Then we had Madonna...who well...had a less than child apporiate performance on television. It even started off like a musical porn and slowly transformed into an orgy with the camera focusing on her mostly sexing up all the guys and one girl.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To make things better, we have the one dweeb without a shirt dancing next to her, trying to steal the show. Now this guy isn't buff by any means and probably could have used a shirt, too bad he didnt have one. I just wonder if he lost his luggage or what. If I were there in the crowd I would have gladly taken mine off my back, and given it to him. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those are my comment about the Grammy openings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;Listening To: &lt;a href="http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playlistId=564795&amp;s=143441&amp;amp;i=564736"&gt;OK Go - There's a Fire&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16953733-113944872901191649?l=madcivilian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://madcivilian.blogspot.com/feeds/113944872901191649/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16953733&amp;postID=113944872901191649' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16953733/posts/default/113944872901191649'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16953733/posts/default/113944872901191649'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://madcivilian.blogspot.com/2006/02/music-and-sex.html' title='Music and Sex'/><author><name>Neil</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13042672581305930875</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cFHObgqLxA4/TdVLAky9MNI/AAAAAAAAAvQ/oMvnaBgKhVk/s220/steampunk.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16953733.post-113903475233052791</id><published>2006-02-03T22:26:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-02-03T22:32:32.340-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The Fuzz</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: arial;font-size:85%;" &gt;So on my way home from my date with Trish...I got pulled over for the first time.

So, those are my feeling for now...have a great day!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On a side note: My mom needs to put the telephone somewhere where it is readily availible for use.

"What?" you may be thinking, but inside those little plastic bubbles of enjoyment...led me to great dissapointment earlier this evening. You see, inside that plastic bubble of joy is 25 cents worth of rubber band. Yes, the very same type of thing that you would find at your local Staples. or even you office. 25 cents worth of my hard earnd money and all I got was a fucking rubber band. Who does this to people, espically little kids. If your kid is amused by a rubber band, I say head on over to your local Staples and pick up a bag of them for $1.28 (You'll probably get about 200 or so, making each rubber band worth less than a cent). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is my rant for the day.

I recently got into a fender bender and now have to get a new car. That is the only real new news. Other than that everything is okay. I must say, the next best sandwich to the PB&amp;J, is the toasted PB&amp;amp;J. All you gotta do is throw those two slices in bread in the toaster 20 seconds, a layer of peanut butter and a layer of jelly later, you are in heaven my friend ( the toasted PB&amp;J is also nicely complimented with nice tall glass of milk).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't you love little kids? I mean, they like to do stuff that big people do. Like, say, take pictures with their cheap camera that they got for Christmas. That is what my sister likes to do. What really makes me laugh is that they don't know how to center the camera so when they take the shot, everything is outta wack.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Example of this (me, Christmas morning):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/8116/1092/1600/20051225101704A_2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/8116/1092/320/20051225101704A_2.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless those little kids.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 255, 255);"&gt;Listening To: Mad Season - Matchbox 20&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16953733-113704113999878254?l=madcivilian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://madcivilian.blogspot.com/feeds/113704113999878254/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16953733&amp;postID=113704113999878254' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16953733/posts/default/113704113999878254'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16953733/posts/default/113704113999878254'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://madcivilian.blogspot.com/2006/01/posed-to-death.html' title='Posed To Death'/><author><name>Neil</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13042672581305930875</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cFHObgqLxA4/TdVLAky9MNI/AAAAAAAAAvQ/oMvnaBgKhVk/s220/steampunk.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16953733.post-113669094214299337</id><published>2006-01-07T19:17:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-07T19:29:41.896-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Whoo!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;I finally got Blogger to work for me again! I have had some trouble getting logged onto the page, and finally today I have reached some success! Now on the main course (this has been stewing since Monday).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My question is, why do we feel that is okay to be naked in the bathroom. If you walked into any other room that looked the same except for the faucets, we would have a problem with it. I think it is a little weird that when we build a building, we designate one room where it can be considered okay to whip our "naughty bits" out and carry on business as usual. Although bathrooms are a room of great thought, many great things have been thought up and carried out in those rooms. So in other words: Bathrooms are a big room where you can get half naked and carry out great ideas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So that is just a little question for all of you to ponder about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 255);"&gt;Listening To: The Bravery - Unconditional&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16953733-113669094214299337?l=madcivilian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://madcivilian.blogspot.com/feeds/113669094214299337/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16953733&amp;postID=113669094214299337' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16953733/posts/default/113669094214299337'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16953733/posts/default/113669094214299337'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://madcivilian.blogspot.com/2006/01/whoo.html' title='Whoo!'/><author><name>Neil</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13042672581305930875</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cFHObgqLxA4/TdVLAky9MNI/AAAAAAAAAvQ/oMvnaBgKhVk/s220/steampunk.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16953733.post-113600010408473430</id><published>2005-12-30T19:26:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-30T19:35:04.093-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Back In Black . . .

