Era = End

I started a blog on this site nearly 5 years ago. Before Lindsey, before Unicel... before a lot of stuff really. Unfortunately, Xanga just isn't the way I'm going at this point, so I'm going to bring this little experiment to a close.

Never fear, however, I'm still going to be blogging... it's just that I'll be blogging elsewere. Blogspot gives me a great deal of advantages that Xanga (even as a subscriber) can't or won't.

• People who aren't a member of my blogging network can finally comment.
  It always seemed strange that the only people who could comment on something I'd written were Xanga members when roughly half the people that visited the site weren't Xanga members. This won't be a problem anymore.
  
• All kinds of cool stuff can be added
  Instead of one small custom module that I can ostensibly do anything I want with (ha... I wish), I'll be able to add any number of things.
  
• Blogspot is cooler than Xanga
  This point is pretty much not up for debate.
  
• MySpace Sucks
  Neither is this one.

Anyway, I'd encourage you all to follow the link below to see what I've got up now. I'll be updating there from now on. I'll be mostly posting about the same stuff I did here... music, baseball, football... all done with that tasty flair of sarcasm that I bring to everything I touch.

Click here to go to my new location. It's really quite nifty.

Been a While

In the past month I've been:

• Moving into our house (move day is Saturday... yay!)
• Following the Twins religiously (we need a DH, and Neshek RULES)
• Working (the less said about that, the better)
• Trying to fix Stu's computer (yes, it's taking that long...)
• Overall enjoying life

That's things in a nutshell.

There will be more when I can think of something interesting to say.

The Greatest Thing Ever to Happen in the History of Movies (or Maybe All of Existence)

There will be a t.A.T.u. movie.

Yes, that t.A.T.u. (note the funked up capitalization... I don't know why it's done, but it seems very important). The Russian/not-really-lesbian/nowhere-resembling-talented-but-at-least-their-producers-gave-them-a-catchy-song-or-two group from... what... 2002 (good heavens... it's been 5 years? now I feel old...).

According to Variety, the movie is:

Set against a background of music, Internet chatrooms and hedonistic Russian nightlife, it's the story of a lonely American teenager in Moscow who becomes friends with a local girl over their shared obsession with pop band t.A.T.u.

I can't think of a more moronic premise for a movie, but I have to admit a bit of curiosity.

Just In Case You Missed It

I watch precisely zero TV. While this gives me plenty of time to waste on the 8 billion other wasteful ventures I squander it on, it also leaves me sorely behind the times on nearly everything...

...but especially commericals.

In case you missed it, this might be the weirdest commercial I've seen since the banned Sprotska commercials. (yeah, I know there's the cat decapitation one, too... but that one really isn't that funny)

COBRAAAAA!! SUPER ROCK'N'ROLL

'Sober' is a pretty decent song, coincidentally.

FAIL.

...so Ramon Ortiz got sent to the bullpen.

That what happens when you give up a homerun to ROYCE CLAYTON.

Seriously... there's something seriously wrong with that.

For some reason, my mind had me convinced that it was Thursday yesterday.

I was sad to learn that it was, in fact, Monday.

Damn you, subconcious...
