A Thursday In Blogdom


So I will admit that I did watch part of American Idol last night and I have to say it was really scary when Seacrest Out told the audience that they received something like 64.5 million votes, which was more than any US President in history has EVER received. Maybe instead of having the Idols tour, they should just place the 12 finalists in the Cabinet for the last 1.5 years of Bush's term. I mean it might be cool to have Katherine McPhee as the Secretary of Energy.

Alright, I am all for series creating more drama to keep it going, but the season finale of Lost? This is just too much for one to handle. If you haven't watched you recording yet, good luck with all of that. More and more stuff keeps getting piled onto this neverending mindf***. In any event, it is one of thebest shows on TV, outside of Moesha and 7th Heaven.

I was noticing yesterday while heading out to a lunch that it is once again summer intern season. Ahhh, the time of girls and boys, that now look like they are 15, running out for coffee and packages, looking like a deer in headlights on some country road in rural Virginia. That being said, if anyone has any good summer internship stories, please feel free to share.

Quick word about the Yankees and Mets. Both are good teams, and both will be going to the Subway series. Then all the quabbling will be settled between the white collars and the blue collars. Of course, Yankee fans will now be saying the Mets had to go out and get a Yankee retread to revamp their starting pitching. Now almost every intro song at Mets game will be
the Merengue.

This weekend marks the first holiday weekend of the spring. A time for grilling, swilling, and all around debauchery. I will be headed on my annual trip to Cape Cod, and will have a recap of all the festivities on my return.

That brings us to today's debate. Which is better, Memorial Day weekend, Fourth of July weekend, or Labor day weekend. While many may knee jerk to the 4th, I reckon there are pros and cons to all.

64 million votes doesn't mean 64 million people voted. It means maybe 20-30 million teens, desperate housewives and the Schwizz voted multiple times. Remember Homer's AT-5000 Autodialer? Now imagine The Scwhizz with 4 cell phones and two bluetooth earpieces dialing and sending text messages in support of Kevin Covais even though he's not on anymore...

4th wins hands down - a holiday where any idiot with a match is actually encouraged to launch fireworks and blow things/themselves up is a winner. Throw in memories of bbq's in Quogue, Hawaiian party in FI... was the Fourth not also the holiday of the infamous Milkshake incident Devi? Check your credit card reciepts for "white bath mats" around the 4th circa '99/00.

"Sloaner B" ??? who is this guy??? i bet he's some burnout who lives in the suburbs and likes to reminisce about his victories in "Flip Cup" and about the time he forced Sonny to chug another pint of Vodka after losing "Kings" for the second time in a row. Wait a second... aside from the suburbs part, i think i described myself and anyone who reads this blog.

I like to think of that as WINNING "Kings".

Yes, I agree the 4th wins...but there's something to be said about Memorial day as well. It's the official start to the debaucherous summer that ensues.
