I played a game of tennis with Ben before work this morning.  I kept hitting it out of bounds, no matter how i changed my grip.  So after he left, I trained for about 15 minutes.  Just got home from work, played a few games with a couple random miis and KICKED THEIR ASS....WOO! 

It's like all the best parts about tennis (the swinging and serving) and none of the annoying parts (running to go get all of the out-of-bounds balls) with some sweet slo-mo action replays.  I'm hoping to have a giant, toned right arm after a month or so. 

Care to arm wrestle?

p.s. I'd like to give a special shout out to Monteiro.  He sent me some awesome Veronica Mars miis.  (Keith and Veronica, to be specific.)  Thanks, Mike!

The Young Conservatives of Texas, who constantly amused me during my formative years at UT have a special holiday event coming up:

AUSTIN, TX – The Young Conservatives of Texas - University of Texas Chapter announced today that they will be displaying an “ACLU Nativity Scene” on the West Mall of the University of Texas campus on Monday and Tuesday, December 4th and 5th. The group’s intent is to raise awareness on the extremity of the ACLU, and bring to light its secular-progressive efforts to remove Christmas from the public sphere. The display, the first of its kind in the nation, will feature characters that are quite a bit different than the standard crèche.

“We’ve got Gary and Joseph instead of Mary and Joseph in order to symbolize ACLU support for homosexual marriage, and of course there isn’t a Jesus in the manger,” said Chairman Tony McDonald. “The three Wise Men are Lenin, Marx, and Stalin because the founders of the ACLU were strident supporters of Soviet style Communism. The whole scene is a tongue-in-cheek way of showing the many ways that the ACLU and the far left are out of touch with the values of mainstream America.”

The scene will also display a terrorist shepherd and an angel in the form of Nancy Pelosi.

Nancy Pelosi really is like an angel to us crazy liberals! But seriously, I don't think the YCT realizes that they have become a parody of themselves. I hope no one tells them because you can't make this shit up.

Helio does not support Flickr.  I'm really bummed about this because I love the Drift.  Ben is helping me figure out a way to circumvent this problem, but if it doesn't work out, then I'm dumping you, Helio!

This is my first camera phone (2 megapixels!), and there's really no point in having it if I can't share my pics.

Before purchasing the drift, I tried to find out if things were copacetic between helio and flickr, but i didn't find any information about it.  The little phone is so sleek.  I get RSS news feeds and Google Maps with a GPS locator so that I don't get lost. 

I stumbled upon a Helio sale at FYE in Baytown's glorious San Jacinto Mall.  All of the staff there had helio phones and raved about how wonderful they are.  I thought it was meant to be, but I may have been wrong.

At the moment, it's Jessy Delfino.  She's so edgy, the video for her song "My Pussy is Magic" was taken off of YouTube. 

Don't they know magic when they see it in the title?

Today I took video of a phenomenon that I've described many times before, especially to my co-workers. 

Well now you have.

What was your very first job?

My dad had a side project when I was a kid. He co-owned a banner towing company.   The banners you see in the sky being towed by planes over outdoor festivals?  That.  His was the only one in the Houston area at the time.

My job was to spell check the banners before they went airborne.
