TGIFFF! Thank God it's Finally Frikken Friday! Dayam this has been a long week, but I'm happy I'm here and the weekend is upon us.

Went to the doctor's yesterday to get a TB test for work. Doctor told me my BP was elevated. With all the stress in my life...DUH! The TB test was all right. Just that little bubble under the skin. I hope it's negative, but I Asian, so it's a toss up. We'll see.

My wife's blog has been a daily chronicle of her life and this is just about my rants. I'd better add some raves to this one, so I'm gonna do as she does and start a list. This is the top 100 things I'm liking right now.

1. Mi Familia
2. Lying in bed with the wife and son watching TV
3. WWE Monday and Thursday nights
4. CSI reruns on Friday night Spike TV
5. Spike TV - finally a channel for men!
6. Hearing my son laugh
7. Making my son laugh
8. My short-ass commute
9. Driving in my car listening to music
10. Driving Jake to sleep
11. A clean car full of gas
12. Tonkatsu
13. Vegas Baby!!!
14. Crisp NEW money

'Cause I said so!

My wife tells me that I should lighten up and be more upbeat and quit talking about idiots. To be quite honest, I don't bother them and they don't directly bother me, but here I am talking about them again so I should quit.

I will say that I am having a good day so far and if there is something that I

would like to talk about it would be bacon. Yes, BACON.

I am amazed at bacon's transformation properties. Who would have thought that cured pork fat can turn an ordinary turkey sandwich into a club sandwich. It livens up the average burger, turns a basic breakfast into a full meal, and is a perfect condiment on a salad...in bit form, of course.

Bacon provides that palatable crunch that we look for so much. It's that one bit of diet indiscretion that weight watchers and food fanatics can't seem to get enough of an still feel like their doing good.

Think about it for a little while. What would you rather have, a cheeseburger or a BACON cheeseburger? Would you rather have a simple steak or wrap that sucker up in bacon and call it FILET MIGNON? You catch my drift?

Bacon. It's just amazing.

I hate idiots. I just really hate idiots. Not the I'm just not having a good moment type of idiots. I'm talking about those people who have idiot lifetimes not idiot moments. Like idiot drivers. Aren't you supposed to pass a test to become a driver? Does the DMV all of a sudden just give out licences to anybody these days? And why is it that many of these drivers end up being Asian (I'm Asian myself, but dayam!!! At least I don't have many stupid moments in cars!)! I also happen to live in the Bay Area of California to make matters worse. Seems 80 to 90% of all Asians just don't know how to drive a frikken car. Going out the exit, just going whenever they want to on a four way stop, driving 10 in a 25 zone or driving 95 on a 70 zone on the freeway...and then you have the audacity to get mad when YOU cut ME off? Oh, and forget about those hurry up and wait fools! You know...speed to the next light only to brake because you've hit a red, meanwhile I get there at my own pace and we leave the light together. That guy! And why is it that all of a sudden decorum leaves once these idiots get into a car? All of a sudden it's a booger free for all! Not the quickie edge of the nose one, but that one buried between the tongue and brain type of booger hunt. Why do these people torment me like this? No, no, no...I don't have road rage. I don't chase after people or let my temper get the best of me...I just notice a lot of what people do and I find it so frustrating that they don't notice it. Idiots, I tell you...every last one of them! The cops should cite you at the mere instance of idiocy. I say, you get three chances a year. You drive like an idiot more than that, they suspend your license for 5 years and during those 5 years, you've got to go to night school to learn how not to drive like an idiot. I'm right, right? Yeah, I am...idiot! Why?
