Natalie Walker . Waking Dream

I havent seen Twilight. I cant vouch for Twilight. But this song was my #1 song of 2006, so I might just have to watch it now...



... and how bad can a vampire movie be?

Ater Last Season == WTF?

Is this some sort of sociological experiment? I cant wrap my mind around the fact that this trailer is on the Apple site:

This cant be real, right?

Janowski's Dozen

Did anyone notice that Stevie Janowski brought 11 deviled eggs to the Cutler/Buchanon barbeque? I just love that he ate one.

Mas March Madness

Siena in 2OT! That's why I watch. There is no better sporting event than the NCAA Tournament.

March Madness

Dear God,

Please, please, please let someone with a better understanding of sports be promoted as the executive-producer of the NCAA Basketball tournament on CBS. How can anyone think that it is a good idea to show the entire Siena v Ohio State game and then with less than a minute left to go -- IN OVERTIME -- to start jumping back and forth over to the Florida State v Wisconsin game?!?

St Patrick's Day

I know they were only 18-14, but Notre Dame beat #6 Texas, #11 Georgetown, and #4 Louisville. No love for the Irish I tells ya, but I feel worse for these guys.

Oh yeah, on March 19th: Radford 71, UNC 70. Book it.

Chess Battles From Heaven, V

L. Ron Hubbard
vs
Susan B. Anthony

L Ron insists that Susan take the white pieces, but she refuses. He opens with e4, and despite thousands of years of chess strategy declaring not to take your Queen out early, Susan responds with d5... After her pawn is captured, she brings out the Grand Lady and mops the floor with L Ron's pawns, which he refers to as his "eight dynamics".

Lesser Gods Make Tiny Problems

Sweater, check.
Coat, check.
Backpack, check.

Three minutes into my walk to work I was attacked by an upper middle back itch from the shady side of the river styx. Despite my best efforts to defend myself (cut to: grown man on sidewalk clumsily reaching for the pretty arrow in his spine) I couldnt reach it, "Almost... there...".

Then this arrives on my walkman: Young Folks

A good song, but not a good song when you cant scratch that itch. There's a tambourine-y thing in the beginning that sounds exactly like itching, and that whistling just sings, "I'm a little itch you cannot reach! You can try but you will fail. Did you really think that you could scratch me?"

Chess Battles From Heaven, IV

Ayn Rand
vs
Crispus Attucks

"Every pawn for himself!", Ayn cries as she leads off with an atrociously daring a4. Crispus himself is brazen. He has no qualms about working his pieces into a frenzy, and even throws his wooden pieces across the board. When Crispus tries to take Ayn's pawn, Ayn has a fit, screaming, "You cant take that! How can I play chess with others if I dont have pieces for myself? Mine! Mine! Mine!". Crispus is secretly glad to have avoided the massacre as Ayn takes all of her pieces and storms away.

my Mom learned me that things happen in threes

This morning when I left my house, Ambition (The Doves) was playing on the stereo. The first song that came on as I walked to work was Ambition again. Look for that word to pop up once more today.

Alliance

If you ever ask yourself 'why should we remain allied with country X?'.
Stop. Rewind. Start over again.
