Jersey Shore

So, this is by far the best show on television. I now know both what could bring me to write another blog post as well as what will replace My Antonio as the show that brings the roommates together. So, the reason for the blog post, of course, is to try to track the amazing lines from this show all in one place. I figure I'll just have to keep this thing live while watching each episode. For the first show, I'll have to pull them down from different sites.

Pauly D

I got a f---ing tanning bed in my place, that's how serious I am about being a Guido and living up to that lifestyle.

All the girls are like fish and so we throw out a line and see if we can sink it.

Snickers

My ultimate dream is to move to Jersey, find a juiced, hot, tan guy and live my life.

I'm not going to kiss you, you have throw up breath.

I love the jersey shore. I love being a guidette but I’m not feeling it right now. I’m the princess of Poughkeepsie but here I’m nobody.

My idea man would be Italian, dark, muscles, juicehead guido. If I found that guy, I’d snatch him like that. I wanna bring home guys, it’s hard. Like it shouldn’t be hard but it is hard because it’s like a chore you know.

Me and my friend robbie wanted to watch the sunset. No the sunrise.

The Situation

My abs are so ripped up, I call it 'the situation.

You can hate on me all you want to, but what can you possibly say to somebody who looks like Rambo, pretty much, without his shirt off?

I don’t think they are going to be ready for this situation. Everyone’s gonna be like “oh shoot, that’s the situation right there.

I wait til the last minute to go shave. I wait til the last minute to put the shirt on cause it feels fresh. These are rules to live by. Shave last minute haircut the day of maybe some tanning and the gym. You gotta get the guido handbook.

JWOWW

I think it's my mission to hook up with the hottest Jersey Guido.

Ronnie

Your bank account can be low, but you always gotta look good — always have to get a new haircut, always gotta wear new sneakers, always gotta look fresh.

You know what time it is? It’s time to get my rhino juice in my SYSSSTem The Rhino juice get the night going. I mean when ever that comes up it’s always a filthy night. It really is. That’s the root of all evil.”

Jolie

I'm a bartender... I do, you know, great things.

Wear a thong bikini if you are going to wear anything at all That’s a little bit more classy you know.

Vinny

I hear the music. I start fist pumpin I start pulling girls up on stage and it’s like now…vinny came out to play.

Sammie

A guidette is somebody who knows how to club it up, takes really good care of themselves, has pretty hair, cakes on makeup, has tan skin, wears the highest heels, pretty much they know how to own it and rock it.

“Lose 5 /ten pounds and we can talk.” -The Situation to Jolie. “Yo I will cut your hair while you are sleeping ok?” -Jolie to The Situation

Option pricing strategy

Finally reading through a couple of good articles. I'm going to write my final paper about converting a 401(k) to a Roth, so I'll be updating the blog again finally, but I didn't want to lose this article.

Blog Break

So, I might have taken a bit of time off between posts, but, hey. Anyway, blog restart, life restart, year restart, it works.

I've been learning a lot about the internet subculture, and its all been very interesting when framed along with questions of piracy and emerging technologies. This article was written about aXXo, the number one pirate on the internet, who uploads DVD quality movies and who is famous, but only known by his handle. Another group, known only as The Scene, is an older, more recognized group of pirates, who apparently don't appreciate what aXXo has done.

If this isn't the nerdiest article ever, I don't want to know what is.

St. Pats - time to get SHADDYYYYYY

Thats right bitches, its St. Patricks Day weekend. Rog sent me a card, so its now official. Never mind that I had to request vacation for the weekend, or that some of the gays that I call compadre's are dropping out, but I'm getting off work early and I'm getting all sorts of Irish. I was brainstorming about good St. Pat's day t-shirt ideas (mostly for the ladies), and I figured I'd write some of the best ones down here, so I could read them later and laugh about them.

- Kiss me or I'll roofie your drink
- Kiss me or I'll tell everyone you're gay
- Kiss me I'm braugh-less
- Kiss me I'm on the pill
- Kiss me, I'm asymptomatic
- I'm HIV-positive you want to kiss me
- Kiss me (RU) 486 times.
- Plan B is my Plan A. Kiss me.

And my favorite:

- I don't have morals, but I do have Plan B. Kiss me.

If I find a woman wearing any of those sayings tomorrow, she better watch out, cause Glenn is rolling strapped. Plan for the weekend:

4pm: Off work, heading home
4:10: Pants off, beer open
6pm: Shamrock and Roll and Lucious B. Jacksons. The continuation of the debatchury of the past years Shamrock and Roll from Boston, but with a gayer, more married feel in the heart of Tysons corner.
8pm: Catch the train. I'm holding a one way ticket to Blackout City, USA.
~10pm - 4am: Pass out. Hopefully indoors. Maybe with a bed. We'll see.

Saturday:
9am: First beer of the day. Delicious!
10am: Kegs and eggs with Phil and Denny. Apparently there will be ladies, but with those two throwing the party, I don't expect much.
12pm - undetermined: Shamrockfest, VIP style.

I already have a serious semi just reading about the itinerary. Check back Sunday. I'll take the plan and put what actually happened, hopefully with photographic evidence. Watch out ladies, here I come.

Top Chef and an injured roommate

Sitting on my couch, Scott's parent are here and hes passed out in the lazy boy next to me with a surgically repaired ACL. This injury might be the best thing that has happened to me in a while. His parents brought more food than this apartment has ever seen, including sacks of potatoes, a ton of canned goods, and Costco sized meat. Mrs. Spicoli made an amazing pork dish tonight, with a side of potatoes and corn. For dessert, banana pudding, with marshmallows. I'm happy that Dave's surgery went well, but I'm even happier about all this food! Too bad we are in a weigh in week for the weight loss competition, but I just can't pass this opportunity up.

Tonight starts a new season of Top Chef too. I can't believe I'm going to watch another 12 weeks of Bravo, after the finale of Project Runway last week. I'm not sure what qualifies me for a GLBT scholarship for school, but I have to think this is one of the qualifications.

12 days until I find out from UVA. I think I'm going crazy...

Not sure what this is, but I saw make money and went with it. More to blog later, but I have a possibility to pick up Paul Simon's Rythum of the Saints for $2 bucks with free shipping. Sweet!
