The 78-square-foot Apartment.

Now...I'm not a square foot snob, by any means. But I do like things like...rooms. Call me a needy, but I don't like to share my bathroom with people who don't pay for my rent. Meet Luke Clark Tyler. He is an architect, that has decided to live in a hallway. Why? Because he is lazy. That's what I get from this 7 minute video.

Yes...NY is a bitch when it comes to finding a place, but it's also a double edged sword. If you allow yourself to be taken advantaged off.....it will do that to0. A grown man living in an over sized coffin is not ok. I dont care how hipster you think you are, your skinny jeans should not be sharing a living space with your microwave = radiation crotch. Around 3:30 he states that he is a vegetarian. And suddenly it all made sense. Then he said he was paying $800 for it. And I was confused again.

If I lived there, I would be paying rent in blowpops and high fives (maybe even low fives). And there sure as hell wouldn't be any guests (overnight or otherwise). But I wouldn't caught up like that.

P.S. My issue is the amount of money he is paying for that space....not the space itself (though I think the space is utterly ridiculous aswell).

This is a "person not of the day" post. Did you see this (warning, imagery not for the faint of heart or stomach)? Now...I have got not love of what matadors do to animals in the name of culture- though I would go to a bull fight if I were in spain- but what happened to this famous matador (???), is ridic. And then he lived through it. There's video on the link too.

Meet Granny O'Grim.

Granny is the star of a short film that was written and performed by Kathleen O’Rourke, directed by Nicky Phelan and produced by Brown Bag Films in 2008. It has screened in numerous festivals and won several awards. It...I mean she was recently nominated for an Oscars. She is probably (hopefully) a little darker- scorned by a life of rage and misfortune, but hysterical and deserves whatever accolades come her way. Check out her little Christmas warning below.

"....to destroy you." If you didnt laugh, you have no sense of humor.

Granny O Grimm maybe a little old, but she has her own website and is on Facebook and twitter. This is the only time I condone twitter use. Go forth wisely.

Spot Light: No One puts Shani Davis in a Corner.

Shani Davis. He was already the first black Winter Olympian to win individual gold in 2006. He became the first American man to defend an Olympic speed skating title. He is now the second most-decorated American man in Olympic speed skating. He has won 2 individual olympic medals. He has had some problems with...the Olympic Committee and the US speed skating Team. Some screamed racism, Shani has another view......

"I've lived 27 years of my life and I have self worth and I know what I am as a person," Davis said on the eve of the Vancouver Games. "I don't need anyone to define that for me if they're paying attention to me once every four years, or just these two weeks of the Olympics.

"I already have my self-definition, and I'm quite happy with it."

Person of the day returns to give kudos to Conan's zinger. I actually witnessed this live (via tv). And my girlfriend actually gasped and gave a "not acceptable" look...which means that it was a reallyREALLY good joke. He devoted like 2 segments to getting at her.

True Freindship comes in Neon Yellow.

It's been awhile since I've done a person of the day. Meet Private Kevin Elliott. He wore a dress to his friends funeral. Why? Well, he bet his friend that whoever outlived the other would wear a dress to the others funeral. A bet. How many people do you know that would honor a bet so completely?

"Private Kevin Elliott and his friend, Barry Delaney, had agreed that whoever survived the other should wear a dress to the dead man’s funeral. Mr Delaney duly fulfilled the pledge as a tribute to Private Elliott, who was killed aged 24 while on foot patrol in the southern province of Helmand on August 31"

I know, I know. It's morbid as hell. But it also makes me think. Do I have any friends that would do this for me? I should hope so....but hopefully they would show up in something a little bit more classy. And in a neutral hue.

A little NBA for Today.

Ewwww....Reggie Miller got called out on several public beaches last weekend for "going after married women." Allegedly, disgruntled  husband, Alex Von Furstenberg had enough of Reggie calling his wife-to-be up. So that makes Alex today's person of the day. He's got balls, especially after Reggie threatened his life (another allegedly). I'm no fan of Miller. His kept my 90s all star Knicks team from greatness one to many times. But I have a question higher on the totem pole of need-to-knows to address. Does anyone know if the "V" in Von is visible in initial form?Like how my initials are SW. Is this dude Alex's "AVF"? I have actually been wondering whether people with pre-last names (like) "Von" got initialed or not... for about a month now. Anyone? Answers? 

And in other news, Stephen Marbury falls victim to youtube. And that's sad. 

Very sad. It's like he lost a bet or something.

This Can't be good for the Wrists.

Figuring out todays person of the day was difficult. It was a toss up between the 9-year-old who organized a Gay Rights Rally and Masanobu Sato, the winner of San Fransisco's 9th Annual Masturbate-a-thon. If you haven't figured it out by now...I picked the later. 

This is Masanobu's 2nd time winning. Last year he set the record with 9 hours and 33 minutes, but this year he held on til 9 hours and 58 minutes. This dude is straight from Japan, apparently has a girlfriend and competes on the regular...

