-I recently updated my status for my Facebook newsfeed ... It was intended to mock the, I’d say, 85% of people on Facebook who use the function to brag about their lives ... ie. “headed to Cancun” or “attending a Hollywood party”, almost begging for others to respond with “oh you’re so lucky” or “wow that’s amazing, I’m so jealous” ... I said that I was “lovin’ my new Range Rover” ... for those that I actually talk to, they’d know that this is impossible at the moment for me ... BUT, I wouldn’t lie, I really did get one, it just so happens to be a diecast 1:18 scale model ... I thought it would be so much of a stretch that people would respond along the lines of: “yeah right” or “in your dreams” ... it’s really comical of what Facebook has evolved into ... in a lot of cases used to brag and beef ... in other Facebook matters, I’ll probably get started on Phase 2 of Operation: Facebook Clean Sweep ... I cut about 70 on Phase 1 and I’m looking to take out 50 this time around ...
-when it comes to the NBA nowadays, the only things I tune in for are Dwight Howard, Dwyane Wade, Kobe Bryant and the Portland Trailblazers ... sad, but I’ve said it time and again, the league’s really been “p*ssied” down since the 80’s and early 90’s ... but I will give my two cents with regards to the playoffs coming up ... in the East, I don’t really care what Cleveland’s record says, Boston is still the team to beat ... Cleveland is The LeBron James Show, nothing more, the rest of their roster is filled with a bunch of guys that are over-achieving, ie. Mo Williams and Delonte West ... they only look more effective than they are because LeBron is attracting the doubles, triples on the regular ... matched up player-for-player with Boston in a 7-game series, I don’t think Cleveland can stop all 3 of the Celtics’ “Big Three” ... in the West, it’s the Lakers’ to lose ... but I’ve said it from Day 1 of the season, look out for Portland ... they’ve got the talent, youth and athleticism to compete with anyone ... I know the playoffs are a different ball game, but I wouldn’t be stunned at all should they upset the Lakers ... prediction: Lakers over the Celtics in the Finals ...
-I’ve been boycotting ABC for the past couple of years for cancelling “Invasion” and “The George Lopez Show” ... now it looks like I’m gonna have to start boycotting FOX ... from what I’ve been reading online, there is every indication that they’re gonna pull the plug on my favourite show “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles”, which in my opinion is by miles the best show on television today ... I saw the writing on the wall when they moved the show to Friday nights, which is essentially the “graveyard shift” of television ... although nothing official has been announced, I’ve already resigned myself to the fact that the show won’t be around for a third season ...
-speaking of Terminator, they aired a preview for Terminator: Salvation, the fourth movie of the franchise ... regardless about what I think of Christian Bale, I really respect his acting ... I’m really looking forward to this movie, which comes out on May 21st ...
-what have I been up to lately? ... for those that want to know ... workouts and home renos ... I’m going on my ninth straight week of workouts, picking up the intensity each week ... as a result I’ve dropped about 11 pounds ... it’s really a drug, once you get started on a workout with a goal in that you’re dead set on reaching, it’s really hard to stop ... as for the home renos, I’m about ready to start with a new paintjob for my room and phase two of our basement construction ...
-finally, I’ve put down my deposit for Punch-Out!! ... May 18th can’t come soon enough!! ...
Peace!
