I like how Phil and I are taking over blogworld. Oh well, you posers out there aren’t contributing so we’ll take on the duties of filling your humdrum lives with entertainment. Or boredom. Whichever.

Reasons to ban the MTV VMA’s:
1) Jennifer Lopez winning the Best Hip Hop Video award. Yes I said best HIP HOP video award. Dang and I thought Sisqo winning it a couple of years ago was bad enough. But J-Lo?
2) Nas thinking it’s cool to brag about being on Murder Inc.’s label. And Ja Rule & Ashanti's poor 30's-movie-style performance.
3) Avril Lavigne. Enough said.

Reason why I’ll end up watching it again next year:
1) Jimmy Fallon’s intro. “Fuh-nominal.”
2) Dashboard Confessional winning the MTV2 award and Linkin Park winning the Best Rock Video Award. At least there are a couple of accurate picks in this damn award show.
3) The possibility of watching Eminem kick Moby’s ass.
4) Watching drunk people accept their award. Pink takes the cake.
5) P. Diddy, minus the Cirque du Soleil performers in the background. Definitely a WTF moment.

And I’m spent. Time to move into my new apartment!! Jeff, I’ll be coming into your work on a stretcher come Tuesday, as I’m sure my back’s gonna give with all this moving. Either that or send your hottest therapist up my way to Davis.

~Taft
p.s. People, you’re bursting my bubble here. No love with the questionnaires, man. So far only T-Lam and Phil are on the cool list (naturally), so yall need to get on the ball and follow their cool lead.
p.p.s. Don’t know if I’ll be able to partake in the kickball games since they’re in the middle of the week, every week. But can I just sign up so I can get one of them WAKA shirts. Who wouldn’t want a shirt that pays tribute to the Muppet’s own Fozzie. WAKA WAKA WAKA. Good one ye olde faithful blogger buddy.
p.p.p.s Now I'm spent.
hmmmm...i guess everyone's been busy. no sharing no enlightment no blond momements!!! what the hell happened...where's everyone?!?!?!
~update from work: the surveyors are gone and now i have time to sit at my desk and do nothing...its about time things got back to normal =)

~went to downtown mountain view last night for dinner and i think we should go down there for dinner one day. its so quaint with very nice restaurants and bars there...reminds me of good ole la jolla. AND they have a gelato place there! but make sure there aren't 2 foul smelling dudes there. we went in after dinner to get some yummy gelato but 2 guys where waiting in line and they stank up the whole place. i hope that they just finished working out and not naturally smelled like that but man oh man, their B.O. almost ruined my appetite for passion fruit gelato...i said almost. man was i relieved when they decided to sit outside =)...Bad B.O is straight nasty. yuck. did you know that there's a tree that actually smells like B.O? only at night tho. weird huh?

~VMA comment: i only watched a little of it but it seemed like all the rappers were lipsyncing (spelling?). EMINEM was off like a millisecond on every word. how sad is that! and i don't even think P. Diddy's mic was on for him to attempt to pretend he was lipsyncing...even sadder. oh, and i want wanna those jumping things.

~update on kickball: fall season starts Sept 12 and registration ends Sept 4th. games are on thursday at 6:00pm if you're serious about playing...you need to register ASAP. $50 for the season (6-8 weeks i think) and you get a nice WAKA t-shirt. so no YINGYANG baseball jerseys allowed but i'm sure we'll find other uses for them. check your emails for more detail...WAKA WAKA WAKA

~duh! moment: i didn't know that jabronis referenced wrestling. i thought it was one of anup's friends =). my mistake. so i'd like to change my answer to D for Question 5 tiff b.

~what are everyone's plans for the weekend? anyone wanna play? let me know!

~tiff lam...i need a new nickname since i michelle inherited WAZONK...suggestions welcomed

Tuesday (8/27/02) @ 8:50pm

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL? WHO'S READY TO WIN SOME MONEY?
Well people, with football season fast approaching, I was wondering how many of you were interested in partaking in some football action. Now, now...this isn't any ordinary football game...it'll be more fun...I promise. So here's the lowdown:
I'm planning on buying a football game for my X-Box, either Madden 2003 or NFL 2K3....i'm prolly leaning towards getting Madden. So, I wanted all of us to participate in a little football season of our own. Every week, each person will be scheduled to play another person....just like a regular football schedule. Each week you will play a different person until we need to have people play each other more than once. It all depends on how many people participate! If there is an odd amount of participants, one person will get a bye each week. The games will be scheduled for most likely the weekend (Friday nights to Sunday nights) and will prolly ONLY take 2 hours of your time. You don't even have to watch the other games (only if you want to scout other players)! We'll schedule it according to the two players weekend plans...if a game needs to be played on a weekday, then we'll accomodate as well. I'm trying to make this in accordance to the NFL schedule of 16 games, playoffs, and the championship game on Super Bowl Sunday. For example, Week 1 could look like this:
Fri. nite: Nick vs TAFT
Sat. afternoon: T-lam vs Anup
ED vs. Phil
We will keep track of the records of each player for (hopefully) the 16 weeks. The top players advance. In terms of picking teams, I have come up with some ideas:
1. picking a team through a lottery system and riding that team through the whole season
2. play according to that weekend's NFL schedule where the players get to select a particular game and select the respective teams involved (games will be drawn from a hat)
3. trying to create your own team if the game allows you to
Now, here's the kicker...just to add some excitement to the games. I suggest we all put $20 down at the beginning (which will amount to about $1/week) and the winner of the Super Bowl game pockets the majority with the second place finisher breaking even at least! Now, I can see all the fun and intense competition! Furthermore, I would say we are all beginners at the game (I personally have not played Madden in like years!), so I encourage everyone to think about it...and participate! I also promise to not practice unless others want to...to the point where I'll keep the game at another person's house so as not to gain the upper hand during the week! I plan on starting the games the weekend of Sept. 6-8 or Sept. 13-15 keeping in mind that we'll work around the softball and kickball schedules. So, can you guys get back to me by this Friday? Thanks.
Speaking of kickball, T-lam, you know I'm way down to play! I never thought we would put those uniforms into such great use! Multi-game jerseys!

I beg that you guys all play in SOFTBALL, KICKBALL, and VIDEO GAMES!

Davis, CA 95616

Philly phil phil decides to post a quickie,

yes you all saw Ariel at his corniest on Saturday.. freakin', straddling, you name it Ariel was doing it all to the one and only lamster... boy does he like you... you better watch it girl, he's MINE. *smirks* and just fyi, he's normally not like that... so it was amazing you all got to see him let loose.. which is usually once a month or so.. he thanks all for wishing him happy birthday...

y'all think that the food at the house was good.. mine was yum yum all in my tum.. had some good ass rib eye steak... talk about tender and juicy beef... I had to savor every bite, so I wasn't eating it at full speed like a normally do... and was actually one of the last to finish... heheeh.. we must go there again... hey, but I ain't dealin' with the bill next time *wink*

nickerbacker, were you still drunk off your ass.. you were pretty wasted at skylark... i had to help you through the crowds of peope to the fresh, or quasi-fresh mission air outside the bar. Dang, I didnt' even see your ask drink...

hey aregano - sorry to hear about your car... was your dad hella mad??? what exactly did happen? did you fly up here???

jeffee - I knew that Justin was leading up to someone sporty.. I knew you would fool ms. nosebleed b/c her ass is so gullible to believe anything that has to do or is related to n-sync... =) You need to wear the outfit that your fashion consultant picked... um saturday was perfect opportunity...

anupster - HAPPY BIRTHDAY -- woooh. I got it in today before midnight.. much props to meeh... hope you had a day off work.... thanks again for choosing house.. very nice restaurant...

Christine thanks again for being chauffer to and from the bar... I really appreciate it... that guy was so sleazy on the dance floor, grabbing, or attempting to grope girls that were repulsed by him.. someone needed to kiss his ass...

Tiffy Wiffy - You need to bring a box of tissues with you wherever you go... you should know better than to go into a midterm unprepared.. and worse case scenario, USE YOUR SHIRT.... who cares if its bloody... you could always say you kicked the shiet out of some girl and that's why you're all bloody.. maybe you could get some cute guys that way...or at least bring toilet paper... or you use a tampon (if you carry one).. don't leave the room... and you should kicked the girl out of your chair... didn't u have a backpack or something next to the chair??? poor tiffy..

things to watch on tv this week

tues - american idol
wednesday - big brother, miss teen usa, elimination of american idol
thursday - VMA's,

rest of the week I gots no ideas....

alright I'm out.. see ya!

Bloody Mondays (literally and figuratively).

