So... tired....
kay:
Me too. 
Been busy, busy busy. For those not in the loop, it's prime soccer season over here so I am like the proverbial beaver, trying to dam up the Tigris. I have read a few books, and I'll review them later this week, but for now let me just react to finally seeing Watchmen: Was that the WORST movie sex scene of all time? I think...

Hi Jamie! All's very well with me. How are you? It's been a long time!
niobe:
Yeah, it's a really cute show. I like it.
STUFF I AM READING (II):\
So, I finished a few of the books on my last blog. In brief, Millar's book was good, but finished quite badly (I don't think he knew how to end it, to be honest); Killing Castro was mediocre pulp; and Hiding man was pretty good.
So, new stuff:

Bah! How dare he. Hip hop??
STUFF I AM READING:
KILLING CASTRO: Lawrence Block. One of the Hard Case Crime series, this book came out the year before the Cuban Missile crisis under a pseudonym. It was re-issued this year, and it's a swift read. Not the biggest fan of Block's work, but so far it's a pretty atmospheric thriller.
THE MURDERER VINE: Shepard Rifkin. Another HCC book, but an unusual...

Really? What's he like?
viking:
Oh, that's a shame. I still like the writing though.
Time for a new post. Except, as usual, I have very little to say that isn't work-related or based on books that I am reading. And I finished all the books I brought on the plane, so i have to go to the store. It's a dull life!

Which fight? There were several.
www.mmaweekly.com is the best place to find updates on the sport. You won't find much coverage on yahoo, ESPN, or foxsports. There is a great show called Inside MMA, that is on the HDnet channel.

You should do one of your patented "Books I've Read" here, but instead on the latest comic books.

Snuggie pub crawl! SO funny. I prefer zombie walks, which don't necessarily involve alcohol, but are pretty amazing.

Thanks.

Yes! Fucked Up IS doing an earlier show at some all-ages venue, but I'm all over the late at the Bottle. 
Well, I was going to post a new blog, but I have been so busy I honestly don;t have anything to say that isn't work related. So, how about this: You tell me something fun for a change?

Like I said my insurance covers the cost of towing. Don't need to pay an extra $100 for something that my insurance already does.
fearthereaper:
Not me.
I actually just don't care that much. I'm pretty down on the whole US team situation.

I can only hope they'll someday buy it.

Yep. I remember being on the wrong side of one of these against Falkirk two years ago I think it was.
I really thought you guys would have won that game, based on the fact your team is quite good, Celtic have played poorly against you all season, and Celtic seem to never ever do well in the League Cup.
For a 0-0 though, it was really entertaining I must say, and the penalties made it all the more dramatic.
