10. This Thing (http://i36.tinypic.com/waqa6u.gif%20) - Vegan Nick sent me that link yesterday morning (I think it was his attempt to extend an olive branch after informing me that he was not going to meet me at Soy Cafe for lunch), stating that he had been transfixed on it for quite some time. I too found it fascinating, and I bet it’d be a really easy way to waste an hour of my life if I worked a boring desk job like many of you do.
9. Long Weekend - Most of you, I imagine, will not be working on Monday. It’s Labor Day. Kids will be going back to school soon, and Monday really is — for a large portion of America — the last time to hang out in the sun, grill, go to the beach, or do anything fun. It’s kind of like the last really romantic kiss shared with a lover who will imminently leave you. I have to work Monday, but in California its at least comfortable year-round, so I don’t have to worry about winter like many of you. I guess that’s a fair trade-off.
8. Mets In, Yanks Out - At this very moment, the New York Mets are sitting in first place atop the National League East. The New York Yankees, at this very moment, are poised to miss the playoffs for the first time in God-knows how many years. I can’t say I’m disappointed. Nor should you. It’s about time Yankees fans were forced to feel some humility, and suffer through a post-season without a team to support. Don’t worry Yankee fans (I’m speaking to you specifically, Ian and Mike M), you’re always welcome to hop aboard and root for the Amazin’ Mets. We’re not too picky about the kinds of people we allow into our proverbial clubhouse.
