Huuuuuh. That just looks weird. I may have to go hang out at a sports-ish bar and watch the ads.

Why tolerate a bunch of screaming USC/UCLA/Laker/Clipper fans when you can simply watch from work?

Because it's an excuse to eat the yummy tomato cheese tart and drink some Horny Devil or Delirium? But now you have ruined it.

I don't really like the ad; I might have liked it on a big screen, under the influence.

More Coltrane fuel. SFW, but creepy (sound and video).

Yesterday was the NYC Marathon, and I FINISHED IT!!!

I had never run more than 12 miles (though I did that a lot), and was pretty scared about not finishing. It wasn't a blistering speed time or anything, but I finished.

Other than childbirth, that was the hardest physical thing I've ever done. My legs hurt today like never before. I don't know how all you people do those endurance races. Damn.

Better late than never....congrats!

There was a woman at the halloween party that I attended that nailed that costume.

Only Freud knows how I misread this line.

That commercial strikes me as offensively misogynist. (The similarly-themed ones by a vodka company -- Svedka? -- also bothers me.) What's next -- a robot chick whose body opens up to give you a Domino's pizza?

Svedka...is that the ones with the billboards in NYC that say something like "preferred over food by socialites"???????

Translation: The missus caught me rubbing my upper thigh during this commercial during the Kansas game Saturday.

I know coffee purists would tell me the flavored stuff isn't really coffee.

Does flavored coffee have calories or is it (virtually) calorie free like regular coffee? Obviously, I grasp that adding flavored creamer or syrup adds calories -- I am asking about plain black coffee that is "Amaretto flavored" or "Dark Chocolate Berry flavored."

I don't think it adds calories.

Stairs are always the worst thing after a marathon. Glad the rest of you is okay.

This year my parents (!?!!!???!!!) picked me up at the finish line. For various reasons (feeling fluish, hot/humid weather, I am getting old) I felt rough at the end of the race.

After finally finding the rents my dad informed me that they parked more than a mile away from the finish line. And that getting there required me to go down about 150 steps by the James J. Hill mansion. There is no railing for the steps either.

I nearly cried.

I think in those circumstances I would have cried. Cause crying gets the hurt out of you.
