 | Jan 12, 2004 - Just like a white winged dove... | Spitfire  | 
| | sings a song ...Sounds like she's singing...
Alright people, its BLOG time! This is the part of the year when I have no actual content, so I revert to spewing out some senseless garbage about my life which most people
should find boring.....and just to make it worse I'll do my best to write the whole damn thing in some obscure 19th century european vernacular. Or, ahhh, maybe not.
New year has come and gone, and perhaps the most noticeable difference to me has been my change of job. Oh yes, I'm still working for our great municipal government, but
they've finally managed to rope me into the central department of computer staff. This is a change is policy more than a change of function, in essence I will be performing similar
job duties in the same area (physically) for the same department, but I am now split between two supervisors and had a lot of my 'perks' stripped. Parking spot, car allowance, mileage - all gone.
In it's place I am allowed the use of a city vehicle....I can choose between a shitty '97 Chevy S10 truck or an equally shitty '97 Plymouth Voyager. You will note that they are both, if nothing else, shitty.
Needless to say I will be parking in the same parking spot even though it has been 'taken'. Luckily it takes about 5 years to re-assign a parking spot so I'm sticking around until they kick
me out. Oh, speaking of parking - if you're reading this Unit3, I got another parking ticket in your car - this time in an Impark parking lot. Damn I hate
impark....and without thinking I parked there without paying (as I always do) while forgetting that it was not my car. Normally I park in Impark parking lots everytime I visit downtown, and simply tear up
any ticket I get - I'd urge you to do the same. Legally Impark (or any private company, for that matter) has no right to administer 'fines' of any sort. Add to this the fact that neither of Canada's two
main credit bureaus care about parking tickets of any kind - even municipal.
Yes, they will send your parking 'violation' to a collection agency once in awhile, who will send you all of 2 or 3 letters before giving up. This really shouldn't matter to you at all seeing as how this is still just a parking offense and
will not touch your credit. At this point all Impark can do is take you to small claims court, on their bill. You do not need a lawyer to go to small claims court - in fact you can not have a lawyer. This is to provide everyone with an equal
playing field in front of a small claims court judge. The punchline: legally, since Impark can not give fines, the most they can 'sue' you for is the amount you 'forgot' to pay at the ticket booth. This is usually $3-$5 in downtown Saskatoon - and they
have just spent at least $100 to get that $5 for you. Of course, this will never happen. They can, however, tow your car if you repeatedly park in the same lot without paying, and bill you for the tow....but I have yet to see that happen. But
I'll let you know.
Hmmm, anyway - soul_d's quarter-century birthday came and went with 3 seperate parties. I was able to make it to the first 2, but I'm afraid thats about all this
old man's wallet can handle, so I must apologize to soul_d for not making it to the long branch (gay) on Saturday. Nevertheless, Friday at Shockwave/Dirtydrive
was good times and I had a hoot watching soul_d get pee'd out of his tree. Yeah, I said pee'd.
On the 15th, or soon after, I will be going back to the gym (gime), which I have successfully avoided for the past year and a half (has it been that long?). The advantage this time is that I have an actual
workout 'plan' to stick to which is quite specific, which I was lacking before. The point of said excercise is to get in shape for summer so that I can flex on the beach and attract numerous hot girls to make
Dawn jealous and numerous hot dudes to make Dog Pound jealous. My diet? Crackers and Vodka.
I have also managed to go nuts with budgeting lately. I've always kept a pretty close eye on my money, whether its coming or going - but now more than ever I'm striving to be a cheap-ass, and have been
since June. My plan was/is to pay off all of my debt by next June (not this June) - and believe me, between purchasing a $3000 stereo, a $4500 TV, a $3000 boat, a $1000 deck, and other assorted goodies,
including purchasing a house in need of roof repairs and student loan payments - I managed to rack it up pretty good. By June however, I will have paid over half of it off - and thats pretty good considering I have
still managed to eat occasionally. My reward for paying this all off.....well, I'd really like to begin to restore a classic convertible. I'm thinking a '68 Firebird...I've always liked those. We'll see how that goes.