Monday, August 26, 2002
2:15 PM
The usual hot spot

2 for 2.
Wow. I’m batting a perfect 1.00 here, as I’m now 2 for 2 in the nosebleed-midterm department. Today’s saga: the psychology midterm. Except this time, no arguing with the bigwigs, no 20-minute bleed, no failed exam. I couldn’t help but laugh at the ridiculous situation I was in. How could this be happening again? I went into that classroom thinking, ok let’s just take the damn test quickly so I can go grab a bite to eat afterwards. The worst that I thought could happen during the test was that my stomach would start growling (and trust me, when my stomach growls, everyone from the professor in the front to the slacker kids in the back can hear the monster). It’s déjà vu all over again. It’s Monday, the professor hands out the test, and then the floodgates open. I get up to leave my seat, tell my professor I have to be excused to the bathroom and five minutes later I come back. But it doesn’t end there. I come back to the classroom and some bitch ass is in my seat! And there are no other seats left in the room! My jankity ass had to grab some random chair at the front of the class and take the test. On my leg. I despise midterms. And my nose.

On a lighter note:
Happy Birthday Nup!! Hope your day is going well. Sorry I missed out on the celebration. Packing, moving, and trying to study for a midterm equals a weekend of hell up here in Davis.

0-6
That’s the record of the SJ Earthquakes in their last six away games. Sad isn’t it? Saturday’s 3-0 thrashing by the Colorado Rapids makes we very concerned about their postseason chances. It’s disturbing how night and day the comparisons are between home and road games (btw, they’re 12-0-1 at Spartan). I’d be having a field day with those numbers if I was their coach.

Ugh.
Speaking of soccer, where’s soccer-player hottie? So many pickup lines and no one to use them on.

Note to Jefe: bump into cooler "celebrities". You got me all excited about who this famous Justin was as I read through your encounter. Could it be Justin Timberlake? Or Justin Cheesehead of American Idol? But the best you could come up with is Justin Davis. Of Stanford. Geez.

Note to Nick: Wow, now that was a buzzed blog. You displayed all that I would have expected out of a classic BB – misspelled words and phrases, incoherent sentences and thoughts, and the ability to take up 30 minutes worth of everyone’s time as we tried to interpret your inebriated code. A work of sheer brilliance. I’m inspired to contribute to the BB file soon.

*Days until move into d.o.g.less apartment: 5! Woo, we're down to single digit numbers, folks!
*Days until the MTV VMA's and Justin Timberlake's solo debut: 3

Until next time,
~Taft

SOMETIMES I BLOG SLOW....SOMETIMES I BLOG QUICK, QUICK, QUICK

Here's a quickie for all you.

1. YOU MET WHO? NAA-AH!....ARE YOU SERIOUS!
Well, what can I say....another week...another brush with fame! So, I was strolling out of the Oakland Arena Thursday night after the USA vs. China game and I couldn't believe who I saw. I was wondering what he was doing there, but I remembered he liked basketball and has played it all his life. I had to go up to him and just meet him.
Me: "Hey Justin!"
He looks around prolly thinking who the f is calling my name.
He finally sees me and stops.
Me: "Hey Justin!...Just wanted to say what's up man!"
Justin (not as excited as me): "What up."
Me (not really knowing what to say): "Good luck with everything!"
Justin (shaking my hand): "Thanks man...I really appreciated it!"
We walk off in different directions...he was in a hurry to get out.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, don't be jealous. I can't believe I met a person of his stature! He's much more chill and nicer than i thought! You guys prolly know who I'm referring to already, but for you who do not know....I met the one and only JUSTIN....JUSTIN DAVIS, that is, of the Stanford Men's Basketball team! HAHAHA. Cool guy. First, I meet ED GRAY at the arena...now JUSTIN DAVIS...i really need to be an agent and make $ off these players! I wonder who my brush of fame will be next week.

Reeg - what can I say? I actually don't have a rebuttal right now, but CLASSIC...props out to you my friend. Only you would be able to decode my "HORSE" (not MORSE) code! I guess that's what happens when you have so much free time at work! I better to stop now before I give you more firepower....

"I feel like a pinata...cuz i always get whooped on!" But I still have much sweetness inside!

*yawning
OMG i'm tired. i have never been so tired before...i can barely keep my eyes open.
hours of sleep: 3 but not the good restful sleep...i had the i-betta-not-get-too-comfortable-because-my-ass-will-get-up-in-3-hours-sleep. yeah, it was a hectic nite...trying to revisit my college years but work seriously does screw everything up. i hate work (am i sounding like phil yet?)
~reeg, i told you not to bang on the headboard so much...you're gonna get migraines soon =) and thank you for decoding jefe's blog...i don't think any of us will forget any of those words EVER
~phil when are you going to disclose the answer to the riddles?
~laxatiff i'm working on the kickball stuff...but in the meantime jefe and i are trying to find kickball cages...holla back if you see any around
~jefe thanks for the tip about borders...love them books, books, books

i'd like to add onto phil's appreciation for the continuous blogging coverage. when the day seems long and hard, i know i can read the blogs to cheer me up. thanks peeps...

one love (everyone is using this so what the heck)
tiff lam
After hearing the answer to that riddle...I shall not repeat it...most riddles make me go "aaaahhhhh i see" when i get the answer.....this is more like "WTF?!?!?" Hopefully Phil Diddy (Snup, check the archives--I done called him that a few blogs ago, u can't cop my style) will come up with something clever...

So today I was like Jay-Z and the UGK and was Big Pimpin'...or as my sister likes to say, I be Big Pimple-in'...my work decided to have a day of fun at the marina so they decided to rent out a boat similar to what I think sylv mentioned on one of the pioneer blogs...and it was optional to go, but if you didn't you have to work...let's see: have to work and pay for your lunch...OR not work, FREE food, and better yet, FREE BEER...so technically this isn't a BB...however, has anyone ever drank and have a hangover on the same day?? I swear, I came home, took a nap, and had a beautiful bad headache (not pretty bad b/c it was worse)...needless to say I'ma mellow out in this chapter...

I caught American Idol for the 1st time this week...and they all should bow down to TamYra...I mean, how can you go wrong with a name that begins with a T...ends with an A...has another A at the beginning...and an R towards the end?!? Hehe maybe a couple of you know what I'm referring too...if not, its TACORDA!!! =) (How's that for an inside joke TL?) I am convinced that this show is more rigged than professional boxing...

Jay...I hope you got like a 800 on your verbal section of the SATs...here's my 2 pesos: GENIAL, if you throw a T up in there you'd get GENITAL...INELUCTABLE, take out the "ineluct" and you got TABLE...INDULGENT...FACETIOUS, same here, take out the "tious" you got FACE, and ASSIDUOUS is self-explanatory. Jeff was speaking in code fellas! I cracked it, and it was much easier to solve than Phil's riddle. Me thinks that you want an ASS in your FACE on a TABLE while INDULGING your GENITALS...am I right or am I really right? Let's see if we could decipher his next blog...

Props on the shopping bargains...but clothes are usually cheaper when they're kids sizes haha j/p...does anyone else find it ironic that a clothes designer needs fashion advice? You think Calvin or Donna ask people what they should wear??

Nuup: I feel like this is that episode of Saved by the Bell where AC makes his first appearance...I'm Zack and your that new kid, Slater (Jeff's Screech by the way). And you're entering my world...but I do welcome you, but just remember who ends up with Kelly and who gets the girl who couldn't even get into Stansbury...so all I got to say is BRING IT YO! And you got plans for your birthday (aahhh I see he strategically posted this within a week of his b-day)...

Here's a few lines: for T-Bass-it's imperative that you sit next to him...and since the lab's are AC'ed...be like, "I come in here to get away from the hotness, but I end up sitting next to you." Hehehe that reminds me of a story when my computer neighbor and me were parlayin (parlay = parler = in french, means "to talk)...oh well, save that for later...

Good nite Blogoholics...
Gan-again (let's see who could figure that out)

Thursday, August 22, 2002



It's that time again when my volleyball season starts. I'm so excited for the season.. Only thing that sucks is that I got tickets to a baseball game the first night I'm supposed to be playing.. which reminds me of something.. ya wanna know how stupid I am.. I forgot I had tickets to Tuesday's giants game and I missed it.. How sad is that. .only remember as I was going to be on Tuesday night... crapola.. must be losing my mind...

lately I have done several accomplishments as far as getting stuff done... I had my car in the shop to get the bumper fixed (remember I got rear-ended) and I had my toenail cut again for the last time.. (I hope)... this time they had to burn the nailbed so that it wouldn't grow back...Yes I know I got issues with my foot but I can't help it..

