IT'S A MADHOUSE

Or so I'll claim!

So when I'm bored I go to minorleaguebaseball.com and look at box scores, particularly at Pawtucket's and at Louisville's (e.g. Bellhorn's team). And when I recognize former MLB players I'll be like "snap!" and click on their names and voilà! I remember!!! Okay, so how many sentences is that? It's either one or two. Anyway, I find some neat things sometimes. Today's discovery is that Raul Casanova was an American League all-star... even before he was born! Congratulations, Raul Casanova!

But yeah, I read another email from the Tufts disc team elist or newsgroup or whatever and these people are ridiculously masculine; it scares me. IT'S A MADHOUSE...

The song I'm referencing is by Anthrax. Someone stepped it, meaning it's on my DDR computer setup, and I heard it not once but twice today while I was at Best Buy figuring out how to spend my exorbitant amount of gift card moo-lah. Yes, that's Guitar Hero's fault. I don't really like that game for soundtrack reasons. I can't actually say I've ever played it--have I? I can't remember. But the gameplay is simple enough, so I definitely know how it would be like. There are other games like this by the same company that made DDR, and I'm not interested in any of them (there are like 8)... I'll stick with what I've got, thanks.

Can you still buy airline tickets with smoking allowed on the flight? My mom's ticket for a business conference in July says "Seating Preference: Non smoking window seat," which is missing a hyphen, but in any case seems repetitive. I have to remember to go over to the Hamilton-Wenham public library today to pick up Haruki Murakami's latest novel, After Dark. It's received criticism from people who are overly anal about what they read, and stuff. The good thing about Murakami's stories is that they're always very, very readable and attention-grabbing. And they're always on something random, which is great. You can pretty much predict what the story's going to be about for too many writers, or at least too many writers of books I haven't read yet. Wait, is that statement logical? To borrow an Ashishism, no..........

I will actually probably be working later this summer, and the job will involve math. I don't know much about it yet but there is some intrigue in the matter for me. Il y a un je ne sais quoi qui m'intrigue...

Oops, I should be writing in my summer journal. Tskity tskity tsk...
