Weekend, Sweet Weekend

Friday is a terrific day, everybody knows that. Its an even better day when there's a great Laker game on TV. This has been an odd Laker season for all Lakerfans because of all the injuries and whatnot.. kobe's trial, and the high expectations, that we haven't quite lived up to. At the moment, we are in third place. Two and a half games out of first. We just had our first really good game of the season, at home against the first-place kings, and are taking on the second-place Wolves tonight. I'm particularly pumped for the return of Karl Malone. And yes, i admit that I always hated him when he was with the Jazz, but now that he's on our team I not only appreciate his play. I appreciate all the soundbites. See. there aren't any other NBA players named Karl... at least not any good ones. Definitely none that spell it the way i do. I get to hear quotes after the game like "Karl really helped us out tonight." Karl makes key passes, grabs crucial rebounds, and makes the games that much more exciting. I'm so proud of me. The Lakers went on to embarass the Wolves... poor bastards never even made a game of it. Just like the Kings, they must be scratching their heads and wondering if they really have a chance. Lakers are now two games back of the Kings, with nine games to go.

Why Bullplop? I loved the Simpsons episode where Homer wanted to say Bullshit, but of course couldn't because you can't say shit on TV. It amuses me to imagine being outraged and screaming "Bullplop!"

After months and months of intending to start a blog on my website, I've finally sat down and done it. Blogs aren't anything terrific, nor are they cool for most people. This isn't something that I expect strangers to read. It wouldn't be interesting unless you know me, and even then its borderline. I think my life is interesting, and I sure get a kick out of it. For my many friends in Taiwan, and around the US, its the easiest way for me to communicate with them. I think its a damn shame that not everyone got to see me when I had my Mr T. haircut. Or that some of my friends didn't hear the story about how I took an airplane ride and sat next to a Penthouse Pet. I would like to share the disappointment I felt when after four hours of her buying me beers and fooling around under an airline blanket... i returned home, to my Mom's guest room even though "the Pet" had missed her connecting flight and would have to spend an unexpected night in San Diego. Why didn't I take her in? Because my Mom, bless her heart, was there at the airport. All excited to see me back. Ready to drive me home. sad... I hope in my next life I'm not reincarnated as a dude who lives at home when he's thirty. The Bullplop blog is just a way for me to share my stories like how I ran over my friend's mailbox in his own brand new truck... and nights when i drink too much and can't find my way back to my date's house. Those things need shared. And I think they belong on the web. Why Not? There's already a bunch of useless crap up there anyhow. Why not add more bullplop to it?