Just a couple other things I'd like to mention... AMERICAN IDOL last night was an outrage.. Not only did Tamyra not deserve to be booted but Nicki is just bunch of crap.. that pink-wanna-be-trash is a disgrace ... she can't belt a tune.. and b/c she had one semi-decent performance on tuesday do they keep her in... I hate this show now.. but I still watch it so that I can see her get the boot...

Real fast. Nup- welcome to our world, where we sit around at our computers waiting for the next amusing post to take us away. A+ on your first entry. San Blogadino, funny. Phil- I'll mail you some hankies as I'm sure you were as teary-eyed as me to watch Tamyra sing her final song and see Nikki sit her lucky ass down in the final three. I knew I should have voted. T-lam, what's the status of kickball, yo. I'm about to buy myself a red rubber bouncy ball to start training. Think I'll hit up the local elementary schools to see if I could practice with them. And Jefe, I want to transfer to another school. Not diggin the S.A.T. words man, I had to look up most of those mo-fo's. And there has to be a commandment banning the use of intellectual talk on this here blogspot, Reeg can you please look into that for me.

Wahoo! The Quakes are in the playoffs! With their 3-1 win over Dallas last night, the Quakes have accumulated enough points to seal the first spot in the postseason. Sweet. MLS Cup, here we come.

Ok now that I got that outta my system, gotta put the finishing touches on my paper before it's due in t-minus 37 minutes. But I'll be back after class to see if hottie soccer-player looking guy is back.

Until we meet again,
~Laxatiff (I refrained from using the monicker Taft, just for you Nup)
7:35am - GOOD MORNING, KIDS!

TAKE A SEAT....CLASS IS IN SESSION
Well, what can I say...blogging is such a GENIAL experience! INDULGENT, Anup finally joined the party and produced a blog...an event that should become more common and not thought of as an ANOMALY. It shows that blogging is INELUCTABLE! Anup, welcome to the club! Everyone's blogs brighten up my day and I must say each is FACETIOUS in its own way and possesses great ALACRITY. And each is fully appreciated! Being that this page only started a few months ago, we must give ourselves a round of applause for the EXORBITANCE of blogs! And to see that many of you blog either at school or at work, it shows that many of you are not ASSIDUOUS...congrats! At this point, I think we can all call ourselves PUNDITS in the world of the blog!

Many ppl have told me that i should become a teacher. So, above is my first lesson. I expect all of you to understand the meaning of all the capitalized words. This is defintiely for your enrichment. Think of this as your WEEKLY HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT.

T-lam, my study buddy: AGGRANDISE your vocab...This is your DAILY homework assignment!

Class is Dismissed!
Mr. Jefe

IT HAS FINALLY ARRIVED !!!!!!!!

Behold, the first official Blog of the esteemed NUPZILA In layman's terms, HERE COMES SOME HOT SHIZNIT! Peep, this is goin down as a classic blog, so read on! What's the deal people? It's me...It's me.... it's that A-N-U-P. How's everyone in BLOGLAND? Dude....what else do you call this forum? Blogville? San Blogadino? New Blogico?

First and foremost, I extend my deepest apologies to all of the faithful bloggers. I admit it.....I'm a non-blog contributor. I only read. The first step in recovery is admitting that you have a problem right? I feel better already. Although, I can't promise that you will ffeel the same after you finsih reading (just playin). I need to give major props to Phil. If it wasn't for Phil, I wouldn't have been able to admit that I had a problem. Hi, I'm Anup and I'm a non-contributing Blogaholic. Speaking of Phil, Phil needs a nickname. A nickname that will stand the test of time. A nickname that will go down in the annals of history as a classic. BY GEORGE I GOT IT! "P. Diddy" Phil D....Get it? Come on ya'll Phil rocks as much Coach as Sean Combs himself. It's only fitting.

Speakin of nicknames...what's a wazonk? Additionally, what's a NAST? Furthermore what the hell is a TAFT? Now if you ask me Laxatiff is off the frame. You can make that nickname work on so many levels. For instance, pick-up lines: ""Hi, I'm Laxatiff, wanna go?" One tip to Regan, drop the Regaholic, it didn't work the first time you tried it hustal! Digiman Dan, no one wants VD playboy, not even those playas hard up for a date.

I had a pretty eventful week thus far. I went to a BBQ with my old co-workers. An interesting topic came up during my unpleasant stay with those monkies. Interracial dating. Someone at the BBQ had a problem that I dated interracially. He stated that I should keep with my own race. He suggested that language, culture and religion are all deciding factors. This person happens to be non-Indian, As always the Showstoppa (another 3rd person reference to myself) stepped in the ring and shut it down like Enron. My rebuttal: You're right jabroni....i don't understand a dayum thing your momma says when we're in bed!

I bought my mom a new whip (car) on Sunday. Her old car sadly passed away last week. I had so many memories in that car. First driving exam , First Christmas Dance, First Prom, First booty call in a car oh wait, Too Much Info (TMI). Speakin of booty, somebody please tell me why girls holler at guys who are taken? Seriously, when a guy is taken...a grip of girls start jockin. I'm startin to issue rain jackets, blankets and coffee to those unfortunate fans in my waiting line.

Next topic: Identity Fraud! You guys should pay very close attention to your credit card statements. Some buster copied my credit card # and expiration date and bought 10 G'z worth of stuff. Luckily I reconcile my account online on a daily basis. Like I told the Credit Card Company, if I find the buster before you do...all bets are off.

Finally, I'm picking out a suit. Not just any suit, a suit for my court trial. Some braud is suing my Company for improper treatment. She feels as though she was "pushed out." Usually I wouldn't go, but she implicated me in her lawsuit since I was a Consultant at the time. I wonder if it's gonna be like that Jay-z and R. Kelly video, "Not Guilty." Hella people outside the courtroom holdin up signs sayin, "Snoop is not guilty." Wait that already happened down in LA with Dr. Dre and Calvin Broadus.

Jeffe-bo-lo-us my sis kicked it with Jay Williams yesterday. The entire Dream Team was at Koret. She saved his used gum for you. I'll bring it over. You can put it in your entertainment center next to the WWF figures.

Aight ya'll...I'll holla back another time. One.
Damn it to all bloody hell. I had my blog all written out, ready to go, and the jankity computer croaked on me. That's twice this has happened. Bloody hell. Let's try this again.

Yawn-town

TV Blurbs:
American Idol - This show's getting addicting. Tamyra blew everyone away with song #2, Nikki just doesn't impress me, Kelly should just have a sing off against Tamyra because the girl can wail, and Justin needs to stick with the slow ballads (although he is quite the little entertainer with his knee-bending tricks. But he's still a big cheesehead). So who will win? Who cares! At this point, it's obvious they'll all be putting their John Hancock on some record deal by the time this is all over. Oh, and Dunkleman is my new favorite last name.
Sorority Life: This one's just plain ridiculous, but why can't I stop watching the damn thing! So the pledges were once again portrayed as (gasp!) bitches as they ditched out of their formal early. With songs like "We Are Family" playing in the background, it's no wonder why. But still, it was rather rude and not the best showing on their part. What I did love though was the most accurate portrayal of sorority girls yet, as seen when Mara and Jordan ditched out on their "dingy" hotel room. What did they expect? This ain't Delta Gamma or the Tri-Delts. No national affiliation and no dough leads to second rate hotel room. And it's SF for pete's sake. But MTV still managed to hook them up with the Westin for their formal and that's pretty sweet.
Recommend: Royalty A-Z on E! to satisfy all your British needs. Who knew Prince William would grow up to be quite the handsome fellow. When he's not showing off his cursed Englishman horse teeth, that is. All I have to say is thank you Prince Charles for not passing your ugly genes down to him. Oh and Prince Harry the pot smoker, that's just bloody fantastic.

Observation: Today's the second day in a row I've seen the same hot guy here in the computer lab (Mostly think he's hot because he looks like he could be a soccer player. Man, I need to stop watching MLS). If he's here again tomorrow for the 3rd day in a row, I'll have to snag the seat next to him. Throw me some good pickup lines here folks.
Can't get enough of: Justin Timberlake's new single "Like I Love You." I anticipate great things from his upcoming solo album. He'll be performing at the MTV VMA's and I'm anxious to see what the performance will be like without his four backup singers behind him.
Needs to go: Nick Carter of BSB. Being the biter that he is, he too will be releasing his own solo debut around the same time as Mr. Timberlake's. It's supposed to have a "rock flair" to it. BSB? Rock? Don't think so. He'd be better off teaming up with little brother Aaron and hitting the local mall circuit.

