earthquake!!!
by josh on July 29th, 2008
yeah, so there was a pretty decent sized earthquake here today. right before lunch…..as i was at work. it was probably the biggest one i’ve been in so far. nothing really bad happened here…..just scared the shit out of people. i’ll have to see what kinda mess i have at home though, as it’s a lot closer to the epicenter.
to give you an idea of where the actual quake was…
….and better yet….a taping of judge judy captured the movement on camera.
or better yet….the reaction from the big brother tv show cast…..
it’s really kinda surreal. i mean, the whole experience of an earthquake. that video does a good job of just showing ppl’s natural reactions to it though. at first it’s like, “omg….WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT!”….then it turns into a fear, like the next 30 secs (that feel like 2 hours) of your life could be your last…..and then, finally the ground stops moving….and all anyone can do is jabber like abuncha bumbling idiots.
crazy and weird.
ps. i also changed the email subscribtion a bit too, so i am also still just seeing if that’s working correctly. i think i have it all switched out to what i want now though.
update.

so i switched my blog over to a new domain. new look and all that jazz too, obviously. what a freakin’ headache it’s been.
there are still some bugs that need to be worked out, but we’ll see how it goes.
i updated the email subscriptions too, so it should change. you may get one huge email of the entire feed though at first. sorry about that.

so…along with the all-star break…there is the mid-season break in my fantasy baseball leagues. i am in 2 different leagues this year. one is a pay league and the other is just a random public league that’s just for fun.
i had different draft orders between the 2 teams, so while i have a few players on both teams….they are pretty different. what’s crazy is i have the EXACT same record with both my teams! talk about weird. it’s good enough to be in 1st place in both leagues, but i am not sure how the heck this worked out.
here’s the top standings in both leagues:
…and in case anyone even cares…here’s my teams:

this is hilarious….cause it’s totally true.
proud to be an american.
by josh on July 4th, 2008
….and proud that i can freely share things like this:
it’s an old vid, but for those that haven’t seen.
there are days when i don’t think it’s easy to be a proud american anymore. like this fourth of july. all the support in the world goes out to the troops, cause it’s not their fault. and i won’t go into it that much……but it’s no wonder the rest of the world can easily hate us.
being an american should be about embracing different cultures, creeds, races, and rising above it all to change societal norms. not imposing our generic idealistic western way of life on others around the globe.
it’s all bullshit and in the purest form.
happy 4th of july!
