With all these tweets about the NFL, and my head still spinning from it, I thought a tweet about Tyler Seguin starting his day with the Cup would be appropriate. Just to change the monotony.
"@NHLBruins: Tyler Seguin has started his day with Lord Stanley's Cup...^BISH http://yfrog.com/klzt5slj"
If you have a tweet that you think should be passed along then forward it to me.

Man you Ugly
Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle! Chinese villagers mistake atrophied ape for alien This ape made a monkey of Chinese villagers who feared it was a visitor from another world.
Locals panicked when Mao Xiping, a housewife from the village of Gezhai, in Henan province, central China, found the scraggy simian stealing cucumbers from her flat.
She thought it was a harmless rabbit, until she noticed it had an 'alien face' and her neighbours agreed it was like nothing they had ever seen before.
Visitor from another world: A Chinese housewife caught this atrophied ape stealing cucumbers from her flat - and called the police
An alarmed Mrs Mao rang police for help. But officers thought she was monkeying around until she trapped the animal and took it to the police station.
She took it in caged in a washing basket and demanded that officers place it under arrest.
Experts were last night examining the malnourished monkey, which was so thin its ribs could be seen through its skin.
Frightened: Mrs Mao captured the monkey and took it to the police station
Mrs Mao said: 'At first I thought it was a rabbit, then I was shocked to see it had an alien face.
'My neighbours agreed it was like nothing we'd seen before.
'It stopped eating cucumbers when we gave it peaches - now it won't eat anything else.'
What more can I say than this is the ugliest thing I have ever seen. That being said how fucking sheltered is this village when they think this is a alien from another world you can tell its a sick monkey. secondly how bad is this hell bitch. she's thinking this thing is a fucking Alien and traps its ass for eating her food put her in UFC she would kick everyones ass.
Worlds Biggest Dog
Meet George, George is officially the worlds biggest dog a Great Dane over 7 feet long. George is from Arizona where he lives with his family and was born in Oregon and was the runt of a liter of 13. George has to sleep on a queen size mattress and as you can see one big ass dog. Also George is terrified of Chihuahuas so he can not make my list of bad ass dog, but he is impressive.
Spiderman Reboot
I'm an admitted geek I know that I like marvel comic movies, DC movies, transformers and it is what it is. I liked the original Spider man movies but hated Tobey McGuire as Peter Parker cringed every time I had to watch him. i like this new Peter Parked and love the 1st person perspective of how they show Spidey in this trailer.

National Hot Dog Day - July 23
The Post - If you thought paying $7 for a hot dog at the ballpark was outrageous, you might want to get out the defibrillator.
The Brockton Rox hope to break the Guinness World Record for most expensive dog by serving an $80, half-pound behemoth, covered in decadent toppings you won't even find at some Michelin-starred restaurants. The Massachusetts-based member of the Canadian-American Association of Professional Baseball will roll out the extravagant frankfurter on July 23 -- National Hot Dog Day.
The foot-long wiener will get the royal treatment. After deep frying, it will be rolled in truffle oil, then coated in porcini dust. The dog is to be topped with white truffle shavings and crème fraiche. If that doesn't gild the lily enough, the frank will be finished with caviar and fresh roe.
This offering will certainly put the Rox on the map. For those outside of the Boston area, the team name is a tribute to the Red Sox. And although you probably aren't familiar with anyone on the roster, the Rox are managed by famed Red Sox first baseman Bill Buckner.
"What better way to celebrate National Hot Dog Day than with a new twist on a ballpark favorite," says club CEO Chris Carminucci.
No pictures of the frank are available yet, because the caviar isn't due in until next week. (Hate it when that happens!) But if you're anywhere in the Brockton area when the Rox take on the Newark Bears next Saturday, this ballpark frank is not to be missed.
Now let's see if Joey Chestnut shows up and drops $5000 for 62 of these bad boys.
Listen I am a fatty(yeah fatty not a foody), I like most foods and if I don't like something I will at least give it a college try. We all know that I love a good hot dog (Speed Dogs anyone?) but there is no way on gods green earth that I would pay $80 for a hot dog, unless it came with a guaranteed blow job!!
I can think of better ways to spend $80.00
1. 2 tickets to 6 Flags at $36.99 each = $73.98
2. 4 30 packs at $18.99 each plus $1.50 deposit = $81.96
3. 3 tickets to ride Codzilla at $25.00 = $75.00
4. 4 Buckets of beers(5 beers each bucket) at $17.00 = $68.00 plus $12.00 in tip money
5. A $49.00 30 oz Rib Eye Chop, Onion marmalade $6.00, A $7.00 twice baked potato, An order of short rib mac and cheese $11.00 at K.O Prime = $73.00
6. 26 boxes of Twinkies at $3.00 each = $79.00
7. 47 King size Kit Kats at $1.69 = $79.43
8. 10 Beers at $8.00 at Fenway park = $80.00
9. 3 $25.00 hands of Black Jack at Foxwoods = $75.00 with $5 for a tip for the drink lady.
10. 2 tickets to OAR at Bank of America Pavilion = $69.00
I mean I could go on all day with how many pizzas from the real Pizzeria Reginas, burgers from RF O'Sullivans, gas for a road trip to Montreal, or even scratch tickets for shits and giggles I would buy but I think you get the point. Who is buying this $80.00 hot dog?

