All Blogs Go to Heaven

This Blog is Dead, Long Live the Blog.
It's been a good run...85 posts over the last year...but i never really expected her to last, in this form, as long as she did. This was the pupae, now we're moving into the chrysalis stage (thank you Freshman Earth Science!).

I've finally built the site i wanted a year ago and if you've stuck around this long, please move over to my new site, www.adammackwright.com. There, you will find my new site, with information on my clothing line, KWblack, and you will find my new blog, The Conglomerate: The Collective Thoughts of Adam Mack Wright. (Presumptious? You betcha!)

Please update your RSS readers, Favorites and most importantly, the links on your own blogs...this should clean things up nicely for you.

See you over at Wordpress.

The World is Ending this Weekend

That's it. It's all over. We've had 4 straight days of Apocalypse sightings. This is the end of days. Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies. Rivers and seas boiling. Forty years of darkness. Earthquakes, volcanoes... The dead rising from the grave. Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together - mass hysteria.

Today's Sign that...well, no it's not

This is just too ridiculous to be a sign of the end of days, but it's also too ridiculous to not post...

Michael Vick Sued for $63 Billion; Al-Qaeda ties Alleged (no, for real, click the link, i couldn't make this shit up if i wanted to.)

Also, i'm not sure if i mentioned this but my Fantasy Football Team's name for this season is Mike Vick's Kennel Club. See how topical i can be?!?

Today's Sign That the Apocalypse is Upon Us

Act like you're surprised...i dare you.


(I love Deadspin's take on this. If you like sports and you're not reading this blog, well, you're an idiot.)

Links of the Day

Is it just me or have i posted a lot this week? Things keep coming up that are worth talking about i guess. Check over to Championship Vinyl in a minute because there will be something there too.

This is addictive, and caused me a raging hatred of Rhode Island (neither a Road, nor an Island, discuss.)

Saw the Simpson's Movie last night...really good. Almost every single memorable character made an appearance, including Professor Frink in the first few minutes and some classic Ralph Wiggum moments. "I like boys now!"

Also, i'm on chapter 24 of Harry Potter and i'm thinking about taking the afternoon off to finish it. Call me a nerd but i'm racing to get this done before some jackass tells me what happens. Seriously, that's an offense punishable by a swift kick to the groin. Girl, guy, i don't care. Spoil this for me and i'm giving you a crotch shot. You have been warned.

Also, i know quite a few of the readers here will be playing in our fantasy football league this year and it looks like we still need 5 people or so to play. Let me know if you're interested. Also, if you need help naming your team, here is a highly hilarious and highly inappropriate guide. My team name? Mike Vick's Kennel Club (yes, passport to hell has been stamped. i'm aware.)

Tagged

This feels suspiciously like a chain letter e-mail and i'm more than a little worried about that. 8 wacky things about Adam doesn't really fit in this blog, because, well, this blog is rarely about me. Also, this blog is about things that are not A-OK, and luckily, i am A-OK. BUT, Erin sent this to me and i'm intrigued by it (read: desperately happy to be included) and i think i'll go for it.

THE RULES:
1. Post these rules before you give you the facts.
2. List 8 random facts about yourself.
3. At the end of your post, choose (tag) 8 people and list their names (linking to them).
4. Leave them a comment on their blog letting them know they’ve been tagged!

8 random facts about Adam

1. I was the fastest skater in the Arizona Youth Hockey All-Star game 2 years running. Fastest ice skater...in the friggin' desert. Somewhat of a dubious distinction/backhanded compliment.

2. I take piano lessons regularly...this would be normal if i was still pursuing a childhood talent, but no, I started as a 23-year old.

3. I want to be a lounge singer that sings dirty words to popular songs ie. Total Eclipse of the Heart becomes Totally Ripped a Big Fart, or a gay male version of Piano Man. (John, the real estate novelist never had time for a wife, was talking with Davie, who's still in the Navy...and that's probably why they seem so into each other...)

4. I also think i would be a good stand up comedian and i'm currently working on material.

5. I am colorblind. (I see color, i'm not a dog, i just don't see shades of color very well. By the way, how the hell did we find out that dogs don't see color?)

6. I had a 3.8 GPA in high school and a 3.6 in college without ever doing my homework, reading the required material (i stopped buying books completely at one point) or studying. My 3.8 in high school earned me a class ranking of 185th in my class...them were some smart mutha fuckas in mah class.

5. I have an unhealthy and unmanly obsession with the daily heroics of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears. I call them the Trainwreck Trifecta.

6. I was in show choir in high school (singing, dancing, sequins, etc.)...and it was actually a cool thing to do. Nobody believes me but it was.

7. My dream job is to be a fly fishing guide in the summers and a snowboard instructor in the winters, drink dark beer and have a beard at all times.

8. Despite the fact that almost all of my friends are married, i'm fairly confident that i don't have what it takes.

okay, i’m tagging these folks: Ron, Nole, Kevo, Neil, Ben Blakey, and i'm only doing 5 because even these 5 won't respond.
