Now Playing: Always Look On the Bright Side of Life
Always Look On the Bright Side of Life
Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best
And always look on the bright side of life (Whistle)
Always look on the light side of life (Whistle)
If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing
When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle
That's the thing
And always look on the bright side of life (Whistle)
Always look on the bright side of life (Whistle)
For life is quite absurd
And death's the final word
You must always face the curtain with a bow
Forget about your sin
Give the audience a grin
Enjoy it!
It's your last chance anyhow
So, always look on the bright side of death (Whistle)
Just before you draw your terminal breath (Whistle)
Life's a piece of shit
When you look at it
Life's a laugh, and death's a joke
It's true
You'll see it's all a show
Keep 'em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you
And always look on the bright side of life (Whistle)
Always look on the right side of life (Whistle)
It just makes sense right now. Steelers are fucking 3-2. The city of Pittsburgh wants Tommy Maddox's head on a pike. And next Sunday, we have to play, and more importantly, have to win our upcoming game against the Cincinnati "not for real" Bengals. Ugh, this is going to be ugly. But like the song says, I'm trying to look on that bright side of life, but the song needs it's own paragraph.
Man, Sunday was so horrid. First, I was stuck seeing that boring ass game Browns vs. Ravens. Then, when that crap fest goes off, they show the Jaguars vs. Steelers. We go into overtime. We win the coin toss, had a GREAT kick-off return, Maddox fumbles a snap, doesn't fall on the ball, fucking turnover. Goddammit all. But then we got the ball back. Drove it into field goal range. They showed Jeff warming up. They SHOULD have put him in on the third down, in case of a bad snap. Alas, no, Maddox throws an interception, Jags run it in for the touchdown. The strangest thing is that this hurts almost worse than our loss to the worst team ever, who, by the by, are 3-3.
I've had four days in a row off. It's a total accident, but still, go me.
Now, on to the song. May be the greatest song ever. It's a combination of Monty Python and show tunes, how could I resist. I did a search on the show, and it turns out that the the official website plays a version of Eric Idle (I believe) singing it. I want the cast version, more than that, I wish they would release a DVD of the stage version with the original cast. Who knows, they could. I just have to keep an eye out for it.
I know this seems rushed, but I'm working a 2-6 today. I was supposed to work that on Monday, but what the hell ever. I don't care anymore, I don't like to think about it too much. But at least I'll still be home to watch Lost, best show ever.
Oh yeah, great Ben photo this week. Rumors are circulating that he's getting a big head and all that jazz. Well, it's only his second season, I'm sure a couple of losses under his belt, that aren't to Tom Brady will puncture that balloon. But last week doesn't count. He was injured. With that, I post one of the best pictures of him this week...
Once again, the photo I wanted will not upload. This is total crap, it's such a great pic, too. It reminds me of Shawn, because the way he's standing, it totally says, "I'm fucking Superman!" Awesome. So, I guess this'll have to do.
He went back to his old high school for homecoming. That's kinda cute.
I'm phasing.
