Friday Night Funnies

Someone sent these to me awhile ago. I think it was my buddy Hyder. Anyway, here is a list of The Top 10 Comments Made By Sports Commentators That They Would Like To Take Back:

1. Weightlifting commentator at the Olympic snatch and jerk event: “This is Gregoriava from Bulgaria. I saw her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was truly amazing.”

2. Ted Walsh, horse racing announcer: “This is really a lovely horse and I speak from personal experience since I once mounted her mother.”

3. Grand Prix race announcer: “The lead car is absolutely, truly unique, except for the one behind it which is exactly identical to the one in front of the similar one in back.”

4. Greg Norman, pro golfer: “I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and father.”

5. Ringside boxing analyst: “Sure there have been injuries and even some deaths in boxing, but none of them really that serious.”

6. Baseball announcer: “If history repeats itself, I should think we can expect the same thing again.”

7. Basketball analyst: “He dribbles alot and the opposition doesn’t like it. In fact you can see it all over their faces.”

8. At a trophy ceremony for a BBC boat race in 1988: “Ah, isn’t that nice, the wife of the Cambridge president is hugging the cox of the Oxford crew.”

9. Metro radio, college football: “Julian Dicks is everywhere. It’s like they’ve got eleven Dicks on the field.”

10. U.S. Open television commentator: “One of the reasons Arnie Palmer is playing so well is that, before each final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them. Oh my God, what have I just said?”

My New Tattoo

At work today they were giving out free flu vaccinations. I had decided that I would take them up on the offer as I didn’t feel like getting too sick this year. I stood in an endless line and noticed that most people were getting their shots in their left arm. I was a little embarrassed to get mine in the left arm as I had just gotten a recent addition to my skin there.*

I forced the young female nurse to get up from her seat and walk around to my right side to administer the shot. I didn’t want her to see the new art on my arm. If she would have pressed the issue she would have seen this:

My new tattoo

For fun The School Girl put some of these rub-on tattoos on herself and one on my arm as well. I guess it was her way of grabbing the Halloween spirit due to missing the holiday with her class that night.

* Boy, I hope that my parents believed for a fleeting moment that I truly got a tattoo and let them find out via the internet!