Soccer Notes:
1) I need digital cable. The English Premiere League is up and running and I have no way of watching any of the games. Who knew a month of World Cup action would turn me into such the soccer whore.
2) The Quakes have a huge game tonight against the Dallas Burn, but I'm stuck here in Davis and not in San Jo rooting them on. If they win, they stay in 1st place; if they lose, Dallas takes over the top spot (which the Quakes have held practically all season long). Go Quakes.

Days until move into d.o.g.less apt: 10 and counting!
Days until midterm: 4
Days until come home: unsure. :-( I had planned on coming home this weekend, but with my midterm and term paper coming up along with trying to get my shit together for the move, it doesn't look plausible. :-( Sorry gang, I really wanted to come home to play, too.

Gotta go write up a report for my boring psych class now. Wish me luck.
~Taft
i'm almost awake...ALMOST
good morning all!
~first thing first...thanks for the tip phil...i'm a slow learner. as to the riddle, i don't get queezy when i sit in the back so i don't know what you guys are talking about. maybe you doofies are just too sensitive! i don't get the joke...but after your comment about psychos only getting it i don't feel so bad.
~to my study buddy: we seriously need to sit at separate tables when we study. its too tempting to just yap away about everything...plus, you can look at girls and spit some of your game without out me around. you should use the hockey stick ones...and get slapped. those were hella funny...its apparent that you've been practicing. HORSE...how funny is that?!?!?
~tiff: i'm glad that you've come to your senses about Davis being yawntown...come down to SF and play with us...put all of us together and we'll be rolling with laughter. thanks for the tip, i must check out this Ty from Trading Spaces...is he Canadian? that would be toooo perfect!
rooms aren't suppose to be clean silly...they're dumping grounds for all the crap you've accumulated during the day! every attempt to keep it clean is futile
~nick: unless you are mentally disabled (highly possible) please don't use the handicap placard if you got a metered spot...just pay the $.50! who is this outsider? am i missing something?
~reeg, don't bend over backwards...just bend over! YOWZERS!!!
~to all: i hope everyone got the email about kickball. so far, tiff, nick, jefe, an unenthused phil, and i make up the team. i'm not even sure if there is a league yet for SF but they said they would let me know. that would be so fun...i can peg people with a bright red ball...counting the days!

gotta go and work!

One other note: for those of you who blog... make sure you hit post and publish... apparently a certain someone had only been hitting post, thinking there was a delay in getting things "published on the blog". Publishing is almost instantaneous and the only way you get it posted is it if another person post and publishes theirs , your post will get published... just fyi =)

*Philly Phil has just finished watching a giants victory as well as american idol*

Yes I will post my american idol recap tonight... Tonight was a weird night... Tamyra started the show with a very off number... I was really scared for her and still am for fear there is potential risk she could get voted out... but even scarier was little miss nicki , wanna be pink, mckibbin who actually sang the best I've seen her... she might actually make it top 3... hopefully everyone remembers how awful she usually is and will vote her out next... Kelly was superb as always she might actually slip through and win this thing... Justin is just as cocky as mr. timberlake... except I think timberlake has more skills.... well...I might have to take that one back...

also, did we mentioned that when we (jeff, lam, and I) were headed back from shopping we had heard commootion above the bart station at Powell.. though we didn't know what it was.. we heard people gasping and looking above... well today I was reading the paper and apparently some guy tried tossing a toddler over the railing onto the concrete pavement below.. how sick people are today... that was crazy.. we could have seen a kid fall to his death... scary thoughts..

has anyone ever thought why there are more abductions than ever?? or are they just more publicized??? I wanna hear your thoughts on that...

I am finally getting my car fixed for the lady who rear-ended me.... how lame is that..

yes, my work is getting HARDER than ever. I left at 8:25 today fixing shiet that the girl who I got the work from couldn't add up correctly... sucks... anyway I'll probably be cleaning up her stuff for the rest of the season.. how sad is that...


since no one has attempted to answer the question of why everyone but the driver gets carsick.. I have another riddle
A daughter is at her mother's funeral... she sees the man of her dreams there...a couple days later.. she kills her sister... ? explain
If you've heard this before, you're eliminated.. for those of you who do, kudos to you... you think like a psychopath.

ok hope to hear from y'all soon!



IT'S COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE OUTSIDER

THE WEEK THAT WAS
I know I had said that this would be a weekly column, but I could not resist the blogging fever. So, I introduce to all of you.....

THE DAY THAT WAS....August 19, 2002 (Sunday)
1. "IS THAT A HOCKEY STICK IN YOUR POCKET?"...."NAH, I'M JUST HAPPY TO SEE YOU!"
The return of T-lam from Seattle/Vancouver brings a smile to all our faces. But my smile got even bigger when she returns with a hockey stick just for me. The hockey stick is about the length from my knee to my foot, or for you ladies, the length of my...oh wait, this is a RATED G blog page! I'll leave it to you all's imaginations, but keep in mind, I'm a HORSE on the chinese calendar! Anyways, it was prolly one of the best presents I've ever received. I'm thinking about emigrating to Canada...and why not? I already know their national anthem! Thanks times infinity, T-lam! And let me leave you ladies with this. Don't be too surprised if you hear the following quite often from now on:
a) "He shoots and scores!"
b) "Damn Jefe! You sure know how to PUCK!"

2. GEOGRAPHY LESSON
Geography was prolly one of my favorite subjects growing up. I can name every capital of each state (not to brag) and I know the locations of many countries. But, I don't think I have ever gotten a geography lesson as the one I got on Sunday...and the teacher? It was the one and only....drum roll please...Tiff's mom! She's pretty funny. Anyways, in describing the culture of Vancouver and what they did there (mainly eat from what it sounded like), the following dialogue ensued:
Tiff's Mom: "Have you ever been to Australia?"
Me: "No."
Tiff's Mom (wide-eyed and excited): "Well, Vancouver is SOOO much like Australia, but MUCH closer." (nodding her head up and down)
We (tiff, her mom, and I) bust up laughing....It was all in the delivery!

3. WHATCHA GONNA DO...WHEN THEY COME FOR YOU
The Fashion Police (comprised of Phil and surprisingly T-lam) is filmed (or should be filmed) on location.
Dispatcher: "Possible Fashion Casualty"
Location: Macy's Men at Union Square
Mission: Apprehend Jeff's style (or lack of it)
A sunday stroll thru Union Square leads the Fashion Police into the department store.
Captain Tiff (CT): "No! He's picking another of those "Jeff's shirts" from the clearance rack....same colors and tones...that's just HEINOUS AND GOD-AWFUL!"
Sergeant Phil (SP): "OMG...Those are the only shirts he has in his closet!"
CT: "That's PRETTY FREAKING SORRY!"
SP: "Psssh...He's a walking FASHION FAUX-PAH!"
CT: "Quick follow me! Mavi jeans for $18!"
SP: "And a DKNY shirt for $22!"
In the fitting room, the fashion police bring Jefe to the floor and put the jeans and shirt on him.
Jefe: "Wow, I like this a lot!" I love the jeans! My arse feels like it's sticking out!"
CT: "You gotta show more ass from now on."
SP: "Nice look....Mission completed!"
Commercial: "I highly endorse the Fashion Police....they gets results (and save money)!" - Fred McGriff
Fade to black. End of scene.

Today's Count
3: the number of MIXED girls that caught my eye at work today
2: the number of those 3 MIXED girls I worked with today (ironically, the one i didn't work with was in the previous blog of mine)
1: the number of those 3 mixed girls who is a fellow (but younger) wildcat alumni
1: the number of those 3 mixed girls who is finally older than me and not too young

IF I COULD GO BACK IN TIME....
I would want to play in the Little League World Series! The games are awesome...the emotions are priceless. The love for the game is out there...no $ involved. Did you catch the Massachusetts team whose pitcher is 6 feet tall and their 3rd baseman is 4'4" tall (The sequel to Manute and Muggsy)? Don't underestimate the little guy...he was a star!

