good luck with your layoffs, all right? i hope your firings go really, really well...

you're all psyched because i'm not going to talk about the pathetic celtics who aren't worth the energy expended by my fingers... woo-hoo, no more celts!!

but there are some things i'm curious about... like why the nfl won't let the new coach of the 49ers wear a suit and tie on the sideline out of respect to his father, who coached the niners 30 years ago... the league says he can only wear "league-sanctioned" apparel like that jedi master sweatshirt belichick always wears... same guys who wouldn't let jake plummer wear pat tillman's number on his shoulder pad last year because it violated the league-wide uniform code... there's really nothing more to say beyond the fact that the league, the biggest money-making pro sports league in the world, has no patience for those who dare not drink the kool-aid... it's kind of sad isn't it?

anyone had the lays chips in the can, pringles-style? they're good, but i can't imagine pringles ever putting any kind of their chips in a half-full bag that you can smell the grease from before you even open it... which i guess means more power to pringles, right?

there's actually hockey going on right now... the lowell lock monsters, the team i used to cover, is in the ahl semifinals against the providence bruins in a best-of-7 and the series is all tied up with game 3 in lowell on wednesday... you all probably forgot hockey even exists (i did for a while), but this is kind of cool... the people who run the team in the front office are way cool, the coach is a great guy and most of the players who are still there from when i was around them are all right... i still don't know what a lock monster is 3 years later, but the mascot is 9 feet tall and called louie, if that helps... anyway, i hope they win...

mike judge, the dude who created beavis and butthead and the milton cartoon that spawned office space, has a new movie coming out this summer... it's got luke wilson and takes place in the future and that's all i know, but i would probably go if was about some guy reading the phone book... you want a good laugh? click this...

the yankees have won three straight, thereby making them the odds-on faves to win the world series again... it's as if all those terminal problems that had completely ruined their season 4 days ago never even existed, right? good thing the sox built that 6-game cushion, even if they do have a player named cla...

and also, as the fabulous chacha mentioned in her last note, hats off for a moment for the clubhouse kid who died the other night... just an awful story...

finally, i just want to make a quick mention of the hairy guy from nyc... he's angry at me right now because he thinks i owe him money or something (can't imagine where he came up with that idea) so i want to give him a little bit of free publicity by directing you all here, to this pretty damn cool site... he'd do it himself, but he's having his back waxed right now and none of you can possibly imagine the sheer physics of that activity... and that, as they say, is that... viya con dios, celts... lates.

that cartoon site is fucking hilarious. it should be on nbc or something, maybe after friends or cheers. man, jmg's rules to live by are always the best, it almost makes me wish i was a red sox fan in real life and not just in the movies.
