• So I had the interview today. Eh. The odd thing about this one is that when I was left I thought to myself, “You know, maybe I don’t hate my job all that much after all.” Then again, I don’t hate my job – I hate my dumb-ass management. Wasn’t my best performance, but wasn’t terrible either. One red flag that went up for me was when they said, “You’d be in charge of some hippie computer program and the consultant we’ve had for over a year is leaving in a few weeks.” Translation:

• So I was driving from work en route to pick up the better half, and I noticed this plane flying around with some banner attached to it. What was it? A picture of one of those cavemen with “Geico” printed. So a car insurance company is promoting itself by appearing in a way that will make motorists look up and away from traffic. Brilliant.
• Moron.
MikeSC was talking about this over at the other place, and I really don’t care. This douche brought it on himself. I

• Thanks to Al Keiper for reminding me of this.
So the Mexican welfare family on the better half’s side of the family will have its patriarch soon celebrate his 57th birthday. And the welfare household whose annual Memorial Day cookout is an annual event I completely dread will be having a surprise party. We got an invitation. Uh, no. But that’s not where this story ends. We also got a notice that there is a Wal-Mart gift registry for this event, and Mrs. kkk and I had to see
8:30 p.m.
• Well everything came and went without much of a hitch. Although it was funny to point out to the better half that, when she let the nieces and nephew play with my exercise equipment, that I got the third degree when I babysat them a while back and let them goof around with that stuff.
11:45 a.m.
• So the last few days have been hella crazy. In a few hours we will be hosing a cookout for a few people, and on Friday the better half and I went to get some stuff. Did we go

Atlanta @ Jacksonville (10.5)
Man, I knew I’d be hating these spreads when I first posted them. Sure the Jags will win by double digits.
Buffalo @ Pittsburgh (9.5)
OK, Buffalo has a bunch of injuries, and Pittsburgh won big last week. But they played Cleveland. What do I do? Do I jump on the bandwagon now and have them not cover

• It's a shame Mark Madden wasn't on his ESPN radio show today. I was looking forward to his take on the Pats-spying-on-Jets story. Especially since it now has a Steeler angle.
Having remembered those championship games, it was more than "stealing signs" that got the Pats those wins. I'm still trying to figure out how they stole the sign for "returning a punt for a touchdown." Then again, it wasn't me that busted my ass all year for a chance at the Super Bowl only to g

After you think about it for a while, you realize there’s nothing really spectacular about sfaJack. But that’s not a bad thing. We all can’t be part of a fraternity, get arrested on a frequent basis, molested by uncles or have indy fed wrestling experiences. There’s a large number of us that have insignificant, boring lives. But that’s OK. It’s people like us that make this country work. If it weren’t for saps like sfa and myself getting u

• Well, so much for the "fire Ozzie" talk I have heard in the sports media.
I bet "Around the Horn" panelist Jay Mariotti loves this news. I bet he loves this web site even more. Wow. I mean, I goof on Racist Dusty, among others. But I haven't devoted a web site to these people. At least not yet.

8:15 p.m.
• OK, I've officially given up on the ESPN Monday Night Football experiment. I gave it time. After all, it takes a while for an announcing crew to mesh, but enough is enough. The refs threw a flag for too many men on the field, then recanted. Mike Tirico goes, “What is this, the Florida election?” LOLSTEELERS34BROWNS7~! Tony then brings the hilarity by saying something like, “Well, there were hanging chads in Florida. We have CHAD JOHNSON~!” Jesus Christ. I admit it. I liked ESPN’
12:15 p.m.
• I read about this in the ESPN sucks thread, but I just saw the first video teaser for this shit.
I wonder if some black kid just came up to Tom Jackson and ask if he could, someday, have his own NFL Countdown segment. I knew that running gag would eventually have some sort of payoff other than the hilarity it brings every time I use it.

• But the big question is: What political party is this guy from?
This place is in Kansas, and he's offering to resign, so I'm guessing he's a Republican. However, the article doesn't indicate what party he's affiliated with, so he could be a Democrat. However, small-town elections don't have the same oomph when it comes to political parties (the article says this guy has another job, after all). If the area is made up of Democrats/Republicans, then most local position

• This just popped into my head. The other night I was watching O’Reilly and he had some pro-invasion feminazi bitch on spewing the usual shit about “they’re not illegals” and all this other nonsense. She then started talking about how immigration cops ILLEGALLY storm into the houses of these undocumented employees. Yeah, doesn’t that suck when people illegally enter a territory?

Number 12: Bigolsmitty
With his freedom-hating views he should be called Bigolshitty, but yet he managed to crack the Top 12. How was Smitty able to accomplish such a feat? Take a lesson, commies. If you’re going to hate the country that gives you the freedom to whine about $3/gallon gas and then vote for politicians that want to tax this same resource $4/gallon, please do it right.

• And just how many farting cows had to be raised in order to provide beef for this global warming Big Mac deal?
Next thing you know, we'll be producing gas that takes more energy to produce than it provides in better mileage over other Big Oil products. Uh, nevermind. For those of you that didn't get the last sentence, don't worry. It was corny anyway.

• kkk Bowl V is under way in the sports folder. If you have a team, make your picks (don't forget the Thursday game). If you don't and want to play along, just do so in the thread. Remember, anyone without a team that goes the entire season making picks gets first shot at claiming an open team next year.
• Bwahahaha. She got picked. And even after she told the legal people about her crack-whore sister and niece. When she asked me how she could have gotten out of jury duty, I

• So the better half was a bitch all day and whenever this sort of thing happens I just ignore it the best I can. Usually in these situations any guy will tell you that asking these headcases what’s wrong will get you the obligatory “nothing.” Then, hours later, they’ll do the usual, “honey, I have to tell you something.” Well, snookums, what is bothering you today – A loveless marriage? Not having any kids you can’t afford or will shake to death at the first sign of an all-night
9 p.m.
• So earlier today I had ESPN on – pretty sure it was the “Sports Reporters,” if not then it was one of their talking heads – and one guy on there says that MLB’s western divisional races are the best stories not being told. He then said that he can’t wait for the postseason so we can see these teams in the Pacific Time Zone play on a regular basis. Uh, these teams could be out in three games during the playoffs. I wouldn’t call that “regular.”

Translation: Some horse fucked an idiot to death. And when it was discovered that it’s legal to frolic with a barnyard animals in Washington, Larry Craig said, “Damn, I should have been a senator one state over.”
Oh, and did you know there is a Roadhouse 2 out there? From IMDB's trivia section:
My guess is that the script had Dalton V2.0 not cerebral enough.

• So I’ve been watching a number of preseason games on the NFL network the last few weeks. What I find interesting are the broadcast teams and the way other places around the country promote their station’s local programming and stuff. I know I’m odd.

Basically, my primary, time-sensitive job duty -- the job I was hired to do -- needs to be done during the middle of each month. (That might be a reason why sometime I post an entry during the weekend at work during the 2nd-3rd week of a month.) Well, turns out I now have a new duty for the next six months. Take a wild guess when it’s due? Yep. Every 15

• Well, today was “mow the lawn” day. It stopped being humid and I decided to take advantage of the situation. This was also the first time all year I bothered to crank up the ol’ BBQ. Holy fuck do my grills need cleaning. I know all that gunk makes the food more flavorful, but these things resemble stalactites more than ashy flavor-enhancers. Wait a minute: Is stalactites the ones that hang from the top of something, or is that stalagmites? Whatever, you get the idea.
