Resolve right now to longer be a stool pigeon in 2019 but rather:

Do What You Love

Love What You Do

Sad to hear via email my friend’s little monkey is not feeling well. That sucks. I can sympathize with the ailing child as my tummy hurts a bit too…today I made 20 chicken nuggets and sat down with them to watch HBO’s 4 hour Elvis documentary: The Searcher.

Everything goes back to normal; no more Christmas specials or Lifetime movies about romantic wishes coming true starting Tuesday January 1…so any shows you watch will be back in business as per their regular time slots. I didn’t include any of em here but they are there.

Sad to hear via email my friend’s little monkey is not feeling well. That sucks. I can sympathize with the ailing child as my tummy hurts a bit too…today I made 20 chicken nuggets and sat down with them to watch HBO’s 4 hour Elvis documentary: The Searcher.

The nuggets took me out though somewhere in the middle…I feel asleep…Elvis was skinny but when I woke up he was fat; oh snap. Where’s the remote?

I have ESPN’s 20 hour Basketball: A Love Story I kinda wanna knock it off in one full day; with the remaining time I have during my Christmas break.

So not doing 20 nuggets that day…that day is work. Gonna start 2019 off with some wisdom!

THANK YOU for taking the time to listen to My Pal Sammy Episode 1. This is a short podcast mini-series to keep me occupied during the Christmas break. An experiment if you will.

The second episode is up. Wanted to get the 3rd up before 2018 expired but it doesn’t appear like that’ll happen. Emphasis on break…as in Christmas break. The series is meant to capture some of my thoughts about what I’ve been consuming since this is my prime TV watching time.

What will not make the cut, however, is the following observation…

Had a unprompted moment of reflection about my life…the direction it’s going and the choices I’ve made.

But not the Brexit feelings you’re thinking off. They’re still modern feelings though.

Every Christmas break I pantlessly sit and watch and absorb a lot of pop culture (books, comic books, tv shows and movies) and then I have tea and I think a lot and I write a lot so this time I’m recording a handful of My Pal Sammy episodes; this is my Captain’s Log…a record of some of the pop culture I’ve been consuming and some of the stuff I’ve been thinking about over my 2018 Christmas Break.

Listen here or click on the handy dandy download link.

Tonight…Boxing Day 2018 shortly after midnight and as I sip my tea I’m thinking about Thanos. This topic was prompted by watching Avengers: Infinity War (which premiered on Netflix on Christmas Day).

It’s also Boxing Day so eh…why not and I quote Fight Club.

Thanks for listening.

Kobe Bryant’s The Mamba Mentality

Driven from Within by Michael Jordan

the movie Whiplash

Eminem’s song The Ringer

Thanks for listening.
