Not only LeBron, Calli. There was a lot of schadenfreude aimed at ESPN, too.Which was funny for a while...who doesn't love mocking the bad boss? But he kind of kept it going to the point that even I was like "Well, glad you're over it." He could've ended up *doing* that interview, after all.(Well, actually, he wouldn't, he would stamp those huge feet and quit, probably.) I want David Simon as a Countdown guest. Surface differences aside, I think they would feel like brothers from another mother.The Eastern seaboard would experience an outrage shortage, though.

So....paint stripping is revolting looking and a lot of work. And I've almost gone through a quart of the stuff and that's just the endpost. I will be sanding, not stripping, the spindles. Eating a banana and then I'm going swimming. And then out for more dropcloth, stripper and sandpaper.

sarameg, have you tried a heat gun? If it's peeling right off the varnish, low heat will probably do it. I use a respirator or at least a heavy duty mask, but it there's any lead paint, it's still safer than sanding.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Packing is done. I finally ate something at 2. Feel much better now.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I am cleaning some of the things, and as a consequence, sneezing my head off. Oww.

I've finally figured out who the Dutch coach reminds me of--Terence Stamp.

Also, go Oranje!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

still scarred from Brett Favre's endless bullshit

Holy hell YES. Ptui. Fine, Brett, go do you what you need to do, but don't do the "retire, un-retire" dance FOUR TIMES, you JACKASS.

Or, if you do, expect that people aren't going to care eventually.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I want Oranje to win, but I keep getting distracted by how much Xavi looks like RDJ if he hadn't been a total cokehead at that age.
