It's Friday again and you know what that means - another BYB Express. Don't think of it as getting less blog. Just think of it getting more time to bitch about Obama.
F My Life Moment of the DayToday, I woke up lying on top of my car, naked, in the rain, with about seven people laughing at me. According to my mom, I've started sleepwalking. She found me in the middle of the night, but left me out there because she thought it was funny. FML

Bron to the Big D and I do Mean Dallas
The hottest new Lebron James recruitment website is lebrontothemavs.com. The rap song, which accompanies an array of reasons Lebron should come to Dallas, is actually pretty catchy. I have no desire to see Lebron play for a contender in the West and I actually found myself singing this in the shower earlier.
Texts From Last Nite Moment of the Day(925): its a long story involving jim bean, an owl, and a knife
AP
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -A North Carolina waitress is out of a job after griping on her Facebook page about the $5 tip she got from a couple who sat at their table for three hours. The waitress says the customers kept her at work an hour after she was supposed to clock out.
The Charlotte Observer reported Monday that 22-year-old Ashley Johnson felt slighted after waiting on the couple at Brixx Pizza.
So she blasted the couple on Facebook, calling them cheap and mentioning the restaurant by name.
Brixx officials told Johnson a couple of days later that she was being fired because she violated a company policy banning workers from speaking disparagingly about customers and casting the restaurant in a bad light on a social network.
Johnson says she has apologized to Brixx and is looking for a new job.
This story just goes to show how powerful Facebook is. Its even destructed of the ages old routine of bitching about one's job. Prostitution is said be the world's oldest profession and I guarantee even in the caveman days the hookers were complaining about the johns and the pimps. But they didn't carve their complaints on rocks. You can deny words. When you post it on Facebook its out there. There's no getting it back. But I do empathize with theis girl as I encounter many shitty tippers in my line of work.
On this day in…1881 – The American Red Cross is established by Clara Barton.
1924 – University of Chicago students Richard Loeb and Nathan Leopold, Jr. murder 14-year-old Bobby Franks in a "thrill killing".
1927 – Charles Lindbergh touches down at Le Bourget Field in Paris, completing the world's first solo nonstop flight across the Atlantic Ocean.
1932 – Bad weather forces Amelia Earhart to land in a pasture in Derry, Northern Ireland, and she thereby becomes the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean.
1979 – White Night riots in San Francisco following the manslaughter conviction of Dan White for the assassinations of George Moscone and Harvey Milk.
Plus, Atlanta Braves manager Bobby Cox was born in 1941, senator Al Franken was born in 1951, serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer was born in 1960, and the Notorious BIG was born in 1972. But most importantly original A-Teamer B.A. Baracus aka Mr. T was born in 1952. I pity the fool that don't show Mr. T some love.
Take Me Out To the 90's

I love Minor Leage Baseball. Cheaper beer, shorter lines and convenient parking. But most of all I love crazy promotions. I checked the Minor League website and found what would be my favorite this month, 90's Nite.

Mad Tight '90s Night: The Remix featuring Alfonso Ribeiro — May 20
The Grizzlies have made a habit of staging blowout celebrations of decades past, including 2008's "Totally Rad '80s Night" featuring Karate Kid villain Billy Zabka and last year's "Mad Tight '90s Night" with Dennis "Mr. Belding" Haskins from Saved by the Bell. They are once again drawing from that plentiful well of Clinton-era nostalgia on Thursday, welcoming Alfonso Ribeiro to Chukchansi Park. Ribeiro is best known for his work on the sitcom Fresh Prince of Bel Air, playing sycophantic junior Republican (and excitable Tom Jones fan) Carlton Banks. Ribeiro will throw out the first pitch, sign autographs, pose for pictures and participate in between-inning games and entertainment. Perhaps this will include a re-enactment of famous Fresh Prince scenes. The "Apache Dance," anyone?
Personally I'd rather see Screech and Kriss Kross in a no holds barred death match than Alfonso Ribiero but I'll take what I can get. Maybe they can get him and his 'Silver Spoons' castmate Ricky Shroeder to bare knuckle box for $100. As long as he does the Carlton Dance when he wins then its worth it.
