I think we need to be a little more racy to attract attention!

No not the Jimmie Johnson of Nascar fame type of racy, nor the Go Speed Racer either. I'm talking about plain raw sex! So, have you seen the latest National Geographic which depicts the mating habits of the portuguese dweezil?

(Please note the blatant use of brands to hopefully get snared by cheap search engines).

Are you a chair?

Why, in the interest of political correctness, have we replaced the word "chairman" not with "chairperson" but with simply "chair"? More and more I see people referred to as the "Chair" of this organization or the "Chair" of that function. It seems too concise to me.

However, in the interest of blogging, and under the presumption that the "Chair" is in charge, I offer up this additional suggested terminology to go with chair...

Table - the all knowing wise counsel; the chair is really not useful without the table.
Credenza - George, from Seinfeld.
Mat - the designated punching bag; the one who takes all the abuse.
Napkin - the one who has to clean up after everyone else.

Milk is a Cereal Killer

This is especially true with your flaked cereals (Corn Flakes, Frosted Flakes, Raisin Bran, etc.) Cheerios and Apple Jacks, on the other hand, stand up pretty well to milk. It's no wonder that "a bowl a day keeps the bullies away" with regard to Apple Jacks. Now Cracklin' Oat Bran practically requires milk to not do severe damage to the delicate tissues located throughout the mouth. And your Granola type cereals really don't give a damn about milk one way or the other.

And finally, why don't people pour chocolate milk on cereal?

Let's Go Mets!

I can't believe it will be 20 years since a Mets world championship next year. What has happened to our beloved team? Tom Glavine was our second best pitcher and he'll be 40 next year! Carlos Beltran was an all time great in the playoffs last year as an Astro - this year as a Met he was mediocre.

I think I know the missing ingredient - we need a player with a name like Mookie. How can anyone lose with a Mookie on their team? I know they've tried by getting a Kazuo and a Shingo but we really need a Mookie. Or maybe a Tug.
