Bird Watching - 03/24/2007

I met these guys for the first time a few weeks ago...or so I was told. The guy on the left is named Scruffy. It has nothing to do with his scruffy hair, but rather the fact that he's ready to get into a scruff at any given moment, just like he did with the plate of buffalo wings I offered them right after this picture was taken. Man, he tore that shit up!

El Bandito

The first time I saw Carlos Mencia's stand-up routine I was happy to see that Paul Rodriguez was still working. Then I felt ashamed of myself for not being able to tell one Latino comic from the next. Then I felt angry because someone was making me watch this not-too-funny comic and trying to convince me that he was funny. And now I'm wondering how it's possible to be so un-funny when you're stealing material from one of the greatest comics ever.


And just so you don't think I'm a total ass when it comes to Latinos, here's a picture of who used to be my two favorite Latina television presenters since sliced tortillas, Carmen Dominicci & Barbara Bermudo.


Bad Timing

This past weekend I went to a waterpark. One thing they fail to include in the brochures is that waterparks are closed during the winter. I guess it has something to do with how water reacts to sub-zero temperatures. Nevertheless, I take everything quite literally, so when the snickering receptionist at the resort took my reservation, I just assumed the waterpark would be open.

Hopefully, my ski trip to Vail this coming August will be much better.

Bird Watching - 03/23/2007 - Celebrity Edition

I'm not entirely sure what Queen Latifah is the queen of. I'm thinking her royal credentials rank right up there with Burger King's or Dairy Queen's...and ever since they broke up it's been a black eye on the fast food royal family. Whoever will get ownership over the White Castle is still a mystery, and it won't be too long before those Hardees barbarians are crossing the border.

Just how many boners can the Joker make?

Here's a list of the Top 15 Unintentionally Funny Comic Book Panels. I'm not so sure what's so funny about this one, though, since I can sympathize with the Joker. I mean, what man among us wasn't glad to be carrying that grade school text at such a convenient moment? I, for one, was. But trying to explain why I was carrying a fifth grade math book into my last budget meeting did take some doing.

I got my name in lights with notcelebrity.co.uk

If you like to see your name up in lights (other than in that futuristic nighmare where you're wanted for a crime you didn't commit but still Big Brother is plastering your face and name on every video billboard this side of New Tokyo) then check out this site. Just be warned that if you try to enter the nickname you've given your genitalia, and you nickname your genetalia in the same way many latinos name their children (42 names, all ending in vowels) it probably won't fit on the sign. Trust me.

Bird Watching - 03/22/2007

I know, I know. You were all worried that while I was taking some much needed vacation time Bird Watching was going to come to a screeching halt. Fear not, young padawans, my camera was with me at all times. Just like my trusty bottle of bourbon. And my back-up bottle of bourbon. And the emergency supply in my shoe. You'd think with all that bourbon, the world would be awful blurry to me. Well, you'd think right. And just so you can see what it's like, this picture is a bit blurry as well. I think she loves me, but she could just be showing me directions to the ceiling.

If you've gotten this far, congratulations. You can read more by going to the archives. Or you can just imagine what else might be here without clicking anything. Might I recommend a fine bottle of bourbon to accompany your fantasies? I thought so.
