bit of this and that
Just a few quick hits on a Friday...
The MS150 web page got it's first contribution...whoooo hoooooo! Ten dollars down, nine hundred and ninety to go.
Did the gym thing again last night, in preparation for that MS150 bike ride. Again I had the pleasure (?) of enduring American Idol. Maybe I need to find out when that show is on and avoid that place for that hour. That show really grates on my nerves....so much manufactured drama. After the first group of six contestants were brought up with one to be eliminated, you figure out the last one they talk to is the loser so they can be all suspenseful as long as possible. Joe...you sang Rubber Duckie. Simon thought you sucked, Paula wants the booty call she'll deny later. Randy thought you were OK. America says.....drum roll and pause for more suspense....you get to come back next week. Huge Sigh. So, how does the first person in the next group, and the next group act like they don't know they're in as soon as their name's called? Until they get down to the last two people, if they talk to you, you're in.
The youngster talked to his teachers and the assistant principal yesterday about joining the softball team. Together they came up with a plan to get his grades up and have him play. Last night he seemed genuinely motivated. I hope we can keep that going this time. I've seen him look genuinely motivated for a day many times. Sustaining that motivation more than 24 hours...there's the challenge.
In Bizarro World, I guess they figured out where to plant Anna Nicole. Now the only question is whether or not anything comes of the judge's audition to be a TV celebrity. She goes to the Bahamas. He goes to...Hollywood? There's just too much weirdness going on there.
Michelle Wie says she doesn't care what the critics say about her playing in PGA Tour tournaments and not making the cut...ever. Absolutely not. Doesn't bother her a bit. You can tell, because of the way it occasionally looks like she could make a cut, and then unexplicably chokes it away...every time. It's not in her head at all. I don't doubt she has the talent to play at that level, but it needs to be developed.
Have a great weekend....
