| So:
I took some time off last week and went up to atlantic city with some friends. Basically, the first i believe 14 hours we were there me and jon buck gambled. Then i slept for like 3 hours, and i gambled some more. then i believe i slept some more, then gambled some more? it's all a blur. Basically if you're at a roulette table, never bet on the numbers 23, 35, and 36 because you will without doubt lose all your money. damn 35...
amazingly though if i just counted tables games I would have been even for the trip, but since i decided to play poker (which I'm supposed to be good at) I was down overall for the entire trip.
either way, we got back on monday at like 11 because of the bad weather in philly, and basically i slept for about 14 hours straight. The sleeping large amounts is a very common theme for me during vacation times. Also, because of the large amounts of sleeping and the inability to sleep the next day, there is alot of staying awake and doing things.
The last 4 days I watched 4 seasons of grey's anatomy. Here are the things that I've come to consider about Grey's
1) how the hell do they have any time to learn how to be surgeons when they have sex all the time?
2) kate walsh>ellen pompeo
3) preston burke >george o'malley
4) mcsteamy>mcdreamy (yes, i felt gay while typing this)
5) derek needs to walk on the stairs more and stop getting in elevators
6)i wish atlanta had ferry boats
7)apparently getting married on the show requires that you have an affair
8) I'm going to miss addison
9) Izzy is an idiot and I do not like her character, but i did like denny
10) Lexie is better looking than meredith
11) how is it that ellen pompeo and sandra oh are like in their late 30's but are in the same program as chyler leigh who is 26, don't people notice the difference? just stupid
12) i like callie and bailey more than the other female doctors
13) i liked burke's vows, james you should take note, although you aren't a heart surgeon so it doesn't really work that well
14) hahn is the girl from silence of the lambs, she rubs the lotion on her skin or gets the hose again!
15) i didn't notice until like 2 seasons in the titles of the episodes are songs
16) i also wonder what it would be like to be a doctor. mostly because they seem to be deprived of sleep constantly and well, i sleep like 9 hours a day on average, so i don't think it'd be a good mix.
17) I wonder if the best surgeons would go to seattle, instead of like LA or something
18) gotta like a dude who lives in a trailer while making 2 mill a year
19) george needs to grow a back bone
20) meredith is pretty annoying for a main character of a tv show
I also saw a few movies while i was on vacation.
Prince caspian is pretty good. about what i expected.
iron man was good, you should watch it.
There will be blood was good as well, although it seemed like it was reaching all the time and never quite as good as i hoped it would be.
before the devil knows you're dead was good, the first 2 minutes are ... entertaining...
the accused is kind of difficult to watch at times
nancy drew is entertaining in it's own way (yes, i saw nancy drew)
indiana jones is the shit, me and my mom have a date to watch the new one this saturday
so catherine tells me that there is now a transgender group of singers in korea, my how far we've come.
so my new boss just walked into my cubicle and shook my hand, her hands are COLD, like REALLY cold. it's kind of uncomfortable.
I'd really like to get under 90 the next time i play golf. however, i seem to lack the concentration necessary to make 89 good swings, instead i make about 85, then i make about 5+ each round that literally do nothing to accomplish the goal of putting ball into hole. actually, that's probably a lie too, cause sometimes 1 bad swings requires me to make 2 more to fix it.
I should probably start paying more attention to politics. I think basically all i know is that
mccain = liberal republican
hillary bashes obama
obama's pastor bashes obama
obama bashes hillary
dems bash hillary
silly people
and now. I'm going to rant about basketball. The lakers look like the best team in the nba. chris paul looks like the best player in the nba. I think the only team that can beat the lakers at this point is the spurs because they match up the best against them. I think the bowen on kobe with duncan killing gasol and TP getting into the lane is better than d fish guarding paul, and kobe basically ripping their hearts out cause their starting 2 guard is mo P. basically i feel the hornets series will be just like the utah series because they just don't have anyone to guard kobe when it's crunch time. if the lakers win this year, i'm going to be pretty sad because that team is going to be absolutely amazing for the next 5 years.
the east is a mess. boston does not look that good, and billups may still be hurt. how boston gets pushed to 7's against the hawks and the cavs when we're so bad is beyond me. i think detroit is going to beat the celtics because prince can make pierce work, sheed will play kg pretty close, and there is absolutely no way in the world that ray allen keeps up with all those screens that rip is going to run him through, especially considering he looks like a corpse as is. I think rondo will match up alot better with billups than people think, he's feisty and a really good on the ball defender.
in the end i think the lakers are going to win and people will realize how good kobe is. not that i don't think if you put lbj on that team, they don't win either.
everyone should youtube andrew johnston, he's on britains got talent, he's the new paul potts.
i like watching dancing with the stars, i think kristi is going to win, and she's really hot for a mom.
