Inter-office dating: You’re kidding, right?

Posted on by Eric Brooks

I just finished reading MSN’s 5 Reasons Not To Date Your Co-Worker

First off, you have to be OUT OF YOUR MIND to date a co-worker. It’s one thing to fantasize and drool over them, or even take the temp or intern while she’s bent over the copy machine when no one’s in the room (that’s okay, we all do that every once in a while.).

But getting in a serious relationship with someone you work with is a suicide mission. Simple and plain. Of course I can name two very successful relationships that I know of in real life…

…but let’s not cloud the issues, and ruin a perfectly good rant with facts, ok?

Murdering cranky neighbors now legal in Galveston

Durst not guilty in neighbor’s murder

I knew something was up when the jurors were taking too long to deliberate.

Sure he admitted to killing Morris Black, and chopping up his body in a blind panic…

Obviously this was a case of a very cocky prosecutor’s office, who was sure they were getting him on 1st degree murder and didn’t bother charging him with anything else.

Johnny Cochran, Robert Shapiro and O.J. Simpson were unavailable for comment at the time of this post.

However, with the strange disappearance of his wife in 1982, and being a suspect of two murders in California… I somehow don’t think we’ll be hearing the last of Robert Durst.

God, I hope he doesn’t move to the Poconos.
I sleep with one eye open as it is.

The polls are closed

Posted on by Eric Brooks

I’ve closed the comments for the contest…

I’ve got a couple of great submissions FROM Jack, Toxiclabrat, and Crazy Tracy
(Kare is unfortunately ineligible, since after all she owns the diary site in question… but has been a really good sport through all of it.).

    Somehow, I thought it would be a no-brainer, but I’m really stuck.
    Q: “What is a bhoomi-bhoomi?” 

  • Jack – “An indian word for Mother Earth” (the running gag that followed was priceless)
  • Toxiclabrat – “Man, I thought it was a white version of Bling..Bling..”
  • Crazy Tracy – “It’s lesbian sex, using a dildo, a cordless drill and a sit-and-spin.”

I need some help… people.

New contest – Win a music CD

Posted on by Eric Brooks

Allrighty!

It’s time for some good, clean, wholesome fun…
I need an excuse not to post for a few days, and what better way to do this than to run a contest?

Give me your best answer for this:
“What is a bhoomi-bhoomi?”

My original guess was either “Pikachu’s illegitimate half-brother FROM Nigeria”, or “a new creative way to describe a baby with gas”… but they were both wrong, and I don’t have the nerve to ask the owner. So let’s make something up, kiddies!

The Reasons for Christmas ProjectThe winner gets a copy of The Reasons for Christmas Project.
A compilation of great songs by various artists in the Poconos for a worthy charity.

Use the comments, email me, or ping me…
Deadline is Monday night at 8PM.

Election aftermath

Posted on by Eric Brooks

Ahh… the people have spoken.

And they are truly idiots.
However, it’s all about choice. That’s what makes America great, right?
Even if dark days, a lot of despair, doom & gloom are ahead of us. And you just gave the enemies the keys to the kingdom. Hey, that’s cool.

You did your civic duty and got out there to vote, and I’m damn proud of you.

Dewey beats Marlins in the World Series!!!

Posted on by Eric Brooks

World Series 100th Anniversary Damn.

Was my prediction off (just a little), or what?

Of course I’ve been hearing rumours all week that the series was fixed, the Marlins would take it, and now they can go to the city of Miami and get their own stadium.

Nah.

I choose to believe that the Marlins were hungry. They’re a superior team that was seriously underestimated FROM the word “go”. And they deserved this.

Congratulations Marlins & Marlins fans!

How YOU doin’?

World Series 100th AnniversaryGoodbye to the Rocket
Man, this is definitely the MOST INTENSE World Series I’ve ever seen. It was cool to see Roger Clemens end his last pitch with a strikeout (woulda been nicer if the Yankees had won, buuut…).

I can’t say anything bad about the Marlins. They are one truly ass-kicking team this year. But I can question what’s up with the umpires over there? They called a Marlin “out” yesterday, when he was clearly safe at first… then vice versa for the Yankees (*genuflects*)…
