Joel’s Hospital Diaries: Chapter 1

1. A tiny bit of backstory for those not in the know.  I’ve spent a shitload of time in the hospital over the past couple plus years.  Probably 5 or more months of real time.  Basically I have a lot of problems symptomatic of Diabetes without actually having Diabetes.  I’ve had six(SIX!) total amputations on…

Hey, guys.  It’s been a while.  How are you?  You look great.   Anyone who knows me even a little bit knows that I LOVE the Shield.  Because I’ve gotten them to watch it or am still currently nagging them to watch it.  It’s one of my top 3 TV shows of all time.  It…

1/18-The Spoils Of Babylon “Kicking The Habit”-IFC -This show is so fucking bizarre, you guys.  It’s a spoof of all those 70s and 80s mini series events like The Thorn Birds and it is hysterical.  Will Ferrell plays Babylon scribe Eric Jonrosh and he narrates us through this ludicrous love story starring Tobey Maguire, Kristen…

Switch Hitter-Craig Ferguson

I’m a bit of a talk show junkie.  Chances are, I’m actually watching someone promote their new show than the show itself.  Not many people could pull off what Ferguson does on a nightly basis.  He doesn’t have emmy award nominated teams of writers.  He seemingly wings it every night, flying without a net.  And…

1/06-Pardon The Interruption-ESPN -One of about three sports news shows I can stand anymore.  I enjoy the banter between these cantankerous old coots. -Tony’s not buying the Colin Kaepernick kool-aid, because there’s a good chance they’d have to go through Seattle, where the Niners have been getting shit kicked lately. -Tony puts the Bengals on…
