FeS2

Congratulations to the Marquette Golden Eagles on their stellar 2005-06 season. Marquette finished the regular season with a 20-10 mark to earn the #7 seed in their division in this year's NCAA Tournament.

But that's all over now. I'll be thinking of them as I watch Milwaukee's real home team, the UWM Panthers, face off against Florida in the second round. Actually, I probably won't be thinking of them at all.

Hey, maybe one of these days Marquette will drop the holier-than-thou attitude and agree to play the Panthers! No? Didn't think so.

Go Panthers!

Audition, eat crow, go home.

As all of my closest friends can tell you, I'm a HUGE fan of America's favorite popularity contest, American Idol. In fact, Chuck and I were just discussing how much I enjoy the show this afternoon at work. Probably almost as much as HBO's The Wire.

Anyways, I came across this website this afternoon, and I thought I'd pass it along to anyone who cares. Should you feel so inclined, make your contribution to the cause.

Make every vote count!

Bearded death

Happy 66th birthday, Chuck Norris.

Word of advice for those who like being alive - don't ever look this man squarely in the eyes. It'll be the last thing you ever see.

Lethal when used

Now that's more like it!

Double false!

Quick follow-up - not only was Krauthammer wrong about Brokeback Mountain's popularity, he also air-balled on his Best Picture prediction. Crash came out of nowhere to steal the biggest prize of the night.

As a side note, I also got a kick out of Three 6 Mafia's acceptance speech. In it, they thanked Jesus for helping them win the Oscar for Best Achievement in Music Written for Motion Pictures. The song? "It's Hard Out Here For A Pimp".

Deja vu all over again

It's 3:00, Saturday afternoon, and Tiger Woods is tied with Mickelson, Toms, Villegas, and Beem to start the back nine at the Ford Championship.

Golf rocks.

This sounds so familiar...
