January 2009: A plane crash where everyone survives, a black president (who rides the train?!), and I can smell a lie like a fart on Mars. So far, ‘09 is off to a legendary start!

Let me start by saying it amazes me that it’s taken this long to hear about a major yet completely non-fatal plane crash. Having read Malcolm Gladwell’s Outliers, I learned that the majority of fatal plane crashes are not straight up due to mechanical failure. The causes are usually a combination of something like weather and overtired pilots or bad communication, etc… Meaning: a trained, alert, assertive pilot should be able to navigate most troublesome situations successfully. So, all I can say is, good job, Mr. Pilot Man! This world needs more people like you who are frickin’ good at what they do.

Let me also add… Holy Cow. This is the first Martin Luther King weekend where there’s something extra to celebrate. What a crazy coincidental inauguration date. That’s all I have to say about that.

And lastly, who the hell’s been stinking up Mars?
Scientists found Methane on Mars indicating there might be life there. I’m no scientist, but what if it means there’s Taco Bell on other planets? And aliens share our love for chalupas and toy ore.

Life in small town Colorado continues to be both entertaining and relaxing.

Looking to light a candle, I searched for matches in my friend’s cupboard. The box I found seemed old, but who cares, they’re Strike Anywhere! So the thing I discovered about “strike anywhere” is: Anywhere you strike them, they don’t light– including the wall, my arm, the side of the box. Perhaps “Strike Anywhere” is a misnomer, and is referring to what you’d like to do with your angry fist after 10 failed matches. Maybe they need to get together with the One-Size-Fits-All manufacturers and think up some new, more accurate slogans– or at least they could get together to start burning those hideous “one size fits all” oversize novelty tees…

So far I’m enjoying my stay in small town Colorado. The scenery, the wind, and the exciting new stereotypes I’ve learned. Like that republicans are pro-drinking and driving. And vegetarians are limp-wristed. And that’s just from a week of being here! I have so much more to learn!

So, this is cool.. little ceo was featured on the Young Money site today, check it out!

I hope you had a lovely holiday. New Years is always one of those with glorious expectations and late night drunkenness that ends up pretty much hit or miss. I hope yours was not a miss this year, and you didn’t have to dodge air kisses from drunken cowboys like myself.

We have so much to look forward to in ‘09. New President! Reduced-price goods and services! And not to mention 2009 rhymes with flew fousan fine. Happy New Year!
