Tonite's episode was action packed. This show continues to improve each and every week. If you haven't been keeping up with it, you need to catch up and become a fan!
We were shown some things tonite. First, unfortunately, as you get older, you actually can develop a conscious. Scott Bakula's character had an opportunity to potentially have another affair with a former fling. But upon learning that she was engaged, it may him change his mind to passing up on the opportunity for another night of fun. That made me sad. But that's the kind of right decisions that you make when you have a conscious.
Second, what would you do without your friends. We saw with this with Andre Braugher and Ray Romano's characters. Braugher's character attended a charity event with Romano's character's ex-spouse and her new beau. During dinner conversation, it came about that she possibly started the relationship before the actual separation. Now would your friend stand up to her about the possible infidelity, and would they have the courage to come tell you about it?
Third, unfortunately men who are not married or have never been married will never understand the plight of a married man. As Braugher's character informed Bakula's character, "you're being extra articulately shitty tonite." Until you've been married, you will never really understand the plight of a married man.
Finally, unfortunately you cannot always control who you associate with. Bakula's character struggled to deter his annoying boss from being a mood killer during the episode. It's kinda like having that drunk friend around you at the club, and every time you seem to be doing well with a lady, he surprisingly makes an unfortunate appearance and ruins the moment. As as Romano's bookie informed him, you should never confuse business and friendship. There is a very fine line between the 2.

Oh Please Let This Be True . . . . .
Morimoto, Mr. Iron Chef, coming to Los Angeles?
"While not in the business of gossip, I feel compelled to report some news about Iron Chef Morimoto. Over the weekend, I learned that he is considering opening a Hollywood location near the intersection of Santa Monica & Vine. As a long-time fan of Morimoto, I hope that he chooses to execute on this location. The area is still somewhat "sketchy" in nature and currently only houses Japanese fast food chain Yoshinoya. But gentrification from the new W Hotel & Residences (opening Jan. 2010) will move South to Santa Monica Blvd. And, needless to say, I will be first in line to review his Hollywood debut!"

How To ID Your Local Street Pharmacists . . . . .
8 Kinds of Drug Dealers
1. The One Who Wants to Be Your Friend
He's a master of entrapment. Trying to break free of his sticky weed-web will only get you further entangled. He'll do anything to hang out with you, even if it means locking the door and making bagel bites. You say to yourself, "alright, maybe this one time." It's hard to say no, but you know you can't be seen with this guy. He's a f***ing drug dealer.
Tagline: "You and I make a good team. We should hang out more!"
2. The Late One
You called him three hours ago. He's still not here. You're friends are getting antsy and the Death Cab show starts in 45 minutes. All drug dealers have a skewed concept of time, but this species is particularly out of sync with the rest of the world. He'll get you your product, but say goodbye to any movie previews or opening bands you were planning on seeing.
Tagline: "I'll be there in five minutes".
3. Earthy One
Rather than living by the code of the traditional drug dealer, the earthy one believes he's doing you a service in the name of mother nature. Aside from taking his job a little too seriously, he'll be totally useless after the transaction, unless you have any interest in learning about the fungus that he's cultivating in his dreads.
Tagline:"I mean, how are you going to get any closer to gaya without it?"
4. The Sketchy One
Suddenly, you're wondering if you should be buying drugs from this guy. He's spilling shit everywhere, he talks too loud, and he clearly hasn't heard the term "never get high on your own supply." Turn off your cell phone around this guy, the Drug and Firearms officials could be listening.
Tagline: "Shit! Everything is totally fucked, dude!"
5. The Girl
She's hot. She's in charge. She sells you drugs. All sorts of conflicting feelings are coursing through your veins. She transports weed in places that none of your other male dealers could...like her purse. It takes you three visits to realize she's totally not into you and she's a damn good saleswoman.
Tagline: "Baby, I know $150 for an eighth sounds expensive..."
6. The Entrepreneur
You're going to college so you can sit in an office someday and get a paycheck. He's selling drugs so he can...uh... sell drugs for the rest of his life. This guy has more gadgets than James Bond and his utility belt puts Batman to shame. He takes himself so seriously that he's pretty sure someone will make of movie of his life if they aren't already. His favorite movie is Blow, eventhough he's never seen it all the way through.
Tagline: "I've got to call you back, my other Blackberry is ringing."
7. The One You Really Shouldn't Be Buying Drugs From
This includes but is not limited to: family members, friend's family members, police officers, children, Quiznos employees, hockey players, creatures of ancient lore and people in suits. These are the people that your conscience has a serious problem with; but it's late and you're desperate, so you dive into that moral grey area head first. You'll regret it the next day, or the next time you order a bacon cheddar ranch sandwich.
Tagline: "Make sure you don't forget, Aunt Janets's birthday is the 14th."
8. The One Who's Out of Your League
The entrance to this guy's house has a few too many unnecessary roman columns and/or marble fountains. His sports cars are fanned out in front of his compound like he's filming an episode of MTV Cribs. There are multiple scary dogs at the front door and just as many scary people in suits at attention. He laughs when you say how much you want to buy, no matter how much it is. He deals drugs out of metal briefcases and wears bathrobes everywhere. This man is known around town as a"force". He is way out of your league. He usually sells white and brown drugs and eats the green ones for breakfast.
Tagline: "Hello my friend. I apologize for the strip search, but a man of my status can never be too careful."

