Hey everyone, long time no see! Just got back from a two-week vacation in lovely Costa Rica, hence the huge lapse in blog entries. My whole hearted apologies for not providing nonsensical pop culture related reading for all of my faithful readers. Yes, all three of you.
In any case, since it has been a while since I've set ground on American soil, I don't have a topic in mind, so this entry will just consist of a stream of random thoughts. Like what? Well, like this...
- According to the lastest televison ad, Kung Fu Hustle is the "number one kung fu comedy in America!" Isn't that like saying this blog is the number one blog written by a Chinese guy named Warren who just got back from a vacation in Costa Rica? Hmmm... I think I will proclaim that fact proudly.

- I don't want to sound blasphemous, but am I the only one who thinks there should be an age limit on new popes going forward? It seems odd to me that the voice of the Catholic church is almost always someone on the brink of being wheeled around on motorized chair. Our new pope is 78. Is that not just days away from spoon-fed applesauce and Depends? I'd say that a fair shake would be that each pope must be no younger than say 55 and can serve until they are 70, max. That way you get them while they've had a good amount of time to experience life, but you also get to shuttle in a new pope before the old one starts to misplace their teeth on an hourly basis. Um yeah, I'm going to hell.
- Is it me, or are the last 3 "candidates" on The Apprentice people that no sane corporation would ever hire? Choosing between Tana, Craig, and Kendra would be like choosing between Mallory Keaton, Steven Urkel, and Jessica Simpson to run your corporation. Next season they should just combine that Paris and Nicole show with The Apprentice so they can cut to the chase with loser job applicants.
- The Family Guy is back on May 1st! No real joke there or anything, I'm just happy about that fact.
- Why does no one watch Scrubs? It is hands down the funniest sitcom on television. I defy you to watch an episode and tell me it's not funny. Unless it's a repeat of the episode that guest starred Clay Aiken. If it's that one, you're better of watching Joey or something, and that's not a compliment.
- Tom Brady hosted Saturday Night Live while I was gone, which I would have missed if not for TiVo. This is one of the rare occasions where I'm actually sad that TiVo did its job. Stick to tossing the pigskin, buddy.
- My friends and I entertained ourselves during our long drives through the Costa Rican countryside by naming who the hottest celebrities were. Consensus pick for the guys -- Jessica Alba and Kristin Kreuk. For the gals -- that guy who played Tad Hamilton in that one movie and now is on Las Vegas and that one dude from Sex and the City who dated Samantha.
- Artists on heavy rotation on my iPod the entire trip -- Interpol, Death Cab for Cutie, Rooney, Rilo Kiley, and Phil Collins. What? Like you weren't rocking out to Genesis back in junior high? Please.
- I saw that movie Beyond the Sea that Kevin Spacey made about the life of Bobby Darrin on the plane trip back to the U.S. Man, I wish I had slept instead. Don't get me wrong, Spacey can croon a good tune, but that movie sucked eggs. And not the regular white eggs. It sucked those weird brown eggs that no one ever buys, but are always sitting there next to the white eggs at the supermarket.
- Go Yao and the Houston Rockets!
- Go Kobe and the Los Angeles Lakers... oh wait, they also sucked brown eggs this year and didn't make the playoffs.
- Saying to learn if you intend to visit Costa Rica -- pura vida! Trust me. If you go, you'll know what I mean.
Ok, enough for now, gotta get some sleep...
