White Bread

Over the weekend I was watching the Winter X Games X. Ahh, ten years of proving pot smoking doesn’t reduce your chances at being someone.

But much to my chagrin, one of the competitions was postponed due to heavy snow. SNOW! A Winter X Games event was postponed due to SNOW! Whaaaa??

You’re on the top of a freaking mountain in the Northern Hemisphere in January. What in the hell do you expect to happen?

“Welcome to Winter X Games X! It’s a beautiful 75 degree day here on the top of the earth. Luckily for all of us, there will be no snow, and we’ll be able to get in all of our competitions, including dirtboarding and water skiing.”

Mmm, sarcasm tastes just as sweet as irony. –>

Wow, the list is really picking up steam. Here’s the list up until now:

Old Navy
Michelle Wie

Today’s addition has bothered me for a long time. So let’s get to it:

Gwen Stefani

It should be enough that her music sucks. Because boy, it sure does suck. But there’s more.

She had a perfectly successful career with her group of friends together as a band, No Doubt, making hand over fist. But she opted to leave them behind. The reason? The music they were making wasn’t stupid enough. “I want to replace the drums and guitars (and the guys that play them) with beat boxes and Eve,” I can imagine her saying. “I really want to suck.”

This crap she is putting out now is absolutely terrible. I mean this shit is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S.

Just one last question: Do you think she is pre-op or post-op? –>

I’m not sure who, where, or why people are infactuated with Chuck Norris, but the below link is absolutely hillarious. Some highlights:

Chuck Norris does not teabag the ladies. He potato-sacks them.

Chuck Norris once challenged Lance Armstrong in a “Who has more testicles?” contest. Chuck Norris won by 5.

I must not be as angry as I used to be. The List is looking a little weak. But I have a new entry to join Old Navy. She goes by:

Michelle Wie

Why, you say? There are a couple of reasons. First, the media attention she receives is unjustified. I understand that she has a ton of potential, but she hasn’t done anything. She hasn’t won anything. Not even on the women’s tour. Why is she invited to play with the men?

The second reason is that she is invited to play in events that she doesn’t have the credentials or the talent to play in. Sponsors bring her in, parade her around like a sideshow, just to get a few extra seconds on Sportscenter. Both the sponsors and Wie should be embarrassed. This isn’t a huge issue, but she is taking the spot of someone more deserving. Every time.

The third issue is what frustrates me the most. She is playing (poorly) in men’s events. And before all of you tree-hugging hippies start quacking about equality, let me ask you one question. Would it be OK for men to play with the women’s tour? There are hundreds of men trying to receive their PGA card, and spend their time playing on lesser tours. How do you think they would do against the women? My guess is that they would clean up. So then what? Well, there would be no place for women to compete with each other.

There’s a reason that golf courses have separate women’s and men’s tees. It’s because equality doesn’t always work. Let the men play with the men, and the women play with the women (sounds kinky). –>

My wife and I received the next generation Lean Mean Fat Reducing Grilling Machine for Christmas this year. What a find! This particular model comes with 5 interchangeable plates, including waffle plates, a baking pan/skillet, and grill and steak plates. It can be tilted forward, which helps knock out the fat, or level, which is less likely to knock out the fat, but is a great way to ensure your waffle batter doesn’t pour all over your new countertops.

In the week that we have owned it, we have used it on at least 10 separate occasions. We’ve used “the George”, as we call it, to make waffles, bacon, eggs, chicken breasts, hamburgers, and turkey burgers. And all while ‘knocking out the fat’! –>
