Well, the time has come for us as a team to seek greener pastures. We've done some fine work here at blogspot, and established the fact that we CAN blog in an entertaining, informative, and engaging fashion.
Thanks to all of you, our confidence is at an all time high.
So we're not fading softly into that good night. Rather we are moving to a better forum.

Pedro Martinez and Juan Marichal: Cockfight
PEDRO: So Marcelino's going to give me back my DVD's ?JUAN: Well, he will if Little Pedro Martinez wins the cockfight.
PEDRO: Great!
JUAN: Well, Marcelino, he has cockfights in the back of his store.
PEDRO: Ah ha...
JUAN: So, he says if Little Pedro Martinez wins, you'll get your DVD's back.
PEDRO: Juan, cockfighting is illegal.
JUAN: Only in The United States.
PEDRO: It's inhumane!
JUAN: No, Pedro, it's not what you think it is.
PEDRO: It's two roosters peckin' at each other!
JUAN: What?
PEDRO: Yeah!
JUAN: Well, I thought they wore gloves and helmets, you know, like "American Gladiators."
PEDRO: No Juan, Little Pedro could get hurt.
JUAN: Well, I left him with Marcelino!

(I went to Haiti and all I got was 4 stitches and a shitload of mosquito bites.)
One pound of marijuana in Haiti: $30 USD.
One gram of cocaine in Haiti (10x more potent than anything that touches American soil): $5 USD.
Ransom collected the last time my boy was kidnapped in Haiti: $40 USD (and a boombox).
Living in a country where the most pressing national issue is determining the exact chemical cocktail that caused the death of one idiot actor: Priceless.

It is indeed Super Tuesday....so keep this in mind...
Vote or Die, bitches!.....take that....take that Super Tuesday
My fellow Americans! Get out there today and do your #1 job as citizens of the greatest country in the world!
Today is the day! Don't act like a hippy, you can make a difference (unless you live in new york, if you do you're vote doesn't matter because this state will go to the democratic nominee).
Let's start with a brief run down of each of the candidates.
Hillary Clinton
This lil' lady is the wife of our nation's first black president, Bill Clinton. She has been working within the system ever since, and is now poised to grasp the leadership reigns on her own.
One of Hil's biggest issues is her desire to get our country to accept universal health care, a policy that would greatly enhance the quality of life for everyone (except the most wealthiest) in the good ole US of A!
But let us not forget that Hillary voted for the war in Iraq!
Barack Obama
He's a cool fellow who is all about eliciting positive change in our country. To his credit, Obeezy voted against the war in Iraq, and has since focused on increasing our energy independence (HUGE) and also on establishing universal health care.
Obama is a smoker, I hope he smokes Newports, cuz they are easily the coolest ciggs. Many have also questioned his experience, as he is young and a relatively newbie in the political field. But I think the experience thing is an overblown load of crap.
He also bears a decent resemblance to my friend Kenny! And that is tre' cool.
John McCain
This dude is a real life fucking Chuck Norris. During the Vietnam War his plane was shot down during his 23rd bombing run. He survived the crash and was captured by the enemy where he endured five and a half years of torture in a prison camp. During his internment, he had a watch that he planned on passing on to his son. To keep it from being confiscated, he hid it...in his ass...wait that might've been Pulp Fiction.
McCain is commonly viewed as one of the more moderate Republican. He is conservative on many traditional Republican issues (health care, abortion) but has been known to be liberal on many others (education, gun control).
Do be aware that McCain is definitely a Hawk (you would be too if the Vietnamese poked you with sticks for 5 years!) and is also a ripe 71 yrs of age (he would be DEAD by the end of an 8yr term). Those are things to keep in mind when voting.
Mitt Romney
Mitt Romney was once the Governor of Massachusetts, a piece of shit state that until recently was a cursed as the princess on Shrek. He built a highway there that from all accounts was a disaster and collapsed like 12 hours after being completed.
Also, Romney is a Mormon, and as we know, Mormon's eat babies and marry thousands of women at a time.
Enough silliness, Mitt Romney has been known to waffle on the issue of abortion. That's not the worst thing in the world though, as he has demonstrated a strong stance on tougher gun control laws and also is determined to increase legal immigration, while identifying and databasing the nation's illegal immigrants.
Plus his handsome face seems to have been chiseled out of solid granite.
In the end, all that is really important is that you execute your right to play a part in the process of selecting our nation's leaders. Leave the cynicism at home, get out there, educate yourself, and align yourself with the person whom you feel best suits your needs and ideals.
So if you can tear yourself away from the Giants' victory parade (pictured above) for a moment. Get out there and vote! And don't let anything (pictured below) stand in your way!

Random Celebrity Endorsement
"I love A.M.C.O.T! During filming for Big Trouble in Little China I turned to Kurt Russell and I said 'Kurt, you know what we need? A place to go where we can read about news, politics, entertainment, sports, and opinions with a humorous flair. A modest little place filled with thoughts'....22 years later that place finally exists!" - Al Leong (Actor, Stuntman, & Mustache Aficionado)

2007 New York Giants: World Champions!!!!!!
Congratulations to the 2007 New York Giants. Six years ago this team was declared all but dead. Brandon Jacobs was banged up, Plaxico Burress looked like he would need an entire offseason to recover his wheels, and Eli Manning looked lost as usual.
Somewhere, Tiki Barber chuckled.
Fast forward to Feb 3rd 2008 and the New York Giants have been crowned the champs of the NFL. Tom Brady, Bill Belichek, Randy Moss, and the rest of the 2007 New England Patriots have
been denied their shot at history (cue champagne toast).So to all of those New York Giants fans out there, congratulations!
12 days till pitchers and catchers!
