Ceai Complet: May 7, 2008

There is no greater impotence in all the world like knowing you are right and that the wave of the world is wrong, yet the wave crashes upon you.
- Norman Mailer

There is no greater impotence in all the world than when the room's already paid for.

I assure you, I did not post this. But give Whit five minutes, and he will assure you it wasn't him either.

Our readership of course remembers Mr. Mailer for his appearance in an episode of Gilmore Girls entitled "Norman Mailer, I'm Pregnant!"

I seem to be the first suspect on everyone's list when it comes to blogging treachery.

Maybe that wouldn't happen so much if if weren't always me who did it.

Some of you guys really need to pick up the slack and start screwing around.

Perhaps Bruno and Cane Lover need to make a comeback.

that's the best picture of teejay we've got? we need to commission a new portrait.

I think that is cropped from the Gheorghe photo...somewhere on this site is also the classic hungover photo of me, and there might even be a photo with me and Sugar Ray (the boxer...not the band).

Geoff said...

Oh yeah...from that one time when you were hungover.

Did Sugar Ray Leonard ever have any qualms about swiping his nickname from another esteemed (moreso than he) boxer? He couldn't have come up with anything better?

Like maybe Manta Ray Leonard?
Devil Ray Leonard?
Charcoalg Ray Leonard?
Cabba Ray Leonard?

It was a horrible time. Never again.

ASHTEAD, England, May 6 (UPI) -- A suburban London man said he will not take down a pirate flag he erected for his daughter's birthday party, despite threats of legal action.

David Waterman, 41, a firefighter from the London suburb of Ashtead, said he purchased a $10 Jolly Roger and put it up outside his house for his daughter's pirate-themed eighth birthday party, The Daily Mail reported Tuesday.

The Reds just hit four homers in the 2nd inning against Jon Lieber. Yikes.

Whitney said...

What kind of douchewhistle threatens legal action for a neighbor hoisting a pirate flag in his front yard? Even for the English, that's a bit much.
