Updates

Well, I have not written anything for a while so here goes....

Rhode Island Boy has left the building. He actually really had not been living here since late last year; he would only come by a few days here and there because he basically shacked up with his girlfriend. Meanwhile, another guy with a Jeep had been staying there-sort of a sub let type deal. Well, last Tuesday I could tell something was up and now he is gone. Three other people have left as well.
So that is that. A year ago I would have been happy that he left, but now it just sort of feels weird. Like everybody else around me is moving on with life and I am still the same...kind of sad really. So, with that, there really aren't anymore interesting people here. Special Ed left months ago and now Rhode Island Boy is gone. That basically leaves Crazy Cat Lady and Fat Boy but they aren't very interesting......

Bend Over....here it comes!

Today, July 1, 2009, Colorado began its new fee schedule for renewing your vehicle registration. Governor Ritter instituted the new fees to pay for infrastructure improvements such as roads and bridges. I'm sorry, but didn't President Obama's stimulus package already give each state millions of dollars for infrastructure? The new fee for July-December 2010 expiration dates is going up $31, then Jan-Dec 2011 expiration's the fee will be $35 and so forth until the $40 increase is realized. I am not sure how expensive other states vehicle registration fees are, but Colorado already pays too much IMHO. This year, my 1999 (read 10 years old) car cost $68 to register. This included a $25 roadside emissions test; that means my registration was $43. Next year, the 11 year old car will be $74. Colorado is nice enough to only require a emissions test every other year. So in 2011 my 12 year old car will cost roughly $105 to register. And what do you get for that money? A colorful new sticker for the year.

So boo hoo right? Nope. I mean $31 is actually a lot of money, especially for people who are out of work or barely making it. And really, Colorado is not much for public transportation, we need cars here. Judist Priest!

Multiple Eons

So it is has been mulitple eons since I last blogged. Jaime and I were briefly talking about that today.

There is this girl (and I use that word loosely) at work who is an obvious lesbian. But I really think it goes beyond lesbianism. Lesbians can be really butch or really hot but this girl, Pat (like the ambiguous Saturday Night Live character) is neither.

I am wondering if she is a FTM, or Female To Male transsexual. Fascinating for sure because she looks like a typical Hispanic man, really butch, wears men's clothes and has garish tattoos on her arms. She eats like a man too. Anyway, Pat seems to really like this other girl, we will call her VR. And VR is a girl, long hair, nails that sort of thing and I believe she even has kids. But really, they are a little too close for just being friends. VR is probably experimenting-and there is nothing wrong with that-but if wanted to go lesbian, wouldn't you want a hot chic? Otherwise, why not just get with a dude?

I was reading about FTM's online and they are very interesting for sure. I read about this one FTM who actually prefers men. So, basically, she has become a gay man. That makes no sense to me. I have read about MTF trannys as well who want to be with women, so they basically become lesbians.

Anyway, that is what has been on my mind today.

Because I can

I am so sick of people talking about how President Obama is the first "African-American" president in the USA. Well, actually, he is the first mulatto president in the USA. He is half white; his mom had jungle fever but she was as white as my ass. So people really need to stop it with the first "African-American" president shit.

That raises another thing that pisses me off. For real, if you really were born in Africa and you come here (legally) then fine, you are an African American. If you were born in China and came here (legally) then by all means, you are a Chinese-American. But if your ethnic ass was born here then you are an American who happens to be of foreign decent (gee, just like the rest of us). Because otherwise, I am a German-Norwegian-Welsh-Yugoslavian-American. In fact, just for shits and grins, I did a survey today for a chance to win money and they asked about my ethnicity, so I skipped the Caucasian box and chose "other" and typed in German-Norwegian-Welsh-Yugoslavian. Because I can.

Also, today, as I was driving home on the other side of the street was a guy with California plates. So I honked my horn, he looked over and I gave him the finger. Because I can.

