I'm In Love

You heard me correct, I am in love - let me shout it from the rooftops! Her name is Lindsay Czarniak and she has no idea who I am. Lin, as I like to call her, does the sports report on NBC4 Washington, my local NBC affiliate. Anyway, she is smoking hot - money, money, playboy bunny - and she is so enthusiastic when she is reading the teleprompter. She can make the Nationals losing another game a wonderful thing! I think this girl actually enjoys her job, a rare treat in this day and age. Did I mention she is a smoking hottie, she could be telling me about women's ping pong and I would be glued to the screen. Lindsay, you had me from hello!

Summer 2005

Well, unfortunately summer 2005 is winding down, only a week or so until Labor Day, the unofficial end of summer. The weather will still be pretty sweet here in DC for another month or so, but mentally it just isn't the same after Labor Day. It has been a great summer, I've done a lot of fun things, gone a lot of neat places and hung out with a lot of cool people.

Back in April I was hoping we would have good weather this summer and we have indeed - am I a master prognosticator or what! Last summer it seemed like it rained every freakin' weekend, but this summer has been totally different. It has been hot, but not too hot. I tend to like the heat anyway. I will take 96 sunny and humid over 27 with snow and wind any old day. Now if we could just make it so we don't have any snow this winter, that would be money! Come on Global Warming, do your thing!!!

E-Harmony?

Have you seen those E-Harmony ads with the white haired, old man talking about the 29 dimensions of personality or love or something like that. Every time I see that I think two things too myself. 1) Who would take love advice from this creepy old guy, he has pedophile written all over him, and 2) Who has 29 elements to their personality? I think I have like 4 dimensions, maybe only 3. I can see someone having like 10 or 12 dimensions, but 29 - come on now, give me a break!

Back to School

Well, it's August 5th and the back to school ads are in full swing. I am soooooo glad that I do not have to go back to school. I always dreaded when the calendar turned to August growing up, because I knew my summer was winding down. I still feel the same way today, even though school is no longer involved. We are over the hump now and there are only so many more days to soak up the rays - I gotta make them count!!!

I will say the Office Max back to school ad with the "Rubber Band Man" song is pretty damn catchy though. It woud be a blast riding around town on the back of a shopping cart handing out pencils and notebooks to all the kiddies. The best part would be seeing the dejected looks on their faces when they realize it's time to hits the books again. Yeah, I am a dick, I know.

Random Thought

When I was in vacation in Maine last month I went to the 40th Annual Yarmouth Clam festival. It was tons of fun, but the one thing I didn't understand was that there was no Al Cohol (Thanks, Brad Paisley) for sale inside the fest. Now I know that it was a family type of event, but you couldn't even buy a plastic cup full of Bud Light. (Not that I would pay money to drink Bud Light.)

The thing that irked me about this deal was that in Maine, you can go in any grocery store and buy liquor. I am not taking wine and beer, I am talking the good stuff - Captain, Smirnoff, Jack Daniels - because most big stores have liquor licenses up there. It just seemed odd that there was no Al Cohol at the fest but you could walk into Shop n Save 2 blocks away and buy a bottle of Jameson if you wanted to. We ended up doing the old hide it in your coffee mug thing, so it all worked out for us in the grand scheme of things.

Don't even get me started about New Hampshire, they have rest stops with liquor stores in them! "Come to New Hampshire and get liquored up while you drive" - good idea people!
