DAILY DOSE: "Everybody's Waitin' for the Honeymoon to End"
Howdy, Y'all
... {ahem..} ..
I've..got a feellll--in', Picksburgh's Goin' to da' Suuu-per Bowl!
Haha- just kiddin.' After the way we dismantled the NFC Champion in a totally meaningless game tonight, I guaran-damn-tee that 70% of all calls to PGH Sports Talk Radio today will start that way. So i figured, "Why fight it!" It's like Spring Training-- everyone's undefeated today (except the 'Iggles) and hope springs eternal, Here We Go Stillers!
Anywho, to quote the Great Lance Storm (from Calgary, Alberta, Canada), "If I can be serious for a minute..."
Today I started my career.
Crazy-- I know. I threw on a suit, and it wasn't for a job interview, like the lady at the coffee shop thought. No, no. I've got insurance, a 401K, and all kinds of other things I don't understand (like conference calling and something called "Microsoft Outlook.") I'm a big kid now, and for the next week or so, as they break us in-- I'm playin' with the house's money, and coincidentally, eating at some nice Pittsburgh High Society-type places. It's really quite swellnees. Jean already has assignments, though, so it's it's only a matter of time before the Honeymoon ends for me as well. C'est la vie.
Now, time for a few random observations n'at.
1) What the HELL happened to Hillary Duff? Now, I was never one to put her into the "hot" camp, but she as least used to be a realistically shaped little almost-legal cutie. Now? Skeletor to the max. She looks like a coke fiend, and I ain't talkin' "The Real Thing" Coke.
2) For that matter-- Lindsay Lohan does, too. And she used to be hot (in that "Adam's strangely attracted to redheads these days way).
3) Wan-ta Fanta? Dontcha Wan-ta Fanta? ...I can't explain why I love that so damn much.
4) I picked up the new Hootie albumn last week, and am very happy with the purchase, 6 of the 12 songs fall firmly into the "really really like" camp, while a few others are above average, and there are really on two innately skippable tracks. Today's Song of the Day is "Hey Sister Pretty" of said albumn. Good, slightly angry song that exclaims, "I'm still tryin'...to stop this thing from dyin'...don't forget to kiss me 'fore you beat me up again." True. That.
5) I know it's currently not cool to like The Island, but Carolyn and I did. I've got a pretty good review half-written. When I finish that, you'll be able to go see the flick for 2 bucks, and enjoy your evening. You might even thank me.
6) Scarlett Johannson is H-O-T.
7) Marc is perhaps the Greatest Snipe Hunter of All Time. He caught SIX snipe, and killed each and every one of the little bastards with his bare hands. I saw it. If anyone out there ever wants to go Snipe hunting-- Marc's your guide.
8) bedtime. I'm a professional now.
peace.
