I think Brett Favre is going to make his decision this month.

Pro Football Talk thinks he is going to make his decision this week. This is based on the recent statement that barring a major setback, Favre will attend the Vikings training camp. Speculations flew, especially as Brad Childress was unavailable for comment, being on a fishing trip with Andy Reid in Alaska. But now, he’s back. And tickets go on sale July 9. Since the Vikings had some ticket sales troubles last year, it would definitely boost sales to be able to announce that Brett Favre has decided to play for them.

The only question, if he does, is what would happen to their QB situation.

It seems highly unlikely that the Vikes are going to keep both Rosenfels and Jackson. It also seems unlikely that they’ll get rid of John David Booty, their hope for the future, especially given how old Favre is. I’d say they should get rid of Tarvaris Jackson. The only question about Booty should be what number he’s going to get; he wears the sacred number 4 currently. He could always have #7 (currently held by Jackson). He wore #10 in college, but it is retired by the Vikings for Fran Tarkenton.

So I am well aware that the old Free After 5 website no longer works. This might explain why I HAVE HAD THE SIDE LINK UPDATED FOR THREE MONTHS, ASSHATS.

Sorry, that part was just for the people who have been e-mailing me about FA5. John Dandrea’s new site is right here. It’s much better than the old one, in my opinion.

So the Antarctican government was contacted the other day from the Republic of Aspindora. The highest ranking members of the imperial regime were asked a simple question: war or peace?

So far, the answer seems to be overwhelmingly WAR. The final decision will be released next Wednesday on the Imperial website.

In other news, I’m getting tired of people saying how hawt Megan Fox is. Really guys? I saw the first Transformers move and she had a nice face, especially the eyes, but not really all that hot. I gave her a 7.

Last night, I saw the second movie. You could tell they were flaunting her perceived “hotness” to the max. They came close to trying too hard, putting her in tight pants (or none at all). Her lips are almost sickeningly large.

Okay not quite that bad. But they did not make me want to jump all over her, pin her to a wall and rail her. Not at all. So although she improved to an 8 after Transformers 2, she’s still not all that hawt, and not as hot as my girlfriend.

So the Dave Matthews Band has a new album out.

Let’s just say it’s amazing. Not only does it keep with that jazzy-fusion sound DMB is famous for, it’s possibly the best album to have on while doing drugs since Jupiter One. (Not that I’d know.) Here you can listen to this awesome album.

In other news, I’m tired of people pointing out “MILF’s” to me, whether it be during beach week, or at work. To me, there is no such thing as a Mother I’d Like to Fuck because there is nobody’s mother that I want to do.

Okay I take that back. But actual MILF’s are extremely few and far between. I have yet to see one in person, although I must admit to spotting two or three on the Internets.

Also, my family “reunion” was exciting for about two hours, then became predictably boring. I fell asleep. At least I had a good birthday. Thanks you Kait.

The Pittsburgh Penguins have won the Stanley Cup!

The one thing that’s annoying is that people who don’t know me think I’m just jumping on the winners’ bandwagon. An old man (who was apparently Arundel’s old football coach before Coach Mark) came in to Chick-fil-A wearing a Pens hat and a Steelers shirt. I told him I liked them, and he told me I couldn’t unless I was from Pittsburgh. Well of course I told him I was; I knew he thought I had just decided to like the Penguins and Steelers because they’re the best, despite the fact that I’ve liked them for years. But oh well. Once I move to Pittsburgh people will stop hassling me.

More proof I’m not a fair-weather fan: I’m also a fan of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Tonight, they lost 7-3 to a pretty good team, the Colorado Rockies. If they have a losing season this year, they will set a MLB record for most consecutive losing seasons. Right now they’re a little in the red, at .463.

But don’t worry, Buccos! We aren’t the worst team in the league yet…

Houston Astros - .462

Baltimore Orioles - .448

San Diego Padres - .446

Kansas City Royals - .439

Arizona Diamondbacks - .433
*Kait bought me tickets to see these guys play the Pirates :)

Oakland A’s - .431

Cleveland Indians - .420

And finally the hilarious:

Washington Nationals - .292

It’s teams like the Nats that give me hope for the Pirates.

So I decided to jump on the Joomla content management bandwagon today and try to start implementing it into the Vladimir Publishing website.

It’s difficult. Trying to put all the crap from the old site onto a management system where there’s already a bunch of sample articles I don’t know how to use is rather challenging.

Also, I’m running into the unexpected problem of a lack of material! A lack of material? I have thousands of pages worth of publications and yet I have no material? Well I’m trying to separate the earlier silly stuff onto another site, which is part of the VPC site but not the main interface, so it’s harder to find unless you’re looking for it. But that just leaves Cochran’s poems, The Twisted Love, Card’s haiku, and two works of mine from 2007.

And I thought Drupal was difficult. *huff*

Haha also notice I had to add a new category for this post. I’ve been able to be a nerd these past few days due to my recovery. Also, I was supposed to take Cochran to the MVA but he couldn’t find his papers so he gave up. He’s 20 years old and still doesn’t have his learner’s permit. WTF.

Yesterday morning I finally got my wisdom teeth out! Yay.

When I woke up I shook all the nurses’ hands. Obviously, I was on drugs.

My mouth bled all day.

I want hot wings. :(

Had a great day today. Although it didn’t really start till 7:30pm. For the first time I may have felt like I have friends. Andrew, Bryan, and Rob are some of the most awesome guys I know. Steve’s still cool after a couple years of not seeing me (although the lack thereof has apparently caused him to put on about 10 pounds). And his brother Mike is apparently friends with Bryan’s brother Jason. And they’re both apparently friends with big Kenny. Big Kenny, the guy I used to be jealous of because he hung out with Leah and Kirsten and all the volleyball girls and I couldn’t.

Well now I’m apparently friends with Kenny. Didn’t see that coming. But I won’t complain.

So, in the course of studying for my exams, I designed a flag for Svalbard. Since it’s close to the North Pole, I tried to go for the “polar look.” Check it out, see what you think?
