New Years Resolutions:

1) Read the equivalent of 1 book per week for the entire year. That's 52 books. Academic journals will also count, I don't care about the length. I've had this goal for the last 2 years but never quite make it. Also I should mention that I stole this idea from Dustin, but it's a heck of an idea. Also it's almost the 3rd week or so of January so I'm behind by 3 books. When December comes around and I'm behind by 30 books, I'll probably start counting comic books.

Progress = -3.

2) Fight a Hippo

Progress = not even close

3) Win an ultra marathon.

Progress = it's a matter of periodization and timing, I'll probably do Capon Valley 50K again, but the North Face 50M is the one I want the most. I've never gone that far, not even by breaking up the runs in a day, but I did get 80K in a day once, which is only a quarter mile short. Those were the good old days when I wasn't lazy.

4) Beat the cold

Progress = DONE, I've been wearing less clothes in races lately than anyone else, even the ones who are usually hardcore...I used to wimp out and wear too much, not anymore, I'm back to high school stupidity

5) Grad school

Progress = they just let me in, my first class is on Thursday, I bought a voice recorder so I don't have to stay awake

6) Functional Foods only, nothing processed, unless it's also functional

Progress = going well, my cholesterol is down to 113, but my glucose is kind of high, as are uric acid crystals and plaque that isn't breaking down, I should have it under control within 28 days...my resting pulse seems to average closer to 50 now instead of 40, but I think it'll get back down, once I get more rested up...you gotta stay on top of these things

7) Destroy health myths
a)You can't target fat
- this is ridiculous, it's only a matter of hormone control
- control hormones and you control everything
b)Milk is good for your bones
- milk is good for your bones if you live in africa
- an american on an american diet will get osteoporosis
c)all calories are the same
- do you want the ones that add fat to your hips or the ones that don't?
- because that sure isn't the same
d)the food guide pyramid was designed with your health in mind
- if this was true we wouldn't see grains on the bottom, we would see vegetables
e)fat is genetic
- or is it that fat parents feed their kids the same thing that made them fat?
f)some kids get ear problems, you can't help it
-maybe you should stop smoking around your kids
g)some kids get asthma, you can't help it
-maybe you should have slightly less carpet in your house, and open the windows
h)runners need to take iron supplements
-if they are low on iron, they need to change their diet, not simply take a pill
-if their diet is low on iron it will be low on others as well
-(folate, b vitamins, etc)
i)lifting weights will make a girl big like a man
-only if she's taking testosterone
j)girls need to take birth control to control hormonal monthly...stuff
-this is more a matter of too much protein intake
-which causes earlier puberty
-which potentially leads to breast cancer
k)exercises that are a waste of (my) time
-most crunches
-sled/leg press
-leg extension/hamstring curl
-any chest machine
-any other machine for that matter
l) you will pee out an extra vitamins over the 100% of the rda
-only the water soluble ones, which aren't many
-most people need more than 100% of the rda

Progress = good start

8) Maybe update this blog more?

Progress = needs more consistency...I would like to get back into writing articles for something, either newspaper or magazine, I was always a lot better at writing than talking, as long as, I had, someone to edit out all the extra, commas

9) Become Supreme Master of the Universe

Progress = I think I'm getting closer to this one actually, just a little bit

10) Waste less time on the internet

Progress = not going well

chrisometry: post on livejournal
Musclor2K: haha, dang
Musclor2K: ok i'll try

Things Chuck has done recently:
1) Yesterday I went to a concert at Merriweather. We got there 30mins after doors opened and Megadeth was already starting to play so we missed Machine Head (not that I really care, but Jack did). But ok lets think about this, if Machine Head plays for 30mins, and then it takes about 20-30mins to set up for Megadeth...how the heck did we miss all that if we were only 30mins late?
Oh well Megadeth was awesome for a 45min set, but don't have that much energy live (when compared to Metallica or GnR) but there songs are pretty freaking awesome.
Then Black Sabbath w/ Dio (Heaven & Hell) played for 2hrs, they were pretty good but I only really like 3 of their songs and the rest are "just ok to me" (Randy Jackson, 2007).
Also it was chilly and starting to rain most of the time. Also standing for 3+ hrs isn't very comfortable at all.

2) I saw Shrek today. It wasn't nearly as good as the first 2 but still fun. I'd say it was worth the matinee price but wouln't of been worth the evening price. Good thing I got there at 5:40 and not 5:46.


Musclor2K: what else should i write about?
chrisometry: regionals xc
chrisometry: jk track

Regionals track is gonna be awesome because it's on Friday the day before my birthday, which means it is on the eve of the greatest day ever known to mankind. Also for a birthday present it would be cool if everyone saved me their coke product caps. Only 2234983466723468 more and I will have a new Nintendo system. But Regionals isn't all that good: the new Pirates of the Carribean movie opens that day and everyone is gonna miss it, and have to wait to see it the NEXT DAY. Wow what horror will that be. Man that will suck. Man. Did I mention Sat will be my birthday?

Oh it seems I forgot to actually say anything about Regionals. Regionals is the last big step before States, which is the biggest meet of them all (if you don't count nationals or any other bigger meets). We face off against all the other teams in our region, and our region is the greatest region in the whole entire universe. Mostly because it has us in it.

chrisometry: and how much i hate ticks

MAN ticks suck. I got one the other day. You mostly have to watch out for them if you go through tall grass. Usually it takes them a good bit of time to bite you, so if you search yourself afterwards can usually get them in time. This leads me to the...

*CHUCK PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNEMENT*
It has come to my attention that most body parts are hard to see, so ticks can hide anywhere! If you need help with the body search give me a call! I'll gladly shave your back and get those ticks out of wherever they could possily hide! Oh hecks heah! Whatever I have to do to help out!
*OFFER ONLY OPEN TO FEMALES BETWEEN THE AGES OF 21 AND 27. ALSO YOU MUST BE HOT. SAY AN 8 ON A SCALE OF 1-10. NO, SCRATCH THAT, I HAVE STANDARDS. MAKE THAT A 10.8.


chrisometry: and! what u would do if u had 100 trillion dollars

I can't stay up all night typing on this thing! Oh wait yeah I can...

