Quote of the Day

"Nothing will be settled with a gun. Nothing will be settled with a fire bomb. And nothing will be settled with a rock...it takes no courage to get in the back of a crowd and throw a rock. Rather, it takes courage to stand up on your own two feet and look anyone straight in the eye and say, 'I will not be beaten.'"

~Thurgood Marshall

...I like it

I've Seen it All

From a very young age I have enjoyed a humorous situation. I welcome laughter in all contexts. I typically shy away from vulgar or stupid comedy because it doesn't take anything to curse and refer to body parts over and over. On the other hand...real comedy, wittiness, clever thinking, merrymaking, whatever...is priceless.

I truly appreciate smart writing and television sitcoms have helped refine my sense of humor over the years. Way back when, Leonardo throwing a piece of ice cream pizza at Michelangelo was exhilarating. Thank the heavens for man's progression.

I came across the following scene from the British sitcom, Extras, and it's funnier and funnier each time I watch it. It stars Ricky Gervais, a comic genius and mind behind the oringal BBC version of "The Office," well...just have a look.



Sure, it's kind of weird. But it's hilarious! Go watch it again and pay attention to Gervais' facial expressions as he really thinks Patrick Stewart (playing himself) is disturbed. It's so utterly random that I can't help but love it!

Randomness makes funniness. I should patent that phrase.

For now, my stories are straight up news, but I am hoping to mix in some good editorial stuff in the future.

My first article was published today. It's about four former Utah football players and how their dreams of playing in the NFL are still alive.

The Movie of My Life

So, I was thinking about who would play me, Matt Sanchez, in a movie of my life. As I pondered this question...my sights were set higher. If there was a movie of my life, who would play everyone in my life? :) With a little help from myheritage.com, my wife and my own personal discretion...I have accumulated a star-studded cast, that I am sure will do us all proud. I thought this film would be a comedy but I'm sure it would have action, drama with a documentary twist. It's a dromactentary! I tried to fit as many people as I could for this and if you don't see yourself, check out the sequel. ;)
