So I woke up one Friday morning and it was 1992. I was in 9th grade and covered in sweat (from my god-damned second hand waterbed that was always 107 degrees), and acne from my god-damned teenage hormones which to this day have still utterly failed to lower my voice in the slightest. I climbed out of bed and, after toweling off, got dressed in my requisite cut-off sweat pants and T&CRydohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07615404231372902190noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6182307.post-1090179813615826552004-08-17T23:30:00.000-07:002004-08-17T23:41:19.333-07:00It occurs to me that I've missed the entire month of July, and for that I am truly sorry.

Sit down. We need to have a talk.
Now, when I say "we", I mean you need to listen to me talk, so shut up.
I feel that it's time that we discuss Pepsi Edge.

Over the past two years, I, like many Americans I'd wager (seriously, 20 bucks?), have been watching with great interest both the War On Terror, and more specifically, the actions of Al Queda.

So, I've spent some time over at John Titor dot com and I have to confess my deep and relentless curiosity.

When I was younger, so much younger than today, I lived in a big, shiny, beautiful metropolis known to it's many inhabitants as simply Atlanta.
Has a more perfect name for a city ever been concocted?
And no, Tomorrowland doesn't count, as it is a not a real city, but a false moniker invented by a warped, demented mind, just like SeaTac.

Aww yes, welcome back, my brothers and sisters.
Welcome back to the home of the truth.
To the place where everyone is welcome and no soul is ever turned away.
To the center of all that is right, all that is real, all that is fundamentally correct.
My brothers, my sisters, the time has come.
A time I knew would come, but prayed would not.

First off, my apologies for the time off between blog entries. I'd like to say that it will never happen again, but I won't. Because it will.
But at least this time I have a good excuse. I was writing sketches.
OK, it's not a good excuse, but it is an excuse, and I'm using it.
You see, my sketch group The Habit is doing a new show next Rydohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07615404231372902190noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6182307.post-1075785731596040832004-02-04T21:22:00.000-08:002004-02-05T12:35:57.403-08:00AND WE'RE BACK.
I just got through reading all of the blogs and I gotta say it again.
Mark is hilarious.
Completely unrelatedly, this morning I got into a fight.
With, of all people, my mom.
And the worst part about it is, I won.
It all started when I received an email from Moveon.org (via my good friend Jeff Schell) asking me to put my name on a list of people who think that President Bush Rydohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07615404231372902190noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6182307.post-1075170210902498482004-01-26T18:23:00.000-08:002004-01-28T11:10:21.700-08:00I'M 27 NOW (PART II)
When we last left our hero, he was valiantly attempting to ignore the pain in his viciously sprained left ankle and get down to enjoying his birthday. He looked at the clock and it read 11:45.
Perfect.
He'd summon his sidekick Jeff from his lair two stories below, and together they would set off to rid the world, or at least the Wyndham Hotel Pool and Spa, of any kind Rydohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07615404231372902190noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6182307.post-1074728375345976452004-01-21T15:39:00.000-08:002004-01-23T15:51:30.360-08:00Well, I'm now 27 years old.
My birthday was Saturday, and I was in The Windy City of Chicago, Illinois. It wasn't so much windy, as it was God-chillingly windy.
And I've never known the kind of cold that was graciously bestowed upon me as a gift for my birthday by my new pal, Lake Michigan.
Thanks Mishy, it's what I always wanted.

1. It is better to play J.V. than bench Varsity.
2. No one is ever going to put 'em on the glass. Except maybe Jeff.
3. I desperately want to eat the silica gel that comes in shoes and beef jerky. I am thoroughly convinced that it is awesome!
4. It is impossible to lick your own elbow.

It has been brought to my attention that perhaps the reason that I suffered this devastating injury (see last entry), has something to do with the fact that I foolishly chose to insult The Deaf Community in a recent blog.
Some would say that I only got what I deserved.
That I had, in fact, messed with The Bull.
And we all know what happens when you do that.

I'm going to be writing a lot more in the next few weeks (that's the good news), because I have what's known as a sprained ankle.
And before you ask, yes, it hurts. A lot.

I figured it out.
I know what the coolest nickname of 2004 is going to be.
And let's not forget, I'm the guy who called Pilates, five years ago.
Here we go;
The coolest nickname of 2004 is going to be...
"My Nilla"
As in, "What up guys, this here's Luke, David, Detlef, and my nilla Ryan."

Oh my God!
What can I say but thank you?
Thank you so much.
It was just a pleasure to be nominated with the likes of David "Funniest Man in the World" Swidler, Luke "Guy Who Got Mugged With The Funniest Man in the World" Thayer, and, jeff.

Incidentally, it really bothers me when I'm talking to some guy about last night's festivities and he feels an obligation to tell me exactly what type of and how many alcoholic beverages he ingested,
"Dude, I had four margaritas, three shots of tequila, and like, two beers!"

It is a story about my childhood. I know how much my readers are fascinated by that subject, and since I 'm a man of the people, I must acquiesce.
I was in 3rd grade in Florida and my teacher's name was Mrs. Blankenship. It's strange, I can remember her name very easily, but if you were to ask me what I had for dinner every night last week, I'd only Rydohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07615404231372902190noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6182307.post-1071734521192780902003-12-18T00:02:00.000-08:002003-12-18T16:05:41.923-08:00Yesterday I saw the Lord Of the Rings and shit my pants.
Not in that order though.
I was standing in my kitchen when I first woke up early in the morning, around 11:50, and I felt the urge to "break wind", or "pass gass", or "cut the cheese" or, as the kids say, " Dobosh up the place" and decided that I would "be like Mike" and "just do it".

It has only been a matter of days since I made my now infamous proclamation regarding the status of Iraq, and already you see that my global influence is nothing short of breath taking. I said to you then,
"Don't worry fellas, I got this."