It was great and all except for the fact that we held it in the basement of a house. Due to a shortage of chairs I was forced to eat my room temperature pizza on top of a tin of popcorn that I had won (Whoopie...I haven't even cracked it open). Added to that there was no one that I knew, except my family that I saw everyday. So it was just my brother and I hangin out in the basement of my grandpa's sisters house. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;I hope that your next family reunion doesn't end up with you eating pizza on a tin of popcorn. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;And yeah I know, I'm a bad blogger...what are you gonna do...beat me with a wet noodle?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16953733-113513873969206682?l=madcivilian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://madcivilian.blogspot.com/feeds/113513873969206682/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16953733&amp;postID=113513873969206682' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16953733/posts/default/113513873969206682'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16953733/posts/default/113513873969206682'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://madcivilian.blogspot.com/2005/12/room-temp-pizza-and-popcorn.html' title='Room Temp Pizza and Popcorn'/><author><name>Neil</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13042672581305930875</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cFHObgqLxA4/TdVLAky9MNI/AAAAAAAAAvQ/oMvnaBgKhVk/s220/steampunk.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16953733.post-113445037616194170</id><published>2005-12-12T20:20:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-12T21:06:16.180-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Just Like The Old Western Movies</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/8116/1092/1600/Serenity%20Now.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/8116/1092/400/Serenity%20Now.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;font-size:85%;" &gt;The title really has no meaning at all other than at the beginning of a Black Eyed Peas song (Bebot for those that have the CD) there is a 4 second tune that sounds really cool to me.

We have a radio station here that, as soon a Thanksgiving is over, they pump Christmas music 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Someone that works at that radio station facility has to crack at some point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In my mind I see the employees walking around in little jingley, pointy toed shoes and Christmas hats drinking egg nog all day long. Then all of a sudden Hector, the tech guy, just loses it and runs around the office, shirt half off and screaming for it all to go away! Those are the things that if I saw, would make my day complete. On many occasion, I would like to do that myself so I could get out of doing some things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The urge to act like I've gone mad occurs at work quite often. As soon as I set foot in into the door, all the energy in the world is sucked out of me. I could have been bouncing off the walls from having just drank 12 energy drinks and 5 double shot expressos from Starbucks, and still feel tired once I drag my ass past through door frame. The act of going crazy (A) would supply me extra energy and  (B) they would let me go home (hopefully someone would drive me there).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;ul  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 255);"&gt;Listening To: Only - Nine Inch Nails&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16953733-113410432953028476?l=madcivilian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://madcivilian.blogspot.com/feeds/113410432953028476/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16953733&amp;postID=113410432953028476' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16953733/posts/default/113410432953028476'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16953733/posts/default/113410432953028476'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://madcivilian.blogspot.com/2005/12/snow-day-part-2.html' title='Snow Day - Part 2'/><author><name>Neil</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13042672581305930875</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cFHObgqLxA4/TdVLAky9MNI/AAAAAAAAAvQ/oMvnaBgKhVk/s220/steampunk.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16953733.post-113407425136407966</id><published>2005-12-08T12:21:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-08T12:37:31.376-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Snow Day - Part 1</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img style="font-family: arial;" src="http://www.boomspeed.com/drjade/Listening.bmp" /&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet another round of my &lt;a href="http://www.heyfreak.com/"&gt;rip off&lt;/a&gt;, Listen To This!

Crap, its 10:30 at night.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember awhile ago when I got up on winter mornings, I used to go toss my clothing in the dryer and wait for them to "iron out." Then, I would go and eat breakfast and freezing my ass off because the air vent pointed straight at me. Then I would go and sit in front of the dryer to sponge the heat off of it. I got to thinking about this yesterday and thought, "Man, I think this is how a homeless person feels. Only probably a little colder because their living outside and I'm in a house sitting next to a dryer waiting for my brother to get out of the shower."&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I just plain feel sorry for homeless people. It's not like it is always their fault. Yeah, there are those people that just suck money from the government, making us pay more in taxes to support their lazy ass while we work ours off, but the people that actually managed to get sucked into a spiraling vortex of poverty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;It's really mind-blowing to think how they live like that from day to day, and how much we take things for granted. So next time you sitting in front of a dryer feeling sorry for yourself, just think about Homeless Bob who is sitting in an alleyway freezing to death. &lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The moral of this story: Next time don't try to walk as fast as you can past the people ringing the bells for the Salvation Army so you dont have to give money. If you do, just remember that Homeless Bob, and all his buddies, think your an asshole. This is A.K.A., give a little to the poor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Man that was deep...kinda. &lt;/span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16953733-113401675977974521?l=madcivilian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://madcivilian.blogspot.com/feeds/113401675977974521/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16953733&amp;postID=113401675977974521' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16953733/posts/default/113401675977974521'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16953733/posts/default/113401675977974521'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://madcivilian.blogspot.com/2005/12/homeless-in-house.html' title='Homeless In A House'/><author><name>Neil</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13042672581305930875</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cFHObgqLxA4/TdVLAky9MNI/AAAAAAAAAvQ/oMvnaBgKhVk/s220/steampunk.png'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16953733.post-113341167670785975</id><published>2005-11-30T20:26:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-11-30T20:56:04.453-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Corporate Payback</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://wizbangblog.com/images/2005/11/ronald_mcdonald_arrested.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://wizbangblog.com/images/2005/11/ronald_mcdonald_arrested.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is from &lt;a href="http://wizbang.com"&gt;Wizbang&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Looks like Ronald MacDonald is a hamburgler...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) - You'd think that just working at a Wendy's restaurant would be difficult for Ronald MacDonald.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, the 22-year-old MacDonald - no relation to Ronald McDonald, the clown - has been charged with stealing money from a safe at the Wendy's.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Police said the restaurant manager called police early Monday, saying he found MacDonald and another employee taking money from the safe at about 1:30 a.m.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;MacDonald and Steve Lemay, 20, both of Manchester, were detained at the store until police arrived.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I mean how do live with a name like that? I would kill my parents, plus why work and Wendy's when you could get a bunch of free stuff from McDonald's with a name like that, free stuff!
