In dipshittery, as in life, there are second chances. Opportunities for redemption.
On July 10, in London, the venerable Sotheby's auction house offers a original artwork that has a special place in my heart, and if you're a red-blooded human of Western descent, yours, as well.
In 1926, E.H. Shepard sketched the original map of the Hundred Acre Wood, home to A.A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh and his friends. Pooh was my main homie for a good part of my young childhood, both in stuffed form and on the page. One of my favorite memories of being a parent is reading Milne's stories to my girls. I love Pooh more than any other fictional character, with the possible exception of Teejay.
So I think it'd be great if we can chip in the $200,000 Sotheby's estimates will take to win the auction. We can display the sketch at G:TBHQ. Which, as I understand it, is my living room. You're all, obviously, welcome to visit it any time you'd like.

I guess we need to change robs nickname from squirrel to poohbear.
everybody's napping so they can stay up to watch hoops?
Cleveland has played about as well as they can hope for and the game is tied. That’s gotta be frustrating. Would be nice if someone told KD that the Finals have started.
It’s all over, Mark. JAVALE MCGEE.
That was meant as a joke. Did not expect 4 pts and a +7 +/- in 3 mins.
google play music does not have "melt." and slingtv is being glitchy with this game.
bron's got a 40/8/6 going, but his team's gonna lose, so he's not as good as jordan
recalibrating
The Bay Area fans appear long on histrionics (and money) and short on a fundamental understanding of NBA rules. It’s like they watch Draymond’s reaction and respond accordingly. So annoying.
LBJ is a beast. And JR is so goddamn bad.
Holy shit. JR Smith is the dumbest dumbass in the history of NBA dumbasses. Announcers need to hammer home the extent of his dumbassery post-commercial. Dude was 6.9 ft away from the rim w/ 3 secs left.
It’s an all-time boner play and will make some folks forget Hill bricked a game-winning FT.
So boners are bad now?
didn't you google boner recently?
No way Cavs come back in OT. 50% of LBJ’s support cast bricked the final 3 secs of regulation and Love has no grit. That leaves Jeff Green.
Love needs to catch more shit for not playing like an All-Star.
Cavs wasted an all time performance by LBJ. JR is epically stupid. Steph is somehow underrated. I’m down with these teams hating each other.
ghughe dhay
Rhob is rhight
we love calling my friend at work eeyore.
shame the cavs didn't steal this one. also a shame i'm going to fall asleep during every game . . .
i wish i'd thought of a trump = randolph and mortimer duke joke this morning. it just occurred to me. i'm getting old.
i had a former colleague who i called eeyore. to myself. that was one gloomy gus.
Have begun watching the Steve Martin, Martin Short special on Netflix. How I missed them in Jacksonville, well, it is a sin goddammit.
Look forward to Tybee Island reviews as that is a frequent consideration for a trial visit.
And lastly, visiting a joint this week being built by old #23....south fla...golf related. His Airness is considering engaging a gtb’r. Stay tuned.
Anyone see the "trump is like a horse in a hospital" shtick?
indeed, z. i now walk around saying ‘there’s a horse. in the hospital.’ to my family. they pat me on my head and walk away.
Just finished The Americans. Sad it is over.
Danimal, wasn't the finale SO GOOD?!?!?!