I need a new tv show to start watching now that I've seen all of grey's. here are the ones I'm leaning toward.
boston public
friday night lights
the wire
weeds
crossing jordan
any advice would be appreciated
anyhow, it's time to eat lunch, i might write some more later.

| This entry will be posted at 5:00 PM, it is now 4:48, meaning I have set aside 12 minutes for this entry, and not a minute longer.
I've decided to write about...
I honestly don't know.
Well, we're going to go Colorado to snowboard this saturday. I'm a little nervous because I'm 100% certain that I will fall constantly. Plus I'm not exactly a top physical specimen so I'm sure I'm going to be sore and bruised all over. I'd imagine alot of you out there are saying "well, James will teach you how to snowboard," but if you're under that impression you're sorely mistaken because I'm literally 100% certain that James will stick around for 30 minutes to make sure I don't kill myself, then promptly leave me.
I've been watching alot of the West Wing lately and it's sort of got me thinking about politics. I think I'm old enough now that politics will actually in some way or another impact my lifestyle, so I figure I should start paying attention. This is actually one of the few ways that I differ from Davis, he's more of a lefty, i'm more righty. I'm still not really sure where I come down on alot of issues, mostly cause I'm just not well informed enough to make a decision. I feel like that admission pretty much can be summed up as "I'm stupid and I don't know anything," but I'm going to more so lean towards, "I want to be pragmatic and well informed to come to a metered and reasonable stance."
Anyhow, I'm going to make a dramatic shift from serious world politics to Viggo Mortenson's dong. I saw Eastern Promises yesterday and I really could have lived my life without watching that bath house scene. It was bloody and violent, but I don't think I can really get over the fact that dude was naked the whole time. Apparently it's Jin's favorite scene in the movie.
I lost a bet with Buck that the Giants were going to lose to the packers. I seriously can't believe that Favre laid such a giant goose egg in the final half of that game, that grant couldn't get going, and that thynes missed 2 shorter FG's to finally make a 45+ yard FG, in OT, in -23 degree weather, in a stadium that had never yielded a 40+ yard FG in the playoffs to win the game by 3. So I had to buy him Ted's for dinner. I think I'm going to make another bet with him about the Patriots and Giants, but I don't I can get him to agree to it for no points, so I'm leaning towards giving him 7. We'll see if I can sucker him in.
This is what Davis wrote to me on Gchat
gogogoo!!!
i think i'm going crazy
my sanity is slowly slipping away
i think it's the water!!!!
Sent at 4:08 PM on
Tuesday
john: what is wrong with you mang
i'm feeling a bit crazy
like i'm about to just run around and take of my clothes
crazy
and just start laughing and rolling on the floor
is this normal?
off*
i don't really know what's wrong with this kid, I'm leaning towards syphilis.
Either way, i'm out of time. I'm write some more later. I've been watching a lot of movies, I'll give my 2 cents about the academy awards probably pretty soon. anyhow, for now, I'll see you guys.

| It has been 1908 days since I made a Xanga Site, I don't really know what to do with that number, but it's quite large.
