I like C-Webb. I really enjoyed watching his Sacramento teams back when Kobe/Shaq ruled the West. They were the only team that ever gave the Lakers a run, and I remember a couple of times that bad calls kept them out of the Finals. That said, it's the Hall of Fame , not the Hall of Really Good . If,...

Re: Diners Drive-Ins and Dives

Diners Drive-Ins and Dives, one of my favorite shows on the Food Network is accepting submissions for places they can visit in their upcoming season. Generally they look for local, family-owned type of joints that make kick-ass food. I was thinking about the Fort and I'm pretty sure they could do a...

This doesn't seem right. There is a regular season game going on, but the entire rest of the league is still in spring training. I'm not a fan of this whole game in Japan thing.

Maybe then an Indiana team could win a tourney again. :)

I love IU, but it's been downhill for years (even before Bobby left).

Dang...what a great finish to the WK/Drake game. Last second 3-pointer (from about 3 feet beyond the line) to win it. Damnit. Yeah, that ending created trouble at work. My boss apparently didn't realize that most of us were in the break room watching the game. At least not until the giant uproar wh...

The Rev. Wright thing should be a non-issue. Every Republican candidate I can remember went after Rev. Jerry Falwell's endorsement and he talked about bringing back slavery all the time. Most still try to get an endorsement from Pat Robertson even after he was found guilty of discrimination for dras...

Gore in '08?

Heard about this from my boss, then read about it a little online. Here and Here Yes, I know that one of those is from the Huffington post - no snide remarks Jones :) An interesting idea, but I'm fairly sure it would destroy the Democratic Party. If the entire nation goes to the polls and pulls the ...

I heard a rumor that STP may be getting back together. I don't know how much truth there is to this, but I guess if the dude can stay clean long enough anythings possible. If they get back together he can't be clean. Scott writes total crap when he's clean (see 4) and rocks when drugged out. Sorry,...

Hooray for Brackets!

That time of year is coming around again. I know some people don't consider it that big a deal, but the first Thursday and Friday of the tournament are my two favorite days of the year. I'll be setting up the FWM group for a bracket challenge again this year. I'm gonna try to do it on Yahoo this yea...

3 or 4 years ago I did a ton of acting at Civic. Rehearsals ran Sunday - Friday, usually 3 - 4 hours per night. The shows ran 3 weekends, 4 shows / weekend. It's all kinds of fun if you've got the time. But it is a HUGE time commitment.

I never think about lyrics anymore. That sometimes does lead to unfortunate situations. I know I spend a lot of time with my eyes closed, and I keep trying to remind myself to open them. When they are open, I tend to interact with my guitarist. Sometimes, depending on the song, I'll try to find a gi...
