It was mentioned, so it automatically overrides every other possible clever theme.

Read it, don’t read it, I don’t care…just needed to get some things off my chest.

In no particular order of chronology or importance…

Not on the clock.  Not an airplane rant.  Evening rant.  Semi speed version.  Let’s turn and burn.

  1. Greetings and salutations, people.  Thanks for coming aboard (the boat).  Lost blog list on Friday or not, I have recreated a fun list for today.  I feel the need.  The need for speed.
  2. This will be a mixed bag. Some will be one sentence hooks, and some will be whatever.  Because I am extremely mature these days and did NOT go to Panic today the day before the last two days of the quarter, I have been productive and now I just have to do my usual lists and blog.
  3. I can’t watch True Detective as Lindsey is at Lala’s.  
  4. I don’t go anywhere on Sunday evenings, but the last time I did, it was Lala’s. Great Sunday deal.
  5. On editing, I FINALLY changed it from the dinosaur flicks.  Found Top Gun.  Done and done.  
  6. I watched and made notes the entire first round of the NBA draft and then lost my blog list.
  7. While I was being productive today, and being that the sports world is dead right now, I had on in the background the Fab 5 30 for 30, the Laettner 30 for 30, and I am on the last part of Lost World.   I am hoping to find Rocky IV when I check the remote.  
  8. There are situations and stories that suck me in, and all I really ask in life is that people don’t send me stories about Iverson making a comeback based on 2009 stories.  I admit to getting tricked for about 30 minutes.  
  9. If anyone cares, I have survived my 109th Widespread Panic show. Lindsey’s first.  It was a “staple” show, as she got many of the songs out of MY sweet spot but that everyone else likes AND Traffic Low Spark at the end.  Boom goes the dynamite.  
  10. I changed shirts after the 4th song at the concert because I was “feeling” a different song. They played Love Tractor two songs later.  
  11. Porch Song went down today (going on right now) second out of the gate, and I am watching the set list making sure I am not missing something legendary.
  12. Which I probably am.
  13. I have “Breckenridge sarcastic guys” on my blog list but don’t remember what that was about. You Breckenridge peeps are off the hook.
  14. I am not sure if I gave a bunch of people my blog card last night, and most people at Panic aside from me don’t care about sports, but my readership is off the hook today.
  15. I want to say thank you again for anyone who reads this thing. I pour my heart into it.
  16. The Jurassic Park theme and the Tin Cup theme are both very catchy. Been humming the dinosaur one all day.  
  17. Hey, Avery, call your mom so I don’t get texted during the four song encore for Panic.
  18. The Urban Slide was fun, and maybe even worth the $8 admission fee. I will say that if you didn’t get a good jump start, you wasted your money.  I got a solid start.  All good.  
  19. Derek will never read this ever, but I would like to say thank you to him and Kendra for giving me a place to hang once a year, every year, at the Panic shows.
  20. Why am I watching Lost World right now? I think it is because I remember so little about it that it is almost new to me.   Plus, Goldblum is so the man.  
  21. Not sure why the Nance-Kobe thing got so much pub being that it was 2012, but I guess we do need stories while we wait around for college football to start.
  22. Start getting excited-betting lines for week 1 are now out.
  23. If someone can tell me why a punter is making QB comparisons to cars, then you know more than me.
  24. But, yes, IF a punter would make those comments, I guess it should be the most badass one in the league.  
  25. Yes, Joe. I KNOW LeBron is coming back to Cleveland, but there ARE more classy ways of coming back.
  26. And it IS the day after Panic and the Urban Slide, meaning I am not the sharpest knife in the drawer today.
  27. I feel like the ref from the Bradley fight. 10 seconds.
  28. Take your time. Think about it.    I always have a point.
  29. Brazil lost to Paraguay, but not sure if I care unless it is Euro or WC.
  30. Lindsey has a bunch of gay friends, and I really love them all. Funny thing she sent me.  agenda Capture
  31. When I was watching the 30 for 30’s today, I remember knowing that the UK-Duke game was the best game ever as SOON as the game was done.  
  32. I feel like I am the non basketball, less good looking, less successful version of Christian Laettner.
  33. What is the over/ under that Michael Beasley gets to Miami on a FOURTH stint?
  34. What a red flag, wasted top draft pick THAT was.
  35. Yes, I mean a “top flight” pick. I am very aware he went second.
  36. One Arm Steve just went down at Panic, still in first set.  This means 3 of my top 10 songs all have already gone down.  I hope they SUCK in the second set.  Which they won’t.  My fantasy football name is One Arm Steve.
