The Conundrum

I'm eating a sandwich.
It's terrible, and I mean really awful.
So I should stop eating right?
But wait, it's a sandwich.
I'm not programmed to stop eating a sandwich.

I saw a blue jay and a cardinal.

Give Thanks.

Don't pray when it rains if you don't pray when the sun shines.

Thank you for this day.

Vin Rouge

I'm having a glass of red wine.
From a box.
Stay classy San Diego.

Chess Battles From Heaven, III

Johnny Appleseed
vs
Copernicus

Despite Johnny Appleseed's effective planting of his pawns all over the board, Copernicus concerns himself with defending the center and wins.

2008 Song of the Year

This was my song of the year for 2008, I just had to listen to it this morning:

MGMT : Time to Pretend

Let It Be

At the 2:20 mark of "Let It Be", there is a little beep in the background that sounds exactly like someone is pushing a button on a phone.

Chess Battles From Heaven, II

Napoleon
vs
Douglas MacArthur

Napoleon attacks with the Bishop's Opening, things dont go his way, he offers a draw. When MacArthur accepts the draw, Napoleon rescinds his offer (typical!) and punches MacArthur in the nose.

MacArthur wins by forfeit.

Oatmeal

This is the ultimate:

1 Cup of Oatmeal (raw baby!)
Milk
Chocolate Chips
Maple Syrup

A close (healthier) 2nd place:

1 Cup of Oatmeal (cooked)
Maple Syrup
Blueberries

Raise your hopeful voice...

You have a choice. You've made it now.

JD

From early September through late December, I listened to this song about ten times a day:

Love Will Tear Us Apart

Chess Battles From Heaven

Jimi Hendrix
vs
Che Guevara

I know what you're thinking... how could a guerilla military strategist lose? But my money's on Hendrix.

My Lunch Today...

1 apple.
1 banana.

No offense to the Gods of Apples and Bananas, but this is fekkin torture.

Buddy Holly RIP

Everyday It’s A-Gettin Closer. Goin Faster Than A Roller Coaster. Love Like Yours Will Surely Come My Way. Everyday It’s A-Gettin Faster. Everyone Said Go Ahead And Ask Her. Love Like Yours Will Surely Come My Way.

No Woman No Cry

What does it mean? I love this song, but I'm not really sure what Mr Marley is saying...

Is he telling a woman not to cry?

Is he saying without a woman in your life, there will be no pain?
