Super Bowl Tickets...OMFG!!!

I know I have been away. I've been BUSY! I took a six month hiatus from writing, but I'm back...sort of. I want to make this a short little rant about the gouge-iness of tickets. Any tickets. All tickets, but in particular this week, Super Bowl Tickets. See below.
U.S. Bank Stadium Seating Chart...(You'll need a bank loan to purchase seats here)
I have marked three locations which would be suitable to watch an indoor sporting event without any discomfort. I prefer second level mid-field, but decided to pick two places that are popular and the third place was to prove a point.

If you noticed the circled seating area that is available for purchase for the Sunday, February 4th, 2018 Super Bowl game between the Cheating Patriots and the Wonderful Eagles (Can you guess for who I am a fan?), It's noted as a awful deal. At $7,245 per seat, you bet your a$$ it's a bad deal. Of course, it's the first of a price gouging trifecta. I noted the other two with a square and a triangle. Also, I failed to mention that it costs nearly $15,000 for two people for these shite seats. That clown is out of his ferking mind.

For the three pointed feller, you only have to sacrifice two to three month's rent, or the kid's orthodontics, but you get a great end zone seat. You might even get on TV. It could be yours all for the price is right. Your guess, $1,000. No? $2,000? Getting warmer. $3,788 per seat. Now, if you were to take your spouse, if he/she likes football, that is, or your BFF Football buddy, that comes to a little over $7.500. So, about 6 months rent and forget that pricey Charter School, the kids are going to public school.

You can get the square for an affordable(?), great deal of $12,000. Yes, you read that correctly. 12 Forking Thousand Dollars. $24,000 for two. For a 4 hour event. Yes, it only comes around once a year. And yes, your team (my team) is in it and hasn't been in it for a dozen years. But think about spending that coin, and your team loses. WTF? Of course, it is our time. We will prevail and stomp the crap out of Brady and the Pats. However, what a shiitake way to piss away enough money that you could take the family to Jamaica, Mexico and the UK for three weeks. I'd rather watch it on my 60" HD TV. (Hint: Which is exactly where I will be Sunday evening.)

So, to all you jackholes who are paying those prices to watch a game in a boring, crappy city in Minnesota (I can say that because I visited Minneapolis several years ago and was not that impressed. The Mall of America was cool, but it isn't in Minne-hapless.) and to the Mother Forkers who think they should pay for their new car, kid's college tuition or a vacation to Jamaica, Mexico and the UK for three weeks on the sale of one or two game tickets, shame on you, shame, shame, shame on you. Oh, and Go Frank yourself, you greedy bastages.

Like I said, short, but not so sweet. Man, I hate American Greed-ism. Ferking Donald Trump is to blame, somehow. I like to say, I'm back, baby, but I can't. I'm BUSY. But hope to deal some trash in 2018. I'm going to get political up in here. Something I swore I wouldn't do, but I fibbed. No Russians were involved in my fib. No politicians were harmed. Dammit! I'll try harder next time. TTFN, amigos.

How The New Mexican Government And Prison System Failed Its People

Anyone who knows me knows I like mystery and crime stories, especially true crime. So, I am a huge fan and viewer of the Investigation Discovery network. I view many programs and have my favorites. One show I recently stumbled upon was "Surviving Evil" hosted by the stunning actress, Charisma Carpenter , who herself a crime survivor. She and two friends suffered at the hands of a violent serial rapist and police officer Henry Hubbard, Jr. on San Diego's Torrey Pines State Beach in 1991. I don't want to go on about her, her surviving her attack or even the ID program, which airs Thursdays at 9 pm and re-airs throughout the week and is available On Demand. Well, actually, I do want to speak about one episode from the current season (the 3rd season), but not the show as much as how the law failed to truly punish the perpetrator of this crime. The show titled "Escaping The Arroyo" interviews the one surviving victim and tells the horrific story about two whi

My First Blog

Unless I'm already mentally or emotionally stirred up I find it difficult to start anything.  Be it a rant, a conversation or a writing.  I'm sure if I don't get bored or disillusioned I will have something interesting or controversial to say.  I might even drop an occasional F bomb.   As this is my first outing, I will insert many random thoughts that clearly will lack continuity or proper linkage.  I will sound like a mental patient or someone suffering from Alzheimer's.  For instance, tomorrow is my birthday.  I turn 55.  Who cares, right?  Why are we so self-absorbed with ourselves?  I know from my POV I want to rule the world, be famous and shag any girl I desire.  I also know, as I'm sure you do too, that that's just not going to happen...ever.  But without these little dreams/daydreams I'd find it more difficult to crawl out of bed most mornings.   Random thought #2:  How do people quote lines by famous writers as if they just read the story wh

The JetBlue Fashion Police Takes A Bite Out Of ?????

I'll start off by saying that I have no love for JetBlue or any airliner for that matter. But with their latest allowance of employee empowerment to make fashion decisions or to determine what is proper flight attire solidifies why I will never fly with them. They have permanently joined the "I-won't-fly" ranks of American Airlines, Delta and Frontier Airlines. Though I find the young woman's outfit more suited for trolling Walmart or lounging around the house, there is nothing illicit, illegal or obscene to warrant being forced into a wardrobe change prior to boarding her Boston to Seattle flight or to suffer being removed from the flight altogether. If she passed through security that should be good enough. Also, this girl's ass makes that shite work. Work it honey. I'm a little sick and tired of reading about the morality police. People take their job duties beyond the job description into the realm where no customer service personnel should ever
