So what!?

Yes, you got it, I'm 26. No big deal. Nothing important.
And if you didn't know then yes, it's today.

Thanks all for the emails and ecards.

I knew they were coming, but somehow they still make it all feel kinda cheesy. I'm not at home, I'm not in my own routine, so having a birthday right now is alien. It's distant and unimportant.

I'll celebrate when I get home. Hmm. Now there's an idea.

4 weeks, everyone. I think.

"A Hangover You Don't Deserve"

Tired?
Hung over?
Wondering why your upper lip itches curiously?
And since when are the hottest chicks the ones with moustaches?

Confused?
If this is one of those mornings where all you remember is a pulsating disco light and some vague flashes, then let Uncle Jono help you retrace your steps!
From the get go, Jono was there with his trusty digital camera, putting the Best of the Best in charge of taking the wildest pictures imaginable.
If you think you were naughty or nice, raunchy or randy, wild or weird, check Uncle Jono's photo album right now!

Bottle of 409 Surface Cleaner & a roll of Brawny Paper Towels -- 5.98 at Trader Joe's.

'Nuff said.

What's that in my underpants?

Feces, because I'm s%&$ing myself scared reading what some people seem to be writing. For instance:

"Corporate Social Responsibility is pernicious, a 21st century Trojan horse designed to destroy free enterprise from within. Fortunately, some corporate warriors still understand that businesses dont have social responsibilities; only people do. And inasmuch as corporate leaders work for business owners, their legal and moral responsibility is to pursue the best interests of their employers interests that relate primarily to making as much money as possible while conforming to the laws, regulations and ethical norms of society. "
--Henry I. Miller and Nick Nichols

Yay! Corporate Warriors fighting the Evil Green Army come to destroy us with Communist Weapons.

Thank you, brave fighters in the name of Free Enterprise. I just felt the air get a little cleaner, now that your shareholders aren't farting away in anxiety.

Your side, my side, and the truth...

Hey guys...

So Israel's pulled outta the Gaza strip. BIG news, sure. Three months old.

And here's an interesting editorial on what's happened during that time.

Now here's the thing. I've watched enough FOX News, Palestinian propaganda, and Israeli news to know that with a little bit o'tweaking, any story can be made to look one-sided.

So what's the other take on this CNN report? I have a sneaking suspicion we're not getting the whole picture from it.

Get back to me, I'm curious.

I don't care what you think, babies love video games

Nathaniel arrived in LA tonight. We went to pick him up at the Greyhound station in Hollywood.

Apparently, everyone in Vegas was broke, so they decided to go home today, back to the West coast.

So the 5-hour express bus took him 8 and a half hours to get to LA.

So after a long chat we sat down to play on the XBOX... I mean, come on. I needed a sparring partner.
After about an hour, Mitch came out with little Zoe and gave her to us to watch for a while. She really enjoyed watching us play Halo 2 together -- I guess she likes war movies -- but just didn't want to go to sleep no matter how hard we tried.

So yeah, little Zoe is a born gamer. She kept trying to take over my controller. Oddly enough, she was even better at shooting the crap out of viscious aliens than I was. Nrrf.
Let's see if I can convince my dear old cousin to take a road trip with me, instead of going off to San Diego to be a construction worker. At least, for a little bit. Hey, everyone -- if you're reading this, send him an email and tell him to stick around for a bit. L.A. is too big and lonely for my taste.