Here is a guide to how I would spend 100 trillion dollars:
1 trillion goes to a savings account, which will get so much interest that I won't have to buy toilet paper ever again, as I can just use cash.
10 trillion for my new beach front property. Also make note that I won't be moving to the beach, but bringing the beach to my current house, which is currently nowhere near an ocean or body of water of any type.
100 dollars goes to everybody that I consider a friend.
Actually I'm gonna need that money for ice cream.
50 trillion to hire Donald Trump, and then fire him.
1 trillion for an endless supply of skittles, which will be on tap.
25 trillion dollars for that sweet cupboard in the Indian in the Cupboard. I'm gonna bring all my action figures to life. And I have a lot of action figures. Who will be laughing then! Not the guy who lives in his parents basement and plays with action figures all day, taht's for sure! Most of those little guys have guns you know.
Whatever money is left will be used to help the home...HOLY MOLEY...THE NEW THINGS YOU NEVER NEW EXISTED CATALOG JUST CAME IN THE MAIL...I CAN USE THE LEFT OVER MONEY TO BUY ALL SORTS OF CRAZY CRAP...HECKS YEAH!

Ok I have to go to bed (watch snl), g'nite

-Sir Chuckalot

PS, I'm not joking around about the ticks. Also all applicants must send a picture or you'll be rejected.

DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE F--- YOU ARE?

I sure as heck didn't when I got to Baltimore and I knew where the 1st Mariner Arena was but all the roads I tried to take were "one way" only leading in the opposite direction. So I kept spiraling out away from it. It was pretty ridiculous. Then we finally got back to it and parking was 20 bucks. I knew I could probably find cheaper parking but I'd probably just get on the wrong roads again and end up driving forever so I went ahead and paid it.

It was about 6:00 so we went to find Legal Seafood where Jack wanted to eat. We didn't know exactly where it was so I went in a hotel and asked. It was the fanciest hotel I've ever seen by far and I though I had seen fancy hotels before. Anyway, we got to Legal Seafood and it was one of the fanciest restaurants I've been to, it just had a stupid name. I ordered the Louisiana Catfish Matrimony but I ended up being disappointed because after the first bite I could tell it was from Mid-Western Mississippi. Also it wasn't even married.

We then got back to the 1st Mariner at about 8 to see Suicide Girls, Sebastian Bach, and...Guns N' Roses! Suicide Girls were replacing Papa Roach for the second half of the tour, starting with this show. I was pretty pumped about that because I didn't care about Papa Roach at all. Also there would be naked girls, because as you may or may not know, Suicide Girls isn't a band but a soft core porn/burlesque show, which is now opening for a rock concert. That has to be a first!

We didn't have to wait long as Suicide Girls came on at about 8:20. Basically they just did a bunch of dance skits using a different prop for each one and dancing to a different song, and then at the end of the song they'd have their clothes off, with a star sticker over their nipples because apparently we can handle seeing everything except that quarter inch of skin. Somehow though I actually got bored with Suicide Girls after the first couple skits and didn't really care much anymore. It was just the same thing over and over. The girls looked to be in incredible shape though, better than most professional athletes. I guess they stay in pretty good shape doing all the moves they do. They only performed for about half an hour though and then we went back to sit and wait for Bach.

Bach came on at about 9:15 so it wasn't even a long wait. I thought it was going to be really loud with a lot of screaming (which is what everyone who's been to a show has said), but a while back I saw Dillinger Escape Plan and now nothing seems loud in comparison. I didn't know any Sebastian Bach or Skid Row songs so I wasn't that excited about seeing him but all his songs turned out to be really good. He did scream a lot but his performance was really good and his songs were great. "Eighteen" was my favorite. He played for a little over and hour and ended at about 10:30, so I got ready for the long wait for GnR. Apparently at all the other shows there was a really long time between bands as GnR would show up late each show. We must of lucked out though because they came on not much later at about 11:15.

Axl sounded really good and I heard online that he sounded better at this show than any show so far. All of their songs are amazing. I was pretty bummed they didn't play Rocket Queen or Madagascar though, but they played pretty much everything else that they could of played. It seemed all of their songs are classics.

Now on to the cool part.

GnR came back out for their encore, Chinese Democracy and Paradise City. During Paradise there is tons of pyro going off and confetti shooting out everywhere. So by the end of the song I was pretty much just picking confetti off of myself, and RIGHT when it ended everyone in front of me spun around and slammed into me, but I just kinda thought they were in a hurry to leave since it was 1am but they they all turned around and I was like what the heck. So I turned around behind me to see what was going on, and it turns out that Axl had thrown his microphone into the crowd at the end of Paradise and it had flown right by me. But you know who was standing behind me? That's right, my friend Jack. He held the mic and then him and some people screamed into it but it was turned off at this point and then he handed it to me. I quickly realized everyone around us was frantically searching the floor for it and most of them were drunk so there was no telling what they would do. I hid it under my arm and started moving for the door. A girl asked me if we had it and I showed it to her but when a bunch of big guys asked me I was like..."uh...he's got it back there" and nodded behind me.

So now I'm sitting here typing this with Axl Rose's microphone on my desk. How sweet is that?

-Chuck

Oh yeah, so I got beat. But I ended up 80th place overall, in the entire world.

At around 200,000 people, that puts me in like the top 0.5% or something. That's good right?

But if it's not first place it's not good enough.

There's always next season.

The guy who runs the company that makes the wrestling card game said that whoever joined his league and beat him would get a prize. My goal is to win, but if I can't win I could at least beat this guy. We have both pushed into the top 100 overall in the last week.