10 Weird Colors That You Never Knew Existed . . . . .
Top 10 Weird Colors You’ve Never Heard Of
1. Caput Mortuum
If you’re one of those super cool Latin scholars, or maybe one who knows a little about alchemy, you may have heard the term caput mortuum. In Latin, the words translate into “worthless remains” or “dead head.” The color name comes from the variety of purples and brownish colors that are created when iron oxide, A.K.A. rust is oxidized. It is said that the color was widely used when painters would paint important people or religious figures such as patrons. It’s a highly popular color used in dying paper as well as oil paints.
2. Xanadu
No this color has nothing to do with Robert Greenwald’s film. Instead, Xanadu is said to be a color coming from the color of a plant. Xanadu is a green-gray color that comes from a plant known as the Philodendron. The plant leaves are generally a green color with a tint of gray. This plant is widely seen in Australia, but it is said that the plant got its name from Xanadu, which was an ancient city located in Inner Mongolia, China.
3. United Nations Blue
That’s right, the United Nations, the international organization provided to help countries with human rights, social progress, economic development and more has it’s own color. Originally named United Nations blue, the color is very similar to Dodger blue, but is more pastel like and not as vibrant. You will find this blue on the U.N. flag, as well as their emblem and even the U.N. peacekeeper uniforms.
4. Feldgrau
A German color, translating to “field gray,” feldgrau was the color of German uniforms worn from 1907 until late 1945. The color was also used in post war uniforms by the East German Army (NVA) and the Bundeswehr, West Germany’s army. The color was last used on the woollen m/58 winter uniform. The gray-green color is very similar to the greens, grays, and browns used in more widely used army uniforms, such as those of the U.S. Army.
5. Arsenic
It doesn’t take a brain scientist to figure out this color, but it’s definitely not a “happy” color, so to speak. Imagine saying you want to paint your walls in arsenic, semi-gloss. You’d get some looks there. The color arsenic is based around the element arsenic which is a dark gray-blue color. Arsenic is a metalloid that is often naturally found. However, there are other types of arsenic that aren’t the gray-blue color. Some are more of a red-orange tint.
6. Falu red
Falu red has deep meaning in many different areas of Sweden. This color is a dark red tint that was a prominent color used on wooden barns and cottages. The purpose of the deep red color was to mimic the color of more expensive brick homes. The color originally came from a copper mine at Falun, which is located in Dalarna, Sweden. Unlike most colors, this one has been around for a long time, since the 16th century to be exact, and today is still used. Many realized that the color is great to use in order to preserve wood. However, it is rarely used for homes in the cities of Sweden today, as brick became more popular and many wanted a more neutral/lighter colored home. But, in the countryside, the color can be seen everywhere.
7. Razzmatazz
Not the liquor; nor the song, nor the television series, razzmatazz is red-pink color that was invented by Crayola in 1993, and was first found in the Big Box of 96. The color is said to be one very similar to rose, which is found directly in the middle of magenta and red on the color wheel. You can thank Laura Bartolomei-Hill for the name, as she was the one who named the color at the age of five during Crayola’s Name the New Colors Contest.
8. Fallow
Sounds like a word you’d hear out of someone with a heavy Southern accent. Maybe something like “Fallow me right over yonder.” Fortunately, fallow is a word. In fact, it is one of the oldest color names to ever exist in the English language. Though not a considered a “pretty” color by some, the pale brown is named after the color many would see when looking into fallow fields as well as the soil, which was often sandy. The word fallow, to express the color, was first recorded in 1000. It is said that the color is also known in South African and Indian cultures as Ravi brown.
9. Gamboge
Think of spicy mustard and think of gamboge, but a little bit darker. The color is a yellow pigment that is somewhat transparent, despite its dark tint. The color is named after the gamboge tree, which is known for its yellow resin. The color comes from Cambodia, where in the 12th century painters would use the color as a watercolor paint. Besides being used as a watercolor, the color has also been used as a varnish for wood. Gamboge as a color started to spread, and in the 17th century made its way to Europe, where it was first used in the English language in 1634.
10. Malachite
Malachite is probably a color we’ve all seen, but never known by its “real” name. This color is also known as basic green 4 and is often used when creating a green dye. This vibrant green comes from the carbonate mineral known as Malachite, or copper carbonate. In the 1800, the mineral was widely used for green paints because it was lightfast and often varied in color. The color is one that is seen rampant in history. For instance, there is the Malachite Room in Hermitage, and it is also said that Demeter’s throne was made of this color as well.

