The other thing is that I am allergic to the smoke (coughing fits and hacking for minutes) and I am taller than the majority of people (at least smokers) so it sets up the perfect scenario of me inhaling smoke accidentally and having to stop what I am doing for a good couple minutes while I recover.

Sometimes I go around MUNI or the like and pick up random junk. Since there’s no where to conveniently chuck, I wind up with arms full of trash, waiting for a garbage can to pop up. This mentality is particularly troublesome in places like New York City. I’ve chased windblown newspapers down the sidewalk. I often feel like an idiot.

BLOODY ENGLISH

It was on my key chain, and the key chain had a little (very little) knife on it contained in a wee multipurpose tool given to me by an uncle. It had my name on it and everything. Anyway, I was late for my flight, and they wouldn’t let me past without handing over the chain, so there it was. Since I was on my way back to the States, there was no getting it back. I wasn’t broken up about it or anything.

I forget the O’Neil motto, but their crest is a bloody hand on a (I think) beach… Or maybe it’s over an ocean, not sure. This comes from how the O’Neils became kings of Ireland. The test of strength was to swim out to an island and back, the guy first back being deemed worthy to take the crown. All men swam with knives and when it became clear that some other fellow was going to make it first, the swimming O’Neil cut off his own hand and threw it onto the shore just in time for the win. I’m going to guess that didn’t actually happen, but it’s still a good story.

So, I’ve had Guinness here and I’ve had Guinness in the UK/Ireland and am I crazy in thinking that it’s a thousand times better over there? I asked a few bartenders about it and they all said the shipping process ruins the beer, but they may have been partisan. Most other people say they can’t tell the difference (but they aren’t really Guinness drinkers).

I’m a whiskey man, through and through.

Be part of a Giants Flash Mob commercial (email from the G's)

We are orchestrating a Giants Flash Mob event next Tuesday, March 23rd. If you’re not familiar with a flash mob, you can search YouTube for some recent examples of the popular “Flash Mob” phenomenon.
  
We need 200 or more of our most die-hard Giants fans to gather and sing “Bye Bye Baby” and assemble to create a formation for a stunning visual to be captured and released through various social media. The actual Flash Mob will take place at Union Square but we will meet at AT&T Park prior to walking to the “mob site.” For your participation, the first 200 “Flash Mobbers” to report to the ballpark (by 11:00AM) will receive a commemorative “It’s Magic Inside” t-shirt and have that 15 minutes of fame you’ve always dreamed of! It’s simple! If you can follow directions, you can be part of this amazing experience!

I used to own a rabbit. It’d occasionally make growly noises and attack my feet, particularly before we had it neutered. That learned him.

I knew a girl who owned a pussy of a cat.

Said cat was keelhauled by a rabbit…and gave birth to what was dubbed a “cabbit”.

It had shortish, floppy ears, no tail, and didn’t run like either species exactly.

But the most unsettling characteristic was the sound it made.
Sort of a groan.

  For some odd reason today’s audio broadcast is preserved on MLB’s media center. My wonderful signal was lost, and when it somehow reestablished itself and rebooted MLB the broadcast began all over again.

  This is indeed strange – normally the feeds disappear once the game concludes. Interesting that they’re archiving ST. Fluke or policy?