He's got me by 2 points going into the last show, Summerslam. IT'S ON NOW.

I got screwed over though cause Mic Foley is going against Ric Flair in an "I quit" match, so I thought they would both use tons of foreign objects and get lots of points, but apparently they announced that foreign objects won't count in that match. The ruling doesn't make any sense at all but I guess it's my fault for not reading the updates.

His team:
Batista
Brian Kendrick
Candice
Chavo Guerrero
Edge
King Booker
Lita
Paul London
Sabu
Torrie Wilson
Victoria

VS.

My team:
Batista
Candice
Chloe
Hulk Hogan
Lita
Little Bastard
Mick Foley
Randy Orton
Ric Flair
Sharmell
Torrie Wilson
Victoria

------------------------------------------------
Then lets take out everyone we both have, which leaves us with:

His team:
Brian Kendrick
Chavo Guerrero
Edge
King Booker
Paul London
Sabu

VS.

My team:
Chloe
Hulk Hogan
Little Bastard
Mick Foley
Randy Orton
Ric Flair
Sharmell

------------------------------------------------
Lets take out everyone who I don't believe will be on Summerslam (hopefully cause it hurts him a lot more than me) and then predict how many points each will get

His team:
Chavo Guerrero (assuming he loses, 13pts)
Edge (loses in the main event, 17pts, wins 36+pts)
King Booker (loses, 13pts)
Sabu (wins ECW title, 45+pts)

VS.

My team:
Hulk Hogan (wins 25pts)
Little Bastard (5pts)
Mick Foley (loses 16pts)
Randy Orton (loses 13pts)
Ric Flair (wins 33pts)
Sharmell (5pts)

------------------------------------------------
Take out everyone that is about equal:

His team:
Edge (loses in the main event, 17pts, wins 36+pts)
Sabu (wins ECW title, 45+pts)

VS.

My team:
Hulk Hogan (wins 25pts)
Little Bastard (5pts)
Ric Flair (wins 33pts)
Sharmell (5pts)

So this is the scenario I'm hoping for:
Booker T loses his title to Batista, even with lots of interference from Little Bastard and Sharmell.
John Cena beats Edge for the title.
Hulk Hogan vs. Randy Orton is the main event instead of the title match.
Sabu doesn't manage to beat Big Show for the ECW title.

I wouldn't be worried if they hadn't of announced that in the Mic Foley/Ric Flair match foreign object wouldn't count. Ridiculous.

Musclor2K: yes ma'am
Bethy161: :-)

...

Musclor2K: ok what the heck do i write about on lj
Musclor2K: my main problem is coming up with a topic
Bethy161: i told you
Bethy161: inventor
Musclor2K: that's gonna be boring
Bethy161: ok how about spring
Bethy161: or how cool i am
Bethy161: or your girl at sheetz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bethy161: tell everyone how you stalk her
Musclor2K: crap what if she reads this


1) inventor

American Inventor is the greatest show of all time, not including all of the better shows, such as Futurama, Simpsons, anything that's ever been on CBS, Duck Tales, M.A.S.H., Chappelle Show, anything in Spanish, House M.D., Survivor, 3rd Rock From the Sun, and any news show that is on before 2pm and after 4pm, also any news show between 2 and 4 pm. Not counting those shows, or any other show that is on TV, it is DEFINITELY THE BEST SHOW EVER. You should watch it. You would be amazed at the stupidity of people as they think their invention is the next big thing. I KNOW I can invent something better. Watch this:

-ice cream that doesn't melt in the sun
-ice cream with LSD so you get swirls of colors instead of a headache
-kiwi flavored ice cream
-ice cream that is healthy as frozen yogurt but tastes like ice cream
-a monkey that brings you ice cream
-ice cream that turns into more ice cream
-man i gotta get some ice cream

OK, I'm back with more ice cream! Now I'm ready for topic 2:

2) spring

Spring is the time of the year when the weather warms up, flowers bloom, the days last longer, and girls wear shorter skirts. It's also the time of the year that fleas and bugs run rampant all over everything, food spoils in a matter of minutes, and everyone starts sneezing uncontrollably.

FUCK I GOT AN ICE CREAM HEADACHE

OH CRAP OH CRAP OH CRAP OH CRAP OH CRAP

ok it's over, back to spring...

Spring is a time for spring cleaning. I should clean my room and my car. Mainly my room because I can't get the door open all the way and can barely get into it. Last week I got lost in there and it took me three days to find my way out. Also, Spring includes May which is the greatest month of the year because we celebrate my birthday. I like presents.

3) Beth if freaking awesome

Did you know that the sun doesn't come up until Beth wakes up? Or that flowers don't bloom until Beth sees them? Or how about if you are South of the equator, the water flows towards Beth, and if you are North of the equator, the water flows to wherever Beth wants it to?

Other interesting and not very well known Beth facts:

-Beth built Rome in a day.
-Beth can communicate with birds, dolphins, and most butterflies.
-Beth won't take no for an answer.
-When Beth runs, she doesn't have to run up hills because it's easier for her to run through hills.
-While most little girls collect Barbie dolls, Barbie collects Beth dolls.
-Wonder Woman is a comic character based on the adventures of Beth.
-When Beth is nearby, coal will turn into diamonds immediately.

4) Sheetz Girl

NO COMMENT at this time


Well that's it for another embarrassing installment of Chuckingit - Chucks newsletter for the extremely bored. Please leave comments.

WWE Fantasy Update

It was an entire year ago at around WWE Fantasy Season 3 when I used to post updates each week, and I would brag about how I placed 54th or so at WrestleMania week.

Well then they made it free to play which means thousands more entered the game, meaning my chances of placing high at WrestleMania again were pretty bad. But here it is at WrestleMania week a whole year later, WWE Fantasy Season 7, and I placed...

