So I wrote out the Bests of 07 and wasn’t really happy with it so I’m not posting it. Maybe it’s because I’ve grown ashamed of my taste or maybe it’s just because my memory isn’t that good, who knows. I liked Superbad and Juno for movies. I liked the new Spoon, Bruce Springsteen, and Motion City Soundtrack albums. And finally, I liked Curb, Sopranos, 30 Rock, The Office, and Friday Night Lights. I wouldn’t call it a shocking list. Let’s hammer out some bullets before I go run and listen to Stern talking about how David Spade got a 22 year old Playboy Playmate preggers (and no, it wasn’t the one who was all over me in Lincoln, NE).
• I ate a lot of food on the east coast. I had a Cheesesteak in the suburbs north of Philly (close as I could get), pizza in New York (not a huge deal, but it counts), Italian food in Jersey (one of the top 10 meals of my life), and average wedding cake at my cousin’s wedding. Now you see why I run.
• I’m gonna miss Jonathan Stewart, if for no other reason the laughs he provides every time he barrels over a safety at the end of a 14 yard run. Sigh…
• Speaking of the Ducks (and I’ll be brief), I still have no idea what to make of this year’s basketball team. They go and lose three stupid games (one without Bryce Taylor, but still), Tajuan Porter goes frigid, Joevan Catron tears a muscle in his foot, and then they beat Arizona in Tucson comfortably, take down a good Cal team, and come away with a resumé win against Stanford despite the Lopez twins completely dominating. I have no clue. This weekend up in Washington (Thursday, Sunday) should be a good barometer. And yes, I know I need to move on.
• Despite the strike, Friday Night Lights is inexplicably still on. Not only that, it’s gotten really good, mostly because they got rid of both the Landry murder thing and the Jason Street/Lila thing. Boom, I just checked, another new one this Friday. Hot damn, I love Dillon, TX.
• I like that Katie Holmes acted like she had a semi-lobotomy recently when she was on Letterman. Makes me feel good about all that Scientology has to offer. Also, I liked/got creeped out watching Tom Cruise talk about the little religion that could.
• I ate at the Boneyard Bistro last night and came away very full and very confident that I’ll be back sometime soon. Yackie, defying the odds, ordered fried mac n cheese with her meal.
It’s windy, I’m tired. Ouuuuuuut.
