I haven't seen it yet. I would've gone to the midnight showing but I had to go to boot camp (to lose weight) and didn't want to stay up late.

I want to see this movie. I love Batman....I'm kinda scared of what it's going to be like though. I don't want to be disappointed. I'm afraid there's a lot of hype to it. I looked it up on rottentomatoes.com and it had a 94 percent rating which means it's A W E S O M E !

I'm sure I'll love it. I really dug Batman Begins. Hell, I've loved all of them....except Batman Forever and Batman and Robin....ugh. I wish we had control+alt+delete in real life....I would've restarted right after the release of those two movies.

Another thing is that I'm waiting because I'm afraid of the packed screenings. It seems like every time I go, there's always a bunch of loud people sitting right next to me. They never shut up and I end up annoyed throughout the whole thing.

Well, just wanted to see if anyone had seen the movie so that they could let me know what they thought of it. I'm curious.

This is a video where Mencia talks about high gas prices. He talks about how he spent 100 dollars on gas and when he got into his car, they tank wasn't full.

Here's my thing though. Mencia drives a Mercedes. So spending a 100 bucks on filling his Mercedes is not too bad. I personally don't feel too bad for him. You know what really sucks? When you spend a hundred dollars on gas and you drive a Ford Festiva. Do you know how bad that sucks? To have to pay high gas prices when you drive a CRAPPY CAR!?!?! SEE MENCIA?! THAT is what really sucks. Can you tell I drive a crappy car?

So here's Mencia's thoughts about high gas prices...enjoy!

This is a brand new Mencia minute where he talks about a cartoon character from Mexico that is getting a lot of attention right now...and what this character says about some Mexicans out there....check it out!

This story made me think: why do people care so much about the potential First Lady? Seems that Obama is very "infuriated" about the way that certain media outlets have spoken about Mrs. Obama.

I don't get why the First Lady is such a big deal. Do people think that she can just tell the President who to attack and he'll do it? Like they'll both be lying in bed at the White House and she whispers in his ear, "I hate China..can you get rid of them? Mexico's been getting on my nerves...bomb them for me please? It can be my birthday gift."

There are so many businessmen out there that head their own multi-BILLION dollar companies and there wives are of no concern. It's not about the wife, it's about the person running for office. So what if you don't like the wife? Big deal. Do you like where the candidate stands on foreign policy? the economy? In the end, I think that the wives only matter when it comes to their actual marriage. Is he happy with his wife? Do they get along with each other well?

I personally like Michelle Obama. I like the fist-bumps with her husband. I think it humanizes them and makes them seem like a "real" couple and a "real" couple is what we "really" need to "really" get us back to "reality". Or at least back to lower gas prices. Whatever comes first.

I wanted to share this really really cool moment I had at one the tapings when I was doing warm up.

I usually have some t-shirts and a dvd set that I give away at the tapings. And usually, I make people work for it. They tell jokes, they sing, some people dance. It's crazy...one of the best tapings we had was a couple of weeks ago. These two guys, Derrick and Adolf, ended up having a dance-off and it was so much fun. The audience went nuts for these two. It's always a good time.

This one time that I want to talk about features a guy from the audience named Agustin. He has come to a number of our tapings with his friend Mario. At the last taping, when I asked if anyone wanted to do something to get a chance to win the DVD, he raised his hand and said he'd sing for it. Everyone in the audience gets excited. So I ask him what he's going to sing and he tells me that he's singing the theme song to the Golden Girls...to me.

On my myspace page, I have a picture where I put my face on Sophia's body from the show, I LOVE THAT SHOW. "Auggie" said he had memorized the lines to the song in order to sing it to me. I was very touched by it. It's such a cool thing for ANYONE to go to that kind of effort, especially for me.

I'm including a pic of that moment that my friend Randy Shropshire took at the taping. When I saw this pic, I knew I had to talk about it because it's really special to me. It shows how at these tapings, I try to not only entertain the audiences. Really, if you come to a number of tapings, we start getting to know each other pretty well. There are people that I really feel become friends. And not only at the tapings but at live shows...when I open up for Mencia. There are people that I keep in touch with after "meeting" them through myspace.

Anyhoo, his song was awesome and in the end...he won the DVD. And not because I gave it to him, the audience voted and picked him as the best of the night. Which is awesome. So to Auggie I must say, "THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND!"

I have a lot of gay friends. I love them. It's weird though because to me, they're "gay" but I never really think of them like that. It's like my heterosexual friends...I don't usually refer to them as my "hetero" friends, so why would I do that with my gay friends? They are my friends first and foremost.

I have been a big supporter of gay marriage right from the get go. I think that it's important for EVERYONE to be allowed to marry just for the fact that I think it's absolutely RIDICULOUS that not everyone can. Who's the monitor that? Of course though, with someone like me who is absolutely PRO it, you'll also have people that are AGAINST it. So I want to know: which person are you?

