Due to constant insistence of my brother this is my first blog, and ironically it is about him. You see recently he committed a heinous crime against humanity-and by humanity I mean me. For the holidays Jason and his family come home to MI for the Raitz holiday gala, and needing a room for solitary confinement they sleep in my domicile, which is all fine and dandy, I literally can sleep anywhere. On Dec 25th these Raitzs were scheduled to leave, I had said my farewell departings earlier for I was at work during the departal time. Upon returning home from a gruelling day of employment, I proceed to return my room back to its natural homeostasis, and that is when I noticed something strikingly peculiar; there were holes in my dvd collection. Yes, I was certain that some movies were missing, which really grinds my gears. After questioning my current roommates, Bob and Shell, who were ignorant to the apparent atrocity which had occurred under there noses, I called my trustworthy brother whom I was sure would not strike me in such a way. His response; "Uh, yea I took 'em. I meant to leave a note." Well how thoughtful of you Jason, and when he saw that I became indignant he responded "I'll send them home with mom and dad next weekend." Which by the way he didn't. So here I am in MI with an incomplete dvd collection and my brother who resides in IL with like 12 of my dvds. When I confronted him, via text message, about neglecting to send them home with the visiting parentals, he felt it necessary to call me an ass, and to top that said he was currently rolling around naked with them. Needless to say our relationship had suffered from his lack of tact, courtesy, and breaking of my trust. In fact I am not sure how we will move past the events of that fate full Christmas day. All I can say is that at least God can forgive you, but as for me...
All that to say that I'm actually moving in with Jason and the family in three weeks and will then be reunited with my lost dvds.

I tried to stop him! Honest I did! See you in a few weeks. The kids are excited to have Uncle Jim stay with us!
My dearest brother, should we start a list? A list of the stuff you ruined of mine? Shall we? No, you know why? I will tell you. Cause I don't care and I am teaching you a huge lesson. Let go of the dvd's, let go. By the way. Loved Old School, Office Space, Dodgeball, Mr and Mrs Smith and the list goes on.

its about freakin time you posted something. oh yeah, and i have some of your vhs collection still. i am actually sitting next to my lovely wife who is also leaving you a message. hope you love chicago. o yeah, isaac still asks about you. its real cute.
Wow. I believe that Jesus talks about this as one of the unpardonable sins. jason's world will never be the same after watching old school.
this is a very good reason to move to Chicago. What will you be doing there in order to make some bling?
Well, you did it...you finally got The James.com (well, kinda). Glad you're joining the blogging world.
Now, if only you were to break your marathon paragraph into readable smaller paragraphs, I might visit again. :)
Welcome to the blogosphere.
you realize that by moving in w/ your brother gives him the opportunities to enjoy rolling around in more of your movies. they may be safer in MI. at least right now, only 12 suffer.
Alas, the long awaited blog entry. I laughed hard too. Can you say RSS feeds???
peace, joe
