Thursday, April 30, 2009. Self-Absorbed Chatter of the Year Award. I was reading Tom Boswell's Washington Post chat this afternoon and came across this gem:. 160;Tom, I will be celebrating a good friend's 50th birthday tomorrow at Nationals Park. So I'll be recording the Caps game at home. Is there any way to let the Nationals staff know to PLEASE not give Caps updates on the board or over the loudspeaker during the game? 160;I'll be interested to see how they handle this. Second, what the hell? You woul...

Wednesday, April 01, 2009. Say It Ain't So, Wily Mo. From the field, in the direction of the ladies. Wily's success with these ladies was equal to his success on the field, though, as it soon became evident that the gals were asking him to get Ryan Zimmerman's attention for them. And he tried, but Zim professionally kept his eyes field-forward. Good for Zim, bad for Wily, who never really seemed like he was in it for anything other than the money. And, he had hoped, the ladies. View my complete profile.

Thursday, April 23, 2009. S Future May Be Short. The folks at The Big Lead. Directed me to this. Article the other day, which notes 12 major brands that could disappear, Circuit City-style, sometime soon. It's a pretty interesting list, it includes Borders (I've spent many a lunch-hour at the L St., N.W., branch, and still remember when it opened and will be sad if it closes), Saturn (I owned one three or four cars ago) and Crocs ( nicely done, Mr. Cank.

tadcranky: January 2009
http://tadcranky.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 28, 2009. Yesterday, amidst the hoopla of the Rob Dibble announcement, something of true significance happened. The great writer John Updike died. When I was in college, I had this bad habit of going to the library to actually study for my classes, but instead ending up roaming the fiction aisles, and reading novels. That's how I discovered John Updike (so it turns out, it wasn't such a bad habit). I never found the clip, but I was reading Henry Allen's story. Tuesday, January 27, 2009.

Friday, April 17, 2009. Marley and Me and Family Guy. Not to get all. Ish, but my dog Willie and I have recently finished our first shot at obedience training. Willie is a very high-spirited young dog, so I wasn't quite sure how this was going to work. At obedience training graduation, we were to have our dogs do a trick. I set my goal for this low, unlike some better-trained pups that I am aware of. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Ed's dog's blog - Winnie.

Wednesday, April 29, 2009. Sorry State of DC Sports Radio in the Morning. You would think that a city like Washington would have some good sports radio that you could listen to as you go to work. Or any localized sports radio at all. Last night was a big night in DC, the Caps won a seventh game. I know that the sports station formerly known at WTEM (WESPNDCDANSNYDER or something now) doesn't have a morning show, they run the syndicated. I figured, maybe I'm wrong on. Used to be the. At this point, I knew...

Monday, July 30, 2007. AFLAC Trivia Gone Whacky. I was watching the Braves-Diamondbacks game Friday night. About halfway through, it was time for the AFLAC Trivia Question, always a highlight for me. On a good night scanning through Extra Innings, I might hit five different AFLAC Trivia Questions. Great stuff. Until Friday. We were asked to "name nine players who were not All-Stars in their MVP Seasons.". That was the best they could come up with? Tuesday, July 17, 2007. Death of the Page Number. This is...
