I don’t want to make amends, I just want to make a mess.
That’s right boys and girls, Stiefmo is now an official member of the Stlkickball league. My team, “Good in Bed,” was the Division 3 winner last season and I will be helping them defend their honor on the field this season. With a name like Good in Bed, I know what you’re thinking, and the answer is yes, I am. The kickball league is great, beer drinking is encouraged, and it’s just a ton of fun. I’m glad the Captain finally talked me into joining for real. I highly encourage everyone to go register a team, stlkickball.com.
In the spirit of kickball, I was trying to think of funny team names. Here’s a couple I’ve thought of:
2 Balls, 1 Stroke - Uniballers - Suck My Kick - Freeballers - Where all my pitches at?
Now to get serious. I don’t understand how the United States can claim that invading Iraq was a means to instill democracy in the Middle East, when Iran is going crazy right now because of a rigged presidential election and have, as of yet, done nothing. The death total in a little over a week is 150 protesters who have taken to the streets trying to demand a recount of the obviously rigged election. Iran leaders have been shutting down cell phone towers and disabling internet connections, among other measures, to try to silence the protests, who have gone to online social networks, such as Twitter and Facebook in attempts to organize. Iranian leaders have also banned any foreign reporters from entering the country to cover this story. This is a huge human rights violation and if the UN was worth anything they would already be over there. Hopefully outside involvement will happen soon, because the people of Iran have been subordinated for far too long and these protest do not seem to be slowing down.
The Governator’s plane went down in an emergency landing earlier today after the cockpit of the plane filled with smoke due to a circuit fire. Schwarzenegger wasted no time and got on twitter to update everyone of his status. Although I may have come across favorable of twitter during the last paragraph, don’t be fooled. It’s dumb. 140 characters to describe what you are feeling? I’m way to much of a wordsmith for that. What’s worse is Ashton Kutcher’s twitter, it’s the return of text language where for becomes 4 and are becomes r. Blah, dumb. Also, what the crap happened to Arnold? In the past he would’ve just scared the plane into submission and it would’ve stopped burning. Arnold’s becoming such a pansy lately.
Item to review: If you haven’t already, go read Youth in Revolt. It’s absolutely hilarious.
Check back on Tuesday for your next update.
