2) The McCain campaign is deftly wielding the outrage sword, forged through many trips in and out of the fire of lies and misdirection. Obama: "I like ham." McCain: "Why does Sen. Obama want to abort and murder all turkeys on the face of the earth?!?!?!?!" But whatever; if the storm of hateful and mindless emails on behalf of McCain defacing B. Hussein Obama (a conservative e-mailers favorite trick) which I have been receiving from the bitter, uneducated lady from across the hall are any indication, we have a long 4 years ahead of us. OK, that was a little much on my part. But the lady across the hall is an old bitter lonely woman who has little to hold on to besides hate and the church, which I suppose feed one another. That part is true(ish).
3) In sports, Carlos Zambrano, in front of the baby animals of Chicago's north side, pitched the first Cub no-hitter since 1972 against the Houston Astros for the first neutral site no-hitter ever. Hopefully this can get the Cubbies their swagger back for the playoff run. And like my good buddy Ross says, the magic number for the Northsiders is 7.
USC is without a doubt the number one team in the nation after their dismantling of the Ohio State Buckeyes. Hometown favorite LSU moved to 6 in both polls, and there are 5 SEC teams in the top 10, which means, roughly, THE SOUTH WILL RISE AGAIN!! YEEEEE-HAWWWWWW!!!
In what could be described as "some crazy college shit" Mike Shanahan (Remember him? Denver Broncos coach? John Elway? Yea, that's the guy.) went for the 2 point conversion for the win against the Yellow Lightening Bolts of San Diego County.
I have a Mickey Mantle rookie card with a torn corner and a push pin hole near the top. I'm thinking I can get at least 75 cents for it. Possibly as much as this card.
4) A couple of Time articles. Once is about the advent of the mindlink function the Army wants to develop to provide for brain to brain communication in the field. And then they put on their rocket packs and warp to battle the aliens from Jupiter. Whatthefuck!?!
Another is a discussion about teen girls, their self image and sexuality. I think I speak for everyone on earth when I say, thanks, MTV and The Disney Channel, for making the gene pool even shallower then it already was. I think I've said it before but I believe future historians will trace the decline of the U.S. empire to the MTV show Happy Birthday, You're A Cunt. I think that's what it's called. I'm not sure.
5) In entertainment, Seth McFarland, of Family Guy, has a new webseries of shorts, many links to which can be found in this article. I prefer the dog on the $25,000 pyramid, but that's because I find the silences in jokes much more funny than the punchline.
More stuff.
New Coen Brothers movie, which I will find the time in my busy, busy schedule to attend sometime within the next 60 to 67 years.
I love it when old people get to talking about their past. The stories have no real beginning and no real end, and blues master B.B. King is no different. I imagine he could write a best selling audio book just by talking into the microphone for 4 hours.
My life is beginning to return to normalcy (not a word) with the fall television season starting up once more. Here is a quick little primer to get you back into the swing of things for your favorite shows. And remember, It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia returns this Thursday at 9central on FX
Well, that's about it. I'm going to just quit so I can devote more time to my family and outside interests (read: watching more Always Sunny clips on hulu.). Have fun with those kegs, boners.
