pic fixed......

*the blogmaster*
*****back in Gap Land......*****


THAT PICTURE IS HUGE......but thanks reegs for fixing the bloggie......

random thought: isn't it amazing how mucha salad can fill you up??? i'm trying this new healthy diet thingy and i never realized how full i could get off a salad......those burgers they be grillin right next to the salad bar still look yummier than ever....*sigh*

BAY TO BREAKERS!!!! yes, folks...it's that time again....and of course, there is no volunteers to run with me....anyone, anyone???bueller?bueller?? C'mon people...this is a FUN RUN...not a marathon! when else do you get to run behind a wall of fat naked middle aged hippies drinking beer at 8 am??? as long as it doesn't rain (like last year), those 7.5 miles will go by in a flash!

"i do yoga and pilates and the room is full of hotties...."

well, not MY room....but I have invested in the wonderful world of pilates.....it's kind of a power yoga, if you will....and it's great! they do some crazy excersises that feel so silly but you don't realize how much of a workout you're getting.....

RANDOM SI SIGHTING

well it's a sighting and an encounter/hang out in one......but sadly, it isn't someone from class of '97, so i don't know how exciting this will be to all of you. This fellow wildcat IS the older sibling of a fellow '97 wildcat.........by the name of Gino Pucillo....remember him? anyhoo, i hung out with his older bro, Dan, @ El Rio in the Mission last week......cute and charming....he was fun to hang out with. The other guys we hung out with that night were also '94 wildcats...but i don't remember their names...

more random thoughts....

OK OK, i admit it, i want to go to the JT/ Dirty Girl concert........a.k.a Justin Timberlake/Christina Aguilera concert.....anyone else wanna try and find tix?

anyhoo...going bowling tonight....@ presidio bowl....you are more than welcome to stop by and bowl with me...... =)

PEACE OUT!

syl

Hope yall r happy for the time being...please submit any other pictures deemed appropriate to me for consideraton...

GO SPURS! Tony Parker made People's 50 Most Beautiful People list...I guess Tyrone Hill got his spot taken...

GO KINGS! Don't the lakers wish they still had van exel?

GO KIRSTEN! She's hot...I think the Fireman will pick her (that's his self-given nickname according to 97.3)

GO RUBEN! Clay simply cannot win. Look at him and his expressions. And regardless of what Michelle Yuson may say with my liking of this show, do not believe her. She is trying to sabotage my rep.

GO MILLIONAIRE! Not Joe, but that guy left in Mr. Personality (I honestly don't really watch this show, I just caught a slight glimpse of the last episode.)

GO SURF GIRLS! Just make sure they don't surf near Yoel. (I hope yall know what show I'm talking about b/c then it wouldn't make sense.)

GO CLARK! If you saw this week's SV, you'd know what I mean.

GO 2 SLEEP!

one love,

Just wanted to chime in and vote in Phil's little poll real quick...
Bachelor: I want Jen to win just because she seems a little nicer and more genuine. But I think Kirsten might win it. Is it just me, or does it seem like there's little love between the bachelor and these two women? And did you catch that reunion special? That was some good entertainment. Why was psycho Liz ever cast into this show in the first place?
American Idol: Are you kidding? RUBEN ALL THE WAY!! Everyone better vote for him. I swear, if Clay wins it, I hope Ruben and his brother sit and squash elf boy with their "205" asses. Clay belongs on Broadway, not on the next American Idol cd cover.

Hell yeah! The Lakers lost.

Heads up. I've got two announcements...

1) NEW EMAIL ADDRESS. I changed my email address, so the tgbasilio@ucdavis.edu and ucdlax5@aol.com addresses will no longer be in service. Please direct all admiration letters, hot guys' phone numbers, and Landon Donovan-related material to me at
tgbasilio@yahoo.com

2) SAVE THE DATE: 5/30. I'm having a "I'm finally leaving Davis so let's all get our drink on and write a group buzzed blog" party on Friday the 30th. The exact party title is still a work in progress, but for you guys, that should do. It's actually gonna be up here in my apartment in Davis on Friday night, May 30, so that leaves you all plenty of time to mark your calendars. Come one, come all. Spread the word.

That's it from me. Can someone please post another picture up top? This blogspot's looking a little drab without the photo love.

~Taft

*My Kim L is gone* *Sighs*

Ok, So if any of you watched tonight.. you saw Kimberley Locke ousted from American Idol.. All I have to say is that I really hope Clay does not get it... if I have to see that Opie-look alike from Raleigh, I think I will have to barf... but in any case..

