Nice shooting.

Thank you.

It was difficult, because of the early light. It was already bright, but not bright enough for the automatic mode. I put the camera on the railing of the bridge and made several shots with different times (0.2, 0.5, 1.0 seconds).

LeBron clearly doesn't have the scumbag quotient of Kobe. But Kobe is the superior player, by far. I think I hate Kobe more than any athlete, except A-Rod and Barry Bonds*.

I hate those two with a Bush Administration-level of loathing.

Lebron was talking about the game and was like "Man, I saw a million different defenses from them" and I'm thinking, Hey Lebron how about passing a little (I'm more of a Isiah Thomas, Magic Johnson, Steve Nash kinda player fan)

I miss Larry Bird.

Jack Denfeld

03:54 / 22.05.06

You remember one of his last games before he retired, where his back was a mess, and he came on the floor and was passing and making plays like nobody's business? I miss all those 80s greats.

Jack Denfeld

03:55 / 22.05.06

especially this guy.

Every Bird/Magic game was an event. It was great. Even the backup guys were better back then: Parrish, McHale, Ainge. I would argue that those celtics teams were even better than the Jordan Bulls teams, because they went deeper.

Jake, Colossus of Clout

04:34 / 22.05.06

Additionally, Magic had Worthy and Kareem.

Jordan's Bulls, Magic's Lakers and Larry's Celtics are the three best basketball teams I've had the good fortune to watch.

My elder New England friends tell me that Bill Russell's Celtics were the best teams ever, though. And that Russell/Chamberlain was just as sweet as Bird/Magic. Wish I could have seen it.

Do I kill these things by talking about sports, being up too ridiculously late, or by chance?

Bill Laimbeer was indeed the shit, Denfeld. He's the Kirby Puckett of basketball: He succeeded despite being athletically inferior to his rivals. The heart of a honey badger beat in his chest.

Sport really bores my socks off (other shifters might feel the same way).

Fuck, if I knew you guys were talking about the Pistons/Cavaliers, I probably wouldn't have spent the last few hours putting together a huge narrative over in the Temple detailing Phallicus's adventures at the Mind-Body University and it's lessons re: the mind/spirit/body divisions.

I too have been tired of the constant Lebron coverage. Why is it neccessary for every clip shown at commecial breaks to be footage of that jerk? Like seeing him make a simple layup is shocking, attention grabbing footage.

Tonight: Good

Versus

Evil!

My TV is booked from 7:15 to 1:00. What a great day to be a sports fan.

21:26 / 22.05.06

bahumbug!

Jake, Colossus of Clout

21:28 / 22.05.06

You know you want to watch Sox/Yanks and the NBA Playoffs! Two! Game! Sevens!

It's so on.

Saint Keggers

21:29 / 22.05.06

nope, 24 is on tonight. I gotta findout if Jack is going to pull another one out of the fire. The suspenses is poking me.

Jake, Colossus of Clout

21:30 / 22.05.06

Bah humbug. That's TiVoable! This stuff is live!

Saint Keggers

21:34 / 22.05.06

What are you talking about? Ofcourse 24 is live. You've got that digital clock ticking away before and after each commercial break just to prove it. (Commercial breaks is when everybody rushes to the bathroom.)

Jake, Colossus of Clout

21:38 / 22.05.06

Wow! So who was the president that got killed earlier? I'm confused.

Saint Keggers

21:45 / 22.05.06

check you PMs

alas

23:57 / 22.05.06

I'm here to not talk about sports (although Bill Laimbeer was a huge great to my partner-in-crime)...so any other non-sports folks, we can take this place over! Now's our chance!

Korso Jerusalem

00:08 / 23.05.06

Yes! We must rise against the grown men who get paid a million times our combined salaries to play a game!

Jake, Colossus of Clout

01:22 / 23.05.06

Good 1, Evil 0.

Howzitgoin'? I can talk about things other than sports. Sometimes. Just probably not if Denfeld shows up. I like honey badgers. And beer. And the Wu. And all sorts of things.

Jack Denfeld

01:24 / 23.05.06

Hey y'all.

Jake, Colossus of Clout

01:27 / 23.05.06

Speak of the devil! Seen any of the Spurs/Mavs game?

Jack Denfeld

01:28 / 23.05.06

God damnit!!!!! I just read the 'dark day for journalism' thread over at switchboard. GODDAMNIT I HATE THOSE MOTHERFUCKERS I HATE THOSE MOTHERFUCKERS I HATE THOSE MOTHERFUCKERS, the press is supposed to be one of the biggest part of our checks and balances, and if most of the mainstream media wasn't lazy enough, now the ones trying to work hard have to fear having their phone calls tapped, sources outed, and possible arrest if they "compromise anything to do with national security". GODDAMN I HATE THOSE MOTHERFUCKERS.

Jake, Colossus of Clout

01:31 / 23.05.06

No kiddin'. I had to run to a job interview right after reading that, and, thankfully, the guy I was supposed to talk to got hung up so it's postponed. I don't think I was in any state of mind to "sell myself." It's one sickening thing after another with these fuckers.

Saint Keggers

01:32 / 23.05.06

Hi Alas, Jake, Jack.

24 rocked!

Jack Denfeld

01:33 / 23.05.06

Yo keggers.

Jake, Colossus of Clout

01:35 / 23.05.06

Hi Keggers! How many people did Jack Bauer kill today?

There is good news, however. The Sox shitstomped the Yanks and Barbaro is going to live to be a hot horsey sex machine for the rest of his life.

Just landed a new job myself, working as a waiter.

Let me tell you a little secret:

The people who serve you your food and clean your dishes? They're all on mushrooms.
Every last one of them.
Except the maintenence lady.
She's into Ketamine.

Jake, Colossus of Clout

01:38 / 23.05.06

I've worked in a ton of restaurants, and this seems to be the norm: Wait staff/Hostesses: Speed of some kind. Bartenders: Drunk. Cooks: Drunk and stoned. Owners: Way coked out.

Saint Keggers

01:39 / 23.05.06

Tree Jake. The answer is three. Or more.

Saint Keggers

01:40 / 23.05.06

Dammit Jake, that's the best pinata ever!

Jack Denfeld

01:41 / 23.05.06

Waiter brigade! High five! I'm waitin' tables too until I one day have a bankroll big enough to just play cards. We could definetely clear out my work if they gave drug tests or IQ tests.

Saint Keggers

01:42 / 23.05.06

I may be applying for a job at a telephone relay service for the deaf.
