Case File: Dingos Ate My Baby New Year

Four more months... That's all I have to wait until this year of odd, random occurrences is over... Although the concept of the year has little to no actual bearing on life itself other than it being the length of time it takes for the Earth to circle the sun... The notion that a new year is equivalent to a fresh new start is all in our heads....

Like the Easter Bunny....

And Ben Affleck's acting abilities...

This year for me has been quite the clusterfuck... almost a life representation of a beautifully chaotic art piece... that you'd be damned if you understood it's underlying meaning

Like that "Dogs Playing Poker" portrait... one day I'll crack the meaning behind that one dammit.

I saw this episode of America's Most Wanted where 4 guys stole a sum total of 14 million bucks... 2 guys were caught... the other 2 fled the country with over 10 million unrecovered... Bastards

So nearing the end of a much needed beer night I asked Santiago a round of questions on what he would do for money....

Dre: Dude... 1 million is alot of money
Sant: Yeah... but still.....
Dre: Ok ok... $5 million to let Nelson give you a hand job...
Sant: For how long?
Dre: Until you finish
Sant: Ugh.......
Dre: And in front of your parents
Sant: Fuck that... no
Dre: Really?... I'm pretty sure he's got soft hands
Sant: Haha... no
Dre: Yeah you're right... But what if I told you that you you wouldn't have to worry about money for the REST of your life if you did this
Sant: Eh... I dunno....
Dre: Bro, it's not gay or anything... he would just be helping you out with something you'd normally do on your own anyway

But alas, I couldn't fool Sant into saying yes... I'm pretty sure he knew once he did all it would result in would be a bevy of gay jokes... Maybe I'll think of a more creative scenario next year.
