So there I was, parked in my lazy boy, eating ice cream for dinner (yeah, healthy, I know), and flipping through the channels, when I came upon a Ron White special on Comedy Central. I adore Ron White - he's funny as hell, he's real, and to top it all off, he smokes and drinks on stage. Really, it's impossible not to like this guy. The best part is that Ron doesn't tell 'jokes' per se. Rather, he tells stories and makes you laugh your ass off in the process. Tonight, I was pleased as proverbial punch to hear him tell one of my all time favorite stories about him getting thrown out of a bar in NYC. If you need to have your funny bone tickled, click here for a replay of this classic.
In addition to Ron, Comedy Central is also now airing one of my favorite parts of the World Cup half times - Red Stripe commercials (I personally think the stuff tastes like ass, but these commercials are fun-nee). If you were watching the World Cup, and didn't need the whole half time to pee, you saw one of these. If you think you may have missed them, allow me to jog your memory - Hooray Beer!
In conclusion:
Hooray Beer!
Hooray Ron White!
Hooray idiot box!

Hooray for beer! I'm drinking one now -- what day is today? Ugh. Shhh, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends is coming on....
Ice cream? That's awesome. I've never done that but I once had Cheetos and two bloody Marys for dinner. Then there was that time I had seven large Guiness' for dinner. Ugh, that wasn't pretty. Oh, and just a couple months ago, when a friend was in town, we got together and had a dinner of a half-dozen gin & tonics and some Chex Mix.
As for joys of the boob tube and Comedy Central, I'm right there with you. Although I prefer my daily dose of Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert. You a fan of John Stewart? Have you seen this? It's kind of old -- from last year I think -- but it's an awesome classic.
Thanks for the kind words regarding my jalopy. I had to put in a new transmission and still have a couple thousand in repairs. Motor mounts, manifold, ball joints just to name a few. Sucks. More debt.
More important than that, though, How are you doing with your hypertension and, um, the rest of it? I hope you manage through it well and get yourself into veterinary school. That sounds great. I wish I'd have done something meaningful like that. Shit, being a lawyer would have been more admirable than advertising.
I'm glad to hear that you are a fan of Pearl Jam, the Chili Peppers and the Smashing Pumpkins. You know you mentioned seeing Pearl Jam with the Chili Peppers and the Smashing Pumpkins, I saw that same show. I saw a lot of shows that summer. I look forward to seeing a post for the Chili Peppers, I haven't really been keeping up with them over the past couple of years but I've heard Stadium Arcadium is supposed to be quite tasty. Do you have that one?
I loved your factoid about bars and their proximity to primate centers -- that's hysterical. You know, I worked for six advertising agencies and I can say the same thing, although now that I think about it four seems a little low.
Interesting site. Useful information. Bookmarked.
