There was a Oregon Ducks football game that night, and I made it into the traffic jam as the game was letting out. I needed to get gas, so I pulled into a busy gas station just off the freeway.

The fact that Iraqis are protesting in the streets of Baghdad is proof that the war is succeeding... Even if the very topic of their protests is the existence of US troops in their country. The last time major protests occurred in Iraq was around the end of the first Gulf War. The result of the protests? Mass genocide by Saddam Hussein of all those who the Gootshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18411133907509956970noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3378147.post-1065037953852176342003-10-01T12:52:00.000-07:002003-10-01T12:54:07.846-07:00Moving... Last weekend I started moving from apartment #6 to apartment #7. This morning at around 8:00 am I got the last item that I owned out of #6. I'm bruised, battered, beaten, and just plain beat. Because of the proximity, I didn't "pack" anything in boxes, I would just take it over to #7. Consequently I made far more trips than I probably needed to, but... that kind of stuff happens. the Gootshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18411133907509956970noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3378147.post-1064215290694907332003-09-22T00:21:00.000-07:002003-09-22T08:37:27.540-07:00the Underworld. I saw this movie over the weekend. I don't know why all the critics are panning the movie. Sure there are some scenes that are cut-paste from the matrix, and the vampires-on-the-subway scene was done in Blade... but still, this is an entertaining movie. I mean, after all, that's why we go to the movies right? To be entertained. Also... everyone can follow this logic.

I'm greatly saddened by the passing of Warren Zevon, Johnny Cash, and John Ritter. All of them were masters at their trades, and had an impact not only on the world, but on my personal life as well. John Ritter was the Jerry Lewis of my generation. He was a master at physical comedy, facial expressions and quirky mannerisms.

We had great seats, just 4 rows back of the Mariners dugout. The first batter of the game hit a hard grounder to Brett Boone (see previous entry) who bobbled it and got an error on the play.

I have a lot on my mind that I want to blog about. However, there is so much that it's almost overwhelming, so I tend to write nothing instead of just a little bit everyday. Anyway, the thing that is mostly on my mind (from a recreational standpoint) is VEGAS! I'll be going there in June to celebrate my sisters b-day. Vive Las Vegas!

My intention was to blog more often, however that is obviously not happening... To my readership (both of you) I apologize. Too much work going on and by the time I get home I don't feel like sitting in front of the computer... that's a bummer. Maybe I'll catch up this weekend. the Gootshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18411133907509956970noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3378147.post-923784592003-04-10T12:31:00.000-07:002003-04-10T12:31:44.686-07:00I'm Back. Well, after a very frustrating week of not being able to post... I'm back. However, at this time I am at work and just taking a quick break, so this won't be a long post. I took a "promotion" at work. To define promotion is not an easy thing. I've been asked to take on a lot more responsibility. Seems I made a good impression so far, so other teams are asking me to help them out. the Gootshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18411133907509956970noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3378147.post-919230642003-04-03T08:56:00.000-08:002003-04-03T09:36:03.000-08:00Strange Turn of Events. I mentioned in my blog entitled "War Quote" about a young female soldier that was ambushed. Interestingly enough this is the very PFC Jessica Lynch that was rescued by special forces. I find it curious that I have now mentioned a complete stranger twice in my blog... I'm trying to figure out if it has some meaning, or if it is just a weird coincindence of war.

A former head-of-state was being interviewed, they were talking about the war and loss of life. It was in answer to a question about loss of life in the war so far. He ran down a list (and I'm just pulling these numbers from memory) of deaths directly related to the regime of Saddam Hussein... one million deaths in the Iran/Iraq war, 80,000 Kurds wiped out, 30,000 Shia's inthe Gootshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18411133907509956970noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3378147.post-915616102003-03-28T11:22:00.000-08:002003-03-28T11:22:04.123-08:00Grey Sticky Tape.

My mom forwarded this quote to me. It's by Gordon B. Hinckley, who is currently the President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly referred to as Mormons...). He was giving a devotional speech at the BYU and said regarding all the US servicemen and National Guardsmen who have been called up: "We pray with earnestness and with faith that God will watch over the Gootshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18411133907509956970noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3378147.post-913872822003-03-25T19:24:00.000-08:002003-03-25T19:24:11.500-08:00Drinking at Work.

I am proving why you shouldn't write anything when your emotions are getting the better of you...

Well... I guess this is it. It seems weird to just go to work as usual, when we are bombing another country. I woke up this morning and thought, "I should turn on the news and find out what's happening with the war." It seemed like such a nutty thing to be thinking...

So I'm working on a new bit for my comedy routine... it goes like this: I have been to hell... To Satan's realm. I have observed the Devil's kingdom.

My brother brought up a couple of interesting points in an e-mail... I tend to agree with him, and here are my thoughts on his theories. War Protesters are the most selfish people in the world. They live in a country that allows them the freedom to go out into the streets and protest anything they want. Their latest protests are to stop the US from going into a country and the Gootshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18411133907509956970noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3378147.post-898074672003-02-26T17:13:00.000-08:002003-02-26T17:13:57.450-08:00My Blood Pressure. Right now my blood pressure is WAY too high. I just read a letter that some Monty Python guy wrote to a London newspaper about how he's gonna kill everyone on his street, using the same logic as Pres. Bush is using with Iraq.

I talked to my brother yesterday. He is being deployed to the middle-east next week. This will be his first actual duty assignment.

Seriously though... here's all I'm gonna say about the game (because I'm still upset about it!) (And just because I'm blogging about it, doesn't mean I ready/willing to discuss it) Most people think that Al Davis is Satan. That's not true.
