let's start 2016 with a bang... no, not the bang your dirty mind is thinking of

i was up pretty late last night. i finished off a bottle of Jagermeister and then a bottle of Southern Comfort. to be honest, each bottle only had one drink left in them. i then turned to rum for the rest of the evening. i was flipping between NBC and CNN last night, laughing my ass off. it was amazing to see how many filthy lines Whitney Cummings got past the censor on NBC. plus, the coverage on CNN always makes me laugh, mostly because of how uncomfortable Kathy Griffin makes Anderson Cooper.

then i spent a good portion of the night talking to this woman from Ghana. she didn't ask me for money within 30 seconds of the conversation, so i'm assuming it's not a scam artist. plus the photo she showed me didn't come back as a model or porn star when i did a Google search. of course, i've been down this road a million times now. but, she did inspire some poems. i wrote 3 before i finally went to bed. i typed those up this morning and i think they are pretty good. it's a decent start to the new year.

Ohio State beat Notre Dame today 44-28. it was the final game for a ton of their seniors and juniors as i wouldn't be shocked if most of them turned pro by tomorrow morning. it was a decent way to cap off the season. though i really wish they would have made it back to the playoffs. they certainly were better than the two teams that got blown out last night.

i didn't watch much of the Winter Classic. Montreal won 5-1. i doubt i missed much.

my cousin came over today. i thought it was to watch the Ohio State game with me. actually, it was because he couldn't get his tablet to work over at my uncle's house. so i got him hooked up to our wi-fi and then he spent the next 3 hours watching shows on YouTube or something. the funny thing was after the Ohio State game was over, he asked me if i had headphones he could use as he didn't want to interfere with what we were watching. that made me laugh on the inside. technology has turned all the kids into fucking zombies with no social skills at all.

enjoy some music kids:

when i first turned on the television today, Natalie Cole's death was the first thing i saw. rest in peace, Natalie. (February 6, 1950 - December 31, 2015)

now some of this and that:

the rest of tonight will be probably some more football or if that bores me, i'll just flip through the channels while i'm figuring what drink am i going to add some vodka to.

i will be on here tomorrow afternoon sometime after the Dayton Flyers play. it will be a busy morning/early afternoon for me. Manchester United plays in the morning. once that is done, team USA will be taking on the Czech Republic in the World Juniors and sometime during that, the Dayton game will be starting.

so the goal is to write my blog sometime between the end of all that and the start of the New York Rangers game against the Florida Panthers.

hopefully i will be enjoying 4 victory beers tomorrow. i have a few to go enjoy now.

i hope everyone had a great New Year's Eve. hopefully your 2016 will be your best year yet.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...
