Happy Holidays

Thursday, December 23rd, 2004

It snowed today! Here’s a handy tip for all you folks here in Dallas who aren’t used to the snow: If your windshield gets iced over, use your TollTag as an ice scraper. Merry Christmas everybody. I’ll write again in 2005.

Why I Hate VH1: Part II

Monday, December 13th, 2004

Sorry no update for November, I guess I just needed a month to celebrate George Bush’s re-election. That W sticker on the back of my car really paid off. Anyway- this isn’t a political forum so I will change the topic. I am thinking about changing the name of this blog to something else. I should have done this a long time ago when VH1 started advertising “check out our blog bla bla bla.” If you are new to Josh’s World, I loathe VH1. The time I spend watching TV is always decreasing, but when I do happen to turn it on and I scroll down the menu of channels, I alway dry heave when I see the name of the show that is on. [sarcasm] Oooh, they said something is “Awesomely” something, that is so funny, that’s not even a real word. [/sarcasm] I need to free myself from this hatred!

Late Update

Wednesday, October 20th, 2004

Tada! an update. Sorry I haven’t updated in a while. I’m sure all zero loyal Josh’s World visitors have been quite upset. Well the wait is over… So let’s see, what’s been going on? Well, I had a fatal hard drive crash. That was pretty crappy. I didn’t lose anything too important. For some reason, my web-based email started labelling spam with ***SPAM*** in the subject line. I appreciate the warning, but why don’t you just delete it for me? I got some new floormats for the Maxima. I love ‘em. It doesn’t take much to make me happy. My thoughts are random. But enough about me, how have you been?

Homeward Bound

I am moving out of Addison Circle. I’m homeward bound to save a little dough. Just though you’d like to know.

Summertime

Tuesday, July 20th, 2004

I spent most of this month on vacation. I flew up to Chicago for a week to visit cousins, aunts, uncles, etc. Then I came home for a day and went to Destin, Florida with Keely and her family. I managed to watch all ten episodes of “I Love the 90’s.” That is pretty impressive considering my massive hatred for VH1.

Why I Hate VH1: Part I

Saturday, May 15th, 2004

For the most part, I like to keep things pretty upbeat and positive here in Josh’s World. But ya know, as I look at my last few entries, I might come off a little cynical. The truth is, I am content 90% of the time. Sometimes things just get to me. Take VH1 for example. I’m watching a show called “50 Most Awesomely Bad Songs Ever” and everything about the show gets on my nerves. Here’s the run down if you haven’t seen it, basically a bunch of small-time comedians and writers rag on videos for whatever reason VH1 considers bad. Many of the songs are great, it just might happen to be a one hit wonder or something. I’m pro-one-hit-wonder. It’s a very efficent way to enjoy more artists. Seriously VH1, how many unfunny one hit wonder jokes can you come up with. “Right Said Fred wasn’t sexy enough for another hit…” or “Gerardo wasn’t suave for another hit…” or “Billy Ray Cyrus won’t have another achy breaky hit.” Half of the shows on VH1 are like this. Anyway- this post has gone on for too long. The point is, VH1 has joined the ranks of it’s asinine brother MTV.

Worst Super Bowl Ever

Monday, February 2nd, 2004

Worst Super Bowl ever ( Simpson’s comic book shop guy voice). Anybody that knows me understands that I couldn’t care less about football, or any sport for that matter. Being an American though, it’s my duty to tune in… at least to enjoy the commercials. Well my friends, even the commercials were dumb- nothing creative or innovative. The only ad I liked was the anti-smoking commercial about the shards of glass ice pops. I got a kick out that… but all those other “truth” commercials are dumb. And don’t get me started on the half-time show. I don’t know about you guys, buy I can’t wait to get a copy of Rhythm Nation 1814. And I can tell this P Diddy guy is going to be big some day. Tonights Super Bowl half time show was brought to you by AOL and 1993.

Public Apology

Thursday, January 22nd, 2004

After some anger from a semi-loyal Josh’s World fan, I have decided to create a way for the JW readers to contact me (see bottom of page). Also, I would like to publicly apologize for not having my webcam set up (see May 31, 2002). You see, occasionally I get an idea for this site and I will write about it here. As time goes by, I’ll either lose interest or just change my mind. Since that entry was almost 2 years ago and there is still no webcam, it’s safe to assume that it ain’t gonna happen.