  37. If you care, Porch Song, One Arm Steve, and Can’t Get High.
  38. Speaking of wastes of talent, Ubaldo Jimenez is FINALLY starting to show the skill set he actually has. Under the radar, the Baltimore pitcher is 3-0 in his last 7 decisions and has not lost since May 16th.  Tell your friends.
  39. Not sure when I am going to Water World, but it will be soon.  
  40. Panic notes. I still do the show better than you can even imagine.  Nothing ever goes wrong for me at Panic.  If I need a shirt, I snap my fingers and it is there.  We needed a cab.  I snapped my fingers and it was randomly there.  Amazing that a dude with no real friends is the best person to hang out with during the best band on earth.  Show #109 completed.  I only cry during one song during shows, and I knew Pilgrims was off the board before going in.  Changed my outfit also.  I could have done today, but glad I am on my couch.  I can’t believe I used to do all three nights-I was nuts.
  41. Now I remember why I never watched this crap again. The freaking dinosaur is eating red lights and attacking buses.
  42. Oh, sorry.   JJ.  Pops.  Mild though.
  43. I made fun of the gamer guy, “Faker.” But now that I have read the article, kind of cool.  
  44. But I will never play video games ever by myself to entertain myself. Pick and choose your immaturity battles.
  45. I don’t drink coffee either.
  46. Think about it…
  47. Including today, I am in the ballpark of about 250 times I have purchased and FINISHED an Easy Cheese bottle.  
  48. I will save my NBA draft notes until tomorrow.
  49. The walk of atonement was a body double?  WHHHHHHAAAATTTT?  Now I really need to see what she is packing.
  50. I have “airwolf” on my list. For you long time readers, you know I am the biggest Airwolf and Jan Michael Vincent fan of all time.  AND, that helicopter could STILL kick the shit out of anything in the air today.  Screw you, Blue Thunder.  
  51. I accidentally said something brilliant the other day, and mean it with all of my heart. My boss made a joke about me going to UVA because I made a “I am dumb” comment.  Then, I said what is true.  “I make jokes about me being dumb, as it makes my conversations shorter with people.  I know I am smart and pick and choose when to exemplify that trait.”
  52. Lindsey’s friend, John, randomly went to WSP this weekend and didn’t let me know. So, I plan on going to a Green Bay Packers game and not tell him this fall.  Odd dude.
  53. When asking someone what their favorite movie is, be careful how you say it. I have three classifications.  “Highest quality movie, favorite movie, and movie you can watch over and over and over if you were on a deserted island that oddly had a DVD player.”
  54. My new friend Phil says “Orange County, any Harry Potter, any Indiana Jones.” I have “Top Gun, Princess Bride, and a tie between any Bourne and Rounders.”  
  55. I unfortunately can’t tell you WHY I now have this nickname so I guess this is a tease, but I am now Markel Bolton and am NOT proud of it.  Apparently, I look like the guy.  
  56. Stanton being out sucks for baseball, but I think it might hurt his cause when they are deciding between Bryce and him for NL MVP.
  57. Melo is frustrated.   I don’t even feel like making jokes after that statement, but I DO think Phil screwed him a bit.
  58. Draft pick is good for 3 years from now, not now. Melo has a four year deal.  Not good.  
  59. I was finally happy with the Phils manager and now he resigns because he has no talent.
  60. Pretty damn badass that Scherzer made it through 6 innings trying to throw two consecutive no hitters.
  61. I wish they would stop telling us random Michigan football stories.
  62. I don’t trust or like Michael Sam anymore. Why did he LEAVE and then come back?    We all loved you, but you just look weird now.
  63. Have I ever mentioned Dokken is like the greatest band ever?  
  64. He overdubbed, but George Lynch was simply DIRTY on the guitar.
  65. If you look at the stats on Everyday Companion, it will blow your mind how someone has that much free time.
  66. In case you never guessed it, Bill Walton WAS at the recent Dead show.  bill-Capture
  67. I can eat Mac and Cheese at any hour of any day, and am pretty bitter that I JUST got into breakfast mac and cheese.
  68. Lindsey won a prize for carrying Visine on her person at a bar, and she only won a Capri Sun. She doesn’t like them, and I am the lucky guy who gets to drink it tomorrow.  
  69. I just noticed Jurassic Park has a dude who does import/ export. Too many Seinfeld jokes.  
  70. I had a guy write me “girl, crazy, long story.” I wrote him back that describes like half of life.
  71. That is it. Hope you enjoyed or are at least more informed.  Will I blog tomorrow?  That is a CLOWN question, bro.