32nd, which put me at about 142 overall (one week I forgot to pick a roster, so that's actually pretty good), out of probably 100,000 or who knows how many players.

Next season will last 14 weeks instead of 10 but doesn't start until end of May, so I guess I have nothing to do for awhile.

Anybody have anything I can do? American Idol Fantasy just isn't the same.

So this happened a few weeks ago, and I'm still thinking about it...

So get this...I'm in the library, cause I was driving by and thought maybe I could get some books, they are free after all. I had to get a new library card too cause I had no idea whatever happened to my old one. Also I owed them like 3 bucks from a few years ago, which, thanks to computers, they hadn't forgetten.

So I get some random books, mainly because I can't believe how free they are (actually now that I think about it, they may be overdue by now since this was awhile ago)...but anyway, I go up to check them out, and instead of them pulling a card with a list of names out of the back of the book, they scan them all and give me a receipt.

A RECEIPT

The only reason the library was fun was because I could look at the list of names and see who had the book before me. And in times when there was no names on the list, I'd wonder why nobody wanted the book, and if something was wrong with me for wanting it. But alas, those times are gone, and the computers are taking over...

So I get on aim for the first time in a long while and...

soccerman4520: update your live journal
soccerman4520: but don't ask me for topics

crap! I have to think of my own topic! this never turns out for the best


Obviously I should talk about something that is popular right now, but since I haven't watched TV or talked to anyone in over 2 months, I have no idea what is popular. I'll ask Lycos.

OK, Lycos gave me the top 50 searches for last week or something

I will talk about all of them and cover all of my bases

1) St. Patricks Day
This is a day where everyone wheres green, and if you don't you get your ass kicked. You see back in the beginning of time, the 1950's, everthing was in black and white. But then one day color was invented. Green was the color of the leaves and the grass and everyone saw it as the most important color as it brought forth life. It was soon to be worshiped and everyone was to wear green! Those who didn't were pinched by the giant lobster man who lives in the north caves.
This ritual lingered until about the early 80's, when everyone realized it was stupid. Giant lobsters don't live in caves, they live on the beach. Also the giant lobster says we should drink more beer. That's why every March we celebrate St. Patricks day, where we get lots of beer, dye it green, where green things, and act stupid, all in an effort to not get pinched. What a day it is.
And that is the history of St. Patricks day. Oh yeah, it's called St. Patrick because that's the lobsters name. He was a saint. And a lobster.

2. Poker
Whoever the heck decided I should be able to watch people play poker on TV is an idiot.

3. Pam Anderson
Stacked is still on TV? Are you kidding me? I saw the first episode a long time ago and it was horrible, and I never saw it since, assuming it was cancelled. Of course I don't blame people for watching it, it's got Pamela Anderson.

4. Britney Spears
Why is she still popular? Her songs suck...but at least she's teaching her kid to drive at an early age. Good parenting is a rarity in these days.

5. WWE
YES, WWE is the greatest thing ever invented, except for other wrestling promotions, but Vince shut them down, so it's only WWE now. I'm doing that WWE Fantasy thing still, I don't have time to work on it, forgetting to pick teams one week, and such, but I'm still doing pretty good. I did really good last week actually. I can't win overall but maybe I can win a week. We shall see.
WrestleMania is coming up next month, that's a big deal for wrestling fans, I hope they can pull off a good one but wrestling isn't that good anymore. I thought maybe it was just me, getting older, and burnt out, and not into it that much. Then I got the Bret Hart dvd, and I saw possibly the best matches I have ever seen, one right after the other. Kurt Angle wants to be the best ever, he's got a long way to go to catch up to Bret. The writers aren't good anymore, HHH on the creative team is a conflict of interest. Vince needs to get it together, becuase the Fantasy League is the only thing keeping me interested.

6. Stacy Keibler
YES, more wrestling! I believe Stacy placed 3rd on some dancing show, proving that she can dance better than like 10 other celebrities that she beat. She doesn't need WWE anymore however, and can do pretty much whatever she wants, like acting, or stupid reality shows.

7. Pokemon
Everyone likes puzzles, but I like hunting better.

8. Lindsay Lohan
The new pokemon.

9. Neopets
It's easier than getting up to feed your real dog. Also they don't drool on you.

10. Dr. Suess
You'd be celebrating your 102nd birthday too if you ate green eggs and ham everyday for breakfast.

11. Mardi Gras
History of Mardi Gras:
Lobster Man decides St. Patricks day is only 24 hours of drinking, and doesn't fit hit the required minimum of a billion hours. New drinking days are added, starting with Mardi Gras.

12. Paris Hilton
what a horrible topic

13. KazaA
Kazaa is ok, but kazaa light rules. I'd check it out if I were you.

14. Dragonball
Does anyone else realize that every time anyone makes any move, its the most powerful move of all time, and then it takes about 10 minutes to complete...and then UH OH, the opponent survived...and now he's going for an even more powerful move! This has been going on for like 10 years or something

15. Limewire
You can't make wires out of limes. Stupid people

16. Jennifer Lopez
I really don't know anything about all these girls except that they are on the list because they are either A) hot B) stupid or C) both

17. Taxes
Taxes where invented in 1492 when Columbus sailed the ocean blue. He was almost to the Americas when...LOBSTER MAN POPPED OUT OF NOWHERE! "What are you doing" declares Lobster Man in a wondering sort of way. "Why looking for the United States of America, dumbbass", replys Columbus. "I have no ass, I'm a lobster, and for that I tax you" and Lobster Man proceeded to charge Columbus and his fellow sailers 10 of their freshly caught samon in order to use the new country.
And that is how taxes were invented. Columbus felt ripped off and killed a lot of Indians in a mad rage.

