The sun just came out in the valley. A nice blessing. Too bad I’m too busy boiling quills off the wookie skull for to mount it. Too bad I don’t have a tank of maggots to do the job for me.

It shows that you care about your extended family and friends. You didn’t know Whitney.

Baalke, Harbaugh, and Paraag Marathe (sp?) are kicking ass and taking names.
More details on the Smith contract are out now, too. They’ve basically put in easy outs EVERY YEAR, it’s like three consecutive 1 year deals lumped together — compared to the Fitzpatrick, Sanchez, and even Flynn contracts… they’re just doing it better than everybody else is right now.
And I have to say: mikev is one of my favorite people on here

I have kids, right? I like to see them. SOmetimes (all the time) I choose to see them at regular time, like after work) and forgo the work I have to do when the 5 o clock whistle blows.
So I have a trial next week and need to finish up my pretrial motions by 11 today. (PDT). SO I decide to hang out with the family like normal, fall asleep with teh kids get up around 2 or so and finish my motions. so, when does the modem crap out? that’s right 3 am.
Good to know: tech support is much quicker at 4 AM than 4 PM.
the law talking guys that make it are the guys that get in their pretrial motions at any time. get home at 5pm, get up at 2. that’s why there ain’t a law talking guy i know that don’t take double espressos.

It’ll be time soon to start looking for a new one.

"There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want"
If you’re like me and not on Twitter he’s just another pitcher who’ll soon be traded. I care about the A’s for Jemile Weeks and Yoenis Cespedes and that’s it.
Finally finished Mass Effect 3 and I loved it right up until the last 10 minutes which made no sense whatsoever. I think I’ll just pretend they never happened.
I have no problems with a non-happy ending in fact I always expected that it would end on a sad note but I was hoping the ending would have some logic to it and be satisfying.
All that said I still loved the journey of playing all 3 games these last 5 years.
ME3 has the best character moments of the series but I liked the gameplay of ME2 better. Of course that all depends on how you play the game as it’s different for everyone depending on your style, the back story of your character and the choices you’ve made the previous two games.
I played it as a paragon soldier who always tried to do the right thing so pretty much everyone wanted to work with me.
I know you never come around attijah but I told you I’d watch the first episode of Supernatural which I gather was one of you favorite shows and I did. In fact we watched 3 of them on Netflix and it was fun. Kind of a CW version of The X-Files.
i thought of atti just now because i was watching the 2003 clincher against the rangers and she gave me that tape. i’m supposed to digitize it and a bunch others.
*i’m* AV. alex vause. put this loon in psych before she hurts someone.
So sweet to beat Ol’ Roy to get to the Final Four….is he crying yet? He always liked to cry when his KU teams went out way before they were supposed to. To this I say suck it Fog Hog Leghorn.

Then he pulls out a baseball glove.)

Is it bad that my first thought on reading the news about Whitney Houston was “I hope Jennifer had atherosclerosis in the ER pool”?
That wasn’t even an option. :(
Cocaine induced MI was my front runner.
It shows that you care about your extended family and friends. You didn’t know Whitney.
And besides, it’s been long enough.
did whitney die again? that’s some good coke.
bachelor for the weekend. woo hoo!/boo hoo!
i just cracked a 5th of decent scotch
Let me know when you’ve reached an eighth. I’m a glass half empty kind of guy.
the 8th… i made into butter.
I went fishing today. Then we had the fish for dinner. It was a little too real for me.
Hey! It’s so good to see you. Too bad I need to go to bed. I’m FKing tired. :(
Holy shit.
Niners brought back Ginn and signed Josh Johnson to a 2 year deal. FK yea.
Thanks, and go As.
Holy shitballs.

