Ok Vitt, I know I promised I would reward your hard work with a write-up on the Lam family history but all I can find is your family crest. It’s past my bed time and I want to sleep.

Lots of things going on in the past little while…

-Friday was quarterly bonus day so I bought myself a new tv. It’s a 42″ Samsung and it’s pretty awesome. I got a great deal on it (Thanks Kellerrrrr) because it was serviced at our depot so I’m pretty happy about it.

-Saturday we went to Mel and Bennys for supper. I really like going over there, they are good people. Played some cards, and I learned a little bit watching Benny change brake pads. Benny has a man’s man garage, complete with old liscence plates and a swimsuit girl calander from 1994. I hope he gets his old car fixed up so he can put the ’68 plates on it like we talked about.

-Sunday some of the guys came by for the TNA ppv… It was a decent show I guess, the review is below.

Hulk Hogan Promo w/ Brooke Hogan – He’s glad to be here blah blah blah. Orton hits the ring and challenges him for SummerSlam.

Rey Mysterio ©, Batista and Lashley def. Finlay ©, King Booker and Mark Henry – Match basically built to a tag to Batista who destroyed everyone and hits the Batista bomb on Booker for the win.

Carlito and Trish def. Johnny Nitro © and Melina – Decent fun little match. I really like the pairing of Trish and Carlito.

DX (HHH and HBK) def. The Spirit Squad (Kenny, Johnny, Mikey, Nicky and Mitch) – Vince added a wrinkle to the match that if you are pinned and eliminated you are put in a little “holding cell” cage next to the ring. Basically a squash, dX destroys everyone and eventually Vince gets superkicked into the cell by Shawn Michaels. Very anti-climatic.

Promo with Great Khali, Big Show and Undertaker – Hypes the GAB match and Show challenges ‘Taker to an ECW title match on Tuesday night. (What are they trying to do to me!!)

Extreme Rules Match: Sabu def. Stevie Richards – Basic Sabu squash but he needs to measure distance a little better because these arabian facebusters he’s trying to finish matches with look like shit.

Orton RKO’s Hogan in the parking lot after being shoo’d away from Brooke.

Diva bull-riding. Who gives a fuck.

John Cena def. Edge by DQ – Seemed a lot shorter then the 8 minutes it actually was. A standard Cena/Edge match which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Edge gets DQ’d after Lita pulls Chioda out of the ring during a pin attempt and slaps him. After the match Cena hits the FU on Edge off the ring steps through the announce table.

I give this show a 6.

Preshow:
Johnny Devine w/ Alex Shelley def. Shark Boy – Nice to see Devine in a role other then Team Canada, he gets the win with a brainbuster. Nothing special.

PPV Show:
The Naturals w/ Shane Douglas def. The Diamonds in the Rough w/ Simon Diamond – Shane Douglas introduced the “new” Naturals… I haven’t watched much TNA lately so I don’t really remember the old Naturals. They get the win after a top rope dropkick. After the match Douglas got in the face of his new team, Tenay explained this as they won but it wasn’t good enough.

Rhino vs. Monty Brown – I don’t get Monty Brown, and I don’t think I ever will. They brawled in the ring and then to the floor and in the crowd and all over the building untill the match was called a double DQ or countout or whatever…. Sucked.

Homicide & Hernandez w/ Konnan def. Sonjay Dutt & Ron Killings – After interference from Konnan, Hernandez nailed Dutt with a powerbomb for the win. Lots of high impact stuff made for a fun match.

At this point, Team Canada came to the ring to disband. I’m not sure the angle as I haven’t watched much TNA lately but it seems Eric Young was to blame as he took a lot of heat from his teammated but the crowed LOVED him. This was fucking LOOOOOOONG. Way too long.

Senshi def. Frankie Kazarian – Senshi gets the win after the top-rope double stomp in a match I really liked. Good to see Low Ki back.

Raven def. Larry Zbyszko in a Hair vs. Hair Match – Didn’t really watch this one but I assume it sucked and the haircut took forever.

Chris Sabin & Jay Lethal def. Kevin Nash & Alex Shelley – This was a rerally fun match and Nash was used in a way where he would be involved but not drag down the workrate. I really liked it.

