Jake Ryan or Cherry Ride.
On Sunday nights LP hangs out with Cherry and the Aussie and watches bad TV on VH1. I'm really not into it, so I get to stay home and watch Sunday Night Baseball by myself. Well last night's game was cancelled due the death of one of the Cardinals' pitchers. Very sad. So I watched movies. While I was sitting on the couch watching a double feature of "Fever Pitch" and "Sixteen Candles" I was thinking about all of these subjects I could write about this week. Tons of things... my brain was going a million miles an hour yet I did not write any of them down. It was hard to pull my eyes away from two great movies that I have seen a trillion times.On my walk to work this morning (without my iPod since it died) I was trying to figure out what topic I would be writing about today. Most of my ideas from last night were coming back to me... my brain is still working. This all led to me think about why I write this blog... I am sure I was talking to myself. I know the reasons why I write, but the reason I started a blog was because of Cherry Ride. He was My Nacho back then. Cherry's blog was the first blog I really got into. And it was Cherry who encouraged me to write more. And it was also Cherry who got us Liar's Clubbers together. There would be no 5 of 9er without Cherry (for good or bad).
Well, I just want to say I have missed the Cherry Ride these past few weeks. I understand people need to take a break from things in their lives. We all take breaks from our blogs since it helps us not burn out, or get fired from our jobs. But tomorrow is a new month and I hope this means a new entry from Cherry. I miss his blogs... they seem to make life a little bit better. Thanks Cherry getting me to start writing, I hope you start up again too.
Side note: Hope everyone noticed my new profile photo. The last one showed too much of my sensitive side. This one is more me.

I love Clifford the Big Red Dog ... I read all about his silly adventures to my students whenever I get the chance.
I'm glad you're writing too. Cherry is too good a writer to not come back. He'll be back.
"Who'd marry her?"
"Mister T."
"Well how do you know it's female?"
"It's got tits"
"Well what makes it different from a regular female"
"It's got 3 of them"
"You're not the one who has to sleep under a China man named after a duck's dork"
God damn I love that movie.
And Cherry Ride.
I love 16 Candles & Cherry Ride. This post is an excellent combination.
