What Could Be Romantic to Ponson?
NWS says tomorrow's weather will be "Haze." Gross.
But what about the News....and the Nuge.
The Orioles got swept by the Devil Rays and the fat guy is the first one to go. The Sports Guy had a few columns last week that I missed.
I now know a lot about these guys, these guys and these guys. Ha ha, D Boon is fat and gross. Also, apparently when Husker Du opened for Minor Threat (whaaaaaa?), Bob Mould made fun of straight edge Ian by scattering Aspirin all over the stage, which is about as funny as pop-pop asking for your hair.

Infrequency and Indie Punching. Not Professionalism.

I think the NWS is just looking out their window towards the apartment. "The forecast for tomorrow is: heat waves. Heat waves bending the light, literally rising from ugly apartment buildings. And they look like puddles in the street."
I'm glad a google image search for "the nuge" produces results.
The Phillies are still barely in it. I trust the Marlins will stop by and step on my heart. That's right, Jack McKeon in stillettos, stepping into my chestal cavity.
On the plus side, offices are air conditioned. I was going to link to an image on this page, but context is valuable.
I don't think there were any lenses in Jack McKeon's frames, I'll have to look for that card when I get home.....and all my Phil Nevin "Rated Rookie" cards.
Ha, that guy's head is in a basket.
Norm Chad sez: "I'm not sure Stephen A. Smith needs to be miked before he goes on-air." IF NO ONE LIKES HIM WHY IS HE ON TV? Why can't a group of broadcasters and journalists get together and exile he and Max Kellerman to Elba. Why do we need cable again?
Hmm... I thought Jumbulingham's page would be a lot more interesting.
You know, without ESPN, you've been missing previews for Stephen A.'s new talk show... "Quite Frankly." I can't find a link, it's of note that googling "quite frankly", the first two results are quotes from Dan Quayle and Vince McMahon. Awesome.
I would enjoy a show entitled "Quite Frankly" that was hosted by this Frank and it would come on right after "Clyde Symposium."
Stallone and Chevy Chase make me wish celebrity-crossover success wasn't so well-orchestrated these days.
DCist laments DC's lack of snowball stands. Personally, I couldn't care less. I prefer Rita's anyway.
Azlo, who the hell is playing Fort Reno tonight?
Also, things were looking up for the Phillies, until I saw they're playing the Astros next. No big deal, except the opposing pitchers are Pettitte, Oswalt, and Clemens. We have Jon Lieber, pitching, I think, all three nights.
Seems interesting, but I don't feel like registering.
I see that Jon Lieber did not choose the Lazer Background for his Lifetouch school photo. I never got that one either, my parents made me get the one with the trees. Lazers were cooler....and always will be.
I dislike Rita's but don't miss snowball stands. My best memories of them involved making out with my high school girlfriend inside of one....not enjoying and Egg Custard or "Skylite." I'm glad I've moved on to more sophisticated treats, like frozen bananas.
Guess they heard you're in the market.
Yeah, that's what I've been waiting for. Totally.
This guy is opening for Ben Harper at the 9:30 Club. He played Andy's a couple years back, and I occasionally get mailings from him. Apparently, under the influence of 1.5 hour IPA, I am a fan.

HELLO CHILDREN
[Working title.]
Dave Eggers
In a sprawling and epic novel, Eggers illuminates the history of the civil war in Sudan through the eyes of two young boys, Valentino Achak Deng and Thiep Angui. Both become refugees in war-ravaged southern Sudan, and their travels, truly Biblical in scope, bring them in contact with enemy soldiers, with liberation rebels, with hyenas and lions, with disease and starvation and with deadly murahaleen (militias on horseback)—the same sort who currently terrorize Darfur. Ultimately the boys find safety in Kenya and, just after the millennium, are finally resettled in the United States. In 2003, Eggers and Valentino Achak Deng traveled by cargo plane to southern Sudan, where they managed to find his parents—who he had not seen in 17 years. An account of this trip was published recently in the Believer.
Based closely on the actual experiences of Deng and Angui, Hello Children is heartrending and astonishing, filled with adventure, suspense, tragedy and, finally, triumph.
FEBRUARY 2006 $22 450 PAGES
My preview - "Eggers fends off criticism of memoir-y postpostmodernism and snarky tendencies by turning ultra-sincere. Also, trends liking Africa."
Did you say there was an American Apprel store in DC?
It's coming soon, the one in Baltimore is open.
Ah. Spelling error in today's title.
hah
