A Guest Post by Donald Glista, Esquire...



Frank’s Red Hot sauce anyone? When I was a young whippersnapper, I would leap from my chair in joy to grab the luscious bottle of Frank’s and delightfully continue to pour at least a quarter of the bottle on any form of rations in front of me. Today, however, I am now older and wiser and live in San Diego. If there is one thing I have learned from my tenure in this beautiful city, it is that Frank’s has become almost obsolete from my vocabulary. I now turn to the enchanting bottle of Tapatio. If you are yet to try Tapatio then add it to your 2009 New Year’s resolution. Tapatio is a full bodied sauce. It is well balanced with a touch of heat and elegance. This sauce is perfect for the consumer who desires flavor over heat. While at the same time, do not shy away if you desire heat because I guarantee it will clear your sinus passages by the end of your meal.

Now at this point, if you consider yourself a connoisseur of hot sauce as I personally do, then you may be skeptical. Let me assure you however, that I have been around the block. My days of education in the subject of Hot Sauce began when I was a young boy. I have tried almost every bottle you may find in your local grocery store. Frank’s Red Hot; Cholula; Red Rooster; Dave’s Insanity Sauce (not recommended unless a practical joke is involved); Tabasco (all forms including Habanera, Chipotle, and original); Sri Racha etc. Anyone who knows me can vouch that when I eat any type of food, I swathe my sustenance with so much hot sauce that I begin to perspire under my eyes so much that it is comparable to the glorious waters succumbing to the magnificent force of the Niagara Falls. It is a vice which plagues my life and makes meals particularly embarrassing especially when I have the privilege of escorting a woman to dinner. However, I feel my pallet is not fulfilled until the beads of sweat begin to flow from pours as steadily as a Kenyan running a low altitude marathon.

In conclusion, Tapatio ranks supreme in my book. Personally, a breakfast burrito is neither the same nor complete without Tapatio both soaking its contents and dripping from the tortilla which wraps its delicious insides. As Bob Dylan says, “The times they are a changin’.” As this country is continuing its time of change with President Barack Obama taking office, I believe it is a time for change in all of us. Make this year and the years to come, a time when we all have the courage to make the change from whatever hot sauce it is that you have stood by for so many years, to the full bodied and well balanced flavor of Tapatio. Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce to you Tapatio... no comments

Why the $2 bill? Because that's how much his hookers cost. Not because he's cheap, it's because he lost everything else on a horse or at a blackjack table. Keep a Daly in your back pocket to get yourself a nice hooker at the end of the bad night or in the middle of a 5 day bender. Check out this video of him playing a round of golf without a shirt or shoes and probably a half bottle of johnny walker and a carton of marlboro reds in him.

All my teachers and all of the presidents talked about the "american dream". Now I know what they were talking about all along. His daily regimen consists of a 18 holes in the morning, hittin up a lunch buffet at a near by strip club, hitting drives off beer cans, drinkin scotch, eating pain killers like skittles and gambling away everything he has. He is the epitome of a man's man and is truly living the american dream. In his spare time he figured out a cure for bruised ribs...the sun. no comments

For those of you who are fans of the ABC television series Lost than I'm sure you know all about the 2 hour season premier of season 5 last evening. Unfortunately for me, I didn't have much of a choice whether Lost was in my future for Wednesday night television or not.

The only thing that filled the air in our beach house yesterday, minus the smell of some fine herb was the noise pollution I heard out of "Stupid Cenky." All I could hear from the moment he walked in the door was Lost diarrhea spilling out of his mouth. 

I have only seen a handful of episodes of Lost but that's all that I needed to realize that this show was GARBAGE (see SNAKE-ISMS below). 

In the little time I've wasted watching this show I've seen a Polar Bear attack the survivors of Oceanic Flight 815 on a deserted island in the Pacific Ocean. Dumb, dumb, dumb!

I have also noticed that there is an invisible "smoke" creature that roams the jungle, i.e. The Predator. Way to use your imagination ABC.

And finally, please stop the flashbacks, immediately! If you want to attract new viewers to your program than stop all the confusion, It's painful to watch.

For those of you who enjoy Lost, I'm going to quote Larry David, the creator of the HBO series Curb Your Enthusiasm, "GOOOOD FA YOUUUU!" But when I think of Lost the only thing I can do is spit and kick the air.

