Blue Lamborghinis

First of all, I got some very helpful tips about what to do with my scattered note problem, thanks for those.

Young Jeezy is a rapper. He's from Atlanta. He raps about a blue lamborghini. I saw it last night driving by North Avenue Presbyterian down Peachtree Street. It was pretty hard to miss. It's one of those cars that when he drove by the question wasn't "is that somebody famous?" but the question was "Who is that?". The Police officer standing next to me who works security for us told me who is was and then proceeded to give me background on what neighborhood he is from and how we was tied to one of the largest crime syndicates in the country. Really upstanding citizen. Sweet car though.

Surgery is next Monday. I had my pre surgery phone appointment with the nurse today to make sure they don't give me an anesthesia that will kill me. I'm pretty easy. No allergies, drug issues, alcohol, other health problems, etc. Very nice nurse who said my surgeon is one of the best. Nice to know, going into a surgery he's doing.

I had a meeting today with an official legislative lobbyist. We are planning a meeting to talk about some advocacy issues around sex trafficking, and North Avenue Presbyterian is hosting the meeting. I had no idea how lobbying works. I mean I thought I knew, but I really didn't know. You talk about politics involved. The more you learn about our democracy you begin to realize its not really a democracy the way we think of it. Its actually sort of depressing. Yes you vote for representative but after their in, you can kiss your voice goodbye, that is unless you have a whole lot of money to throw around.

I watched a little bit of the NFL draft this weekend. I'd like for somebody to grade the analysts on their grading. These guys can totally miss on their opinion, rag a GM or a franchise all weekend and in print and then not be held accountable when they are dead wrong. Tom Brady, the quarterback for the New England Patriots, has won 3 Super Bowls. He was drafted in the 7th round. Somebody graded him as a 7th round draft pick. They shouldn't have any credibility left. But in reality its not about accountability for correct picks, its who is crazy enough to rate 250 college prospects and sound like a know it all.

Finally, I found this show called Exterminators. Its a reality show following a guy named Billy and his family pest control business in Louisiana. He's a very tv friendly guy, and seems very genuine. He's also pretty eccentric. This show is wild. He gets called in on some stuff you wouldn't believe. In one show he goes to a house with a roach investation. It was so bad the people couldn't live in the house anymore. The footage from inside left me with two thoughts. First, this guy is nuts, and second, not everyone is qualified to be a home owner. Take out your trash, clean your dishes, and don't have holes in your walls. That's a good start in not having roaches. Seems like common sense. The show is on A&E. Its pretty entertaining so be careful or you'll get sucked in for hours.
