Spell it like you mean it

Why is it that a spelling bee makes it to prime time and waterskiing is restricted to (at best) the ION Life network that is shown in about 14 houses across the US.


*note the state name is missspelled* (well played Scripps)



Or ESPN shows hours of poker instead of actual sports. (someone needs to explain to them that their name says they are a SPORTS NETWORK!!!!)






OR FISHING, REALLY...FREAKING FISHING...AND YOU CAN'T THROW WATERSKIING A BONE AND GIVE US 30 MINS AT 3 AM???

Well actually it might be on then, but I would never know as by 3 AM I way to busy sleeping* and dreaming sweet dreams**.

*at the strip club
**getting my ass kicked by a bouncer for getting a bit to touchy

oh and here is the round 9 words*** from the Scripps National Spelling Bee and the definitions****

    What a coincidence- I'm enjoying a grisaille right now. Which would be quite delicious with a guayabera...

    Little known fact: guayabera got it's name from Yogi Bear's gay cousin.
