irony at its best

a few days ago i had an epiphany.

i turned down 3 job offers with 3 very reputable consulting firms before i took my job here at BP. one firm wanted me to work in DC which i had no intrest in. another wanted me to wear a suit everyday, not something i was willing to do. the third needed a Cognos person, something i was moving away from.

as i sit here in my suit, in DC, writing a business case to bring Cognos into my project i have to laugh. and by laugh i mean whimper quietly...

choreography will get you every time.

Jr. sent his DUI video to me. he is the one in the cowboy hat.

what can i say?

sitting here trying to think up a story that is even halfway interesting to post about, and i am stumped. so i am going to babble a bit.

i have recently bought a house in Ashburn. the Broadlands to be more specific. the place is awesome and i get to move in on Dec. 7th. there will be a signup sheet for people that are interested in helping on Dec. 11th.

had a great thanksgiving full of the 3 F's: family, friends, and furry animals. all of the family and friends are doing well, and unfortunatly so are the furry animals. i hunted all weekend and nothing! i am facing the realization that i suck. i may need counciling.

the free ipod thing is going well, but i still need a few more. i went to cancel my Rhapsody account today and they gave me another 14 days free, and i can continue for $4.95 after that. so that is cool.

bought some livingroom furniture on sunday from Belfort in Dulles. that place is freeking huge. but got a great deal.

trying to figure out which company i want to get my tv from. do i do Direct TV with TiVo? adelphia digital cable? Dish Network? if i want internet access, it looks like i will have to go through adelphia unless you all know of any other options for broadband.

need to get a new job since next week i will be commuting from Ashburn to DC. there is 3 hours of my life i will never get back. BP may set me up in a satelite office, but i am STILL WAITING FROM OTHER PLACES! i have to let them know soon what i am going to do. we will see.

i spend about 10 minutes a day cleaning the blog from penis enlargement and texas holdem comments. that sucks. is there a way to turn comments off after a certain number of days?

well that is 5 minutes in the mind of Ice Cold. hope you enjoy!

oh yeah - in there somewhere is work that i am supposed to be doing...

iPod

since i do everything hollywood cole does, i am attempting the free iPod scam, i mean deal.

to help out, go here and sign up for one offer. i suggest the rhapsody 14 day trial because you can cancel it and still recieve the credit with no charge. i currently have this and i think i am going to keep it. it is only $9/mo. or something. pretty nice for work.

i just signed up to help ol hollywood, someone sign up to help ice cold. i only need two more!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

new baby jesus

old dirt dog, odb

whoever you know him by, old dirty bastard died in saturday from unknown causes. if i was a betting man i would say he died of love while donating money to the local charities as he was helping feed the hungry at the same time mentoring a troubled youth all the while being snuggled by puppies...

he just seemed like that kind of gansta.

son of a...

bitch!

Ice Cold is getting spammed. unless i have friends named "fleshlight" that likes to play "texas holdem".

i had about 20 new comments posted 11/13/2004 and 10 new ones on 11/14/2004. is nothing sacred?

November 10, 2004

brrrr....

is it cold in here or is it the new look and feel of "Ice Cold"???

let me know what you think. suggestions always welcome, however if you piss me off, i am going to a hot pink background with lime green wording. maybe a tune in the background. and some moving images... that's hot.

go W'Town

check out the new video from Ki:Theory. went to high school with some of these guys and since then they have been working to kick up their band. the footage is from their recent tour in the South Pacific.

check out Ghost.

i may be bias, but it is pretty good.

where in the world

where in the world is Ice Cold going?

it has come to my attention that i posess the power to transfer within BP to wherever i want. this comes from a discussion i had with the BP resource manager this morning. i expressed my concern with leaving DC and he opened a whole new light.

what i need from you are suggestions. anywhere you have thought about going yourselves, somewhere fun, close to water of some sort, anything...

the soapbox is yours. be heard.

x-mas

this is why i have been waiting to get an iPod.

if anyone asks what i want for x-mas, this + iPod = awesome

a day in the ghetto

it all starts about 8am when i park my car. i get lucky and find a spot infront of one of the 12 clubs in the area, Club 55! View image

after a bullet dodging sprint down the infamous ally (View image), and hurdeling the hypodermics (View image), i am home free to the office building.

take a quick look back to cover my 20 and make sure i have not stirred up any crackheads, and see two gay nightclubs. the folks at PPC will recognize WET, which is behind the tree. View image

and i am finally in the sanctity of the M Street office. this is the glorious view from my office window.

View image #1
View image #2

*note the vacant lot where people dance on Fridays

and as an added bonus, now that the time has changed, i get to do it all in the dark now!!! how freeking awesome is that?

GREAT BALLS OF FIRE!

tards killed the radio star

let me prefice...

all of these videos are taken from a digital camera from inside our house. we are pussies sometimes and did not want them to see us filming them. partly because we do not want them to stop and partly because we are scared of a raging tard. these are older videos meaning we have had them for awhile. each video i have chosen to post here shows some tard activity, some you can see, some you can hear, some you can see and hear.

Video #1 - tard on the phone. i feel this one is humorous because of chips comentary. they are always on the phone. even more than they are screaming at each other they are on the phone walking in circles. with this clip you get to see a tard in his natural habitat.

Video #2 and Video #3 are from the same night. this is the night they almost lit the house on fire. again the footage is not great, but you can get the gist.

favorite quote from Vid #2 "you better put that out before you catch the house on fire. the hotdogs are done"

Video #4 (big file, loads slow) - the fight. in the white is the mom, blue the drunk father figure, and in the black is a tard. see if you can see the brick bieng thrown. you may want to turn the vlume up for this one. can you understand them? we can! we now speak fluent tard.

thanks pops for the video and our friends at dairytwist.org for hosting.

we have video

we have exclusive video of Tards in action scrubbed up from pops computer last night. stay tuned.

if anyone knows the best way to put a .mov file up here, please let me know. i am having issues...

yeah drunk

talk to me goose

holloween 04' did not let me down this year. although i was not crawling into the womens bathroom in a mini skirt and wig, knocking people out of the way, and vomiting perfusely (don't laugh, that actually happened in 02'), it was still a blast.

we were back in DC at Politikis on the hill. Steph babes was a freekishly sexy cruella deville, pops was don king (yeah a 7 foot tall white don king), and Jr. and I went as Maverick and Goose. The only regret i have is that no one lost that lovin' feelin like we had planned.

some honerable mentions:
an umpaloompa
janet jackson and justin timberlake (with exposed tittie)
osama
that old man from the 6 flags comercial
rick james bitch!

ewwww coke

you pay $1 from the soda machine for a mmmmmmm coke and get this shit!

i hate vanilla coke and despise diet coke. i bet this is going to taste GREAT!

and i did not get to poke a crack head with an umbrella either!
