Lazy on a Monday afternoon in my neck of the woods, procrastinating because I've got work to do, both the honey-do and the boss-says-do kinds. And since I don't acknowledge the current President*, some others of note.

Lots of impressive mustaches among the ski jumpers.
And whither Eric B Is President?
Impeach the President?
Canada's curling team needs to step up their show game. Rocking orthopedic bobos.
I saw Black Panther today. Good to be ahead of the curve and have some social equity, for at least a few days. It is pretty good. The camera work and special effects made me a bit nauseous, because old. Kids dug it.
Nice cameo by dude who played Chris Darden.
I'm waiting for Black Marlin, the chubby bald hero whose super power is drinking beer and shouting mean things at random passers-by. He has an adamantium codpiece and a metal credit card.
they keep talking about 'the hammer' on the curling broadcast. i have stories.
Zed, I’m taking applications for Black Marlin sidekicks. I think you fit well with the whole gestalt.
Looks like W&M might be announcing their new president today. Methinks it might be a ladyperson.
My friend Ben R. Williams wrote a serialized novel called Black Marlin. http://www.benrwilliams.com/black-marlin.html
Ben is a brilliantly funny guy who sometimes writes editorials for the Martinsville Bulletin, which cause Trump supporters to phone his office and call him all kinds of awful things, and makes him even more proud and determined.
I’m feeling pretty good about my “Trae Young is Mark Macon 2.0” call.
Mr. Williams had me at his first line. Mr. Spector might not think it is as funny as I did.
It does avoid having to say that pesky "ELL" when spelling it out loud though.
Macon averaged 6.7 pts and 1.7 assists and lasted 251 total games in the NBA.
Care to wager that Young will average double digit points and 5 assists in the NBA?
So is the Burg going to be the new hotbed for Ultimate Frisbee? Tournaments in the sunken gardens every weekend.
I saw that, too, Squeaky. Billy K is psyched.
I like this new President. How old do you think she is?
Well, Whitney, she graduated undergrad from Carleton College (cool name) in 1984, so that would make her 56 or so.
Actually, Whitney, I have determined from a subsequent search that she is 55.
Love,
The Internet
Gee, thanks, Internet!
Ultimate frisbee...Hippie Olympics. Somebody call Blotter.
We’re not gonna protest...
Per Teej’s earlier internet fight, I doubt the new president is going to put Tony on the hot seat.
The first line of Black Marlin should have been “Call Me Fishmael.”
pour some out for rick pitino's integrity.
oh, it was already dead? my bad.
Golf clap
Louisville’s problem was clearly that its appeal was a page too short.
“Louisville sent a 68-page appeal to the NCAA on Aug. 11...”
Is "White Flounder" a cool sidekick name?
Humpback Harry
Dolphin Dude
Zemo
Is Shaver’s job really in jeopardy? I hope that’s just an idiot on twitter stirring things up. I’m going to ask Huge about it at the lunch tomorrow.
Well, then I'd better do some research before lunchtime...

Pitch it to Netflix now!
Dave can write the theme song.
Black vinyl, soul, rock and roll coming like a rhino.
Whither Himijako, the giant clam? Oysters clams and cockles? Or Timmy Blowfish? Michael Jack the Amberjack? The elusive Bonefish?
shlara, if she says that tony is on the hot seat, i'll be forced to question her judgement. unless she tells you she's got brad stevens lined up to take the job, in which case it's been a great run for tony and maybe it's time to move on.
if you get to them late, this particular comment strand makes very little sense.
"call me fishmael" is a line in a fictitious story inside lorrie moore's meta-story "how to become a writer"

If she has Brad Stevens lined up, I may have to move back to the Burg
Dave, technically her version says "Call me Fishmeal." Which is better.
Lorrie’s wigs don’t fall off!!
I have no idea what you nerds are talking about.
Anyone going to the Amelia Island Concours D'Elegance March 9-11?
my nana takes her wig off when she's drunk.
and whit, i didn't know you were familiar with the works of lorrie moore . . .
I believe that Marls was referring to Morrie lore:

btw, we really let shlara off the hook for her 'i'm lunching with w&m's ad' humblebrag
Uh, it’s a big W&M lunch in DC. All of you local knuckleheads were invited. Check your email
