Amy Schumer has made it another week on Last Comic Standing. I dig comedy, and liked this show from the start, but Amy’s the reason I never miss an episode.
That, or my dual-tuner HDTV DVR.
But Amy’s cute, and reminds me of a non-Jewish, broadcast-television appropriate version of Sarah Silverman. The delivery is kind of the […]

Johnny [bleeping] Damon?
August 29th, 2007 · No Comments
I’ve still held onto my number 18, Johnny Damon, gray road jersey. The one that has BOSTON across the front and the one that has DAMON stitched onto the back. It’s one I wore proudly in 2003, 2004 and 2005. He was possibly my favorite player on those teams (other than 2003/2004 Pedro, who was […]

Really horrible luck
August 27th, 2007 · No Comments
And they thought getting beat with a walk-off homerun in the eighth inning (that’s the SECOND extra inning) of the Little League World Series was bad.
Dalton Carriker, who was hitting .769! entering Sunday’s game, hits a walk-off home run in one of the most exciting baseball games of the year yesterday. Not Little League […]

Rollin’ with Saget? Nah, I’m good.
August 26th, 2007 · No Comments
Bob Saget put out his HBO special this weekend, and I watched 20 minutes of it last night.
I couldn’t get through anymore.
I’ve now watched 15 more minutes this evening, and it’s STILL not good.
I think it’s the fact that he’s trying to fill to do a whole hour on HBO. When we saw him at […]

Three-day weekend
August 24th, 2007 · No Comments
Just hanging around the apartment today during the three-day weekend, doing a little more spackling of the hole in my wall.
Woke up early, as it’s really heating up. Up to 87 in Revere, and while I like it warm and detest AC, I think it’s necessary today. Just shut the window and turned the AC […]

Colbert for President?

Stephen Colbert for President?
I mean, come on.
I was looking at a site that has odds on who will win the ‘08 presidential election, and there’s odds for most candidates who I know, and then some I don’t. And if I don’t know them, that’s saying something.
I clearly know guys like Duncan Hunter, Chuck Hagel, Ron […]

Peace, love, baseball and hoop earrings
August 20th, 2007 · No Comments
The title isn’t my new outlook on life. It’s hers.
I thought I had seen most of the worst things ever until Alyssa Milano, who wears ridiculous hoop earrings and acts poorly in bad movies, wrote this blog entry, which I will cut down for your sake. You can read it all at the link […]

Extreme frustration, kind of
August 20th, 2007 · No Comments
If you don’t like poker or baseball, let me save you some time. Click that little [X] on this window, and be done with this post.
Seriously, nothing like having pocket 10s, raising preflop, having the flop come down 2 5 8 and having a very good chance of having the best hand, barring someone hitting […]

She got a smile?
August 18th, 2007 · No Comments
This has been in my head all day. It’s a very catchy tune.
Now the song is out of my head and into yours. Enjoy.
I saw Stephen Lynch at Mohegan Sun when I went to the O&A Traveling Virus show with Chris, Nikhil and Kevin, and I didn’t think he was all that great that night. […]

…It’s a good thing I don’t bet.
Second walk-off comeback of the year. I’ll take it.
