Wow what a weekend... I have so much to say! Last Friday was spectacular... I did all of my rat killin' early so I could take Dade to see Spiderman.
We went to the Marq*E complex, got our tix and had dinner at Red Robin. Then we went down to the Putting Edge and played blacklight putt putt, be sure to click on the photo album. It was very cool, everything is black and accented with flourescent colors, the putting surface was black and it made the ball look like it was floating. All of the rooms had themes as well, so in one room you were in a castle and in the next underwater walking into a sharks mouth.
After that we went over to Jillians and Dade got to go bowling for the first time. The lanes there are pretty cool, when Dade's turn would come up the bumpers would come up then my turn would come and they would go down. Well it sorta worked, they broke and in the end they just stayed up. It was very much fun though. After that we went downstairs and played Skeeball and he beat me in Air Hockey.
After that Angie showed up and we went to the movie. The lines were very long but we got good seats. As sson as we sat down Dade spilled almost all of his popcorn so I had to make a mad dash for some more. The movie rocked! I liked it alot, it reminded me of the way I felt about the first Batman movie. Dade got a bit bored with it but he made through... that was Friday.
Saturday we woke up bright and early! Saturday was the day one of scuba open water testing. We passed the written tests on Thursday so we had two days open waters and we would be certified. We had to be at the Blue Lagoon in Huntsville at 8:30 so we left early. Once there we were the first buddy team to go out and get tested. I had incidences. First I dropped my mask in about 10 feet of water. Luckily I recovered it, then I found out what it was like to choke underwater... interesting, next my tank fell out of my BC while gettign ready to buddy breathe! FUN FUN FUN, next during the fun dive my mask came off in my hand, damn it! Finally I backed into a big 'ol pine tree trying to get out of someones way. Oh yeah and I got a killer sunburn.
Day 2... I was determined to have no incidents on Sunday but, before we even made it to Huntsville, DPS pulled me over. Damn... well I pulled right over and was cordial and told him I was speeding and I knew it and I was late and that was why I was hurrying. He gave me a warning... second time in a row that has happened. Anyway that was my only incident that day(other than sunburn pain)... Angie I both passed our certs and are now SSI certified for recreational open water diving!
Not much time today, I'm off to take my written test for my scuba cert.
This link is about how scientist have wired up rats to be remote controled, sort of. It's kinda neat how they did it.
W sent me this link about how Best Buy uses a wireless lan to connect the registers to the stores computer system. Well someone with the some wireless lan equipment they just bought at the store was out in the parking lot testing the gear and got a bunch of credit card data across... uh oh!
W also sent in this about how much people are ga-ga over the Aibo...
And finally S sent this link in a follow up to yesterdays Hubble stuff... some more cool pics!
That's the name of the game! you know I used to love basketball, now I can't stand to watch even a little. WTF is wrong with me! We went to scuba last night... man that is fun stuff, I can't wait to go on a real dive! Let get a few links in real quick.
NOOOOOOOO!!!!! Damn it I knew it! Another show I like is about to bite it! Are the Simpsons Calling it Quits? ... of course they are if I like it it dies... it's kinda like my friend E, everytime he starts to root for a NASCAR driver that driver gets killed. So now he's real careful about how much he roots for someone. Be sure to check out the photo gallery
Many many many of you are getting bombed with virii right now as we speak. This little bit about Klez seems to be the flavor of the the minute. It seems Klez is signing people up for mailing list around the world... so if you suddenly start receiving mail about tropical fish or outting on make up, you need to update your virus software.
Apparently all high school girls wear nothing but thongs now(where was this fad when I was in high school) and that is not on the dress code. So at some school dance some teacher decided to check each one out as they came in. Girls made to show underwear at school dance ... ummm you can't do that!
Spiderman is out this friday for those who have not seen any ads for it... :P

Ok no good blogger can pass this one up... the organization called, are you ready, "Come as you are". Is holding a masterbate-a-thon ... considering how many people just did the MS150 I think there should be alot of you who are just those kind of people who like to give it your all for charity! No I am not sponsoring you so don't ask!
For my last story here is a little piece about the Holiday Inn sign and what it meant to our culture, it's kind of a shame that it faded away.
All work and no play makes Sam a cranky so and so! I worked almost all weekend AGAIN! This time on this. I like it ok, they want color changes and stuff to occur, we'll meet in the middle of thier side since they are paying me! Anyway we went to Dade's musical friday night and that was a hoot and then Sunday Angie and I took out first scuba lesson... it is not a natural thing to breathe underwater. After the first few breaths everything was way fun though!
Ask how my day has been... shitty, ask me again MF go on I dare you, I double dare you... Shit on a stick. I can't get my project to work period and I'm getting an ingrown toenail... freakin hurt right now too. damn it!

I think the season finale of MTV's Fear is on Sunday be sure to watch it... and in the tradition of killing off shows I like... one of THE funniest shows on TV, Family Guy, is getting the axe... what the hell are they thinking over at Fox, that is would do good in the 7pm time slot against Friends and Survivor? Boneheads! I hope someone picks this one up... let's see Freakylinks, Sports Night ... ahh forget it.
Sorry about the lack of an entry yesterday... today is not going to be much better as I feel like I could yak any second. Well after calling our guy to do the scuba cert back in March I was told just to wait for warmer weather. Then April came and I was told just one more week so now it turns out that the guy does not have insurance and I am now in a scramble. Anyway... I'm off this afternoon to see Houston Scuba Academy a shop that we will most likely use.
You know what, I don't know what this site is good for, but it sure is cool.
Kid Rock was freakin awesome... I have to admit, Angie came to me and said she wanted to go to see Kid Rock and I'm thinking to myself fine, go ahead. She begs and says she'd pay for the tix and everything... ok I'll go... I mean hell I drag her to stuff all the time. So I decide I better listen to this punk ass a bit just so I recognize his music. Well what do you know, I hear a little Beastie Boys in there, and some Run DMC, and some Skynyrd? Huh... what the heck is this guy doing? Well once you get through fu f' fu fu f' yous he has some pretty good stuff here. So anyway back to it... the concert was last Friday. All day I'm doing stuff and Dade is feeling sick and I'm still like ok this gonna be ok but whatever... Angie gets home we leave late and do a Nascar special to get out there and low and behold, Pam wannabes everywhere, which made for some good entertainment beforfe the entertainment started! The crowd is lively and cool, the weather is kickin and the show... bad ass. I have found new respect. Tons of pyro, lots of cool little stuff, Billy Gibbons walks out on stage, lot's of covers, everything from Seger to the Allman Brothers to Nuggent to Diana Ross to George Strait... and it all sounded good, very entertaining! Thanks hon! Now I have this overwhelming desire to curse every other word and go out and get me a ho so I can be stone cold pimpin'... I really do dig the music now, KR got a new fan last Friday. KidRock.com
Other than getting my ass kicked AGAIN in hearts, I was feeling pretty good about today, then the Astros ruined that! Way to go Wagner... damn it he better just throw the damn heat and give up on the slider. Rear back and throw... hard.
