Regarding my last post...
I’m realizing I don’t love these current Mets individually all that much. I’m looking forward to Ryan Church cause what real baseball fan doesn’t love a doubles hitter, and Wright and Reyes are great and all, but there’s nobody I’m a huge FAN fan of on the team right now. Nobody whose t-shirt I’d run out and buy, for example. That kinda stinks. Not gonna...

“50 and G-Unit are putting on a sold-out performance somewhere in a fictional Middle Eastern setting. This is where the ‘blood on the sand’ comes in. They put on the performance; the people are pleased, but the concert promoter stiffs them and doesn’t give 50 and G-Unit their payment.” “So, of course, 50 isn’t going to leave until he gets paid, so he hassles the concert promoter,...

A boycot on the word 'Octogenarian'
If there was ever a a constant example of people using a more complicated word when a simpler one would do, it’s this piece of crap. I hate it. Just say 80 year old like a normal human being. Gah!
I signed up for Gamefly last night. →
Gamefly is Netflix for Video Games. This makes too much sense for me. I don’t play online multiplayer all too often, so once I beat a game, I’m done. These games cost $40-60 and I buy too many of them. Furthermore, there are tons of average to below average games I’d like to check out but not actually pay full price for. I worked out my que last night. There seem to be a number...
alexbalk: So, says Gov. Paterson: “I’m put in the Executive Bedroom. Roosevelt slept in it. It’s an enormous room. I’m tired, excited - it’s been a long day, and I need sleep. I’ve, naturally, never slept there before. I get up on the bed. It’s two times as high as the one in my own home. So high that I fell off it.” We’re on the phone. I ask, “Were you hurt?” “No. Just my pride,” said our...

perpetua: bg5000: I don’t know. To me it seems that Muxtape is basicly a Tumblr-like platform for scaled down music blogs, and they don’t have to pay royalties, do they? I mean, they may have to impose a few more limitations in the future as well as do a little more policing about the songs that get put up, but as long as they keep things small i don’t see much of a difference between Muxtape and,...

Pearl Jam is playing 2 nights at MSG (with Ted... →
Pearl Jam was my favorite band for a good chuck of my life. I think if I ever sat down and listed my top 10 albums of all time, It would be very hard to leave vs. off. Despite this, I’ve seen them live just once, four years ago, at a minor leauge hockey arena in Scranton. Regardless of if I end up going to Bonnaroo or not, I will be sure to hit up one of these MSG shows.

Blu Ray movies from as low as $8.00 each. Good ones, too! Crank for $13! A great place to cash in all your told-you-so points.
Interesting LOST tidbit...
paulscheer:Schwartz turned the tables on Lindelof and asked him whatever happened to the four-toed foot statue from the “Lost” season two finale. Lindelof’s reply, “That’s actually a great story,” Damon responds. “We did the four-toed statue on the show and basically we got a note back from the network, which was, ‘This is too weird.’ We’re like, ‘Do you watch the show? This is too weird?’ And...
Huge Discounts To See NY Titans Lacrosse At... →
$15 tickets for $10 $30 tickets for $20 $40 tickets for $25 $50 tickets for $30 $95 tickets for $55 Yeah, no shit. Professional Lacrosse isn’t taking off at MSG? Would have never guessed. Who on earth was paying $95 for this? Semi-related, went to the Devils-Rangers game in Newark last night. Great time, Rangers won in a shootout. I’ll say this now, and I know it’s tough because...
Urgh...Bracket Second Thoughts
I’m actually really happy about my bracket except for one part. Indiana over UNC. Everything I read says Indiana is burnt out from the Samson thing and won’t even get out of the first round. I’m talking myself back into UNC, mostly because I finally came around on Tyler Hansborugh watching that otherwise disappointing ACC win and now love him. I just hate going too far with them...
Watchjennyc: I don’t know why I never saw this one before, but, it makes me want to marry Sam Mason. I just bought a blender and plan on making these immediately. Yes! Forgot about this. I regretably missed my Curras trip this year in Austin.
Thinking out loud about my NCAA picks
I just invented a theory: Everything else aside, NBA ready guards and small forwards dominate in the tourney. I don’t have the stats to back it up, but it seems like it’d make sense. All else aside, you want one guy who can create baskets to be able to take over a game. Big men can be double-teamed and neutralized, but it’s really hard to stop an explosive scorer. This is why I...
How I Met Your Mother
I’ve got a bad feeling these episodes are the beginning of the end… I never thought I’d be sad to meet the mother.
My Flight from Boston to NYC, that was supposed to...
I think I could walk to NYC in that time. And yes, to repeat, this is a connection from Austin, through Boston, to New York. I keep telling myself this is the price I pay for getting SXSW completely free, but FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. It’s cold here, too.
"We wrote this song, by the way."
-phantom planet, as they start to play “California.” Also, by the way, they are a far better band than I’ve ever given them credit for. Surprisingly excellent set.

Could The Winter Classic be the Final Event at... →
It would be amazing. The building would then have two distinct and proud sendoffs, and a Rangers-Bruins ‘Original Six’ matchup, at this stadium in particular, would draw TONS of new fans to the sport. All around great idea. I hope it happens.