More to come. But gots to watch wrestling and that NBC "meet my parents" or something like that.
Jefe

i'm BAAAAACCCKKKK! damn, all the blogs come out when i'm gone. my eyes are crossed from all the reading i had to do.
so much to comment on...
~vancouver is now my new favorite "chill" city. "half-fun" activity = eating. that was the funnest activity i did. i ate so much and enjoyed every bite and morsel of my food...note to self: need go on a 50 mi hike this week (any takers?) besides eating, i did a lot of shopping and walking. the city is so beautiful with great scenery. scenery = fine guys. canadians are pretty damn good looking. and their hockey sticks surpass all others...except for jefe's *wink *wink. the trip was much needed and now i'm sitting at my desk all refreshed...yeah right! i need to go on another vac ASAP!
~buzzed blog seems to be the theme of the week...sad to say that i can't particpate in that...how about red in the face/passed out blog...i can definitely do that =) i was watching the video tiff made for us last nite and there were quite a few pix of sylv's drunk fiasco. since i didn't attend that one, i think we should have another one. i guarantee that my presence will make it amusing for everyone.
~john mayer is growing on me...i hated him for about a year because i thought he was a dave matthews poser but he definitely has some talent. sylv, hot he is not...reeg on the other hand...hotter than a eating jalepeno fries in the mojave desert! i'm trying...this stuff takes time to master, right reeg?
weekend update
~phil, jefe, and i went shopping yesterday. jefe has hired phil and i as wardrobe consultants. we found a whole outfit for jefe for under $45...damn, we're good! we also played my favorite game when shopping - "Shopping gone WILD!!!" jefe tried on a very sexxxy outfit for me - orange plaid pants with a red and blue pinstrip collared shirt with numbers sewn on it. too hilarious! because of moments like these, jefe and i will start lugging our cameras around...what we really want is a camcorder so donations can be made to tiff/jefe.

that's all from me!

i gotta go get some lunch...laters gaters
tiff lam
A morning blog.

Monday, August 19, 2002
11:33 AM
UCD Campus

Thought I’d change things up a bit and blog in the morning rather than my usual afternoon stint. After a weekend of nothingness, Davis is definitely turning into a yawner. Think I’ll head home next weekend to spice things up. Anyone wanna do something? Please submit comments to the suggestion box below.

How about a serving of the usual random ramblings…
-Hilarious: Jay Mohr on MohrSports trying his hand at Slamball – pure comedy. I desperately want to set up a tramp or two in my backyard at home and give it a whirl.
-Soccer highlight of the week: Watching the big LD take a dive and almost getting into a scuffle with a DC United player in Saturday’s Quakes game.
-Site of the Day: http://espn.go.com/thisissportscenter/sc25k/s/index.html#
Sportscenter has some of the most amusing plugs on TV. What a bunch of sports dorks. Props also go out to Nike’s ad crew. While I do love their latest installment, why does it seem to be playing every five minutes. On every channel.
-Damn hot: Ty the carpenter from Trading Spaces. Just another reason to tune into the Learning Channel.
-Question: Why is it so impossible to keep my room clean. Just days ago, spotless. Now, I can’t even see my own floor or walk across the room without stepping on or tripping over something.
-Days until move into d.o.g.less apt: 12. Still counting.
-Time for class: Now.

much love,
~Taft

BBIII

Yo...here it is...BB3 doesn't stand for Big Brother 3, but rather buzzzzzed blog III, completing the 1st trilogy...good to see sylv back, and contrary to what she thinks, I know who John Mayer is! No, he doesn't run the city (mayer = mayor), I actually have his "room for squares" cd on my hard drive...but really its for a good friend down here who I need to make the cd for =)...and what's wrong w/ JLH???...good to see Phil-diddy trying to fill the void that the Panhandler left...I thought u retired Hugh Jeffner?? (pronounced Hefner), but nevertheless, always a pleasure...and costco's w/ they restuarants indoors do suck...hehehe, we all know how we feel about them mixed girls.....try this line: yo, I have a friend named Regan, he's cool....but if that doesn't work, be like: yo honey, I wanna see if your other sisters are as hot as you...then she'll be like, "oh my god! let me show u a family picture!"....worked for me!!! man, I think I was the first to use that anup/navigation/directions/lost joke...then phil, then tiff....I said it first! you can check the archives...

this should be called a pseudo-buzzed blog...at least I got my 3 favorite drinks: long island and a cape cod...woulda had more but they are $10 each! on top of a $20 cover! it's cool, because there were $20 worth of dimes, and I didn't need no change! (that was a pretty clever line there regan)...to answer tiff's ? about hotter guys in so cal...well obviously the weather's nicer down here, so they're hotter! (oooh corny)....hehehe, plus I'm down here now (oooh dorky)....plus. there's just more ppl down here....and i guess more hot guys are down here to match up with the hotter girls down here too yeah?

Well its about the buttcrack of the night, no one's online, so I shall head to bed....I have my "pillow" waiting for me =) Just remember to blog soon, blog often, and blog when u have nothin else to do! well since i'm sober now, i guess this doesn't count as a BB...well there's always next time!

one love,
the bloggiemonster (like boogiemonster)

YAY JEFFEE AND SYLVIE ARE ALIVE!

After reading their very entertaining blogs I felt inspired to write one of my own (however probably not as entertaining nor as creative, but I try)

To your point Jeffe, Big Brother 3 is quality TV. I love the new Lisa. Manipulative, charming, and a bit sexy is great. I kinda wanted Eric to stay in the house... but he's too machismo... now that Amy has returned back to the house. I wonder how long she'll stay in...a week or longer? Chiara looks like she'll be the next to go esp with her big mouth and the "revolving door" theory. She irritates me at the moment...

Kudos to you Jeffe for getting a costco card... now you can buy everything at bulk quantites at low prices... good luck with the lines over in south city... those are insane....but to your point.. 1.62 for a polish sausage and a drink is a great reason to always come back...

Sylv, I must agree that nicki mcwhateveryousingsooffitmakesmelookgood needs to go... how in the world is she still there...if this isn't a conspiracy I don'tknow what is... poor rj... guess they (america) doesn't like crybabys....

speaking of the san mateo county fair.. how in the world did we (jeff, tiff, nick and I) decide to try to take on so many rides in less than an hour... I think if Jefe didn't start looking green in the face that I would have probably been the first to bow out... after awhile it wasn't the rides that were making me feel nautious... it was the expression on jefe's face (and trust me he looked like he was going to pass out) that made me think i was getting nautious as well...did I mention that me and Nick broke a haunted house kiddie ride... it was so bad.. that the guy who worked the machine had to try to push us through the entrance door (sparks were flying on the floor) and we still got stuck and he booted us off the ride.. I guess two grown guys can't sit in these carnival kiddie cars..... did I mention that I was the winner of two game prizes... Yes I won one in a thro a ball in the pond game and the racing animal game (I don't know what those are called but it's the one where you roll the ball and wherever it lands the animal moves forward every so # of steps).... yes very fun indeed.

speaking of the softball game.. yes the dark side won this one... yeah talk a comeback.... and considering that half of their team was new or at least wasn't their from the first game.. was amazing.... yes jane's sis, deb killed us all...her unstoppable 3rd base defense annihlated a lot of the groundballs... furthermore, we just had some sloppy defensive plays of our own that contributed to several of the runs that the dark team scored upon.... however... I did stop 2 runs from scoring... highlight of the day was Marco's bullet throw to me at home throwing out the ray the train by a step..... maybe catching is my destiny... NOT... my heart still belongs to right field.. did I mention thatmy quad still hurts...(jefe or tiff help!)....this better get healed soon or you won't hear the end of it..

and of course I can't help but talk about work... I cannot believe that I haven'tcomplained thatmuch of work... maybe its b/c work is gettinga little easier for me... however right now they are starting to pile the work onme...not that anyone cares but I will share what my workload now contains... a best value t-shirt program, villlager (owned by liz claiborne), maggie mcnaughton (which is only in 122 stores), la cabana, tapestry, and nine & co... you think I have another national brands to keep me busy.... you will more gripes fromme in the near future.....

lastly..wait actually I'll let other ponder their theories of why people except the driver of a car gets carsick...

once someone answers that I'll post a riddle for all to figure out...
until then... see y'all later
THE WEEK THAT WAS
(Hopefully) A new installment that captures the highlights and lowlights of the past week.

Entry #1: August 10 - August 17
1. THE DARK SIDE PREVAILS (Saturday)
Running out of chances and running into outs, the grey team trailed 17-9 heading into the top of the eighth inning. Lo and behold, thre grey team battled back with timely hitting to prevail 19-17. Yes, that is no misprint...the grey team held the (off) white team to NO runs in the final two innings. I must say (and I think most would agree) that Jane's sis, Deb, was a superstar with her awesome defense and cannon for an arm...and fittingly, catching the last out of the game. Eating at Bull's Head was full of laughs and great food...i can smell a new tradition in the making, even though the bull's eyes are made out of bull's testicles (wink wink...inside joke). With the series tied 1-1, we all await for the return of Ed from the motherland (hopefully with his green card in his pocket and not given away to a girl) to continue this softball series.