Rhode Island Boy/Apartment Update

Okay, so my neighbor, Rhode Island Boy (RIB) has been busy again. First, two weekends ago, his Malibu left and it has been gone since. Additionally, his girlfriend who also had a Malibu, has been driving her Jetta again. So, I think their company revoked company cars to save money or they aren't working there anymore. It is really nice though because now there are more parking spaces.
Today when I got home, his girlfriends car was parked out front and his Audi was gone-but he was home. Now, nobody actually buys an Audi, you lease an Audi. When he first moved here his RI plates expired 2/07 which means he bought it 2/06. Well sure as shit, three years later I am thinking he turned it in today. So maybe he will have a new car tomorrow.....
Also, The Albino has been spotted again as well. He is military and active, so I don't think he really has his own place. He has stayed with one guy here in the past, then last summer he was at RIB's place and now he is at this other guys apartment who is also military. The Albino also has traded in his Xterra and now drives a Nissan Titan of course with that damned Boston Red Sox sticker.
I know I am weird and I need a hobby, but these people are interesting.
Crazy Cat Lady. Okay that bitch pisses me off. She always parks right next to my car, and of course she drives a 2 door Honda Accord. People with 2-door cars have to open them wider to get out. She recently had it fixed because she does not take very good care of that car I have determined. Dings and scratches all over it. And the fools that fixed the trunk left off the Accord lable.
One of my neighbor's porch lights burnt out like two weeks ago. She never called to get it fixed! So my ass called maintenence for her and got it fixed LOL.
Special Ed. He has not stayed the night at his apartment since early November. For the past two weekends he came by for 10 minutes and then left again. Why the hell would you pay rent only to live with your 80 year old parents? He is fucked and I would love to know what is wrong with him mentally because clearly there is something wrong.
Anyway, those are the only updates I can think of. I noticed I had not blogged since early January so I thought I should write something-even though nobody reads any of my posts. I have so many things to teach the world.

Knight Rider

So, I was really pissed off when NBC decided to have a 2008 version of the classic 1980's TV show, "Knight Rider." I thought to myself "is Hollywood that desparate? Stealing British TV shows and Americanizing them was not enough, they have to remake classic TV shows?" Well, last night there was nothing on TV and I was bored with Youtube. The new "Knight Rider" was on so I decided to watch it. I have to say, it was not half bad. Sure it is funny that some pretty boy (with tragic tattoos) would land this cool job with the FBI and drive that bad ass Mustang. And back at headquarters there is this hot bitch who's father is an eccentric robot and supercar builder (read not really something that would happen in real life). Anyway, the show was not bad at all. I will have to catch it again next Wednesday, partly because I liked the damn show and also because it was a "to be continued" deal where Michael (Mike) has to drive Kitt at 105 mph to avoid a nuclear explosion. This was after he was trying to save an African Queen from a madman. I think the writers were still thinking things up during their strike.

California

When I was a kid in the 80's I will admit, I wanted to live in California someday. California used to be the place to live. Perfect weather, beautiful people, the ocean and genearlly the cultural capital of America. But things have changed. By the end of the 90's California became overcrowded, expensive and polluted. Not only that, but these 1950's shacks that should be condemded litter the Southern California landscape and cost upwards of $600K to own.

I just finished watching "Back to the Future" starring Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd. If you didn't already know that then you are a moron. Anyway, I always like to see where movies were filmed and what the locations look like today. Of course, movies were actually filmed in California back in the 80's, now they are flimed in Canada. At the beginning of the movie, Marty and Doc are at a mall; this is when the viewer is introduced to the Delorean time machine with JC Penney and Robinson's (later Robinson's May and now Macy's) in the background. I looked up the movie locations online and found out that this mall still exists. Puente Hills Mall, located in City of Industry, CA. The JC Penney and Robinson's are long gone; however, it should be noted that the mall now houses three Asian banks. The new mall owners have even redesigned the mall's interior to follow the principles of feng shui to meet the tastes of the Asian population (read Chinese, Filipino and Vietnamese) that now reside in the area. Now, these people were not born here, they moved here at some point. I am not really against these people, honest. But I am tired of immigration to the US. And so many chose the State of California to call home. Russians, Chinese, Armenians and Vietnamese and of course, Mexicans now live there and many commit crimes there. California is a "minority-majority" state and by 2050 many other states will follow suit.

Meanwhile, native Californians are leaving California behind, moving to Las Vegas, Phoenix and Denver like it is going out of style. California overall has become a cesspool of shacks, freeways and immigrants. I want our borders closed. Enough is enough, get these dirty people out of here!
