remember

Wednesday, June 27th, 2007

PA and Dubay started out with KG trade talk. They played a bunch of KG highlights.

I remember when Kevin Harlan was the Timberwolves radio play-by-play guy. Man, he was good. That’s back in the Marbury days. Man, that could have been good. KG + Stephan Marbury…

What a mess the team has been. I’m not even going to get into it – it’s not that big of a deal to me. I’m not a big bball fan anyway.

update

major photo update on the ambassador’s photo section.

if the melodies ever get online, i’m sure they’ll send photos too.

for those keeping score at home, the ambassador site is still slightly more visited than the melody site: 816 v. 758.

So, I just took a week off, why not another one? It’s VBT week and I’ll be plenty busy. Not only that, but today, Katie T (ie, KT) insulted me and then refused to talk to me. What a day. I mean, what do I do bad? Tell me what I do bad. She apologized and it’s cool, but it will probably take me the rest of the week to get over it.

Just kidding.

Hey, I just took a week off. How great is that?

While not totally sound proof, I couldn’t make out what my mom was saying when she was standing in front of me, and I couldn’t hear my parents calling me from one room over. Not bad. I might keep them…

People ask me what I use my PDA for. Well, I’m working on a comprehensive list, but one of the uses is to record things. Presenting…

Jeff Ronne: He Lifted Me.

FBC Choir: God Loved the World.

Safari for Windows recently released and already reached over one million downloads. I’m about to give it a shot.

Well, let’s see:

Thursday

Get out the brooms… San Antonio Spurs (West) swept the hapless Cleveland Cavaliers (East) out of the finals in what PA called the most uninteresting NBA Finals since, oh, mid 70’s when he started watching ball. Neither the NBA or NHL playoffs did well with TV ratings. The NHL had a game on NBC that was NBC’s lowest rated show ever. Ouch.

In a less-notable sweep, at least less-notable nationwide, the Twins swept the Braves out of town. AL usually beats up on the NL in inter-league play. It was rematch of the ‘91 World Series, which, I found out, is considered one of the if not the best World Series in MLB history. Wow. Didn’t know that. You can listen to PA and Dubay talk about it if you wish.

We now enter the Sports Abyss on the PA and Dubay show until NFL training camp starts.

Friday

Almost took my first ever spill off of a roof. I stopped to think about it and decided to pass. I slid about three feet – not much, but it was only about six feet to the edge. I’m sure the ten foot drop wouldn’t have killed me, but it didn’t interest me much either.

Ah, nothing like a short little twelve hour work day to kick off the weekend. Just think about all the money I’m making…

 History

Well, I’m not sure if it was this exact week, but the Ambassadors and Melodies were at camp this week. This week, two years ago, the 2005 Ambassadors lost their piano player. I can still remember the look on John’s face. The piano player (he’ll go unnamed) wrote farewell notes to most if not all of the other guys, but not to me. I wasn’t disappointed at all.

Done

I think I’m done. Oh, for those of you who don’t know, you can comment on stuff. I know it’s boring, but you took the time to read it. Your fault, not mine.

stereo: dead.

Well, what was your favorite Pioneer DEH P3700MP memory?

Yes, that’s right, somebody helped themselves to my mom’s (previously my old) stereo early this morning.

Van: unlocked.

Faceplate: on.

Stereo: dead.

My stereo’s faceplate was also on, but, fortunately, my Scion was locked.

If anyone ever says anything about my pulling my faceplate out of my car, I think I can just pop them in the mouth. It’s a pretty easy way to save $150-200:

function saveBigMoney() {

if ($faceplate == “removed” && $car == “locked”) {

print “You just saved big money!!!!”;

}

else {

print “Uh, you might want to rethink that.”;

}

}

Lilac chaser optical illusion.

Pretty spiffy.
