"What is going on?!?"

That's the tag line from my all time favorite "reality show" ever: The Joe Schmoe Show. I hate reality TV, but this was so much better. The people you hate, are actors and the one guy who doen't realize it's fake, is the nicest guy in the world and everyone loves him. In my opinion greatest reality show EVER. I'll admit my reality show experience is quite slim. I say my first episode of Survivor this year, and was captivated only 'cause of Stephenie. But I missed the next episode and she was apparently voted off, so I've now sworn off the show for another 10 years. And other than a few scattered episodes of "Blind Date" that's all I got.

But anyways, the reason for the title... Quick update. I've got two potential jobs coming up next week, and I'll see if I can work them both out. So I can be a receptionist during the day for the Bunn Corporate offices and work at Best Buy part time. My credit card bill says it's a good idea. I go for a drug test for Bunn Monday, and my interview for Best Buy is Saturday night.

The interview sucks 'cause Ro is coming home this weekend. So I'm driving up there tonight and will see her like 9pm tonight to 2pm tomorrow. But if that's all I can get, that's great! So yeah, I'm gonna be leaving soon for that. In the meantime: Has anyone ever heard of "Auctions 4 a Cause"? I'm not endorsing this website, 'cause I don't know the story with it. But it's definatly interesting. I expect it very well could be legit, I just don't know it for sure yet. Have a great weekend!

Rob and Sex Symbols

Nothing recent really triggered this, but I thought I'd cover it anyways. I'm starting to believe there's a misconception about me and my female tastes, mainly that I have some sort of ethnic fetish (for lack of a better word). So I'd thought I'd dispel that right now. I do not find Lucy Liu very attractive. There, I hope that clears it all up for you.

Alright, so maybe we'll go into more specifics. So it's true that my 2 serious relationships have been interracial, but I also don't think anyone would argue that both have been two of the nicest people, and both were/are beautiful. But just how some people prefer blondes, I have very distinct ideas of what is beautiful for many different ethnicities. And I would never be able to put it into words so lets have pictures do all the work.

I hate Paris Hilton - these two not hot. They make my skin crawl. They are the kind of people who I wish Darwinism would have weeded out long ago. Britney Spears Circa 2000 - Hot. Ahh, the good old days.

Kristin Kruek - Way Hot. Its true, I'd watch anything she was in just because she was in it. Lucy Liu - Don't really care. I prefer big Disney eyes. Like Kristin (or my girlfriend of course).

Angelina Jolie in Tomb Raider - not hot. Her lips freak me out, I don't understand the draw. I'm mean, its not as bad as Stephen Tyler, but still... Jessica Alba in Sin City - Hot.

This girl from the movie we watched last night - Hot. Uma Therman from movie last night... eh. She's definitely better looking than Quentin.

Jennifer Love Hewitt I always thought was kinda rat-faced.... pointy head and such, Lindsay Lohan I never cared for and she now looks worse than ever, and Michelle Rodriguez scares me.

So yeah, that a summary of my views of today's pop sex symbols. Anyone else got any sex symbols that you just don't understand? Ones where you just don't see what the fuss is all about?

Interracial Fun!!!

So I found this awesome link on the internet, where if you have a good head shot of yourself you can do some crazy things: The Face Transmorpher. So the way I figure it, this goes against my theory of interracial kids being the most beautiful... 'cause if that's what Ro and I's kid would look like... ugh...

Also, here's a Hilarious video clip. The trick of it is, which Scott and I were discussing earlier, I don't think people will go to it if I just link it, but I don't want to say anything about it 'cause I might ruin it. So here's a funny skit that has to do with our topic of the day: Funny Clip.

As far as job updates, I went and spoke with the floor manager of Best Buy yesterday. Looks like I might get a part time job working there. Its my understanding that their part time help often works 45 hours a week... lets face it, I need the cash. And I could get discounts! So you now all may offically have an "in" at Best Buy.

But yeah, that's all the craziness for now. Untill next time!
P.S. I've got some pictures up on the Eurolog. Posting next chapter of that today.

