A camel is a horse designed by a committee

Hoooly shit folks, you need to check out http://www.rickygervais.com and listen to the podcasts. Ricky Gervais is the dude who began the show "The Office" (british version, which spawned the US version) and is one of the writers for Da Ali G Show. The podcast is basically him and his friend interacting with this guy Karl, who is a strange bean. Give it a shot, its free and fooking hilarious. Man, I wish my mind worked that way.

At the risk of turning my blogs into nothing but parroting back of shit i've heard, this was funny too....a short audio essay on how the indie coffee shop thing doesnt really work.

Olympics are on, and theyre currently showing Ice Dancing. Not skating, not racing, nothing involving a puck or a ball. People rag on curling, but seriously, how many people do you have to beat to compete in olympic ice dancing? There are probably what, like 25 people in the world who ice dance to begin with? Which is awkward, because there's that one odd person when they pair up to dance, and thats got to be hard on the ol' ego. But I have trouble believing that this is enough of an institution that there are real established parameters for judging and people qualified to judge and give commentary. I know skeleton doesnt really have that many participants yet either, but at least you put your neck on the line cruising down an ice chute at 70mph in a unitard. Also, you have to suffer the indignity of the unitard.
