Rapid Fire Friday III

I have seen way too much coverage of the NFL draft and the thing isn’t until tomorrow.

Didn’t everyone write off the Lakers after Shaq left… someone forgot to tell the Lakers.

With the walkout or whatever they are calling it planned for Monday; it could backfire horribly if there really aren’t any significant problems caused by the missing workers.

Steve Howe’s tragic death today just falls suit with his tragic life. Hopefully he can now find the peace he so desperately needed.

I think Dallas is the only city that currently has two annual comic conventions.

I read Batman: Gotham County Line again last night. It amazes me just how well Batman works in a horror story.

Everyone is talking about the price of gas and what to do about it. I say we go Soprano and simply put the testicles of all the petroleum companies CEO’s into vices until the price drops by a $1.50 a gallon.

I just can’t take Tom Cruise serious anymore. Mission Impossible III could be incredible but all I can see is his jumping up and down on Oprah’s couch.

There is now less than 1,000 days until the end of the Busch Regime. Can we get a countdown clock going?

My mother doesn’t understand my photography. I showed her the new set of lights I bought for $1,000 and she just couldn’t fathom spending that much on lights.

Two fast food restaurants that almost never change their menus are McDonald’s and ‘In n Out’. Yet McDonald’s spends a fortune on advertising where ‘In n Out’ does not. Does anyone need a reminder that McDonald’s exists?

I found out that the Green Hornet’s mask is far more comfortable to wear than I had ever imagined. Now if I can get my prescription lens cut to fit into the eyeholes.

I’m amazed at how quickly the PDA fad came and went. I think its Blackberries fault.

The nice thing about being overweight is no one expects you to be fashionable.

Does anyone actually watch the Ghost Whisperer?

It doesn’t matter whether you ask men or women, the overwhelming majority of people like breasts. Maybe it’s the feeding factor from when we are children; I can’t find anyone who just doesn’t like boobs.

What would we eat at Thanksgiving if Ben Franklin had gotten his way and the turkey became the national bird?

And is the middle finger the state bird of New York?

My second plan to bring down gas prices… make Bush pay for the fuel for Air Force One, Marine One and his limo.

And tomorrow I turn 36 years old… exactly the same age as Andre Aggasi and Uma Thurman. What the hell have I done with my life right?
