Banner 17 on the horizon?

Ok, well as many of you who enjoy basketball and professional sports may know, the 2007-2008 Celtics is an entirely different team than the baby Celts of yesteryear. I mean, let's see... we still have... Paul Pierce. Oh, yeah, plus Leon Powe, Kendrick Perkins, and Rajon Rondo. Plus Tony Allen. Kandi Man is listed as a free agent, so that only gives us 5 of the same guys from last year. The new additions? How does Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, James Posey, Eddie House, and Scot Pollard sound? Plus, tack on Big Baby Davis from LSU and a couple other newbies and we have ourselves a motherfucking contender! We still need a veteran PG to help guide Rondo in what could be the biggest season of his career, despite the fact that he's only a "sophomore". A backup Center would be great, as well. Obviously, Mutombo is still on the free agency, and Chris Webber is somewhere out there... I can't imagine why these guys wouldn't want to jump onto the Celtics ship at this point in their careers... but we shall see. But yeah, another difference between this season and the past few seasons? This team will be good. No, scratch that. This team will potentially be, dare I say, unbelievable. We will be able to go places the C's haven't been to in nearly 20 years with this team. I cannot wait for the season to start, and look forward to watching the Celtics on national TV (a major change from the past few seasons!)
News flash: Incubus freaking rocks! Why have I not realized that until now??? I always liked Incubus, but never realized how damn good they were, nor how many excellent songs they have produced... from the impeccable vocals, the excellent musicianship, and the superb lyrics (which I seem to connect well with on many levels), Incubus has easily placed themselves in the upper echelon of modern day rock bands. It's just too bad they won't be rolling around anywhere within like 2000 miles of me for at least another touring season.

Miss Teen USA 2007 - South Carolina answers a question



wow.

Miss South Carolina has teh smartz... not really.

So yesterday my roomie showed me a hilarious youtube clip of Miss South Carolina trying to answer a simple enough question. The question was: "Recent polls have shown a fifth of Americans can't locate the U.S. on a world map. Why do you think this is?" Her answer?

Look, it's the "I'm bored and have nothing better to do with my time" blog!

Hello, everyone.

This marks my first endeavor into the so-called "blogosphere," as all of the media pundits like to refer it. Hopefully, this will be a fruitful and exciting experience for not only me, but you as the reader. My plan is to keep a steady watch on global news, business, sports, and even weather reports, and then throw in some opinion, about a half cup of good humor (and possibly even some bad humor if I receive any nasty comments on my blog), and maybe even a pinch of overly dramatic emphasis (y'know the deal... every blogger has to pull out the "my life is in shambles" rant at least once). But seriously, I don't plan on being one of those cliché bloggers who does nothing but whine about how their personal lives are going downhill... does it mean I don't have personal problems that I'd love to spill out every once and a while? No, of course not! I just know that it wouldn't make for a professional blog, nor would anyone care to read about it. But anyway, hopefully you will find this to be a rewarding blog to read... oh yeah, and leave me some love! (< comments)