Is it out of the question to believe that Lou Brown is the right man to bring the Cleveland Indians to their first World Series title in 60 years?

After a disappointing 81-81 season in 2008 the Cleveland Indians have been busy this offseason signing former Chicago Cubs closer Kerry Wood to fill the meteor sized hole in the bullpen. This allows Indians fans to forget about the likes of Joe Borowski and Bob "Two Chipotle Burritos in the Bullpen" Wickman.

The Tribe has also improved their roster via trade. Cleveland found the 3rd baseman they desperately needed in Mark Derosa of the Chicago Cubs. They also received Joe Smith, a  submarine-style reliever and Luis Valbuena, a 2nd base prospect in a 3 team trade involving the NY Mets and Seattle Mariners.

The Indians moves this offseason have not only given them the talent, but the depth to push for the AL Central title again in 2009. This makes the leash on Eric Wedge even shorter, leading me to believe that if the Tribe indeed happen to break our hearts again that Lou Brown is the man in 2010.

Eric Wedge is a career .233 batter with 5 Major League Home Runs and 12 RBI's. With career numbers such as those you have to believe David Delucci and Eric Wedge have analyzed and compared one another this offseason. Im certain they have a lot in common. 

You may be asking what Lou Brown can bring to the Indians organization that Eric Wedge cannot?

Lou can help "Pronk" from swinging the bat like Pat Thompson in 2009, like he helped Perdo Cerrano handle the breaking ball against "The Duke" in the one game divisional playoff game against the NY Yankees. 

Next, only Lou Brown was wise enough to move Ricky "Wild Thing" Vaughn to the closer role with the Tribe's bullpen being in schambles, much like the 2008 season in C-Town. 

Finally, after breaking down film and watching Willie "Mays" Hayes score from 2nd base on the "Called Shot" bunt to defeat the Yankees in the bottom of the 9th there is no chance that Kenny Lofton would have been held at 3rd base trailing 3-2 in the top of 7th inning of game 7 in Fenway Park.

Now this is all just speculation but if Lou Brown were to receive a call from the Cleveland Indians before the 2010 season I'm sure he'd hang up the phone with the guy on the other line asking about some white walls.

This past week, Zampini had been getting on my nerves because he thinks I am in love with Tim Tebow because I admitted the kid is good. Whatever Mike, if you can’t admit that he is good, then you obviously aren’t a fan of college football and should not be allowed to talk about or watch it. Stick to golf. Since Mike has been relentless with this issue, I have decided to fire back with something funny about Mike. Saturday afternoon Mike, the Donk and I went to the Las Vegas Athletic Club to play some racquetball. Now when I was lighter on my feet I was more of a challenge, but the closest game I had was a losing effort to Mike, 11-9. Whatever, a workout is a workout. When we returned home, we decided that we would order some pizza and wings and watch the rest of the football game. Mike declared “Get me 6 dozen wings” as he thought that would be a sufficient amount of chicken wings to curb his appetite. Obviously no one flinched when he said that because Mike is a giant slob. So we go pick up the pizza and return home and begin to enjoy our dinner. Most had a couple slices of pizza and a fair amount of chicken wings. Mike probably had the most wings of anyone. Again, no surprise. On Mikes trip for his thirds or fourths (who can keep count), he proclaimed “I don’t really think this is a good idea”. This was in reference to him loading up on another round of wings. We just laughed as Mike returned to the table, wing in mouth and wing in fist. Sadly, when Mike went to sit at the table the poor chair decided that Mike had reached, and surpassed, his wing quota and gave up the battle. Mike 1 Chair 0, and I’m sorry to say that is a final score. Mike might not have felt so bad if I didn’t have a camera phone to capture the moment. Take a close look at the picture and you can see that while Mike was falling to the floor, he managed to hang on to the wing. Congrats Mike, I don’t know how many of us could have done that. So now our kitchen table will be set for three instead of four. Our last chair has been reduced to nothing more than fire wood at the hands of an over zealous fan of chicken wings. Rest in pieces little chair, it was a hard battle that no one could have won…




Side Note: That chair was rickety as shit and we were just waiting for it to break. I am just thankful it broke on Mike because that made my weekend.
