oh, mets

those poor mets - five teams in the n.l. east and they couldn't squeeze them in?

why i feel old, part 40

new age bracket. sigh.

so true

sad, but true.

this little gnome...

has not posted in nearly 3 weeks - inexcusable!

tho, i will make some excuses for travel and changes at work. doing a bit of globe trotting the next couple of weeks (see below), so apologies in advance for keeping the bizarroness a bit quiet.

sigh

dear target,

cool your boots! let's get through halloween first, mm'kay?

thanks.

sad!

oh, axl

can you believe this is axl rose? to quote whatevs, age is not kind.

houston, we have a problem. no, really.

um, that cannot be good.

boo

quick question

i loved kate's paperie. but hard times and an email world does not a sustainable business make. here on the upper east side, "jam paper" has opened up in its place. i particularly like their #1 & #2 faqs.

r.i.p.

i was an unabashed fan of the hair bands back in the day.

dug this out of my box of concert memorabilia - a signed "cherry pie" poster from late 1990. (or, as i specifically catalogued, 11/18/90). i believed they opened for poison at the nassau coliseum.

i have no recollection of actually asking them for nor seeing them autograph, so i'm guess maybe my father did on my behalf? (thanks, dad.)

"heaven" is still a kickin' power ballad:

goodbye, jani lane.

q&a

i'm fairly certain that the answer to this question is "no."

goodbye, cha cha

grease is tied with willy wonka & the chocolate factory as my all-time favorite movie. farewell to annette charles, aka cha cha digregorio, who sadly passed away. she was born to hand jive, baby.

can we all not agree...?

that kings of leon are the new oasis?

classy

so true

(from phdcomics)

sad!

i'm not partial to cute things...but i've always had a soft spot for knut, the german polar bear. sadly, he passed away this week at the berlin zoo. goodbye, knut!

oh well

my bracket is officially dunzo. thanks, syracuse.

oh, well - there's always lacrosse...

meanwhile...

south of the border my mother mocks me with picturemail of sunshine & palm trees. sigh.

oh, 2011

i don't know about your feelings, but 2011 kinda blows. not only is it the year of mugatu, but the above just about sums up my 9 to 5.

maybe it's just january? or winter? my horoscope was so promising. sigh. maybe i'm no longer a pisces afterall...?
