In the year 2011, beers fill up from the bottom. Consider your mind blown.
I'm thinking about buying this dog. She's a French Bulldog. I need to go see her this weekend in order to make sure she's not insane or anything. She's a big bubby. Sorry, I posted the wrong pic. The one on the left is sold. The one on the right is available. Left is considered blue creme and the right is blue fawn. Solid black is pretty cool too.
Krisin Cavallari gallery. I see her pics on the web here and there but really have no idea who she is. Singer? Actress?? Who knows.
The house is starting to get away from me. Seriously, I can't find anything anymore. Also, I think I fixed my Les Paul to the point I no longer want to throw it into the street. Still selling though.
Four no more?
Nice Rosario Dawson gallery. I'm a big fan. I thought about using one of those photos for a new blog banner but she's got that stupid Esquire crap on her shirt. I may be able to photoshop it out but I'm too busy to mess with it right now.
I'm a little hesitant to embrace the current Dogfort trend but some of these are pretty clever.
Starting the day off with a cartoon.
I've decided to sell my Les Paul 'Blueberry' and today was photo day. Hopefully I can get an auction up and running quickly so everyone with new Christmas money can see it. This is going to be my last Les Paul because frankly, I don't like them. It is very important that I come to terms with that statement. Yes, they are classic beauties and soooo much music that I love has been created by people playing them but I've owned three now and none of them really blew me away. Yes, they have that sound but it's a guitar based on a 60yr old design and because they're so oldschool they really don't play all that great. Do I need to buy a fourth, fifth and sixth to continue proving that point? No, I don't but that doesn't mean I'm abandoning the chase for that Les Paul sound. It's kinda like the Gibson banjo I used to have. It sounded so good and cracked like no other but it played like garbage.
Weekend movie watching included the Social Network and Inception. Both were pretty good but I think I like the Social Network was the better of the two. It's hard to beat a true story of young Harvard geniuses who become billionaires.
Cute French Bulldogs for sale. Too bad they're in Va. I did manage to find a breeder in Greenville but right now they don't have anything for sale. I was looking at some French Bulldog prices, $2,000??? Surely you can't be serious?

Hands down the best video of 2010.
One of our employees gave me a rockin' box of baked goods for Christmas. Banana bread, oatmeal cookies, chocolate chip cookies, chocolate cookies w/ vanilla chips and brownies. I had no idea she was such a great baker.
Illustrator and designer Ben Douglas has a pretty nice resume. I wonder how much money he's pulling in.
Beautiful PRS SC 58 over at Wildwood. It's probably best that they don't publish the price.
My Christmas invention goes a little something like this: it's a window decoration giving the illusion of a lighted tree from the road. You would start with a placard or thin board painted green in the shape of a tree with lights and garland all over it. It sounds simple and it is but to the casual passerby at night it would look like a Christmas tree in the window. What I'm really saying is that I'm too lazy to put up a real tree in the window so I've created a shortcut.
It's all good in the neighborhood.
I watched Black Swan last night. Amazing movie. Natalie Portman is great and that Mila Kunis is a hot little number too. I think The Fighter is more of a mainstream great movie and will rack up all the awards but the Black Swan is definitely a contender in it's own right. According to this chart, the Social Network is blowing everything else away. I heard it was really good but I haven't seen it. Maybe I'll try to track it down tonight.
I'm liking these Tsovet watches a lot but I'm afraid in reality they're going to be too big.
The weather is terrible and I'm lonely. Oh well. What am I gonna do? There's nothing to do really. Just keep on livin' bro. Things will change for the better.
Dogs dressed as Santa.Yeah, funny pets crack me up.
Want to be an actor? Learn these lines: Toto, we're not in Kansas anymore.
My new guitar. It's a limited run from PRS made from korina wood. It's basically a Santana model but without the fancy top or bird inlays on the neck (which in this particular case I didn't want to pay for anyway). Also included in the deal was a pair of 57/08 pickups which people say are very nice and the original Mira pickups were thrown in also. I thought it was a steal and to quote the guy I bought it from, "gosh, losing my butt, but....." It has everything I'm looking for right now: 24 frets, 24.5" scale, premium pickups and reasonably priced. The guy also said it was in immaculate condition which will help when/if I decide to resell. Sidenote: I just want to say that I have been going crazy all week trying to find a nice 24 fret guitar. I think I have chosen wisely. The Santana specs are definitely the best fit for me right now. I only wish I could afford one that was all tricked out. A hard tail would have been nice too but who's complaining?
