Randy Newman was just one The Colbert Report (7 min segment here). I looked into it just a minute and found out the song I thought he may have written just for The Colbert Report was actually quite old... So without further ado, Randy Newman circa 1972.

There are actually rules???
So I stumbled across this on Digg and thought... "seriously?"
www.shotgunguide.com gives you a compiled list of rules for calling shotgun when going to a car. I would like to draw attention to the details that are laid out for the rules of shotgun. Ro will be glad to see there is even a Special Needs clause:
This inspired me to look up a few other car rules such as Padiddle, and Kiss the Ceiling. I was never a big one for Padiddle, but Kristy Cunningham and Liz Brown taught me Kiss the Ceiling when I was a Sophomore in High School... Rewards I've always heard for kissing the ceiling was "10 minutes good luck," "10 minutes better sex," and "a good luck avoiding a ticket." Oh, and I almost forgot about Punch Buggy (aka Slug Bug).
Finally for your time wasting pleasure...

Top 20
So Breyn was nice enough to give me inspiration to post. She IM'd me a suggestion of a topic and I thought it was a wonderful idea. So here it is...
Top 20 Reasons Why Breyn is Awesome!
1. She has a great dane, and it is huge.
2. She introduced me to ITI (my druggie summer camp).
3. Uhhh... she helped me with pranks at ISU.
4. Ummmmm...
5. She's the only person named Breyn I know.....
6. ....
Dammit, that was a HORRIBLE idea!
So things that have happened since my last post:
I rearranged my furniture and got all new movie posters: framed, covering my living room. In no particular order I've got Swingers, Army of Darkness, Kill Bill, The Crow, Equilibrium, V for Vendetta, and The Boondock Saints. (I was going to link all of them, but lets face it... Scott's probably the only person who would click the links, and he can look it up himself.) So that and framing some of my photography work makes my apartment look pretty nice.
My printer (year and a half old) junked out on me. It was starting to print lines in the pictures, so I cashed in on my service plan and got a brand new printer out of it... Service plans on printers and mp3 players are a must.
Speaking of work, we're hiring some new people for the seasonal rush. If anyone wants a job, say I refered you and I get $100. A guy that I knew from Model Illinois Government just started at The Buy, so that was exciting.
Speaking of politics, we're still in a crappy war... so that hasn't changed... BUT apparently NAMBLA has had a drastic increase in numbers that hasn't been seen since the great Catholic Revival of 2002. Yeah... so that happened...
Oh, and to end on a SUPER happy note. In about 2 weeks, Ro will be student teaching in Springfield for the remainder of the semester. Let me say this again, for the first time in our more than 2 year relationship, WE WILL BE IN THE SAME TOWN!!!!
That's Awesome. I love her.
