In Sunday, January 11th's installment of The Gene Pool...
... I was amazed at the following: "We played Parcheesi. Never heard of it? I'm not shocked. I don't think it's a very well-known game." Who has not heard of Parcheesi? Does the Gene Pool think he is breaking new ground here?
... I did not care for the play-by-play Parcheesi comentary.
... I did, however, like the 3-and-1 part of the story.
... I like the Tina Cursing Corner, especially, "I'll just tell them the fucking thing was delicious."
... I did not like that the TCC is back to all "fuck"s, however.
... I did not like that Tina has a sharp pain in her thigh. How is going to fucking work out? (By the way, Gene Pool, it's "work out" in this case, not "workout." It's a verb, not a noun.)
... I mostly liked the diatribe on compound sentences. I did not like what the Gene Pool did with the pizza sentence, however. I would have left it as one sentence and simply restructured: "I like pizza, but I don't like too many toppings or thick crusts," instead of "I like pizza, but I don't like too many toppings. I also don't like thick crusts."
... I liked that Kelly got pink eye.
... I liked the Daily Top List, but I was confused. What is the obligation with No. 4?

In Saturday, January 10th's installment of The Gene Pool...
... I did not like that the Gene Pool posted Saturday, January 10th's installment sometime between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. on Sunday, January 11 but somehow the post's time stamp says "Saturday, January 10, 2009." I do not appreciate this deception.
... Overall, I liked the Gene Pool's assessment of king cakes, but I think Gambino's confections are about on par.
... I also liked the Gene Pool's commentary on crawfish. I agree: They are good.
... I really like the thematic element in the latest Tina Cursing Corner. The beauty of three instances of "Fuck. What the fuck?" cannot be diminshed.
... I was indifferent toward the TV Week In Review.
... I was mostly indifferent toward the Parting Shots.
... I did not care for the line, "The first of many memorable Romo blowing-it moments." Remember, Gene Pool. 101 years and counting. (On a style note, it should have been "Romo-blowing-it moments."
... I likes the rest of the Daily Top List. Interesting subject matter.

In Friday, January 9th's installment of The Gene Pool...
... I liked the Gene Pool's comments regarding the service at the Apple store. It's nice to see something positive.
... I liked the individual explanations for the songs on the Saints mix tape. I expecially enjoyed that the Gene Pool played the 15-song compilation for Tina. I would like to know when this took place.
... I liked The Tina Cursing Corner today. Especially, Tina's apparent obsession with Suzi Ormond and the use of "shit" later in the entry. Way to mix it up again, Tina. Now, let's see if we can start incorporating some other terms.
... I liked that the Gene Pool fessed up and corrected his comment about Milton Bradley.
... I was indifferent to the following: "Brick: He laid down the gauntlet. Brick (then commenting): You never want to carry the gauntlet. Me: Yeah. It's heavy."
... I was (mostly) liked the Daily Top List. I would have transposed items 1 and 2, however.

In Thursday, January 8th's installment of The Gene Pool...
... I did not care for the Gene Pool's critique of the hamburgers. Who sticks his or her finger through a patty?
... I did not like the Gene Pool's employment of Wikipedia during the Trivial Pursuit contest. Aside from the inherent problem of the aforementioned internet reference (as illustrated with this story: http://www.theonion.com/content/node/50902 ), is that this act slowed down the game considerably. As the Gene Pool complained, "I'm not a big fan of [Trivial Pursuit]. I don't mind the questions being difficult because I use the game as a learning tool. Trivial Pursuit games, however, always drag on and on to the point where I'm begging somebody to win already." The problem with the Gene Pool's assessment is that he constantly interupted the flow of the game with reports from Wikipedia. While I do not devalue the information we learned (or possibly about which we were missinformed through Wikipedia), this seemed to be the most significant consumer of time.
... I am indifferent to the Gene Pool's statement that I failed to mention the Chuck helped me considerably in the creation of "Poolside (feat. Bob Wardlaw)". I do not recall explicitly, but I do thought I mentioned this at game night. Also, it was Chuck who tipped off the Gene Pool to Poolside's existence.
... I especially liked Thursday's installment of "The Tina Cursing Corner." First, it was rather voluminous, which is always a good sign. But even better, Tina employed two "shit"s and the always entertaining "shithole."
... I do not know how to respond to the following: "Two and [1/2] Men wins for best comedy. 'It's about fucking time.'" I don't even know that there is an appropriate response to this.
... I was indifferent to Gene Pool's self-assessment. It was interesting, however.
... I liked the Gene Pool's review of the updated version of ESPN's website.
... I did not care for the Gene Pool's Top List regarding vanity license plates. It appears that the Gene Pool was grasping for straws in Thursday's edition.

In Wednesday, January 7th's installment of The Gene Pool...
... I have mixed feelings regarding the oil change story. While it is entertaining, I cannot understand why the Gene Pool continues to get his oild changed at the dealer. When I get my car's oil changed, the most frustrating occurence usually is that I don't have enough time to finish the magazine article I am reading. You know, because the work is finished so quickly.
... I liked that Tina mixed it up again, with a "shit." However, I really enjoyed "3:fucking:30," although I would have written it "three-fucking-thirty," or perhaps "three:fuckingthirty." Probably the latter.
... I liked the story about Mandy. Stories about attentive, hot girls with big tits are always enjoyable.
... I liked this: "The tooth pick slowly spreads all the way. THIS REALLY HAPPENED." If I ever needed a pair of sentences to sum up the author of the Gene Pool, it would be these.
... I did not like that the Gene Pool tipped the waitress 20 percent. Service like that should be compensated according to the value, not the bill.
... I really did not like the Daily Top List. A compilation that includes both Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit? Only the Gene Pool could create one that awful.

In Tuesday, January 6th's installment of The Gene Pool...
... I did not care for the Gene Pool's ridicule of the two fellows in red shirts. It may be possible that they did not plan the wear the same color. It did not warrant two paragraphs.
... I liked the Gene Pool's excitement with the laptop attack, as well as the pride in the delivery of "That one (dramatic pause) connected."
... I was indifferent to the story about Password.
... I liked that Tina is mixing up the language again.
... I liked the Gene Pool's analysis of the Dolphins-Ravens playoff game. Well dissected.
... I liked Jennifer's snarky comment toward the Gene Pool. On that topic, I am looking forward to receiving my first issue of Fat & Sassy.
... I was generally unipressed with Tuesday's Top List.
