dream

I had a cool dream last night: I was something akin to an idiot savant painter, and my masterpiece consisted of a red and gold sunset over a red and gold lake with a sprinking of wildflowers and mountains in the background. The real crux of the piece, though -- which I remember took a lot of forethought and expertise -- had to be the majestic moose lowering his towering head to the water while two bastardly, cowardly men raised their rifles eagerly, excited to depose the gangly giant. You are supposed to abhor this.


notice: I copy these from my away messages now because the composer only has so long to compose.

Trouble

I got in trouble in class today. Not your normal type of trouble. The type of trouble where the professor has noticed you in past sessions, even though you sit in the very last row of a huge lecture hall, and has decided to send her T.A. henchmen, unbeknownst to you, to surround you and your friends. Then, with three of her minions within 8 feet of you, flanking you on the ends and directly in front, you decide to behave normally, which generally means talking a lot. At some point, you notice a T.A. sending silent signals somewhere, but it is too late. Big Red is behind you, ready to deliver a stern "talking to," which he proceeds to do fairly loudly for an extensive amount of time. That is the type of trouble I got into today.

Strange Basketball Game

A possession lasting over 2 minutes?

49 possessions?

25 percent shooting, and a win?

crazy stats

Straight from Dave Sez

or actually, straight from the mouth of the Devil (pre-Georgetown):

"Are they going to go undefeated? Are they going to do this? We’re starting Lee Melchionni and Sean Dockery."

Yup, that's media darling, leader of men, and all-around good guy Coach K talking about his (apparantly not so) beloved players. Seriously, with quotes like that, who would EVER want to play for the guy?


Oh, lest us not forget that Dockery was a McDonald's All-American, and Melchionni was Honorable Mention (and he paid his own way, thus freeing up a scholarship for K to ruin somebody else's career). Some appreciation from the guy who says it's all about the relationships (and lies through his teeth while doing so).

Hell the fuck yeah!

AD (best show on TV, bar NONE) on it's way to recovery? Sounds like it. Say yes, Mitch. Say yes.

also, more coolness (24 related), or if you don't need the explanation, fire away

don't get me wrong

I like the show and all, but golly, Chloe aka Mary Lynn Rajskub is the WORST actor/actress in the history of the world. Honestly. Maybe if the show was about who can make a face like they are smelling shit every 2 seconds she would be pretty good (still not THAT good though). Gosh, it's annoying. Maybe it'll be revealed later that she has schizophrenia or is a coke addict or something -- that's the ONLY way it could make any sense besides her just being incompetent (also, forgive my ignorance, I don't know if people in either of those groups behave anything like shitty actress Chloe)



while I'm at it, Derek sucks a pretty big one too, but nothing compared to atrocious Chloe....gah.

Read about this

Google domination:

Phase 1: underpants
Phase 2: ????
Phase 3: profit

but seriously, how close are we to all becoming googlites?

You had to be there

Chris: Make sure you line up the poster at the same height as the other ones.

Phipps: Wait a minute. I see what's happened here. The incumbent has lost -- there's a new mayor of Gaytown!

damn, I wish this had existed just a few weeks

earlier. Like when I was recovering from the hard drive disaster. Would have been nice, but I can still make some use of it now.

and the explanation

Google making life simple, once again.

Coyotes by Don Edwards

from "Grizzly Man," a documentary that is actually worth some serious shit (and is hilarious at the same time), unlike fucking march of the fucking penguins. It gives "Una Palabra" a run for the best song ever, especially in the land of soundtracks. I might just be a country fucker, though.

Was a cowboy I knew in south Texas,
his face was burned deep by the sun,
Part history, part sage, part Mexican;
he was there when Pancho Villa was young.

And he'd tell you a tale of the old days,
when the country was wild all around
Sit out under the stars of the Milky Way
and listen when the coyotes howl.

Oooh Yip oooh yip whoooo.

Now the longhorns are gone,
the drovers are gone, the Comanches are gone,
Geronimo's gone, the lion is gone
and the red wolf is gone.

Well, he cursed all the roads and the oil
men and he cursed the automobile,
Said this is no place for an hombre like I am
in this new world of asphalt and steel.

Then he'd look off some place in the distance,
at something only he could see
He'd say "All that's left of the old days
is the damned old coyote and me."

One morning they searched his adobe,
he disappeared without even a word.
But that night as the moon crossed the mountain,
one more coyote was heard.

this is silly

So I definitely think

that the Trojans SHOULD have won tonight (and would win 7 or 8 out of 10), but as much as I hate them (but not him), Vince Young DESERVED to win. No doubt about that.

(but how do you NOT expect that on 4th down?!?!)
