BOOBIE PRIZE.
|
| Hey,
nice job Mr. Glenn. I'm currently ranked 382nd out of 396 in my Big
Money NCAA Pool. Maybe I can finish last and win the boobie prize--I
would get my money back.
|
|
|
DOG THUMBS.
|
THE UNKNOWN COMIC.
|
|
When
you work from home, you find yourself alone for most of the day.
Around here, it's just me and the dog between 8 am and 7 pm most days.
Which leads to interesting conversations with him:
Glenn:
"Luke, you wanna treat? Yes? Well, go open up the cabinet and
get it yourself."
Luke: "I can't. I don't have any thumbs."
|
Hurray for The Unknown Comic!
|
|
|
THE FCC.
|
NOT-SO-GREAT EIGHT.
|
Headline Of The Day: "FCC to Broadcasters: F-Word Out of Bounds"
Well, no shit.
|
The Oakland A's third baseman Eric Chavez recently signed a contract
that states, in part, that he can't be traded to the following teams
without his consent: Cleveland, Florida, Milwaukee, Minnesota, Montreal, New York Mets, Tampa Bay and Toronto.
How do you think those eight teams feel? And why aren't the Padres included in that group?

|
|
COLD HARD CINDER BLOCKS.
|
AGE.
|
| My
neighbor Bob (yes, another neighbor named Bob) was breaking up cinder
blocks in his driveway all day (I won't ask if you don't). Thunk!
Thunk! All freakin' day in the cold. Why can't he wait until spring,
for fuck sake? And it set me to thinking: What a long, horrid, ugly
winter this was. Cooped up in this house. My cat croaking. Lusting for
cigarettes. And a 3-month writer's block. Brutal, I tell ya. But
fortunately, the good weather will roll in soon and my mood will
brighten up. Coronas on the deck. Softball. Golf once a week. And warmth.
|
Glenn:
"Guess who died today? J.J. Jackson. Remember him? The old VJ?""
Beth: "Who?"
Long contemplative pause. The Glenny decides that he is old.

GEEK.

Dog
Thumbs, Age, The FCC, Geeks, Astrobracketology, Not-So-Great Eight, The Boobie
Prize, The Unknown Comic, Gene! Gene!, and Cold Hard Cinder Blocks. |
| Last
night I stayed up until almost 2 am because I finally figured out how to
convert a Word document into a PDF document. I was kinda excited. So,
does that make me a geek? Or rather more of a geek?
|
|
|
ASTROBRACKETOLOGY.
|
GENE! GENE!
|
| All
Your Brackets Are Belong To Us.
|
And
hurray for Gene, Gene the Dancing Machine too!
