So I was showing Chrisitne the travesty that is the London Olympic Logo for 2012 when she asked me what does the Beijing Logo look like.  So I did a google search and found some really good logo concepts for Beijing that did not quite make it.  I don’t know why but I think they would have been better.

This one was pretty strong.  Unfortunately the balance is off on the design!

Here we get a well balanced concept. The dead Tibetan monks robes do not stand out enough.

This one is good but a little understated.  I don’t think the concept reads well

This one is technically not a logo but it shows the thought process of the final design.

I guess I am a Jackass. Yesterday morning I went to the coffee shop by my house. When I parked my car I was a little crooked and taking up a little past the line. Fortunately there was almost no one else in the parking lot due to it being past morning commute time. After I ordered my coffee and bagel I get into my car and notice the conspicuous piece of paper on my windshield. I was taken back by the little note. Due people have nothing else better to do with there time than to print and cut these things out. And then take time to put them on peoples windshields. due they actually think there making a difference or due they feel better about themselves for doing it. Well! It pissed me off. Which I guess is the point in it. After sleeping on it for a day I know find myself being amused by it. I guess I will have to pay it forward since I kept the fake parking violation. I can’t wait for the next victim. Maybe I will feel the same things that the guy felt when he put this on my car.

Last night after I saw Rambo, Cameron and I went to the Foxfire. If you have never heard about it it is located on Imperial at the 91 freeway. It is a typical bar slash dance area with a patio outside for smoking. words can not describe the beauty of this place. I don’t consider myself an attractive person at all. Maybe in my youth I was able to slay the ladies. I sometimes wonder how I have managed to keep my gorgeous wife next to me for all these years. But last night Cameron and myself where the two studdliest guys of all time. The people that go to this place are nothing short of magical. 90% of the guys there had mustaches and where all over 40. The women where awesome. I guess it can be described as a place for older people who are still trying to act youthful. Cameron ended up dancing with the oldest, longest hair, shortest women in the bar. She kinda looked like Charo. And then she invited her daughter onto the dance floor to dance with Cameron. I had trouble looking at him when the mother and daughter tag team started freaking Cameron. Other characters included 50 year old Indian pimp guy. Black pimps looking for older white ladies. several young couples that did not know any better, and really really really desperate women and men. I even overheard a young couple outside saying how embarrassed they where to actually be there. After Cam and I had our drinks and walked around the area a couple of times it was time to leave. I don’t know If I will ever go there again but my memories of that experience will last forever.

So i was talking to Geoff about the escaped Tiger and the jackasses that taunted it and I got to thinking about Grizzly Man.  The story about Timothy Treadwill living up with the grizzly bears in Alaska.  If you have not seen the movie you must.  The stupidity of this guy is amazing!  Anywhoo,  The final song of the movie is The Cowboys rendition of a Don Edwards song called Coyotes.  I found it on youtube so here it is.  It actually is a great song!

Every year I tell myself that I am not going to watch American Idol.  And every year I find myself getting sucked into the beginning episodes for the tryouts.  From there it is a crap shoot. If I care about someone, I continue to watch until they get eliminated.  Fortunately for me most of my picks get eliminated fairly quickly so I have never watched it to the end.  On the flip side…  I’m watching American Idol.  Do you see the problem with that?  I hate myself.  Kinda like that icky feeling you get when you finish masturbating and you think you are going to hell (Catholic guilt only).  Oh well,  I guess I will look forward to Lost which starts in a couple of weeks.  That show makes me happy.

Every year at Disneyland one of the Fantasmic leads would create a predictions list for the following year. Since I carried it on for the last couple of years I was there I thought it would be fun to bring it back and modernize it. Here is the list.

Please due not take offense to the predictions. There are in humor and light fun.

I’m not an environmentalist by any means. I do believe that this whole going green business is a bunch of bullshit that is now ingrained into our heads for the shear purpose of feeding more money into this embedded green economy that has spun in the last years. I do believe that we should try to recycle whenever possible. I don’t believe that humans are causing global warming. I do believe that Al Gore won a Nobel Prize because he is an ha-idiot (Gore impression). I do not label myself as pro environment. I do like to think of myself as pro human.

But seriously!!!!!

I bought this coffee cup at the Disney Store in Downtown Disney and the girl wrapped it for me. I was not paying attention until I got home. 17 feet later I finally got to my Mike Wazowski coffee mug. Seriously! Is this too much paper to wrap a mug in?
