I was getting nostalgic and started pulling up old UFC fight videos on YouTube. I remember watching my first UFC pay-per-view fight in the mid 90’s. I was told there were pretty much no rules, that had my attention, I didn’t understand how this was legal. One fight that particularly stands out is one where Jo Son gets his junk punched in multiple times. If any of you remember, Jo Son (creator of Josondo) was Kimo’s grand master.
Here you go, let’s ruin my political career. BUT not before taking some of you down with me.
Friday
6:30PM - Close shop, suuuuuper slow.
8:30PM - We have a pizza dinner, play some Mario Kart.
10:00PM - Duc say’s he’s going to stop drinking so he can go home, sleep, and go to work.
11:00PM - Harold and Kumar: Escape form Guantanamo Bay starts. This movie is PURE comedic gold!
Saturday
1:00AM - Chillin on the balcony enjoying the perfect summer nighttime weather.
2:00AM - Francis knocked out on patio furniture.
4:00AM - I give up and knockout on the couch, apparently beating Francy Pants. She gets the chaise (sucka!).
5:30AM - Move to bed, knock out to jackasses STILL on balcony talking crazy.
Sunrise - I was told that once the sun started rising, things got weird so everyone went to bed. This is when Duc decides he needs to go home. He has work at 9AM.
11:00AM - Wakie Wakie
12:30PM - Watched the Angels dominate the BoSox. Lots of Sox fans, I won’t lie, I was scared.
5:00PM - Enjoying 50 minute mass
6:30PM - Sam’s Club
7:30PM - Get to the condo to people watching Harold and Kumar for the second time. Just as funny!
8:30PM - Fajitas
10:15PM - Swimming pool, hot tub, teaching Hoang how to swim
11:00PM - Lord of the Rings marathon begins as crawfish glutton bowl ends. Watching Hoang eat crawfish is just pure junk.
Midnight -Â Approximately 7 shots of Grey Goose got me super loose.
Sunday Before 1AM - Batman crew comes over to catchup on what they missed out on. We downgraded our cup size, but seemed like it was the same amount of vodka and wayyyy less “other stuff.”
4:00AM - Almost everyone knocked out and Lord of the Rings: Two Towers ends.
Sunrise - I become one of the previously said “jackasses” as Just Elvis and me are on the balcony talking jibberish. I was able to experience the “weird.”
Sunrise:30 - Recording people while they sleep (fun). I go to bed. It’s sad, not enough places to sleep and not enough blankets, but people manage to get “comfortable.”
9:00AM - Wake up to crying babies, Duc cleaning, and John yakkkkkkking. I pop 3 Tylenol and drink lots of water for my raging headache and cotton mouth.
11:00AM - Wake up the 2nd time to Tony dominating some Sunday morning kiddies in some Mario Kart action. Online score sits at around 6300.
Noon - Enjoy a breakfast of pancakes, BACON, and sausage.
2:30PM - Enjoying 7-11 coffee, OMG so good!
3:30PM - Do some blogging.
Later - Hopefully go to the OC Fair.
Sue me for not yet watching (and contributing to the $155M box office grossing) Batman: The Dark Knight movie. I do have plans to watch it, but it probably won’t be for another day or two. Thao is a bit more eager, because she needs to make sure she’s not left out of tomorrow’s Batman discussion around the water cooler.
I have no claim to being the biggest Batman fan, but I would say that I have been intrigued by the darkness of Batman Begins and what seems to be an even more sinister Dark Knight. With the unfortunate passing of Heath Ledger, there has been a lot of hype around the Joker character. I remember watching the first Batman movie on VHS where Jack Nicholson played the role of Joker. I was a bit impressed, because this was around the time I really took notice to Batman. I never asked myself the question, where did the Joker come from? But after reading a short pictorial by the Los Angeles Times, I was definately interested. Have a lookie!
Prolonged sitting at a desk or computer terminal can cause muscular tension and pain. But, by taking a five or ten minute break to do a series of stretches, your whole body can feel better. Its also helpful to learn to stretch spontaneously, throughout the day, stretching any particular area of the body that feels tense for a minute of two. This will help greatly in reducing and controlling unwanted tension and pain.
Warren Buffett’s investment philosophies are much like his life philosophies… live simply. Now we know something else about the Oracle of Omaha, he’s not great at keeping secrets, because he’s sharing 7 that he’s lived by to get him where he’s at today. You’re better off telling someone else about that car you dinged in the bank parking lot, Buffett is a tattletale.

Here is the top 10 worst overpaid NBA players, just to think, I bought a pair of Starbury’s. Damn you Stephon Marbury, I want my $8.98 back! I guess it pays to keep the bench warm.
Nine Inch Nails has embraced the Internet by posting images on Flickr, seeding their last album Ghosts on the controversial BitTorrent site The Pirate Bay, and most recently sending their loyal fans on a scavenger hunt for tickets using Google Earth.
For the upcoming NIN tour, they are hosting a kickoff event for their craziest fans. The band has posted a Google Earth file on their site that sends visitors on treasure hunt to find tickets in and around Los Angeles. This should definitely bring the hardcore fans out of the woodwork.
If you are familiar with Woot.com then you know how hard it is to get a Bag of Crap (BOC). Tonight is Woot’s anniversary so in celebration they decided it would be fitting to put up the cherished BOC for sale. As usual it sold out within minutes and the servers took a huge pounding. I probably waited 5-10 minutes just to get to the buy page and another 45 minutes to get my e-mail confirmation. I would like to thank Firefox 3 for keeping the connection alive and keeping me signed into woot. I would also like to thank Wootalyzer for giving me that (not so) annoying popup and the courage to fight on. I will update you next week with the goodies.
I have a friend selling his most prized posession. It’s an extremely nice 1955 Volkswagen Beetle that has been compeletely restored. Please leave a comment if you are interested.