2. TAKE ME OUT FOR A SPIN (Sunday)
A little escapade to the San Mateo County Fair with t-lam, nick, and phil left me nauseous. Usually girls have my head spinning, but riding 4-5 rides in the span of like 30 minutes, my head couldn't take it anymore. Luckily, eating time came around (a much needed break), but a deal was struck. The first to throw up or NOT ride a ride, would get a henna tattoo (of the others choosing and design). After eating, I thought i was good to go, but after more spinning, I was the first to bow out. I have a tattoo coming...damn! More lessons learned: a)Cramming 4 ppl into a photo booth IS POSSIBLE! b)phil and I are JUST TOO DAMN DARK...no matter where we position ourselves in the booth c)being the driver (t-lam) can be a good thing even if we get lost. That brings us to the participation question: Why is it that the driver never gets carsick but the passengers do? Please feel free to respond....PHIL will blog his theory in the next couple days.

3. BRUSH WITH FAME (Monday)
I guess there are some perks that can come with my job. I got to treat a famous director (who shall remain nameless for the sake of cofidentiality) who helper write Radiders of the Lost Ark and directed movies like The Right Stuff and Benny&Joon. He is in town directing a new movie starring Samuel L. Jackson, Andy Garcia, and the one and only....Ashley Judd. Who would of ever thought, that she and I would be separated by ONLY 1 degree rather than the usual 6 degress?!

4. HIP, HIP (HAPA)RAY! (Tuesday)
Thank goodness for MIXED girls...another perk of my job! However, I'm wondering if I'm being teased since all the mixed girls who come in are still in high school or soon-to-be college frosh. Anyways, this one girl comes in and I'm working with her. The conversation turns to where she mentions that she has 2 older sisters and 1 younger sister. 4 mixed girls in one family! D-D-D-Damn! All that could go through my head then was I wonder what the family portrait looked like cuz this girl (right before my eyes) was beautiful. So i need your help: what's the best line to use to see a family picture? Keep in mind she's leaving for school soon. How bout, "I'm planning to have mixed children, can I see pics of your sisters to see what my children would look like?

5. JOIN THE CLUB (Today...Saturday)
I seem to lag on things....always two steps behind most of you. Well, I'm proud to say, that I got a COSTCO card today. You know what that means....POLISH SAUSAGE AND A DRINK for $1.62! Now, if anyone wants to dine on such a great meal....just call me up. Hey REEG, that means we don't have to try to sneek in by saying "our mom's inside...we'll go get her." Anyone down for COSTCO trips...just call me up.

Phil - Big Brother 3 is quality TV! I'm totally digging the new Lisa! Drama, drama, drama. "I keep my mouth shut, but my eyes open." Probably the best line from a reality TV show ever.

Who's after Ed? - There seems to be a revolving door with vacationing people. With T-lam coming back...Ed is going out/leaving. Who's next to take a vaction...not me, I''m still trying to build up my PTO hours.

Kinda long, but i needed to contribute again. Other things happened this week, but this is just way too long. I'll have an "Other considerations" list in the future...if it is necessary.

bye,bye,bye

Philly Phil Phil is so excited about the weekend.

So what is everyone's plan for this weekend... I have no idea what I am doing at all.... just wanted to see what people's ideas were if they wanted to do something... as for some follow-up to people bloggers

tanned tiff - yeah I watch American Idol, couldn't believe the punk-rocker chic has still not gettin kicked off.. I can't believe it.. she so sucks.. she is so not final-four material.

Reganator.. good one on those tiffany chain letters I'm sure to send those right away...

Jeff - have you been watching big brother.. I can't believe Lisa didn't vote for Eric to come back to the house.. guess she has a whole new strategy towards the game... big mistake in a way.. but I guess that should save her a couple more episodes... I really hope Danielle and Jason make it to final four they're awesome and Jason's cute.

Michelle - how was the rest of your vacation up here? what did you do? did you find the full house place???

Sylvia - where the heck are you.. are you ALIVE??

Ok that's all for now... I'm at work I need to show that I do some stuff here.... =)

This is the Tiffany Chain Letter.

If your name is not Tiffany send it to a Tiffany that you know. Please add to
the list if you like.

If your name is Tiffany you must send this to 20 people every time you get
this email or else:


1) Your breath will smell like horse shit.

2) You will develop very nasty toe jam.

3) You will be cross-eyed. And if you are cross-eyed already, your eyes will
be so cross-eyed that you will only be able to see the inside of your head.

4) You will grow a hump...........on your leg.

5) Your ass will swell so big that you will have to drag it behind you. (Can
you picture that!! Damn that's a big ass!!)

6) One of your arms will fall off, or you will grow a third arm.

7) You will grow a pimple on your nose so large that your pimple will have
pimples.

8) All your children will look like midgets on crack.

9) Your Head of Hair Will Fall Out!!! Well, all but one hair in the center
of your head.....and it will stick straight up no matter how you comb it.

10) The rest of your hair (like leg hair and underarm hair) will grow thick,
so thick you will have to cut it with shears.

11) Your dog will get cockroach size fleas. But only if it's name is Kalua
or any other name spelled anything close to that.

12) Your lacrosse stick will break.

13) Your Carmex will go bad. Especially for Tiffany's whose ears stick out.

14) Your driving will IMPROVE..........but only if you can make right turns.

15) And my last but not least consequence for those Tiffany's who do not send
this email to 20 different people: You will gain 600 lbs (that is equivalent
to 12 chins, 5 spare tires, thunder AND LIGHTNING thighs, a ghetto booty the
size of the ghetto, and flaps of 100% pure lard, minus one neck)

Add additional consequences here :







If you send this to:

1 Tiff: You will win the lottery

2 Tiffs: You will meet your dream mate

3+ Tiffs: You are taking this too far!!!

Davis, CA 95616

Hola mi amigos! I have returned, surburnt and darker than ever, from the land of SoCal. Wow, quite the blog action while I was away, took me a while to read all of them (more so because I have the reading speed of a 10-year old). I think we should all take a road trip to SoCal and crash at Regan’s. Any volunteers to plan it? Highlights from the trip included some family bonding time via waterpolo games, waterballoon fights, and extreme dodgeball (which I’ll have to teach you all how to play one day) and shopping in Pacific Beach. It was nice to just get away from Davis for a little bit and just relax on the beach.

*Reeg- Way to go on the 1st ever buzzed blog. I’ll be sure to follow your lead and post my own shortly. I have to agree with Ed in that you’re getting a little paranoid. Smokin the dank along with that beer there sir? Thought so. And re: the pee stains – they get underneath the toilet seat when you fellas lift the seat up to do your thang. Unfortunately not all you guys have the best of shots, so that’s probably the answer you seek.
*Phil- You’d be so proud of me, I finally caught an episode of American Idol last night (wait, do you watch that show? Or is it just big brother and the mole? I get all your frikkin reality shows mixed up). That Justin fellow is a big cheesehead and the multi-colored hair girl should have gotten the boot. I missed Sorority Life this week, anything semi-interesting happen?
*Christine- My mom thanks you for the friends and family cards. I gave them to her because I was out of town the weekend they were good, and she went on quite the shopping spree.

I wonder if Anup just hasn’t blogged yet because he got lost again. :-) I just hope you’re not out there somewhere posting on some other dude’s site. And how come no one’s written about the softball game? I want to know what I missed out on, so someone gimme a play-by-play. Did anyone take up my suggestion and make a scoreboard? And why can’t I see the pictures up top? Blogmaster Sylv, we need a little tech assistance here.

-Sweetness: Amoeba on Haight St. kicks ass. Bought myself four fabulous cds before the trip - to satisfy my punk needs, a little New Found Glory and Box Car Racer, some sensitive rocker music via Dashboard Confessional (my fave of the four), and for kicks, a bit of Lenny Kravitz on the side. Sweet.
-Question: Why are the guys in SoCal sooo much hotter than the guys up here in Northern Cali???
-Impressive: The U.S. Men’s National Team moved up in the FIFA World rankings, slipping into the top ten as the ninth ranked team in the world. For a country that lacks much-needed soccer support, that ain’t too shabby.
-Days until I move into my new d.o.g.less apartment: 16 days, 7 hours, and 3 minutes. And counting.
-Quote of the Day: "We got hosed, Tommy. We got hosed." -Davey. I just can't get enough of that commercial.

