Mid-week Commentary

- I was running some errands in the Target the other day and ran into Yolanda. I can't stay away from this lady. I begin to walk down one aisle and there she is. She gave me that "I think I know this guy" look, but I had my glasses on and hadn't shaved in 3 days. As soon as I made eye contact, I thought to myself "oh crap" and then kept on walking like I was deeply focused on finding some product on the shelf. I think I got away without feeling her wrath. Meanwhile, I am due for a haircut in the near future, so I'm sure her and I will be meeting again shortly.

- Atlantic City casinos shut down today for an indefinite period of time. David Longo is sitting somwhere in New Jersey cursing out Governor Jon Corzine because he's unable to make his weekly trip to Harrah's this weekend.

- The Sports Guy loves the World Cup and I agree with many of the reasons he gives. I mean, let's be serious, I've had many people say to me over the last 3 weeks, "I didn't know you followed soccer this much". The truth is that I don't follow it at all. But the World Cup is extremely exciting, involves international competition which is always a good time, and gives you something to follow every day for 1 month. After this weekend, I'll won't care about soccer until 2010.

- Did anyone watch RockStar: Supernova this evening? It's like American Idol gone crazy. The contestants are all a bunch of karaoke singers who love their 90's tunes and, as you would guess, want to be rockstars. The best is watching Dave Navarro, Tommy Lee, and Jason Newsted as they take in the performances. You would never believe that the guitarist from Jane's Addiction/Red Hot Chili Peppers, the drummer from Motley Crue, and the former bassist from Metallica would be on a show like this, rocking out to a 22 year old female from Georgia's rendition of Melissa Etheridge's "I'm the Only One". Jury's still out on this show. Ah, let's be serious, I'll probably watch it next week too.
