snow was in the air

let me tell ya, i felt like a cat trying to cover up shit in a windstorm today. i almost had time to eat and/or shit. but before i get to that...

this date does live in infamy. no one in this fucking country should ever forget Pearl Harbor, even if you weren't born until years later. one of these fucking days people will realize we keep making mistakes because we never fucking learn from our history. of course, i'll be dead by the time that day comes around.

i sent out 43 poems this morning. 2 to Tuck Magazine; 3 each to Bluepepper, Chiron Review and Yellow Mama; 5 each to Misfit Magazine, Horror Sleaze Trash, Synchronized Chaos (already accepted) and Winedrunk Sidewalk; 6 each to Record Magazine and Punch Drunk Press. when i hear back from these places, i will pass along the verdicts.

after that, i got all of my Christmas cards and special gifts for certain friends and fans done. so, you'll probably want to start checking your mailboxes by the weekend boys and girls.

i almost felt sorry for the people behind me in line at the post office while they were putting all the postage on the envelopes. almost. $25 later, i'm sure they were happy to see me leave.

the Dayton Flyers played much, MUCH better last night and defeated Tennessee Tech 79-66. i believe they have finally found a defense that works for them. now, if they could just find a damn offense that isn't boring as fuck to watch.

NXT was really good last night.

Total Divas was pretty good as well last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Gotham, The Big Bang Theory, Young Sheldon, Life in Pieces and 32 Pills: My Sister's Suicide.

the New Orleans Saints play at Atlanta tonight. i'd love to see the Saints get a big win. that would make it possible that with a little help, they could clinch the division this weekend.

i did listen to Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast today. you can find that by going here:

i will be on here tomorrow sometime after a trip to the grocery store. considering what the fridge looks like, i might be there for a few hours tomorrow.

that's all for me kids. i need to go figure out what the fuck i'm making for dinner. or more likely, where do we have fucking coupons for?

todos dormiremos cuando estemos muertos

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...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

75 years later...

does this day still live in infamy? i really want to believe so, but i highly doubt it. now, if you are connected to the military at all, i would imagine December 7th means a great deal to you. but for the millions of people who detest war and everything else that goes along with it, i'm not sure if they actually give a shit. i'm definitely not a pro war kind of guy, but i do respect anyone who ever wore the uniform, including my father, grandfather, etc. too many people don't respect the person in the uniform. i imagine that's why there are so many homeless veterans and also why we have shitty mental health services in this country. i imagine those are 2 arguments for a different day. but, i urge everyone to do a little research for themselves on Pearl Harbor and why you should actually give a shit.

i spent most of this afternoon getting all the Christmas cards/gifts ready to mail out tomorrow. i can just imagine the horror at the post office when i walk in. hopefully there isn't a fucking line.

the Dayton Flyers started off slow last night, once again. i loved what the coach did this time. he immediately pulled 4 of the starters out of the game and put in bench players. that's exactly how you get their attention, take away playing time. considering Dayton was playing a Division II school, i could see why some of the guys thought it was going to be a cakewalk. once the Flyers got their shit in gear, it was. Dayton won 91-59. they play next on Saturday against ETSU.

the New York Rangers lost last night to the last place Islanders 4-2. thank god the game was over before i got home. the injury bug has hit the team again. i swear, if it's not one thing, it's another. they next play at Winnipeg tomorrow.

i had 3 of the 4 finalists on The Voice correct. when i saw who was in the final 3 to compete to see who made the last spot, i figured the Country Mafia would strike again. sure enough...

i really hope Sundance wins it all, but i honestly could see Billy winning it. that would certainly make me sick to my stomach.

Scream Queens was hilarious last night.

Smackdown was excellent last night. everything on the show just clicked. it was fantastic.

205 Live was very interesting last night. i'm happy Rich Swann is still the champ, but i can definitely see a feud coming up with TJ Perkins.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Total Divas and Lucha Underground. i'll watch NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i got woke up this morning by a fucking telemarketer again. with my uncle in the hospital, i sort of feel like i have to see who the fuck is calling, especially since mom can't get to the phone very easily anymore. so, of course when the third phone call in 20 minutes came, i decided to fuck around and start speaking Spanish. of course, the phone call was for my mother. never fails.

i'll be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays in the Europa League. of course, the pitch looks horrible, so i have no idea if they will actually play.

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...
