We're now at Day 3 of Jacottgate, and I have no news to report. No lawsuits, no middle of the night visits from Carlos's enforcers, and certainly no blubbery apology from the man himself. I briefly considered replacing the snippy note currently found at CarlosJacott.com with an image of me handing Carlos a box of chocolates, with the caption, "Why don't we just agree to disagree?" While that would be the greatest thing in the history of the internet, I am going to refrain from doing that until Carlos antagonizes me some more, or I get really bored.
Now that CarlosJacott.com has essentially been sent to the taxidermist, I am wondering what I should start working on. Don't get me wrong; Sweet Lady Goulash always treats me mighty fine. My muse demands more venues, that's all. From a hysterically emotional standpoint, I am tempted to register IHateCarlosJacott.com and let my bruised feelings run wild. If the man thinks I'm insulting him when I'm trying to do something complimentary, wait until he sees my actual negative material. That could get a little complicated though, since IHateCarlosJacott.com would most likely result in me fleeing the country to evade a swarm of lawsuits. While the people of Honduras are quite personable, I don't think they're ready to accomodate the fast-paced lifestyle of one Cody Wayne Maxwell Powell.
All I can say is, I'm glad that I'll be in Mexico in a few days, where it's 80 degrees and no one has ever heard of the Internet. And if Carlos wants to hunt me down there, he's going to have to deal with the one eyed bartender whose servant I'll be once my wallet is tapped and the American embassy refuses to return my calls. Indentured servitude has its priviledges.
Posted by Cody at February 18, 2004 6:03 PMStrike all that blubbery Carlos stuff I have up on that site right now; I just came up with a great idea on how to hit back. More details tomorrow.

Posted by: Pdiddy at February 18, 2004 10:51 PMCody, Cody, Cody... Do your worst to this ungrateful, bad, overactor. You don't have anything Carlos would think is remotely worth taking to make a lawsuit worth his time or money! I know you're found of the shower curtain but let it go man. The press will love this! Your site will be even more famous.Think of advances on book deals, publishers will be pouring them down your throat like shots of Chinaco while you bask in the sun of sunny Mexico! Really man, you're gonna want to do this the right way.
Posted by: rainy at February 18, 2004 11:29 PMYou're preaching to the choir here, rainy. Later today, I am going to strike back. Just you wait.
Posted by: Cody at February 19, 2004 9:30 AMBy taking down the Carlos Jacott site you are wildly over reacting to an innocent sarcastic remark made by Carlos. Since it is not obvious to you as it is to me I will let you know that Carlos was joking. It is patently obvious that he would never sue you or anyone else and he said as much in the quote you posted. You are taking his comment WAY to seriously. Relax man. Sit down. Have a beer. All the Best.
Posted by: Jim at February 19, 2004 3:06 PMJim: I am a big fan of jokes, but to me, it ceases to be funny when Carlos mentioned the possibility of suing me. As absurd as it sounds, some of us don't want to risk a barrage of law suits over a website, even if there's a possibility the threats were made in jest.
Nevertheless, I am going to take down what's currently on there and put the site back up today, with some special legal thriller type content. Prepare yourself!