I Only Agree Partially With Some Of This List . . . . .
8 Women Who Are Completely Off Limits
Find out if you're already dating one!
Your Friend’s Ex
It’s a rule as old as...that song about your best friend’s girl. You may have secretly wanted her the whole time she and your friend were together. The two of you may have flirted shamelessly during the same period. But now that their relationship is kaput, your relationship cannot go to the next level. If you hooked up with your friend’s ex-girl, you’d lose him as a friend and the rest of the posse, too. You’ll be branded a traitor and a hit will be taken out on your miserable life -- if your friend is wealthy and connected to assassins, that is.
CEB: Agree. No to sloppy seconds.
Your Friend’s/Ex’s Mom
All those years of hanging at your friend or girlfriend’s house was 10% to be around them and 90% to eye their sweet, sweet mom. Sure, we’ve all got an older woman fantasy thing going on, but said mom cannot be someone who served you milk and cookies during the holidays. You’d be better served picking up a stranger’s mom in a bar and giving her a fake phone number when you’re finished. No strings attached and no explanation to the friend or ex about how you accidentally hooked up with their mom. And you are the better man for it.
CEB: Disagree. Friend's ex's mom may be a hot milf.
Your Ex’s Sister
It’d be better to get with your ex’s mom instead of her sister. Seriously. People we know have tried the one sister to the other transition and the tension at the dinner table could not be thicker. The way they see it, you have traded in for a different model -- a model you obviously had your eye on the entire time you were with the original sister. You will destroy the sisterhood and bring the hate of her parents on your head. If they are twins, you will not only be an asshole, but on your way to meet Satan. Close cousins can also fit in this category, but the sting is a lot less than hooking up with her sister.
CEB: Disagree. Friend's ex's sister, especially if slutty, are not off limits.
Your Boss’ Daughter
One of the quickest ways to find yourself in the unemployment line is to hit up your boss’ daughter at the company picnic. You’d have a better chance keeping your job if you stumbled into work drunk off your ass and wearing a skunk on your head. It seems that almost every boss in the world has a hot daughter. And she likes to flaunt her hotness whenever she comes in the office to borrow some dough from Papa. Whatever you do, don’t fall prey to her charms. You’ll be used and abused for a couple of days and be out of a job to boot.
CEB: Disagree. Proceed at your own risk.
Your Boss
While stooping your hot boss may give you some temporary perks at work, it won’t last forever. Meaning, you will tire of her and break up with her or vise versa. Both scenarios end in you getting fired. The time in between can also be awkward. Imagine having to turn in your TPS reports to your boss, then being required to have sex with her. Sure, you’ll get to take extra long lunch breaks and get every day off requested, but when this thing ends, your life will be in the crapper. You’ll be jobless and the brunt of every joke in that office for the next year.
CEB: Disagree. Proceed at your own risk.
Your Doctor
Just because she’s handled your junk doesn’t mean she’s into you. She’s supposed to do that. Insurance companies pay her to handle lots of junk on a daily basis. However, if your doctor seems to be into continued handling of your package, avoid it. One, would you want to be with a woman who has been prejudging your goods before you get a sampling of hers? Second, if she ever dumps you, it’s a bitch finding another good doctor in your insurance plan.
CEB: Disagree. Proceed at your own risk.
Pregnant Chicks
If we have to explain this one to you, perhaps it’s time to move out of the trailer park. She’s likely either with a dude already or enjoys one night stands over-and-over-and-over. Hence, the mound in her belly. Plus, getting with that is kinda’ gross, right? Who cares if she can’t get pregnant again in the event your homemade condom breaks. The worst case scenario in this is if you are still around when the birth happens and suddenly become the dad of some other prick’s kid. We feel physically sick just thinking about it.
CEB: Agree. No need for some baby daddy drama.
Nuns
Um, Dude, their vow is to God. As in, they are married to God. If we have to spell out the dangers of messing around with a nun to you, then you are probably already beyond hope. You have a slight advantage in the resistance department with nuns because only about 5% of them are hot and they keep completely covered up, however, curiosity can get the best of you so be on your toes when in the midst of God’s ladies. We’ve heard talk about some nuns wanting to fly their freak flag. Be strong and don’t engage. Just our opinion, but you don’t want the wrath of God following you around day and night.
CEB: Agree.