The Sound of Slowpitch

Let's see, what have I been up to lately? Well, I donated blood at a blood bank. I've gone to the batting cages with Josh, Tim, Allyn and Scott. But most interestingly, I've been heckling things with Scott and Tim. I went to see Josh play in his Christian Slowpitch Softball League. We all had favorite players, like the guy wearing Chicago Bears Jersey with the sleeves ripped off - he was a bit confused as to which sport he was playing. Scott said he was merely demonstrating his second amendment rights. There was Mr. Cingular. He was just wearing a Cingular T-Shirt and he was tall and lanky like Tim, but he had a few good hits. Roid-rage has clearly leaked into the Christian Softball Circuit as well.

But none of these rivaled "Gary." I had said at the beginning, that I was really hoping to find the one ultra-competitive jerk on the Christian Softball League... and Gary was him. I was only sad that he didn't show his true colors until the very end of the match. Gary seemed to have no problem screaming at his own teammates for something that was hardly a big deal, and then proceed to screw up plays himself. It was when he yelled at Josh, he fully incurred the wrath of the peanut gallery. Gary became the new adjective:

"Man, that match got a bit gary at the end."
"Geeze, he really gary'ed that one."

We're gonna go back to Josh's future games for two reasons. One to support our friend again, but TWO, to see Gary. We're not sure if we're gonna be mean, or be REALLY REALLY nice to him. Probably gonna go with the nice route, 'cause it's got a bit more finesse. Everytime he messes something up, shout quite loudly:

"Its alright, you'll get it next time."
"Shake it off Gary, its ok."

Last night six of us saw a production of "The Sound of Music." We made a game of saying that all the nuns were Jedi, and the head nun was the wise old master. See, in this musical you can convince anyone of anything through song, so we just said that it was like the force. And the mean, snobby fiance was the Sith Lord. And when they refered to the Nazi soliders as "Storm Troopers" in the show, we all just about lost it. All in all, good experience however I want to go on record and say that catchy songs aside, The Sound of Music is a pretty poor musical. Anyways, that's all for now, I'll catch you later.

The Greatest Trick my job ever pulled...

...was to convice the world it didn't exist. And proof? Just that *poof* it's gone.

The Usual Suspects is a great movie. Getting a 7:30am phone call saying all the temps have been "let go" sucks. Well, I'm officially unemployed again, but I'm afraid I don't have the luxury of staying at home right now. So I've got to get on that job search and regain a source of income (Prostitution isn't as good here in Springfield as Jerseyville - the Pimps are pretty rough here too.) I did apply for jobs at Wells Fargo and I even made it to the interview stage on Monday, so we'll have to wait and see.

So yeah, that's about all I can say about that. I did everything I could, so I'm not going to dwell too much on it. Also I scared the ever-loving crap out of Scott when he came home from class. Its amazing how standing behind a door saying "Lost my job." in the most dejected voice and depressed face you can muster can instill fear in the unexpecting. It's actually a bit like those Japanese horror films. And Scott jumped and fell over. Good times were had by all.

On one last note. Scott and I were talking at the blood bank (yeah, we save lives) and we saw an Osama Video on the news. That man really needs to get some decent lighting and effects on that show. Like "OTV" in the Corner with a nice explosive intro and such. You'd figure he had the money for it, and one of those guys has to know something about that sort of thing.

Reason #483

Why my girlfriend is awesome...

She's a Gamer!

That's right, I've got 3 undeniable facts that illustrate my claim:

1. She wants me to get this Barbie game for her that she couldn't ever beat on regular Nintendo. She's obsessed. Apparently there was this one part that she just couldn't get past, and years later she's still not able to let it go.
2. She couldn't watch a racetrack, Greyhounds or Horses, she wouldn't be able to stop telling you how lame it was. Why? Because compared to Chocobos, Horses are lame. She can go on about how much she'd like to have her own Chocobo for hours. But what is a chocobo, you may ask. Well, its a creature from the Final Fantasy Series.
3. Which brings me to my final, and most devastating point. She's beaten Final Fantasy 7. You may not realize this, but that's quite an accomplishment. It takes no less than 40-50 hours of playtime for a person to beat a Final Fantasy Game. But it doesn't stop there. She's beaten 7, 8, 9 and 10. You do the math. That's a Heck of a lot of video gaming. This is for you Ro: Chocobo Racing Games.

So there you have it, she's a gamer, and she's adorable. And she's mine.
(do you hear that Tim?)
