    No Buffet for you!

    The buffet by my school, I managed to time it just right to when the food is fresh. Also, I like Hibachi grills along my buffet for some reason and they don't charge for that either, so it's win-win for me.

    The Gilmore Girls

    Probably the right move, aside from the sight of Rory in a blonde wig and red dress there really wasn't anything redeeming. The endless string of troubador invasion scenes with Taylor wasn't even chuckle worthy, Emily acting matchmaker on Christopher didn't work. Strike that, Kirk's line on Neil Young produced a laugh. Taylor: Who's Neil Young? Kirk: One of the Monkees. A decent one liner and a rare sexy Rory doesn't fix the depressing finale.

    I wish Katharine wore those outfits on performence night instead of the grannie wear.

    Flipping Out On A Rude Customer At Work

    This happened today. .. My job forces me to deal with numerous companies. Anyways, my company builds conveyors and I often get sent to do assembly work on their sites. I walk into my job @ 6 am and I am promptly (before I even clock in) handed the keys to our company truck and a map and told to go to Kellogs Factory in Cincinnati and re-assemble a job "we" (the company, not me) did five years ago. I pack up with the neccesary materials and drive to the place. After the usual BS security check-in's and having to wear a hair and beard net as well as a plastic coat (I had to talk them out of making me wear plastic gloves, citing it would make my job difficult). The bald arrogant middle aged four-eyed prick leads me to where I was stationed. He points at the conveyor and goes "here, when can you fix the fucking thing?" with a really curt attitude. I chuckle because I know the job would take less then 2 hours but I lie and tell him "Probably the whole day". He goes berzerk and cusses me out and I calmly respond "Sir from what I can tell just by looking at this machine, the fault isn't ours. It's from an inept worker who didn't handle it properly. Who is in charge of this station?" and he looks dead in the eye and goes "Me." and tries to act macho and gets into my face. I brush him off and continue on telling him that I should have it finished by lunch time. I start to work on it but the arrogant prick literally stands on my ass and insists on observing my every move. Look, I don't mind when they do this shit because of union purposes (which is an whole other story) but when he justs wants to flaunt his false sense of power, I resent that shit. So I just grinned and beared it despite him constantly asking "why you do that?" or "what does that do?" It's your fucking job to know what this specific part of the machine does. I didn't even install it 5 years ago and I could tell what it did just by looking at it. I told the guy that I left something in the truck and I was going to get it but he forced a security guard to accompany me to my truck. Yeah, because I stole the recipe to Frosted Mini-Wheats and was going to sell it to the highest bidder. Even the guard commented that it was "bullshit". Anyways, The guy was still there when I returned and he never stopped his questions, rude attitude. He told me I couldn't speak to the other employees, I couldn't use their in-factory restrooms or the cafeteria. (I WAS allowed but he wanted to be a prick). Maybe it's not as funny or downright rude as the others told here but who wants to work when a guy who isn't even a part of your company berates you and questions your every move when you are SAVING his ass. All my money goes to the generic brand now.
  6. May 3rd: The main event for 6/17 back at the New Yorker Hotel in Manhattan has been signed. Last time in Manhattan, KENTA teamed with Naomichi Marufuji to defeat Bryan Danielson & Samoa Joe in a battle of the "Best In The World." There was obvious heat between Joe and KENTA. Joe also wants Danielson's World Title and is upset that Danielson took the fall in the tag match. Danielson wants to avenge his loss to KENTA. KENTA has also made waves about going after Danielson's World Title. So on 6/17 you will see one of the most explosive matches ever. It will be Bryan Danielson vs. Samoa Joe vs. KENTA in a one fall three-way. Pride will be on the line in this one as once again the best in the world collide in NYC. Tickets are now on sale at ROHwrestling.com, by calling 215-781-2500 and at Ticketmaster outlets. -roh newswire. Pretty big main event to say the least, The New Yorker has a history of being ROH's best venue and it makes a one night return with a major match up. KENTA is also booked for 6/23 and 6/24.

    The Gilmore Girls

    As it was designed to be, this was a complete downer of a season finale. Very minimal comedy moments and just shrouded in a dark depressing tension building to the confrontation that all fans feared. Although I was expecting to see Chris lift her hand at the end to show a ring, indicating they got eloped over the night.

    WON News and Notes, 8/5

    ECW would make people care about certain workers that didn't a chance with the "big 2". Maybe they didn't have the "right look" or they weren't "big enough" or have the roided up pretty boy bodybuilder look. I don't think people would accept an ECW with the new stars being these Snitsky, Chris Masters, Gymini or Great Khali types. ECW will need these type of wrestlers that are high flyers, harcore brawlers or ring technicians. From what I have seen and heard there are not that many workers in WWE developmental that work these styles. Not too mention that most of them are green and are only being taught the WWE style. Which is why Heyman will be pushing Punk to the moon because Punk has all the tools and he can do so many things in and out of the ring. Promo wise, Punk's a master at working the crowd as a heel or a face. In the ring, Punk can do the mat wrestling (he's improved since his legendary series with Joe in 04), Punk can brawl and he can work a WWE style match as well. It's very rare for a development company to have a talent with even 1/2 of Punk's skills. Punk, would hate this comment but it's true that Punk will be the Raven of ECW 2.0.