I still can’t believe how much they’ve already added. We’re one guard away from being significantly more talented (or equal) at each position
Peter Konz in the draft. RG for 2 years and then C after Goodwin’s contract expires.
Thanks, and go As.
I can’t believe they brought Smith back.
#MIB3
I can’t believe they brought the entire franchise back.
#oaklandathletics
I can’t believe I ate the whole thing.
What did the Marlins get in exchange?
An open DL slot, to be filled later.
i REALLY WISH SHIT WOULD WORK WHEN i AM ON A DEADLINE

what’s that “modem” you are talking about?
there are other ways?

mmmm espresso

Operation slow down begins
Nah, ‘Operation: Do a bitchin job, get a great reference and get the fuck out of Cambridge’ is in full swing.
Or you could pull a Bloom and just add a second job.
It’s a 9-5 job. Screw that.
Bloom needs a second job. Bloom is bored.
Anyone got SF restaurant suggestions — looking for a place that’s nice, but not like UBER expensive/ritzy?
Where in the city?
Anywhere.
What kind of food?
Any kind. Feeling adventurous. :D
How are you planning to eat the food?
With my face.
Matt Carson Face Plant!
Which part of your face?
The part that catches cleats.
What if you tire before it’s done?
Should have been a “when … ” question.
I was just going for the Hudsucker gag.
Then ONLY SADNESS.
Who’s picking up the check?
Me. D:
Yes. Subject to the information requested by (at least) the first couple people.

Oh my god. Thank you for the epic list. Well. This also fills up my future life plans as well. :D
Hope you find a match somewhere. It’s a broad list, so I’m sure some of ’em won’t appeal to you.
I would avoid mission chinese in this regard… no reservations and it will take a while to get seated.
Want to go to flour and water’s pasta class. My recs are on the cheaper side. But this is a good list.
How are you arriving — on foot, PT, car? From where?
We’ve got a car + driver for the night.
how many people?
4.
What animals do they look like?
One looks like a kitty. One looks kind of like a tarsier. The other looks like Sexiness.
I apparently look like a cocker spaniel. :(
If they were board games, which would they be?
Mystery Date, LotR-Edition Trivial Pursuit, Mousetrap, and something adorable that involves bunnies.
I don’t know how to feel about this.
… funny?
i for one feel funny.
For one, you feel funny. For two, you feel just about right.
…are you two dating now?
(i’ve been wondering the same thing myself.)
Are we invited?
FK no.
I am one with unfathomable sadness.
I’m confused. Are we invited for dinner with no fk after? Or is it just the dinner we’re not invited?
Pics or it never happened!
Do you want to be surrounded by people like DFA, or by people like monkeyball?
I’m not sure I should be around hipsters if I’m not in Florida.
stay the fuck out of Florida.

Aren’t you glad you asked?
Greens is a favorite.

Is Nam Yen’s still around? That was a great place for a family.
You, sir, are an officer and a gentleman.
And a monkey.
Gracias. :D

Define cheap?
Places I use for dates with my budget:
00 and B Star
Is this the right place to admit that I literally have no idea who is on this team anymore?
Brandon McCarthy. Some other guys.
That’s all I know.
Is that the tall bloke with the mildly amusing twitter account?
If you’re like me and not on Twitter he’s just another pitcher who’ll soon be traded. I care about the A’s for Jemile Weeks and Yoenis Cespedes and that’s it.
I’m on twitter, but I never tweet.
I have several friends on it but I still don’t get it. I’m a tool though as I’m not on FB either and I can barely turn on my cell phone and computer.
news /comedy/baseball. Don’t send messages, except to tell pam to drink more coffee
So I see the lounge is hopping like normal. Is this thing going to pick up next week with actual games or is it dead?
So google chrome won’t work and on IE9 it won’t show updates on FK….I hate computers.
firefox.
Finally finished Mass Effect 3 and I loved it right up until the last 10 minutes which made no sense whatsoever. I think I’ll just pretend they never happened.

