i'm conflicted.

on one hand;
both manning brothers have a championship
and i feel a balance needs to be maintained.

on the other hand;
i'm still annoyed with the patriots over what
they were doing in the '07-'08 season with recording
other teams signals & wanting to copyright 19-0
because they thought they would win the superbowl.

tomorrow is the Internet blackout to protest SOPA (yes, it effectively died yesterday, but most of the news stories and sites about this still mention SOPA) and PIPA, the anti-piracy bills in the U.S. House of Representatives and in the U.S. Senate, respectively.

my brother & i just got done with a re-watch of 4 seasons of ghost adventures (netflix streaming doesn't have season 5) and my brother mentioned something about a drinking drinking game. that got my brain working on the subject. i googled to see what there was out there & there's only a few basic things.

as with other drinking games, this can be done with non-alcoholic beverages or small candies or nuts as well.

if you just went with the first group, during some episodes you'd be wasted half-way though.

1 tequila, 2 tequila, 3 tequila, floor )

the icon is the most appropriate one i have, i think.
food
we (my brother & i) had had soy milk a few times before & for some reason my brother wanted to try almond milk. i said: "sure. but get vanilla flavored." glad that we did. the liquid is grey-ish & thick looking, but strangely enough it did feel thick while drinking it. it didn't really taste like almonds (i never eat them, so i'm very unsure) and not much like vanilla either.

then he said to get rice milk to try (it was actually rice drink. as all of these things are). which we did, in vanilla. and was glad we did. this one defiantly tasted like rice & since i hate plain rice you can imagine how thrilled i was. the vanilla flavoring didn't help at all and i actually checked the label a few times to make sure i hadn't gotten the wrong one.

rant
i've been seeing commercials for this work it on ABC (about 2 guys who have to dress as women to find work) and thought it was pretty bad.
i caught several moments of it when it premiered and found out it's worse than i thought.

from the character (which seemed to me to be a rip off of larry the cable guy) saying that the reason that there are no jobs is the women took them all. isn't that a 1960s attitude? to the drug company sales lady saying they don't hire men because doctors don't want to sleep with them. apparently the women sales people flirt with the male doctors to get them to by stuff. are there no female doctors that could flirt with men sales reps? not to mention how crazy the idea is.

this is being compared to bosom buddies because both are about two men who dress as women out of necessity, but that's the only thing the shows have in common. the men on BB were likable whereas (from what little i've seen) the men in work it aren't. the main guy is the typical guy; rather spend time with his friends & is insensitive to his wife's needs. (one presumes his time as a woman will change him. *rolls eyes*)
the thing with BB is they didn't push for the laughs (it seems to me) but with sit-coms these days they hit you over the head with the joke & more often than not, it's a joke dealing with body parts or bathroom humor. is that what people really want these days?


bite me
i hope 2012 is much better then 2011. on so many levels.

i tore the fingernail on my right index finger the other day, don't know how. my nails were short to begin with because i had just cut them (and i keep them on the short side anyway) so it tore very close to the quick. *cue mild panic*

i had a dream the other night about tony stark, or maybe it was RDJ. not sure, because he didn't have the beard, but i had the impression that the car we were in was very expensive. but i digress.
he was driving us somewhere and were were talking about some function that he was invited to. i was "kind of, sort of, almost, nearly" his girlfriend & could i attend the function with him as such.

speaking of dreams; i'm been dreaming about stargate: sg-1 a lot lately. mostly the sg-1 team (which i suppose is the same thing) daniel & jack more often than the others. last night were were on some world where dinosaurs still ruled & i was the only one who could understand what they were saying somehow. the t-rex that was incharge wanted to kidnap me for some reason (because i could understand them, i think) but the stegosaurus was against that plan & they ended up fighting, which we used as an opportunity to escape.

first william shatner gave his opinion on the issue.

that started a war of words with carrie fisher.

now george takei attempts to make peace by reminding us we have a common enemy.

i have a sore throat. gargling with warm salt water helped some. i hope it's not tonsillitis. i had that twice. the first time was horrible! the second time was less so.

via [personal profile] ivorygates over at RDA's site they're attempting to map the plot arcs of all 10 seasons of SG-1. they're color coded include relevant plot points.

the amazing race just ended another season. i liked this one a bit better than the previous one.

for some reason i decided to look though my old posts. i rewatched a few videos that i posted & decided to see if the vid makers did anything else that i might like. here are the results;

food
i haven't had any hot pockets for a long time. (if you know know what they are here's a link) the quality had been going downhill. last week my brother suggested that we get some 4 cheese & 4 meat pizza ones. either my memory isn't what it was or they've improved.

we've since gotten other kinds, including some limited time only ones; spicy hawaiian style and 4 cheese garlic pasta bake. had the hawaiian one today (and it is spicy) didn't have the pasta one yet. i'm unsure about the pasta/bread combo, but then again i've put pasta on bread to eat when having pasta at home. it might not be so different.

ETA: the pasta one was ok, but the garlic stayed with you for awhile.
