the internet finds new ways to eat up my less than valuable time


i was gonna spend today writing a long winded and pointless rant about Braves GM Frank Wren detailing all his various fuck ups since taking over for John Schuerholz. and then i was gonna work on my top 25 worst uniforms in college football rankings (i've got about 50 teams that i'm trying to wade through) and then finally i was gonna make a wish list of players that i'd like to see the Atlanta Falcons draft. luckily i don't get paid to write my blog and i can fuck off and do nothing all day and it's totally ok. so instead of being productive (if you call what i do here productive) i've been playing with my lala.com account and making playlists. last night i went Post-Punk crazy and today i'm all about some Garage Rock...a genre that is near and dear to me heart as i wasted several years of my youth playing in a garage band here in Athens (it's also where the stupid and confusing blogger nickname comes from...in case you were wondering). anyways lala is a little lacking in the garage rocker-y ans so i wasn't able to include a lot of my favorite songs. but still i think i was able to put together a pretty kick ass playlist all the same.

so if you are at work and fucking around near and computer then enjoy the tunes.


so i skipped out on last night's Auburn/UGA game thanks in part to fact that Athens was under Tornado watch when the game started. also noone wanted to go with me and watch the Dawgs lose. and thirdly i totally had forgotten it was Wednesday and that means LOST and no meaningless college basketball game stands a chance against John Locke.


i listened to most of the first half on the radio while my two dogs barked at the wind. about the time that Auburn had a 27 point lead i decided to turn and game off. i checked back in the 4th quarter expecting the Tigers to be 100-20, but instead UGA had decided to attempt and make a game of it. it was at this point that i was happy i hadn't gone because the stress of watching Georgia get within 6 points would have driven even an apathetic basketball fan like myself into a nervous breakdown. besides, LOST totally ruled last night. oh well, Auburn still won and they've got a winning record in the SEC. yeah, i know...that sounds totally weird. who know? maybe some miracle could get this team into the NCAA tournament thereby guaranteeing i blow 30 dollars that i don't have in a tournament pool.