This is between segments at a taping where Mencia discusses the typical Latino barbecue. I come from Texas and we really don't call them BBQ's there....we call them "cookouts"...but anyway, this is the new "Between the Breaks" segment and I wanted to share it with you all.

This is the latest in the Mencia minute segment of the show...and as we all know, this is behind-the-scenes so you can't see the Mencia minutes unless you check out the website.

In this one, Mencia talks about a secret about watermelon that a lot of people might not be aware of. Who says you can't learn something new everyday?

I was reading the virtual newspaper today and found an article about a very interesting story. After I read that one, I found THIS story which was even more interesting. The Chrysler building (which is lovingly referenced to in the musical Annie) has been sold to the highest bidder, that being the Abu Dhabi Investment Council.

I'm so glad that one of the most recognizable buildings in the country is owned by Abu Dhabi. I, of course, am being completely sarcastic. What on earth are they thinking? What's next? Selling the White House to the Russians?

Is it just me or am I just overreacting? I think what bothers me most is that in this article, the Abu Dhabi Investment Council is called "secretive". That's exactly what I want to hear when you read a story like this:

"Hey, Jimmy, your dad and I are going out for the night....we got you a babysitter...she's very SECRETIVE; I'm sure you'll be ok..."

The article also states that the Abu Dhabi Investment Council is managed by the largest emirate in the oil-rich UAE. I HAVE JUST DISCOVERED THE REASON FOR THE HIGH GAS PRICES!!!

These dicks bumped up the gas in order to have the money to buy the Chrysler building....jeez!!!! I HAVE UNCOVERED THE MASTER PLAN! They are playing real-life monopoly with our country. I'm guessing they're buying General Electric and Arrowhead water so that they have utilities...

By the way, new episode of Mind of Mencia tonight at 10:30/9:30 p.m.....slowly counting down to the season finale!

I hope you're ready because it's time for our prestigious Dee Dee Dee award that is given only to those who have expressed a knack for being stupid. This week's winner comes to us from Wisconsin. What's soooooo "dee dee dee" about this guy? Well, he's been arrested for faking heart attacks to avoid paying bills. What?

That's right. The story says that the man ran up a $23 bill at Applebee's and pretended to have a heart attack in order to get out of it and that was only after he taken a cab to the mall and pretended to have a heart attack to avoid paying the fare.

Well, his Applebee heart attack is the one that did him in. Turns out the fire department took him to a hospital where the doctor recognized him as the guy who did the same thing weeks earlier. He was charged with "defrauding a restaurant as a habitual criminal." The article says he could get up to 9 months in prison and a $10k fine.

Ok, let's talk about this...the dude faked a heart attack to get out of a $23 bill at Applebee's. Let's stop right here first. It's Applebee's. I mean, if you're doing something bad and there's a chance you can get caught...do it big...go to the most awesome restaurant in your town and go nuts. I mean, it's like when you were younger and missed curfew...well, stay out longer then, you're ALREADY in trouble. Secondly, the guy is facing a possible $10,000 fine? If I were that guy, I'd want to kill myself. Can you imagine what he must be thinking: "dude, if I could do that over again, I would so pay the $23 buck...it's better than $10,000!" And really, how the hell do you come up with an idea like that? I mean, you're obviously creative, you thought of faking heart attacks....but you're obviously a con guy...so I guess what I'm saying is that if you're going to con someone, make sure it's a cool scheme so that you seem like a bad ass if you get caught. I read this story and thought this guy was a dumbass. Stupid, stupid, stupid!!!!

So for this guy, I reward you the DDD Award of the week...you, my friend, are a freakin' moron. But I guess I have to thank you because if stupid people like you didn't exist, there would be no DDD awards to give. So thanks stupid!

I love Mitch Hedberg....a brilliant comedian and timely. I was reading this story and instantly remembered his joke:

"I love my fed-ex guy cause he's a drug dealer and he don't even know it...and he's always on time."

So it turns out that someone in Florida tried sending 200 pounds of marijuana to Baltimore but Fed Ex delivered it to the wrong address. The police became aware after the delivery was made and were contacted by the party with the wrong delivery.

In the vein of a Law and Order episode, the police posed as fake Fed Ex employees and delivered the weed to the right person...and then arrested him for "possession of a large quantity of a controlled dangerous substance with intent to distribute along."

Dude, both parties in this transaction have balls. I mean balls. How do you even think of trying to smuggle that much weed? The police said that they found more shipments that contained 400 lbs. of weed as well.

After reading this story, I realized that the saying "there's truth in comedy" is absolutely true. I think this story is hilarious but I also think it's funny that I remembered Mitch Hedberg's joke about this as well. Just goes to show you that the funniest jokes seem to be the ones that come from a real place.

I was reading that Obama is planning on accepting his Democratic nomination at the stadium where the Broncos play which makes certain people think that it's a good sign that he likes to break typical political protocol (ooh, alliteration anyone?) John McCain will likely accept his at the stodgy convention that is known as the Republican convention (I'm being unbiased, I know).

