A friend (thanks Brian) just sent me this link from WalletPop. God bless the internet. It's Steve Porter's remix of the Slap Chop commercial. Unfortunately, they had to replace the video that had been spliced in (which apparently, according to that entry, is from the movie Breakin') with stock breakdancing footage.

So I'm typing this while doing laundry. Watching little kids "play" on the arcade games. (also known as vetting in the way of me playing Pac-Man while they have no quarters. Little jerks. No, I'm just kidding. There's no Pac-Man) There's a TV here, and being that I'm in what you'd consider the Salvadorean part of Houston, of course the TV is on the soccer game. Then again, which part of Houston ISN'T full of us. Anyway, it's Mexico vs Guadalupe. As I heard many a times last night, a certain Brock Lesnar has as much class as school on Christmas.

I can never watch this and NOT get goosebumps. Bill Pullman, I salute you sir. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRGUqd_M6Mg]

We should have seen it coming. Everyone else did. We didn't want it to happen. He was going to lead us back. He already had one billion people on his back, what's another 4 1/2 million? We all believed Yao was going to instantly make us title contenders.

Billy Mays. That magnificent beard. That magnificent son of a bitch. Dead at 50. I know some people that were hit harder by this news than the deaths of Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMahon, and David Carradine combined.

Note: This was written at 2am in the morning, because my iPhone wordpress application decided to eat the previous entry I had written about this. It may not be as good, it may be better, who knows...but here goes. The past few days have had a lot going on for me, so I've been trying to get everything done as quickly as possible so I can move on to the next thing, and slowly work my life into semi-normalcy. Well, HR threw me a curveball I was not really expecting. Well, payroll anyway. So let's establish the main points of the following story.
