...another one bites the dust...
Well, another year gone. I don't really have anything else to say about that.
This is the first time I have posted since my wedding. So, to fill you guys in, wedding went pretty good, we went to Florida and the Bahamas and had lots of...fun. Then we came back to Clyman, got our digital cable, and I went back to work. Did the New Years Eve thing with friends. yadda, yadda.
Digital cable. Such a beautiful thing. The ironic thing is that, even with more than 200 channels, there still isn't anything to watch. It is all still crap. But it does give an opportunity to watch programming that was never meant to be broadcast. There are all these weird subculture shows. Like an entire network dedicated to game shows. Or soap operas.
But my personal favorite of the bizarre subculture shows is called Madden Nation. It is all about a bunch of guys who are in this tournament for people who play the Madden videogames. They travel around the country on a bus, playing tournaments every couple days. And if you lose a tournament you have to leave the bus and therefore lose the chance to win it all and get the money. It is funny because these guys are so serious about the game. They even talk about their strategy during timeouts to the camera. It is really funny. The one guy will say, "I'm going to roll Vick out to the right, and if he's in a zone I'll throw to the tight end, and if he's in man coverage, I'm going deep to the wide-out." Then it will go to the other guy, and he'll say, "I'm going to bring the blitz with both outside linebackers and run a tackle-tackle stunt." I don't think they realize it's just a video game. Itis like they are living vicariously through the playstation. Don't get me wrong--I love Madden. I love video games. But it is still pretty funny.
Anyways, not much else to say. Here's some good information to keep in mind this new year.
Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits.
Chuck Norris does not hunt because the word hunting infers the probability of failure. Chuck Norris goes killing.
The chief export of Chuck Norris is pain.
Chuck Norris ordered a Big Mac at Burger King, and got one.
Chuck Norris is currently suing NBC, claiming Law and Order are trademarked names for his left and right legs.
When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night he checks his closet for Chuck Norris.
Chuck Norris can touch MC Hammer.
Chuck Norris is not hung like a horse... horses are hung like Chuck Norris
Chuck Norris invented the beard. He receives several million dollars in annual royalties from Santa Claus, Richard Dreyfuss, and Chewbacca.
Chuck Norris invented babies because he got tired of eating the same old thing.
We are all but figments of Chuck Norris's imagination.

I'm suddenly realizing—Chuck Norris sounds an awful lot like you. Are you hiding something?
Superkudos to you and Jess. May you live happily until the ends of your lives.
I saw madden nation and was transfixed and entertained by it. I was amazed the the cultural phenom of talking trash. I'm suprised how trash talk has gotten as violent as it has, with hands shaking at the end - lame, over-the-top representation of yourself followed by a token gesture of respect. None of it is real, why even start?
