If it wasn't for bad luck, I would have no luck at all

Well, what a couple of days. I was going to update yesterday but the deadjournal server was down.

I played Champions Sat. night and had a great time as usual.

And then Sunday came about. I woke up and went to Church. Then went to Costco to get pizza for that nights WWE PPV. I went to my friend James house, picked him up and went to the Gibraltar Trade Center for the Computer Show. We got there, and the Computer Show had been moved, there was a sports card show that weekend. So we went to pickup my friend Jon Wan Balon. And on the way we got some McDonalds. The screwed up my order, the fries sucked, and they somehow even managed to make the soda taste bad. We picked up Jon Wan Balon, started back to James' house and got about three miles and ALL THREE fan belts on my car broke. I never did get to see the PPV, which everyone says was one of the best in WWE recent history, and found out my Grandfather had his second stroke in under a week.

Woke up early Monday morning and make arrangement to have my car towed to a Garage. Got my car fixed and when my Dad drove me to pick it up the Garage said that my Heater Tube is rusted out and because to the pressure build up from my car overheating when the belts broke it now had a leak. They said they could fix it for $261.70. My Dad said Drive it home and I can fix it, and then took of to do his running around. On my way home, of course my car overheated and I could not make it home.

We fixed it today.

RAW was five fingers yesterday. I actually did not even mind Steph yesterday. As long as she is not hogging time from the real stars she is ok.

According to 1wrestling Eric Bischoff is only "talent". I find that incredibly hard to belive. If he doesn't have anything creative to do, it will be a waste.

I did not do much to day. I did get my oil changed. I usually do it myself but my dad told me about Basha Car Wash & Quick Lube at 36638 Groesbeck. It is just south of 16 mile. For 23 bucks they change oil, lube chassis, fill fluids, check your tire pressure, vacuum your interior, lube you door hinges, and wash your car. WOW. What a deal.

It is time once again to format my hard drive and reinstall windows. I do this every six mounth. I hate it.

Back in Black

Well, there was a request for more than just movie and wrestling content on this web log, and I will endeavor to do this in the future but this post will be mostly wrestling.

I read Vince Russo's interview on 1wrestling and you can too by clicking here. If you even know the definition of the word wrestling you should read it.

I can not wait to see NWA: TNA this week. I hope I don't mess up again.

That brings me to WWE RAW. Vince McMahon came out and announced the end of the nWo and said Raw and SmackDown would have new General Managers. Later of we found out that Raw's General manager was none other than Eric Bishoff.

As I said before I was more of a fan of WCW than WWF, and Eric Bishoff was the one who was president of WCW and beat WWF for 84 straight weeks. He invented the nWo, the single greatest angle in wrestling history. In the middle of his streak of beating WWF he have the testicular fortitude to challenge Vince McMahon to a match at a PPV. And now he is with the WWE. It is moments like tonight, where something big happens "for real", that remind me why I love wrestling.

I do not know the extent of Erics creative position with the WWE, but I would be surprised if he is just "talent".

Now we have Vince McMahon, chairman of WWE, Eric Bishoff, former president of WCW, and Paul Hayman, former owner of ECW, three men who at one time where all competing against each other, all on the same team.

There is no excuse for WWE to continue with the average to sub-average product they have been delivering.

If NWA: TNA can get a Monday night slot to compete head to head with WWE, I would be the happiest man on earth.

WWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ERIC BISHOFF IS BACK!!!!!! AND ON WWE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Vince the beginning of Time.....

I got the following quote from Dave Scherer on www.1wrestling.com

"A lot of people are talking about Vince Russo going to [NWA]TNA. As I said above, I have an interview scheduled with him tomorrow, which should be interesting. For those wondering, after he was bumped down to a consultant by WWE, he never signed the contract they sent him, so he is a free agent. I talked about the issue in-depth on my hotline yesterday."


Well, I am a very happy camper. Terry Taylor, who is a big inside name in the wrestling business once said "A person is either a fan of WWF [now WWE] or a fan of any other wrestling organization." I am sure I am a fan of any other wrestling organization. I am actually a fan of any wrestling, but seem to like any other wrestling organization more. I liked WCW more, and even when they were bad, and for awhile they were quite bad, I still watched and hoped they would come back to bet the then WWF once again.

Anyone who has talked to me in person knows I belive that Vince Russo was the greatest writer in the wrestling business. And in fact, the numbers the WWF pulled while he was writing for the seem to prove my point. He certainly has had some horrible idea's, but his pro's far outweigh the con's.

Another point of interest in this situation is this: when Vince Russo worked in WWF, he worked with a man named Ed Ferrara. From what I understand Vince basically set up what should happen on the show and Ed wrote the show. They worked hand in hand in WWF and both had equal power in the company. When they went to WCW, Vince was given a position on notch above Ed, and according to Ed, power quickly went to Vince's head.

Before NWATNA series went on the air, there was a lot of rumors that because Ed Ferrara was going to be commentating for them, Vince Russo must also be working for them. Ed basically said that not only was Vince Russo not working for NWATNA, but the bad blood between them was so bad that they could not work in the same company together. It soul be interesting.

With all this going on in the NWATNA, for the second week in a row I screwed taping tonights show. Out of the four shows they have done, I am missed the last two. I suck.

The Art of Being Sick

Well, one of my friends said I did not comment on my journal enough. I will try to in the future. I went to the Detroit Institute of Art yesterday. I saw a cool painting called Mareata or Marita Leaving Church. I did not know if this was supposed to be Mother Mary. Off to the side the was a person with pointed ears and a pointed beard that looked like a devil of demon talking closely to another person who kind of looked like to tridinal Jesus Christ. As they talked they were both looking a Mary. That was my favorite picture that I saw yesterday. Then I had sushi. Yum. Today I did not go to church and woke up at 5 P.M. Then I went to my Friend James house, watched some Max Ex and got my butt handed to me in video game. I then put in two hard hours of work at Deebe's. My dad was sick last week and I believe I am catching it because I am beat.

Resident Evil

Well, on my last entry I got this comment from an Anonymous user: "Why are you yelling? Calm your ass down, dammit!" I am sure I got this reaction because the person did not have Rocky font installed and so to him it was just big lettering. So I have decided to abandon the Rocky font idea. A couple of days ago I saw Resident Evil at the dollar show. I try to see one dollar show a week. Anyway, Resident Evil is a four finger movie. It is like watching a good video game. I did not like the playstation game, but the movie was better. Great zombies, great plot. However, with some continuity it could have gotten five fingers. In one scene the group of people are together trying to get out of the underground complex, in the next, Milla Jovovich is alone and fighting mutant dogs. This type of thing happens more than once. However the movie is still worth watching. I spent a good portion of the day today trying to get PinMAME installed on my computer correctly. I still have not accomplished this. I will now try again.