    AMERICAN IDOl-SEASON 5: THE THREAD

    Chris wouldn't be in a Fall Out Boy/Simple Plan band, that's emo. Chris would go into the Shinedown/Fuel/Creed bracket of rock music and probably enjoy success beyond any of the other 3 players left. It'd be better for AI to have two success stories come out of AI5. American Idol 1 only has Kelly, AM2 had a modest success in Ruben but Clay had a slightly more profitable run, AM3 was a bomb as far as getting success as Fantasia disappeared, AM4 has Carrie doing solid and Bo has finally come around and he's doing decent as well (and I still think he'll end up with longer success then Carrie). So if they can get Elliot to win (I think Elliot has a longer hold then Taylor would), you can get two "winners" out of one season. I actually expect Katharine to go into acting, probably on soap operas by 2-3 years.

    Ring of Honor 4.28.06

    World Title Match Bryan Danielson defends vs. Jimmy Yang Tag Title Match Austin Aries & Roderick Strong defend vs. Samoa Joe & Matt Sydal Pure Title Match Nigel McGuinness defends vs. Christopher Daniels with Allison Danger The War Rages On Jim Cornette will lead a ROH army(Ace Steel already named) vs. Necro Butcher, Super Dragon & Claudio Castagnoli Special Challenge Match Jimmy Rave vs. Delirious High-Flyers Tag Team Match Irish Airborne vs. Jay Fury & Spud Bonus Attraction Match Colt Cabana vs. Jimmy Jacobs with Lacey Also Scheduled: BJ Whitmer, Adam Pearce, Chad Collyer and more!!! - This is the first night of a pretty action packed weekend in Ohio (which I'll attend each shows). Cornette is also making a "big" announcment (likely to announce his departure from ROH due to his injury and potential return to OVW). This show still seems like the set-up to the even bigger show saturday night in Cleveland. I'll probably have a full report friday night when I return from the show.

    Another reference to the Reformation of DX

    Do video games count or just in the wrestling world? Flair-Steamboat, Punk-Joe for starters. Awesome-Tanaka. Tanaka/Awesome was always the same match, give or take a couple spots. JvP II and 2/3 falls match completely took an already great first match to insanely higher levels.

    I hope Foreman is in that state for good because the comedy potentials are endless.

    Elliot and Taylor would be niche performers with limited market range, Katharine is all looks and is actually below Carrie. Carrie fit Country. Chris is the most packagable name as he could easily carry a radio rock band without the AI name. The Chris Daughtery Band would be a big hit group.

    I hate how she always looks 100x's better in the pre-performence spot and then goes conservative in the performence.

    THIS is the highest ratet show on TV?

    Funk that. I need my weekly Maura fix. Luckily she isn't going to be typecasted for her role on ER, so she would likely end up on another show anyways. ER is living off its name right, and it is designed in a way that it can extend itself for a longer duration. (It's been 12 years now right?). Ratings aren't in the tank even if WAT has spanked them as of late.
  20. Cornette confirmed via ROH that he signed with TNA but will still work ROH and that they won't interfere with each other. I still think it's interesting how one guy is in "charge" of the #2 and #3 american promotions.

    42. #9 in the countdown of boredum.

    Dama is a perplexing character because he tries to hard to get attention for himself and then when he gets it, he bitches because he's being attacked. Has a tendency to derail threads completely. I don't like him nor do I dislike him, I just think he tries to hard for attention. He also needs to stop acting as if ESPN is the only media in the country. I can't even tell alot of the sports people apart because they are all saying the same thing in a circular arguement that spreads over 6 pages and never gets anywhere and it usually involves the same 4 people mass quoting each other. I don't possess a large knowledge of NBA or Hockey, so I tend to avoid getting into those discussions but I can't stand the Yankee and Cub fans who need to investigate every single AB in the game. How many times are we going to go over the "Derek Jeter is clutch!" "Clutch doesn't exist in baseball" debate? I love how the Kobe haters bitch about Kobe getting the attention, when it them who are yapping endlessly about how much they hate him and the media's protrayal of Kobe. You idiots fuel the fire.

    THIS is the highest ratet show on TV?

    CSI, like Leena said isn't a water-cooler type of show. That doesn't mean it doesn't have a fanbase. It obviously has a fanbase if they can produce 3 different shows under the franchise name. Actually, I am shocked that over all these years, NBC never did a ER spinoff. They had countless characters/situations that would have fit the spin-off model.
