Previously on the 4077th Cell Phone...
I have recently decided that this is one of my favorite times of year for television viewing. First the NFL is in full swing every week as are Aaron Morey's biceps. I decided to get that reference out of the way quickly.
So when not watching football games, the rest of the week you can watch ESPN talk about the games for 3 days and then until Sunday they talk about the games that are about to happen. Pretty amazing. It's also quite exciting now because Major Leauge Baseball actually starts to matter at this time of year.
Another reason this is also exciting time is because all the networks are starting to premeire their new fall line up. Whether they be new seasons or new (ring ring ring). Oh sorry, its Mrs. Rudy Guliani, I have to answer this. Hang on a second.................................................................. .....................................................................................................................................................................
Alright as I was saying, whether it be new series or new seasons of old shows, it's a great time to watch TV. I took the liberty to check out a new show called "The Big Bang Theory" on CBS. It was pretty funny actually. I am not sure how long it will last, but I enjoyed. I would recommend Aaron Morey check it out. Then NBC premeired the Second Chapter of "HEROES" which was well worth the wait.
But one of the things I noticed last night was that many of the premeires had limited commercial interuption. We were informed of this fact because all of the shows that had limited commercial interuption were able to be shown in that manner because one company paid for the time that should have been commercials. So I guess the point is that it was a giant commercial for the one company, many of them car companies.
This is where the humor starts, and I know you've been waiting for it. This was a direct ad for Chevy. "The premeire of CSI is brought to you with limited breaks by Chevy."
Now is it just me or is the last thing Chevy should be sponsoring would be anything with "limited breaks"? I hope you can find the humor in that as well. I also hope somebody in the marketing department thought long and hard about that later.
Ladies and gentlemen take my advice, if you advertise that you do battery installations at Wal-Mart, you better darn well make sure your mechanics or technicians are able to remove a battery from an automobile especially if its only to replace a headlight. So really Wal-Mart really has no business being in the automotive care business.

Tomatoes Not Guns
Good evening everybody I am the internet's Tommy Nelson, please please sit down, it is really not necessarry to stand and applaude for a blog once it is loaded. Unless of course you have a really slow internet connection. It's a great day for America isn't it? Not such a great day if your a tomato in the city of Milwaukee. Today was what I believe to be the first annual Tomato Festival in Milwaukee. Essentially it was actually just an excuse to drink Bloody Mary's and for people to get drunk. The highlight had to of course occur when 60 participants were allowed to enter a cage, yes a cage, and have a great Tomato fight. I was fortunate enough to be able to participate in the first round of the fighting and let me tell you as a first hand witness to it. It was quite a seedy event if I do say so myself. No one appeared to be seriously injured, but boy was it exciting. Tomatoes flying every which way. Reminds this blogger of his days back in 'Nam. But then of course you have to remember that I wasn't born yet. The cage match was quite insane. There was a thin line of goo everywhere and the tomatoes were squishy. Insane, goo everywhere, and squishy. Remind you of anyone?
Not such a good day for "Republican" Presidential Candidate Rudy "Hobbit" Gulianni. While giving an address at the NRA or as some like to call it the National Rave Association, Mr. Rudy recieved a cell phone call from his wife. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NljO7w8fXKc
As you can see in the video it's apparently not the first time this has occurred. Now using this as my own political analysis platform, I am not really sure what message this is suppossed to send. Are these phone calls staged? I would have to say they are. The manner in which the former mayor reacts or rather doesn't react to the occurence makes me question the actual randomness of the event. So if that is true Rudy is using his family as an attempt to gain political clout. This to me is fairly cheap and not a great tactic.
If by chance this is not a staged event and random occurence, it sends a pretty terrible message about what a future Rudy Presidency might hold. Vote for Me: "I will interupt State of the Union, or better yet an important Intellegence Briefing in the White House Situation Room in order to take a phone call from my wife."
As my good friend and former ex-wife Aaron Morey put it, I am all for making time for your family, but using them as campaign event is pretty cheap. Or worse yet, not having proper time management skills to balance public life with priavte is a not a great Resume builder when applying for the Presidency of the United States.
Len Nicolosi on the other hand has always been an advocate for good time management skills.
On the other other hand, the election continues to not be occuring until November 2008.
On the other other other hand, there is a 3 fingured glove.
Ever hear of the song classical gas? Great instrumental piece. I am gonna go try and find that. And no classical gas is not that strange odor eminating from the Men's Catholic House.
Well I certainly hope someone other than Aaron Michael Francis Morey aka The Whip got some kind of enjoyment out of this. And Mr. Rudy by the way, if you are in fact elected to the White House, please consider me as the official White House blogger.
Ladies and gentlmen take my advice, the same strategy should not be successful twice in the same night of Mafia. In case it is, no hard feelings should exist between participants. Afterall it is just a game. But on the other other other other other other other hand, so was Jumanji.

She boy what? Thats right, She boy gan
Allright, it has clearly been a long....LONG time since Ive posted on this blog. And probably even longer since anyone has read it. But it is pretty scary that all this stuff is still floating around on the internet.
Well I've decided I need to start doing more productive things. Yes I know what you're thinking, "Tommy what could be possibly be more productive than watching episodes of The West Wing and Law & Order all day?" Well you're probably right, not a whole lot. I am convinced I will be able to one day pass the bar exam and possibly become President of the United States based on the information I have acquired thus far. But one of the things me and my good friend Aaron Morey Morey have learned is that we enjoy making people laugh. So hopefully this blog will be a chance to practice writing.
So i am going to try and analyze football games, politics, current events, as well as answering that never ending question that has plagued generations for ever, what happens to convicted fellons possessions when they go to jail?
So together we will embark on this adventure. I hope you either enjoy it, or hate, but i hope you have some kind of verb to go with it. With that let's begin shall we?
I can't wait for Lettermen and Craig Ferguson this week. OJ Simpson has once again graciously volunteered himself to be the star of what will certainly be some late night monolouges in the next couple weeks.
If you haven't heard OJ which is short for OJ, Simpson, has been arrested in connection to an armed robbery. Thats right armed robberry. Allegedly he broke into a hotel room with 6 other armed men to steel sports memoribillia. I believe I heard he has been arraigned on 6 counts of armed robbery. I think there is a joke here somewhere, but i am pretty sure it writes itself. This is an actual quote from Simpson, "I thought what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" I didn't make that up, i wish i had. Simpson is also claiming that he was just getting back property that was rightly his own.
On a related note New England Patriots Quarterback spoke out about the teams alleged tapping of the other teams signals with a cameraman claiming the signals were actually the Patriots and they were just taking back what was rightly their own. Thus continuing the Patriots path of being the team with the attitude of all deserving...like spoiled rotten brats.
A look at the NFC central standings brings delight to my toes.
Packers 2-0
Lions 2-0
Vikings 1-1
Bears 1-1
The Packers surprised everyone today by unveiling the fact that they actually have an offense. A kick butt one at that. Granted the Giants are not the best team in the world, but they are better than Notre Dame. Way better than Marquette's football team. But Breat Favre became the NFL's all time winningest QB today with 149 all time wins. Its going to be a season of record breaking for Favre who also today broke the record today for being the person John Madden talks about the most. Quite the excitement for Green Bay's favorite son.
I guess thats all for now, but i sure hope this gets to be entertaining for everyone. As it is for me.
Ladies and gentlemen take my advice, "I have a wide stance" is not an acceptable excuse for being stupid enough to let "Fake cops" into your apartment and rob all your fancy stuff. Long Live MUSG