Do I really need to make a joke here? Should I even bother to make a Something About Mary reference? Im not even sure if this is a good thing. It's like knowing how to fry food really well. Yeah, it's an accomplishment...but in the end, not only is it useless but it's self inflicting harm. It One step forward, 85 back. It's like the vow of celibacy priest take. Sure...it bring you closer to God, but it also bring you closer to pedophilia. It's a catch 22. I'll go further. It's like coming in first in a foot race, but all your opponents don't have legs. It's not a win. No one else is really playing. 10 hours? 

My advice to this dude...you have to get a real job (or atleast a good blow job).

How To: GET OUT OF JURY DUTY (or get arrested).

Meet Erik Slye. He is today's person of the day. He is from Montana (???). He was summoned to serve jury duty. And he was having none of it. So he wrote the judicial government back basically telling them to cut it the f*ck out.

Apparently you morons didn't understand me the first time. I CANNOT take time off from work. I'm not putting my family's well being at stake to participate in this crap. I don't believe in our "justice" system and I don't want to have a goddam thing to do with it. Jury duty is a complete waste of time. I would rather count the wrinkles on my dogs balls than sit on a jury. Get it through your thick skulls. Leave me the F--k alone.

This dude has some serious balls. He did almost get locked up. And here I thought I was the man some years ago, when I was in college and got called upon to serve my country in Massachusetts. I completely ignored them. I considered myself a New Yorker and after some quick math, decided that I did not qualify to be subject to someone elses crime. Ok, I admit it....I was scared as hell that I was going to get escorted by the secret service into a helicopter and shipped off to Askarban (wait...imagination mix up). But anyway, in the end...he was excused from serving. That's a win in my book. 

I kinda want to shake his hand. But I will never find myself in Montana...so that wont ever happen. Kudos from afar.

Be a White Sox Fan...save a Bear.

Today's person of the day is Ashley Swendsen. She was hiking (problem number one) somewhere in Colorado Springs. She is 6 months pregnant. She was chased by a brown bear.

"I heard a rustle. I looked behind me and it was a bear--2 feet away," says Swendsen, "I freaked out and start running. It was chasing me for about 20 seconds."

She made it to the street. And then she got hit by a car. I know...it's wrong to laugh, especially with a potentially harmed fetus and all....but come on. This is like something straight from one of those spoof movies. You know right after she got stuck in the doggie door of a garage door and then someone made the door go up and it killed her. All the while, a purposely stereotypical black man with horribly sown in dreds witnesses the entire thing and says something like..."DYNOMIIITEE." Oh yeah...and Carmen Electra is involved somehow. Yes...I'm a visual man.

But anyway, the bear has since been caught and euthanized (as if it was it's fault she decided to go hiking). The car that hit Swendsen committed a hit and run. She and the unborn child are ok. Swendsen's response when she heard that the bear had to die "We're going to name the middle name of our baby, 'bear.''"

Someone has to take some responsibility here. Maybe if she didn't wear that cubs hat....

Introducing.

It's still 2009 and we here at Pros Thoughts are still continuing our efforts to make this blog as entertaining (and engaging) as possible. So, in yet another vain attempt to add value we decided to add a new guest blogger, "L". "L" is short for Laila. I hope that I didn't just give away her pen name. But if I did, it's ok....because she already jumped right in with her first post. 

No worries kids. Just like Rhe K, L for Laila has signed a waiver (cough::contract::cough) to post frequently, post openly and post non-discriminately. A few things about her so that you feel more connected.

1. Laila is in the magazine industry. Think...The Devil Wears Prada. 

2. You know the saying "Go Big or Go Home." Well...Laila never goes home. She always goes big. If there's something entertaining happening, Laila is there. And she is probably having a better time than you. Whenever we hang out, we literally compete for who is having a better time.

3. If there is a movie that people refuse to go see with me, which happens alot, Laila will go with me. 

4. Laila has the fashion game on lock. What can I say...we recruit for the betterment of the blog. 

5. Oh yeah, she also has the best taste in music. Infact, she will probably steal the blog job from me. We will see.

So, there you go. I promised you guest bloggers, and I delivered. On a side note: The best part about this entire thing is.... these "guest bloggers" have no idea that I am using them to bring down my typo/misspellings to post ratio. Mu ha ha ha. 

Now go forth and read.

I think we all need a laugh.

A Little Icing on the Cake.

Meet Neil Berrett. Neil is perhaps the nicest person I have ever met (or havn't met). He just recently gave his 2 week notice on a cake. 

"Dear Mr. Bowers,

During the past three years, my tenure at the Hunters Point Naval Shipyard has been nothing short of pure excitement, joy and whim.

However, I have decided to spend more time with my family and attend to health issues that have recently arisen. I am proud to have been part of such an outstanding team and I wish this organization only the finest in future endeavors.

Please accept this cake as notification that I am leaving my position with NWT on March 27.

Sincerely,

W. Neil berrett"

His departure from Hunters Point Naval Shipyard in San Francisco, was not only literally sweet, but his actual message was also as sugary. I just thought that I would hit you with some nice job news.
