The Tale of Rob Ford Needs to be a Book/Movie
Ok, Rob, you are a true mad man.
Can we all agree that this looks like a christmas list compared to SMOKING CRACK. These new allegations are just going to keep piling up….like this new one.
Rob Ford, do yourself a favor and go silently into the night. As much as I would like to see you continue on, do it for your wife, and all you have to eat at home…

The Most Emotional Scene in TV History
After doing the Michael vs. Toby blog I could not stop looking at clips of The Office. If you are a true fan of the show, or have a heart, this scene makes you weep every time.
I could watch this video 1,000,000 times and never get sick of it.

2.) Lunch
3.) Toby Returns
And because I couldn’t fit all of my favorites in the top 3, here is a great compilation video of Toby Flenderson and Michael Scott.

The Title Belt the WWE is Giving the Cy Young Winners is Cooler Than Any Other Sports Trophy
The WWE just making every other sports trophy look stupid. You’re lying to yourself if you say you don’t need this. This is by far the coolest award any human being can be given. A title belt with your face on one side and your team logo on the other. Class on top of class. Just shows you how smart Vinnie Mac is. Basically throwing the old Cy Young trophy under the bus. I wouldn’t be surprised if he challenged Bud Selig to a steel cage match at the Royal Rumble this year. He just gets more unpredictable as the years go on.
As a side note, what are the odds Scherzer and Kershaw ever pitch again? If I ever got a title belt from the WWE for any achievement I’d retire the same day. No Cy Young, MVP or World Series trophy can ever trump the title belt. Game, set, Vincent Kennedy McMahon.

Came across this song on my Pandora listening today. Haven’t heard it since I was in grade school. Figured I’d share it with you!

Rhode Island is So Lame
(Source) “CUMBERLAND, R.I. (WPRI) – Cumberland School officials sent an email to parents on Wednesday, notifying them one high school student has been diagnosed with whooping cough.
In the email obtained by Eyewitness News, school officials instructed parents to watch for symptoms of whooping cough, or Pertussis in their children.
This comes one week after the Department of Health confirmed eight cases of Pertussis at Ponaganset High School in Scituate.
While many people are vaccinated against Pertussis as infants, health officials said the strength of the vaccine weakens as they get older.
Symptoms of Pertussis are coughing, fever, and a runny nose.”
Shut down the state. Shut it down! One kid in Cumberland has whooping cough. Thank God I’ve been watching the Walking Dead because this is undoubtedly the start of a zombie apocalypse. Did you read those symptoms? Coughing, fever, A RUNNY NOSE! Why did this terrible disease have to come and invade my home state! We need to be in full blown quarantine mode right now. Anyone seen coughing, sneezing or wincing needs to be taken out before this gets out of control. Rhode Island will not go down without a fight!

P.S. What year is it? I thought whooping cough was cured 100 years ago.
Nothing Will Stop Me From Eating a McRib…NOTHING
The above picture has been hot fire all over the inter-webs. What you see there, if you don’t already know, is a what a McRib looks like frozen and before it is cooked. Looks like a mix between insulation and those road strips that they have on the side of the highway to alert you when you are drun…..sleepy at the wheel. Anyone out there who is offended by this picture wasn’t going to eat the McRib sandwich anyway, and honestly that means more for us. “Us” being the population who will be buying these by the truckload knowing that it is only a matter of time before they are taken from us again.
This is America, home of the processed foods. If you don’t like it, don’t eat it. Eat whatever looks appetizing to you. Just know, you are probably eating something else that looks equally as gross as the McRib does frozen, but not any where near as delicious when cooked. I can guarantee that this picture will not only leave McDonalds revenue on the McRib unaffected, but will increase sales. I’m hungry now. McRib city.

If I Was Going to Create a Bar Style Trivia, Here is How it Would Go
I have been to many a trivia nights over the years, and not one has been the ideal situation. They are either too long, too short, terrible food, too hard, or way to easy. This got me thinking. With all these trivia experiences under my belt I could probably make the greatest trivia game of all time. So here it is.
When and Where?
My Trivia night (from here-forth to be known as “El Preguntas” [“the questions” in Spanish]) would happen on the best night of the week, Monday night. This might sound insane, but Monday really is my favorite night of the week. What’s better than drinking your work sorrows away after the first day of the week? Nothing. Go ahead, get loaded up and play trivia, Tuesdays don’t count as real work days anyway. Oh and did I mention Monday Night Raw will be on all TV’s during trivia? Game, Set, Vince McMahon. (During football obviously half the TVs will be on MNF)
The “where” doesn’t matter as much as the “when”. Just as long as it’s a sports bar withs lots of TVs and egg salad on the menu.
Rounds & Rules
El Preguntas has 4 rounds of trivia goodness.
Round Uno
Pictionary – One person from each team competes in 5 rounds of pictionary-style games. (each round worth ten points)
Round Dos
Wrestling Entrance themes – Self explanatory. I play music, you tell me who strutted out to it. 10 themes, 2 points for every correct answer.
Round Tres
Physical Challenge – Arm wrestling, one-on-one basketball, 10-rounds of boxing…whatever i’m feeling that night. Tournament-style, with the winner receiving 10 points and second place receiving NOTHING.
Round Cuatro
Mental Challenge – Math equations, optical illusions, and word problems. 10 questions worth 2 points each.
And there you have it, El Preguntas. A no-nonsense trivia night for you and all your friends. I really don’t think any bar outside of Tijuana will hire me, but it doesn’t hurt to dream.

PS- Any and all tiebreakers will be decided by a steel cage match.