Until next time,
~Taft

Philly phil phil post another blog

Ok regan, i should have posted a blog but nonetheless I had no creativity in mind when I wanted to write.. However some of your thoughts have insired me to write some of my own.

to your points:

Pee stains, have no idea never really had one.. if i did somehow pee underneath a toilet seat I would have known and wiped it clean... so I'm not sure what you're talking about.. as far as a John... who knows? good question.. anyone else know?

someone who forces themselves to poop stuff out is probably called a person with a high metabolism.. and a really sore ass after shitting it all out...

whammy! when is that show??? what channel??? I want to know so I can tape it!... big bucks no whammy! STOP!!!!!!!

vagina monologues.. I still haven't seen it... I'm so lagging on it.. I know its funny just haven't had the funds...

regan you should know that NIck is definitely going to answer any A's question you throw him no matter how hard... even if he didn't know it he'd find it... tsk tsk...

I definitely agree having some type of brainteaser might be something for people to ponder on...

also out of all your lines 1 and 2 get the axe.. #3 is quite entertaining however..

now to the rest of you guys in case you guys maybe have no idea what to write here are some topics that I at least find interesting

SYLVIA - where are you? have you stopped writing??? since you now write for lucky magazine.. have you forgotten us???

JEFFE - i know you read this so where are you at? how bout posting about the san mateo fair and uh maybe the nausea we all felt....

NICK - how bout an update on the a's.. and their progression? or how bout chandra rubin, how did she ever win that last championship

TIFF - how was your San Diego trip.. what did you do there again?

CHRISTINE - tell us about your moving experiences? How does it feel to be back home again? how's gap doing???

STEPH - do you even read this??? are you there??? i have yet to hear any word from you on this blog...

EDMUND - so you're headed to china... how bout getting me some good dim sum and bring it back.. heheheh... I know you can check the internet over there... keep us updated if you can.

LAMSTER - i know you won't be blogging till next week cuz your ass is on vacation.. we'll miss you till then... once you get back you better post something cuz I know you did something at least "half-fun".. hehehehe

ANUP - do you read the blogs. I thought I gave you directions on how to navigate through.. I can remind you if you like =)

REGAN you need no inspiration... so I have no need to give you tips... =)

hopefully this makes up for me not blogging..


PHIL

T-minus 70:33:and fewer and fewer seconds........I leave for China friday morning and barring imprisonment by the Red Guard for my capitalist ideals I shall return on the 4th of September. I will do my best to fit in with the natives and will try to bring back something for everyone. Please feel free to submit written requests for any and all illegal goods originating from the land of the Orient because it's just way too hard to guess what you guys would want. Here are items set for procurement as of today.....

1,287 pirated dvds
49 Folex watches
51 Phrada purses
10 furry hats (The ones with the communist red star in the middle.)
7 mail order brides
11 Shaolin monks
2 chinese finger traps
16 rickshaws
331 pyrotechnic explosives
a panda bear
4 ninja machine guns (I thought Ninjas only used ninja stars but apparently I was wrong.)
the Wu Tang Clan
Communism

If you desire an item not listed above, submit a written request to ECP no later than Thurs. 2:30 p.m. (It'll be the last time I check the Blogs)

During my absense, please direct all questions to my official representative and director of public relations, Shinjo. He will answer all of your questions promptly with a bobb of his bobble-head as he will be my only liason in the city. Please notify him of any softball games because he'd be more than happy to fill in as a sub. He prefers to play center field but can aptly fill in at first base as well. Also, he'll need a ride to and from the games. Oh, and whatever Shinjo tells you, don't go out partying with him after the game. Last time he just got way crazy. Not cool. Bobble-barf all over the place.

Not that you cared, but.........

I need a name for my starfish........as of now, the only nomination for a name has been Dog. I don't know about a starfish named Dog, but at the same time it looks more like a Dog than it does a John.

I think Reeg's becoming paranoid.

I thought Great America was the best place ever until I went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium for the first time since I was like 7.......instead of buying a house, I'm just going to buy that place and sleep by the jelly fish exhibit. Only problem is the constant sound of water might make me pee in bed.

In the event I never return from China.........I leave all my worldly possesions to the sole custody of Shinjo. In the event he is unable to uphold the duties pertaining to ownership, all possesions will be divided between the people most important in my life...........my fishies: Bubba, Tigger, Cigar, Secretariat, and Dog.

Did you know a dolphin's favorite activity is sex?
ECP

ps- Is that why Miami's football team always suck?



Are yall plotting against the reegsta or something? First all, I did not receive a single signed Commandment form, so what I'm I supposed to think? Any society or group needs a governing body that needs to be regulated like Warren G and Nate Dogg. So using article I of commandment IV, I shall post again. Let's see...in the past 7 days, I have accounted for 60% of the blogs including this one...where the party at?? Because it sure isn't herrre! I even gave Phil a lil incentive...the next time someone posts a quality blog I'll put new pics up! I know some of you are anxiously awaiting Jeff's new solo...and those group shots...and did I mention Jeff's new solo? Was there like a blogquake up north? I feel a conspiracy theory. Guys, I'm sorry I couldn't make any of the games!! Please forgive me...now can yall post? My ranting made me forget the initial purpose of my post...which brings up a point: You don't need a purpose! So let's just venture in the mind of a _____ person...

Regan's Thoughts (I'd put random in between but that would be redundant)

1. How do pee stains get underneath a toilet seat? And how do they appear like near the knob on the bottom of the toilet? And do girls read when they're on the toilet? And why do they call a toilet a John? You know how some people look like their names? Like, yeah he looks like a Tony....did someone say, "yeah, he looks like a John"?
1a. If a girl throws up everything she eats, she's called bulemic. And that's an eating disorder. What if someone just forces themselves to poop that stuff out? What's that called?
2. Instead of a job, I was thinking of just appearing on game shows. Anyone ever see the new Press your Luck? Its simply called Whammy...Its all about timing yall. I figure if I could win like $5K a show, do one show a month, then I could make $60K and work only 12 days in the year! I could be on Street Smarts, Supermarket Sweep, Friend or Foe, etc...and they always have casting calls down here...
3. I saw some parts of the Vagina Monologues...some students put it on down here while I was in SB...it was a real entertaining show...thank God for Vaginas!!! Hmmm, maybe guys should do the Dick Dialogues??
4. Remind me not to ask Nick another A's-related question. Thanks for the insight however. Didn't think I ever could fall asleep reading a blog....j/p playa!
5. Maybe this site needs to be more interactive...like have a puzzle solving thing. Or maybe yall thought of that already. Hmmm, where's the love?

So I told this girl she smells, but to make up for it, I gave her a choice of a few lines....TL, would these work?
Girl u smell so good, talking to you gives me aromatherapy.
Girl u smell so good, perfume should be made from your sweat.
Girl u smell so good, even your farts give off a pleasant aroma.

Yeah? Let me know, signing off for now....

one love,
reganager (<----- a palindrome! cool as the other side of the pillow)

barely awake...
i think its pretty freakin hilarious that reeg is the one who comes up with these commandments when he was the one that went AWOL for a couple of weeks. pretty self-righteous but we forgive you.

now to the nitty gritty of the commandments, I and IX are contradictory, reeg - you explicity told us to be funny (I) and then you tell us that blogging's sole purpose is to inform (IX). wha?!??! next issue, i graduated from HS and college and i don't know sh*t about html stuff. i've been trying to learn (so i can post the 3rd Floor Softball Game) but my brain starts to hurt and my eyes get crossed and i want to throw my computer out the window. so gimme a break! drunk blog huh? good idea only if i'm not the drunk one. sensitivity is not allowed?!? well, that's just insensitive you jerk! besides that, i have no other issues.

hopefully, by tomorrow i will be able to figure out how to post our pix from sunday. i've been trying to figure out my damn camera and i have been reduced to actually reading the freakin manual...god damn it! so pix will be added soon...don't worry i have a sexier pix of jefe for those who just can't get enough of him

for any of you interested in vaginas i HIGHLY recommend you go see the Vagina Monologues. The original playwright, Eve Ensler, is performing in it until Sunday and i implore all of you to see it if you can. educational, emotional, political, and outright hilarious...didn't know there were so many words that refer to the vagina!

~song stuck in my head: suddenly seyemore...is standing beside me....
~days until vacation: 3 woohoooo!!!!
~hours of sleep last nite: 4
~i will forge ahead with great alacrity as i study for my GREs...yes, i'm still on the freakin A's ...only 300 more words to go

alrighty enough of this stuff
wazonk...self-proclaimed nickname for tiff lam


*Phil sits at desk eating a big mac meal*
12:35 pm

regan, you sure know how to spice up a blog.... I was thinking who really should have access to post on here??? Should we start having friends of friends post on here?? Should everyone that's on the softball team have access to post??

anyway other thoughts...
anyone watch the real world lost season??? I heard it was dumb... tell me all about it

american idol - how could they have let christina christian go... she was so cute and pretty and she could sing.... how annoying is that...

big brother 3 - I can't believe the couple is going to go down.... hehehh Eric or Lisa, who do you think??

