May 19

It seems like I'm always commenting on either work or sports. Today is more of the same. For some reason, I was tired all day. Long story short, I should be busy the next couple of days making some new spots. We'll see how they turn out.

It was a Tuesday, so you know some new music/movies came out. Nothing I was too interested in on the DVD side, but CD-wise I picked up the new Iron & Wine CD - a collection of rarities, B-Sides, etc. - and Method Man & Redman's new Blackout 2 album. Good times, indeed.

Lastly I headed on back home for some dinner and a ton of sports. The Tigers, behind strong pitching from Dontrelle Willis (!?!?!?), shutout an extremely hot Texas Rangers team, 4-0. How good was Willis? He pitched into the 7th inning, striking out 5, allowing only 1 hit, and, at one point, retiring 17 straight hitters. Wow. Welcome back, if only for tonight. On the hockey side of things, the Red Wings survived in O.T. after a mistake by Chicago lead to a 3 on 1 and a goal by Samuelsson. It was a fitting end, given that the play RIGHT before that, Osgood scared the hell out of me. And in the NBA, the Lakers (BOOO) beat the Nuggets after 2 bone headed plays in the final minute of the game. You'd think professional basketball players could at least inbounds a basketball without turning it over, especially at a time when you just gave up a lead you'd had the majority of the game...but no. I hate to say it, but Denver choked. I hope this doesn't continue to be a pattern for them in the playoffs. On the brightside, this was only game one and, really, the Lakers did what they were supposed to do - hold home court advantage. There's still plenty of time.

Honestly, I was hoping to get a call from the Apple store at some point, but it never came. Maybe tomorrow.

Go back baby the way you came,