The James Gang & Abyss def. Team 3D – A really fun brawl to watch, SPike almost got killed during the crowd surfing spot. Abyss tossed him into the crowd and after surfing for a minute or 2 he was dumped back into the ringside area and it looked like he hit his head on the steps. It was also fun watching Buh Buh try and staple a sign that saud “ECW fears TNA” to Abyss’ head. Spike was horribly put through a table with a Black Hole Slam by Abyss for the finish.

AJ Styles, Christopher Daniels, & Sirelda def. America’s Most Wanted & Gail Kim – This one was good but it could have ben great. They just didn’t click and Sirelda is pretty brutal, anyone know anything about her?

Sting def. Christian Cage, Samoa Joe and Scott Steiner – Jerrett threw “gasoline” in Stings eyes and he disappeared for a while only to make the trimphant return with bandaged eyes to pull Cage off Steiner and get the pin. Decent I guess.

I give the show a 6.5.

When did Frank Stallone join Il Divo?

How did I, a 30 year old man, get to be the aficianado of teenage melodramatic tv shows?

I love when “Greatest Sports Disasters” is on TLC…. Not sure why, I guess I just like watching brawls

Hey Jill, I guess I should warn you when I am closing at work so I don’t read your comment that spoils the end of the Big Brother episode I was gonna watch when I get home. No worries though sis.

I’ll watch it anyway

The trailer for Jackass 2 is up here. It looks too funny, I can’t wait.

Also, word is circulating that the bad guy in the next Rush Hour film will be none other then Jean Claude Van Damme. That sound you hear is my crest falling.

Had a great night last night, first time I’ve felt good in a while. Thank you.

Apparently Darryl Sutter is stepping down as coach of the Calgary Flames to concentrate on General Manager duties…. Jim Playfair will be his replacement.

Not sure what to think of this, big fan of Sutter as the coach but the moves he’s made as GM speak for themselves.

Next Seasons Flames schedule is here
Nest Seasons Oilers schedule is here

Been reading a lot of blogs lately…. Had a lot of time alone and I’m trying to fill it up as best as I can. I skim through blogger blogs by clicking the “next blog” button in the top right corner and I read all of my friends, as well as just people I know.

Been reading my friends and I had a few comments:

Moks: When did you start at HMV and how did that come about? And what happened to the gigs at the P&W?

Matt: Good luck with the poker but be careful, this is real life.

Shigs: How was She Wants Revenge? I hated them at first but they are growing on me a little.

Jesus: Sorry about Portugal, that must have sucked for you.

Fleets: I’m not sure how I feel about another prosperity check… As a parent I’d like to see that money pumped into schools and things like that to give my child more advantages, but a check for $400 would be nice. The surplus is what, $8 billion? Why not do both….

Cleaned the hell out of my bedroom today, threw out a lot of stuff and took a lot of clothes to the 2nd hand store.

It’s really hot in here and this little fan isn’t really cutting it.

Inked on A&E is a good show, I dig it.

-Show opened with a promo from Paul E saying he would be ECW’s messiah. Awesome delivery but it looked like the fans had no idea what the hell he was talking about.

-Test def. Tommy Dreamer. Better then it had any right to be, I was quite surprised. Test gets the win with the feet on the ropes.

-Vingette with the tarot card reader and the Vampire. Pull the trigger already!

-Kelly and Candice dance…. Joey Styles said it best: “This is getting redundant.” Mike Knox did his usual interruption and got caned by the Sandman.

-CM Punk promo. I am pumped to see him start working, and I’m glad they haven’t really changed his gimmick or anything. Talked about how all his tattoos have a meaning.

-Justin Credible def. Sabu by DQ. NOT an extreme rules match but Sabu doesn’t care!! Sabu leg drops Justin through a tabe to get dq’d. Really dumb and lame.

-Big Show def. Ric Flair. I thought this would suck and for the first half I was right but they really built to something special with Flair pulling out the ‘extreme’ stops to try and get the win… It will tie in nicely with the Foley Angle.

I now return myself to my regularly scheduled laundry and cleaning.