I know no one ever responds to those so I guess I should stop mentioning it...

oh well whatever's clever... I can't wait to see if Bons hit's 600... I hope its today in the 5th inning... if he does, I win a luxury box for a year. =)

wish me luck

THE 10 BLOG COMMANDMENTS:
(not in any particular order)

I. Blogs must be funny, or must show an attempt to be funny. The purpose of this is twofold: 1. if a fellow bloggee laughs, then mission accomplished; 2. if the bloggee doesn't laugh, (s)he would then laugh at how lame the attempt was. It's a win-win situation!

II. Blogs must make fun of someone/something/some group of people. Bonus points if the fun is directed at another blogger. True some people are easy targets (Jeff, Tiff, Jeff) while others are more difficult (yours truly). Also, self-deprecation also counts, so self-blonde actions are also included.

III. Sensitivity is not allowed in the Blog world. If one's feelings are hurt, then you are liable to lose your Blog posting privilege. This commandment correlates with the above mentioned one. So bring it on.

IV. While its good that people post often, some people don't post enough. To alleviate this, I implement this rule: bloggees cannot post back-to-back blogs. So if you post a blog, you need to wait until someone else posts before you post again. However, if more than 72 hours have elasped, and you really must blog, then this loophole can take into effect.

V. Learn the basic HTML. We all have access to the format and pictures. Since we are all high school graduates, we can figure this technique out. If not, then you're not worthy of posting. Guys, I'm getting pretty tired of seein Jeff's arse, no matter how sexy it is.

VI. The comment section should be used if you haven't blogged in over a week. A little blurb shows us that you're still alive and have interest in our world. Wallflowers also should utilize this handy tool. Clever lines can be said in a line or two.

VII. There should be the Drunk Blog, or even the Buzzed Blog, maybe once a month. This means if you're a lil intoxicated and can make it to the Internet, then post! So whether its one-half of a Corona (Jeff, lil'ler Tiff) or something else, then posting is required. Alcohol lets out true feelings, and we have nothing to hide! And no, although it may have seemed like it, I haven't posted drunk yet in case you were curious.

VIII. A nickname must be used to sign your entry out. Its even better if you nickname yourself. We know who you are, but your nickname yourself, it could show another facet of your personalities. And we all have personalities, albeit some more dryer than others, but its still a personality!

IX. Don't ask if you're Blog is interesting/entertaining/uplifting/spiritual/life-changing/etc. However constructive criticism is recommended, using commandment II as a vehicle. The purpose of the Blog is to inform. It is basically an online public diary. And diaries aren't necessarily funny. Did Marcia Brady laugh when she reread her diary? No she didn't. Mr. Belvedere also didn't laugh. And when MTV show's its Diary, its not funny, but rather informative.

X. Do your best to spread the word to other folks about this site. The more the merrier. It gets pretty repetitive seeing the same 8 people post. Since he's probably lost, someone show Anup the directions on how to post. Lil Valerie can't use Australia as an excuse no longer. Be like Kelly Robbins and use your motivation techniques!

Follow these commandments and our Blog will go down in history. Amendments can be made using the 2/3 rule. If you abide by these regulations, please print out a copy, sign it, and email it to regantacorda@yahoo.com. If you don't agree, you suck, but you also can forward me your reasoning and an open discussion can be scheduled. Thank you.

Regards,

Regans (just wanted to use a little alliteration there, commandment VII is waived in this case)

Where I always am, Davis

Back-to back days of blogging, haven’t done that in a while. And for anyone tired of just reading my stuff, well too bad cause I’m gonna post my random thoughts anyways. :-)
*Comments on MTV’s SL: Wow, that blonde chick Candace is a biznatch and a half. Mackin on your pledge sister’s (ugly) man and trying to cover it up by using the “I’m drunk” excuse. Slut. This show is killing the reputation of Davis and California girls in general.
*Recent confirmed realization: That girls really are quite the catty bitches toward one another.
*Sweetness: Found a website that sells DVD's of highlights from the Cup, most notably one solely on the U.S.’s run through the quarterfinals. (ECP, you’re probably the only one other than myself who may be interested in this. Check out reedswain.com).
*25: Number of days remaining that I have to live with Veronique’s damned dog, and counting (Sylv, my apologies for him tangling you up and nearly tripping and killing you. Damn dog).
*Recent show I can’t get enough of: Tony Hawk’s Gigantic Skatepark Tour. Fun times.
*Phrase of the day: “Ha, you’re so moded.”

It's nap time.

Back in D-Town

Current thoughts fluttering through my mind…
…Feel gross, ate too much for lunch, gonna be sick.
…Softball is not my cup o tea. Way too much standing around. Gimme a stick so I can hit someone.
…Props to the White team on their win. As with all things in the world, whitey prevails. :-) Good luck to both sides next Saturday. I’ll be in SoCal cheering you on in spirit, err I mean with spirits in hand.
…A+ to the crafty jersey-makers. By the way, did yall use a hot-glue gun or fabric glue for these (please don’t tell me you used the old school elmer’s glue). The jerseys are gonna need to be washed at some point but I don’t wanna ruin the fine craftsmanship.
…Somebody, please make some kind of makeshift scoreboard for the next game to minimize the arguments about the score.
…I give a big C+ to this past weekend’s MLS All-Star game for 1) not having the full ’02 U.S. World Cup team in uniform playing and 2) for hosting it out on the east coast, bad weather and all. Shocked was I when I left the game for a few minutes to come back and find a yellow-haired Donovan running about the field (ABC televised last year’s game to compensate for the long rain delay).
…Paulino Rubio (the next Shakira-wannabe) sucks ass, a big fat F for her performance at the All-Star game. She didn’t even perform her radio hit "Don’t Say Goodbye." And get this, after the rain delay, to keep the sponsors happy, they shortened the first half to 30 minutes (normally it’s 45) just so she’d have enough time to perform at halftime. Dumbasses.
…Should I or shouldn’t I watch Sorority Life tonight. I fear that if I do, I’ll be subject to yet another dumb blond moment (in the past few days, I’ve come across four people from the show. Too bad the cameras are long gone).
…For any fans of HBO’s Def Comedy Jam, Walmart (of all places) has a sweet DVD box set of the show. I got it for my bro for his birthday and he was quite the happy man.

My butt hurts from sitting on this jankity computer seat for so long. Time to bizounce.

nick's notes....

it's way late at the moment, and it's a week day - and i'm just now getting home from the sweat shop. so when we play baseball, there shouldn't be any complaining about the jerseys. b/c there was some serious sweat that went into the making of the jerseys. and since i just read REEGMAN's blog, and i saw he had a question regarding the elephant emblem for the A's....so i feel it my responsibilty to inform as quickly as possible. it dates back over a hundred years, to the early times of the american league's exhistence. since the Athletics are one of the original teams of the american league (which came into existence in the year 1900), they were representing the american league in the world series vs the giants (members of the national league) back in 1902. well, the nl was a much older league than the al with much better players and thought much higher of themselves (similar to the nfl compared to the afl when the afl first came into being - until the jets beat the colts in the superbowl). and so before the world series john mcgraw (manager of the giants) dismissed the A's with contempt, calling them "The White Elephants" (white elephant refering to department stores which would hold white elephant sales at the time - which would be sales when they are just getting rid of their junk which they no longer have room for, his metaphor for which the american league was in his eyes) - this led to Connie Mack (manager of the A's) to come up with the idea of presenting gifts of small white elephants for the giants when the A's were introduced for game 1 of the world series vs mcgraw's giants. and then the elephant was adopted as the team insignia and they put the elephant patch on their uniforms. the A's then went on to defeat the giants - just as they always do (note: the season series this year in which the A's won 4 of 6, or more importantly the last time the giants were in the world series before being given the boot in a four game sweep - note how the A's have won 4 world series titles since moving to Oakland in '68 while the giants have zero in a much longer history (almost twice as long) in san francisco). but the A's didn't always use the elephant as their insignia....when the team moved to Oakland under the ownership of Charlie Finley in '68 they used the donkey as their insignia b/c team owner Finley had a pet donkey named Charlie O, and so he rode into the town of Oakland on his donkey and changed the team insignia to the donkey. along with the donkey insignia the A's did other things differently such as the innovation of the white baseball shoes and colorful jerseys, they even used gold colored bases before the rules committee banned this inovation. so i hope that this informs u enough. if not i'd be glad to further clarify and elucidate more for u.
