TC the Terrible

Being sick really sucks.  Especially after such a great weekend.  But that's life in the big city I guess.

• How ironic is it that fat girls never get dates, but they hit puberty quicker?  I think this is another one of those cruel little jokes that God like to play on us mortals.  Maybe that's why they start going slut before middle school.
• Where's the love for the Tigers?  A perfect run in their conference and Top 5 nationally, but not a word about them in anybody's sportscasts.  There's a definite East Coast bias at work here.
• We know who is not getting father of the year , don't we?  Which is a shame since Mommy is so screwed up.  But on the upside, he at least is keeping up with where his meal tickets, I mean kids, are at night.  That's a step in the right direction.
• Becoming part of the Mile High Club is a good thing.  But it's not a good thing when your partner didn't know they were part of your plans until it was over.  Bad form leaving your juice on her back anyway.
• It's clear that Eugene Robinson was never in the military.  Or else he wouldn't be so shocked that the guys that fucked up Walter Reed got fired.  That's the way the Army generally does business.  It's government that tends to reward failure.  Just look at the welfare system for proof of that.

Back with more later.

I was out of town (again) for work and to be honest, just didn't feel like saying anything.  The older I get the less and less I like to travel for work.  Spending my day sitting in an airport full of pretentious pricks gets on my last nerve.  Everyone has a Blackberry/cell phone/laptop out acting like they are doing important business.  None of them really are.  They just have zero self esteem and a deep seeded need for the validation of strangers.  The people that are doing important things wireless-ly are doing them in a professional manner, not at the top of their lungs in the middle of the American Eagle waiting area.

Do you really think the decision to fire the Commanding General of Walter Reed was discussed in public?  Of course not.  It might have been discussed on a cell phone, but not at a volume that anyone would have noticed.  People talking about non-sense like where Jesus was/was no buried with his wife and son, whores selling their Outlook Contact list , or Al Gore's latest South Park-ish Man-Bear-Pig tirade are the ones that you hear talking.

But if you are flying American Eagle you have to do something while you are waiting on your next possible flight.  My flight out of Reagan was canceled for mechanical repairs, then the flight I was bumped to sat at the gate for nearly two hours getting fixed before I could board.  Then on the way back to Reagan I went through the three bump dump again.  In fact, my flight out left later than the one after it did.  ARRRGGGGG!!!!

Thank God/Buddha/Yoda that I don't have any travel this month.
