Tuesday is now Bachelor recap day. I love this show for a few different reasons. One is I love watching a train wreck. Some of these girls do the dumbest things and act like such idiots.

1/24/06 Episode 3








Rule #1 in "Dummies guide to getting a Rose"

-Never bash or rat out another girl.

This never works and usually backfires. Guys hate this. Have these girls never seen a previous episode? They should have watched all shows like a coach watches game film before a big game.
I like the fact that Moana is keeping her feelings to herself and is not throwing herself at his feet begging for a rose. These girls hate her, and maybe she is a jerk, but this is her game and she is keeping her cards to herself. The girls would do good and learn from Shilo's mistake and shut up. Do not try to "warn" Travis, he will send you packing.

Rule # 2 in "dummies guide to getting a rose"

When on a group date and there is one rose to give out, Never ever ever ask what his plans are, or push and pressure a decision out of him. Come on! This is day one stuff. Yet every episode and every group date, one girl can't control herself and brings up the freaking rose. You are an idiot.

Rule # 3 in "dummies guide to getting a rose"

Dont interrupt a private one on one. Its rude, selfish and you look like an idiot. I think the worst was last night when on the yacht Tara walks up in a Bikini and totally jacks up the one on one with Sara S. Tara needs to stay away from the booze. She gets a few drinks in her and it flips her stupid switch on. And I like her, so it was painful to see her act like a jack ass.

Predictions for Next week.

Susan and Sara B are locks for getting a rose.

Moana will get one again because Travis is curious, but she is walking on thin ice. If she acts like she is rejecting the rose one more time and then says "just kidding", I will reach through the TV and choke her.

Tara and Jehan will slide by one more time, but I wont be surprised to see Jehan go home.
Sara S is a crybaby and will break one of the above rules and wont get a rose.

Rhonda took these pictures of me trying to wake skate off the beach at Lake Powell behind a PWC.
Didn't really work out, but I love pictures of myself, so I posted them.

Please watch. Thursday nights. The best show.

"When the fire heats the water to the boiling point,we have to keep it lighted with the same intensity,because if we reduce its flame, the water gets cold.It is not enough to boil the water, we have to keep it boiling all the time."

- a famous oriental/asian karate proverb

That is my philosophy in a nutshell. And that is whyI study KARATE. (pronounced Ka-ra-TE').

I like to keep my water boiling all the time. That is the essence of my male power. And why I'm so good at sales. And why I'm so intense.

Also, I study Karate so that I can injure people HARD if they wish me and mine harm. I want to be able to destroy them. I want to be able to kick them in the neck or throat if they come after me. Which is just a matter of time.

It's also good cardio.

Here in Scranton it is 46 degrees and SLEETY. I love sleet. It's so bracing. It's not snow (wimpy) or rain (annoying). It's sleet. It's its own thing. Sleet is the most unappreciated type of weather. This winter, let's all try and have a deeper respect for sleet and what it does and what it is.
Also- think about the way the throat and swallowing works. The epiglotis decides what goes where down the trachea and/or esophogus. But it gets no respect. This tiny flap of skin in your neck decides if something is food or air. The food goes to your tummy. The air goes to your lungs. Without it your food would go straight into your lungs and clog them up. You'd have soup in your lungs. Or a sandwich. Or doritos. Or Fresca. OR you would get air in your tummy and be a big gassy fart bag all the time. All that from the tiny, powerful epiglotis.
In many ways, I am like the epiglotis. Small, unappreciated, not well thought of or respected, but POWERFUL. So powerful that without me you'd have food in your lungs.
Thoughts? Questions?
Today's topic: "What part of the body are YOU most like?" (and don't say the genitals or the butt)
That is all.
