Well, this weekend was ok. I went out on Friday on the prowl. I did the ole "wingman" strategy with a friend of mine. We were able to zero in on a couple of young phillies. But, alas, after 5 minutes they always ended up going to the bathroom and never coming back. I think I'll call the ladies bathroom at Carson's the Bermuda Triangle. On Sat I gave blood and setup my home recording studio. About giving blood, I have a disease I call Yesitis. It is an inflammation of saying "Yes". I get a call from someone I say "yes".  I've had this disease ever since I came to Dallas and was actually making money. It all started with a call to Time Life and ordering a Gold and Platinum Album. Then they got my number and called me for "Sounds of the 80s". I said "yes" and 18 months later I got around to canceling. I think I still have some albums in the wrapper. Then there was the dating service that got me 0 dates for $1800. I said yes to that and in the end took em to court and won, but they never paid me anyways.  Then there was the first gym member ship for 18 months at $40 a month.  I said yes to an initial appointment and got suckered. Right now I am paying a gym $30 a month and I haven't gone since January. I am also paying monthly for a computer game that I never play. On the bright side, I say yes to blood donations and charities and church events. They keep on calling me though. You say yes "once" and you're on their list. The do not call list doesn't work if you say yes. Over time I think I have become a little more discerning since the days of the dating service. Yesitis is not fatal, but I must watch out for it. Just don't call me up and ask for something, I might say yes, but I mean no. Oh yeah, tonight they're replacing a pipe connected to my heater that is not regulation and in the coming weeks they'll come to exterminate my pests(another contract) and mow my yard(contract). How do I get Noitis?

Thought of the Day

 "Is that all you say? Yes?"

"No"

"So you say Yes and No?"

"Yes"

"Ah you must be a bit"

"Yes. Yes. Yes."
