sharingtime: I recently saw David do stand-up a little while back and couldn’t have had a better time. So it was a little disappointing to be a little disappointed in his first book. Not to say there weren’t funny moments, but all the pieces kind of bled together for me. No one essay really stood out. Maybe his material just lends itself better to stand-up. Nothing wrong with that, but I’m not sure I would read another of his books unless he came over to my apartment and read it to me.  I got this as an audio book and seemed to enjoy it much more than most of the people who’ve read it. This despite his constant adlibs ribbing the listener about being too lazy to read. So I think you’re on to something. Also, Les Savy Fav perform a chapter, which was unsurprisingly awesome.

» The Battle of NYU

soupsoup:

A rising upstart NYU blog takes on the established NYU school paper.

 This is a joke, right? The blog is claiming that they regurgitated a couple press releases faster than the newspaper did? And that the paper, who went ahead and actually followed up on these stories to post complete articles, should somehow credit the blog for FIRST!ing the story? Good god. NYU kids are the worst.

hotfoot: mknell: Now that the Mets are done, what’s next for Citi Field? Well, professional football of course! The first football game ever at Citi Field will be on Wednesday November 4th, as the United Football League’s New York Sentinels battle the Las Vegas Locos at 8pm.  Tickets are on sale tomorrow at 10am ET and start at $11.  Be sure to be one of the first, and few as soon as the NFL sics it’s lawyers, marketing power and antitrust exemption on it, to see NFL washups and outcasts play professional football actually played within the New York City limits. I’ll probably go just for the novelty of it all. If I wasn’t going out of town that day, I’d totally be there. The NY team has Simeon Rice, Koren Robinson and a guy named, I shit you not, Craphonso Thorpe. Go Sentinels!
