I went to the mall today. As I'm walking across the parking lot, I saw a Carolla CE. Something about that caught my attention. I really don't know why.

Carolla CE

I stopped thinking about it and went about my business. Then I walked through a completely different part of the parking lot and saw another Carolla CE.

If you run it all together, like it is on the back of the car, it looks like CAROLLACE. Put a break in that and doesn't it sound like a stripper name?

Do you know what really grinds my gears?

If you listen to satellite radio at all, you've no doubt hear the following introduction:

"Are you drowning in more than $10,000 in credit card debt!?!"

The commercial goes on to blab about how their credit counsellors can work with you to restructure your debt so that you're paying 'pennies on the dollar'

What kind of crap is this!?! I dutifully pay all my bills, stay on top of my credit situation and you're gonna swoop in at the last second and only pay 'pennies on the dollar'? That's a bunch of garbage. You were the dumb-ass that bought more stuff than you had the money to pay for. You should get stuck with the whole bill.

And don't give me that nonsense about not having the money for necessities. If your situation is desperate enough that you don't have money for necessities, then you should be looking for help THEN, not after racking up $10,000 or more on a credit card.

And then there's the jerk-offs that want to help you secure business credit, so you can incur even more debt, after you've exhausted your personal options. How irresponsible is that? You can't get a bank to lend you any money on your own name, so you'll create a corporation so you can get access to even more money you're never paying back.

Christ do I hate irresponsibility.

Blog (Old) Song Of The Day:

George Michael - Praying For Time

Failing an interest in seeing 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' (which I still want to see but will probably require a girl for a companion to it), here is a list of other movies I want to see, and are coming in the near future (as witnessed by the commercials I saw while watching basketball tonight):

Forgetting Sarah Marshall (I know, but its a complete list)
Street Kings
Iron Man
Speed Racer
Now that my sister is not likely to be free to see any movies with me (new baby and all) I need to find someone that will go with me to non-traditionally-guy movies. Up first - Forgetting Sarah Marshall.

Any takers?
Blog Question Of The Day:

Even though they lost, should I still buy a Memphis Tigers basketball jersey?

Dear Smirnoff Ice Company:

Could you please not put the bottle caps on your beverage with a 150 ton hydraulic press? The exertion that it takes to remove them has removed most of the skin on my hand.

Thank you.
