The High Heat

Story from MLB.COM about naked Grady Sizemore pics floating around the net: What does Sizemore's GM think about naked Grady internet pics? It seems that it's not just the ladies who go for Grady!

I bought the tc (almost paid for now!) and it's great: All the freebies, plus a (sporty) Camry engine. My sister bought a year-old Camry a few months ago. Her husband went in prepared. The salesman started to bullshit him, but my brother-in-law laid the numbers on him and told the salesman to get back to him if he wanted to make a sale; then he left. The salesman called back the same night and gave in to my brother-in-law's expectations. I'm sure the Fort Worth area has plenty of competetion. Remind them of that and be willing to go elsewhere without hesitation.

Mama!

If I'm reading about Dylan I want it written by Dylan. This way I'll know I'm being put-on by the master of the put-on.

I read this a few months ago. The Harpers Ferry capture is riveting. I read alot about slavery and I believe John Brown was a necessary evil/terrorist/martyr/psycho/whatever,etc. Slavery would have probably lasted until the turn of the century if not for him.

One minor league game I attended: The son of former major leaguer Barry Foote was playing, above-weight, shall we say, and was being razzed for his roundness the whole game. Come the eighth inning, he was pulled for a pinch runner about two seconds after the stadium announcer declared that all remaining hot dogs would be half-price. He received holy hell as he wobbled off the field. The crowd ate this all up, of course. It would have been more humorous to me if Barry Foote himself wasn't sitting a couple rows in front of me.

Happiness is a Warm Gun It's All Too Much

Three times I got this far on a Sam Roberts Band album before quitting on it. The friend who lent it to me said I could have it if I liked it. To his chagrin, I returned it.

THIS I am looking forward to!

Wolfgang's Vault also has a free iPhone app.

Relationship consummated!

Maybe you should buy them at the ballpark.

Will you buy my lottery tickets for me?

I've taken to skipping Lay Lady Lay when it starts to play. I don't really care for it, nor do I understand the love for it.

"Let go my hand. I found me a cigarette."

All your new daily threads (some self-serving for your own band) on the Wilco fan board and you don't purchase their new album? Where's the mutual support?

His autobiography is well worth reading, too. A regular Forrest Gump this guy is, musically speaking.

Dude's got an awesome swing! Recored 94 hits in Aug/Sept.

Million dollar cars can't swim. and a Russian delicacy: Shish-ka-Bob!

First time I saw Glenn Beck I thought it was a backstage professional wrestling interview.

Gospel, ironically.

Death Cab for Cutie is whiny drivel and Ben Folds can't sing worth a shit.
