5 Things I'd do as a Billionaire (This is the one I had a little fun with)

1. Buy all of the houses on my street and give one to each member of my family including my grandma, and then either make the extra one a guest house or tear it down and build an ice rink/roller rink and have disco skating on saturday nights.
2. Trade in my Kia Sportage, and buy a fully loaded Kia Sportage.
3. Visit all the temples, and church historic sights
4. Hire someone to design clothes for me so I won't have to go clothes shopping ever again.
And #5 is a little obsessive, but I think it would be so fun! I would buy the Utah Jazz and immediately give the team name to New Orleans. I would then change the name and colors of the team every year to something that has nothing to do with Utah, and I would make millions on all the merchandise the fans would have to buy each year to keep up. I would make myself the GM and fire Jerry Sloan and trade all the good players to the Bobcats for all their bad players and then trade their first round picks for the next 10 years to the Nuggets for JR Smith and Kenyon Martin. Then I would eventually end up with the team being called the Utah Supersonics (because that makes more sense than them being called the Jazz) and use the same logo as the Seattle team while insisting the entire time that I won't move the team, and then sell them to someone who will move them to Seattle within a year, (Just like Larry Miller did with the Golden Eagles hockey team) and then I'll go down in history as the worst GM/Owner in Sports history, but it will totally be worth it.

5 Things you may not know about me

I almost got kicked out of the dorms my freshman year for semi-harmless pranks, but it was the last week of school so nothing happened.
I've been fired from one job, but I knew it was coming and it was the best last day of a job ever because everyone else got fired too. (don't use the Grizzlies as a business model.)
In 1st grade I was in the gifted and talented class, but I made fun of all the other kids in my classes because they were "nerds."
I didn't lose all my baby teeth till my freshman year of high school.
I lived in an apartment where the rest of the roommates were foreign born.

5 Things I love
Halle
The Rest of my Family
Church History
Denver Sports
Colorado

5 People I tag

I would tag Vanessa but I know she wouldn't do it, so if you want to do it go ahead, if not then whatever!

So much for April.

So sorry for my absence in the blogging world. I'm loving Denver, but it has made me a little busy. For one I've been hanging out with my new best friend Halle and I can't get enough of her. I could hang out with her all day, and she is so funny. I'll let Jayme brag about her, but here are some pictures I don't think she has that I just love. She makes the best faces.So anyway that is my niece, and we just play all day. I've also been busy working my temp job and trying to find a real job, and trying to find a roommate for an apartment I'm trying to move into. So if any of you can help with that it would be greatly appreciated. See there's a lot of trying going on, but not a whole lot happening.

So this is my life now and I'm loving it. Although I kind of miss listening to talk radio all day. That is one thing I do miss about my old job. I don't feel as informed anymore which is maybe why I don't have anything exciting to blog about. So for a lack of anything else to say, I give you my favorite video of all time, and it's even better with the slow motion replay!

Pike's Peak or Bust

There have been several times I have sat down at my computer and said I need to write a post. Then as I started writing I realized my life is boring and i have nothing to say. Well things have changed. I wanted to wait to announce this till it was official at work, but I have put in my 2 weeks notice and I am moving to Colorado for good!!!!It's been a long time coming, but it's finally time to go back. Clearly I miss it, and now that I've started liking baseball again I need to move back in time for opening day. So I don't have a job yet, but I do have a few options and should be employed within a few weeks of getting back. If any of you know of any jobs or if you know of any cute guys to set me up with pass it along, and then I'm sure I will have much more to blog about.

So I'm done obsessing over the presidential campaign, because I don't know what I'm going to do about it so I'm waiting to find out if anything new happens. I actually have found a candidate I'm interested in voting for. I heard him on Glenn Beck and he seems to have some good ideas. His name is Wayne Allen Root. He's a libertarian and there are some things I don't entirely agree with him on, but he seems better than the alternatives and most of all he is for lower taxes and more choices!!! Check him out.

By the way, no matter what happens please don't vote for Obama. He is farther left in his voting record than the Socialist senator from Vermont. His agenda will bankrupt the country and will take away a lot of choices.

I was almost to the point where I wanted to just tell everyone to vote for none of the above. It's from one of my favorite movies called "Brewster's Millions" with Richard Pryor. I've put vote none of the above as my you tube search at the bottom of my blog and there's a clip from the movie inthere somewhere. But this picture says it all.

The three candidates in the running right now will only make it worse. Ok so as of now I'm taking a break for a few months from this. It is driving me crazy and maybe a miracle will happen in the next few months that will help make the decision easier.

Well I can't wait to see a lot of you in Denver in a few weeks, and for those in Utah I'll come visit, but I just can't live in a place where they cheer for the Utah Jazz.

Someone Less Inspiring Julia Stiles

Warning. You are about to find out my political leanings. Like they were a big secret before, especially if any of you have met my brother, Jeremy.

I really don't like writing about politics, it's not as fun as the Rockies World Series blog I still need to write (I found a great video for it too), but I have been up sick to my stomach about this since Tuesday night, and I'm almost certain that I am taking crazy pills.

John McCain?!?! Really Florida?!?! John McCain of the McCain/Kennedy immigration reform bill that so many people called their representatives to oppose that the capitol's phone system was shut down?!?!

I also heard someone describe him as charismatic, and I heard him describe himself as inspiring, and that Mitt Romney was less than. Let's get this straight, his STORY is inspiring. The man? Well...you tell me if you don't think he's just a little fireball
