Experts are gay, and This kid knows luck




Objectively speaking, this isn't all that interesting. But it's hilarious to see a kid "appear" to be an "expert" on the NCAA bracket on television. I wonder who this other guy who picked the sweet sixteen was.

The Big Aristotle?


Shaq has so many nicknames. Based on this photo, you could call him "Child Crusher" since he mercilessly squashed Toby for neglecting to wear his Suns jersey. I am happy the Suns won today (and that I got to watch) and that they wore jerseys that said "LOSS" on them (los suns). Against the Spurs, no less. Hey, anyone spot John McCain courtside? That's where I'd like him to stay: the sidelines.

Mulberria Wiki

Long ago in a seldom-travelled peninsular eden, a small tribe of farmlads began assessing territorial control. Their humble yet dominant civilization was characterized by a unique vernacular, highly specialized war games, clandestine professional sports teams and a population of sentient stuffed animals that achieved movie star status.

Mulberria was the given name to a previously unnamed swath of forest and beach biomes because of one byway that traversed the land named Mulberry Point Road. Where "Mulberry Point" was supposed to be was never discovered. Thus, "Mulberria" took precedence. Important clansmen chiefs included the Keane theocracy, a warrior elf named Duffy, a cross eyed cupcake eater named Harris, Two Dietz serfs (one dominant, the other whiny), and the O'Toole landfill hobbits who were really too small to have any power whatsoever until the rest either were killed, imprisoned or had moved away.

Not much is known of Mulberria in common history. Legend of a shape-bending "predator" which roamed the land hunting tribesfellows is a common story. Warring tribes in nearby lands were known to have "less-than-capable" athletes, which would explain Mulberria's far-reaching iron fist of control. Though unproven in achaeological record, Mulberrians were known to be undefeated in all athletic contests. Mulberrians were also known for their penchant for creating and acting in their own films, though the whereabouts of records and tapes are not known.

Major Historical Landmarks of Mulberria include the Field of Reeds on Tuttle's Point where many Mulberrian warrior carcasses had been discovered, an abandoned baseball card business in a treehouse as well as an abandoned bait shop ravished by raccoons, a battered fence with an incalculable amount of soccerball imprints, a stone trench filled with gold and imagination, several athletic fields, an abandoned garage filled with paint buckets and a 1932 edition of the Boy Scout handbook, and Stunt Mountain, where it was fabled that certain Mulberrians would prove their fortitude by sledding down its steep, rocky slopes in a yellow plastic contraption.

Mulberrians were scattered in the year 1995 after the collapse and migration of the Keane Theocracy. Their established and kind method of rule had become so comfortable that the remaining clansmen were incapable of recovering. Many perished. Today Mulberria lays buried under the heartless march of "progress" as many modern developers have stripped the land of its charm and colored it lame. The land is rich with memory and potential for a new culture to, once again, be "precipitous," to use a Mulberrian term.

I got married yesterday.
No biggie.



Back on duty today, though.
