10 Things to Think About on a Friday

This year is like a roller coaster that already hit its high mark and now can't wait to get to the bottom of the hill. I got to try out Iron Gate on Monday night, a traditional and upscale restaurant in Belmont of all places. Talk about old time Peninsula. I had escargot and peppercorn steak. Tuesday I went out and spoke a bit of French at French Tuesdays...not often I get to dust the tux off. Hopefully this weekend I'll be able to get out around a Saturday XC meet and a Sunday open house in the now brutal pumpkin traffic. As for the rest of you, you have until 5 to soak in the doldrums of work, so there's 10 things to think about...

1) McCain likes to talk alot about change, and how consistent he is, and how trustworthy and honest and perfect and heroic and intelligent and wonderful he is. So then why can you read a good 10 pages on why he isn't really any of those things?

2) For years, those of us interested in and willing to be friends with benefits hid in the closet of shame society made for us by calling us promiscuous or not BF/GF...looks like it's finally going mainstream...check out CNN's advice for being good friends with benefits.

3) It's a good thing we've sent troops overseas to fight for our freedom. That way, as they're fighting for our rights, we can eavesdrop on their private conversations!

4) If the Virgin Mary was any indication, we might be on our road to worshiping Jesus in shark form.

5) How would you like it if your significant other poured boiling water on your crotch as you slept?

6) With California set to vote on same-sex marriages, and Connecticut ruling to allow them, it appears some of the country is finally waking up to the idea that we can't talk about spreading freedom if we don't have it for our own citizens.

7) So Hugh Hefner is moving on. His long time girlfriend, interested in having children that due to low sperm count he can't provide, is moving out. What better way to bounce back than to find 19 year old twins to be your next girlfriends? How about 19 year old twins with records of assault and battery?

8) I don't know about you, but if living to 105 requires not having sex, I think I'll pass.

9) In the presidential debate the other day, McCain accused Obama of pork barrel spending for a "$3 million overhead projector." I guess at his age it's easy to confuse an overhead projector with a planetarium projector.

10) Finally, you should always have a DD. But what if your DD is drunk? Well, if he gets you home safe, that's fantastic, but if he gets pulled over and booked for DUI, you should definitely get in the driver's seat and try to drive away from the cops.

That's it for me today people. Take care of yourselves.
