STICK TO SOCCER.
|
|
Speaking
of John Harkes, I forgot that he used to be my favorite soccer player
(see February 15 2000--and
pardon the old layout). And we were making fun of him because he
couldn't hit a golf ball straight... |
|
|
JEAN-PAUL.
|
WHY SEPARATE KNOB?
|
|
Here we have Olympian Meb Keflezighi, who won the silver medal in the
marathon In Greece.
Is it just me, or does this picture look
like Jean-Paul, the marathoner from Trinidad and Tobago on Seinfeld who overslept and missed the Olympics?
That's freakin' creepy-weird.
|
Jerry: Ah, hi Jean-Paul. Nice to meet you.
Jean-Paul: Nice to meet you.
Jerry: Sorry about the Olympics.
Jean-Paul: Me too.
Jerry: (long pause) So what happened? The snooze alarm, wasn't it?
Jean-Paul: Man, it wasn't the snooze. Most people think it was the snooze, but no, no snooze.
Jerry: AM/PM?
Jean-Paul: Man, it wasn't the AM/PM. It was the volume.
Jerry: Ah...the volume.
Jean-Paul: Yes, the volume. There was a separate knob for the radio alarm.
Jerry: Ah, separate knob.
Jean-Paul: Yes, separate knob. Why separate knob?! Why separate knob?!

THE CHOICE.
|
THE WORLD IS A BASTARD.
|
|
Last night, after Beth went to bed at like 7:00, I had a choice between
watching The Office and watching George Bush's convention speech.
No contest.
|
Jesus,
I'm sitting here rambling on about Seinfeld while hundreds of
people--including many children--died this morning in a school in Russia
after a battle between Chechen hostage-takers and Russian commandos. It's
goddamn sad.

|
|
CURIOSITY.
|
The
Choice, Stick To Soccer, Jean-Paul, Why Separate Knob?!, Playground,
Curiosity, By Mail, and The World Is A Bastard. |
|
What
are the punctuation rules for an exclamation point and a question mark
next to each other? The AP Stylebook (yeah, I have one of those) doesn't
mention it. Sorry, just wondering.
Hey, there's nothing wrong with
curiosity, is there?!
|
|
|
PLAYGROUND.
|
BY MAIL.
|
My
friends seem to believe that my Comments Sections is their own personal
playground:
Justin - Uses it as his own little journal.
Andrea - Uses it in lieu of email.
Kenny - Uses it to harass me.
Barney - Uses it as a sex forum.
Not that it's a bad thing, mind you. But it would be nice if some of my other readers would comment rather than be intimidated by my lunkhead friends. Then again, I don't blame them.

I think I'm obsessed with raising the bar of laziness. First, I started
ordering groceries over the internet even though the dang grocery store
was less than a mile away. Now, I'm going to do something that tops
that.
I'm going to look into voting for president by mail.
Actually, maybe it's not laziness, but rather a desire to avoid
as many people as possible. Hermitville, here I come.
