Dude, how will I get to Thailand to surf?


British Airways has decided to ban surf boards from it's flights stating they are unsuitable for airport baggage systems. How will my baby Kelly get his board to Thailand to surf? Bummer :(

We didn't pay 4 this!


MIT sues architect Frank Gehry for a $300 Million dollar design project for it's Stata Center building in Cambridge, Mass. MIT alleges since it's opening in 2004 it's been falling apart noting leaks as part of the problems with the structure. Uuh...just caulk it with some silicon gel folks, it will be all right.

Uuuhh... No thank you!


After the UN's second meeting with Myanmar's government since September's Monk uprising, the Junta kindly tells Mr. Gambari no thank you to UN mediation in the matter. 'We've got this'(paraphrase)"We will welcome positive co-ordination and co-operation for Myanmar [Burma] affairs, but will never accept any interference that may harm our sovereignty,". So don't look for positive change anytime soon my peace lovin' subscribers.

What, no All my Children!


It's official, the Writer's Guild is on strike for better wages. So wave goodbye to your late night talk shows and soap operas; the other television shows will follow shortly after(they film episodes further in advance)
If the results from the 2000 SAG strike lead to all the awful reality shows we see now, what will happen with this one?

in the name of Terrorism

If you don't get what you want, take it in the name of Terrorism!


Musharraf calls a proclamation of emergency for Pakistan which has lead to hundreds of arrests of opposing politicians, judges and lawyers. Part of this emergency plan is the take over of the media, all tv networks and newspapers have ceased. And this is all done in what Musharraf claims to be an offensive against terrorism.

Da Weekend Update...

It's soooo easy to become a casual drunk in my neighborhood, there are pubs and bars on every corner. The Wall Tavern use to be my haunt when I lived on 53rd and Roosevelt Ave but lately I've been taking the train 3 short stops to Astoria for a drink. Friday night I decided to re-introduce myself to the Woodside Pub scene by having a Guinness at Sean Og Tavern on Woodside Ave. All I can say is goooood times ;) I love making new friends


Saturday: WARRIORS! we beat Port Richmond 36-14

Sunday: A day of worship at the Church of Football
Usually my son has a football game on Sunday so I don't get to watch a full day of games but I was able to watch the Jets lose in overtime :(
The Pats comeback and win over the Colts in the last 4 mins.
And most importantly my Cowboys beat the division NFC Champs 38-17
Check out the play of the night

Grown Folk all dressed up

We planned to go party hopping on Halloween but "Don" and I made it to only 2 parties and "Super Soul Sheba" came st8 to the last one. Worship Worthy's party was our last stop at 205 Chrystie. We partied with equestrians, Teen Wolf and 4 Deadly Sins (Centipede didn't show up).
