Russel Peters at The Punchline

Tonight I went with Steve and a couple of his friend to The Punchline to watch Russell Peters. Man, the place was packed with Indian folks. It was about 95% Indian in there tonight. The two comedians that opened for him were pretty funny, but I do not remember their names. We sat so close, literally right next to the stage. When he first came out, he asked me how I was doing. He also started his routine by talking about Asians and their love for DDR (Dance Revolution). He made a few jokes toward me throughout his routine, including asking me my name. I told him it's Sammy, and he asked if I had a chinese name. So I said Siu-Fai. He then joked "isn't that a french name? Sue Flay?" It was funny as hell. Other than the mike going out a couple of times and the gay Indian guy in the yellow sweater, the act was great and I had a blast. Below is a pic from my phone of how close I was to the stage. Sorry I did not get one of him, but we were not allowed to take pics during the show.


Oh yeah, it is Russell Peters' 37th Birthday today. So Happy Birthday Russell!

16 Weeks - Groomed

I just got home from picking up Tanner from the groomers at Petsmart. He got a bath, brushed, nails clipped and a massage. I've also bought him a new couch/bed from Walmart. It is awesome because it looks like a couch and it's the same color as my sofa. Here are pics of the groomed Tanner and his new couch.



I also went by Best Buy and bought Knocked Up. Now Tanner will lay on his couch while I'll lay on my couch and enjoy the movie.

Widow's Peak on a Dog?

As I went home this afternoon to take Tanner out for his daily potty break, I noticed something on his forehead. It looks like he has a widow's peak. His hair is usually tan, but on the top of his head there are some black hairs that forms a peak. So I took a quick snap shot of this with my camera phone. (sorry about the bad quality of the pic).



His widow's peak makes him look kind of like me. Guess he takes after his daddy. Also, I just look at the previous pics I posted that Deb took a couple of weeks ago and he did not have the peak. I guess it just turned black recently.

Microsoft Windows on Mac OS?

Today at work I finally got my iMac setup with Parallels to run Windows XP and Windows Vista. This is a pretty neat program that allow me to user both OS within Mac OSX. I am starting to really get into Mac and hope to get a certification in Mac sometime within the near future. Check out the screenshots I took of my Mac Desktop:

This is a shot of the selection menu when I open up the Parallels program and allowed to choose which Windows OS I would like to log into. Unfortunately I am unable to run both OS at the same time because it will require too much memory usage and bog down my machine. I found this out the hard way.


This is a screenshot of the Parallels running Windows XP on the iMac. There are three ways to you can view the Windows. You can have it as a single window, full screen or coherence. As you can see I have mine set up as coherence so I can see both the Windows taskbar and the OSX taskbar.


This final shot is of the Parallels running Windows Vista on my iMac. As you can see I also have it set to coherence view. After messing with the iMac, I am now really considering getting me a new MacBook for my personal use, I just wish it was not so expensive. But I guess if you want quality, you got to pay for it.

Football Season is Here Finally!

Sorry I have not posted in a couple of weeks. Here is a rundown of the past couple of weeks.

Tanner:

I took Tanner to the Vet for a check-up on August 31st. He weighed in at 11 lbs and has probably put on a couple of more since then. He got a couple of booster shots and his first Rabies shot. I also got him his monthly fleas and heart worms meds. He has been doing great since then. Click here for the most recent pics of him that Debbie took that weekend.


Football:
College: Football season started couple weekends ago too. Wah and Paul came down to watch the first weekends of college football. We spent the weekend sitting around and eating. During game time, we sat back drinking beer and eating wings from Wing Zone. Unfortunately, my Vols were beaten by Cal 45-31. But it's okay, because UGA was beaten by the Gamecocks 16-12 the following weekend. Let just hope USC get knocked down by Nebraska this weekend and the Vols take the Gators this coming weekend. Go Vols!
Pros: NFL started this past weekend and let's just say: Falcons sucks! But who knows, it was game one and we still have a long season ahead. Hopefully they can get it together and win some games. After their play this weekend though, it looks like the Dirty Birds are in for a long season.
Fantasy: With the start of the NFL season, mark the start of our yearly Fantasy Football season. I have a good feeling about my team this season and hopefully I do not finish at the bottom. But after weekend, I went 0-3 (3 Leagues), which does not look too good. But I believe I will bounce back this weekend.
Conclusion:
As you can see, the past two weeks have not been too exciting for me, except for the start of the football season. Also, this past weekend Wah and I have gotten our airline tickets for our annual trip to LA. So we'll see you west coast folks in December. Until next time, GO VOLS and GO FALCONS!
