ill put it in basketball terms that perhaps he can understand. time to untuck that polo shirt from your sweatpants (worst gym look ever, btw) and man up. nike cant strong arm some videographer when you get repeatedly posterized by the likes of chuck grassley. you cant just show up in a contract year and expect to get paid max salary when your bailout percentage is an abomination. enough of this kumbaya shit. think kobe won a championship by letting sasha vujacic launch threepointers from the baseline with every touch. no, he got in his face and bitchslapped him if he even considered it. so time to roll back the clock to an era when players on opposing teams didnt play kissyface before everygame. we need more bill russell and less bill cosby. sure, maybe the suits in the corporate suites wont renew their support. but remember, barry, that it used to be about playing for the real fans, and for the love of the game. *increase volume on sentimental score w/slow mo of crowd rising to their feet in waves of ecstatic applause intercut with images of oprah/dems crying on election eve in grant park*

Saw that movie about blogging. Waiting for the "sustenance" movie.
"Perlman says OnLive [net-based game platform]’s combination of compression algorithms, distributed data centers and deals with Internet carriers to minimize transmission delays typically pushes the latency figure as low as 25 to 35 milliseconds, and no more than 80 in the worst case."
"deals with internet carriers"--isn't that what every media provider wants and doesn't it violate net neutrality? Curious to hear any thoughts on this.

According to plant pathologists, this killer round of blight began with a widespread infiltration of the disease in tomato starter plants. Large retailers like Home Depot, Kmart, Lowe’s and Wal-Mart bought starter plants from industrial breeding operations in the South and distributed them throughout the Northeast. (Fungal spores, which can travel up to 40 miles, may also have been dispersed in transit.) Once those infected starter plants arrived at the stores, they were purchased and planted, transferring their pathogens like tiny Trojan horses into backyard and community gardens. Perhaps this is why the Northeast was hit so viciously: instead of being spread through large farms, the blight sneaked through lots of little gardens, enabling it to escape the attention of the people who track plant diseases.
The idea that “each man kills the thing he loves” has been interpreted by many—from Oscar Wilde to Paulo Coelho—but it’s always had a particular resonance in the environmental movement, where every hiking trail and ecofriendly resort inevitably destroys or alters nature in the name of love. For 69-year-old activist Ric O’Barry, the paradox is an apt expression for his cause: the preservation of dolphins.
“Everybody loves them, right?” he asks. “But be careful with the word love.”
To O’Barry, even activities as seemingly benign as paying to see dolphins perform at SeaWorld or swimming with them in captivity constitutes abuse. “We love dolphins like they’re our family—I hear that a lot. Really? You lock your family up in a room and force them to do tricks before they eat their dinner?” O’Barry says. “The dolphin is a sonic creature; its primary sense is sound. You put one in a bare concrete box with music blaring and people shouting, of course it’s stressful! If people could see them in the wild, they’d never buy a ticket to a dolphin show.”
Amazing tacos at La Sirenita taqueria on Alberta St. While I don't think the tortillas are home made, these tacos are among the best I've had.
$1.35 each. The pastor and carnitas are so good I can't bring myself to try anything else yet. Lengua next.
The tortillas at La Terrasca in Centrailia are home made but 90 miles each way is a long way to drive.