Regan, you're thoughts of my subliminal sex messages were right on target... Don't u realize I do that on purpose???

My head spins now at work.... They have decided not to promote me at work until there is more job stability at my work... apparently there are 20 analyst positions open at mervyn's (any takers who wants jobs, there are plenty at mervyn's)... and they are having problems keeping them filled.. so once again Phil gets jacked in his pursuit of happiness at work...

I went to my sidekick's wedding last Saturday.. Beautiful wedding in Santa Clara... the reception was held in a tent nearby where they had hors d'ouevers and an open bar before dinner... The whole ambiance was very elegant with pottery barn/crate and barrell placesettings w/ a green and silver theme... in any case, I"m glad it didn't rain b/c otherwise we would have had to walk around in muddy grass...

Tonight I went to my old org's banquet... I must say that they were very impressive and I see reflections of myself and my friends the years we were there... I miss those college years where all you saw where your friends and just went to school... it was so much easier then...

I also went to see Better Luck Tomorrow a couple weeks back... did I mention that it is a pretty good movie... You have to see it....

Ok I'll write again soon.

Whats up Yall,

I mean, weren't you guys tired of this picture anyways?? SORRY SORRY I tried messing with my own site, but I ended up tweaking this one...on accident. It's not the fact that I wasn't in that picture, so let me quell those rumors before they even start. I tried one evening to fix it...but I was like 3/4 asleep and didn't really focus. So maybe next time...

TUESDAY should be renamed MANDATORY TV watching day...good thing that I have TiVo...whew I wish I could stay planted in front of the tube eating bon bons....but I have to work, so I'll miss the beginning of the SAC-MAVS game...the 2nd half is what counts anyways. Tonight also should mark Kim's last night on AMID...please guys vote for Ruben...it's imperative that he wins and not CLAYKEN. Then there's the LAKE-SPUR SHOW series going down to the wire...GO SPURS! Speaking of which, do yall remember the Spur Club from like 10 yrs ago? They were a group of boys who competed in popping the most cherries...would've been hard to keep track of that u think?

Lastly there's the part I of the 2 part season finale of SMALLVILLE...as another great season concludes, we have the summer to speculate what's goin to happen in Season III...please check your local newsstand for the current issue of TV guide, where KK (LL) graces the cover...too bad its a small formatted magazine =(

Tiff BB: If you recall the rules, it was "Buzzed Blog." Not "totally off my rocker head spinning burrito craving at 4am damn she's hot maybe I'll get up 3 day hangover i can sang! blog" There is a subtle difference...maybe we should add an amendment to it...very entertaining though =)

Phil: I may have a dirty mind, when when Phil types "Phil posts a quickie before heading to bed," I don't think of his blog. C'mon guys..Phil is sending sexual subliminal messages.. "quickie?!" we ain't talking about chocolate milk. "HEADing" to bed? Can it be any more obvious?

Sylv: Good to see u back...even though u always ignore me online...you're still my friend. Remember, I'ma size 10 in BR shoes! But u have plenty interesting ideas that we should plan on pursuing. I've never been camping before, and would love to experience the outdoors not on a golf course...didn't yall want to go on a boat? Or did u do that already? Fill me in like Craig David...

Came back from LA on Sunday nite after driving down Sat morning....suffice 2 say it was pretty hectic, but it was worth it to see my bro graduate from UCLA law school....not to mention the breezies down there...hehehe JUST PLAYIN'....Goin to Vega$ for Memorial Day wknd...holler if anyone's down...aight yall, get back 2 work, because the reegsta has to...

one love,
reeg

You ever drink so much that....just kidding. Not to worry, I'm sober this time. So what's new kids? I'm hella bored up here in Davis. I can't wait to get home. The only thing stopping me is my banquet with the team, followed by an afterparty. Another buzzed blog? Hmmmm....after reading the insanity I came up with last time, I'd go with a no on that sequel.

So what's up with the missing picture at the top? Who's the thief?

Hey Tiff, how's the kickball action going? We need a play by play up in here. Phil - nice followup on another wildcat alum. Guess Father Nejasmich was right when he called our class the "dog with fleas" of the school. And I can't believe you passed up Restoration Hardware to stay in the plus size department. Jigga whut?

Yay for Ruben. I've got almost all his performances on the show on mp3. I just can't get enough of him.

How excited was I to catch old reruns of ESPN's "The Life" on ESPN Classic this week, especially since they included the one featuring Landon Donovan right before the World Cup. Eerie that I had mentioned that world cup in my drunken blog. Eerie.