All that said I still loved the journey of playing all 3 games these last 5 years.
I just started last night. It hasn’t won me yet, but I do remember some of the annoying features of the last one.
ME3 has the best character moments of the series but I liked the gameplay of ME2 better. Of course that all depends on how you play the game as it’s different for everyone depending on your style, the back story of your character and the choices you’ve made the previous two games.
I played it as a paragon soldier who always tried to do the right thing so pretty much everyone wanted to work with me.
I switched to renegade in ME2. Was a sniper there but am now the multi-weapon biotic person
I’ve heard bad things. I haven’t played it yet. Spoil it and I will end you and all those you hold dear.
I won’t spoil the ending and again the game story is different on how you play it so I couldn’t anyway.
I know what everyone wants to talk about is my fantasy baseball draft on Sunday.
You should draft the player who embodies the most maximum VORP!
So what the heck is a dow virgin noodle?
I would hate it if thos theard dies and nobody noted in regards to the title:
OH BONDAGE, UP YOURS
R.I.P.
I know you never come around attijah but I told you I’d watch the first episode of Supernatural which I gather was one of you favorite shows and I did. In fact we watched 3 of them on Netflix and it was fun. Kind of a CW version of The X-Files.
I like it. Not enough to know when its on, or which one is sam and which one is dean. but its watchable
i thought of atti just now because i was watching the 2003 clincher against the rangers and she gave me that tape. i’m supposed to digitize it and a bunch others.
yes, you are. Per our agreement.
i know…
MAKE IT HAPPEN.
Alrighty then….bye.
i ♥ spanish tapas. and you.
Finally got round to watching Moneyball on a lazy Saturday afternoon. It’s bittersweet considering how much the team sucks now.
is anyone here?
I am! Getting ready to watch the A’s vs the Hanshin Tigers — oh no, I forgot, it’s NOT ON TV. or radio.
heart break, i tell you.
But at least we have Gameday!
Justin.tv as long as it lasts…
OOH~ I just saw this on FB. Honto ni arigato!
The feed has been up and good quality for the first 2-1/2 innings. Quick history lesson on the A’s:
Fair number of empty seats in the Dome.
It’s Monday afternoon and there’s no Ichiro. Watching some of the M’s game last night, the Japanese see these games as the ICHIRO SERIES.
Ross getting hit pretty hard here.
But at least our offense is in midseason form.
And it’s Hanshin playing in Tokyo….if they’d been in Osaka it might have been easier for fans to get out of work.
It was a bit of them to play Wipe Out!
A bit mean, I meant,
A’s should feel right at home.
They shoulda tarped it.
ZOOKI-SAN!!
Can I just say I love daddy-daughter days.
Wes Timmons sighting.
Ugh, it’s blurry, but the best I could grab quickly. Edit: a little better pic for the Timmons fans.
They should be wearing the real major league uniforms for these games. Those jerseys are embarrassing.
Damn that was an ugly throw by Cowgill.
Japanese television clearly considers Billy the only recognizable personality affiliated with the A’s.
Unless they think it’s Brad Pitt.
They seem to like Weeks and Suzuki too.
Rock Chalk, Jayhawk….GO KU!
So sweet to beat Ol’ Roy to get to the Final Four….is he crying yet? He always liked to cry when his KU teams went out way before they were supposed to. To this I say suck it Fog Hog Leghorn.
A Final Four trip will help ease the pain of the A’s losing 95 games and the Raiders going 6-10 this year.
FDLS pitching – great balls of fire.
He consistently hit 152 on the radar gun, with one pitch at 154.
And one pitch hitting the radar gun.
Well, it’s been fun.
That Xanax ad was hilarious.
(apparently, Xanax is a sporting goods manufacturer in Japan. For some reason, they decided to do their ad in English, and it featured a small boy and a kindly old shopkeeper.
Small boy: (Looking over display) Do you have any Xanax?
Kindly old shopkeeper: (Chuckles and reaches under counter) You certainly have good taste for someone your age.
Then he pulls out a baseball glove.)
Nice.
