OK, I swear I do not know how I do these things, but I just did it!!

I flipped to Foxlife (Poland) Since they show Entourage on Mondays. The show is called Ekipa, so once I see that I know its Entourage. So the trailer starts, then I go let me see how many seasons Entourage has, so I go to Wiki, read quick, then I click on Vince character to see what else he does, then I start thinking of Curb your Enthusiasm because when I google I also got HBO, and then I find out that Larry David is doing a movie with Woody Allen, but a 7th season of Curb is expected later this year.

So far, nothing fishy, but then!!! THEN!! THENN!! ON TV, LARRY DAVID APPEARS ON AN EPISODE OF ENTOURAGE! Luck? Coincidence?? No, ThePurg does it again!

I will try again, Someone will sms/call/email me in the next 10-15 mins, lets see if that works!!!

Purgatorian Post #1330

I have been waiting for the new league seasons to start and I was happy to find something to watch to entertain me during this month.

Beach Soccer is a sport with fast movements, and almost every team has a chance to win. It only takes a second or less to score a goal. I have seen many exciting games, spectacular goals and last second goals that would keep you at edge of your seat. There are no underdogs, well except the Solomon Islands, but the rest are more or less evenly matched. The UAE is one the countries representing Asia and will host the 2009 edition.

The old perception that Beach Soccer players are retired 40+ year ex. soccer players is no longer valid, with most teams having young players with high skills. Where else can you watch games with an average of 10 goals per game in a span of 36 minutes (game is split in 3 thirds, 12 mins. each).

I highly recommend you watch it if you want to kill the time until football starts again, it is shown on ART Sports 3 and some matches also on Eurosports. Also, if you are lucky, you can watch girls in bikini during breaks between each third on Eurosports.

Euro 2008 is now done, so I can start writing again. I have had many ideas cross my mind during the usual times of napping, eating, before sleeping and during other activities, but I did not feel like writing, but now I am. This might be a long post, or it might not be, we shall just see how it goes, I do not feel like splitting the contents into different posts.

1. My Calculator

I have had the same calculator for the past 13 years. I got it from K-mart for less than $10 and it works just fine. It is a Casio Fx-250D type, I am not even sure they make them these days. Although some people prefer multiple complex calculators (heck I do not know if people know what a calculator is these days), I still prefer this simple calculator to do my complex calculations, for the rest I use my brains, like any old fashioned person does. I bet many of you young people do not even know about log-tables.

2. Edo Pride night

Edo Pride Sunday has been a regular event for me for the past 3 years or so. It started simple, then became a big event, then dwindled down to just a couple of people, and now we are starting again with a semi-new group. Sometimes it feels like Santana, the band, with the number of changes it has had in the past 40 years. (link). These days we are basically myself, The Stallion, his quirky cousin G, and a Latina replacement (the original Latina is smuggling Bangalis somewhere). Regular guests are usual old members such as Nibaq and the Gurls, Josie and the pussycaaaaaaaaaaaaaaats,pussycaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaats!

3. Atheist Among us

In the past few weeks I have read a few blogs of people, not only "U", who "claim" to be atheists, or are atheists. While the normal 20 something young adult is typically confused or brain-washed to either believe or not believe, typically an intelligent person understands the right path eventually, while idiots remain in their belief of non-belief. I once was confused, but I did not atheisize (not sure if this is a word) myself, I just understood my existence better and I am very comfortable with where I am now, a believer. For the atheists cows out-there who insist on being atheists, if you cannot believe there is a God of some sort, then you have cow-dung for brains, for the confused, I had a book once that would make you "logically" relate to "belief" but I cannot find the name in my old papers, but it was very important in shaping my understanding of existence and the essence of Man. "U" will find your way, I am sure. Just a final note on this topic, I saw Dogma (link) again yesterday, still funny.

4. Movies

I also have watched my fair share of movies over the past month. Kung Fu Panda was ok, I started to Watch the Eye (original version) but Damn its scary, 15 minutes and I stopped it. Reminds me of the time I wanted to watch that Japanese horror movie with the two sisters, I could not, kept forwarding and opening one eye. Wristcutters a love story (link) was a good independent movie I enjoyed. It is "A film set in a strange afterlife way station that has been reserved for people who have committed suicide", Purgatory anyone? And since I have my DSL receiver, I also saw Super Bad again, one of the good movies of the past couple of years in that genre, I cannot get enough of Mclovin.



5.Travel

I want to travel but prices are crazy, I cannot see myself pay a fils for those high prices, so I will stay here in the summer, baring any special event where I manage to convince myself to pay the extra 50 fils for my tickets.

6. Midgets

During Edo Sunday the subjects of midgets came up, well actually I brought it up. I had seen a blogger across and I said hi, she had her own Edo Pride Groupie thing, but its all good in the Edo-hood, then I ate, then I ate, then I remembered something when the replacement Latina in the group wanted to give a Sunday Church pass to one of our members who was craving Taco Bell Burri-ghetto, which started the following conversation

Me: So, do you have midgets at base?
Latina : Huh? No - Laughter around
Me: Yeah, why don't you have midgets in the base?
Latina: We just do not.
Me: Does that mean the U.S. military has something against midgets? that is discrimination.
Latina: No.
Me: Yes it is! its because they are suicidal huh!
Latina Confused look
Me: Yeah, midgets are suicidal. That is why they are not allowed in, isn't it?
Latina: I do not know.
Me: Come on! What is better than to sending those midgets to Iraq? I mean they can search for road side bombs, go in places where no one else can go, oh oh! How about an army of midgets? You have a special forces midget unit, led by that guy from Lords of the Rings, Gandalf
--Confused looks all around, though they have seen this side of me before --
Me: How about Black midgets? or Blue, smurfs?
Latina: I do not know!!

Then it moved to something else, but that issue still bugs me, Why don't they have midgets in the Army??

7. Whistling Purg

A post would not be complete without some whistling. Give me Some late night Don Cornelius.



This is the end of the post, I hope you enjoyed it and if you did not, screw you.

Purgatorian Post #1307

I could not get good sleep the past few days, I was restless even during the day, my mind was working over time, trying to figure out, ..... "who was the first person to come with the term Group of Death?"

From Wiki.

"The term was coined (in Spanish as el grupo de la muerte) by the Uruguay manager Omar Borrás at the 1986 FIFA World Cup to describe Group E, which included West Germany, Denmark, Scotland and Uruguay. This was the only group where all of its teams came from the traditionally strong regions of Europe and South America. The term is also used retroactively in historical contexts (i.e. for tournaments that precede 1986)."

Ah Omar, I should have known. Now I can sleep better.
