The Lesser of Who Knows How Many Evils
My highest was Kucinich with a 42. Edwards-36. Hillary & Obama-34. Giuliani-22. Ron Paul-13. Romney-11. McCain-7. Huckabee was my lowest with 3.
Tailgating
Apparently some people have more than just Miller Lite and Hot Dogs.

And if that is too artsy, I bring you ninjas.

14 (15?) laterals for the win
Hell must be freezing over because I'm posting a sports-related entry, but this video is too good to pass up. Trinity manages to get 14 laterals in the final play of their game to win.
Link to video if it doesn't show up above

The Perfect Storm
- Manny et al keep posting 11 runs a game,
- KG leads a revamped Celtics squad to his first title,
- BC mans up and lucks out, beats LSU in January,
- Pats stay on top and better the '72 Dolphins, Brady only needs one for the thumb.
I am terrified of the smugness and self-righteousness that would come from a run like that. And remember, I live in SF, where smugness and self righteousness are traded commodities. Freakin' Boston would be insufferable. Of course, it might be worth it: I always liked Bob Ryan, and after all this he could die happy. And, Bill Simmons would die of blood loss when his scrotum explodes, so that would clean up Page 2. If in 6 months I hear one bean eating bastard use that goddamn "You like apples?" line, I swear, stab stab stab.
Yes, I know I forgot the Bruins. Who cares about hockey. People out here are passionate about the Sharks...I can't even get my head around passionate hockey fans in a place where the weather is never below 50. It's a desert climate in SJ, and this city is Mediterranean. I've never even worn my winter coat since I moved. Hockey teams should not be from cities with Spanish names.
Let's all go to the lobby, and get ourselves a treat.

The Block
"Police who visited the bar earlier this year said they found three boys -- ages 15 to 17 -- drinking Grey Goose vodka at the bar. The boys said they paid a cover charge to enter but were not carded."

I'm awesome...
So, I was playing football with some people I work with. I went back to play a little zone coverage and apparently someone shot me in the back of the leg. Or so I thought. Turns out I tore my left calf muscle. Or as doctors seem to call it, my "gastrocnemius" - somewhere around a grade II strain. Lucky me. They fitted me with this nifty boot, I get to walk around like a robot for 3 weeks, and my prego wife gets to take care of me. There is a silver lining - I might be able to hold booze in it for the MD/UVA game.
Aren't you jealous you don't get to wear one of these?

Some Guy Versus Some Other Guy
So, I managed to catch this show on BBC a couple times, and I thought it was quite entertaining. Apparently, it was actually based on this Canadian show. Regardless, the original is coming to Comedy Central. I know, I know, its just another reality show. But if the original is anything like the BBC show, you could do worse.
