It always seems far away, until it hits home
Hey everyone. Today's post is a bit more serious than others in the past. I received word a few days ago that one of my friends over in Iraq has been very critically injured. His name is Kyle Daggett. I came up in High School with this guy and I hate to see something like this happen to a great guy like him. Apparently his convoy was hit my an RPG. Kyle is said to be the only survivor of the whole ordeal. Now he is in Germany getting medical attention. As far as I know he has all but two broken ribs, a shattered jaw, possibly head trauma. from the sound of it, it doesn't sound fatal, but its going to be a long road for everyone moving forward. We all need to be here for him every step of the way. Everyone, if you can, say a prayer for him even if you don't believe in god. I think the guy needs all the help he can get.
Number 40 is Kyle and hes standing next to a non wheelchaired Diaz number 72
Finals…
Sorry all I'm sure you have been going nuts without hearing from ol' Diaz. As most of you know its finals season here aat ASU so its just been hectic here. Bad Times for sure, but there is a silver lining. You see its almost time for Diaz's Summer Kick Off Party! May 17th at casa de Diaz. Anyone is welcome to make an appearance and partake in the partay...yes I know that was very lame. Again sorry about the sporatic updates but thats just how its gonna be until finals are over... deal with it! have a good one everyoneCrazyness in Christian Form
For the past two days on the beautiful campus of ASU I have found my way into the raging crowds around the crazy ass christian people. Dont get me wrong, if your christian I completely respect that and more power to ya, but these people are the very abrasive and just ass hole Christians. They are the most hateful people that I have ever seen, and I just cant figure out for the life of me why they come to our campus to preach this crap. No body cares about it, but unfortunately its just too entertaining not to jump in and argue with the idiots. I've aquired some very fun footage which is here down below. give it a looksie. Heres a tease, and the rest of them are in the Vid Clips page
A Case of the Tuesdee’s
Hey guys how goes it with everyone today? I gotta say I'm feeling rather slow today. The fact that its about 6:30 in the morning may have something to do with that, but I digress. So I am pleased to see that I am actually getting a few hits on this site of mine, and a couple video views as well. Its certainly more than I thought I was going to get. I'm getting ready to up the ante around here. I just gotta go out and grab some video editing software so that I can put a little bit of production into these blogs and video clips. So stay tuned for that.
So Saturday I went over to my buddy Tim's place for a fun and exciting blacklight party. Needless to say it was a pretty good time. I ran into celebrities such as Coach G with is glowing tuxedo shirt, and N8 the Gr8 and couple of John P. Rando's that probably thought that I was clown shoes. After sitting and pontificating with my homies we came up with the idea for a new bit. "Ask a Cripple" now I've called for people to start sending in questions but to be honest, I feel like I'm talking to Helen Keller. So lets get on it people! send me some questions. They can be funny, they can be serious, lets try not to make them too insulting, but I will accept all questions.
Forgetting Sarah Marshall…
Hey guys, Its been a hell of a day. I woke up at 4:30 this morning to get ready for the Pat Tillman run down in Tempe. Now I'm not too much of a morning person...especially that early in the morning. So how about starting the day off with a movie review. I obviously thought it was a good idea. so here it is! So after naturally getting a late start I had to haul ass down to Tempe to pick up my good friend Steph. After one wrong turn and a couple mile route to my parking area, we made it to the race, but not without a little discussion. Me and Steph contemplate the necessity of spending money on presidential campaigns. Now keep in mind when watching this, I have no more knowledge than the average Joe. So if my statements are incorrect then I'm just an idiot. The race was pretty intense. Me and Steph made a great team. I helped to pace her, and she helped to push me. So it all worked out really nicely. We ran 4.2 Miles in 39 minutes. I'd say for a pair who did nothing to prepare for the race, we did a damn good job! There were a few places in the race where I had some trouble. Mostly just the uphills. Im proud to say that even though I did get some help from Steph, I did do 99% of the race all on my lonesome. The race ended inside the football stadium at the 42 yard line. I was dying by the end of the thing. It was bad enough that it had to end on and uphill slope, but also since it ended on the field, I had to roll across the entire field. needless to say that I was inching along until the end. Yeah so with that under my belt I'm just trying to rest until i go out tonight.Snack and Soda Madness!
So I got my Snack and Soda Show t-shirt today in the mail. Tonight I will be supporting my favorite snack show by donning the uniform of a true fat man!A Year Ago Today…
So its been one year since the Virginia Tech Massacre and I just wanted to take some time out to send some love to all the families and people affected by this tragedy. Theres no excuse for something like this to happen and its horrible that it did. One year later it doesnt seem like much has changed. More recently an Illinois college had a similar incident happen as well. Its hard to beleive that this kind of thing is allowed to keep happening. I want to send love out to the vicitims and families of those affected by the Illinois incident as well. Today we get a twofer for video blogs so go check those outLots goin on today!
A lot of new stuff hitting the site today. Got video blogs up, some clips from various stuff in the past, Bio section is up for anyone curious about how I came to be who I am today, and I'm still working to get more stuff up here. I want to make this site as entertaining as I can to you the viewer and on that note I am certainly not above taking constructive criticism as long is it only that. If you have any suggestions for me you can reach me by email at VDiaz_72@hotmail.com or on AIM VDiaz 72 P.S. Big ups to Drippy for the header on the site (My take on the Calvin pissing on things) I could not agree more with the little handicapped guys pissing location, and big ups for Shampoomaster for helpin me out with the Life of Diaz banner on the Bio page. Love, DiazHere’s a little blast from the past.
AH its gettin close to summer and swimming season. As of yesterday the heat is on! I'm pretty sure the temperature was comparable to Tattooine. I can only imagine what this is gonna be like in the middle of the summer. I better get my sandcrawler ready. But heres a few refreshing videos that both will instill jealousy and a knee slap!
