It’s nice to come out of the hidey-hole, broken avec mouth wide-open, long enough to pollute Desipio with a series of rambling missives, shiny and slinky and pimply and hurling shouts left and right to my righteous believers in the Profundity of Early-Resignation.


Nice.


Nice and functional.


It’s nice that Andy has enough compassion and compression in his gait to allow me the forum, though the rumors are true: certain Polaroid photographs which have somehow come into my possession make him my absolut(e) creature in this matter.


No regrets, Coyote.


But it was quite a weekend, some of the best football I’ve ever watched, time out of mind spent teaching a Filipino bass player how to muster Television and Carl Perkins tunes, with a 16-year old boy stuck in my room playing a video game that may or may not include voice-overs from Ray Liotta.


And when I say “hit it,” I want you to go two up and two back, double-cross, and come out of it with the Rifleman.


Yr looking good.

The footy was out of sight this weekend, the Peyton Manning Robot was a tasty thing, and it was fun to see Chi’s own Donny McNabb toy with Satan’s own Green Bay Packers before putting things to rest.


It was also pleasant to note that the Oxygen channel was kind enough to offer a truncated version of “Party Girl” opposite the Cheifs/Colts game; editing out blue words like “Gawdammit” but leaving Parker Posey‘s topless scene in. Thumbs up, Oprah.


Literally.


I cannot bloody stop listening to this album:




Read this bit, then go here.


And now, because nobody’ll read this, some NBA links …


Marc Berman appears to have lost his got-damn mind.


Isiah‘er made a solid trade, throwing two first-round picks, cap space, a (should-be) lottery selection and three-million bucks Phoenix’ way, all in order to ensure his Knickerbockers stay mediocre and semi-competitive for years to come up. Thumbs up, Oprah.


But as a coach?


The cat can’t stop laughing at funny hats



How’s he gunna keep a straight face around Dikembe Mutombo?

The league is finally getting around to solving the whole East/West mess.


I’d involve Mike Bloomfield




Chris McCosky gets the Notebook Of le Week Award.


Why won’t BBC Americ’er bring the Young Ones back?


Dave D has a nice look at Phil Jackson, and Peter May drip-drip-drips it with Rick A. Williams.


Until next time, you can find me here. So long, suckers!
