Scraping Topics from the Bottom of the Barrel
I think I may in some sort of "Blogger's Block" since I'm having a tough time coming up with topics this evening. So, I'll just have to ad-lib this post, and see how much I can come up with.
- Music videos are a lost art, since MTV and VH1 have forgotten how to actually play music videos any more. If you watch between the hours of 2am-5am, you have a chance at seeing a music video on one of these channels, but otherwise, you're just in for re-runs of Made, Punk'd, Real World, Best of the 90's and Best Week Ever. Regardless, I did come across the music video for the White Stripes' "Denial Twist" and it's a pretty clever video. Check it out here. (You may need Quicktime in order for this to run. Odds are that if you have iTunes installed on your comp, you'll also have Quicktime. If not, then I don't know what to tell you.)
- I spoke with Jared this evening and he confirmed that it was in fact 27 degrees in Austin, TX, this evening. What's more amazing is the fact that it was 80 this past Saturday. I don't know that I've ever heard of a 53 degree drop in temperature in any place that wasn't called the Sahara Desert. He said there was a chance of ice this afternoon, and so the University of Texas and all of the schools closed early, because they have no idea how to handle any type of inclement weather. The reason I mention this is because I have to bust Jared's balls a little bit. He finds humor in letting us know how warm it is throughout the whole winter when all of us up here in the Northeast are freezing our asses off. So when the temperature in Texas is the same as it is up here, I don't feel so bad. That's alright...by Saturday, they'll be back up in the mid-60's.
- Just in case you wanted to see Michael Irvin's mugshot after he was arrested a couple weeks ago and charged with "misdemeanor possession of drug paraphenalia". While we're on the topic of mugshots, I thought it'd be a good time to also post a link to my favorite of all time.
- Here's something to look forward to in March: CBS will offer the NCAA Tournament games free as streaming webcasts, for this year only. In the future, they'll be charging a subscription fee, but in March, we'll be able to see the tourney games through the regional semifinals free online (with the exception of blackouts due to regional television schedules). Regardless, that'd be pretty sweet - get the game going on the TV and the computer at the same time. Let's hear it for technology.
That's all I could come up with. Hopefully back tomorrow night with something more worthwhile.
