Ante Meridiem Eye Openers-October 8, 2008CE

1) Last night I actually watched the debate, all the way through. On a personal note, if you just want to watch the debate without having an epileptic seizure then tune on over to PBS; they don't have all the graphics and crawls and poop. I thought Obama spent half of his time rebuking McCain's characterizations of himself, and the other half outlining his plans. I felt he might have gotten a little too angry and fired up at some point, but I suppose that's hard when someone is calling you out. McCain stalked the stage all night in a more relaxed manner, which is saying something about the famous firebrand. McCain says he's more comfortable in the town hall setting, which is kind of like arguing over whether Lindsay Lohan is gay or straight: she's still an annoying cunt.

2) A couple of aspects of the global meltdown of human society are job loss and no growth. If you get laid off, then here is a nice checklist to help ease yourself into the breadlines, or perhaps even a stoic suicide after all your options have been exhausted. On the growth front, or I should say lack there of, New Orleans. Remember her? Well she's still there, barely, and the credit crunch has effected the rebuilding process in a major way. Like there isn't one anymore. Oh well, we'll always have Jazzfest, as Bogart said to Bergman.
3) Long time NBA executive and superstar player Elgin Baylor has retired from the Los Angeles Clippers after a 22 year career guiding the team from the very basement of sports to the 3rd floor. In this analogy it helps to know that the sports building has about 7000 floors. Wanna know whats on the 2689th? The Delaware Blue Hens.
RJF, the mouth of the LSU defense, admitted he's been reading the Auburn playbook by saying he wants to take Florida Gators god-in-a-man's-body, Tim Tebow, out of the game this Saturday (CBS, 7central, 5pacific). I would like to take this opportunity to remind my readers that Verne Lundquist is mine, motherfuckers, and you can't have him!!

How do I love thee; let me count the ways...

4) Queers! Ha, but I'm just kidding. Not really.

5) In entertainment, go watch Chuck. He needs your help.
Not strictly entertainment, but a good idea nonetheless. Now if I can just get an email ass-on that will help me with these darn dead hookers what keep appearing in my deep freezer...

6) Neat. Also neat.

7) Progress. Technology. Innovation. Maple Leafs. Snow.

Well, that's about it. It's like Timothy Leary said: "Civilization is unbearable, but it is less unbearable at the top."