Everyone should watch the following movies:
No Country for Old Men (the ending is kind of weird and it's very violent, but still well worth watching)
Enchanted (Amy Adams is going to be a big star after this movie, yes, I went to watch this alone, no girl would come watch it with me)
Everyone should not watch the following movies:
Alvin and the Chipmunks (Yes, I did see this movie, shut up I hate you all)
Watch these if you're bored:
Golden Compass (It's like a bad version of Narnia, I can't even compare it to Lord of the Rings, cause it's substantial worse)
National Treasure (Your IQ will drop a good 5 points, but it's fun to watch)
I Am Legend (Will Smith is freaking diesel, the ending is a straight up cop out)
Movies I wanted to see, but never got around to:
American Gangster (I was going to watch it, but it's like effing 5 hours long, so I saw chipmunks instead, I will now congratulate myself)
Eastern Promises (Naomi Watts is so pretty, plus Viggo apparently gets naked and kills lots of dudes)
Michael Clayton (Supposed to be smart and compelling, just never did around to it)
Movies I want to see:
Juno (Ellen Page is so spunky)
Charlie Wilson's War (I like Aaron Sorkin's writing, even if he swings widely to the left)
Atonement (Cause Keira makes my peepee tingle, although admitting I want to see this movie kind of eliminates the possibility of me having a penis, so I'm in a little quandary here)
Sweeney Todd (Johnny Depp makes my peepee tingle, just kidding, no really, i'm kidding)
Persepolis (It's a black and white animated film, about the Iran-Iraq conflict, and a girl growing up there)
And the movie I really want to see:
There will be Blood (Daniel Day Lewis is one hell of an actor, wish he did more movies)
(I was going to give little links to all the movies home pages, but then I once again realized I still don't know how to do that) Ok, that's enough with movies. Update time:
I had Xmas dinner at my house this year, we had the whole family come over. I decided to cook and James deep fried a turkey, and everything came out pretty tasty. Jin gave me a copy of Bones Season 2 (Which everyone should see), which I had already seen online, but none the less still watched over again and deprived myself of sleep for. She also gave me some Axe stuff, I think this is her all too unsubtle way of saying "stop being a scrub ass, clean up, and find a girlfriend." So far her efforts have been completely for not as I still have not gotten a haircut and my life is a sausage fest.
I passed the FE Exam, it looks like I'm on my way to becoming a full time engineer! Actually I don't know if that ! is deserving cause well, I'm on my way to being an engineer.
Chops was VERY good, probably one of the top 3 meals I've ever had in my lifetime. 771.24, what a great number.
My Mom says I eat too much candy, my waistline agrees with my mom. I'm currently eating Sweet Tarts.
I'm very bad at basketball. I'm very bad at poker. I'm very bad at golf. I'm awesome at life (The last one was to boost my confidence)
The Hawks are currently in 4th place in the eastern conference. If we make the playoffs and get home court, I'm going to game 1, who wants to join me? Also, I think if we had Chris Paul (who put up 40-9-5 last night as I'm writing this) we'd probably have the scariest team out there right now, except portland, who is equally as scary, but we got Hortford, so I'm really happy about that. Detroit is a better team than Boston, and the bulls suck, which brings me endless amounts of joy as I get to mock Mike and Jimmy. Kobe and the lakers are really good, good enough to get past round one in the west, but I don't think good enough to beat the Spurs, who still in my opinion is the best team in the NBA. Dwight Howard looks like he could snap my neck like a twig. Shaq looks like he's offiically done, straight up done. I love basketball.
The Falcons are sucking terribly, but projections show we should sign Matt Ryan, QB from BC, so I'm really looking forward to that, he looked really good when I saw him play against tech. Bobby Petrino can go eat a cock. I hope Vick is currently eating a cock in prison. I think it's really funny that when I was in raleigh I was telling someone that Dallas was going to lose and UNC wasn't that good, and subsequently Romo laid a bagel infront of Jessica Simpson and Hansborough got hurt. I also have to say that Brady seems to be doing better than Romo, i.e. Giselle>Jessica. I think this Patriots team is also the most dominate sports team I've ever seen, and since they get the 49ers first pick, they will just get better next year. The only team I can really think of that's close it the 72 win MJ bulls, but that was simply cause MJ was an animal, more so than the team being amazing.
I like watching America's next top model. It's not really cause the girls are amazing looking, which is nice, but mostly cause they aren't altogether that amazing looking. They seem incredibly normal, but then they pose and take their pictures, and they look just stellar. It's just crazy and very intriguing at the same time.
People need to invite me as friends on Facebook so I can stalk you. If you don't put up photos don't bother, cause that's basically all I look at.
I need glasses, still, if you're in atlanta and want to help me pick out glasses, I'd appreciate it.
Anyhow, it's lunch time, so I'm basically done with this entry, I've got about 20 pounds of leftovers I have to go eat. PEACE! I'll write more tomorrow probably cause no one is doing anything at work today. So i imagine there a few of you guys out there that are at work too with nothing better to do.
