2009's Little Leaguer of the year.

What a great kid. "Can I just hit this next batter?" He has the makings of a future Boston Red Sox.

Scared Bear

This clip may make you laugh, it may make you very angry. The zoo keepers are trying to help the bear to find it's animal instinct and wild nature. I think it just straight up shit itself instead.

Mike O'Connell - a comedian I need to check out

I came across this hilarious video on you tube this past week. I can not stop laughing and watching this. I did a few google searches on Mike but found only a couple Kimmel appearances, which where hilarious.





Here is another clip of one of my all time favorites, Mitch Hegberg.

Jake is a PC....

A Funny or Die take on the new PC commercials. You know the ones where they send out some schlub to Best Buy to buy a computer that fits their needs. Pretty much they look at a PC, then a MAC, trash the MAC, check out and given cash in the amount in the cost of the PC. Finally someone out there is now being truthful about their PC needs.

Things I liked today....

Apparantly John Daly is a Rick Rude fan.




























ESPN had a "technical difficulty", so did my pants.





Finally, a THANK YOU to Artie Lange.

Artie, from the Howard Stern show, was on Joe Bucks new HBO show last night and he put Joe in his place. Personally, Joe ranks up there with Joe Morgan and Tim McCarver as guys I can not stand to listen to while watching a ball game. Here is a clip.

Cheap lunch eats - PiZZA - Pasta Brioni to Go

So today a co-worker tells me he is craving pizza. One thing I can not turn down is pizza. Looking for someplace cheap and close to the office I remember about this Italian resturant that has a to-go area. So we go there, hoping for a cheap but delicious slice of pizza.

We get to the restaurant, the place looks is clean, and we were promptly greeted. On the menu there was no mention of slices. I ask and told they did after the counter girl asked the kitchen if any slices were left. I order two cheese slices with a fountain soda and told $3.89 please. This could not be right, 2 slices and a soda for under $4, what is this 1987? Sitting there thinking either the pizza is old, the slices are small for that price how good could it be. Well the pizza slices were HUGE, easily 1/2 of a 14" pizza. Now the taste test, looks good, smelled great, and tasted was delicious.

A link to their menu , they also have daily specials. Defiantly go to this place if your looking for some cheap and delicious lunch eats.

How not to go off-roading

So after a trip up to Hebert, AZ to enjoy some snow and the company of friends, we decide to first hit the strip club up in Payson. Its 11am on a Sunday and because we were still a little intoxicated from the previous night we think everyplace is still open, YES even a strip club. Well it was closed much to our surprise. Speaking of Payson, AZ congrats to the high school team. 3A State Champs! They have nothing on Nibb High!!!


Back to the off-roading. After multiple attempts to find an open road off of the highway we come across one. Things are going good, the road sodas are tasting better than ever, the rental H3 is tearing up the terrain. Gaining confidence by crossing several small creeks/washes, Mr. S. gets cocky and starts to drive down a wash. He stops, looks around informs us we are stuck. Great, we are in the middle of nowhere in a wash with rain fast approaching. We get out get unstuck but only bury ourselves deeper. Standing around we are looking to eachother for answers until we hear gun shots. Mr. S decides to walk towards the gun shots we hear and while me being hungover and lazy decide to sit and watch the vehicle sink.
After 30 mins to an hr. Mr S. comes back with a few rednecks looking only for a payment of booze, we were in luck because we had a cooler full. On the first attempt to pull us out, they now get stuck. Now were all there waiting for the wash to rise and sweep the trucks away until two jeeps come by to get us both unstuck.

We had the rental h3 so stuck it took two jeeps and a truck to pull us out. Looking back at this day it may be the best of 2009. We went from thinking we were in trouble to the satisfaction of getting out and knowing more beers were in our future. Can't wait to get the next rental stuck!

1st Spring Training game of 2009


So it is finally here, the best month to live in the Phoenix area. SPRING TRAINING! On Friday 2/27 we went to watch the KC Royals play at Scottsdale Stadium vs the SF Giants. I really could not tell you who won the game but I can tell you about the beer, ticket and food prices. We got our tickets online through mlb.com. Being this was a Friday game the lawn or general admission tickets were $13 before the $2.50 print at home surcharge and add on the Ticketmaster surcharges it came out to be $18 give or take a dollar. I had also ordered March 17th tickets to see the Brewers vs the Giants in Scottsdale and the total was only $11.50, go figure.

Once getting there I made the mistake of bringing along two of the same tickets, but the usher was cool and let me in. First stop, ATM. Second stop, beer! Beer prices are usual $7 for a 16oz bottle, they were cold it was warm and the sound of PLAY BALL was a few minutes away. Went to right field and watch Randy Johnson warm up with Molina with some catch. After some "talent" scouting, it was on to the crows nest out in center field. From there we watched 7 innings of baseball had a few sodas and a hot dog ($5.75). Since there were no more beer sales after the 7th inning stretch it was time to walk over to the Blue Moose in the Civic Center, followed by the Coach house. (Coach house offers burgers and dogs at the price of a donation) Here are a few photos, sorry no photos of me on the ground after I took a spill on my way home.

This is my favorite stadium to visit for a game in March. A 5 min walk from work, a 5 min drive from home, a lot of scenery at the game, and a comfortable stadium. Next up Dodgers at Cubs 3/6.

Ebay is addicting and I cant ride a bike


After a weekend where of debauchery that started with me riding then falling off of my bike while riding home after a Spring training game (yes I had several soda pops at the game) , I am just getting around to this blog thing. Still too busy to add anything other than to let you know EBAY is addicting, since adding my first item for sale last week I never realized how easy it was to make a quick dime. So now I am hooked. Some photos of the spring training event last Friday will be up tonight.

My first post - NINE WORDS WOMEN USE

Because this email was received as I just set this up, I am sharing it with you, along with trying out this blog stuff. More to come...

NINE WORDS WOMEN USE

(1) Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
(2) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

(3) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.

(4) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!
(5) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to # 3 for the meaning of nothing.)

(6) That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a woman can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

(7) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause here - This is true, unless she says 'Thanks a lot' - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say 'you're welcome' . that will bring on a 'whatever').

(8) Whatever: Is a woman's way of saying F-- YOU!
(9) Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's response refer to # 3.
