Oh Lucky Pee!

What's up with men and their defensive pee? (I don't think I've talked about this, I totally blog searched it and didn't see it. Um. anyway) I saw a while ago on Man V. Wild Bear peeing in a circle around where he was going to sleep to protect himself from jackals. Won't work with women. Bastards. Yet another strike against women.

I remember what I was going to say yesterday. How could I forget it was about the Packers loss. Well it's easy for me to forget since I really don't care too much about the Packers. Anyway, through the whole game whenever they showed Eli Manning, which was all the time since the Packers were barely on offense, I thought how strange enough I sort of like the name Eli. It's short for something, what I don't really know but it falls into the category of what I like to call strange normal names. Names that are unique yet wouldn't lead to an ass whoopin' on the playground like some names. (I'm looking at you Apple and Coco. And moon unit or whatever it is. Poor kids) With Eli it's a name that can be paired with most last names which is always good. It's short, its sweet. When you spell it the letters sound like the name. E-L-I. Get it? Good. Though my only problem with it is if I were to name a child Eli I would have issues with writing it. I'm not a fan of capital E's, they don't make good for continuing to the next letter in one swoop. At least not with an l, since I'm not a fan of cursive L's. Yes alright. Say it. I'm weird, I know. But that's how I role. When I sign Katelin I don't cursive my l and sometimes I miss the cross on the t and well my signature is messed up. (and yes I wrote Eli a few times. Leave me alone!)

Wow was that weird.

So good news, finally have my bible back in my life. And by bible I mean the Associated Press Stylebook. Went a semester with out using it and now here he is, back by my side. My best friend, so they tell me. Presidents are sworn in on a bible and doctors say the Hippocratic Oath. Journalists in this country should swear to the editors of AP with their writing hand on the stylebook. I learn all sorts of crazy stuff from this book! Like I was flipping through it to check a reference and saw Saturday night special and it said "see weapons" So I went to weapons and you know what a Saturday night special is? "The popular name for the type of cheap pistol used for impulsive crimes." Who woulda known? Not I. Now I do. Thank you AP! One change from the 2006 to the 2007 model is how the AP now handles phone numbers. mmhm. Check it out, there shouldn't be any parenthesis around area codes. Though the AP did mess up and it is in the book both ways I guess. So I guess it's a coin flip.

Alright. Should do some stuff before my first and only class of the day at 345. hehe.
Ta.

I can't believe I'm typing this.

"What's up with men and their defensive pee?"

I don't know, but I have a theory.
(About bathrooms) They miss on purpose, so they can keep women out.
