I think I like professional fighting if for no other reason than when a trash-talker gets his ass handed to him. Sanchez did a lot of talking and couldn’t back it up. I understand for some they need to boost their own self-confidence but how many times can they do it if they fail? If you have two losses how do you pump yourself after that? For others it is just a way to hype the fight and sell tickets. Either way I love it when the talker get his ass kicked.
BJ Penn shocked me when he fought Sean Sherk and just outboxed the hell out of him. It was just ridiculous. Even though he couldn’t finish Sanchez, though most thought it was over early in the first round, there was never any doubt who was in control of that fight. Though a black belt in Gracie Jiu -Jitsu, Penn outboxed Sanchez and for the first time in Sanchez’s career, Sanchez was knocked down.
Sanchez couldn’t adjust his fight plan. He kept his straight walking punches that often earned him an overhand left by Penn. By the end of the fight he had a double split lip and one of the ugliest gashes I have ever seen on someone’s head. He could stick his wallet in there.
You don’t know what you don’t know.
On to Frank Mir. I love his honesty about other fighters and fights. I wish he would turn that around on himself. At the end of the Penn/Diego fight I was glad Penn didn’t knock him out in the first round. It would have been too easy for Diego or his camp to say there was a lucky punch and if it went the distance Penn would have gasses, etc. etc. There is no room for that.
In Mir’s fight nothing was proven except that he almost knocked Kongo out. Kongo got put to sleep with the stupidest of moves, the guillotine. God I hate that. Both Mir and Kongo were robbed in that fight. We have no idea who would have won that match in the long run.
Mir got lucky against Brock Lesnar and he should know it. He was getting mauled just like he did in the second match vs Lesnar. I think Mir is skilled but he hasn’t proven himself yet. He was destroyed in that second match. His comments before the rematch with Lesnar sounded like someone ready to lose.
107 was a great card and lived up to most of my expectations except for the Mir fight.

The greatest book you knew you needed but didn’t know existed, Cubicle Warfare: 101 Office Traps and Pranks.
First of all, never take this book to work. They will know it’s you and they will pick up some strategies as counter measures.
Second, space the pranks and torture out over time. If the hits become too rapid fire they will be on the look out. You don’t want that.
Or, just before you get fired, or maybe to insure you get fired, pull 25 pranks at once. Video tape it and you will get paid.

I have a hard time believing that this watch is as cool as it looks for only $15.89. OhGizmo! agrees. If you want to give it a shot let me know if it turns your wrist green or breaks in two days.
This is one of those cases where if they were selling the same product for $40 I might be more inclined. But then again I am a cynical guy and don’t buy anything I haven’t actually seen and touched.

Come one everyone, sing along!
“These shoes were made for stabbing, and that’s what just what they’ll do.
One of these days these stilleto heels will stab you the face.”
Doesn’t rhyme but it did get 22 year-old Chetania Davis a year probation and her 52 year-old co-worker seven staples in her face. Much to my surprise her co-worker was also an exotic dancer!
Chetania was upset that there was a new dancer and felt that they didn’t need any new dancers. I don’t think they need a new 52 year-old dancer but what was Chetania worried about? Do you think Morton’s Steakhouse is really concerned when a Sizzler opens up nearby? Noooo. Nor do they go and repeatedly stab the manager of the new McDonald’s nearby.

I, just by sheer luck, have never done any online dating. I was THIS close once and then found someone. I have to say that online dating scares me and the stories I hear enforce that fear. So keep these commandments in mind while you are browsing dating sites at work.

Two brothers living in a cave stand to inherit part of their grandmother’s billions after lawyers for the estate did a geneaological search according to Ananova.com. I can’t even fathom living in a cave nor can I imagine having a piece of a billion dollar pie.
From living in a cave to possibly more money than they can imagine. If things follow the trend in the US where 95 +% of lottery winners end up poorer than they started, will they end up living in the bottom of a hole?