Here's my question though: with both candidates now really zeroing in on their platforms and traveling to campaign (and most importantly, Clinton being out of the picture), WHO DO YOU THINK WILL BE A BETTER PRESIDENT?

John McCain has an impressive military record (my God, he was a POW) yet Obama seems to be the man that epitomizes change. I'm curious to know: does the idea of change weigh more than McCain's military service and experience? Let me know...

I was going through my MySpace page, checking out the messages from people that bought me as pets and so forth (only myspace people get that reference) when I saw this video featured on the website from NBC's America's Got Talent.

I have yet to see this show except for two clips...one being the amazing opera singer and this one whose talent is very...um unique. I think I kinda gave it away in the title of the blog but I figured what the hell? It might want to make you watch it even more.

Sadly enough, this video did make me wonder what talent I would do if I wanted to be on this show. Even sadder, I came up with nothing. Not one unique talent. It's sad. I can play the harmonica...kinda (ok, I can play the Rocky theme song and Piano Man). I can sing (but then again, who can't?).

I guess I can eat. THAT'S MY TALENT. Eating...in fact I do it so well that I had to join a boot camp in order to lose the weight that I've gained from my amazing eating skills. America's Got Talent bums me out...but then again, it also makes me want to get a hobby and become REALLY good at it.

This is the latest in the Mencia minute segment of the blog. In this one, Mencia gives his opinion about the hit song I Kissed a Girl by Katy Perry. Check it out and see if you agree with the Mind of Mencia star.

One of my favorite singers is Billy Joel. I L-O-V-E this "Piano Man". Actually, I love piano guys period (BEN FOLDS ROCKS!). So I'm blogging about ex-wife of Mr. Joel, Christie Brinkley.

For those of you unaware, Christie Brinkley was the epitome of the American Girl in the 80's. I mean supermodel status because she had the girl-next-door appeal. In fact, Billy Joel's "Uptown Girl" is about her (lucky).

Now she and her husband (Peter Cook) are going through a nasty divorce and today I read that Peter Cook spent $3,000 dollars a month on pornographic websites. Um, what? Ok...here's my question: HOW ON EARTH DO YOU SPEND THAT MUCH MONEY A MONTH ON PORN WEBSITES?

In order to speak more about this matter, I decided to "research" different porn sites (and signed up for 3 of them) to see how much they were. I googled to get the most popular and got my results. The following shows the price of membership (without the website names because kids can see this blog post):

1. The most popular I got offered a membership for $9.95 a month.
2. The second membership cost $34.95 a month.
3. The third was $29.99
4. The fourth was $39.73
5. The fifth was $29.95

If you add these memberships together you get a grand total of: $144.57

That is really, really far from his $3K a month. And these are 5 sites. I can't imagine using more than these. I'd be all "porned out".

Here's the thing though: there are so many websites out there that allow you to get it for free!

This is why I'm presenting you with the DDD Award this week! You could be saving a lot of money that can be used for something else. Like a tank of gas or something. Congrats!

I figured this was a good question to ask. I don't know. Ever since Al Gore (rumor has it he was Vice President of something once) came out with An Inconvenient Truth, I think we've kicked up our eco-friendly tactics up a notch. I know I personally have. At least, I think I have. But then again, I might've forced myself to think like that because it's the cool thing to do.

Maybe I should be doing more. But then again, maybe I'm doing ok. How about you guys? Are you guys out there doing everything you can? You happy with the effort you're putting in. I want you to answer honestly...since the votes are anonymous.

There's a new Mencia minute up and I wanted to feature it because it's Mencia's opinion about George Carlin. Since I blogged about my feelings about Carlin earlier in the week, I figured it was just to have Mencia do it as well.

There are so many comedians that have written and talked about Carlin, which just goes to prove what an impact he made in the world of comedy. So here it is, Mencia talking about Carlin:

Oh man! I am LOVING this story! I read about this guy in North Pole, Alaska, (real place by the way) that was riding a lawn mower drunk and led police on a "SLOW-SPEED CHASE THROUGH SEVERAL LAWNS".

OH MY GOD! I'm dying over here. It's so ridiculous. I don't know what it is about DUI stories that make me pay attention (maybe it's that I've had a DUI myself). I know I covered the wheelchair guy a couple of days ago but this one just made me laugh my ass off.

The guy led police in a chase that covered 200 ft and reached speeds up to 5 mph. I can't stop laughing about it. The article says that "a trooper got out of a cruiser and told the man to stop." Dude, how lame is this? Who gets the chance to lead police into a chase and this guy decides to do the weakest one possible? The only thing worse would be having a speed chase on rollerblades.

They booked him on a DUI. THIS IS THE KIND OF STUFF LAW AND ORDER SHOULD BE DOING...throw in some more comedy into such a dramatic (and awesome) shows.