... of the week
All of a sudden people stopped texting me good, solid, funny shit and only sent me things that said - "This should be text of the week", "why didn't I get text of the week", "why was that text of the week", "...I texted so and so and it was so great I cant believe they didn't forward it to you for text of the week", and finally " you only get text of the week if you include a photo of Derek" . I have decided to ADD Tweet of the week. I know that this blog goes through spurts where it lags and I am always trying to update it with fun entertaining shit. I think this can be a great addition.
Now, I know I am still getting used to this Twitter thing. I don't know who to follow(the people who you think would be good; aren't. The ones who should suck dinky: are bomb. And some of the most randoms have the best shit to say), why everyone is dying for a RT, what to hash tag or how to start trending randomness but damn it I am gonna get to the bottom of it all. It will be a learning process for me as well as you. Since I only tweet from my phone, I am going to put the tweet up in text form - @said person of interest.
If you are on twitter maybe you can start following them or maybe it will make you want to join twitter. Either way, I saw this Tweet today and it gave me the whole idea for Tweet of the week because I literally laughed out loud. I mean we have all been David Hasselhoff drunk on a bathroom floor drunk with a cheese burger slurring our words, RIGHT? I mean this week alone - 3 times!!
"@blakeshelton: On a scale of drunk I'm ringing in a solid "Cheese Burger" on the David Hasselhoff scale...."
If you have any ideas on how to make the blog better send me an email, text or a tweet.