18. The IRS
ANOTHER WWE reference. I.R.S. was the initials of a wrestler named Irwin R. Shyster. He would come to the ring and beat up opponents who didn't pay their taxes on time. He later teamed up with the Million Dollar Man and together formed Money Inc., a team that would win the tag team titles and dominate the tag team scence by frequently getting counted out of their matches so they wouldn't have to defend their belts.

19. Harry Potter
I haven't yet read any Harry Potter books, or seen any of the movies but I want to. Please send them to me. Also Harry Potter was invented by Lobster Man.

20. March Madness
The result of network TV exects having too much to drink after Mardi Gras and St. Patricks Day

21. Diets
A quarter of the way through the year, and people still can't figure out how to fulfil their New Years resolutions.

22. Anna Kournikova
NOW, i like tennis.

23. FAFSA
I never got any grants...

24. Christina Aquilera
ugh...

25. Anna Nicole Smith
now we know who typed "diet" into the seach engine so much

26. Winter Olympics
summer olympics have like 30 sports, winter has 7...what's up with that?

27. Eminem
good job making crappy songs, i guess

28. Easter
Easter was invented in 33, when Columbus climbed a tree

29. Madonna
Madonna

30. American Idol
I picked Paris and Taylor to win girls and guys, on like the first show. And now they are both in the top 12. My fantasy league skills are paying off.

31. Angelina Jolie
can raid my tomb any day...sorry

32. Jessica Alba
no

33. Mariah Carey
more octaves than most

34. Naruto
who?

35. NBA
don't watch it, nothing is more fun to play and less boring to watch than basketball

36. Hilary Duff
no

37. Nelly
crap

38. Beyonce
ok, but usually crap

39. Tupac
really good

40. NFL
football doesn't suck to watch like basketball, but i'd probably rather play basketball

41. NASCAR
notice how all the real sports are down here, and WWE was way at the top

42. Baseball
baseball if fun if it's a video game, that's about it

43. Zac Efron
who?

44. Clay Aiken
what?

45. Chris Brown
what it is jive turkey

46. Jessica Simpson
no

47. Inuyasha
another anime i can't pronounce

48. Carmen Electra
now she's hot, the hottest one on this list

49. 50 Cent
won't get you much

50. Final Fantasy
i wish i had these games


OK, the second half of that was pointless and sucked, but I'm tired.


I'll move on to 2006 and cool things that are happening this year

1) Metallica touring
2) Megadeth touring
3) Guns N Roses touring for the first time in years
4) Saturday Nights Main Event returns after about 15 years
5) Futurama returns
6) SNL hasn't sucked for the first time in years
7) Slimepit.org is ready

Today I went to Shoff Promotions comic book & sports card show in Tysons corner. I've been to it before and it sucks. There is another company that runs one near there and it's a heck of a lot better. I hadn't been to one for awhile so wanted to go, and wasn't doing anything this weekend. I ended up finding some good deals after lots of searching. I mostly go to look for recent stuff that I want to buy, but it costs 3 bucks in the store. Cons I can get them for 25-50 cents, bagged and boarded. I got most of critically acclaimed novelist Greg Ruckas run on Wonder Woman from the past 2 years and some random other stuff that was cheap enough for me to buy. Normally when I go to the comic store, which is rare now, I only buy a couple issues from the tons of stuff I want. Then I go to to a con and try to find all the stuff I want for really cheap. It seems to work out pretty well, and I hardly have to spend any money. I just have to be a few months behind everyone else, which causes a problem with spoilers, but I can ignore them.

I feel like I should delete this post, cause it sucks, but I promised one tonight and it's late so I'm outta here

THE LIVING JOURNAL

What has the Chuckster been doing lately you ask? Wondering where he’s been you say? Like to here his amazing stories of what’s been up? Oh, no sorry, nobody is wondering about that at all apparently. BUT, while nothing I have done has been newsworthy, except the one day last week when I save the world from...never mind...anyhow, I do have one piece of news that may be very important. VERY IMPORTANT. I will tell you at the end of my log. (diary) [no not diary who typed that!] (I did) [stupid parenthesis] (parenthesis rule) [no way brackets forever man]

Uhh…anyway, on with the letters column:

Letters column:

Dear Chuckingit,
I think my cat has fallen in love with my boyfriend!!! She's been acting very... well... catty towards me and I just know something's going on! I want to make 2006 the best year ever, how can I end their unnatural love affair?? Please give advice ASAP!!
Sincerely,
Suspicious Cat Stalker

I find the best way to get rid of a nasty feline felon is also the most delicious way: Horseradish sauce. Go down to your local Arby’s and load up on some immediately. Then, find your boyfriend. Spread some horseradish sauce in all the important cat licking areas: toes, fingers, and nose. If I know one thing it’s that cats HATE horseradish sauce. Oh man, picture this...you’re eating dinner at the table, and your cat knows it! So the cat keeps trying to pressure you into mistakenly dropping some food on the floor. So finally you get sick of it and you finally give in. But this time, you dip the piece of chicken in horseradish sauce. Boy is that cat in for a rude awakening! It’ll immediately drop the food and turn its nose up at you. The same method works on boyfriends.

Charles the Brave,

I think your readership needs to know your stance on the following...

1. do you support post-birth abortion, say if the subject is between 12 and 40?
2. 2 non-math answers for why I can't take the square root of a negative number
3. a religious reason to out-run cheetahs
4 (bonus). what should we do with Saddam?

Thanks,

Philip

1) Abortion in any form is an easy and popular method to ease the growing problem of overpopulation. Although I do think it is morally wrong to abort an innocent unborn baby, a teenager, however, is far from innocent, and possibly the most disgusting thing I have ever come across. Something needs to be done to prevent their tired antics and real world TV shows, and until we can come up with a better option, I think post-birth abortion is the way to go. Once they are over 18 and of legal age however, this becomes a grey area. Best thing to do in that situation is to arrange an “accident.” The line “Oh, I didn’t know it was loaded” still holds up in court.

