Its time for another post. So, shall I talk about Obama’s win in Iowa and then surprising defeat in New Hampshire? Shall I talk about how Tom Cruise is believed to be the second most powerful person in the Church of Scientology and the rumor that he had his wife Katie Holmes impregnated with the late L. Ron Hubbard’s (founder of scientology) sperm? Shall I talk about how insanely expensive wedding photographers are and how we may have found the needle in the haystack? Lets just see where my mind wanders…

Ninja Warrior. If you have never seen it, you have to check it out. It comes on G4 (a gaming network… I *heart* FiOS) and is so ridiculous its great. Its a Japanese (i think) pseudo-game show.. similar to American Gladiators. Its running, jumping, climbing, and best of all, people falling in a huge mud puddle. It is dubbed into English, and while I am not completely convinced it is the actual dialogue, it is still pretty entertaining. It makes me want to go to Japan just to compete. I could be a ninja warrior, right?

American Gladiators… its back, and almost as good as I remember. It hasn’t tarnished my memory of it, so thats good. And now that I am old enough to compete… it made me seriously think about it for a minute. But I know deep down I would be trying to substitute it for Ninja Warrior… and thats just not fair to either show. Now I said “almost” as good as I remember…  thats because Hulk Hogan’s blond weave somewhat detracts from the appeal of the show. Its kinda difficult to take him seriously now when he has fluorescent strands of nylon hanging from his bandanna. Sorry Hulk, but my memory of you has been tarnished. I am a Hulkamaniac no more.

Hmm… so if the New Hampshire really is a foreshadowing of the Presidential race, and Clinton gets the Democratic nomination, could Obama run as her running mate? It would make history. First female president… first black person in the White House. Is America ready for that yet? While I would like to think the masses are open minded enough to look past race and gender and select the best candidates for the job, I am somewhat skeptical. Time will tell. Well, I guess its time for me to really start looking at ALL of the candidates so I can make an informed decision when the time comes.

One last thing. Salad Spritzers? Really? So they want us to spray on salad dressing now? “Only one calorie per spray.” Do you know how many sprays it will take to properly coat a salad? Well, at least you will know exactly how many calories it is… “23, 24, 25, …” How about practicing some self control and using less salad dressing. Or how about trying that thing… um… exercise. Then you can spray until your hearts content… or your salad is drowning in its own dressing, whichever comes first. Geez… what’s next? diet butter?
