While I was totally in love with the concept of My Name is Earl before I heard about it (as well as with the title), I've not been overwhelmed so far.  I like the Crabman and Earl's ex-wife, and find it impossible to not have a man-crush on Jason Lee (I would watch him read a phone book, just to see the eyebrow expressions, especially with his awesome porn mustache), but still the show leaves me wanting more.  It is certainly no Arrested Development (The best comedy.  Ever.)

Nevertheless, I do watch it every week in HD, and was glad to see this picture.

Calm down, it's basically the same as the last one.

You affable and occasionally absentee Web dude is now the afternoon personality for Thunder 106.9.  I am on from 2 to 7 every afternoon, playing music (some country, some not), taking requests, doing wacky phone calls, and working on three station websites.  Good times. 

I first read the news on Justjared.com and part of me thought it couldn't be true.  Then I scuried on over to Mtv.co.uk and read it again.  Everyone's favorite Khazakstani TV journalist Borat is this year's MTV Europe Music Awards host. 

Borat did have one request:

Borat: If I host here, can I host in a room with a light?
MTV Europe: Yeah. Everyone gets to host in a room with a light.
Borat: Great success!!!!

My computer works now.  I had to get a new motherboard, but it's all good now.  I've RMA'd (returned) the board (or will tomorrow).  So I guess I'm up a motherboard I don't need.   It sucked too, because I was only in the middle of three web projects.  Hopefully, I'll be able to knock two fo them out of the way by this weekend.  Because come Sunday, I will be awash in the orgy of NFL Sunday Ticket. 

In the meantime, I will just be repeating the video of Mike Myers doing a triple take at Kanye West when he flips out during the Hurricane Katrina.  Watching Kanye go nuts is cool, but you have to watch the video while staring at Mike Myers.  It shoud be filed in the dictionary under awkward.

 It's going to be okay, Mike.

So, Tuesday night, both my computer and internet connection go down simultaneously.  Good times.  A 9 month old motherboard flat our refuses to boot.  So that should be good.

Anyway, Amber and I are off for a four-day weekend of whitewater rafting in the mountians of West Virginia.  There will camping and fire and hillbillies.  Of potential interest is that I will be releasing another website next week some time, which will be a part of the larger Chris Boylan plan to take over the world.  It will be a small part but an important part nonetheless.  Not as big as the one set for end of the year, however.

My ears are still ringing from Green Day last night.  Jimmy Eat World opened and I remembered why I like them.  Catchy, poppy alt rock.
