Allright. so it begins..

I obviously started this blog at some point in my life, so i sure as hell should post something to it.

Oddly enough, I dont remember doing it, however, this is not surprising if you know me.

But seeing as I did, I probably did for a reason, and thus I do.

In the spirit of how I originated this blog, referencing the MSJ Variety hour, I will have to assume This is a political blog, and thus it goes.

EVE OF IOWA 2008

As much of a political junkie as you know me, and pretty far right, I find myself agreeing with Mr. Moore on on issue today. I am finding myself not being able to make up my mind with the Republican field. I mean I have whom I WANT.. Fred Thompson... but I and he knows that he is beat. even with the 20 buck I loaned him for the campaign. Dont worry, fred... its a gimme.

Now dont get me wrong. its all up for grabs at this point. I want Fred, and I think he will make a fine Prez. but the race has gotten so convoluted that even a political junkie like me no longer figure out from day to day what the hell is going on.

and thats fine. its the process, and deep down, we live for this shit. We wake up at 5am reading all the pol wires we can, and then find ourselves disgusted after the second cup by what we see.

then drink a third and read on. Its what we do.

So lets address another issue while  I am here.

THE MATTY AND STECH VARIETY HOUR FEATURING JOSH

I left the show , and Burlington, out of self preservation. Plain and simple. It was stone self serving, and I left a bunch of people in the lurch, the show included. I was spinning out of control in burlington. 

I was pulling shit that even offends me, which is really hard to do. I have spent more breakfasts at the Hilton than I care to remember.

But I guess I really ever leave the show, now do I?

I turned 41 last year. and the 19 years I spent in burlington spawned the largest personal chunk of my life.

 Came during my college years and left still alive. that accounts for something. It has seen a lot of parties , loves (short lived and long term), many marriages, many more divorces, new lives and needless deaths.

in short. life.

SO... Back to the show. I still want to do the show, and I tried to continue the show. We tried live webcams (didnt work). we tried me phoning it in (doesnt have the same effect) . Tried doing the Youtbe thing to compensate. To be honest, it was my greatest effort to date to try to keep my part in the show alive. Everyone had access to the channel, anyone could post to it, but I was the only one doing it (even though EVERYONE on the fucking show has access to cameras and facilities. to me, thats just plain fucking LAZY). I posted 101

But as much as I love it, the fact remains that it is not a healthy thing for me to do. Matty and Josh (and the cast of THOUSANDS) will just have to deal.

Besides. Haik does such a good job. he is a natural personality. His politics and logic suck (and I mean that in the kindest possible terms), but then there you go.  we agree to disagree.
