Long Time No See

Wow! I have been gone for a month... and no one has noticed. Talk about tragic. I guess I am just a blip in the realm of the internet.

So what to write about there is all kinds of craziness going on...

Politics: I guess Bush is worried that Chancellor Merkel might try spank him and so has come up with his ridiculous Dilbert-esque plan of holding multi-year meetings to potentially address the potential problem of climate change. Oh and then there is the whole Iraq War timeline that never was. Literally sometimes I think the news is more like a comedy sketch than a report on the state of our reality.

Entertainment: I have seen several movies in the past week including Pirates of the Caribbean Take III and The Namesake. The former sucked big time. A pirate king? an octopus pirate? a voodoo Calypso? I was bored half way through the movie, but are you allowed to leave a sold out movie? The Namesake was relatively speaking better. But I didn't get the mother? I mean she did nothing except cook all the time. Yeah, was not loving that. And the slutty librarian. I didn't dig her either.

Sports: It is my belief that basketball players should be covered by SI more than People magazine. But apparently Tony Parker breaks the mold. In any case, the Pistons are giving me a serious case of ulceritis. And the Spurs irritate the crap out of me. Here's to hoping Game 5 keeps LeBron in check.

Books: I finished reading Never Let Me Go. It was good. But sad, but good. On the other hand, The Time Traveller's Wife, I was less thrilled about.
