Staph among the Staff

Warning: If you want your ass blown out, keep on reading.The Staph virus has broken out at work. Since I'm a lowly desk-jockey, I haven't been filled in on all the details. I did catch wind of this on Wednesday via a phone call from a patron whos doctor told her she had contracted it from our pool. Call me crazy, but I thought this announcement to merit an immediate relay of information to my supervisor Big Daddy D (Yes, that is what we will call him.) Big Daddy D is a cool cat. He is a fun boss to work for. The only other cool boss I've had in my short span of bullshit jobs was ironically the most credible job I have had to this point: The video coordinator for Baylor Football. We'll call him Jumbo. (We actually did call him Jumbo, look that shit up, naysayers.) I have digressed from my point. So I immediately go seek out Big Daddy D to tell him the information I have just recieved. He is on a treadmill running his daily 3 miles, which is his 2nd of 3 daily workouts. (The name ...

Stephen Colbert is to politics what Steve Irwin was to wildlife. You flip on the tube. Let's say you see meerkat manor. If your not one of the x amount of absolute tools who watch this show, then 1) your subconsious probably makes a comment between neurons about how gay a meerkat is (However duely noting that Meerkat is one hella-cool word) and 2)Proceeds to filter to your waking consious which immediately turns the channel. What made Steve Irwin so different? Why was it fun to watch compared to immitators since his death? Why? I'll tell you why.1) Viral Approach to WildlifeOne of my favorite stand-up comedians, Gabriel Iglesias, probably put it best:He said that he gets upset when people on television talk about him now saying "oh it's such a loss for the nature community...he did so much for the nature community." No he didn't. He didn't help nature.. the guy was crazy. He was like..."Hey, look right there. It's a rare silverback gorilla.. and a beaut too! It's got the most...

My Work Day
2007-10-16 14:38:00
5:13 - I arrive to work late from Tyler, probably smelling of ciggarettes and cologne. I'm sleepy.6:31 - I have just now woken up. My brain is still not on a functioning level right now. I can't really blog my most thought provoking ideas. To be continued...7:46- I am now ready to begin my day. I love this job. I only really zoned out for a couple and a half hours, but I did manange to recover a couple thoughts.I work Monday, Wednesday, Friday from 8-11am. Tuesdays and Thursdays (and some MWF's) I work 5-11am. Naturally, you would assume I like MWF best, however this is not the case. My favorite days go in order: Sunday, Saturday, Payday, Tuesday, Friday, Monday, Thursday, Wednesday.Some good things about being at work in a Gym at 5am? Well how about the regular customers. I love seeing people I know and see everyday. Another good thing is that for some reason the ladies teets tend to nip more in the early hours... I think it has something to do with the moon. Finally, I love Tue...

This time last year I would have never thought I would be starting my own blog. But thanks to a good friend who has truly inspired me, I thought to give it a shot. No more monkeys and bananas here. Well, maybe in the future, but to now there are bigger and better things to speak on.Dr. Maya AngelouLast night I watched the documentary series ICONOCLASTS, featuring comedian Dave Chappelle and Poet Dr. Maya Angelou.I was flipping through the channels, probably to find my regualar programming of either one of the ESPN's, Comedy Central, TBS, or if I'm really desperate MTV. ( on a side-note, It's really sad what has become the perversion of MTV) Anyways, the Chappelle mention caught my eye, and I had heard of Maya Angelou before, but I knew nothing of her. The more I watched, I was taken aback by the stories and life of Dr. Angelou. I payed more attention to her than to Dave Chappelle. As a matter of fact, Dave Chappelle payed more attention to her than to anything else. When you see ...
