Indiana is the dog's name!

[RavingLunatic]

I was umpiring today with my brother, who's 18 years old, and one of the coaches is an old friend of my dad's:

Coach: "So, that your brother behind the plate?"

Me: "Yeah."

Coach: "Older brother?"

Me: "No, I'm actually older."

Coach: "But you both played on the high school team this year, right?"

Me: "No, I'm actually out of high school."


For those who don't know, I'm 23. I think it's cool that practically everyone I meet who doesn't know me assumes I'm in high school though. It makes me feel like my youth hasn't been entirely wasted yet.

I'm pretty young-lookin myself, so people always seems surprised when I tell 'em my age.  I assure them that, as a Filipino, I will age all at once when I hit 60.  Seriously, it'll happen overnight.

On the one hand, I think it sounds like a blast.  On the other hand, I have a wife and three kids and having someone stalking me, watergun or no, doesn't sound like the best thing in the world for them necessarily.

Someday, I'd like to think that I'd have a wife and three kids that wouldn't be entirely averse to me getting water capped by a complete stranger.

Occurred at the end of an online quiz (as a tiebreaker):

Your preference (most true):

Do you feel that the journey of the soul is one of moral choice?

or

Are you tall for your type (male, female, ethnicity, etc.)?

WEIRDEST. DISJUNCTIVE. EVER.

Dude, have we talked about this?  The Way of the Greek Woman?

It was saturated with Mezcal.

Oh man, reading that post first thing Monday morning isn't making my stomach feel great.

Aug, how would you describe the taste of Mezcal?  To me, it tastes remarkably like potting soil.  Just straight dirt.

I thought it tasted like a rusty 1946 Ford pick-up.

Hmm, you must've had the top-shelf stuff.

Very well could have been.  The buddy of mine who bought it for me when he was in Mexico last winter doesn't oftern fuck around.

Robot Michael Jackson vs. Las Vegas

The robot would be the centerpiece of a Jackson-inspired show in Vegas and he's apparently pleased with initial blueprints of the robot. If a giant Jacko-bot isn't frightening enough, they also plan to include laser beams that shoot out of his eyes - yes, laser beams.

I have to go home now. I will be in my room. With the doors locked. Is it hard to board windows?

[Aglaya]

Wow, a baby, huh?  What does one do with a baby?

[Greg Nog]

My mom's in the hospital, and my sister's SO is in Canada for at least the next two weeks, working out visa issues.  Meanwhile, the bastard child of one of my aunts is making a prodigal return to meet the rest of the family for the first time.  My Spidey-Sense is tingling; I feel I may be needed in NH; I'm gonna see if I can get out of work early and go up there for the next day or so.

[das kranke Tier]

All the best to your momz, Greg! I hope everything's okay!

[elpollodiablo]

Much love, Greg. Get on up to NH if ya need to.

[diesel_powered]

What Pollo said.

I hope everything works itself out.  But, yeah, being there is good for that kind of stuff.  Have a good trip.

I'm entirely too stoned for there to be so few people on Last Plane

Also Jordan Michael called me to tell me that he was going to get drunk for the first time.  I actually tried talking him out of it.

[Killdozersnakeboy]

Go Jordan, Go! Do a funnel!

I thought I heard he was hittin' the sauce on the camping trip?

Perhaps.  Because yeah, my mom's in her 50s and she still looks hella young.

And Crissee, you watch a baby.  And play with their feet and try to make them laugh.

Oh, and change them when they shit themselves.

Yes, it's fun.  Well, not the shit-cleaning.  Nor the screaming.  But pretty much everything else is very rewarding.

[Maaik]

Yeah, man, I know dick about little kids.  I was hanging out with my little niece and she was being a little banshee and I was like "wtf?" and Melissa had to explain to be that little kids will do anything to not fall asleep--they get tired, they don't want to go to bed, but they get really cranky and just start screaming.

Man, I had no idea.  The idea of not wanting to take a nap in the middle of the day is foreign to me.

Indiana was no exception, he got tired, so we put him down on the bed and just left the room while he wailed himself to sleep.  It took about ten minutes.

This was seriously my experience at Ikea last weekend. I know it's partially my fault for going to an Ikea at a time other than 8 pm on a weeknight, but I wanted to stab all the idiot parents that dragged their screaming children out when they should have been putting them down for a nap.

[nonotyet]

guys I can't wake up

[Maaik]

HEY

HEY NNY

HEY WAKE UP