2) First, we must define what a negative number is. A negative number is defined as “a number less than zero.” Everybody who has a credit card knows what this means. So the first reason why you can’t take the square root of a negative number is that credit card companies would charge far too much interest on such a thing. The second reason is far more complicated. You know when you have a milkshake, and you are getting close to the bottom? And it gets hard to sip it though the straw? And you try, and you just get air and you get all pissed off? YOU CAN NEVER REACH ZERO WITH SUCH A METHOD AS THIS. And you can not even try to take the square root of a number less than zero, if you can’t even get down to zero to begin with. And how would you have negative milkshake anyway? That’s crazy! NEXT QUESTION.

3) A religious reason to outrun cheetahs? Well the obvious reason to outrun a cheetah would be that the cheetah wants to eat you, but I doubt it is a sin to get eaten against your will, so that will not count as a religious reason which would be that the cheetah is the DEVIL and he wants to destroy you! I KNEW CHEETAHS COULDN’T BE TRUSTED. I now declare cheetah aborting season open!

4) Saddam? Well if you rearrange the letters in ‘saddam’ you get ‘dads ma’ which is another term for your dads mother, or your grandmother. So send him to your grandmothers’ house. She’ll take him out behind the barn and whoop his ass. Then she’ll bake him cookies.



And as promised, the best news so far of the new year:


The Return of…FUTURAMA.


And remember, you heard it here first. Unless you already know. Then shut up.

-Chuckingit

2006 has been the most productive year of my life. In only 22 hours, I have accomplished far more this year than in any year. Lets look at some previous years and things I've done:

2000: set up y2k emergency fort...hide inside it for entire year
2001: come out of y2k emergency fort, realize y2k was a hoax by flashlight companies to sell more "emergency flashlights"
2002: do absolutely nothing
2003: get depressed about doing nothing for a year
2004: eat too much
2005: graduate from mason (aka do nothing for entire year)

Now, lets take a look at the amazing year of 2006, and see what I have already done.

midnight: at party, realize the ball just dropped, oh and so did mine
1am: eat the equivalent of 48 lbs of shrimp
3am: leave party, arrive home without any threat of cops or drunk drivers
11am: manage to not offend anyone in church
2pm: listen to "highwayman" on repeat for hours
4:30: ride my bike, for the first time, ever
5:30: try to juggle 7 balls with only 2 hands, fail miserably, try try again, get about 14-16 throws max
9pm: go to walmart, realize walmart sucks
10pm: score the digits of this really cute girl after being nervous about it for 3 hours
11:00 update livejournal, just like everyone wants

So as you can see, my list of accomplishments this year far outweighs any previous years.

Now, I would like to respond to some letters I have received about New Years Resolutions:

Dear Chuckingit,
Every year I just get fatter and fatter. I want to do something about it this year and make a change in my life. I want that perfect tan and washboard abs that I see in the magazines. What can I do?
-Fatty McFatterson

Well, the first thing you need to do is get new friends. Really ugly friends. These people will make you beautiful in comparison, and then you'll be able to make yourself feel much better by making fun of them behind their backs.

Dear Sir Chuckalot,
This year I want to spend more time with family and friends, and to better show my appreciation for them. In what ways do you think I can do this?
-A cow

Well Sir Cow, I think the best thing to do is just try to graze together at the same grazing area. I know this sounds hard, and most of the other cows just want to go run around in the open hills and poop everywhere and do what they want, but I feel a cow can learn a lot from chewing the cud with another cow.

Dear Fuckingit,
I really want to kick my smoking habit this year. Do you have any tips or suggestions on how I can stamp out the flames?
-Nick Orette

I've always believed that the most important aspect of kicking any habit is too...wait what did you call me? Dude that's not funny.

Dear chumpingit,
It's me again, you forgot to answer my smoking question.
-Nic Otine

I'm gonna kick your ass.

Dear Chuckisastupiddork,
Hey man, my mistake, sorry. I really didn't mean it at all. Now if you could just help me out with my smoking question.
-Nic the smoker

That's it, I'm not taking any more letters today. But what I will do is list some of my own New Years Resolutions:

1) Update Live Journal more often
2) Kill the Grinch
3) Get a hostage or two
5) Get rid of the number 4
6) Stay awake for at least 7 hours each day
7) Nah lets say 5 hours
8) win the Royal Rumble
9) start more fires
10) and learn the ancient art of bank robbery

That's all I've thought of so far, but I'll probably think of more.

Remember, even if you fail one of your resulutions, you don't have to wait until 2007, you can take any moment in your life to try again. Or you can just jump out of a window. Either way the world will be better off.

-chuckingit

Merry Christmas everybody!!!

Just because I don't update this thing much anymore, doesn't mean that I don't love you.

I've got that whole running on empty feeling. I don't know if it's because school has been going on so long or if it was the time change or what. I just drove an hour to school and could barely stay awake the whole way here, which is what has been happening more often lately. And then when I got here I realized I had left home at 1:30, which is exactly when my class starts, meaning I just missed class, and I drove here for nothing, and now I have to drive another hour to get to the internship...

Man i must be running on empty to do something like that, I haven't missed a class in like 2 years.

John: "Charles there's a lot of stuff happening in our lives that you aren't posting on live journal..."

Theres no time for that!

CAA XC Championship @ Wilminton NC this Saturday!

GO!

So today after the workout, Coach told me about how someone from Discovery Channel was bugging him about needed a runner to run for 2 hours this Saturday for a special on energy drinks. Basically they need someone to run on the treadmill for an hour and then the track for an hour, all the while drinking Red Bull and whatever else they can come up with. I'm the only guy who does runs that long, so they were begging him for me, but Coach wouldn't let them take me cause I'm racing this Saturday, and they can't film Sunday cause it's TV and there are deadlines.

