Sweatpants Tent's blog: "Random Thoughts"

Speaking of Hat Tricks...F YOU DETROIT and your team of dirty russians.  The Avalanche didn't deserve that.  Jose Theodore needs to retire.  BRING BACK ROY!!

Why the F does everyone find it necessary to look at your sammich when you are ordering at Subway?  Then look at you like.."Ham on white?  don't you know how much sodium is in that?"  Yeah I know mother F'er and I like it.  OK?  You want some of this?  Huh?  I'll bust you in yout tuna on honey oat ass!

Did I mention I want to see Iron Man bad?  I was a Marvel comic kid growing up....I even had a homemade Captain America costume for a while...so seeing all these movies coming out is awesome.  But NOT as awesome as the new Narnia, Prince Caspian.  I cannot wait!!!  And F you for laughing.

Liv Tyler is single again.  I think she needs to select me for a weekend of tickle fights.  Or at least let me hang out with her dad.

If baseball players and basketball players can all smack each other on the ass as a way of saying good job...why can't office co-workers?  Doesn't seem fair.

Hornets in 6.  Celtics in 5..

So...my friend Heather and I headed out to Edgefield for Billy Idol.  I knew going in that we would be wading into a sea of mullets and the best aging rocker crowd that Portland had to offer.  Thankfully I was not to be dissapointed.  But first...the concert.  Billy came out blasting with Cradle of Love followed by Flesh for Fantasy, White Wedding (started acoustic and went electric) then hit To Be a Lover before breaking out the new stuff like John Wayne.  At the "solo break" the best LIVING guitarist out there Steve Stevens put on a F'ing SHOW.  He played a spanish solo that gave me the shivers and then busted into Led Zeppelin's Over The Hills and Far Away.  Of course once he hit Rebel Yell the crowd went nuts.  He encored with Hot in the City and Mony Mony.  My ONLY complaint about the concert was that he blazed though the concert...not as much crowd interaction as I would have liked.  But I will say this now and hear me clear....there is no better guitarist out there then Steve Stevens.  Not Eddie Van Halen...the only one I think that could have given him a run for his money...was Randy Rhodes.  But we'll never know.  OK.  NOW to the sea of humanity.  Sweet jesus.  On the way in we saw a skunk haired chubby girl in a WAAAAAAY too short skirt....a pink tiger skirt.  I saw rat tail mullets...I saw mini truck mullets...I saw clothing I haven't seen since the Whitesnake videos on 1986....it was a cluster.  One woman...we'll call her 'Pinky" cause she was wearing pink terry cloth shorts and a bikini top that barely contained her boobs.  I use the term boobs loosely because she looked like she was smuggling 2 lemons in tube socks (get the visual)  and she was shaking that well over 50 ass in her significant others face in some kind of lap/face dance.  There was the woman in front of us... her gross rat tail went down to her butt crack...which I am sure she is tickling herself with at this minute.  It was everything I expected it to be and so much worse.  Including the guy in the tank top and hair suit.  Yes it will be a concert to remember for a long time.  I only wish I would have been in the VIP area.

I don't know where to begin with this.  SOOO much has gone on since the last time I blogged...so this will be random and in no particular order.

I went to the Oregon State Fair again this year.  I was joined by Adam, Andrea and her family.  I had my first deep friend twinkie.  It was like a twinkie corn dog.  That was ok....but the funnel cake with choclate and bavarian creme.  Holy crap!  AWESOME!  I was sad that there weren't as many vendors as the years previous...but we still left with some sort of salsa maker thing.  It isn't a state fair if Beth doesn't leave with anything.  Once again there was a wide spectrum of unique individuals...but NO DEMOLITION DERBY!!!??  WTF??  I will be sending letters of complaint.

I had the opportunity to babysit Greg Oden's dog...Charles Barkley McLovin.  He's such a great dog!  Although he chewed up one of Beth's flip flops, he was very lovey with me and refused to go to sleep unless my hand was on him and he was laying with me.  He's welcome at my home anytime!

I can't wait for The Office to return.  I got season 4 on DVD and "farewell Toby" is one of the funniest things I have ever seen.  If you are not an office watcher, now is the perfect time to jump in.  Also HEROES....3 hours of fantastic!  And my sleeper hit is Fringe on Fox.  It's like X-Files only better.

When you go to subway and get a meatball sammich, and you bite the meatball and it's kinda raw...and then you complain...you should get a free sammich.  Not "yeah I checked the temp...most of them are at temp...some are too cool still...want another meatball sub?"  NO asshat. I don't want another raw sub.  I don't want the one I have...why would I want ANOTHER RAW SUB?

OK...so here is my discussion point for this blog.  Was 9/11 an inside job?  Watched all the shows, watched "Loose Change" and there are just so many things that I want to get to the bottom of.  Something just doesn't sit right.  Who knows.

Well I guess that's all I have for now.  Maddi will be waking up soon and with my back out it'll be everything I can do just to keep up with her.  I have seen more Dora the Explorer then I EVER needed.  Swiper NO SWIPING.  You parents will know what I am talking about.

Brett Favre is still the man.  I need a donut.
