Modern Man is weak & pathetic...

I recently read an article in the paper that compared how much faster & stronger our ancestors were & we do somewhat pale in comparison. Examples include the average hunter was as fast as Usain Bolt & just take a look at the weapons & armour that Knights wielded/wore & it kind of says it all. Now in all fairness with all the technology we created to get us around & move things that kind of makes sense. We don't need these abilities & skill sets to survive as much as we used to. Just look at the more powerful men in the world in both politics & business...smart & shrewd they may be...but how many of them would survive out in the wild...I guessing few & far between. However...it was while watching ESPN on the cross trainer (making believe I was chasing after prey uphill) I saw someTHING or should I say someone who really does put modern man to shame...not so much a warrior among men as a BEAST...yes I am talking about #15 on New Mexico's women's soccer team...you really need to see this young "lady" in action on the field to see primordial humankind at it's worst...I cannot believe what an animal she is...I've never seen a male player do & get away with as much. I both laughed & felt revulsion at the same time as she elbowed in the back, kicked in the face, pony-tail whipped members of the opposing team. How she wasn't thrown out of the game is way beyond me...but I think she should be banned for life (& seek Anger Management counseling) . I think MMA fighters would be taken aback...especially since after seeing her...they are probably & rightly so worried that she will be banned from soccer & enter their ranks...so please view this video in all it's glory...& lament in the fact that not only are there more women in the workforce & graduating college then men...but now they are tougher & more vicious then us...please excuse me now...I have to go pick out my outfit & apply my Kiehl products before I go for brunch with the girls...

8 Long Brutal Years...

They really are the World's Greatest fans, I just don't know how they do it...I mean can you imagine your team going for 8 loooong years without winning a championship?!? It just boggles the mind! I'm guessing this incredible willpower, constitution, & stamina they possess must translate in all other areas of their lives. Bravo Yankee fans on sticking by your team through these last 8 grueling heart-breaking years. Thank you for showing us lame METS fans (last win 1986) Red Sox fans(went 86 years w/o a win) Chicago Cubs ( last win 1908...yes over 100 years) Phillies (went 27 years in between last 2 wins) Chicago White Sox(90 some odd years between wins) how it's done. I look forward to listening to you bask in your glory...until you go back to being a bunch of cry babies the next time your team loses a game & you have to go a few years without a Championship. You are the worst fans of any team & you should be the greatest! Your team has more championships then any other in any other sport. Your team has produced giants among men like Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Mickey Mantle & it looks very likely that Jeter will join that list. So step up & start acting like the players & start showing some class & stop being the worst most spoiled fans in sports. For the record...I was rooting for the Yankee's to win & as a New Yorker I'm happy they did.

Is O a V!?!

By V I am referring to a "Visitor" the name the aliens in the show V, a remake of the classic 80's Sci-Fi mini-series ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_%28TV_series%29) that ABC relaunched last night go by. I couldn't help but notice some striking similarities between the V's & O's agenda & modus operandi... for example

  • The V's come from a world without countries...they are a "global" people...oh really?
  • The V's will only interview with handpicked news organizations ...hmm
  • The interviewer cannot ask questions that could challenge or potentially cast them in a negative light...hmmm
  • The V's have community organizers ...they what?!?
  • The V's offer Universal Health Care ...for free???
  • The V's greatest weapon "Blind Devotion" ...sounding familiar...?

Now, in all fairness last night was the first episode, so we will need to see where this goes, but please keep in mind the show's main premise is that some humans become aware of their plan & rebel with help from Vs who believe their cause is wrong...& it aired last night...what else happened last night...some key wins in the Gubernatorial races is what...coincidence?!? Is Art imitating Life here...stay tuned...
