The First Scores

Actually, before I start, here is Jim’s bracket.
Jim picked California, which I know I said, but you know, just in case.
And for those of you who didn’t watch any games (I’m all pretending like I watched soooo many games, when actually I watched zero:p), and aren’t going to go look up who won…
Gold boxes are [...]

Ides of March (Madness)

It’s the Ides of March, and you know what that means. Yup, that’s right, tournament brackets due tomorrow!
I actually mistated, I need them before noon EST, 9am PST. Bad time sense coupled with bad math, lethal combination.

Know-Nothing March Madness Thing

Hey y’all, it’s March Madness! You know what that means; it’s bracket-filling time:) Y’all probably already know I lurve March Madness, with the one game win-or-lose deal and the excitement! So I have a little Know-Nothing contest I guess. It’s a no downside, not too much upside sort of thing. [...]

World Baseball Classic

I’m watching Korea vs Taiwan in the World Baseball Classic (think World Cup for soccer/football) right now. The game’s being played on ESPN2, delayed though. As usual, Taiwan is being called Chinese Taipei. Sheesh, I’m so sick and tired of that. Wikipedia has a page for World Baseball Classic that talks [...]

Tricky!

We’re watching Men’s Snowboard Cross make its Olympic debut. Snowboard Cross (is that the best they could do, name-wise?) is basically racing on snowboards on a course, looks like 4 at a time. But doooood, it could be so much better!!! Have these people never played SSX?!?! I mean, they have [...]

In Which I Win TV Watching Gold

Been watching a lot of Olympics lately. Basically, if there’s something on TV, we have the TV on on the side at least. It’s been a lot of TV, maybe more than usual! (I know, shock and awe.) I usually like to watch these international sporting spectacles, they’re fun. [...]

Goofy Olympics Coverage

I like the Olympics. It’s fun stuff, and if you’re not interested in one sport, pretty soon there’ll be another on. And there’s lots of sports that I’d normally never see, so that’s cool. But doooood, there’s way much “human interest” stories, that are v. heavy handed. Like right now there’s [...]

Actually they didn’t change from my previous posting:p
So the final prize was going to be stickers or a postcard, but then I remembered when we went to the Berkeley Farmer’s Market and the honey dude was selling [...]