Man now I'm disappointed, he shouldn't of told me.

My own special on Discovery, how sweet would that be.

Now I'm pissed off and will move on to plan B to get on TV.

A stabbing spree.

W&M this Saturday...Go!

-Chuck will be discovered eventually

LAST WEEK

I went to 7-11 for gas and they were out of regular and medium, or 87 and 89, I guess, or something. (oh my!) So I was forced to get the expensive 93...

TODAY

I go to Sheetz for gas...they are out of 87 and 89...BUT in an effort to keep customers, they charged regular price for the 93...so I got 93 for only 2.79.

That's cheaper than I've seen regular in forever.

How sweet is that?

-Chuck drinks gasoline and it helps his bones grow better than milk ever did

Dear Readers,

I think it is time, I finally get something, off of my chest.

So last year, one time, Dennis was in my room, making fun of me for, hanging my t-shirts on hangers in my closet, instead of folding them up, and putting them in drawers. I quickly, made up some excuse about not having enough drawer space, in my dorm, and bottling up my anger, gave me some sorta disorder where I use, too many commas.

But here at home, I also hang my t-shirts on hangers in my closet instead of folding them up in drawers.

Wow, it really feels good to let that all out.

Well now every one knows where I keep my t-shirts. I hope all you can understand. I mean, I was raised that way, and never thought about putting them in drawers. I thought they'd get wrinkled. But now that I think about it, sometimes my t-shirts get stretched out in the shoulder area from being on hangers all the time.

I can feel the looks of disgust on your faces already. I would understand if you never want to talk to me again. I am deeply sorry, and feel I may be a very troubled individual. Any help would be appreciated.

Before you all go, I was wondering if you could just tell me where you keep your t-shirts. Folded up in drawers, on the floor, or - god forbid - on hangers in your closet like me?

I look forward to a quick response, because the more I think about it, the more I just want to cry, knowing my t-shirts may not be in the correct area, and not knowing what I should do about it.

Thank you,

Chuck

1)  People on XC team and what I think of them:
-John - This guy is really focused this season and making great improvements now that he has a good coach.  He keeps making weird faces at me however, and I do not know how to interpret this.  He's a pretty cool guy and I give him 2 thumbs up.
-Ryan - This guy is also running well this season, right behind John.  Unlike John, however, he's really smart cause he got a B on his first Bio test.  I think if he can build up his intensity and turn into a blood craving animal like John, then he can be pretty good.
-Ryan 2 - This guy is really out of shape cause Mario didn't let him run for an entire year.  I think he will improve a lot this year, as he is now allowed to run.  He also lies a lot. 
-The Golden Child - I'm not sure who this guy is, but he's kinda annoying and has a popped collar, and he kept trying to wear my spikes half an hour before my race, so he's not really on my good side right now.
-Todd - This guy is pretty funny but I don't really know anything about him.  He's cool with me.
-Andrew Jerard - our new head coach, one of the top ranked coaches in the nation as he won National Coach of the Year when he coached at Stanford...He's a really good coach and know's what he's doing, for the most part I listen to what he says which is hard after getting coached by Mario.
-Juli Henner - she talks on her cell phone 23.248 hours a day, and is scared of turtles...how hot is that?

2) I'm not sure what Johns philosophy is, I don't really care, if it works for him he should do it, I'm sure as hell gonna do what I think is right for me.  Nobody has really seen my schedule, so saying I did a lot of junk mileage doesn't really make much sense.  Supplemental running may be the more correct term.  Saying it gave me shin splints I don't believe is addequate, as shin splints are caused by running too fast.  How many injuries do you think people get by running slow?  As for my shin hurting, I'm not going to ice it as I did on Monday, because just like every thing I have ever iced, it's only been worse the next day instead of better.  I will follow Van Aakens method for the remainder of the injury, and continue to race.  I think that is the best thing to do for now.

Dang that was boring...oh well...

Chuckingit (11:46:22 PM): what should i talk about in the back to school edition of live journal?
GrafsHvHrns4Ftng (11:47:20 PM): ah
GrafsHvHrns4Ftng (11:47:25 PM): there are two of you
Chuckingit (11:47:37 PM): just repeat what you said before
Chuckingit (11:47:41 PM): so i can copy and paste this
Chuckingit (11:47:43 PM): into lj
GrafsHvHrns4Ftng (11:47:57 PM): the importance of squirrels to the george mason community

Squirrels are very important to GMU, as they are the only thing poor college students have to eat on the weekends.  Sure, caio may be open, but who wants a 3 day old omellete when you can have a nice juicy squirrel burger!  It's easiest to catch squirrels if you have a butterfly net, then all you have to do is hook up the George Foreman grill and there ya go, the cheapest lunch on campus!

Chuckingit (11:55:38 PM): what should i talk about on livejournal?

zrYz (12:25:30 AM): haha
Chuckingit (12:25:38 AM): oh dang it

This joke has gone on long enough, "with" = "in the vicinity of" or something like that, but there is at least one funny part of the story.  In the night at some point, this girl rolls over, sticks out her finger like she's pointing (hitting me in the back actually) and says, much like the guy at the end of Mortal Kombat, "YOU SUCK" and then continues sleeping. 

OK OK, this does suck, I'm not writing about this crap anymore.  For now on I write about SHIT.  Its the ALL NEW IN YOUR FACE LIVE JOURNAL.  STICK A FORK IN YOUR ASS, YOURE DONE.  ALL CAPS ALL SHIT.  ALL THE TIME.

LETS SEE WHOS READING

STORY POEM TIME

ROSES ARE RED
VIOLETS ARE BLUE
IM AN @NARCHIST VEGAN
OVER THE SUMMER
I CHEATED ON MY BOYFRIEND
WITH 3 OTHER PEOPLE
LOOK UP SHIT IN THE DICTIONARY

Sorry, lost my mind, just for a moment.  You know, living in a small town rumors fly, and then you can make poems out of them.  It just HAPPENS.  Whoever remembers Chumbawamba anyway.

