A Frustrated Politics Post
After watching a decent amount of coverage of the ‘08 DNC, I figured I might as well follow in the footsteps of my other blogging brethren and share with you, the public, my self-important opinions.
During a normal election year I can pass the time by making fun of Bush’s terrible dance moves, awkward kisses between candidates and their wives, and not having to try and imagine what...

Hangovers
So, I have a love/hate relationship with a hangover. The hate part is obviously easy to understand. You have the dry mouth, headache, body ache, stomachache, thirst and any other eclectic aches you can think of. Also, if you have known me for any long period of time you would know that I get killer hangovers, way worse than your average bear. I have been know to vomit and show flu like symptoms...

WatchNick showed me this video a few days ago and I thought it was hilarious. So in honor of the end of the Olympics I am putting it up.
It is kind of sad though that this kind of character is the world’s fastest man. He just seems kind of like a douche. Also, what is with runners jocking the 1996 gold shoes style?
Oh, and props to some kid named Bryan.

News FLASH!
August 24, 2008
NEW YORK- Brooklyn resident, Nick Divers, recently censored himself on his personal blog “Best Roof Talk Ever” due to a failed joke. Two days ago, Nick Divers posted a screen shot of a recent online conversation between himself and a good friend. The conversation was about a particular Johnny Cash lyric and a unicorn. No one understood the humor. As of today, the post...

Kid Rock
It has recently come to my attention that Kid Rock’s career is not dead. Who knew? A wonderful weekend in Connecticut was marred only be one thing and that is: “All Summer Long” by Mr. Kid Rock (who according to the very trusted information website known to a few as wikipedia was born Robert James Ritchie.)
Now, for those of you who have never heard that song it is a song...

Boredom; A Metaphor
The great George William Wasgatt XXIV once wrote: “Dude, doing nothing is sweet.” Although one might initially be inclined to agree with the oft quoted and infamous Connecticutian, I, Davey Sherwinter III (creater and copyright holder of the phrase “best roof talk ever”) am forced to disagree. Contrary to popular belief, being paid to do nothing for a span of 10 hours is...

Michael Phelps + 8 Gold = George's Wet Dream
Call me gay. Call me a man lover but I love Michael Phelps. Maybe it is his sexy long torso or his dinner plate hands but I do believe in him. Michael Phelps is my American Dream. I care more about him winning 8 gold medals than I do about the upcoming 2008 presidential election. Go McCain if Phelps can win all 8 gold medals.
Post Script- Screw the Chinese and the Russians, Georgia, Bulgaria,...

Making fun of Olympian Shawn Johnson's blog:
ehleybay: shes in the gym all of the time
ehleybay: she doesnt study
Nick Divers: this is a classic sentence
Nick Divers: The coolest thing that i experienced today that i will never forget was that even tho this is the time when we pushed to our absolute limit physically and mentally and when every little second counts every single one of us was still able to smile, have a good time, cheer for one other, and have a warm hug waiting for when each of us finished.
Nick Divers: reading that is like trying to run down a tightrope
ehleybay: oh my god, thats all one sentence
Nick Divers: what i would do if I were Shawn's tutor
ehleybay: like actually uncomfortable
Nick Divers: is take the blog as an opportunity to teach her!
ehleybay: ITS EXPRESSION
ehleybay: let her flowwww
Nick Divers: Here:

duncanqskiles: if you think people are inherently nasty why don't you think they would have blown each other up on the boats
Nick Divers: thats a good question
Nick Divers: but i think its a complicated answer
Nick Divers: i shouldnt say that humans are inherently nasty
Nick Divers: thats unfair
Nick Divers: even though i think i said those exact words
duncanqskiles: i think you said just "nasty"
Nick Divers: i think its irresponsible to trust human beings to do the right thing
Nick Divers: but i think that, with the law of human nature being an under-riding thing
Nick Divers: that a lot of times people will stop themselves from doing something that they feel is bad
Nick Divers: especially if it is harming or disrespecting another human
Nick Divers: and especially if that person is a stranger
Nick Divers: and when it comes to bombs and guns i think people freeze up even more
duncanqskiles: yeah but it was for self-preservation
Nick Divers: hold on
Nick Divers: sorry im in the middle of trying to burn a reel
Nick Divers: but
Nick Divers: self-preservation is a weird concept
Nick Divers: because it can happen different ways
Nick Divers: ill explain in a sec
duncanqskiles: i'll explain self-preservation in relation to human nature, just let me burn these dvds