Stocking stuffer idea #214...The Complete Elvis Presley Masters. Hefty price tag but you get it ALL.
Get a stuffed animal of yourself.
I had one of those classic Chuck moments at the gym tonight. I was walking on the treadmill for a few minutes and I started to get really hot. I slowed down the treadmill so I could take off this hooded sweatshirt I was wearing. As I was taking it off the hoodie got stuck on my huge head and I couldn't get it off. Of course while all this is happening I'm still walking on the treadmill except now I can't see. I started to lose my balance and I couldn't tell which way I was walking. I fell off the back of the treadmill but thank god a wall was right there to catch me otherwise I would have busted it. I tried to play it off all cool like but I'm sure it looked bad. Luckily no one was watching at the time.
Stuff like this is very important.
Best fails of 2010.
Cat vs. The Internet. So great.
Every zombie death in the Walking Dead. Makes me wonder why I'm not watching this show.
Dark Side Coffee - great stocking stuffer for the nerd in your life...like me.
Colossal Christmas cleavage photos could easily supply banner content for the rest of the month.
Hot girls in wearing Batman stuff.
Current collection revised 12/13/10...Re-revised as of 12/27/10.
I think I'm in love with the cute girl in all the Hyundai commercials. Their songs are actually pretty good.
I'm fascinated with the Japanese and their love for Kitkats. <--great blog btw.
I have devoted most of the day to watching movies because of all the rain. Cronos, Valhalla Rising and Splice. Cronos was kinda lame. Valhalla Rising was like Apocalypse Now but with vikings (I think that was a a complement) and Splice was awesome. Of course I've been eating all day long too: Froot Loops, grits, coffee and a Clif Bar.
Hoverhands.
The 5 Greatest Drugs Banned in 2010. After reading things like this I feel so un-hip.
Confucius say...
Miley Cyrus taking a huge rip on a bong. Meh, I was doing the same thing when I was 18 so who am I to criticize.
I just put my Ibanez on Ebay. Please buy it so I can get something else. Amazing guitar btw, it's just not what I'm into right now. SOLD. Yay!!! I actually made some money on that one.
Adidas adiStar Raven looks sweet. I'm not sure about the tread pattern and sole colors but I love the shoe design. This is a shoe that unfortunately will leave tread marks all over your carpet much like the Reebok Zig...still sweet looking though. Get rid of the blue/red sole and I would probably jump on it. I'm a sucker for a black and white runner.
I think I'm having an anxiety attack. These people around the office are just driving me crazy. The new lady is asking people how to delete dead icons on her computer. Now I don't claim to be any kind of computer expert but come on. Don't we have a computer literacy prerequisite around here? I'm tired of being the computer janitor for these dumb-asses.
14 Silent shorts of actors acting. I like James Franco. He's a pretty cool character.
Aretha Franklin, one of my favorites, was diagnosed with cancer. She needs to lose some serious weight. She's fat as fuck.
Wesley Snipes found guilty of three misdemeanors for failing to file tax returns. He will serve three years in jail, one consecutive year for each misdemeanor, starting this month. I blogged about this back in 2006 saying he was going to go down in a fiery ball of flames and I was right. The hammer did fall hard on Wesley but I don't agree with the verdict. He shouldn't do any jail time. That is ridiculous. The government should simply collect any taxes owed by Mr. Snipes and fine him heavily to cover expenses.
I ate a candy apple for lunch. It was delicious but now I have to poop.
I need a pair of warm slippers to keep under my desk at work. My feet are freezing! I trucked on over to Zappos and looked at some sweet Uggs but they are sooo expensive. I guess I'll start at the high end and work my way towards a pair from TJ Maxx for around $10. If I can find a pair that looks nice enough to wear around the office all the better. My mother called yesterday asking for some Christmas ideas. Maybe I should let her get me some slippers. Can I trust her with that kind of responsibility?
LMAO about the treadmill!!!!! <3
