I am Still Here

Wednesday, June 25th, 2008

Did everyone miss me? You don’t have to answer that, I know your answer. ” You were gone?”

Well it’s been like 12 days since the last post and I wish I could say that we had just gotten back from a wonderful Anniversary vacation to Hawaii, but I cannot. Or in the words of Busy Dad.. it was “my crazy schedule which consisted daily of work and conference activities during the day, official banquets with government folks at night (where much drinking ensued), followed by unofficial but essential business-building activities that lasted until early morning”, but again I cannot.

No … I have just been lazy, unmotivated and basically noting interesting has happened in the last 12 days. We did finally get to actually use the deck for something other than a place to put my grill last night, the neighbors across the street came over and the women drank themselves silly while I kept the firepit going.

We had a little issue with the heat from the firepit heating up the composite decking below it, hopefully the water I threw under it and the scrap wood blocked the heat enough not to ruin the decking already. We shall see when I get home. Looks like another building project.. Build something for the firepit to sit on so it don’t ruin my deck project. This one I KNOW will be quick and easy.

Well, until the next time the ladies get together for their fireside sex chat I am signing off, gotta grab that phone call and make some money.

24 Hotties

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

I was watching Deal or No Deal last night with Twin 1, here is our conversation ( remember she is 5 ):

Me: She’s a hottie

Twin 1: A woman hottie or a chick hottie?

Me: A woman hottie

Twin 1: There is a boy hottie

Me: Who?

Twin 1: The Deal no Deal man

Me: That’s moms boyfriend

Twin 1: He is?

Still a Country Girl?

Saturday, March 22nd, 2008

Growing up in a hispanic household you would think that they only music we would listen to was Mexican music, wrong. My father loves all sorts of music, so we grew up listening to not only Mexican music but to the oldies but goodies, and country and western music as well. It was pretty weird because there were times he listened to all three types in one night, he would be singing a spanish song then dancing to the oldies then howling to country, how I wish I had a video camera back then, lol

So all of these types of music have stuck in my head for ever. In the County and Western music I grew up with Dolly Parton, Conway Twitty (I had a crush on him) Johnny Cash and Lorretta Lynn just to name a few. As I grew older I was not interested in the newer singers that came along, heck I cannot even name one right now, (I think one of them has the last name of Black) so needless to say I continued to listen to the classic singers. Well the King and I love the Apprentice, we have always watched the Donald fire someone, and my least favorite person on that show is that bitch Armarosa (sp) oh do I go crazy when I see that ugly face on TV. Anyway there is a Country and Western singer on the show right now who is so funny, very smart and has always given his team great ideas for projects. His name is Trace Adkins, he has a cute face, a nice bod but the one thing that turns me off about him is that he is really balding under his cowboy hat. Now I know that should not bother me seeing that the King has close to nothing on top of his head but this singer had long hair as well, so if you dont know who he is, imagine a man with no hair on top of his head with long hair on the back of his head. Anyway last week when we were watching the show I told the king that I was going to go and buy all Trace Adkins CD’s that I could find. I wanted to see just how talented this man is, seeing that he is really good on the apprentice. I went out and bought two for starters. WOW!  This guy can sing. I think there are only two songs that I don’t care for.  So now I think I will go out and buy a CD from the newer singers out there and see if I like their music, I know that Trace has been out there awhile but I was only listening to the ones from the 60’s & 70’s, silly silly me, I guess the country girl is still in me somewhere.

Classic Sports Movies

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

Here are a few of my favorite classic sports movies.

Baseball - Major League

- Starring Wesley Snipes, Charlie Sheen, Tom Berenger and Rene Russo

Basketball - Fish That Saved Pittsburgh

- No this is not a very good movie but if you have about 90 minutes to kill and you wanna see some bad acting from Dr J and Kareem its not THAT bad.

Football - The Longest Yard

- I am not talking about the newer version with Adam Sandler , I am talking about the older version staring Burt Reynolds.

Golf - Caddyshack

- Great golf movie, Bill Murray in one of his funniest roles. Also starring Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield and Ted Knight.

Hockey - Slapshot

- This is arguably one of the funniest sports movies ever made, you don’t even have to like hockey to enjoy the slapstick humor. Starring Paul Newman.

If you have not seen Caddyshack or Slapshot these are must see guy movies, if you have not seen them yet them go out NOW and rent them. Anyone else have any favorites?

Late edition….

Bowling - Kingpin 

- Don’t know how I forgot this one. Woody Harrelson stars with Bill Murray in this one about a bowler with a rubber hand.
