Did I just get a round house kick to the face by a guy in pictured pants? (they still make and sell these and other varieties apparently…www.damagewear.com/ clothing/workout-pants.html) I think so…I am sitting here watching the news and in the last 20 minutes 2 stories have occupied my attempt to become better informed.

1st much music VJ RICK “who the heck cares” spoke for 15 minutes about how Shalaila (or whatever), some rockstar supernova girl who talks through her nose, had some meltdown and broke a glass and a shard cut some guys head. BOOO FREAKIN HOOO. I mean I will admit I have watched an episode of that show…but they were singing, you know being talented and some what exceptional. I am sure Brittney Spears dropped a dish in the last week and it broke…someone may have even cried…but it should not be on the PRIME TIME NEWS. There are people dying in wars, starving to death and stealing from each other in public…we need to re evealuate our priorities if this is what people feel they need to know.

Speaking of talent…the next story pretty much pushed me over the edge. The topic in question…when will video gaming be in the OLYMPICS. All together now…

!!!ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!

Props to all you gamers out there, you have mad skills…oh wait should I use web lingo…U got >:( sklz. U B gr8 wit dat [!].
(that last one is joy stick by the way, I think I may have mixed some eubonics in ther too)
But come on…the olympics is the ultimate athletic competition. I think it would be great to have a gaming olympics, and not just video games…get all those board game nuts from the 70’s and 80’s, as well as every winner of the poker games happening on every channel of espn to join in. That way they will all stop trying to con there way into the most celebrated event of athleticism in the history of the human race. If you can smoke and/or drink and/or save your progress for a month and come back and be at the same “level” as when you left then it is not a sport. Not to say that there aren’t thousands of people in the world doing it, and yes, some one is infact the best at it. But the olympics is not called “The Giant Contest of Who is Best at Any Damn Thing in the World…Games”.

The Olympics is a Celebration of athletics and sport…and the news is about relevent things that people need to know in order to get there asses off the couch and say, “What the hell thats not right, we need to do something about that.” and not to hear about some stupid “emotional break down” that some ya ya rock star had because she was drinking to much and finally realized she talks like a man. If you don’t hear about that crap, your life, and her life will go on, and both probably for the better.

There…I think…I may….just….be done freakin out………………*sigh*
Check out the cool pics my main squeeze brought back from greece (in the pic section)…they have a lava lamp like calming effect…imagine the woshing of the ocean while you look at them and you will……be……lulled off ……to ZZZZZZZZZ
