You're being such a non-pillow right now!

Liz, James, & Kimiko.

I'll be honest with you, I couldn't think of a better title than the one I posted before, so I just finished the quote. Damn, I love 30 Rock.

Last weekend Michigan State went into a hostile Ann Arbor and thoroughly dismantled the Wolverines in a game that I thought was going to be a close, high scoring affair. However, the Spartans did a great job of containing Denard Robinson to the point where they forced him to beat them with his arm. He's an amazing athlete, but his passing skills (especially under duress) aren't there yet, and it showed. Sloppy throws in the red zone and miscues in the middle of the field cost him and MSU went on to win 34-17. Now it's no secret I've always been a HUGE State fan, but it even surprised me how gracious and honest most U of M fans were about this game. Trust me, I've had to hear it MANY times prior to the last few years. Growing up it was very annoying, especially since I was never one to "talk trash." And, being a MSU fan (in football terms, at least), you don't put much faith in the score until the clock runs out. But this year was different. I heard and read a lot of, "We were outplayed, plain and simple" and that was it. No excuses this time around. No real anger. No resentment. Just the realization that Michigan State finally has a stable program in place and may be beginning to dismantle the "little brother" stigma that was so graciously given to them by Mike Hart. Either way, like I say every year prior, "Good game." We'll see what happens next year.

Paul Bunyan still resides in East Lansing.

I finally got around to putting pictures of Eric and Andrea's wedding weekend up. You can check them out by visiting my facebook page or, if you're already a friend, by clicking here. I can't emphasize enough how much fun that entire weekend was. Seriously, folks. It was that good.

In some house news, the big painting work is just about finished and the next major thing is going to be getting the carpet professionally cleaned. We're hoping this might happen some time next week and, after that, we'll see where everything is at in terms of moving in.

Yesterday, All City Chess Club finally released their first track after what seemed like months since the announcement of said group was made public. The "I'm Beaming (Remix)" doesn't disappoint and contains verses from Lupe, The Cool Kids, B.o.B, Asher Roth, Diggy, Blu, Charles Hamilton, and Dosage. It clocks in at nearly 8 mins. long and is a pretty solid debut. Can't wait for the rest (or at LEAST a new Lupe album).

Have I mentioned how much I love having 30 Rock and The Office available on Netflix instant streaming? The answer is "a lot."

How about we end with some words of wisdom?

Thanks, Philosoraptor...

Fader,
