Today's the Big Game, the Super Bowl I guess.

Turns out that it's the Giants v. the Patriots this year. I don't imagine I'll be watching it.

As a foreign national of unremarkable stature, I can't say I feel any particular natural affinity to either team in tonight's contest.

So instead I've been gathering up all my assorted W-2 forms and things. Yes, once again, it's Tax Time, baby! That means, of course, it's time to take a cold hard look at the old financial data! I love to do that so much that sometimes I look at dollar bills just to memorize their serial numbers! That's the kind of hard-core financial dude I am, and you never know, that kind of info might come in handy someday. Well anyway, this year I can't honestly say I much like what I'm seeing. See now I was looking at my mutual funds here. They got all kinds of charts and stuff, and obviously I'm all in favour of shit like that, but the thing is, they got some stupid graph bragging about how well they're doing against - get this - something called the "Standard and Poor 500"! Well I should certainly hope they can beat it, I mean, come on now! Standard? Poor?

Now, I'll admit I'm no Donald Trump here but on the other hand it's not like I'm a complete retard either! Who the hell cares about this standard and poor crap anyhow? I tell you what, I ain't bustin' my ass like this just to wind up "standard and poor"! "First-class and Wealthy" all the way for me, baby! And five hundred? Uh-uh, no way, Jose, a cool million, that's where I'm headed!

Now I know its only about noon or so now, and I'd hate to think that my day has already peaked in terms of excitement, but I should mention that I mopped the floors today! Plus, I DID THE DISHES!
