there was a cold sunshine this morning when i went out to get the paper. i really would just like a few days of no rain. that would be splendid for my back.
i did remember to turn the clocks back last night.
Shut Up and Dribble was really good last night. of course, no one who needs to watch it probably will.
Saturday Night Live was very funny last night.
Austin City Limits was excellent last night.
ROH was very good last night.
the Alabama vs. LSU game was a dud last night. i'm not sure if anyone is going to beat Alabama this year.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Axios, the season finale of The Deuce, Camping, Last Week Tonight, Ray Donovan, Kidding and Our Cartoon President.
the New Orleans Saints play later today at home against the Rams. the winner of this game will basically control their own destiny in the NFC. i'm really hoping the Saints find a way to give the Rams their first loss this season.
the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Buffalo. hopefully the Rangers can keep their winning streak going.
it's hard for me to believe, but the Sacramento Kings might actually be good this year. they play this afternoon at Milwaukee.
i'm hoping to get some writing done before the Saints game today. i've got one poem swimming in my head. hopefully, there are more.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hopefully your Sunday will be even better.
i'll most likely be on here tomorrow after a trip to the bank.
Las visiones del caos y la guerra son todo lo que los ojos pueden ver.
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:
before i get to a rather frustrating and funny bathroom situation today, here's an update on my uncle. the oncologist told my uncle that he has adenocarcinoma. it is between his spleen and colon. they told him that without treatment, he has probably 3 to 6 months. with treatment, he probably has maybe a year to 18 months. of course, he still has another scan to do that will determine the type of chemo he gets. he does want to do treatment, so he's fighting. the part that scares me is the cancer has probably made it into the lungs and i know where it goes from there. this is the same type of cancer my stepfather had. his went from his lungs to his bones and then to his brain. and my uncle's cancer is far enough along that it is certainly in stage 4.
i did go over and sit with him yesterday, just sort of shooting the shit. i figure i take out the man's trash, i can sit on his couch. of course, after 60 minutes of shooting the shit, i was ready to go. we mostly talked about the pot issue that was being voted on yesterday and life on the farm.
i wasn't surprised that pot failed in this state. the bible thumpers have this state by the balls. i figure the only way medicinal marijuana becomes legal in this state is if jesus comes down and tells all these stupid fucks that it should be. it still amazes me that so many people vote against their own best interest.
ok, so here's the story of why i was taking a shower 20 minutes after taking a shit. mom had left to go with my uncle to his doctor's appointment. i figured, given my luck, i would have a nasty shit while she was gone. sure enough at noon, my stomach started rumbling. in the process of wiping my ass, my back locked up. this is always fun. it more or less becomes just how much fucking pain can i take. somehow, while wiping and wincing in pain, i knocked some shit down into my underwear and shorts. just my luck, i didn't know i did this. so, imagine my joy when i pull up my underwear and shorts when i'm finished and then notice shit on my left leg. this is when i started to laugh as i know this could only be my fucking life. thankfully, the shower is right next to the toilet. of course, it's not exactly easy showering with a bad back. add on to that i'm trying to make sure i don't step in any shit that the water might break off. i know a fucker in Sweden that's laughing his ass off reading this.
to top my day off with a cherry, my doctor called today and had me schedule an appointment for Monday to go over some results. i figure this will be when they tell me i have some fucking disease. good times.
Manchester United actually fucking scored yesterday. HOLY FUCKING SHIT. even better, it was Wayne Rooney that did it. a HUGE win over CSKA Moscow that puts them on top of the group.
the New York Rangers were very sloppy last night and spent nearly the whole damn night in their own zone. amazingly, they still won 5-2. that to me is a huge win over a really good team, albeit the Capitals were their usual whiny bitchy pussy selves last night. that makes it even better when the Rangers eliminate them from the playoffs year after year. enjoy some highlights:
enjoy some music kids:
and now some of this and that:
The Muppets was pretty funny last night. it also gave an important life lesson every male should know. never ask an ex for help picking out a gift for the new girlfriend. NEVER. The Voice was a recap show that showed the road to the live shows. i am really looking forward to the live shows. Scream Queens was hilarious last night. the ending was really good.
on the DVR tonight will be American Horror Story and You're The Worst. i will be watching NXT and probably Table for 3 on WWE Network.
i got some great FREE music on NoiseTrade today. i will put the links down in the music section.
amazingly, i got most of the people i wanted for fantasy football this week. i have one team with all 3 starting wide receivers on bye weeks. that was a hilarious oh shit moment when i figured that out yesterday. i've been tinkering with my fantasy hockey team as i really need to find the right mix of players quickly. it doesn't help that i'm facing the best team in the league this week.
that's all for me today kids. i am fucking drained. my back is killing me. and i have had enough cancer talk for my next lifetime. hopefully some wrestling and some horror will take my mind off things.
be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.
before i get to what the hell i was doing up at 3 in the morning making YouTube videos, i have a little story to tell.
so, yesterday i wrote that i had not seen my cat Tolstoy for over 2 weeks. lo and behold, today when i go out to feed the cats, Tolstoy is where he normally is, just chillin', waiting for some food. at least i know one creature that reads this blog. and i completely understand why i prefer cats to dogs; they are indifferent pricks much like myself.
now back to our regularly scheduled programming...
those two YouTube videos came from just not being able to fall asleep last night. so, i finally decided to see if i could find a spot in my dirty ass room to set up the mini tripod mom got me awhile back. once i figured that out, it was go time. both of those poems have been on my 'to do' list for quite some time. i hope everyone enjoys the videos. and if you do, please feel free to tell EVERYONE and share it with the world.
the Yankees play tonight down in Tampa. i almost give a shit.
Big Brother was pretty good last night. as i thought, Nicole got the boot. the next eviction will be the most interesting one of the season. i figure whoever does get voted out will end up walking right back in, as that is what the next twist will be.
Married and You're The Worst were good last night as well. i suppose FX doesn't do any bad shows.
tonight i'll be checking out the season finale of Treehouse Masters and another episode of The Knick on Cinemax. if i somehow also get a victory beer out of the evening, i will be thrilled.
i did have a drink this afternoon when mom decided she wanted to go out to lunch. i'm not one to turn down a free meal. i only had one drink though, i was driving after all. we went to Ruby Tuesday. it was the first time i have ever been to one, shockingly. i had a pretty damn good Cuban sandwich, so there's a good chance we'll end up going again. about 100% as we have another coupon for it.
i'm hoping to get to bed at a decent hour tonight as Manchester United plays early in the morning. hard to believe another Premier League season is upon us. hopefully the disaster of last season will never happen again in my lifetime.
had a very brief chat with the dream woman today. she's been super fucking busy here lately. i do love the way she manages to life my spirits with just a hello. hopefully i'll get a chance to really talk with her this weekend. that time difference between here and Alaska fucking sucks though.
that's all for me today. i do hope EVERYONE has a great weekend.
be well. be cool. be creative. be quick to send me CASH, panties, love letters, hate mail, broken promises, and old pennies. and be sure to only fuck the ones that cough.
peace and chicken grease my enemies...
