sometimes life becomes this hamster wheel that seems to never fucking end. i've always been the type of person who gets easily bored by that kind of shit. now, pain dulls the senses to the point where that boredom gets harder to shake. and quite frankly, i am at the point where i am in so much pain that i am getting used to that. and that sort of scares me as my pain tolerance is such that i could be closer to death than ever and i would never know it. but part of me knows that being in so much pain that your body just shuts down for a few hours at a time isn't exactly "healthy". as usual, none of it fucking matters. the wheel keeps turning.
the Yankees are rained out tonight so they are going to play a doubleheader tomorrow. so, i imagine that tomorrow's blog will be coming during the first game i guess. unless i get a wild hair up my ass and get the grocery shopping done way earlier than normal tomorrow.
Monday Night Raw was excellent last night.
the USWNT won today in extra time over Germany, 1-0. they will play for the gold medal on Saturday against Brazil.
i guess the USA men's basketball team flipped the switch today at the Olympics. they defeated Brazil 122-87. they will play Serbia in the semifinals on Thursday.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be NXT, Deadliest Catch and Hard Knocks.
i need to go make dinner and at some point tonight, pick up all the trash.
our internet was out for a few hours today, so i've been playing catch up on everything. fun times.
until tomorrow kids...
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.
fuck war.
fuck the police.
black lives matter.
stay healthy.
wash your fucking hands.
stay off the fucking streets.
get the fucking shot.

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

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
so i couldn't sleep last night. big surprise. i was on NoiseTrade and amazingly saw the new Dr. Dre album, Compton, on there. i figured it was a mistake, but it was a mistake i was going to take advantage of. and sure enough, i got the entire album for FREE. when i went there this afternoon and saw that the album was nowhere to be found, i simply smiled. life is all about the moments you take advantage of. i'm really happy that i was on the right side of "luck" this time around.
by the way, the album is really fucking good. if you enjoyed west coast "gangsta" rap back in the 90's, you will really enjoy this. it brought me right back to high school. a better memory than it probably should be. but, that's the joy of alcohol and drugs. to think that i did as much as i did and i still graduated with honors, it truly makes me think that most education is a fucking joke. i think i was just able to take tests well and could see through all the bullshit. what you needed to learn for a test and what you needed to learn for life. i'd like to think i won at that game as well.
a little music kids:
Manchester United didn't start out well today, giving up an own goal early in the game. that truly pissed me off as away goals in these competitions mean everything. but thankfully, today was the day that Memphis decided he was going to put on a fucking show. 2 amazing goals that reminded me of some other greats that wore that #7 jersey and a wonderful assist at the death for a very meaningful Fellaini goal. they will take that 3-1 lead to Club Brugge next week. i like their chances to get into the Champions League much better than when they were down 1-0. they next play this Saturday at home against Newcastle. and yes, i did enjoy the victory beer.
the New York Yankees got off to a great start last night. and then the starting pitcher took a liner to the head and the game entered bizzaro land. the Yankees bullpen had to get like 25 outs or something like that, since the game went into extra innings. in a bit of cruel karma, the guy from the Twins that hit the liner that hit the pitcher was the guy who bobbled the ball in the 10th that allowed the Yankees to win 8-7. by the way, he's a former Yankee so everyone on the internet was congratulating him for finally helping the Yankees win. they play again tonight.
Monday Night Raw was very good at times. like this:
or this:
but then you had this kind of shit as well:
i really wanted to like the entire show, but that wasn't even close to being possible. i'm really hoping the SummerSlam ppv this Sunday is going to be much better than just a longer episode of Monday Night Raw.
the Men in Blazers was hilarious last night. that set the night up for some tremendous comedy:
but i'm not done laughing, enjoy:
on the DVR tonight will be WWE Tough Enough, Total Divas, Hard Knocks, the season finale of Deadliest Catch and Tyrant.
that's all for me today as i have toilets to clean, a house to vacuum and trash to pick up. and i would like to have that all done before the Yankees start in 10 minutes or so. (that's not happening)
i hope everyone has a pulse and is enjoying some sunshine.
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...
