RANDOM THOUGHTS:
And...we're back! After a four day hiatus due to the Thanksgiving holidays, I'm back and ready with seven brand new random thoughts. The following were on my mind between Monday, November 21st and Monday, November 28th:
- According to a recent poll, more Americans prefer hepatitis, porn, polygamy, the BP oil spill, a communist nation and even herpes that the nation's current Congress. Not only that, but Congress is barely getting more support than Fidel Castro (9% to 5%), and this poll was conducted before the failure of the "supercommittee"! I have nothing witty to add about this one other than the fact that if the federal government is now competing with "Jack and Jill" in popularity, then there really is some time for change.
- It's so nice to be able to type "Black" on YouTube these days and see "...Keys" suggested ahead of "...Eyed Peas"
- Reason #3421 to love NFL RedZone: Scott Hanson's play-by-play while on the air, arguably better than 75% of the announcing teams on the air every Sunday.
- Ndamukong Suh's explanation for how he didn't mean to step on Evan Dietrich-Smith was like seeing a nine year old trying to defend himself when accused of breaking a flower vase.
- Late November is like Friday the 13th to Stevie Johnson, apparently. Last year, you might remember his critical overtime drop against Pittsburgh and his God-tweets hours after. Yesterday, he had that rather interesting touchdown celebration against the Jets that cost his team a fifteen yard unsportsmanlike penalty to give the Jets good field position to score (which they did), and then those two costly drops at the final two minutes of the game. If I were Chan Gailey and still the coach of this next year, I might have to reconsider playing him next time the post-Thanksgiving games roll around.
- Nice try, "The Walking Dead"! Unfortunately, your entertaining final scene to last night's episode still doesn't excuse the usual batch of "bad characters, bad writing" that you put up these last five weeks! Not this time
/is going to watch this show to the end out of spite
- I'm not sure who in my family hates what more: my dad's hatred of Caleb Hanie or my sister's irrational hatred of "The Muppets"?
More random thoughts to come on Thursday. Enjoy the post-Thanksgiving return to normalcy!