Adios amigos. Time for bed.

Hey all,

*Phil posts a quickie before heading to bed*

I must say that I'm totally confused about work... I just declined an offer to go elsewhere to Restoration Hardware and am now waiting to get promoted here at good ole Hayward... And the chances look good.. I just hope they release me out of worst sizes .. oops I meant Women Sizes... but in any case I'm keeping my fingers crossed.... Did I mention that I am annoyed with the guy that I train??? He's so unprofessional and has the maturity level of a high school kid... Me and another analyst are helping with him on something and his phone rings and decides to answer it... so we just stand there while he talks to the person... ridiculous.. and then when we continue to explain.. he gets frustrated.. locks his computer and goes to lunch.. what a lamo!!!! Not to mention my sidekick Roselle is going off to be married on Saturday so she has 3 weeks of vacation... now who can I talk sh*t with at work now??? ugh!!!1

In any case I watched American Idol tonight.. a big tossup on who can go.. I think any of the 4 are vulnerable... I hope it's still Josh though....

See ya later
GO GIANTS!!!!!

hey there 3rd floor peeps....

yes, i have returned to the land of blogspot. after a year, i finally have the time during my work day to sit down and blog! geez, i love desk jobs!

Update: sylvia is now a member of the GAP army....just like Christine!....i am now part of the Banana republic: Shoes Merchandising team. The main perk: I get every pair of shoes for the upcoming seasons in my size! That's like 30 pairs a season! watch out imelda....

nice job tiffy with the drunken blog.....i'm still not sure whose drunken blog was better: NICK's or TIFFY's....i think tiffy's was much more obscene ("i like fuc") but Nick's was simply shocking. Kudos to both of you.....the drunken blog lives on....

you know what i've been missing lately? all those nights of excessive drinking at each other's houses....Regan's bday party reminded me of that...we should definitely try and do a monthly/every other month house party.....like the good ol' days....i mean, bars are fun and all....but you end up spending so much money....and then you have to DRIVE home?! no thank you.

so since my days at GAP have begun, i've had a lot of time to think.....here are some of my random thoughts:

let's go hiking/camping! now that the weather is getting somewhat decent again.....we should plan a day with nature.....

rockclimbing!!!

GIANTS are 21-9!!!! so you know what that means......time to go to those games! Sorry, nick, but the A's aren't doin it for me right now....

is someone going to have another BBQ soon? Lamster's BBQ rocked......i don't think i've ever eaten that much food in my life....

let's go to one of those all day/outdoor concerts....i'm itching to listen to some good music and enjoy some good weather!

my tennis racquet is getting dusty.....anyone down for some tennis?

ok, so those are my recent thoughts.....cube-jobs are great but i think you get more antsy and want to take more vacations....or do more activities....

back i go to my cube......

Ciao!

Phil posts a quickie..

Has anyone been watching the news... did you hear about the 2 surfers who got in trouble with the law for beating up a 3rd surfer at fort point in San Francisco... well one of them is our very own fellow SI alum Yoel Gorfain.. read it here.

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/news/archive/2003/04/30/state1924EDT0158.DTL
(thanks Christine for the link)
Crazy Sh*t.. I guess not all of our fellow alums are such the "greatest citizens"
tiff, you are freaking hilarious!!!! i commend you! if i ever got that drunk, i wouldn't be sitting in front of the computer, i would be puking my guts out...EVERYWHERE i hope you have recovered from your drunken stuper since it has been 3 days.

thanks for the reality recap phil...i can't believe trenyce got booted! i didn't watch the tuesday episode but everyone must of sucked since rueben and trenyce were the last two. goodness, the drama!!

to answer the questions previously asked. no, i will not go to the a's game. a's suckey donkey butt. and yes, i would love to play softball again but no more sweatshop activity please.

another reason not to have kids, especially girls: little girls are wearing some skanky clothes these days. all thanks to britney spears and her nasty self. how did i come to this conclusion? i am a little embarrassed to say this but i went to the avril lavigne concert last nite and i think i was the oldest "fan" there who didn't have a kid. so many little girls running around...i felt ancient. anyways, the girls were wearing tall ass boots and low ass jeans with ity bity shirts. geez, i would kill my daughter if she ever walked out of the house like those little hoochies did. and this was at avril's concert!!!! can you imagine what kind of hoochies the britney spears or christina a's concert would attract?!?!?!!? god help us all =)

anyways, today is DeezBalls first kickball game. so excited!!!!
