1. Has anyone else noticed that Sportscenter's bottom-screen scroll now has FAVRE as one of the main categories? earlier, i could have said, "as one of the main sports". But now... good old smokin hot Brett is apparently his own sport. Perhaps rightfully so.
so yes, now along with AL, NL, NFL, NBA, NCAAF, TENNIS, & GOLF, there is also FAVRE. Awesome.2. I wonder how hard it was for Mr. Movie Trailer Narrator to say, "Coming soon to a theater near you: The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants . . . Part Two" with a straight face. Part 2? what the hell? who watches this? oh, america. sweet land of liberty.
3. The two most frightening moments of my summer thus far have nothing to do with skydiving. The first was walking to the bathroom while we were camping in West Vahginia, headlamp on, and involuntarily letting my mind wander to Blair Witch Project scenes. The second was walking to the PwC office here in Houston from my hotel . . . at 8 o'clock in the morning. My god, this city is a bit sordid. To minimize getting stared down by fetid homeless men and talked at randomly by crazy homeless women, do not ever stay in the Courtyard Marriott in downtown Houston if you are planning on walking outside farther than the valet stand.
4. Back to espn: I had a nice little respite from reading any college football news (except when Colquitt got arrested), but I finally got the unshakable urge to read some of the speculation. Here's my favorite by Mr. Forde. He's indisputably the best NCAAF writer espn's got. though hopefully we do not start 3 and 3. God help us if we don't beat auburn, florida, OR georgia.
5. Joe sent me this article a couple weeks ago. Love the cheap wine - my parents taught me well. Charles Shaw and Target boxed wine are all I need. (and uptown TJ's is coming soon)
6. Two fiscal policy films are being released this fall: I.O.U.S.A. was shown at the Sundance Film Festival in January and is being widely released in 400 theaters on August 21st (DNC is 8/25) (how can DNC stand for Democratic National Committee and Democratic National Convention at the same time? One should be DNCC. Stupid.). An Inconvenient Tax (no, i'm not kidding...) will be released in November . . . conveniently. (sorry.)
i can only speculate on what specific policies and ideas each movie will try to pummel into our thick, unenlightened heads. however, as someone who has been forced to pay attention to accounting-related news for years now, i can only imagine that these films will be extremely scintillating. So to spare you from feeling obligated to go see them (what? oh.. not even guilt gets people to care anymore?), let me just sum up for you what our fiscal policy should be: less tax, less government. No taxation with representation.? i just made that up.
frankly, i'm sick of having to pay people to tell me to vote once i turn 18 for people who will uphold laws that won't let me drink until i'm 21. If i was still 18 i'd be pissed. Do people even talk about politics sober?
7. Will you sign this please?

3. you fear not nighttime nature nor gravity, but urban homeless. maybe they gazed at you because you have the aura of a thrill seeking yupp with perhaps a few extra expendable duckets to give. or not.