Oh yes, before I forget - if you actually read this site, Rachel - I don't think you're a slut, I only wish you were. Dog Pound can explain to you the depth of my unhealthy
obsession with you, but I will save the readers from such torment. Maybe I'll write my feelings in an e-card and email them to you, of course then I'd have to know your email address. I'm sure a moderate amount of
stalking will turn one up! Heh, but on the chance that I will never see you again, we'll always have our meatloaf........ahhh.
But enough about that! For those of you who suffered through that inane babble, here's a new Protein Man comic for you
to feast upon. And if that dosen't tickle your fancy (and even if it does) - maybe you'd like to read MORE blog? Well then check out the newest BLOG on the net - The Essential JayB. But that's all for me....I don't even have any
pictures to show you!

 | Jan 09, 2004 - What a great idea! | Spitfire  | 
| | Just a quick update....I HAD to post this news story!
All I can say is - damn, smart girls :-)
| |
 | Jan 08, 2004 - New Years photos & D Mans birthday | Spitfire  | 
| | Just a quick update to let everybody know that the new years pictures are up (at least some of them) - just go here.
Also, I forgot to make an update wishing soul_d a happy birthday and Ukranian christmas because I was too busy attending a bikini-contest with him
at the dirtydrive. It's all good!
So to keep you entertained, check out the new comic today. We are taking a breif break from the neverending Protein-Man series, but don't worry - there
will be more!

 | Jan 06, 2004 - It's a new year! | Spitfire  | 
| | Ok, I have been served with an order from the supreme court to never mention fat chicks on my site again, EVEN THOUGH I DIDN'T! Stupid Supreme court.
|
Anyhow, although I am writing this update on the 6th, I am writing it for the 7th - which is Soul_D's birthday! I'm not sure what is going
on yet, but I'm sure that it will involve bikinis, and I will be there. This also might happen if we're not careful!
Anyhow, the new year is here - finally. I tell you, I was getting sick and tired of 2003 and I'm glad to see it go! Why? I can't remember, but I think its because of something Steven
did. The Dog Pound-free new years party went over really well, except that it wasn't 100% DogPound-free because he phoned in the
middle of it! Oh well its all good, I tried to pour him a vodka special over the phone and, well, I need a new phone.
I wish I had some pictures ready to post but I don't - your best bet is probably to watch Red Bandana's site for some pictures.
Thanks to her and Julianne for the 300 jello shooters, and thanks to Coz for the bar mix! Oh yeah and cudos to Jeff for showing up and
being awesome.
Everybody check out Dog Pound's birthday pictures at his site, or better yet look here to
view them in the RBlords Gallery. W00t!
|
And thats about it for today - keep checking back because I will eventually link to some pictures from new years....or maybe I'll even scan and post some myself....hey it could happen! Oh yeah, and check out the
webcam below, I found that in a bunch of the hot tub photos which didn't make the original 'cut'. Shit does that Rachel ever get around!

 | Dec 29, 2003 - FAT CHICKS RULE | Spitfire  | 
| | First of all...
GEORGE TAKAI DOES NOT KNOW WHAT I DID LAST SUMMER!!
Second of all, I hope you all remember to attend my super awesome Dog Pound-free new years party this Wednesday night.
Now, you can truley let loose and show the world how crazy you really are without the pressure of having to act nice around Steven (This was the #1 complaint from last year).
ALSO - although this year is 100% cocaine-free, mention my website and you will possibly receive a mini pitcher filled with some sort of alchohol-based substance and a complementary
jello shooter. All I can say, is
PLEASE bring mix because we are going to be short!
