Apparently I’m a Hipster…

So I’m writing this post from a coffee shop near the Art Museum area.  I don’t drink coffee but i got a Cappuchino ($3.50) out of obligation (when in rome…).

Anyway there’s an old lady in here clipping coupons, there’s a lesbian across the way from me.  A gay dude just walked out (great fake tan).  There’s a hipster girl behind the counter who I’m guessing is some sort of “artist”.  Couple other dudes are reading newspapers.  Two girls with Uggs walked in and got frappuchinos.  Definitely some ambient music playing with inaudible words that makes me confused and relaxed at the same time.

I’m not here by choice, I’m meeting a client here, but it’s good to see how these people rock it.  Kind of just hang out in the coffee shop, wait for something cool to happen. Read about the news so they have something to talk about with their other hipster firends.

Look at me I’m cool too.  I’m in a coffee shop, blogging.  I’ve come a long way from playing with legos and G.I Joe.  I guess now I have to get a cool haircut like someone in Fall Out Boy.  Yea… that’s the ticket…  yea.

Brian Dawkins a Denver Bronco

Well it has happened before so take a deep breath and get over it.  Like that relationship you had that knew eventually was coming to an end but didn’t want it to, Brian Dawkins has went the way of Steve Carlton, Charles Barkley, Reggie White, Randall Cunningham, Eric Lindros and Allen Iverson.  Dawkins signed a five year deal with the Denver Broncos last week.

There’s a lot of sentiment in Philadelphia about the Eagles “shouldn’t have let him get away”.  Well it’s not like the Eagles didn’t extend him a contract offer.  Brian Dawkins could have accepted the Eagles offer (whatever it was).  Instead he chose to go for more money and more years.

Can’t blame Dawkins for taking the payday but you also can’t blame the Eagles for not doling out booku bucks either.  The simple truth is the Eagles did not remain competitive over the last decade by handing out huge contracts to aging veterans like Troy Vincent and Bobby Taylor.  They did it by locking up young talent long term (usually for a discount).

Yes everyone would much rather have Dawkins retiring with the Eagles, but life goes on.  Brian Dawkins was not the Brian Dawkins of 2002 in the beginning of the 2008 season.  When he got beat badly a couple of times by Terrell Owens in the Eagles first Eagles vs Cowboys meeting, Philadelphia was calling for Dawkins removal from the starting lineup or at least bracing for his departure this offseason.  So don’t be a hypocrite.  Don’t cry now about it but in October you were ready to throw him out like yesterdays newspaper.

Yes Dawkins played inspired at the end of the season.  I think that has more to do with Jim Johnson finding innovative ways to use him without depending on him heavily in coverage, mostly blitzing.

So get over it.  Dawkins chose to leave the Eagles and the Eagles didn’t break the bank to keep him here.  There’s fault on both sides but don’t think the Eagles wouldn’t have had him on the team had he signed the contract.

Sam Adams White Ale

Sam Adams White Ale is back in Season.  You know how I know?  I know because yesterday I went to the bar around 3pm to watch some college basketball,I saw it on draft and decided I was going to have a couple.  12:45am rolled around and I had noticed that a shit load of people had entered the bar unbeknowst to me.  Of course i didn’t know it was 12:45 I thought it was like 8:00pm.  These nights happen more than I would maybe like them to.

Anyway, one of my more favorite past times is trying to piece together the night before by using what I call “Booze Clues”. That’s when you look at your phone the next day and determine who you had corresponded with during your inebriation the night before, whether it be phone calls, text messages or whatever.  Slowly but surely if you get in touch with these people it will jog your memory.

Obviously look at the text messages first and if you can’t get a full grasp of what was going on at the time start calling people.

Kermit the Frog Arrested on Domestic Abuse Charges

miss-piggyPolice were called to the Los Angeles home of Kermit the Frog early Friday morning to investigate a domestic dispute between his on and off again girlfriend Miss Piggy.  Kermit the Frog allegedly struck Miss Piggy several times in the face leaving several bruises and a black eye.

To the right is a police photo obtained by TMZ.com early this afternoon.

Friends of Kermit have been increasingly alarmed at his behavior lately.  An unnamed source saying Kermit has recently been abusing cocaine and alcohol on a regular basis leading to a very irascible temperament.

Sources say the argument started innocently enough over the toilet seat being up and Kermit’s socks lying beside the hamper and not in it.  It is believed that this along with Miss Piggy’s incessant nagging and annoying voice (as well as the substance abuse) led to Kermit acting out in violence.

When Muppet character Beaker was asked to comment on the situation he was quoted to say, “Meep Meep Meep Meep!”

Cialis – Bathtubs and Beaches

When the Ocean just won't due

I was just wondering who the fuck gets tandem bathtubs on a beach? How does this happen and for what reason. Obviously there’s not running water on the beach or at least not hot water. Which is essentially the reason for a tub, taking a hot bath. So what the fuck s going on here? It seems like it would take a hell of a lot of effort to lug two claw foot tubs to the beach just to lounge around in without hot water. Even if you pour hot water into the tub after you get them to the beach (which you then have to matriculate the hot water down there), how long does the water stay hot? Not very long.

The logistics of this endeavor are just hard to justify the end result of having a romantic bath on the beach with your lady friend for all of 10 minutes. And if you’re all about being together in water why don’t you just get in the FUCKING OCEAN?

And then there’s the whole thing of why are there two tubs?  Why not just one tub that two people can fit into?  I think if I were with a lady friend ,on the beach in a tub, I would want to be in the same tub as her.  You know putting on whatever cheesy moves I could to get her bathing suit off or at least trying to get some good fingerblasting/clit massaging in.

But then again that’s just me and my perverted tub/beach fantasy.

Note: I just saw a tempurpedic bed commercial where a couple was outside in some sort of garden/park on a bed admiring the view.  Is there an underground society of well groomed, good looking 30-40 something homless people that take baths at the beach and sleep on tempuredic mattresses outside in parks?  Beerslugger.com will get to the bottom of this!