Winthrop man faces eighth drunk driving case
Boston.com - Despite having his driver’s license revoked for life by the state, a Winthrop man was behind the wheel Tuesday when he was arrested in Revere and charged with drunk driving -- eighth offense.
Joseph F. Limone has seven prior convictions dating back to 1970, according to Suffolk District Attorney Daniel F. Conley’s office. According to the Registry of Motor Vehicles, Limone has not had a valid driver’s license since at least 1985.
According to prosecutors, Limone has been convicted of drunk driving in Essex and Suffolk counties in 1983, Suffolk County in 1984, Essex County in 1987 and 1996, and Middlesex County in 2001 and 2007. The 2007 conviction is under appeal.
“There’s no excuse for a person with this driving record being on the road,” Conley said in a statement.
Limone, 60, of South Main Street in Winthrop, pleaded not guilty drunk driving, fifth or subsequent offense, in Chelsea District Court Wednesday where Conley’s office convinced a judge to hold him without bail pending a dangerousness hearing.
Limone is also charged with operating on a revoked license, furnishing a false name to police and civil infractions including making a harsh or objectionable noise in the operation of a motor vehicle, according to Conley’s office.
According to a State Police report, Limone was allegedly driving a 1988 Lincoln Town Car down Revere Beach Parkway around 5 p.m. Tuesday, tailgating a car in front of him while repeatedly shouting at the driver.
The driver pulled into a parking space followed by Limone who continued to shout at the driver of the now-stopped vehicle, State Police said. Trooper Shawn O’Neil, who was patrolling Revere Beach, tried to pull Limone over, but Limone allegedly drove off, prosecutors said.
Limone allegedly turned onto Beach Street, driving the wrong-way on the one-way street, prosecutors said. Limone stopped the car and identified himself as “Richard Fasanelli,’’ prosecutors said.
Troopers discovered a state identification card in his true name of Joseph Limone, prosecutors said. Asked how much alcohol he had been drinking, Limone allegedly replied, “two shots.”
O’Neil arrested Limone on drunk driving charges based on the odor of alchol and because e failed multiple field sobriety tests Limone, including being unable to recite portions of the alphabet, prosecutors said.
Limone allegedly fought with troopers, kicked out a window in a cruiser and repeatedly was hit with pepper spray following his arrest.
Limone’s attorney for the Revere arrest, John MacLachlan, did not immediately return a telephone call.
The Supreme Judicial Court will hear oral arguments Sept. 8 on a move by Middlesex prosecutors to reinstate Limone’s seventh drunk driving conviction, which was thrown out because he was stopped by an off-duty Somerville police officer in Woburn.
Limone allegedly hit the off-duty officer’s vehicle. The off-duty officer, who was in uniform after working a paid detail, took Limone’s keys and told Limone to stay in the car while he summoned Woburn police. Limone was then arrested for drunk driving.
I guess 8th times the charm? I love how he fought troopers and kicked out windows at the nice ripe old age of 60.

I am sunburned
I am red as a lobster today. Thanks to sitting up in the right field roof seats yesterday afternoon.
Lets see what I learned this weekend:
1. The Sea Dog in Hull is pretty nice.
2. Ryan doesn't like beers but he will kill for some red death shots!
3. 3 legged wolf? I think?
4. Do not swear at Fenway park. Some one lodged a complaint against me...I mean I literally swore once.
5. Mungo drinks sugar free RedBull like there is no tomorrow.
6. What the hell is going on here:
7. I guess if you are a feminine male you play up the gay role to get bitches in bed. By hanging out with a gay man - "he likes pole, I like hole".
8. Is it normal if the aforementioned twosome, who likes pole and hole, also makes porno movies? Seems only proper right?
9. I lost a shot gun race. I am retired.
10. MikeG didn't recoginize Dan Madden. Guess the kid bulked up a bit.
11. I did run one hell of a Tiki Bar.
12. Peer pressure is a son of a bitch...just ask Rich.
13. Congrats to Jeffrey and Sarah for officially tieing the knot.
14. I guess El Guapo is huge in London Chap:
As always I am sure that I learned more but probably was too drunk to remember or write it down. There is a fund raiser on Thursday night down at Fanueil Hall if anyone is interested in coming down and donating.

Fishing?
I was just wondering if anyone would be interested in chartering a boat and going fishing? Stripers? Bass? Sharks? Whatever we can catch!
Right now I haven't really look too far into it because I need a head count. There seems to be different prices based on what you are fishing for and the prices range from $100.00 per person to $250.00.
This is all preliminary at this junction.
I am sure just like Spectacle Island, white water rafting, camping(nothing happened in the tent) and Codzilla everyone will say that they want in but when it comes time to decide on a date or time no one will be around or at the last minute they will bail when all the plans are in.
Just let myself or Mario know if you want in - via the text message, email or even a phone call(Rio likes the phone the best).

