Campfire With Roy Cabras →
busch light has overthrown grape drink as my favorite beverage. for now.
The Great Stan Lee...
Stan Lee (@smilinatanlee) has the greatest tweets ever. He’s so entertaining, even in just 140 characters. It’s no wonder he’s the grandfather of modern comics.
my ideal job...
My ideal job? 1st Base Coach for a Major League Baseball team.
PROS:
Watch baseball games from the FIELD. Screw your field level seats, I’m FIELD ON, sucker.
Eat sunflower seeds. Great snack and excellent source of fiber.
Endless supply of Gatorade.
Dress like a pro athlete. Everyday is Halloween, but you get PAID for it.
You ARE the high five guy. Single, walk, hit by pitch. ...

people are dumb and now there’s a new “scarlet letter” to help identify them.

would you rather:
have your own Transformer.
Literally a giant transforming robot car, with laser cannon hands that also doubles as your own personal chauffeur/designated driver/witty best friend,

Excellent sense of humor.

2 Kinds of People in Life...
v-u-versus:
I’ve come to realize that there are 2 kinds of people in life -
those that like the Beastie Boys,
AND
those that don’t like the Beastie Boys.
Actually, I’ve only had one “friend,” in all my life, that DIDN’T like the the Beastie Boys and we’re not even friends anymore.
So I guess, in reality, a better title for this entry is -
“People I’m friends with and People I’m not...
The Doctor...
v-u-versus:
I went to the doctor the other day and received some bad news – I’m fat. I was skeptical at first, so I asked for a second opinion. He brought in a mirror. Dude did his homework, it was a textbook diagnosis. Our conversation went as follows:
Doctor: “Based on your body mass index, you’re overweight and borderline obese.”
Me: “Hmm, what are my options?”
Doctor: “Options? ...

A pleasant morning...
I awaken to a man’s voice, off in the distance. As I slowly shake the grogginess from my head, I realize that the sound is from a radio, probably an alarm clock left on by a neighbor. The faint lyrics, though barely audible, yet completely comprehensible, are to a song I’ve never heard before. “And I was round when Jesus Christ, Had his moment of doubt and pain, Made damn sure that Pilate,...
Some ramblings...
The belief in god. The need to eat. The desire for companionship. The agony of losing something you love. The torture of not getting what you want.
The human condition is inescapable, inexplicable and unnecessary. Self important, futile beings obsessed with prolonging the inevitable. In the grand scheme of things, we are a species wholly unimportant, yet devastatingly needy and...
hello and welcome!
v-u-versus:
Hi, my name is Kyle but you probably don’t care anyway. This little crap-shack of a blog is a work in progress, but there are some basic rules I will try to follow:
I’ll speak in short paragraphs and even shorter sentences.
I will not take your intelligence into consideration. I don’t think you’re dumb, just preoccupied. These words are probably only a snapshot of the countless...
Discipline...
Discipline:
I don’t have it. I once thought that to be a “good person” you have to be disciplined, whatever that means. Recently I conducted a social experiment. After a recent bender in Las Vegas, I entertained the idea of sobriety. I had good intentions. I decided I was an island, one where the Volstead Act was never repealed.
My theory was that bad things often happen when I drink,...
black and white?
I believe that almost everything in life is an exaggerated grey area.
I believe that nothing in life is black and white. Letter of the law? No such thing. The line between right and wrong gets fuzzier everyday. The good guys look a lot like the bad guys and the bad guys get lost in the crowd. John Wayne is missing in action and the devil seems to be on holiday.
There is only you and I left.
unoriginality...
Unoriginality. 90% of what I say is just a regurgitated thought, if not a direct quote from some poor chap that I won’t credit.
Is it better to be completely unique and thus shunned by everyone around you because they can’t understand wtf you’re talking about and cant relate to you, thus leaving you depressed and isolated?
Or is it better to be a witty phony, totally familiar because you’re just...
