So I’m sitting here at 2:19 in the morning, staring at a blank blog entry page, trying to figure out what could POSSIBLY be so entertaining to anyone who reads this to write. Suddenly, it dawns on me. “Just write Mike!” So, I start. I start writing a load of nonsense that makes absolutely no sense. In fact, that’s what I’m doing right now, as you read each word and absorb it into your psyche. You’re currently a victim of my mindless rambling.
So mindless in fact, that suddenly, I have the ingenious idea to interview myself. Me. Asking questions, to

So I went to a dinner the other night for a friend of mine, and seeing as my car is (still) out of commission, I used public transportation. Hooray for bus and trains! I’m pretty much a fan of public transportation for a few different reasons. Sometimes it’s nice to just hang out and get driven around, listening to music or reading, or even writing as I go. And the other reason is because I LOVE to people watch. And there’s no where you can see more interesting

I officially hate writers block. I hate it so much so that I decided that it deserved it’s own post. I’m going to write as much as I possibly can about how much I loathe not being able to come up with anything creative to write. I’ve been staring at a blank screen all-weekend, and yet anytime I try to write anything, it just comes out looking repetitive, redundant, and the same.
SEE?!
My least favorite advice for how to overcome writers block?
“Just write.”
….WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK I’M TRYING TO DO?! I suppose I’m a bit of a

 Getting complimented always feels good. I mean, seriously, who doesn’t like having someone tell them they rule, or are pretty (yes, even men like to be called pretty even though none will ever admit it) or anything of that sort. But being compared to an all-star, or famous influential person…well. You’ve essentially just been given the Nobel Peace Prize of compliments.
For example:
Phil Villarreal: Are you a football fan?
Mikey: Yep. Eagles fan.
Phil Villarreal: Remember Bo Jackson?
Mikey: Yea.
Phil Villarreal: That’s what you’re doing. You are on one of Bo’s incredible runs.
Mikey: Hahaha. Let’s hope I can ride this shit as hard

Max Hall released the following statement
“I want to take the opportunity to clarify and apologize for a few of my remarks after the game yesterday.
Last year at RES my family was spit on, had beer dumped on them, and were physically assaulted on several occasions. They had to endure extremely vile comments personally attacking my wife, my mother, other family members, and our religion. They had to be escorted to their car by local police.
As a result of what happened to my family last year this rivalry became personal, and in the heat of the moment yesterday I made comments

This goes out to my good friend Dani. My initial reaction to this suggestion was “WTF?!” And then, like I do, I started rolling it around in my head, and what I could blog started unraveling before me like the Sistine Chapel did for Michelangelo.
To quote the request:
“The paradigm of single v. two-ply toilet paper and how that relates to eco-friendly v. narcissistic behavior.”
As you can see, my initial “WTF” reaction was warranted. But, let’s break this down.
Johnny goes to the store because he’s out of toilet paper. Upon arriving in the designated isle, he’s faced with a

Ok, so I hate these lists usually, but I really did laugh at these. So, for your viewing enjoyment.
Lol.
“63 true things”
1. More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can think about is that I can’t wait for them to finish so that I can tell my own story that’s not only better, but also more directly involves me.
2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you’re wrong.
3. I don’t understand the purpose of the line, “I don’t need to drink to have fun.” Great, no one does. But why

Holy Hell!
Ok. Now there’s two things about this article that will stand out to you if you pay attention. But, seeing as most of you live in a “twitter” world where everything is in 140 letter tidbits, I’ll break it down for you.
1.) 19 pound baby to an indian woman?! HOLY JEEZ!
2.) The notion that if you’re pregnant, you can have sex with no protection because “I can’t get pregnant” has just been blown to pieces.
Thanks a lot lady. You’ve just ruined men’s lives forever.
Something new I’m going to attempt to do. Essentially before I leave work every day, or before 5 P.M. (MST) I’ll post a link, video, clip, or even just random quote from a person, or just me to end your day.
Sound fun?
Inaugural tidbit:
Flavored Tobacco Ban
Obama bans flavored cigarettes, cigars, wraps, shisha, etc.
How does this make you feel???
