Obama Highscool
Boulder, Colorado.
The students of Boulder High School are pushing to rename their school, Barack Obama High School. I went to the Univeristy of Colorado in Boulder and I think of myself as a "Boulder Liberal" and I am also a big fan of Obama but this is a little too soon. I mean why don't we wait to see how this guy's presidency goes. We are barely into his first 100 days. This would be like getting a tattoo of your new girlfriend's name on your ass before she even lets you get to second base. Who knows you may marry that girl or she could become a whore and sleep with the whole lacrosse team?
You just never know what is going to happen. He might go down as one of the best presidents of all time, he could be average, he could be involved in a horrible conspiracy or he could sleep with the whole lacrosse team.
For My Fat Friends
I found two great websites for the foodies out there.
The first is a McRib locator. This site pinpoints where you can find the McDonald's that are currently offering the limited time product. Mmmmmm! Who doesn't like a pork sandwich with fake bones that are edible.
I have to admit I have never had one but I really want to try one. I have gone on the website a few times and called the McDonald's to see if they are offering them. I am almost at the point where I will drive over 50 miles to try this thing.

My Valentine's Day
I had a very romantic Valentines Day. I went by myself to the movies. I saw The Wrestler and then jumped theaters and saw Slumdog Millionaire. Who would have thought a blogger would not have a Valentines date? Crazy huh?
I don't feel bad about jumping theaters, especially when they are now charging $11.50 for a god damn movie. They are lucky enough too get any money out of me and that I don't just download pirated copies off the internet.
Actually, I am fine with going to the movies by myself. I don't have to plan ahead and see what my friends want to go see, and it is not like you can talk during the movie. It is nice to discuss the movie afterwards but everyone has already seen these two movies so I can talk about it with people later. Furthermore, going to the movies by yourself also allows you to come to your own opinion about a movie and not judge it on whether or not the people you went with enjoyed it.
Both movies were good.
The Wrestler, directed by Darren Aronofsky was one of those, "This is depressing, but I still enjoy it," type of movies. Similar to Aronfsky's Requiem for a Dream you have to be in the right mood to watch it.
I give it: 3.5 Brad Asses out of a Possible 5 Brad Asses
Slumdog Millionaire was a perfect movies to see right after The Wrestler. It was a perfect escape from reality after watching the story of a down and out wrestler.
I give it: 3.7983209383 Brad Asses. (I would have given it more but I was able to easily compare it to a better movie. I should not do this because it makes me not enjoy movies at much as I should, but it is the damn movies fault for being to similar. The movie that it is very comparable to is City of God. Both movies follow mainly two characters throughout their youths. One of the characters gets into some mischief but pretty much follows the straight and narrow, and the other character shoots people in the face. I know that people think that Slumdog is gritty and shows the harsh reality of a third world country, but to me, Slumdog is actually a Disney version of the City of God. All that being said, I still enjoyed Slumdog and recommend it.)

The second site that I found is thisiswhyyouarefat.com. This is basically porn for fat people. It is a website where users download photos of the most unhealthy yet delicious looking creations. Everything is covered in bacon or gravy. Half of the things make me vomit in my mouth and the other half make me drool.
Here are a few examples.
Happy Meal Pizza: 2 cheeseburgers, french fries and nuggets baked on top of a pizza
The In-N-Out 100x100: They always said you can make them as big as you want. Here is the proof.
Turbaconucken: A duck stuffed in a turkey and then wrapped in bacon.
