"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I too watched some of the Puppy Bowl! It was puppy-riffic. The intern who dreamed up that programming gets a gold star.

I also watched a little bit of the Superbowl, to know whether I could get away with being a space cadet at work today. Answer: yes. The victory parade is tomorrow, although signs indicate that the Patriots winning Superbowls is becoming a bit ho-hum. The funnest part of the news coverage is reruns of the first win (2002), when everybody was shocked and amazed and said goofy, amazed things on TV.

(In the absence of pro hockey, New England now has 2 of the 3 major professional sports championships. (No, I have no idea who wins at soccer.) The tally will remain at 2 of 3, since the Celtics are determinedly mediocre.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

the Celtics are determinedly mediocre

Mediocre is a harsh term -- they are leading their division, after all.

Sure, they're leading with a .500, but still. Give them a wee bit of credit.

What is even happening?

Oddest thing I saw on my way to work today: half a rabbit, on the lawn of a univeristy building.

Um?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Um?

We got a bunch of rain last night, which melted most of the remaining snow, so odds are it was under the snow before then.

Well, that really doesn't address how half the bunny got there. I saw no sign of the other half.

ita, I do not know how to break this to you.

me·di·o·cre adj. Moderate to inferior in quality; ordinary. See Synonyms at average.

Having local opponents who suck does not raise one above mediocrity. The Celtics are petty Salieris of the north.

Or he could just grab your ankles and yank them towards him, which would dump your ass on the ground right quick.

I know from doing foot sweeps that it's pretty difficult to get someone's feet out from under her. I don't think you'd have the right leverage under a car. You almost have to be able to have some upward motion.

If I get to pick my sort of mediocre, Nutty, I pick the sort that gets me good seeding in the post-season. That's what I'm saying.

.500 in another division doesn't do that, so they're getting more for their buck than the other similar win/loss ratios.

See?

It is Monday and therefore I Gronk at it, even though I didn't really do anything yesterday but watch Homicide DVDs.

Always Anti-fascist!

Well, you know, I approve. (although if they were the latest, that's kind of sad. Falsone, bleh.)
