note to self: bring some music.

matt nestberg, whom i had the prescience to call 'half-hearted' (below), is suddenly, mysteriously, suspiciously sick.
i now dub him, "un-hearted."
as long as we get his newfangled espresso blend in time for the jam, HE's the one missing out.
in all seriousness (yes, i can do that, on occasion) feel better dude. ...

the supposedly hip jennifer 8. lee (real name) writes in the grey lady about the "man date." i have certainly been on one of those. ridiculous coinage, that term, but very resonant in its specifics, as laid out in the piece. odd, how two perfectly cool (even married!) male friends ...

the fur flip-flops are now history. they were gnarly and all, but alas, too small. the best part, particularly after suffering buyer's remorse for shelling out $30 a week earlier, is the selling price: $68 on ebay, including shipping. chyyeeeaaa. handsome profit there, thank you.
so to recap, THESE flip-flops are ...

mah frehn jaymes suggests that we may not be that far removed from the likes of sandy berger:
Please. C'mon. Who among us hasn't shoved classified documents into his pants and jacket by accident? It happens.
You're reviewing some notes -- OK, classified notes, but it's not like they're the secret formula ...

so james lileks, my all-time favorite columnist, discovers unwittingly one of those descriptors that spurs a knee-jerk wince of nostalgia. good writers do that, i'm told. gives you whiplash.
The desert speaks to me. And it says: I will stick you and make you bleed. If I’m in a good ...

so my brother thinks he can blog.
clearly, he doesn't get it. philosophical tangents? classical quotes? general bloggy seriousness? who DOES that?
seriously, after a day of pan-frying my brain like so many relativist grits, i would never submit myself to the pressure of churning real content.

bid here and help me refurbish the ...

junk post. something funny is happening with my buttons.
like when your knuckle gets stuck in a dangerously small bottle neck, and you can FEEL your idle afternoon SLIPPING AWAY. "martha, the vaseline." like that. except i can't delete posts. so consider this a window into my unguarded soul. filthy blog...

when i think about smart moves to rest your star players before the playoffs, i think about moves like this.
key stat: 24 minutes for gnash.
