I have a copy of Talking Heads' Speaking in Tongues pressed on clear vinyl. Somewhere around here...

UNC women beat Louisville tonight, too. Kinda weird.

alas.... anybody know when was the last time that all 4 #1 seeds made it to the final four? looks like a possibility this time.

Getting better?

used to love him. now we him. but the dude can coach.

Xavier / UCLA was not the game I was hoping it would be. Although that run by UCLA in the 2nd half was pretty impressive. Pitino's teams always seem to have a run in the 2nd half when they need it - just not sure UNC will allow that to happen tonight. They're still hanging around tho.

I gotta admit, Pitino has those kids playing well right now. Should be a great game. And I still like Xavier over UCLA.

I feel the same way about Pitino. Last night was the first time IN MY LIFE that I ever rooted for Tenn. And now I have to cheer for UNC.... bleah. At least it's not Duke. That would be the mother of all 'llemas. A dreadful proposition.

Some great games last night. I'm not as excited about tonight's, although hopefully I can stay awake and watch the Memphis / Mich St game.

Great game, great comeback. Western Ky looks a little starstruck early on, but just down 3 after 5 mins. Hope they can settle in and play well enough to make a run at UCLA. UL looks tough so far.

BUMP! The madness continues! WVA and Xavier at 7:10, and then WKU/UCLA and UL/UT for the second game. I think that our local CBS station will somehow magically show both of those second games - one on the regular channel and one on the "other" channel that they somehow tuck into the digital deadspace between things on cable. It sounded complicated when someone tried to explain it, but I will be happy to just enjoy the magic of technology and partake of them both. Doubt we'll have any upsets tonight. The UL/UT game can't be an upset, imo. Too close to call. I read where the mayo

Who did that chika-boom chika-boom, dontcha just love it song? That's gotta be a oneder.

I really hope you had to look that up...

The poster child for one hit wonders has to be The Knack's My Sharona. I mean, those guys were supposed to be bigger than The Beatles. It was nuts. For about a month, anyway...

Yeah, that's a great movie. "Inconceivable!" is still a word that in our house can only be said that one certain way (defiant, with just a little bit of spit). And will usually get the "I do not think that word means what you think that it means" Montoya response.

"Half of it's you, half is me Half of it's you, half is me" That part reminds me of something Jeff said in an interview where music (or art of any form) is half what the artist intended, and half what the listener/viewer interprets it as. What you as the listener does with the song is half the art. The "meaning" of a song depends half on the listener; it's half a blank canvas. I liked that part. Also, the "sun gets passed, sea to sea" to me sounds like days / time going by.

I think we had fun with this about a year ago, but my favorite two are : "What would you do with a brain if you had one?" (Wizard of Oz, also overheard on a random wiretap on Washington, DC) "Put... zee candle... back" (Young Frankenstein)

I refuse to believe that either Louisville or North Carolina are as good as their thumpings yesterday would indicate. Top 3 games to watch this weekend... Memphis / Mich St Xavier / WVU UCLA / WKU (At least I hope that one's a good game...)

Another OT game... Marquette & Stanford both hanging tough. Xavier / WVU is going to be a GREAT game next weekend.

WV playing tough in the first half. I still think they have a shot at winning this game.

I thought Clemson would advance a little more also. Great game, Sooie. Good luck with UNC.

Miss St looked awfully good in that comeback. They'll give Memphis some trouble. Vandy was just overrated. Siena shot lights out for a while, too.

Heckuva day in Tampa. edit: Vandy's the next victim. You heard it here first.

That was some shot...