And she likes to flaunt her hotness whenever she comes in the office to borrow some dough from Papa. Whatever you do, don’t fall prey to her charms. You’ll be used and abused for a couple of days and be out of a job to boot.
CEB: Disagree. Proceed at your own risk.
Your Boss
While stooping your hot boss may give you some temporary perks at work, it won’t last forever. Meaning, you will tire of her and break up with her or vise versa. Both scenarios end in you getting fired. The time in between can also be awkward. Imagine having to turn in your TPS reports to your boss, then being required to have sex with her. Sure, you’ll get to take extra long lunch breaks and get every day off requested, but when this thing ends, your life will be in the crapper. You’ll be jobless and the brunt of every joke in that office for the next year.
CEB: Disagree. Proceed at your own risk.
Your Doctor
Just because she’s handled your junk doesn’t mean she’s into you. She’s supposed to do that. Insurance companies pay her to handle lots of junk on a daily basis. However, if your doctor seems to be into continued handling of your package, avoid it. One, would you want to be with a woman who has been prejudging your goods before you get a sampling of hers? Second, if she ever dumps you, it’s a bitch finding another good doctor in your insurance plan.
CEB: Disagree. Proceed at your own risk.
Pregnant Chicks
If we have to explain this one to you, perhaps it’s time to move out of the trailer park. She’s likely either with a dude already or enjoys one night stands over-and-over-and-over. Hence, the mound in her belly. Plus, getting with that is kinda’ gross, right? Who cares if she can’t get pregnant again in the event your homemade condom breaks. The worst case scenario in this is if you are still around when the birth happens and suddenly become the dad of some other prick’s kid. We feel physically sick just thinking about it.
CEB: Agree. No need for some baby daddy drama.
Nuns
Um, Dude, their vow is to God. As in, they are married to God. If we have to spell out the dangers of messing around with a nun to you, then you are probably already beyond hope. You have a slight advantage in the resistance department with nuns because only about 5% of them are hot and they keep completely covered up, however, curiosity can get the best of you so be on your toes when in the midst of God’s ladies. We’ve heard talk about some nuns wanting to fly their freak flag. Be strong and don’t engage. Just our opinion, but you don’t want the wrath of God following you around day and night.
CEB: Agree.

Blogging
"Blogging has been such a crazy and unexpected experience over the short couple of years I’ve been dabbling in it…Minutes before I wrote this I was looking at the web statistics for this blog and really just trying to wrap my head around what I was seeing. The numbers truly blow my mind when I put them into context with what they really represent."
"That is the power of blogging. The ability to piss off 50,000 people from my laptop by streaming my mind’s internal “freaking out” moments when numbers are given virtual representation and meaning."
"I think most people who start blogs never expect much in the beginning. I sure didn’t. I was quite honestly shocked and super excited when I got my first comment here years ago. Hell, I still get super excited to get comments and I check them often. That was why I started the blog, to have something interactive."

