.

Danny....screw you...why you singling me out?????? Hahahaha.

Alternative to Makeover

Michael, if your makeover doesn't help you to win over your chick; check out Dimitri's approach. This dude seems to have a good handle on how to win the ladies over.

Stages of Life

I'm sure all of you have noticed the numerous and varied stages of life we all seem to go thru or watch those of approximate age go thru. It always fun to compare experiences and share the lessons of life learned as we travel down the road we call life. We all remember anxiously awaiting the first few black hairs to appear on our boys in middle school and showing them off proudly like a badge of courage. Or sharing high fives with your buddies when you all lost your virginity in high school- JT missed the boat on this one but he was a late bloomer. The list goes on....
- Getting Married
- Getting Divorced
- Having Kids

This week I watched as a close friend traveled down a lonesome road that I am sure I to will have to travel down sooner or later. I had to watch this poor bastard go thru the angst of preparing to lose his manhood and being neutered. Now I can accept the idea of not wanting to have any more kids and still riding bareback but this sh!t scared me. How the hell did I get to the stage of life where my friends are getting vasectomies? Please God bring me back to the days of yore.... I can only imagine the things waiting for me around the corner of middle age.

American Psycho

Holy crap...just finished watching American Psycho for the first time. Wow that guy is messed up! More scary though is watching the daily routine that they guy goes through every morning taking care of his face. Here is a quote:

In the morning if my face is a little puffy I'll put on an ice pack while doing stomach crunches. I can do 1000 now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

I'm wondering if this was a hint that I need to start watching John more closely since his routine with his micros and whatnot is eerily similar.

Extreme makeover

Which neck do you think Michael is sporting after the makeover?

I'd eat the peanuts out of--their shells.

I returned James's favor and took the crew to the Express game tonight. We didn't have a suite, but I did manage to get us seats on the 3rd row basically behind home plate. Towards the end of the game I was enjoying some roasted peanuts. Who cares, right? Bear with me. I picked up an odd peanut habit from Nunnrey years ago. I eat them shell and all. This usually throws people off a bit, and tonight was no exception. A dude taps me on the shoulder and asked if I was indeed eating the entire peanut. He pointed to his lady and said she had noticed I was eating them dirty. He asked if he could try one so I obliged and also made his girl try one. They liked or humored it. Hopefully I've spread my deviancy to a new crowd tonight.

Deebo's Chicken Coop

Today I was at the gym on one of the cardio machines (hard to believe...I know). I kept hearing some bird squawking. I kept looking around and felt like I was in Deebo's chicken coop since I couldn't see where the hell the noise was coming from. Finally, I realized it was some old woman on a stair step machine that had her pet bird in a soft-sided pet carrier.

Who the hell brings their pet bird to the gym?
