| Ramblings |
| Every once in a while, when I don't have the energy or the time to write a real article, I'll come up with one of these. The ramblings are probably going to vary in length and will never be limited to one topic. Chances are they'll come up off the top of my head as I'm writing, so don't try and figure out what I was doing when these popped into my head. |
| You have to love the NBA Draft. How often do you get to see 7' Serbs dressed up in thousand dollar suits? The suits would be nothing though without the $20 team hats they get after they're selected. Of course it's all topped off by the interview of that 18 year old kid on live television in which you know they're dying to say "I don't wanna play for the Clippers. The Clippers blow. I shoulda stayed in school." |
| It became an absolute certainty that Darko Milicic will dominate the NBA as soon as Dick Vitale said he thought Detroit was making a mistake by taking him at #2. And you heard it here first. |
 |
| Finally, is there anything more depressing than the guy they invite to sit in the front row of the draft who doesn't get taken until the second round? Do the cameras have to zoom in on him every 10 minutes to remind us that he's about three picks away from bursting into tears? |
| Is anyone else disturbed by the fact that The Hulk made $100 million in its first two weeks? More than 10 million people paid to see this movie? |
| Rumour is Arnold Shwarzenegger may run for governor of California. I'm applying for residency in Cali right now so I can vote for Ah-nold. Imagine Arnold Shwarzenegger as President of the United States? Wouldn't that pretty much eliminate terrorism? It would have to shut France up. Couldn't we make an exception to the "born in the United States" clause for this guy? |
| Someday soon reality television is going to invade some average American family's home. The show will be boring as hell. It will be just like your life. Nothing exciting. No sex, or drugs or violence. People will watch it though. I can't explain why, but they'll watch it. |
 |
| I wish someone would put me in charge of the 4th of July fireworks. I'm all for fireworks. I'm not such a big fan of hour long fireworks shows though. Here's my plan, shoot them off all at once. I want an explosion so bright it almost blinds you and so powerful you get knocked off your feet, literally. Plus it's over quick. Who wouldn't love that? |
 |
| I've decided I need an accent. Not one I'll use all the time, but something I can whip out whenever I need it (i.e. picking up women). What would be really convenient is if I had a couple of them. Accents that is. I'll work on that and keep you updated. |
| He got that suit for free. The hat too. |
| "Any questions?" |
| If you're still standing after the fireworks, I've failed. |
