Could it get any better? Not only did the Steelers STOMP the New England Patriots, but in doing so Pittsburgh broke the Patriots 16 game winning streak (including last year's superbowl) AND rookie QB Ben Roethlisburger is now 5 and 0. What a perfect way to end a great Sunday.

Ashlee Simpson, Mili Vanilli; seperated at birth? |
I got home last night, in time for a little Saturday Night Live. You know, its not as funny as it used to be. The funniest part however was unintentional. Ashlee Simpson was the musical guest, definately the ugliest least talented of the two sisters. On her second song, she came out, swayed around and... started singing the SAME SONG. BUT, the mic was at her waist, and her lips weren't even moving! Either this was a B kung-fu movie, or she was fakin it. Her recorded voice faded out in an echo, and her band just kept jamming. So what did she do? She did a jig. Thats right, she broke out in a good ol' fashioned hoe-down before she stumbled off stage embarressed. Good for her. You know, in the old days, rockers had to slave away in smokey hole in the wall clubs for years before they got the recognition. Rappers sold crack (well, maybe not Ja-Rule, but he sucks) till they got onto BET. Ashlee Simpson's daddy got her a deal. At the end of SNL she tried to blame it on her band playing the wrong song. Oh well. Only time will tell if this was the end of her 15 minutes of fame.

Steelers baby, we get ours! |
Pittsburgh baby, what!!!!! We back in this. 5 and 1. I'll admit I was skeptical about Ben Roethlisberger, the Steeler's new QB. Of course, thats cause I'm a huge Kordell Stewart fan (still!!) and still bitter about coach Cower's makin him be strictly QB. Anyways, ancient history. So I was hopin, but not expectin much from Ben, but he came through. 5 and 1 so far for my team. They even slammed the cowboys in their own house. Be expectin big things baby!

In the army now (minus Paulie Shore) |
The golf cart is alive! I hadn't driven my golf cart since the batteries went bad a few months ago. Since they're so expensive, I almost gave up on it. However, I decided to chance it and take the batteries back to Costco where I bought them. Costco seriously rocks. They didnt even look at them. They just gave me store credit and I got new ones! With my cart excitement renewed, I decided to "pimp" my golf cart (I'm using that term loosely) by painting it army green, to match the camo seat cover I made. I also bought some speakers and hooked em up to an old car amp. Now I roll to class with my iPod blasting, hehe. Tons of people want to buy my cart of me now, especially since its so perfect for a small community like Laie.

Engadget & my 2 seconds of web fame |
Well, my humble blog felt what it was like to be a real website for a few days. My previous post on Snoop dogg's iPod got linked to Engadget.com. usually my blog gets 10 to 20 hits a day from friends, family, and randoms. After the Engadget post on Monday, I got 700 hits! Crazy, huh? Around noon here in Hawaii i couldn't even log on to my own blog. Now I need to step up my game and write some stuff actually worth reading, or at least funny. Or maybe vica versa.

Snoop's iPod |
Caught this in Snoop Dogg's latest video, "Drop It Like It's Hot". A little advice: Don't drop it, even though it probably is hot. I doubt Snoop got Applecare on it. Sure 50 Cent did the iPod video already. And P Diddy iced it out first, but come on. P-diddy aint got nothin on Snoop. the Snoopy D-Oh-Double. My question: why's it gotta always be the HP iPod that gets the bling treatment? Haven't these gangsta rappers ever heard of Macs? The name's even fitting! He's even doing his "C-walk" around with it in one part of the video. Next thing you know theres gonna be gang-colored iPods and if you're on the wrong side of town with the wrong color headphones, game over man. Maybe Apple was even wiser than we all thought by choosing a gang-neutral color for their mp3 player.

I can't believe we still have that car! |
Yeah, that blue station wagon is one year older than me, makin it 25 now. The sad thing is I learned to drive in that same car, and its still at my parents house! My parents are moving next summer so hopefully they leave the junked cars behind.

Three years later and its still a trip... |
Man, I still have a hard time believing the World Trade Center is gone. I stayed the marriot between the two towers in july 2001. The Picture is from our room, and you can see the Ground Zero plaza before it was demolished. you can kinda see the edge of the big ball fountain. Right after that trip I moved to Hawaii and I've been here ever since, so I havent had a chance to visit New York Post 9/11. Its just so sobering...

Hopefully I'll be able to put up the website soon... at any rate, we're back in business after a year hiatus. And yeah, thats a foosball table behind the magazine. We have mad tournaments in our house amongst the roomates.

Go robot, go robot, go robot... |
Theres nothing better than going to a late showing movie with a friend who is as obnoxious as yourself! Case in point, I, Robot. The movie "loosely" (see: not at all) based on the Isaac Asimov novel. I got to admit, it was better than expected. Given this summer's cinematic crap-fest, for e.g. King Arthur, Harold & Kumar, and (shudder!) AVP, I didnt expect much from Will "big willy-style" Smith. But the movie was okay! It made it alot better that whenever I made robot noises to spice up as boring part, everyone else in the theater laughed. To achieve the full effect, after watching I, Robot, watch the episode of Sealab 2021 called "I, robot". It is so funny, you'll cry laughing. Go pirate that cartoon off Kazaa today!
