Welcome one, welcome all (Vol. I)
Ok, I caved in and finally went in for one of these blogs.. only trouble is I signed up for it and have nothing really to say, so I guess a few random thoughts will have to do for starters.
1) People shouldn't be allowed to handle guns after a certain age... I nominate however old Dick Cheney is.
2) Pitt basketball is going to be a Top 25 program for years to come. Likely men's and women's.
3) How am I ever supposed to watch SNL with partying to be done on Saturday nights? For that matter, how did the show ever take off in that time slot?
4) Cinderella Man was the best movie of '05, but it came out too early in the year to win awards, plus the fact a boxing movie was best picture last year killed it. Also, no fags in it... apparently that's the "in" thing. Glad I'm not hip.
5) The Dixie Chicks are still one of the best country acts of the last decade, regardless of what the moron hillbillies who got pissed over Natalie Maines calling a spade a spade will tell you.
6) Curling is just perverse. It's shuffleboard on ice, but you just start watching and can't stop... wow.
7) On-demand television is amazing. HBO shows and boxing, Starz movies, episodes of "Flying Circus," there's always something good on.
8) Flat tax = bad idea. Don't people realize it would only lower the tax rate for the top brackets? If this concept is foreign to you, either you listen to way too much talk radio, or you really struggle with basic math concepts.
9) Australia is in the World Cup. I'm still giddy.
10) Continuing #9, we are taking over the world. Keith Urban, Nicole Kidman & Naomi Watts, the unfortunate Rupert Murdoch, Joseph Hachem all examples of how Australians are taking over everything. Hell, we've already won a gold at the Winter Olympics and we don't even get snow.
11) Powerball jackpot is $350 million.
12) MySpace is evil... avoid at all costs.
That's it for the first 12.... I'll be in Lynchburg tomorrow and Saturday, so who knows when the next post appears.
