Football season already?

Monday, August 14, 2006

The other night a guy got on my 11 bus at 44th St. & Nicollet, looked at my ears (stretched to a 0 gauge), and asked me if I was getting back to my african roots. Normally people just ask me if it hurt (it feels just like any piercing). I'm just going to start telling people they're speed holes. Anyway, he told me that he drank so much that he's sober. I asked him if he was at Westrum's Tavern (oh give me a break, he could have had too much wine at Corner Table, you never know). He told me he was and asked if i'd ever been there. Yeah, they have decent food (although the beer always taste like soap). He's a painter and said he's used to keeping rooms extremely clean, but he went in the ktichen and won't eat there anymore. Interesting.

I can't believe football season's already here. The Twins are still entrenched in the race, and now all people are going to talk about for six months is the Tampa Bay Devil Rays of the NFL, the Vikings. So what should you do? Join my fantasy football league by clicking here (league name and password are both omgzilla). It's free to join and the only prize is the satisfaction of knowing that you beat some guy from the internet who has played for 4 years without ever winning league.

I am outraged at the MOA! HEAR MY OUTCRY! Ryan, EVERYONE loves the arts and museums. plus i think it's stupid that they need to build newer ones. but much less stupid than new outdoor stadiums in one of the coldest snowiest states. What about off the grid? the new stadium? hah! i suppose i should applaud leonardo dicaprio for his off the gridness too right?! no thanks. sorry to say it, but what the hell is duped? still,i like you ryan.

Hey-
I just found your blog, and I'm really digging it. Buses are my main mode of transportation, so I've got a lot of appreciation for bus drivers and their stories. I'm just commenting because of the password "omgzilla"-- I saw that tagged a few places around uptown, and thought it was awesome. I figured it was another one of 27's things, because he seems like he's tagging everywhere, but most of what I see his is spray-paint work (..fishes and shit) which has his signature on it, as opposed to stencilling. Anyways- I was just wondering if that was where you got it from.
Drive on.

p.s. I play fantasy football with my dad and all of his old friends, and I usually kick their asses. We've got money riding on it, too, so it's pretty satisfying.

Yeah, that's not me, I just saw it on a wall and stole it. I think it's hilarious.

I'll put another open invitation for baseball and football next year.