I think the best thing to do now, would be to say what school has done to me, since starting back up, since this is the back to school edition of live journal.

I drive 3 hours a day.  Its not that long of a distance, because in the middle of the day drving from practice to my internship, which is only 19 miles, takes a grand total of 1hr and 12mins.  I am now in favor of raising gas prices.  I already pay about 70 dollars a week for gas, plus the freaking toll road, what's it going to matter now.  19 miles, 79mins.  You do the math.  Stop and go traffic the whole say.  Unbelievable.  So I drive to school and then to work, then drive the 45mins home each night at 10pm, repeat.  I bought a whole bunch of cds from yourmusic.com to listen to on the commute.  I get through 3 cds a day, plus have time for the radio.  That's how much I drive, which I think contributes to my shin problem.  My internship is at Dynamic Sports Performance, where I attempt to coach hockey kids, who call me Coach Chuck, except I have no freaking clue what I'm doing, but I was forced into it so what do you expect, school always finds that last way to screw you over one more time.

I have however, gone to 2 meets, and pr'ed both meets, even though I had to sleep on a floor both nights.  I am now sleeping on the floor every meet, as I feel it helped somehow.  Next meet is the home meet in 2 days, and I'm planning on another pr, shin splints or not.

OK, lets see what else I've done that I've left out, drive/school/practice/work...oh I went to that Baltimore Comic Con, got tons of autographs, like 200 comics for less than a quarter each, and some sketches.  Hmm, I also won People's magazines award for "Worlds Coolest Person" but I also won National Geographics award for "Less Hair on the Legs of a Mammal" so I guess it all evens out.

Speaking of evens, I mean, even, Evan, where is that guy?

OK, it's past midnight, just like when I go to bed every night, so now I can go to bed and repeat the same freaking day I have everyday: get up, drive 1 hour, class or practice, drive 1 hour, work, drive one hour, sleep.

-Chuck, who wishes taco bell gave him more gas

and for anyone wondering why it's all typed weird, the internet screwed up and i had to copy and paste the source code

soccerman4520: have you updated your live journal?
Musclor2K: no but i thought about it

zryz: if you would update....

OK OK I'll update. But I'd better get some comments...

First order of business: Completely contradict last post from long ago.

So I may have said I sit around all day doing absolutely nothing, basically playing video games...well that all changed immediately after I posted that! All I do is work on the farm, workout, and not get enough sleep (3.5 hours last night). I pretty much don't even sit down during the day unless I'm eating. I'm worried my feet are gonna get really mad. Especially during:

*JUGGLING*
So someone lent me a unicycle, and I've got to say, it's the hardest thing to do that I've ever done, except for the time I tried to bake bread inside of my mouth. I can barely even get myself onto the thing with both feet on the pedals, much less move around on it. My shins are all bruised up from it and my calves are all cut up, but I think eventually I'll get the hang of it. I will then have superior balance, which will, in effect, be useful in some way. I'm not sure what way yet.

So I've been practicing this unicycle when I have time, and other juggling related things when I get time away from:

*RUNNING*
Running takes up a good amount of the day, with my wrapping all other activities around it. I usually run in the morning with the XC team, and then they stop and I keep going. This week I got 80 in singles, which is pretty much unheard of in this day and age. Or any day and age it seems. I'm not sure what day and age means. Then I supplement that with any swimming, biking, and weight lifting if I have time. I bought the bike right before I got the unicycle but I never have time to ride it it seems. But I have been consistently lifting weights and sometimes swimming. I usually don't have time for these activities because of:

*FARM WORK*
I live on a farm, hence work needs to be done, but my dad does pretty much all of it, so I only help when help is needed basically...except for:

*SURGERY*
My dad is going in for surgery tomorrow, and is going to be gone for awhile. I'm pretty sure he hasn't been out of the house for a night in many years, so this is gonna be weird for the both of us I guess. But for now:

*THE FARM IS MINE*
I gotta finish doing everything that needs doing, which includes putting the last of the honey that we have currently extracted into barrels, and then selling the barrels on Wednesday. I'm not really sure how all this is done but I guess I'll figure it out. I also have to give the cattle medicine if they need it, as a case of hoof rot is going around lately and make sure they all have water and salt and whatever they need to not die. Also the garden needs weeding. This all may effect the:

*UPCOMING COLLEGE SEMESTER*
All I have left is an internship, and I don't know where I'm doing it yet, and I don't really have much time, and I may need to be around here a lot. I'm gonna try to do it at the high school, but I don't know if I can get in enough hours doing that, so we'll have to see. If not I guess I'll try somewhere else, maybe on campus, but I don't really want to drive to Fairfax everyday. Maybe Prince William will work...I should of figured this out earlier...but:

*UNICYCLING IS MORE IMPORTANT*

*OH YEAH!*
I ran my second race of the season today. I almost forgot. The first race was Liberty 5K on July 4th, but this one was my first half marathon, or 13.109 miles in Potomac, MD. I managed to finish in 10th place in 1:22:13 on a pretty hilly out and back course, which according to an online pace calculator is 6:16 pace, which is pretty fast...hmm, I probably pr'd in the 10 mile and 20K and everything. Excellent, I'll have to look into that later. I didn't think I'd do so good cause my last long run was 8min pace almost. I'm doing pretty good for early in the season training races it seems.

Well, I usually try not to post a list of what I've been doing, but since it's pretty much my first update all summer I guess I can do it. I always expect this to be totally different when I start typing, and then I type something completely different than planned it seems. This post was supposed to be about the benefits of bathing in melted down Snickers bars. Oh well, I'm out of time now.

-Chuck used to eat Snickers everyday for breakfast.
