    38. Don't remember when I joined because you buggers killed the old board. 2007?

    It's unfortunate when you work in a place that is desperate for bodies (call centers, Wal-Mart, etc.), that slackers and screw-ups aren't rewarded per se, but are kept on to fill a void while the rest of us have to pick up their slack. I'm sure there's a comment about how this burden improves one's character, but I hear your frustration. We've got a few at the casino that are like this: they make the day that much longer.

    To be fair, everything about that night was insane. Nobody was thinking clearly. Tequila may have had a factor. I'm not going to hold grudges over this. UPDATE: no charges are going to be filed. Apparently my GF's sister is being considered more of an "instigator" in this, as after the mystery-man shoved her husband and walked off, she chased after and started slapping the guy. Apparently I came in to stop her and the guy, out of "self defense" punched me because I came out of his blindside. Again, not holding grudges over this. Moving on with my life.

    My younger sister finally quit teaching English in Japan, to move to Ontario with her husband. She stopped in Kelowna three weeks ago and stayed for a week. You can see the family resemblance between her and my girls and I...

    Thanks for the laughs, folks. Much appreciated. More info when I get it.

    Umm, I don't know who he is. I don't remember it happening. I should know more Thursday when the Constable in charge of the case gets back to me. Then...VENGEANCE!

    Actually, the one with the insurance policy (my ex), has gone out of her way to save my dumb ass this past weekend. Crazy how life works...and who your actual friends are, when push comes to shove.

    Yeah, I wasn't really thinking clearly on Saturday. Still not thinking very clearly. Having an issue with remembering some shit.

    Oh, did I forget to add that in my concussed state on Saturday, my GF convinced me to leave the ER before I got checked (because she was tired of staying there), then after promising to stay with me all night to keep an eye on me...promptly bailed on me because "I was acting weird." Hmmm, might have to do with saving a girl (my GF's sister, BTW) from getting KO'd. With my face. I ended up texting my ex-wife at 4am, leaving her a message telling her to tell my daughters they were the two greatest things that ever happened in my life...just in case I didn't wake up in the morning. I then followed up by dumping my GF on Sunday...which also happened to be her 30th Birthday. BEST! WEEKEND! EVA!!!!!

    Fuck the guy who sucker-punched me outside a nightclub Saturday, and gave me a massive concussion...and a nice little bout of amnesia. I've lost a good hour of my life. On the plus side, I saved a girl half my size from getting punched in the face by a random psycho. Or so I've been told. I have no clue what happened. I could've been attacked by flying monkeys, for all I know. Off work for six weeks, so now I have to go on Medical E.I. (no Disability through work), and file with Victim Services, and possibly file a civil suit...fun.

    I watched Larry Crowne the other night. There was a lot of really funny stuff in this, to be honest. Bryan Cranston and Cedric The Entertainer had great supporting roles, and Tom Hanks did a really good job. Ending was sappy as fuck, but it was to be expected. Decent little fluff piece.

    I look *almost* exactly the same, in the exact same singlet...

    I'm man enough to admit they're dolls. Suck it up.

    Grabbed a disc from my pile at random the other night (internet out, no Netflix), and watched MIDDLE OF NOWHERE (2008). Susan Sarandon and her real-life daughter, Eva Amurri, have a tumultuous family life so daughter turns to helping troubled rich-kid, played by Anton Yelchin, sell weed so she can get far away and go to college. Once the movie gets past the preachy "drugs are bad" and "sure, drugs are bad but weed isn't that bad," bullshit...it still isn't that great. It has some solid moments, but they are pieced together too haphazardly: there's some important stuff that just gets glossed over to jump to the next scene. And then it just ended. Mediocre, at best.

    Why does that Hogan doll have HBK's face?

    This guy?

    After I moved out, I don't even know where the AWA discs went. I might be able to pull a marathon...

    It doesn't hurt that Rude legit could fuck you up. There's a match on the Texas set where he gets annoyed with Bruiser Brody after some sloppy bodyslams and just fucking lays into him to the point where Brody is looking worried.

    I drink Lucky, PBR, and Black Label (on tap at the pub I work at), and Negra Modelo. Also when I'm drunk at a party I will drink your beer.

    Thanks to everyone for the kinds words. Actually had a mini-meltdown yesterday at work when a girl made a "your mother" joke for no reason. Everything hit me like a ton of bricks, but I called my mother and got a lot of shit off my plate. Cathartic.

    Stephen Colbert can't even enjoy a weekend at the lake, apparently...

    Not sure if I want to type this, but here we go...look at that, typing away. Maybe this is a big FUCK ME, but my mother has been going through another battle with cancer. This time it's in her bones, and there's a worry it will spread to her brain and some vital organs...and I've got nothing. I did this twelve years ago, when she lost all her hair and both breasts and was (to be blunt) gutted like a fish and left for dead, and I watched her overcome and be "cancer free" for ten-plus years. But what does "cancer free" even mean? If you watch Food Matters, it really means fuck all...which was proven when it came back in a big way in this little woman of 5-foot-nothing. I did all my wallowing and abused myself chemically and got all this shit out of my system when I was 26 years old. Now I'm 38 and got an extra 12 years with her that maybe I didn't deserve...and I'm not ungrateful for that and I'm not a heartless douche (at least I don't think so), but she is talking about DNR and what's to be done with her ashes and my sister is losing her shit and I'm just trucking away like this is another day of the week: I've got a divorce and two jobs and two kids to raise 3.5 days a week and a new relationship that's kinda tricky and yeah...numb to this whole "mother dying of cancer" gimmick. There, I said it. Fuck.

    I find that BSW's shirts aren't the best quality. Some of mine fell apart pretty quick. When I messaged them with my concerns, they were less than polite/apologetic.

    Watching the Macho Madness WWE set: the Steamboat/Savage match from Boston Garden (pre-Mania), is so good. I love how many damn times Savage uses that "fish knux out of my trunks, miss the roundhouse on the apron, only to clock the guy when he belly-to-back suplexes me in for the win" finish during 1985-86 in the fed.

    I can only imagine the comments, but two of the best matches I have ever seen live have involved Davey Richards. The first was Scotty Mac vs. Davey, in front of about 30 people in Burnaby. Despite the tiny crowd, they busted their asses to put on a really thrilling contest. The second was Davey vs. Bryan Danielson in Surrey: the first time I'd ever seen Danielson, and after years of hearing he was "the greatest technical wrester in the world," he went out and worked a 25-minute comedy match with Mr. Serious himself. Tripping over his cape, an endless airplane spin, all types of great stuff. Ridiculously entertaining. Worst match has to be the Nash/Goldberg/Steiner match from New Blood Rising. There's a really horrible match from a show I promoted last November (not a match of mine...but mine are no gems), but I refuse to bring myself to watch it all the way through. I was too busy organizing things to watch it in its entirely, live, which is probably a good thing for everyone involved.
