Low tide
Once you look at past love as a souvenir,
everything becomes OK.
Is it me, or does this shell have vague vaginal qualities?
Yankee's rot. So?
I know it’s trendy to hate the Yankees. Take it from a Red Sox fan. But YES (The Yankee Channel on my cable network) just replayed the Jim Abbott no hitter from September 4, 1993. It was a thrill to watch. Not because he was dominating, not because the Indians couldn’t figure him out, not because it was a different era in Yankee history. It was because the man only had one hand.
If a one-handed man can pitch a no hitter, what can you do?
The soundtrack to The Mission
If you saw the movie, then you have a tear in your heart. The soundtrack is the suture. It is the glassy bejewleled wonderment of human emotion. It is the breathless dictation of adoration and the various urgencies that arrive as a result. It is the unwrapping of a gilded present only to find a box of pure love.
OY!
Robbie Keane equalled Niall Quinn's Irish record of 21 international goals as the Ireland opened their World Cup qualifying campaign with a 3-0 win over Cyprus on Saturday. Keane rounded off Ireland's scoring with a 55th-minute penalty after first half goals from Clinton Morrison and Andy Reid in the Group Four game at Lansdowne Road. Morrison, who had last scored for Ireland 13 months ago, put the home side in front just past the half hour when he sent a glancing header home. (AP WIRE)
Bounce
I know this borders on the obsessive, but this is my third run at this song in 10 months. There is not an element of it that qualifies as unlikeable. It grooves, it rocks, it dislocates your hips. Hey Ya. Outkast.
