Naw, they just said it might start this month, or next month, or if something else happens the month after. I wasn't exactly getting a lot of feedback, so I just figured I would write them, and if they started later than what they said, I would have some columns in the can, and in the worse case I would have something to add to my portfolio...
Natter 40: The Nice One
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
See, I have a scarf, but it's not quite long enough. But why would I possibly need two scarves? In Texas?
I think it's something about Target, actually. That place makes me want to spend money on all sorts of things I don't need. I walk in there, and I have visions of organizing my entire life.
More fun with eBay -- Original 1923 Hollywood sign for sale!
"Why are you selling the sign?" I am a producer/entrepreneur, and I am simply too busy with my other projects to work on the sign. It has been an amazing experience.
Translation: I thought this would be a huge moneymaker, but now I realize that having many giant pieces of metal is simply a pain in the ass.
Isn't there a casino in Vegas that would be interested in this thing?
Olympic weightlifter Naim Suleymanoglu (4 feet 11 inches)
This guy's nickname is "Pocket Hercules." No, I did not make that up.
The tallest “short dude”? Pro football player Doug Flutie, at 5 feet 10 inches, who is ranked at No. 24.
This, however, I am pretty sure is made up. Flutie is actually shorter than that. Proportionally, 5'10" is kinda short for a football player, but he was considered short in 1984, in college, surrounded by players who went on to become accountants.
Flutie would not get hired by any NFL team simply because of his height.
Then he went to Canada, and became one of the greatest CFL players ever.
Congratulations, CaBil!!!!
RIO! How are you doing?
