ecks

Today, I deleted one of my Facebook friends because she, for the past two weeks, has continually been posting negative status messages about Obama.

I couldn't handle it.

I didn't know what to say.

So I pushed the little X, and rid myself of it. :)


**You know, for as long as I've known enough about the world to care about it, GWB has been our president.  8 years is a long time, when you're almost 25.  I must say, there was a little part of me that thought he would always be our president.  No really, I mean it was kind of all I'd ever known as an adult who had a voice and could care about things.

So, needless to say, Tuesday was a little surreal.  Do I think the world will turn on its head? No.  Do I think I might cringe just a little bit less when I watch the news?  Maybe.

But I'm still going to be ruthless about my facebook associates. :)

The Todd Palin Show

Every now and again, conversations between myself and KK lead to ideas we would like to see put forth on television. Previous pitches include:

Wild Dinner: Impossible
Uniting chef Robert Irvine of Dinner: Impossible with Bear Grylls of Man vs. Wild. Robert has to construct a gourmet meal for approximately 400 people in a short amount of time out of items Bear locates after they have been purposefully stranded on an island/in the mountains/etc.

Sportstime with Samantha
Lots of talk about the "third plate line" and reminders as to the rules of football.

The Fanboy Next Door
A no-frills cooking show. Hosted by someone like Harry Knowles, but much less successful and extroverted. Easy meals that can be constructed and consumed without ceasing your current quest in World of Warcraft and/or Star Wars marathon (Original trilogy only, of course.)

Latest pitch:

The Todd Palin Show
(Inspired by Jason Sudekis' latest portrayal of Mr. Palin during SNL 2 weeks ago. The Todd Palin Show would cover the obvious topics (ice fishing bait & tackle, proper hunting apparel selection, jerky recipies) and also feature culturall relevant debates (Artic Cat vs. Skidoo, bow hunting vs. rifle hunting vs. musket hunting). TTPS would air either on the Outdoor Network or PBS, preferably paired with the fishing show hosted by former Minnesota Twins player, Kent Hrbek.

i have a wide variety of sources.



A small part of me feels bad for posting this. Because its a little like the questions that children trap each other with (I, for example, have a terribly embarrassing story about the confusion between Christain/Catholic/Lutheran). But then I remember she's an adult and the outcome is a little more serious than, "Who will I sit with at the lunch table?"