Follow the Cup
http://espn.go.com/blog/boston/bruins/
The Stanley Cup’s summer tour has begun, with each player, coach and staff member of the Bruins getting at least one day with hockey’s Holy Grail before training camp begins in Europe.
Here are some of the details on where the Cup has been and where it’s headed, courtesy of the Canadian Press:
• Bruins owner Jeremy Jacobs took the Cup to Yosemite National Park in California over the weekend before passing it on to assistant coach Doug Houda, who brought it to Whitefish, Mont., on Tuesday.
• Nathan Horton, whose Game 3 season-concussion proved to be an inspiration to the team for the Stanley Cup finals, will be the first player to get his day with the Cup. He will host the trophy in mid-July in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
• After Florida, the Cup will go on a tour of Europe, with Tomas Kaberle (Kladno, Czech Republic) , David Krejci (Sternbeck, Czech Republic) and Zdeno Chara (Trencin, Slovakia) getting their time with it before sending it off to Savonlinna, Finland, where Tuukka Rask will get his day.
• From there, the Cup will head back to North America, stopping at various locales in Ontario at the end of July. Shawn Thornton (Oshawa), Dan Paille (Welland), Rich Peverley (Guelph), Gregory Campbell (Tillsonburg), Tyler Seguin (Brampton), Marc Savard (Peterborough) and Chris Kelly (Ottawa) will all get their time with it on its Ontario tour.
• After Ontario, the Stanley Cup will head to seven other Canadian provinces throughout August. Patrice Bergeron (Quebec City), Mark Recchi (Kamloops) and Milan Lucic (Vancouver) will bring it to British Columbia, Shane Hnidy will get it in Neepawa, Manitoba, Johnny Boychuk will take it to Edmonton, Adam McQuaid will get it on Prince Edward Island, Brand Marchand will have it in Nova Scotia and Michael Ryder will host the Cup in Labrador.
• Somewhere along the way, the Cup will stop in Flint, Mich., where Conn Smythe winner Tim Thomas will spend the first of his two days with the Cup. He has previously said he’d also like to take the Cup to Vermont, where he played college hockey.
Throughout the summer, the Hockey Hall of Fame will chronicle where the Cup has been and where it's going in this journal.

Lets start the week off right
I am hoping everyone had a nice July 4th. I mean who doesn't enjoy a nice long weekend.
Lets see what I learned this weekend:
1. The meat market over by 1010 Mass ave sucks! Not worth the time or effort.
2. Apparently 4 Loko is back:
3. I saw the new Transformers: Dark of the Moon and I was not impressed.
4. Mike Foley does not like to lose at anything.
5. The Asians are super rude on the T. I mean no social etiquette what so ever.
6. Legos are dead to me. Basically they are just model cars and lack any imagination.
7. DJ Brighto takes his DJing super seriously.
8. Never try to rush cooking steak tips, even if you want to play bean bag toss.
9. I would say the 1st July 4th weekend cookout was a success.
10. Stylegal and her team of misfits beat my flip cup team 3-2. It was not my regular team One Flip but I will take that loss on my shoulders.
11. I guess Tiger spicy Shrimp is ok but Fire cracker chicken is not? Some people can't handle the heat.
12. Everyone gets upset with different house rules for beer pong. I may need to get a sheet made and hung up with all the rules for the garage wall.
13. Those 5 day coolers that say ice will stay ice in 90 degree weather are no joke. Still got have a cooler of ice and beers. Who wants some?
14. Sometimes dogs just like to be dogs and that includes not always getting along.
15. Who knew that Grillo was into movie producing as well as music producing since he was 13?

2. Apparently 4 Loko is back:
3. I saw the new Transformers: Dark of the Moon and I was not impressed.
4. Mike Foley does not like to lose at anything.
5. The Asians are super rude on the T. I mean no social etiquette what so ever.
6. Legos are dead to me. Basically they are just model cars and lack any imagination.
7. DJ Brighto takes his DJing super seriously.
8. Never try to rush cooking steak tips, even if you want to play bean bag toss.
9. I would say the 1st July 4th weekend cookout was a success.
10. Stylegal and her team of misfits beat my flip cup team 3-2. It was not my regular team One Flip but I will take that loss on my shoulders.
11. I guess Tiger spicy Shrimp is ok but Fire cracker chicken is not? Some people can't handle the heat.
12. Everyone gets upset with different house rules for beer pong. I may need to get a sheet made and hung up with all the rules for the garage wall.

14. Sometimes dogs just like to be dogs and that includes not always getting along.
