As if I needed another reason to hate the ride “Invertigo” at Six Flags Great America. Last time I went, it was with Joe and EJ when we went for “Gay Day” and even while intoxicated, it was scary as hell. I can’t stand that “hang.”
The funniest bit are the sound bites that were included in the story posted on MSNBC (…seriously, though, would you...
Watch…seeing Serena Williams play last week only three rows away from the court. Glad I remembered for once to bring my FlipCamera. The last minute of Serena’s reaction is my total favorite—freakin Serena fierce, I love it. Can’t get enough.
WatchJust saw this posted on Claire’s wall and I died in my chair laughing. One of the funniest parts was seeing the owners hands cosmically splashing about while the poor tortured cat with that desperate, vacant look in its eyes. Like with new drop of water a little piece of the cat dies.

Highlight of the day...
…laughing with Chelsea and Angela for 45 minutes over discussion of a mutual acquaintance (over 50) who recently became a fan of “morning sex” on Facebook.

I actually asked myself if I had enough time to pee.

For Clara and Einat who are always “shut-ting-it-DOWN.” Completely fell in love, for the second time, when I came home to find repeats on my DVR. To quote Rachel, “I die.”
Seriously have to click and watch the video on above link.
What I wanna know...
…is how on Facebook you’ll get event invitations from people for events nowhere close to a 50 mile radius of your current location.
…it’s like “yeah, I’ll go to your housewarming … in Toronto … Canada”

Groaning with co-workers over studio guy's expired...
Shannon (to Angela and I): Did you hear that Jason's subscription to OK! got cancelled?
Eric: Seriously? That is not OK!
Angela: I know...We need to get that to US Weekly, because we're PEOPLE who are In Touch, with Life & Style.
**Side bar: Cannot believe Angela came up with that line out of nowhere in literally seconds. Comic genious. Love her.
Friday afternoon with my mates
Angela: ooohhh....KFC grilled chicken (points to ad in PEOPLE)
Shannon: mmmmm, have you ever had it?
Angela: no but I heard it's salty.
Me: I've had it ... and I totally love it ... must be because I love all things salty.
[collective groan]
Me: ... the only thing is, when they grill it, the chicken totally shrinks and shrivels up.
[taking a moment to find the best analogy]
Me: ... like seriously
Me: ... if i were to compare the size of the grilled chicken
Me: ... it's like what am I eating really...? ... an aborted baby chicken?
[Angela and Shannon clearly grossed out]
Me: like really though

Claire and I texting back and forth about Chris...
Me: Okay, how dead obsessed are you over all the Rihanna, Chris Brown drama? It's like a Lifetime Movie Network made for TV movie come to life...I'm following as closely as a presidential election.
Claire: OMG, seriously obsessed. Did you hear that she had bit marks? WTF? I never thought of Chris Brown as a biter. Please keep me updated of every tidbit you hear about this, even if it's 4am. In terms of a career boost, this is on par with a tragic death ala Aaliyah.

Random
Seriously, what’s up with the guy on Market and 1st (in front of Specialty’s), here in the Financial District who plays with the bag pipes.
The bizarre, extremely random nature of his playing schedule is what gets me:
Literally playing rain (like today), hail (like a month ago), or shine (like the unseasonably warm temperatures we had a week ago)
Often starts as early as 8 am and...

An OPEN 'Thank You' Letter
Goes out to my fellow male co-workers who enjoy—more than not—leaving a nice mix of trashy, informative, and entertaining reading material in the stalls of our bathroom for future visitors. Not only is everything stacked rather neatly (which I find to be sort of an oddity for the male homo sapien), I’ve found that interstingly enough, each publication is usually coincidentally...
Favorite pastime
Remember practicing your signature over and over again?
using every single visible space on the paper

So funny…this came to mind after reading a friend’s facebook profile…he had listed this as his “favorite quote.” HI-larious.

It has come to my attention that California amended its constitution to ban marriage for same-sex couples.
Please remove the 14th Amendment from your back pocket and bitch-slap my state like it owes you money.
Thank you for time, and I look forward to your ruling.
All the best,

AMEN. Can i get a what what on that one.