Scientific Studies Sometimes Can Be Awesome . . . . .
Swedish Girls Are More Likely To Have Sex With Each Other
"There are scientists that help the world, and then there are scientists that are awesome. I’d like to thank all the scientists that participated in this study, for making the world a better, safer place. We are indebted to you, not only as humans, but as anybody with a sense of curiosity.
You read that right. According to new surveys, Swedish girls are more likely to have sex with each other than apparently any other girls in the world. You can insert your own Tiger Woods joke right now. Not only are Swedish girls more likely to have sex with each other, YOUNG Swedish girls are the most likely to be doing it. 855 young people between the ages of 18 and 24 answered the survey. So really, their results were geared towards young Swedish girls. The way all surveys I do will be from this day forth. 13 percent of the female respondents said they’ve had sexual encounters with both sexes. And according to the researcher, Sven-Axel Månsson . . . . ."

They May Battle After All . . . . .
Pacquiao says he plans to sue Mayweather
"SARANGANI, Philippines (AP) -- Manny Pacquiao says he is planning to file a defamation lawsuit against Floyd Mayweather Jr., the fighter's father, and Golden Boy Promotions
In a statement posted Friday on his Web site, Pacquiao claims that his character has been damaged and tarnished by accusations he says are untrue.
"Enough is enough," Pacquiao said in the statement. "These people, Mayweather Sr., Jr., and Golden Boy Promotions, think it is a joke and a right to accuse someone wrongly of using steroids or other performance-enhancing drugs. I have tried to just brush it off as a mere pre-fight ploy but I think they have gone overboard."
The proposed megafight between Pacquiao and Mayweather is in danger because the sides have failed to find a compromise to a dispute over blood testing. Promoter Bob Arum declared the bout dead Thursday."

Lakers' Artest injures head, elbow in fall down stairs at home
"LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Los Angeles Lakers forward Ron Artest has injuries to his head and left elbow after falling at his home.
Artest didn't travel with the Lakers to Saturday's game at Sacramento after tripping over a box and falling down a flight of stairs at his home on Christmas night, the team said in a news release.
He was treated at UCLA Medical Center, undergoing a CT scan and receiving stitches in the back of his head and his elbow. He's expected to be examined by a neurologist later Saturday, when the Lakers will be able to estimate when Artest can rejoin the team."

A Too Early Exit For A Great Coach . . . . .
Urban Meyer Stepping Down As Florida Gators Footbal Coach
"I have given my heart and soul to coaching college football and mentoring young men for the last 24-plus years and I have dedicated most of my waking moments the last five years to the Gator football program," Meyer said in the release. "I have ignored my health for years, but recent developments have forced me to re-evaluate my priorities of faith and family."
In other words, football was life and death. Until it really became life and death.
Florida State's Bobby Bowden, who will coach his last college football game Friday at age 80, always explained his longevity with a simple rule. Never make football your God. To say Meyer did that would be presumptuous, but those who knew Meyer would concede that football often made him a slave. Saturday, he broke the chains."

Miscellaneous Monday Memory (12/28/09) . . . . .
I hope that everyone had a great Christmas. This week we will be celebrating the ringing in of the year of 2010. So today, I will be talking about my 3 resolutions for 2K10.
1. To further the continued growth of this blog. It has come so far since its debut in October. Who knows what kind of funny findings or stories will be shared in the coming year. Oh the anticipation!
2. I have 2 goals for my golf game.
First, I look forward to trying out at least one new course each month. And hopefully, if all goes well this year, I will be able to take some time off and hit up the links in Las Vegas. Second, I look forward to breaking 90. So far my best score ever is 92. I am so close!
3. I hope to hang out with more of my friends this year. I have been in my own world few months, and I needed the time away to get some parts of my life in order. Now that my life is in better order, I will not be such an anti-social asshole.
So best wishes to everyone for a great 2010. May the year be one of the best that it can possibly be.
