I've spent far too much money this past week. This comes with going on almost every night...on freakin' week nights, no less. Tuesday night it was Beer Appreciation Night at BJ's...which I must say I have a healthy appreciation and respect for the power of mead. That stuff is as strong as wine with a much worse hangover. Last night, a friend from school was back in town from New York so we headed to Hooters. I have to say, I'm not that impressed with the talent on display at this particular Hooters in West Covina which may directly coincide with the fact that it's the most well lit Hooters in the world. I felt like I was in the supermarket or something. Let's just say that everyone looks better when the lights are dim so I'm not quite sure what this restaurant was trying to accomplish.

We watched the Lakers get punked by a bunch of white guys from Utah. That was rather amusing...it was kind of like watching the ending of Hoosiers. Go Jimmy Chitwood! Afterwards, we went to go visit our bartender friend No-Guns. He works in a bar that has a kareoke night pretty much every night...so my prayers go out to him for his sanity. Since my buddy Al from New York is technically a broadway singer and was actually in Les Miserables, he couldn't resist joining in the festivites. Since I had a drink or 4, I ended up joining him. I'll never turn down a chance to sing Baby Got Back. We sat around listening to all the bad singing until they closed, at which time Jimmy, No-Guns and Al decided to go to Commerce to play some Texas Hold'em. And find a prostitute...well, at least, that was plan B I suppose. Me, I have work, dammit. Plus, with all the money I've spent this week, I can't even afford a whore...at least, one that won't infect me with ebola or something. Either way, here were my links for the day.



Well, now that we got all that frustration out of the way regarding Bushitler or whatever we're supposed to call him, let's move on with the links.
Hehe...I suppose this guy must be from Jesusland. Maybe he's a fan of the Chronicles of Narnia.

I guess if you can't afford the cream, this is horny goat weed is second choice. Funny, I'd expect something like this to come out of China.

Speaking of Asia...Jon, didn't we play this guy in that asian basketball league?

If this happens, I'd invest in a bomb shelter and 6 months of dried food. Armageddon can't be far off.

It's nice to see our homeland security doing their job...I guess. Still, what do you expect from a Canadian?

I missed piling on Ashlee Simpson...hmmm...that's a thought, but here's something slightly amusing in that vein.

See, when you're poor, you're crazy. But when you have money, you're only eccentric.

I, for one, am grateful for this comprensive listing of Donald Duck's family. Ever since Ducktales, I can't tell how they're all related to each other.

You know, for an animation studio famous for their artistry, you'd think they could do better than stick figures.
