Top 50 of 2000

The year - 2000. The top search? Britney Spears. Follwed by Dragonball, Pokemon, WWF and 'N Sync. Amazing. Dragonball? Just looking through the list is quite astonishing. Here are some random thoughts as I peer through the list.

#8 - Naspter. Remember the days of Naspster? Every MP3 came from Napster or LimeWire. Napster was the cool thing to use back in 2000, and the web searches proved this.

#16 - Christmas. Who the hell searches for Christmas? And what for? It jumped up 13 spots from last year, too.

#18 - Anna Kournikova. Oh where have you gone, Anna? Where? Please come back and try to win at least one tournament. Do it for you. And wear a short skirt for us.

#26 - Gundamn Wing. Huh?

#47-49 - Tupac, Limp Bizkit, DMX. Top notch, top quality artists start to round out the top 50.

Interestingly enough, Big Brother, is the only reality TV show listed. Or is it meant to be, "Big Brother is watching?" No clue. I go with reality TV show.

#50 search of the week is Elf Bowling. Elf Bowling. These searches get me every time. They're interesting enough to look through, laugh, and never go to again. But I bet... I'd put money on it...someone is going to Google, "Elf Bowling" when you're done reading this... Hey, wait, don't go!

And, You're Back on Live!

Well, it's been a long time since I left you, left you...

I had some work related issues to attend to, but I think I'm back. For the long run? Who knows. I spent a little time changing the layout and will continue to tweak it as the days go on. However, it is October 1, well, now Oct 2, and that means it is almost time for...

Hockey season. Oh yeah. I cannot wait. October 2nd the Eagles play on MNF, then Oct 3 is a rest day before the season kicks off on Oct 4. Three games. I'll be parked in front of the TV from 7-12ish. Good thing I have to travel most of the day on the 5th, because when the clock hits 7:30, the Center Ice Package will have its cherry popped.

Eagles/Packers - Monday night.
NHL opening night - Wednesday night.
Penguins/Flyers - Thursday night.
Penguins/Red Wings - Saturday night.
Eagles/Cowboys - Sunday.

Are you for real, schedule makers? Thank you.

Now, for my usual material...

I joined a new gym recently. I'm new to the area, so I didn't know what I was going to walk into. However, I gained a sense of the crowd after a few sessions. Nothing too abnormal, but hey, it's not what I left. Everything was fantastic, until today. Sunday, late AM. Kind of crowded, but not overly congested. I am working out, and then I hear a grunt. A scream. A workout grunt/scream. Of course you want to glance. If not to see how much they are lifting, but to see how gay the guy looks grunting in front of 40+ people. Notice how I said, 'guy.' Yeah, I stand corrected, it was a female. She was leg curling an obscene about of weight - I don't think I have lifted as much weight in my lifetime combined. She had a 2002 Barry Bonds in one calf. So I walked away. Threw up. Then resumed my workout.
