I Thought The Power Went Out

I'm with Jared right now. He closed his eyes. I snapped my fingers in front of him and told him to wake up. He responded with, " I thought the power went out."

White Trash

Last night Jared was talking about wanting to go to Suffolk Downs today, a horse racing track out side of Boston. He asked about the general demographic of the people who usually attended the races. Murph told him that it was in East Boston so it would probably be white trash. Jared,being the genious that he is, said, "So, Mexicans?"

Now What?

Today is "Download Day" for Firefox 3. Doing my part, I told a few of my friends to go download it. Jared, being the genius he is, gives me this response:


I don't think anymore needs to be said.

New Remote or Old?

My dad's showing off his new LCD tv to me. During it, I notice the remote control he's using looks shinier. So I ask him, "Is that remote new or old?" He said it was the same remote that we've had. I told him that I was asking because he looked shinier. He responded by telling me that it's because it's a new remote. Wasn't that what I asked? Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that new and old aren't synonyms.

No Perfect Scores Yet

I was at trivia this evening. The scoring system works like this: If you get a question right, you get points. If you don't get a question right, you don't get points. Two questions into the night, Trivia-guy Fred said, "No one has a perfect score so far..." Thanks, Fred! Maybe if I work really hard on the next two questions, I can work my way out of this whole and get up to a perfect score!

Score As Much As Possible

More stupid hockey announcers. I was watching the Detroit/Pittsburgh game tonight. It went into overtime. During the start of the third overtime, the announcers for CBC said, "It would be a good idea for both teams to score as much as they can early in the period."


Um...seriously? Sudden-death overtime? If someone needs more explanation, you're a moron.
