Little observations, and shiny nuggets of thought.
On Television:
Have Sportscasters gotten completely out of control in their oration? One particularly good comment, about a pro basketball player: "This guy is LITERALLY on Fire!" Oh, he is? Well? Put him out, for fuck's sake...
On Poker:
Who in THE HELL draws Ten-Jack suited, diamonds, sees the flop to reveal two more diamonds, then lays down before turn and river? I want to sit at THAT table. I might have to send a kid to college some day.
On Reality:
Ever watch the credits for your favorite Reality Television show? See how long the list of show writers is? Think about it. Remember the first Reality Television show? "Cops" on Fox. These current shows run what? Two or three seasons? Cops? Over ten years and counting...
On Driving:
Here in Dallas, ever wonder why Everyone tail-gaits? Answer: If you leave a safe distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you, some jackass will invariably move in between you two, creating an even more unsafe distance between vehicles. Road Rage should be a legal defense, not a charge...
On Music:
Remember when the Edge played The Pixies, The Pogues, The Smiths, The Primitives, Concrete Blonde, Smithereens, Depeche Mode, Violent Femmes, They Might Be Giants, Tears for Fears, etc.? Now? Metallica. First sign of the Apocalypse...
On Film:
Funniest movie ever: Blazing Saddles. "After a while every two bit punk with a gun was calling me out. Once I was walking down the street when a voice from behind said "Reach for it, mister!" I whirled around to face... a six year old kid. I dropped my guns in the dirt, turned around, and walked away. Little Bastard shot me in the Ass!".......
