You are not going to believe but I thought of this idea of "micro-blogging" back in 2004. I wanted a venue where I can just jot down my thoughts, jokes, wisdom nuggets aka Gems and various other nonsense. My mind is always racing with some garbage and sometimes I just want to write it down. So since there was no Twitter yet I decided to just start a blog which is this thing. And now there is a Twitter. And someone is a millionaire.
The succession is so simple though right? You have an online journal, then a blog, then better blogs then someone said we need a microblogging platform. Then boom Twitter.
Now alot of people dont understand Twitter especially like old people or middle aged people like our parents and uncles aunts what have you. But Twitter is like a streaming news site but on your phone. Depending on who you follow right because you pretty much control your news flow. Outside of personal tweeting that's really the best use. I wish I would have nailed down this idea and then sold it but that was a pipe dream. Im not a computer guy, I know my way around them but to create the site from an IT solution type of way is just not in me.

Sam J just enhances shit
My daughter hates sleep. Like really fucking despises sleep and it's alwyas a chore to get her to lay down. Once she lays down it's the 100 questions game so I like to just read her books, calm her down. A while ago a friend tweeted me this link that led to this book on Amazon that was hot on pre-order. It's perfect. Because I've actually said this to my daughter before. GO THE FUCK TO SLEEP!

Hump Day Hottie of The Week
Stacey Dash. I remember being like 15 years old and staying up late to watch skinemax at like 1 am. You could always find Stacey Dash naked at that time on that channel. Boinking. She was hot. Still got it going on.

Wash Your Apples
98% of apples sold in produce sections all over the country contain pesticides.
Yet it's considered safe to eat. If it's considered safe to eat why publish a report saying 98% of apples have pesticides. Cuz then it sounds like you are saying it's not safe to eat. They say the nutrition from eating the fruit does you more good than ingesting a tiny bit of RAID residue.
Wash your apples. And your grapes.

Hump Day Hottie of the Week
Zoe Saldana. She makes me want to take her on a carribean vacation and frolick in the white sand beaches. Cutie pie. Her bio says she's puerto rican and domincan so that makes sense. That's a crazy bitch for sure though. Good thing she is hot.

KITT
Remember Knight Rider? One of my favorite shows ever. Just so cool. The premise, the car, the stories and of course the Hoff. First thing is, I had this big Tyke wheel bike as a kid. Then (and I couldn't find a pic) I had a regualr standard bike with a Kitt attachement on the front. Basically a replica of kitt in a mini plastic version that sat on top of the handle bars. With cool stickers and such. Yesterday while driving home from NJ i found this guy who had a replica of Kitt on his hitch. Was awesome. I'd pay like a million dollars to own that if I had a million dollars to spare.
Here's to Knight Rider.