Alright...now that I've spread the good news, I'd like to point out that I love beautiful women. I don't know what it is about beautiful women, but they're just hot. However,
I do have a somewhat different taste in women than do many of my friends. Nothing too out of the ordinary, but while many guys are fantasizing about Lucy Lui, Cameron Diaz,
Christina Aguilera, etc....I prefer my fantasy women with a little more meat on them. No, I'm not in love with fat chicks....at least not really fat chicks :). I prefer to keep my eyes on
more curvy full-figured women like Drew Barrymore, Kate Winslet, and
Jennifer Lopez (ok, J-Lo). Although these girls are by no means fat, they have enough meat to give them some seriously sexy curves. Why am I bringing this up all of a sudden? Well I somehow
came across this webpage praising 'big women'. I'm glad to see he uses Kate as an example of a perfect shaped
woman :)
Seriously though, I don't agree with 100% of what this guy is saying, but I thought it was interesting how he credits the typically homosexual-dominated fashion industry for the showcasing
of very thin, boyish figured young looking women.
|  |
Maybe he's onto something there? I also thought it was interesting about how you always see these women posing at uncomfortable looking angles,
to create the illusion that they have femine curves. This could definately explain why so many female pop celebrities look much better in photo shoots and videos than they do in 'surprise'
public shots....there are a few exceptions of course. However - when you look back at how long this trend has been around, it really hasn't been that long. Throughout the 30s, 40s and 50s full-figured
healthy looking curvy women were considered the most attractive - I guess I just have to wait for the trend to come around again!
Anyhow...gotta run out and eat. So feast your eyes on the next installment of Protein Man....that should keep you busy for awhile.

 | Dec 23, 2003 - Merry X-Mas!? | Spitfire  | 
| | Almost Christmas....has everyone got their shopping done? For the first time ever I think I'm actually done shopping BEFORE christmas eve. Now I can just sit back
and wait to celebrate the big J's birthday. I've decided, based on other recent birthday traditions, that on the 25th I should down 5 mini-pitchers of holy water.
|
Aaaanyhow, Dog Pound's bday bash last weekend went really well! I managed to meet my previous record of 5 minipitchers,
unfortunately drinking 3 rum&coke's before the bar prevented me from breaking the record....but it was good times besides! Since I don't really have any pictures of the night myself,
I've included a picture of Greg Prediger taking a leak in somebody's gastank the next morning after he woke up on somebody's lawn hungover. The funny thing is, he wasn't even
at the party. Good times!
I do remember giving Shea Adonis a hard time about drawing some additional comics for the website, and he actually did! In fact I have two of them now, and let me tell you - they
are gold material. I'll post the first one today so check it out!
|
For those of you who like to see large military vehicles crashing (Dog Pound) - here's what happens when your helicopter doesn't quite
make the landing on the aircraft carrier. Youch...
Oh well, Merry Christmas and all that stuff if I don't update before then....have a good one. Afterwards make sure to rest up for the big New Years party at my place. For a look at how crazy it *could* be,
have a look at the update from last year...w00t!
| |
 | Dec 18, 2003 - Too many updates in one month! | Spitfire  | 
| | Well, Dog Pound's birthday is coming up, and if there is one birthday you are going to remember this year it is going
to be his (thats a fact). Soul_d has even prepared a special flash video for the occasion
so have a look - all the details are there.
And if you would like to see a breif sample of what will be happening on Saturday, take a look at this comic drawn by none other than Unit3.
And last but not least - please visit this webpage for some hilarious xmas flash adventures. DO IT. And don't
let the cute faces fool you, they are really horribly evil little tree animals.
I guess that's it...for those who don't already know, I will be hosting a New Years bash this year. There will be some special guests attending, including Kujo from the
wintery lands of Morinville, and myself. What else could you ask for? Unfortunately Dog Pound won't be making it this year, but that just means we will have to
destroy him this Saturday.
I believe our friend redbandana ha agreed to make a few jello shooters for the party, while I am promising to be serving some Vodka-special minipitchers
to all those you want some. JayB has also promised to beat the crap outta some guy at the party that he doesn't know....so if you don't know JayB....
COME ON DOWN!!
Aight!
