"The Last Week of Summer 2009"

** THE THINGS I'VE LEARNED THIS WEEK **

* Santa Claus got to work early this year by going through his "Naughty and Nice" list and sorting out all the bad apples. Chicago sports fans awoke on Monday morning only to discover the beloved Chicago Bears have gotten a big lump of coal in the form of, Jay Cutler. After an "em-BEAR-assing" loss to Greenbay on Sunday, it's too bad that Santa Claus, Indiana has a "no return" policy on Christmas gifts!
* Never invest money in any "official" Chicago Bears NFL gear with a name and number until the end of the season!
* Kanye West's outrageous behavior became a hot topic around water coolers this week after his rude remarks at last Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards. Many people including, President Obama were shocked and surprised. What shocks and surprises me the most is not what Kanye West did however, the fact that MTV still manages to host Video Music Awards regardless of the fact that I haven't seen a single music video played on any of their four channels since 1990!
* DVD's can be a good investment if you happen to purchase the right movie title. A brand new copy of "Dirty Dancing" left on a coffee table when a first date stops in to see your place, shows off your "sensative" side and gives you bonus points to use to your advantage later!
Happy Friday!
