failure

Naturally, if you read this book and fall asleep, you're not cut out for a career in political theory.

Very clever. Curly brackets! Because it's a genealogy!

But what if you read this book and angrily pace around the room because you can't understand half of it? Well, my guess is that you've got the temperament, but the jury is still out on the ability.

ditriech:
This Week: 17-10 (.629)
Last Week: 11-5-1 (.647)
Rolling 3 Week: 40-22-1 (.634)

Random Numbers:
This Week: 11-16 (.407)
Last Week: (Who knows)
Rolling Three Week: (Who knows)

H2H (ditriech-RN-push)
This Week: 7-3
Last Week: (Who knows)
Rolling Three Week: (Who knows)

Ok, Right now I have no idea what the rolling 3 week for RN is. I mean, I could theoretically go back and find it. And I probably will. But the problem is that for two weeks I didn't do dvn. And for one of those I don't even have spreads for. So it's a lot more work than it should be.

But that's not what you're here for. You, Dutch (I say Dutch because he is the only one reading this), are here for who got the rabbit. And, the short answer is pretty much the entire Big Ten. And ditriech for that matter. I mean, I took Nevada out of pure spite for frack's sake. So for that I'll make amends next week. Hopefully. We'll see.

Anyhoo, full rabbit day below the fold.

Four out of five eunuchs agree that timing is everything.

Since the internet has returned to my life, I've become just as unproductive as the last period in my life with the internet: I enjoy checking my spam email to see if there's anything worth reading. Sometimes this causes me to pose existential, or at least corporeal, questions.

Is it really desirable to increase the size of one's nether regions? I don't mean genitalia, I mean the entirety of the nether regions.¹ Because if you think so, then I've got something I should forward to you.

Your "passive observer" voice is so lame, you're being used as a free marketing service.

I don't know who the fuck "Crazzy Eve" is, but if CNN weren't so Fail for broadcasting his guileless act, and his magic-of-the-internet bullshit, I'd want to stab him in the face.

As it is, my imaginary stabbing hand is busy.

CNN ...

I know I can look away. I know I don't have to care. But everyone links to you. You have such entrenched market share. And you're so BAD at what you do. And you're so lazy about the badness that it's like a style. Somewhere there is a CNN house style guide. It is written in red crayon.

1) Attention-getting image!

2) Live before anyone else.

3) Space filled with words of some kind. That's where ads go!

4) White women may be *raped* young people may do *drugs* pie and cotton may cause *cancer* fighter airplanes *blow stuff up* young people may be *raped* fighter airplanes may cause *autism* pie and cotton might *blow up*

5) Bar graph.

6) Typo.

7) Whippets: the silent scourge.

8) If Madonna stays out of court for even a week, this scroll bar thing is fucked.

9) Cholesterol: heartbreak's lubricant

10) TEEN SEX and how it can be prevented if you just talk to your kids about TEEN SEX then they'll understand how you're not mentally ready for them to grow pubic hair and CNN said their HOT FUMBLING TEEN SEX is your fault for not being a good enough parent to catch the SWEATY SHIRTLESS TEEN SEX before it made you ashamed.

11) Cinnamon: cancer's walking stick

12) More typos.

13) Nancy Grace flat out kills a bitch.

Today's CRIA won't be written.

Ok, it isn't totally MR WAD's fault. But it didn't help any.

For the last time people, THIS WASN'T ME.

Though it did put this music into my head.

At least one person I know will go out this way. That or I get about three grogs deep and jump into a Medieval Times show. I think these days you get some kind of high score for landing "halberd" in your coroner's report.

But seriously. No outrage is allowed here. If you wave a huge gun around at the police, and refuse to drop it, and act crazy, the proper thing is that you get shot. That's what we have police FOR. Directing traffic, handing out drunk in public tickets to cofabg writers, and shooting you. That you trigged their Call of Duty reflexes is a footnote.

I mean, way to ruin all their future fun.

I financed a Subaru this month. Because we here at COFABG love to stay topical.

So now this is happening.

I will quiz the Claut on this by New Years.

I know what you're thinking, "Wow, they finally made it to 500 posts!". This is a lie. There is no spoon. For some reason, when I updated all the posts to have the author's name, I missed one of mine. This is post 501. Which, for me, is fitting I guess.

Wait. That's not what you're thinking? Huh. You want to know where in the good gorram I've been and what in the good gorram have I been up to?

Odd. Its not like this is a way for me to communicate my thoughts and such with the entire world (wide web) or something right.

Oh. Wait. It is.

So, I've been busy. Doing ditriech-esqe things. You know, figuring out how to steal the rest, deciding on whether or not I should move home, throwing hotel parties with random people I meet on the street, sleeping in post offices and/or floors, drinking, and writing.

...

So most of that isn't true. But, I assure you, I'm doing well. Thinking about important things (liek mudkips) like what the hell is going to happen to the 07 Jack Daniels Chevy Impala (nee Monte Carlo)^sd1 with this whole GM thing. Really, that worries me. I mean, yeah everyone else is talking about the economy, so I need to worry less about that. But what about the NASCAR? Seriously. Don't the Southern Republican Senators think about this?

Anyhoo, there are (mtl) stories to come about what dits^sd2 has been up to the past three weeks, though I can almost guarantee that almost none of them will make it on cofabg^sd3.

In fact, the only reason I wrote this post is because of the whole NASCAR thing, which I thought of this morning while I was working on PRJ Biggoron.^sd4. So I'ma go do what I do. Which is, you know, work.

Out.

sd1: I think I may be the only person in the Beirut fan, NASCAR, Black Venn Diagram. In fact, I sometimes believe that I try to be the only person in Venn Diagrams because it amuses me so.

sd2: pronounced "deets". Someone called me that once in IRC and I liked it. Sorta like kissing girls I guess.

sd3: Perhaps 2160, but I doubt that as well.

sd4: Well, that, and to share the story about how I had a dream that Drew Carey was the Rep from OH-11, somehow got banned from Congress and I had to replace him. This is the second time I've had that dream.
